Arguments and Disagreements
ONE WEEK LATER

Misao was settling in to live back in Tokyo, she enjoyed hanging out with her best friends from childhood and Salima and Kane really missed her. She turned out to be a very mixed personality, she liked to beyblade and play computer games and roller blade, but at the same time she liked clothes shopping and general hanging out with friends. Everyone got on with her, and she managed to give Tyson a run for his money by beating him in a Beyblade match with bit beasts. Most of the days when Salima and Kane were busy, she'd hang with Mariah, Rei or the others. She enjoyed hanging with Johnny because she could play tennis with him, and once when stuck with Robert (somehow), she ended beating him in chess. Everyone enjoyed her company and became good friends with her. except Tala that is.

"Mariah, please tell me that you're joking!" said Salima as she talked on the phone to Mariah, Misao was in her bedroom reading a book and also peering over to see what was the matter. From the sounds of the conversation their plans were going to be ruined. "She told me that I didn't have to play in the upcoming competition! Oh! I wish that they would actually give the right information, what is Misao going to do?" Misao's ears pricked up at the mention of her name, yep, their plans were going to be ruined. "Kane's at football, Rei's at basketball, Mariam's training with the Saint Shields, and Johnny's busy with something I don't know what! Tala?!" Misao's face began to turn sour at the very name being mentioned, that inconsiderate jerk had not said a word to her ever since she arrived in Tokyo, and NO WAY was she going to be stuck with him, she would end up talking to the wall which makes much more friendly conversation than he would ever do! "OK," Salima hung up and sighed heavily.

"What's up?" asked Misao, "PLEASE, don't leave me with Tala! I'll suffocate literally,"

"He's not that bad, he's just not exactly a very talkative guy," said Salima, "But there is no one else to leave you with, he's the only local guy,"

"He's not even a guy," said Misao as she rolled her eyes, "He's cyberized,"

"Speaking of which, let's get some ground rules sorted, don't mention a single word about Kai, being cyberized, working for Biovolt or being a Demolition Boy OK? I'm sure you'll get on extremely well," said Salima.

"Really?" asked Misao preoccupied as she began to smile, "I shall have to bear that in mind,"

(~(~(~(~(~(~(

"Explain to me again WHY I ended up babysitting for your friend?" asked Tala as he arrived in Salima's apartment, his cold blue eyes lingering in the general direction of Misao, who just looked at him with her brown eyes. Seeing the look on Misao's face when he ended gave Tala something to secretly smile about and bring amusement to his thoughts. Something about her was extremely amusing, and he hadn't worked it out yet.

"Salima, would you mind explaining to me why I ended up with him!" said Misao in the same tone but this time she smirked at him.

"OK, there is no one else, and besides you haven't got to know each other yet and Misao goes back in about a week's time," said Salima to both of them.

"Good riddance," said Tala as he mumbled something under his breath.

"Maybe the reason that Mr Insensitive and I have not got to know each other is because he is so thoughtless and seems to think extremely proudly of himself that he doesn't seem to think about other people," said Misao, "And if you want to say something, maybe you should try speaking in a clearer voice!"

"OK," said Salima, "I see that you will get on like a house on fire, so bye bye and I'll see you tonight!"

"Hopefully I'll come back in one piece, but don't forget that I'm with Mr Proud over here, so the chances of me coming back in one whole piece are about nought in a million," said Misao in a spiteful tone as she looked at Tala in disgust.

"Strange, she's insulting me but I couldn't care less in fact I find it extremely amusing," thought Tala as he held the door open for Misao to go out.

"Who knew you could be such a gentleman!" said Misao mockingly as she left the room without saying goodbye to Salima, but whacking her bag in an accidental manner in Tala's face. Turning around with false sincerity, "Oh sorry Tala, I didn't realise you were there!" Tala just gave a very sour grin as he left after Misao.

Salima waved as they left her apartment uncertain that she had made the right decision of having Misao hang out with Tala for a whole day when she had witnessed the hatred trail between them two.

"Right, the schedule for today is clothes shopping, stationery shopping, and any other kind of shopping I can think of along the way OK?" said Misao with a big smile as she began to wonder around the centre, "Oh, you don't have to come in with me since you're nothing but the chaperone,"

"CHAPERONE!!!!?!?!?!?!" thought Tala angrily as he walked after her, "I am no one's chaperone, especially yours!" Misao turned around in false shock.

"You can talk!" said Misao in disbelief, "And there was me thinking that you had permanently lost your voice! Be a tragedy as well!" Misao continued to walk to the big department store at the end of the centre, but suddenly turned around, "You are right! You're not a chaperone, you are a Demolition Boy," Misao drawled these words out with much accent as possibly, watching at Tala's blue eyes didn't waver but she could sense he was becoming uneasy.

"Let's just get your shopping over with," said Tala icily, "Or what seems more proper is to say shoplifting," Tala also drawled this word out with the added impact, however unlike Tala; Misao couldn't hide her feelings about that subject. Instead of answering, she looked Tala in the eye feeling that she could pour all the hatred that she felt for him at the moment but then looked away and walked off. "That's the deal, if you can't handle hearing about your past, than try not to grass up about my past,"

(~(~(~(~(~(~(

Shopping was a generally quiet affair, Misao wouldn't talk to Tala or even give him eye contact, and vice versa. Tala would stand outside and wait as she looked around, but she didn't buy anything.

"He was proud to be a Demolition Boy at one stage, according to Rei," thought Misao as she looked through the shirts and thought about the talk that she had with Rei when she hung out with him.., "I wasn't proud of what I did, I've tried so hard to forget about my mistakes, I thought a new start for me when I moved to Kyoto, but after the mentioning of my past, I just can't concentrate, I can only think about how wrong I was," She reluctantly pulled herself from the clothes and went out of the shop and walked off.

"You know it would be nice if you could warn me when you're going to leave a shop," said Tala as he caught up with her. Misao didn't answer but continued to walk faster and faster until she began into a little jog, "It seems that you've lost your voice now,"

"Shut up!" said Misao as she refused to turn around, "You know I don't need your help here! I can find my way around town fine!"

"Salima said that I-," said Tala.

"Salima says! Well I say that I don't need you reminding me about the past!" said Misao furiously, "Especially when I've tried to move on and forget it,"

"Then you know how it feels to be reminded what you are!" said Tala in an equal rage.

"You used to be proud to be a Demolition Boy," said Misao, "Why the change of heart!"

"How about the fact that you refused to give up shoplifting," said Tala, "The lucky thing was that you were underage and wouldn't be imprisoned, you're no longer proud of what you did. People change you know!"

"People as conceited and arrogant as you never change," said Misao as she turned on her heels and left Tala standing on his own.

That is a slightly longer chapter than the first one and it may seem a bit jumpy with the times but it is slightly to do with the story as a whole, you'll see when I complete the fic.

So we come to see that our main characters are having a major big row about the past, being oblivious to each other's feelings about the subject of the past and are only really thinking of their feelings towards the subject.

I hope that the chapter was OK, if it's not I'll try and right a better one next time.

I'm afraid that this is only a fanfiction for Tala and Misao, they are the sole and main character and their bonding is the most important thing. So I'm sorry to disappoint people who thought otherwise.
