~On Our Own~
+Chapter 4=Soccer & Love+
Ray kicked the white and black ball up into the sky. Well, almost anyway. Ray discovered that wearing shorts and loose clothes were a lot more comfortable. Unfortunately for him, despite the fact that he was very talented at soccer, he still needed soccer shoes.
"Mariah must've figured that part out early." he chuckled as the pentagon patterned object landed on Mariah's forehead and eventually into the net.
"Alright!" she cried and jumped up and down. She held up her hands in a peace sign in front of Ray and he returned it. "Come on Ray! Let's do it again!"
"Not tonight you won't." The pair whirled around to find Lee standing there smiling at his sister and best friend. "Come on! It's time for dinner! Unless you want Gary to eat up everything I suggest that you get going now."
The two shuddered as they got an instant flashback of Gary devouring almost everything at the table when they were little and leaving only a tiny piece for the rest of the White Tigers. The three of them went to bed that night starving and Ray was almost convinced he was going to die since he was so hungry.
Luckily for him, Mariah [or as he would call her angel] came to his rescue and told him that he was strong and that he won't die.
While Lee ran towards the temple to save some food, Ray and his sister walked slowly behind him. An uncomfortable atmosphere was unleashed and suddenly, it seemed like Lee and everyone else were off into another world. It seemed that only Mariah and Ray were the ones who walked the planet.
'Damn! Mariah's definitely the hottest girl I've ever seen. She's so...irresistible!' he walked closer to her.
There was so much Ray had felt for her last year. All those emotions raced back into his mind he couldn't even identify which one is which. But one thing was for sure, Ray loved Mariah.
Another question that got pushed at the back of Ray's mind but pondered often about was, "What kind of love?"
Ray loved Lee, Kai, Tyson, Max, Kevin, Gary-as brothers. Mariah? That was a different story.
'How many kinds of love are there?' he asked himself randomly. Brotherly/sisterly love, romantic love, or just...love. That was such a strong, painful word to him.
He knew he loved Mariah when he was younger. But at that time everyone who was at his age or younger thought that love was a yucky thing. If he told Lee about that then he would probably have killed him years ago. Although Ray didn't see love as the REALLY lovey dovey kind they saw at movies.
He just thought of it as some sort of friendship relationship. "Ack so many emotions I can't decipher it all!" he yelled out.
"Ray, what's wrong? You're still not injured from that battle with Bryan are you?" Mariah asked worriedly as she went over to Ray and grabbed his hands and held them in her own.
Ray blushed so much he swore his head looked just like a tomato. "It's nothing Mariah! Just feeling a bit nauseas." he answered trying to assure her everything would be alright. She wasn't reassured.
She held on to his shoulder as they continued walking to the temple. Ray loved it when Mariah was happy. He often tried to keep her away from anything possibly harmful to her. Why was that? Love was the answer. However Ray also loved it when she cared for him like he was the most important person to her. But he didn't want her to be sad or worried. Just care for him would do.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
"Thanks for the dinner Blossom! It was really delicious!" Ray commented the housekeeper.
The young woman blushed, "Well, I really do like cooking..." Ray glanced over at Mariah who seemed to be enjoying her share of food just as well. She looked up at him and grinned. Ray found himself blushing and smiled back.
For some strange reason, Ray found himself jumping up from the table and walking out the door. "Ray! Where do you think you're going?" asked Kevin as he too jumped out of the table.
"I'm going out for a while. I'm just going to take a little run." he answered and winked at them. He quickly ran out the door and headed towards the soccer field. Even though despite the fact he was a neko-jin, he suddenly felt an odd sensation that was begging him to move his legs, to run.
Once he got to the soccer field he gasped when he saw a red haired girl, probably as old as he was kicking a soccer ball up and down on her knees, switching every time the ball came back down. He hid behind the bushes to watch her continue. She was obviously very good at this.
"99, 100!" she declared as the ball went sailing up in the dark blue sky and was eventually pulled down by gravity onto her head.
"Yo Sal are you done yet? Wanna go home now?" asked a boy nearby. Ray cocked his head to the source of the voice and found another kid his age with blue hair, which is slightly brighter than Tyson's. His style was almost the same, if it weren't for the fact his bangs stuck up like he had just been through a static shock. But nonetheless he had a rat tale.
"Don't worry! I'll walk home. You can go first!" answered the girl as she picked up the ball and put it in her bag.
"So you're just gonna end our date like this Salima?" he sneered unhappily. The girl walked up to him and gave him a quick kiss on the lips.
"This was an awesome night, really Kane! But I think that I should stay here a little longer." Her boyfriend sighed and gave up. He kissed her on the cheek and walked down the hill and hurried back to his home.
Salima stared sadly behind him. She suddenly felt guilty for what she was doing but it was too late to call him and ask him to walk her back to the apartment. This was almost the same thing that happened between her and her ex-boyfriend. She really liked him. He was sweet and he also liked Beyblading, although Salima did have an interest for soccer. They were almost perfect for each other. But things didn't work out in her head.
Instead, everything seemed to have happened for the worst. She got interested in her old childhood friend Kane and dumped him. It wasn't his fault. It was Salima for being a total player.
'I hope he'll forgive me' she prayed silently. Salima looked around to make sure no one was watching but she took off her top and stuffed it in her gym bag. She walked down the hill in the same direction Kane went with her bra on.
Ray stared at her, "Why does she look so familiar?"
-*Flashback*-
It started out like any other ordinary day in Tokyo. Max however got stuck in helping his dad out in the hobby shop so he couldn't hang out with the rest of the team. Tyson claimed that he forgot that he had an appointment with his dentist [something about getting braces] and left in a hurry.
That left Kenny, Kai, and Ray to spend the whole day together, not a good choice. But they decided to walk around town until Ray got hungry and wanted to get some ice cream. While Kenny checked out a beyblading store and Kai just waited patiently outside the ice cream parlor for Ray to finish buying the ice cream, Ray could've sworn he saw the same girl in the parlor.
With Tyson that is. They seemed to be giggling about something as they shared a banana split. 'Well, so much for the dentist.' Ray thought. Then it happened. Tyson leaned over and whispered something to Salima. Or at least it looked like it was. But Ray thought wrong, after finishing he sat back down and Salima blushed and put her hand over her cheek and said something like, "Wow, that was nice. I've never had a boy do that to me before."
That was when the neko-jin assumed the impossible. He was lucky that Tyson was not facing him but had his back to him for Ray to spy on him and his potential girlfriend.
Once when everyone was back at the dojo, they waited impatiently for Tyson to go back home. When he slipped through the door, Kai pointed out that he didn't have braces.
-*End Flashback*-
Ray shook the thought out of his head. That was when his sixth sense told him something was going to happen. He had to follow Salima.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ^^^
"Hey cutie, what's happening right now?" whistled a dark figure. Salima glanced at the figure in the shadows.
"Sorry boy, I'm taken." she sneered and continued on her way.
"Well, you look pretty hot to wear such a flimsy...top, but maybe I can warm you up a bit more." he chuckled. The back of Salima's hair stuck up as the voice got closer to her.
'This creep thinks he can just follow me?' "I'm good enough thank you. But if you really want to warm me up, then I suggest you get me some tea, that is if you can get me." she snorted.
"Sorry hot stuff, but I'm not getting lost like you want me to." Salima felt someone grab her arm and flung her against the wall. Her head throbbed with pain but she didn't have time to regain herself.
The teenager held her shoulders to keep her from struggling. He first started trailing kisses down her nose and eventually landed her a cold one on her lips.
"Let me go you freak!" she screamed. It didn't seem like anyone heard her. That was when Salima remembered she still had her bag in her hands, she tried to hit him with it but she was paralyzed by the tight grasp on her shoulders.
She felt slight movement on her upper body as the asshole started slowly lifting her bra off her. 'Dammit! Why didn't I keep my top on?!' she mentally punished herself.
"Hey you bastard let her go!" exclaimed a male voice nearby.
The teenager turned around lazily and only smirked at him, "Listen kid, why don't you just shut up, stay out of my business, or else your precious slut is gonna get it worst."
Ray mentally sighed at this guy's last comment. "I'm warning you! Let her go right now, and I might consider the option of letting you go!" he continued.
"Please!" the guy smirked and let go of Salima as she fell down and leaned against the wall trying to catch her breath. "Alright bitch, just because your friggin' boyfriend is here to save your butt that doesn't mean you're off the hook yet."
He charged at the neko-jin but Ray jumped just in time to avoid that punch and landed on the guy's head and jumped again, this time in front of Salima shielding her from this bastard.
"You piece of crap!" he yelled and staggered towards him again, giving Ray the advantage. He easily kicked the guy in the face and he dropped on the ground unconscious.
Ray turned around at a groaning Salima and kneeled down, "You okay?" he asked. Salima for once registered that she had just been saved by a total stranger.
"I'm feeling shitty." she murmured. Ray couldn't help but let out a grin and helped her get up.
"A girl like you shouldn't be walking around late in the night with just a bra and short skirt you know." Salima took note of that and put her top back on.
"Thanks for the warning. I'll try to keep that in mind." she replied sarcastically.
"Hey! Want me to escort you back to your home or something?" he suggested.
Salima thought it over for a minute, he could be another rapist or something but there was little chance of that, "Sure."
They were nearing Salima's house when Ray piped up, "By the way, I saw you at the soccer field earlier." he said.
"Really? I didn't see you."
"Yeah, and you were good. Maybe you could teach me or something? Cuz the only sport I've been playing the last few years was Beyblading."
"Are you serious?"
Ray had no idea what he just said. He only brought that up as a compliment. But now he was considering that option as well, "If that's not too much for you." he invited.
"Hmmm, well it really won't matter but sure. How about same time same place tomorrow night okay?"
"Sure! But in return for that I get to bring you safely back to your house."
"Sorry but I'm taken. Besides, I'm living with my family and my boyfriend's family right now. We're just really good friends." she explained.
"Hell I already know. I'm just saying that perhaps you might need a bodyguard or something in case another one of those freaks try to make a 'move' on you." Ray laughed.
She smiled, "Well, this is the place; by the way, the name's Salima."
"Ray Kon." he answered.
"So you're the World Champion Beyblader?"
"Well, the third ranked but yeah."
"I guess I'll see you later then Ray." she grinned back at him as she walked into the house and shut the door.
Ray turned around to go back home, "Yep, I guess I'll see you later too Salima." he whispered.
