Okay, in the last chapter, I meant that I'll do a 'nice' version and a 'bad' version of chappie 36. So just pretend that they were never together, ok? I hope you understand, if you don't, uh, you can just read it, I guess, and you'll see what I mean. (I hope so!)
Don't say I didn't give you a warning. If you can't bear to read this, then don't! No complaints! I don't want a review saying stuff like, "You're such an awful person, blah, blah, blah..." or "I can't believe you actually made Ray do that," or some other crap, because I did warn ya! Besides, I did do a 'nice' version of the chapter.
Thirty-Six – Argument (This is the 'bad' version)
"Let's go go-carting," Tyson suggested.
"Yeah!" the others agreed.
"What about Zarine, Ray and Kai?" Max asked. "They're not here. Are we just going to go without them?"
"Don't worry, they'll be fine. Just leave them a note," Will said.
When Zarine went back, she found a note from Tyson, Kenny, Max and Will saying that they went go-carting.
[Great!] she thought. [It would be perfect to tell him when he comes back!]
Ray came back a little later. "Where is everyone?" he asked Zarine.
"Tyson, Kenny, Will and Max went go-carting. As for Kai, I have no clue where he is," she answered.
[I should tell him now...No, I can't...I have to...] Zarine thought, battling with herself.
"Ray," she blurted out. "Uh...I....I was wondering if you want to go see a movie."
[Chicken!] she scolded herself. [You can't even tell him how you feel.]
Ray didn't answer. Zarine tried again. "So do you want to or not?"
"What does my silence say? No!" he snapped.
"Why not?" she asked. "Please?"
"I don't want to go with you," he answered in an icy tone, turning to leave.
She felt angry and hurt. She didn't understand why Ray is treating her like that.
She grabbed his arm to stop him from leaving. "You can at least tell me why you're so upset with me!"
"Like I said before, if you don't know then I'm not going to tell you," Ray said.
"You know what? Forget it!" Zarine told him angrily, brushing past him to leave. She opened the door, but...
"You want to know why?" he asked, holding her arm in a tight grasp.
"I said forget it!" said Zarine harshly, trying to get free.
"You will hear me out," he said forcefully. He pushed her against the wall and pinned her there by her shoulders.
"Ow, not so rough," she said, wincing. "So what's up with your attitude anyways?"
"Maybe because you were ignoring me, and spending all of your time with Will," Ray answered.
"He's my brother! It's not against the law to hang out with him!" she protested.
"You could've still talked to me and everything!" He yelled, "I was the one who saved you. You wouldn't even be here if it wasn't for me!"
"So you wanted something in return from me? I have nothing to give you," she said softly. "What, did you want my soul in exchange? Or did you want to control my every move like I'm some kind of property? Or did you just want to make me your plaything that you can throw away after you get tired of me?"
"Do I really seem like that kind of person to you?" he demanded.
"That's the impression I'm getting right now!" she answered loudly.
Ray was furious. He couldn't believe she thought that he was such a person. How could she accuse him of being such a person to his face when he risked everything for her?
Right at the moment, he didn't care how much he hurt her. "B! (Sorry, I can't bear to type such a word out when things are going downhill like this!)" he said, before raising his hand and slapped her in the face as hard as he could.
Kai frowned when he heard the yells. It came from Ray and Zarine's room. Wondering what on earth was going on, he walked to their door.
He couldn't believe his eyes when he saw Ray slapping Zarine. Kai was infuriated. There was no excuse for Ray to be hitting a girl.
Zarine's hand moved up to her cheek, covering it. It hurt like hell, but it was nothing compared to the pain in her heart.
Ray instantly regretted slapping her when he saw the hurt in her eyes. He felt someone shoving him away from Zarine. He looked at the person, it was Kai.
"Ray, how could you hit her?" Kai demanded. "You are the last person I expected to hit a girl!" Turning to the silver haired girl, he said gently, "Come on."
Zarine nodded, tears filling her eyes. Kai put his arm around her shoulder and led her out of the room. He turned back once and said coldly to his teammate, "I hope you're proud of what you've done."
Once Kai took Zarine to his room, he instructed, "Let me see your cheek."
Zarine removed her hand. It was red from the blow. "I'll go and get you some ice," he said, before leaving to get some ice.
The moment he stepped out of the room, the girl fell onto one of the beds and started to weep. Ray hated her, she just knew it.
When Kai went back with the ice, he saw Zarine lying on the bed, her face buried in one of the pillows.
"Zarine?" he said softly, putting his hand on her shoulder.
"He hates me, Kai. Ray hates me, but I love him," the miserable girl cried.
Kai reluctantly embraced her. Hugging wasn't his favourite thing to do, but she was so depressed. "He doesn't," Kai told her. "He was just upset."
He put the ice to her red cheek. She drew back. "It's so cold," she said.
"Your cheek is still stinging, right?" he asked.
Zarine nodded. "Then stop complaining, this will make it feel better," Kai said.
"Can I stay with you in Japan?" she asked.
"Huh?" he asked, surprised. "I thought you were going to go back home."
"I want to see what Japan is like, and Tyson said you have a mansion..." she answered. "Would it be okay if I stay at your place?"
"Yeah, sure," he replied. "That house is too big for me anyways."
"Hey guys!" Max greeted with a big smile, coming in with Kenny, Tyson, and Will. His smile faded, however, when he saw Zarine's tearstained face, and the pack of ice she was holding against her face.
"What happened?" Will asked, rushing to his sister's side. "Did you hurt yourself?"
Tears spilled out of her eyes once again, she shook her head.
"What happened then?" he questioned her again.
She didn't answer him, it was too painful to talk about. The guy she loved hated her, how could she tell him?
"Ray slapped her on the face," Kai answered for Zarine through gritted teeth. Just thinking about it made him mad, he couldn't believe Ray would actually hurt Zarine out of his anger.
"WHAT?!" Kenny, Tyson, Max and Will yelped.
"Did he really do that?" Will asked Zarine, grabbing her by her shoulders.
She nodded sadly. Will was spitting with rage. How dare he hurt his sister? First, he was so mean to her, and then he slaps her?
"That guy is so dead," he hissed softly. He walked out of the room quickly, in search of the person who had hurt his Starlight.
He banged on his door. Ray opened it. "Kon! Why the hell did you hit my sister?" Will demanded.
Ray didn't answer. Will grabbed him by the collar and slammed him against the wall. "If you ever harm Zarine in any way, I swear you will regret it!" he said threateningly, and let go of Ray. He glared at Ray before turning around to leave.
Ray felt so bad. He shouldn't have hit her, or even made Zarine upset in the first place. Now everyone is mad at him. He didn't blame them, it was his own fault.
[What am I supposed to do now?] he wondered.
'Apologize to her, that's what,' Driger told him.
'She's probably still pissed,' Ray said unhappily. 'I just slapped her. Why would she even talk to me? Even if she would, Will probably wouldn't even let me go near her.'
'You won't know until you try,' his bit-beast told him.
'I will, once I find a way to make I up to her,' he said.
He had to. Wondering what he should get her, he stared out at the sky. A necklace, that's what! He thought of getting her one a couple of nights ago. He knew the perfect place to go.
Then Max came in. "Hey, Ray," he greeted.
"Hey," Ray replied quietly.
"Why did you slap her?" Max asked.
"I don't know. We were both furious at each other, then the next thing I knew I'd hit her," Ray answered truthfully.
"Why did you get mad in the first place?" the blonde haired teen questioned.
Ray explained everything to Max. At the end, Max said, "You really need to give her an apology. Will and Kai are not going to talk to you until you do. They are seriously ticked off."
"Great, it's bad enough with Zarine mad," Ray groaned. "I suppose I've brought it onto myself."
"Hate to agree with you, bud," Max said. "I don't think Zarine is mad though, just upset."
"I'll talk to her when I figure out what to say," Ray told his friend.
So this is the first part of this 'bad' version. I promise things will be better in the next chapter!
Don't say I didn't give you a warning. If you can't bear to read this, then don't! No complaints!
