Hi guys! Thanks sooooo much for waiting. I really appreciate it. Well, I've
made my decision. Since I like both Kylie and California, I'm doing both
endings, thanks to kai baby-girl. And since Kylie has more votes, I'm doing
her first.
BUT BUT BUT those endings come in the next two chappies, not this one! So read on, people!
P.S: Merry Christmas everyone! Take this as a present from me!
TO KILL A PART OF YOUR HEART: chapter 9 (finally)
Sheesh people. It's just the lights! Grow up!
Flyer listened to Kylie's report with mild interest at first. He knew her tendency to sneak 'round the alleys and come back to them with little bits of useless information. But that was until he realized the importance of this one.
Leo voiced what he was thinking. "So, do we run or do we wait and see what this is all about?"
Wraithe looked at him. "It'll be smarter to run, but I can tell you guys aren't seriously thinking about it."
"Yea." Kylie said. "We stay."
Flyer stayed silent. He wasn't the one to run, but he had a feeling that this wasn't going to turn out well. But again, taking risks was his way of life. And it wasn't gonna change, no matter how many goddamn cops on their trail.
~~~~~Deeper, Darker, Further into the alleys.~~~~~
Black Neptune worked solo. She didn't belong to any gang, and didn't want to. Motherfuggin' posers, she thought.
Well, big night tonight. And she didn't have much to lose. Lots to gain if everything went well. Get rid of cop, get rid of Stormhawks, and be the top dog of the alleys.
"Yum."
Sounds good. The girl watched the sun. Only a few hours.
~~~~~ Somewhere safer, like a hotel.~~~~~~
Cali sat on Kai's bed. She didn't talk much. But then, neither did anyone else. Each blader had the feeling that tonight wasn't going to pass by as quickly as they hoped. None were looking forward to it, but no one even thought of backing out.
Kai held Dranzer tightly. So tight that the attack ring bit into his flesh. A drop of blood gathered blow his clenched fist. His hand hurt but he couldn't make himself let go. He closed his eyes instead.
A while later he felt someone touching his hand, trying to gently pry it open. He opened his eyes. Not surprisingly, it was Cali. Well duh. If Tyson noticed he'd just shout out, Rei wouldn't do a thing, but just sit there wondering why, Max would go gat a band-aid and Kenny would tell him that he wouldn't be able to beyblade properly if he hurt his hand.
Slowly, he surrendered and opened his fist. God, it was bad. Well, not deadly or anything that would stop him from blading like usual, but he'd used more strength that he meant to. Or had just forgotten how much of it he had.
He put the hand up to his brow.
Cali rolled her eyes. "Sheesh, blood on your head won't help anything, Kai- zer. Gimme that hand, will ya?"
He did.
And, raising a blue eyebrow, asked. "Kai-zer?"
"Well," she said, cleaning the blood off his hand, "you call me Cali, and it reminds me of cauliflower and I don't complain."
"Everyone calls you Cali." Rei grinned slightly. He had been watching them.
"And every time they do, I think of cauliflower."
"But why Kai-zer?" Kai pondered.
"Maybe it matches Dranzer!" Max cried cheerfully.
Rei stopped grinning and, together with Kai, Cali and Kenny (who had looked up from his laptop) growled. "What the hell are you so happy about?"
It stopped Max dead in his tracks. "Sorry. I. jus.just."
"Whatever." Kai looked at the window. The sun was setting.
~~~~~~ Near the alleys~~~~~
Flyer loved the Harley. Yeah, it was stolen, and wasn't theoretically his, but he felt that it was. Probably, he though, I'm more like this baby's owner than the rich big-ass poser who bought the bike itself.
He was waiting at the end of the alley, just outside a busy street. His mind was on the Harley he was sitting on, but his eyes were on the road. And that was enough. When he saw the detective's now-familiar white SUV, he put his foot to the pedal, and, glorying in all that horsepower, sped away. California was taking the roads. He was taking the alleys. And on this ride, he'd get to her destination in half the time.
~~~~~ Nearby.~~~~~
Black Neptune heard the bike as it roared past. Flyer was cute, she thought. Too bad he's a Stormhawk.
Oh well. Let the kid take the alleys. The rooftops were her element like speed was his. She took off, leaping from roof to roof. She loved this, she lived for this. She was this.
~~~~~At the big fat place where all my characters are going.~~~~~
Kylie hoped the 'signals' the spy was meant to give out came from the phone. It lay in the pocket of her blue pants. She was wearing Kai's usual outfit today.
Flyer had sped in and given his report. The cops were coming with the BladeBreakers. All of them, including Kai. Heck, she thought. Flyer and me should have stayed clear of them in the first place. god knows what they've landed themselves into.
But then, she had talked to Kai. And battled him. And kissed him. And taken him out for dinner. Perhaps that was worth it.
Leo stood beside her.
"What are you thinkin' 'bout?"
"Kai." It was useless hiding anything from him.
"He won't get hurt."
"How do you know." She asked.
"I'll make sure of it."
"Leo, since when have you given a damn 'bout him? He's not even a Stormhawk."
"Makes me think," he said. "He'd make a good one. Should we ask him?"
Kylie rolled her eyes. "C'mon, tell me, why do you care 'bout Kai?"
"Because," he paused. "Because you care. And I care about you."
Kylie smiled.
"Tut, tut, tut. Very unKai-like, lil' Kylie."
"Please, Leo, I'm not ten anymore."
"I'm glad 'bout that. Wouldn't like it if I didn't know you could look after yourself tonight."
~~~~In the white SUV~~~~
Cali got Kai to drive, secretly feeling her hands would shake too much.
"So how do we know where to go?" Rei asked. He sat in the back, by the window.
Kai was silent. The SUV had passed Kylie's house.
California sighed. "Well, we track Evan. He's supposed to be near them. I'm picking p his signals. Turn left, Kai."
The SUV rolled silently down the narrow alleys.
"Volkswagen." Kai mumbled.
"What?" asked Cali?
"Nothing. Just noticed this is a VW."
"Oh."
They rode on in silence.
Until a bullet shot through the side window.
