Chapter 2
"Nooooo!" screamed Tyson. "My fans are waiting!"
The Blade breakers were now safely back in their hotel room. Tyson was still on an adrenalin high, needing the attention. Kai had just about had enough.
"Tyson, this is the last time. SHUT-UP!" Kai glared down at him where he was currantly laying on the floor, trapped underneath Max. "Come on Ty, Mr Dickenson said we had to stay put until they rounded up all the members of Biovolt."
"Max!" Whined Tyson, eyelids fluttering wildly. "I can't let them down, my fans can't get enough of me!"
There was a knock at the door, "Pizza! Pizza delivery."
Tyson's eyes lit-up and he gasped out, "FOOD!" Pushing Max off him, Tyson was up and out of the door before anyone could stop him!
"Hn." Grunted Kai, following.
How does he do it? Kai wondered. How can he be so imature? He's a World Champion Beyblader, and a World Class Idiot. Ha, he can't even keep out of trouble...
"Oooffff...oh man, the pizza!" The kid delivering the pizza had been knocked over when Tyson crashed straight into him. They were now both on the floor covered in pizza, and tangled up in each others arms and legs as they tried to get up.
"Damn it! Get off me will ya?" The pizza boy growled at Tyson. "Why did you charge out the door like that?"
Kai stared at them and lent against the door frame. Max poked his head out of the door. "Whoa, that must feel gross!" and started laughing. Kai smirked at the shocked look on the kids face.
Tyson was devastated. "Damn. What a waste of good food. I'm going to have to go out now to get some more. I can't wait till you come back again, kid." Tyson stated glancing at the kid.
Kenny appeared now wondering what had happened, "Tyson, I think you had better get cleaned up first, you can't go out like that, you'll freeze."
Kai walked back inside followed, by everyone else. The pizza kid left, moaning about bad customers as he trudged down the corridoor.
While Tyson was in the shower, someone knocked on the door again. "That was quick!" Max exclaimed, thinking someone had re-ordered the pizza. "I'll get it." He walked over to open the door. Then stood frozen in place in shock.
"Hello Max." A soft, quiet voice greeted him.
"..TALA!" Max managed to exclaim.
"Well, aren't you going to invite me in?" Tale's deep red eyes bored into Max's. "C..co..come in?" Max found himself inviting Biovolts top Beyblader into the apartment.
Kai was there in an instant when heard Max say Tala's name. "What do you want, Tala?" Giving him a murderous glare while pushing Max behind him.
"The same as you, Kai" Tala's eyes shifted from Max to Kai. Kai narrowed his eyes, "Max go inside. Don't open this door again. Don't let Tyson come out here." Max looked briefly at his captain before hesitantly obeying. "Ok, sure thing, Kai."
Kai stepped out into the corridor, forcing Tala back and effectively shutting the door behind him. "Well Tala, come for payback?"
Tala smiled "I want nothing more than to be free of Boris. I don't like taking orders any more than you do, Kai." Tala looked down the corridoor behind him as if to check if he was being followed. "I want to join the Blade breakers."
Kai caught his breath; this was not what he was expecting. "Why?" Kai eyed Tala suspiciously, neatly folding his arms over his chest.
"I want to know the meaning of friendship, trust and loyalty. Why else?" Tala responded. He folded his arms to mimic Kai.
"Well, let me see, could it have something to do with.." Kai paused "Lets say, stealing Tyson's Bit-beast for yourself?"
Tala laughed, "Like I'll ever get my hands on it! No. Tyson showed me something in that battle. It changed me; he has a special link with his Dragoon. I would never take that away from him."
Kai stared deeply into Tala's eyes, searching for truth or signs of deciet. Better have you where I can see you I guess, thought Kai. "Ok, Tala. But make just one mistake and it will be your last."
Tala grinned inwardly - Im in. "Anything you say, Kai. I promise you I will not take any of your bit-beasts." Both boys nodded in understanding and then Kai unlocked the door and they went in together.

Bryan sat in a cheap hotel room on the other side of the city. Anger was the only emotion he knew. The only emotion he could show. The only way he could act.
"Rei, Rei, Rei,...I know what makes you tick...I know how to get to you...and you will never be whole again."
Brian got off the bed and looked at his watch, "Hmm, should be anytime now..." Smiling in a sinister fashion, he walked out the door.
"Aarrgghh!...What's he doing in here Kai?" Kenny screamed. Panicing he picked up Dizzy, then ran into his bedroom and sat down in front of the door to stop Tala getting in.
"Max, has Tyson come out yet?" Kai demanded after Kenny had deserted them.
"No, I'll go get him." Max answered before moving out the room as well, leaving Kai alone with Tala.
Kai lent on the wall, watching Tala like a hawk as the red haired boy paced slowly round the room.
"So, you're a changed man are you, Kai?" Tala questioned. "A new person, ready to fight with honour." He paused for effect. "Is it so hard to believe that I can change too?"
"Hn.." Was the only response Kai would give him.
Kai glanced at the door from where Max was now returning, "He's just coming, we'll go and get some more food. Don't worry Kai, I'll keep him out of trouble!" Max smiled at Kai, then nervously turned to Tala, "Soooo, what's up?" The blond haired american boy asked.
Tala was just about to answer when...
BOOM
Tyson made his enterance by swinging the door open so hard it slammed into the wall. "Hey guys, the TY-man is up! I'm starving! Come on Maxie, lets go!" Without even seeing Tala standing across the room, Tyson grabbed Max by the arm and they disappeared out the front door like a hurricane.
"Well, looks like someone is hungry." Tala murmured. He looked at the newly showered Tyson with his own hunger. Kai caught the look and vowed not to let Tala alone with Tyson. The blue-haired boy was just so accident-prone. Anything could happen and Kai didn't like the look Tala just gave Tyson. He knew Tala was here for a reason that was anything but good, for anyone but himself.
Tala slid his hand into his pocket and held onto a small device. "So Kai, how is Rei doing?" gently he pushed the button on the device and smirked at Kai while thinking - You have no idea what you have let yourself and team in for Kai, no idea.
