Chapter 5: Irises
A determined look crossed the youth's face as he scrutinized the fountain's design in front of him. When he was done, he turned back to his notebook and continued working on his project. The sun had long since set and the lunariums had come to life an hour ago. A light breeze blew through the garden, but the young boy was oblivious to its chill. When he was satisfied with his work he closed his eyes and recalled one of the most memorable nights of his life.
The vivid memory came before him. That beautiful night with the bright moon shining down on the lunarium garden. Everything tranquil, everything serene and in the center of the peaceful solitude was Kai laid out. His body completely relaxed as he slept soundly. Wyatt concentrated, using a technique Mr. Klew taught him. He focused on the one image, recalling the details to Kai's form and shape, trying to remember the angles and curves. When he was sure he had it, he opened his eyes and looked down on his notebook. He stared at the blank page next to the one that had his drawing of the fountain and began to work.
Slowly but efficiently his hands moved as if they held a mind of their own. Hands only graceful while drawing, moved the pencil, creating the image he wanted. He'd drawn Kai before, several pages in his notebook were proof of that. This time though, his inspiration had been different, the same feeling of happiness wasn't in this drawing. If anyone had seen the fervor with which he was drawing, they'd think he was mad.
Half an hour later he placed the pencil on top of his ear and studied his work. The image before him made him sigh and just drop his notebook on the grass. He stood up leaving the notebook where it lay, the wind ruffling the page he'd just worked on. He took two steps and turned a frustrated face to the moon in front of him. He pulled out a folded piece of paper from his pocket and read it for the fifth time since he'd first received it. He stared over the words again and a gnawing feeling of sadness overcame him. He let the light breeze blow the letter out of his hand. The letter fluttered and spiraled around until a slim hand caught it.
"Must have been some really bad news if you don't even want to hold on to it." said a voice behind him.
Wyatt looked over his shoulder and saw Ethan standing there, the letter and a coat in his hand. Both boys stood there, staring at each other in silence. The sound of pages rustling caught Ethan's attention. He walked toward the forgotten note book and saw that Wyatt had drawn something in it. His eyes widened ever so slightly and he turned semi-curious eyes toward Wyatt, who only looked at him with brown eyes tainted with sadness.
"Why'd you come here?" Wyatt asked as he walked back toward the other boy. "Well it's sure not because of the weather, dude." Ethan said as he handed the coat to the other boy. Wyatt put it on and bent down to pick up his notebook. Before he could get it though, Ethan snatched it away and had sat down studying Wyatt's drawing.
Ethan couldn't help but gasp in surprise as he saw the drawing clearly. He noticed the detail and shading Wyatt had put into it. He certainly did not understand where the image could come from, but he admired the work nonetheless. Wyatt had drawn Kai in a very slight side position, but he had his back in plain view. The only part of the front that was visible was his head, which was turned in the direction behind him, as if someone had called his name and he had turned his head to see who it was. Wyatt had cloaked the other boy's body in white and gray knight's clothes and had drawn big flowing angel's wings on Kai's back. The scene would have appeared happy, but sadly it did not. Kai's faced seemed to be in stoic pain and Ethan noted why. For there in plain view were chains made of thorns spouting from the ground and encircling part of his legs and one of them seemed like it was about to ensnare the hand that held his beyblade. Behind him the garden wall was visible and part of the fountain. The moon shone down casting a shadow on Kai's body and made him look ethereal.
"Wow Wyatt, this is great. Where'd you get the idea for this?" He looked up Wyatt looking back at him. "Buddy, is something wrong? You know you can tell me anything and I won't spill it to the others." Wyatt plopped down on the grass before he spoke, "Read the letter."
Ethan put the notebook on the ground and held the letter up to read it,
"Wyatt,
I know that it has been weeks since the last time you saw me. I said I would be back soon, but that will not be the case. No doubt you've already heard from our teachers of my extended leave of absence. The academy has allowed me to leave until my "family emergency" is over.
As far as that mysterious beyblader goes, I now know that his name is Dunga. He's part of some secret group who call themselves the Saint Shields. It seems I was wasn't the only BladeBreaker who was challenged by one of these mysterious beybladers. The BladeBreakers and I have discovered much about them, but it seems something new has come into play. We're constantly busy training and figuring out as much as we can about why people are trying to take our beyblades away. This means that I will not be returning anytime soon until we discover the truth and stop them. This is also why only now have I had the chance to write this.
I know that when you read this you're going to worry about me and want to come here and help. I'm asking you to do neither. I don't need your help and don't want you getting mixed up in all this. What I'm dealing with I have to deal with on my own, so don't get any stupid ideas. As I mentioned earlier, I don't know when I'm coming back and it could be months before you see me again. I guess all that needs to be said at this point is that anything going on between us now is up to you. I know you won't wait forever and I'm not going to ask you to. It's better that you move on, rather than get involved with me. The only thing I will say is that you take care and don't do anything stupid while I'm gone.
-Kai"
Ethan finished reading the letter. He placed it on the page with the drawing and closed the notebook. He felt bad for his friend as he looked over at him, but put a determined look on his face. "That letter has got to be the stupidest thing I've ever heard in my life. You're not going to let him treat you like that, are you?" That got Wyatt to sit up, a confused look on his face. "What do you mean? Treat me like what?"
"Like a dumbass." Ethan said "What?" Wyatt asked surprised. "Look, it's nice that Kai cares enough to at least write and tell you what's going on, but the last part of the letter was pretty stupid. He's purposely trying to make you feel bad by being so impersonal. He sure has a funny way of hinting that he's begun to fall for you."
Wyatt gave the other boy an incredulous look, "What are you talking about?! Didn't you pay attention? We haven't seen each other in weeks and I'm not going to see him for awhile and that doesn't bother him one bit!"
"How do you know that? At least he tried to contact you." Ethan said trying to reason with Wyatt. "The one time that he does try to contact me, he writes that he wants me to stay away and not get involved with these stupid Saint Shields or with him! He's practically telling me to move on and be with someone else because he doesn't think I can wait for him! He cares so much about me that to protect me from his problems, he chooses to push me away instead of letting me help! Worst of all is that even though I haven't seen him in a long time, haven't heard from him until now, he's still on my mind every single stupid day!" Wyatt fell backwards on his back after his rant. His face a look of frustration as he put both hands on his face. He didn't notice the amused look on Ethan's face.
"Did you get that out of your system?" he asked the younger boy. "Yes" came the muffled response. "What are you going to do?" Ethan asked him. "I don't know. I don't think there's anything I can do at this point." Wyatt said as he took his hands off his face.
"Didn't you say you were going to find him?" "He doesn't want to be found by me." Wyatt said dejectedly. "Look, we both know that the bottom line is that he cares about you and he just doesn't want you to get hurt. Tell him how you feel. Show him how you've improved your beyblading, for Pete's sake! Don't just lay there and do nothing now that the ball's in your court." Ethan got up and dusted himself, "Whatever you decide to do Wyatt, remember you have your friends that are here for you.". With that said the blond boy put the note book next to Wyatt and walked out of the garden leaving his friend to think.
Wyatt watched his friend leave, a contemplative look on his face. He fell back on the grass, letting out a sigh as he did so. He put his hands behind his head and gazed silently up at the stars. 'What am I going to do? Do I just move on like Kai said I should? Is he really a lost cause? What would he do in my shoes? To go to Kai or not go to Kai...' Wyatt slapped a hand on his face. He felt utterly pathetic contemplating all this. He felt the urge to go, to stop this inactivity and just find Kai. That staying behind wouldn't take away all the feelings of unrest and loss. 'I'll do it. I have to. Even if Ethan's wrong and Kai just wants to be my friend in the end, I still have to be there to help him. I gotta prove to him that I can and show him how much I've improved.'
Wyatt slowly stood up and looked around him. A sense of nervous exhilaration coursed through him at the prospect of leaving the academy and finding Kai. He didn't know what to expect. He didn't want to stop and think about what he was doing. Just be reckless and go off simply because he wanted to not because he had to. He pulled the coat on tighter and picked up his notebook. Going at a brisk pace, he raced through the garden, his breath coming out in puffs in front of him. 'No matter what Kai, I'll prove to you that I can help you and that I'm not such an amateur as before.'
With that thought in mind, he ran inside the dormitory building of the academy and up the stairs to his room. In all distraction, he never noticed the pair of eyes behind black sunglasses watching his every move. Pearly white teeth became visible as the person gave a smirk toward Wyatt's direction. The person pulled up the collars of their trench coat and walked out the entrance of the building. The sound of a cell phone was heard as the person walked on. The pale hand reached into the lapel pocket and pulled out the cell phone.
"Hello?" spoke the deep voice. "Blackman, have you found the target?" said the person on the line. "Yes Gideon, I have." "Have you taken care of him yet?" Gideon said from the other line. "No, but I have located him and now it will only be about taking him at the right time."
"Excellent. I know I don't need to tell you how important this boy will be, should things go awry. He will prove useful very soon once Dr. B completes his analysis on the data on the boy." Gideon said as he looked at a file on his desk. He pushed a button on his desk and swiveled the extravagant chair around. The blinds of the window moved aside to show the night sky over the city.
"Understood, Gideon." By now Blackman was walking toward his car. He ran a hand through his red hair, before he hesitantly asked, "Sir, may I ask what you're going to do with the boy once you're done with him?" Gideon raised an eyebrow before he spoke, "You were hired for one reason Blackman, and one reason only, you're to get the boy and bring him to me without incident and no questions asked. I suggest any curious notions you have toward him be squashed. Is that understood?"
Blackman grimaced in annoyance, but answered as stoically as possible, "Yes sir, understood."
End of Chapter 5
Author's notes: So yeah here it is Chapter 5. Sorry to those that actually like this story, I know I tool WAY to long to get this sucker through. Hope it didn't disappoint and if you guys like it then press the little review button and say so. :-)
I guess my only explanation for not getting this out soon was the fact that that I was swamped with a lot of work. I go to high school and college at the same time and sometimes there are these periods were things get to be too much. Lol, I hope I don't get like this midterm time. Plus now that I'm a senior I have to go to through the torture that is called "senior activities". The person that came up with the things we do @ my school must have had a bottle of bourbon in his hand. Well anyway, after this comes Chapter 6, should be up too, that is if ff.net isn't that slow.
And now presenting....
SPIDER'S SHOUT OUTS! *fanfare plays in the background*
(here I give a holla at my reviewers. From the very beginning...this may take awhile.)
Kavier X: lol, you were my first reviewer and your review made me crack up. Thanks.
Becky: Thanks so much for reviewing, I agree. A laughing Kai,...is something scary. If you read this, hope you like how the story has gone so far.
Blue Eyed Angel2: Thanks a lot for your reviews, at the time that I read them, they sure encouraged me to keep this thing going. :-)
Boys-On-Boysenberry: I think you were one of the first reviewers to say that Kai/Wyatt had potential. I gotta say I've read a couple of your stories myself, they're very cool.
Avery Likelytale: Your review was scary and made me get off my butt and review quicker...have I appeased you...are you still going to kill me...? O_o
Babs: I thought it was cool that you agreed that Kai should stay with red eyes. :) Don't worry, just cause I have them separate now, doesn't mean I will for long. hehehe
DRAGON FIRE: Uhhh....wow, I think your review was one of the ones that surprised me the most. Never had anything, I've written, been called beautiful. It was nice of you to say.
Blue Demon: Thanks a bunch for your reviews. hehehe, made me smile to know that my little fic caught your attention enough to read it.
SilverDeathscythe: Your review made me laugh when you referred to Wyatt as Kai's fanboy. hehehe. I also liked the fact that you liked Kai/Rei pairings but still read mine despite the fact that it wasn't your fav. pairing, shows how cool you are. BTW: I like Kai/Rei pairings too.
Leina: Thanks for all reviews. They were very enthusiastic and encouraging. I like tyka pairings too and very glad to hear that this is your close second. ^.^ BTW wouldn't Kai's conscience be called IAK? (You spelled it AIK, hehe)
RainOwl: hehe, nope there definitely won't be a love connection between Kai and Chris...that's just too much. Hahaha, you made me laugh when you called Wyatt a freak and Kai the king, although I can see why you did. *looks at her freaky versions of the characters* ;;sighs;; well anyway, I updated...you won't be mad right? O_o. hehehe
Xx-One-Odd-Gurl-xX: Wow, you were also one of the people that reviewed every chapter. I like when people tell me what they think of each chapter, it's nice. I have to admit I was surprised and flattered that you wanted to post my fic on your site (dude, I honestly never expected it, 6_6) and my answer is yes. (I'll e-mail you later in detail.)
Karen: Thanks for your review. Cool you like Chou and Kamatari pairings too. I'm glad that my story was easier to picture. I also agree, man when Wyatt lost it I was freaked out and thought of my story and what to do, but then I realized it would work perfectly with what I was going to do. Hope you liked this chapter.
samb101: Your review was very short, sweet and to the point. Sometimes an interesting way to get a person's attention, worked for me. :) Thanks.
Fairy Navi: Thanks for the review...at the risk of sounding like a dork...is Yuya, Wyatt's name in the Japanese version of Wyatt? hehehe. ^_^;;
Flame Phantom: Someone told me that your review was a flame...but for some reason I couldn't get myself to feel bad about it. I suppose it's because you could have said some really mean things, but you were just being honest. When I read it I actually smiled. hehehe. The only thing I guess I gotta say to you, should you ever read this, is that yeah maybe Kai/Wyatt supporters might be a lil insane but they sure are open-minded and I think that's nice, so maybe someday this pairing will become semi-mainstream too. I agree that Wyatt isn't as cute as the other characters, but that's why I paired him with Kai, to show that Kai would probably be a guy who can like different flavas. ;-)
Mizu-Tenshi: Thanks for the support. I really liked your review and tada here is the update I did. Oh and I like people who rant, so go ahead next time. :-)
Fallen Iceangel: After hearing the prospect of FREE cookie for writing, I sure got off my butt to post this. lol. I am a cookie-connoisseur-in-training. I'm happy to hear you love my pairing. Horay! As far as Wyatt goes...let's just say that I gotta have him suffer a lot before he can be with Kai and vice versa, but I don't plan to have him die. Thanks again.
saphie: Cool, you want to willingly review each of my chapters. hehe. Your reviews sure were long, another reviewing style I like, tells me more in detail what the reader thinks. Hope you like this chapter, should you get to it. :-)
Ok well that's pretty much it. I don't think I missed anyone and if I did, then just review and hit me with your beyblade. I hope ff.net posts my next chapter soon and not "within 24 hours" (O_O!). Not much else to say except R/R please! Thanks.
Summary: As Wyatt works on a project he thinks about Kai, his life and what the future will bring for them. Feelings of betrayal arise and Wyatt decides to take a stand in his life. Hope you like it.
Warning: there's one bad word in here...I think.

Chapter 5: Irises
A determined look crossed the youth's face as he scrutinized the fountain's design in front of him. When he was done, he turned back to his notebook and continued working on his project.

Leina: Thanks for all reviews. They were very enthusiastic and encouraging. I like tyka pairings too and very glad to hear that this is your close second. ^.^ BTW wouldn't Kai's conscience be called IAK? (You spelled it AIK, hehe)
RainOwl: hehe, nope there definitely won't be a love connection between Kai and Chris...that's just too much. Hahaha, you made me laugh when you called Wyatt a freak and Kai the king, although I can see why you did. *looks at her freaky versions of the characters* ;;sighs;; well anyway, I updated...you won't be mad right? O_o. hehehe
Xx-One-Odd-Gurl-xX: Wow, you were also one of the people that reviewed every chapter. I like when people tell me what they think of each chapter, it's nice. I have to admit I was surprised and flattered that you wanted to post my fic on your site (dude, I honestly never expected it, 6_6) and my answer is yes. (I'll e-mail you later in detail.)
Karen: Thanks for your review. Cool you like Chou and Kamatari pairings too. I'm glad that my story was easier to picture. I also agree, man when Wyatt lost it I was freaked out and thought of my story and what to do, but then I realized it would work perfectly with what I was going to do. Hope you liked this chapter.
samb101: Your review was very short, sweet and to the point. Sometimes an interesting way to get a person's attention, worked for me. :) Thanks.
Fairy Navi: Thanks for the review...at the risk of sounding like a dork...is Yuya, Wyatt's name in the Japanese version of Wyatt? hehehe. ^_^;;
Flame Phantom: Someone told me that your review was a flame...but for some reason I couldn't get myself to feel bad about it. I suppose it's because you could have said some really mean things, but you were just being honest. When I read it I actually smiled. hehehe. The only thing I guess I gotta say to you, should you ever read this, is that yeah maybe Kai/Wyatt supporters might be a lil insane but they sure are open-minded and I think that's nice, so maybe someday this pairing will become semi-mainstream too. I agree that Wyatt isn't as cute as the other characters, but that's why I paired him with Kai, to show that Kai would probably be a guy who can like different flavas. ;-)
Mizu-Tenshi: Thanks for the support. I really liked your review and tada here is the update I did. Oh and I like people who rant, so go ahead next time. :-)
Fallen Iceangel: After hearing the prospect of FREE cookie for writing, I sure got off my butt to post this. lol. I am a cookie-connoisseur-in-training. I'm happy to hear you love my pairing. Horay! As far as Wyatt goes...let's just say that I gotta have him suffer a lot before he can be with Kai and vice versa, but I don't plan to have him die. Thanks again.
saphie: Cool, you want to willingly review each of my chapters. hehe. Your reviews sure were long, another reviewing style I like, tells me more in detail what the reader thinks. Hope you like this chapter, should you get to it. :-)
Ok well that's pretty much it. I don't think I missed anyone and if I did, then just review and hit me with your beyblade. I hope ff.net posts my next chapter soon and not "within 24 hours" (O_O!). Not much else to say except R/R please! Thanks.
