Chapter 3
Kai felt relaxed in the cooling chamber. He closed his eyes and rested his head against the frosted glass wall; that he was sat up against. He hated sitting in the cooling chamber after being prodded by needles with some sort of syrem in it. But this how he knew life now, he didn't remember anything else but this elite soldier life.
He opened his eyes and looked at the opposite frosted glass wall, that faced a well-lit hallway. He saw a figure walking past and to get a better look he zoomed in on them with his lense eye. He smiled as he recognized the guy. He had raven bangs that were all floppy at the front and long, with a ponytail wrapped in white material. A red bandana with the yin-yang symbol was fixed to his forehead and held his bangs in place. He wore a large white Chinese styled top with three blue ties fastening it together and it was tied to his waist by a red sash, some of the white top reached past his waist. He had black trousers underneath with black trainer type shoes. Kai looked at every detail of this figure and knew his frame all too well. The raven-haired guy joined him in the cooling chamber and walked over to him. His crimson eyes met with a pair of feline-like amber eyes. He closed his eyes as the figure crouched down and kissed him.
"Rei." He murmured after the figure pulled away from the kiss. He smiled but remained to keep his eyes closed.
"Rei?" A different voice asked. Kai snapped open his eye to a very confused looking Rei, who suddenly fizzed out and Yuuri appeared with the confused look on his face.
"Yuuri?" Kai said a little shocked. Trying to work out what happened.
"Kai, who's Rei?" The redhead cyber asked, a red eyebrow rose.
Kai was just as baffled as Yuuri; he looked at his redhead koi. "I dunno? Probably a glitch in my programming. Shit!" Kai hoped it wasn't, he didn't want to see them scientists anymore than he had too. The labs scared him.
"Well you better get it checked out, even though I know you hate them labs. I hate them too, but we wouldn't want you breaking down now would we?" Yuuri teased him, poking his chest playfully.
"Maybe." Kai didn't notice Yuuri's teasing as he was still thinking about why he saw some black haired guy walk in the cooling chamber instead of the redhead that was crouched before him.
"Ummm, Kai sorry for the way I acted towards you today at the bank. I was just doing what the General ordered." Yuuri looked at the tile flooring as he ran a hand through his red locks.
"I know. I'm sorry for stressing like that, I suppose I freaked out when that brat knew my name." Kai placed a hand on the cyborg's plan skin.
Their eyes locked together in a gaze. Kai moved closer to Yuuri to plant a kiss on the boy's lips when they got interrupted.
"HITIWARI! IVAHNOV!" Both soldiers snapped round to the man standing at the door.
"Yes sir?" They both shot up and saluted him.
"Are you done re-generating?" He barked out, looking at them suspiciously.
Yuuri was quick to state his device was blue. Kai looked at his own that shared the same colour as his koi and stated the same. The blue on his device indicated that his body was fully generated and revitalised.
"Good. You have a de-briefing at nineteen hundred hours!" He ordered them.
"That's only thirty minutes away! We haven't even been checked over fully!" The redhead Russian protested.
"Are you questioning my authority Yuuri?" The purple haired man threatened, an icy tone in his voice. Plus he was using Yuuri's first name instead of his surname.
Yuuri shut up knowing better not to protest any more as he knew the consequences. "No sir!" He looked at the floor with his arms down by either side. He was biting his lip so he wouldn't curse at the man, and land himself in more shit.
"Good Ivahnov. You're already in trouble from that little stunt you pulled at the bank of England last week! Now you'll be fully checked out and be at the de-briefing for nineteen hundred hours or I'll discipline you both! Understand?" And with that threat, he left the two cooled semi-cyborgs.
Yuuri sighed and relaxed turning back to his cyber koi. Kai sat down again; Yuuri crouched down and rested on his knees. He looked at the crimson eyed Russian before leaning over and resting his forehead against Kai's. He sighed again, closing his eyes. "Kai one day we'll escape from here. You and Me. We wont have to take orders from the General, no discipline, no nothing. Just you and me." He opened his eyes and moved slightly away from Kai's face. "What do you say Kai?" He then kissed him gently. Kai returned the kiss, wishing Yuuri was right. But somehow he wasn't so sure if he'll ever be free. This is the only life he knows. Could he just leave it?
Yuuri pulled away from the kiss and smiled. "See you in fifteen minutes." He winked at him, Kai watched the redhead leave. He rested his head back against the frosted glass wall. "Yuuri don't do anything stupid." He murmured to himself, concern written all over his face for Yuuri.
Kai lay awake just looking at the ceiling. He watched the shadows dance on the pale background. The room was silent except for the soft purrs resonating from the younger man curled up next to him. Kai looked at his Chinese love and sadness filled his whole being. He didn't want this moment to ever end but soon in a few hours he would have to say good-bye to Rei, which will break both of their hearts. Kai remained to stare at the neko-jin. Rei looked so peaceful and happy, a small smile played on his lips and the soft purrs kept escaping from his throat. He mumbled something and snuggled more to Kai's slender frame. Kai breathed in wondering if Rei would stir, he relaxed when the purrs returned indicating Rei was still sound asleep. Kai turned his head to the alarm clock and read the digital numbers. His heart ached, as it was time for him to leave. He carefully wrapped Rei's arm from around his chest and removed his arm from behind Rei's head. Rei stirred again and mumbled something about beyblades and tournaments. Kai chuckled after sighing; thankfully Rei could sleep through the end of the world if it happened, which didn't seem far off to Kai. He then placed his pillow next to Rei in hope that in his subconscious Rei wouldn't notice he's gone. He then carefully climbed out the bed so it wouldn't bounce so much. He didn't want anything to disturb his sleeping beauty. Kai then found all of his clothes and pulled them on, he then gathered all his stuff. He looked at the tanned boy with a heavy heart, a sad half smile formed on his lips. He was amused by Rei's unusual sleeping pattern, and how much the neko-jin moved in his sleep. He padded softly over to him and moved Rei's arm that was dangling off the side of the bed to his side. Rei had moved onto his tummy. The quilt was off him, revealing his naked ass. Kai smirked as he pulled the quilt up to his waist. He stopped there as his crimson eyes rested on Rei's back, on a certain White Tiger tattoo. Kai found himself tracing his fingers over the tiger design. Rei stirred from the touch and Kai snapped his hand back. He watched Rei hoping he hadn't woke him, the soft purrs continued. Kai sighed in relief and Rei scrunched his nose up and pulled the pillow closer to him. Kai decided he best go before he did wake up his kitten. He dipped his hand in to the pocket of jacket and retrieved an envelope with the words 'To My Kitten' written on it. He blinked back the tears that were threatening to spill. He had written the letter earlier when Rei was taking a shower, after he learned about the marriage to Mao. He explained in the letter how he couldn't be around Rei due to the village traditions. He also wrote how it was easier for him to say good-bye this way. Finally he put the envelope down on the table next to the bed. He dived into his pocket once more and pulled out a green and blue Beyblade. The emblem in the centre reflected the moonlight seeping through the window. He then placed his Dranzer blade with the envelope. He was giving his blade containing the fire phoenix to Rei so he wouldn't forget him. He looked at his kitten again while sitting down next the sleeping form who, was still lying on his tummy. Kai brushed back some of Rei's long raven locks since it was out of its white wrap, from his face. He then kissed his cheek, as he couldn't reach Rei's lips.
"Good-bye Rei Kon." He whispered. "I'm sorry but I have to do this." He paused fighting the urge not to cry. "I love you and I always will." He then got up and walked over to the door. He looked back to his sleeping former lover one last time and the he left the room, leaving the apartment and his love.
Rei snapped his amber eyes open and looked at the green and blue blade in his hand. The Phoenix emblem reflected the flash of lightening that lit up the grey sky of this dull day. The thunder soon followed as always, the crash pulled Rei from his thoughts of the morning when he woke up alone, the day Kai had left him because of his arranged marriage to Mao.
He looked around at the small crowd that were here for Kenny's funeral. He recognised some of the faces and others he didn't. Women were crying and most men had an unreadable look on their face. Rei noticed a certain Japanese dark haired man with a brunette girl. He stood near Kenny's family. He was looking at the floor and his ebony messy bangs hid his eyes. He was probably crying, Takao was always more sensitive than most guys, thought Rei. Rei also spotted his American friend, Max who was with Miriam. Max wasn't crying but you could clearly see he was upset. After all Kenny was a dear friend to all of them, and Rei guessed for Takao mainly it was hard coming to terms that he's dead.
To Rei's disappointment Kai wasn't there. He hadn't heard anything from the Russian since the night he last saw him, and he was kinda hoping that he would be here to pay his respects even though he didn't really like the short ex-Blade Breaker. But nope, no sign of the sourpuss.
Kenny's coffin was lowered into the ground and the normal throwing the dirt and roses routine took place.
Rei hadn't even noticed Takao walk over to him. "Rei?" He asked, sniffling not caring that he showed he was upset.
Rei's amber eyes looked up from the ground to Takao's dark eyes, but he didn't say anything to him.
"Would you like to throw some dirt too, since you were his friend too? Kenny's parents asked me to ask you?" Takao said quietly, the boy could actually be quiet. Rei looked past Takao to Kenny's parents who were looking at him. He let a small smile play on his lips as he closed his eyes and nodded in agreement. He then opened his eyes and did what was asked off him. About five minutes later the funeral was over and people started leaving. Rei remained to stay there in the rain; he was still paying his respects to the Chief
"Rei??" Takao's familiar voice asked behind the Chinese neko-jin. The raven-haired guy turned round to him, but was silent.
Takao sighed. "Thanks Rei for coming. It meant a lot to Kenny's parents and us." He was thanking the Chinese man.
"Hey, I had to come, he was my friend too. Thanks for telling me." Rei smiled a little.
"Yeah well it's still hard to believe that he's gone." Takao blinked back the tears in his eyes.
"Yeah, have they caught who did it?" Rei looked at the soaked grass underneath him.
"No." The Japanese mumbled.
"No?" Rei asked surprised, not noticing his voice was a little loud then. Takao did but no one had heard Rei they were too busy mourning.
"Yeah they said something was wrong with the CT cameras. Their faces were all disguised by a symbol looking pretty much like the Nirvana symbol. It was weird." He sighed, looking at Rei's stunned face.
"So there's no way they can find them?"
"Nope, but they do know it's the same criminal organisation that have been stealing from other banks in the world and large wealthy companies. But they were clever to have some sort of virus covering their identities. And no-one track them either! They've been doing there homework." Takao explained to the ex-White Tiger and Blade Breaker.
"That's shit!" Rei half yelled.
"Well they'll find them one day and when they do, they'll have me to deal with too!" He grinded his teeth and balled his hands into fists. His voice was full of bitter and anger. Rei didn't say anything, as he didn't know what to say. But he had a bad feeling that Kai had something to do with this criminal organisation. He hoped he was wrong, but you know what they say about cat's instincts.
"Rei how long you in Tokyo for?" Takao asked randomly also much calmer now.
"A few days." Rei told him.
"Cool. Do you have a place to stay?" Rei knew where Takao was going with this.
"Takao, I would stay at yours, but I have a hotel room as I'm also here on business. Thanks for the offer though." Rei smiled at his friends offer.
"He no biggie!" Takao scratched the back of his head. "Are you coming back to Kenny's Awakening?"
"Yeah but only for a few hours." Rei told him.
"That's great. You can have a ride with us if you want?"
"Thanks, I didn't bring my car." Both lads then walked off to a parked black car, which would transport them to Kenny's parents house.
Well there you have it Chapter three! I must have written several different endings to that! And that was the one I picked! I wrote that at 1 in the morning and half asleep!
