YAY!! UPDATE!!!^_^ I finally got a break from school, well a lil vacation.^^ Lol. Plus I just came back from an anime convention too. So now me free to do this fic! Hee hee. So this is Ch.7 of Fate's Melody! Party at Kai's house! ^^ I also want to thank all the people for the reviews again. Arigato! *hands them all Pocky*^^ All your R&R help this fic to become better for you.^^ Because no one wants a fic that turns bad all of the sudden. Lol.^^

Replies to the R&R: Glad that everyone likes it.^^ Lol. And I know. Bad me for not including the other beybladers into this fic.^^; I really wanted it to focus on Kai because he gets so lil attention in the anime. But if you want the other characters to get into the action, then they shall.^^ ~*Mimi*~ ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Kai sighed as he sat through Math class bored. The conversation he had last night with his grandfather was still playing inside his head. All day it was like that, he could hardly concentrate on the person teaching each lesson. Once the last bell rang he walked out without a single word or glance to anyone, and started to head home.
A party for his grandfather's success in that illegal business of his. Voltaire was so greedy that he'd sell anything, even something illegal, to gain money. Kai was going to be the leader of the business when his grandfather couldn't take care of it anymore. The idea of running such a business made him angry enough to punch a hole into the wall.
"Damn, that bastard!" he cried out.
"Kai?" asked a familar voice from behind.
He twirled around to see who it was. There stood Tyson and Rei who just came out of school. Their puzzled looks made Kai take his fist away from the hole in the wall and turn away.
"It's none of your business..."
"Kai, you've been awfully quiet lately. Is something up?" asked Rei.
"I said it's none of your business!" he yelled out in fury at his friends.
Rei was too shock to react or say anything. He didn't want to get on Kai's bad side, or there would be a painful punishment. But Tyson didn't care. He raced up to Kai, lifted his fist, and struck him across the face.
"Hey, listen! We're trying to help you out! If you want it, then you should tell us what's your problem! That cocky attitude is gonna lead you all the way to the grave if you don't confess to your friends! We're trying to give you support!"
Lying on the floor Kai was amazed at Tyson's brave act. No one punched him before, especially not Tyson. The former beyblade champion who did nothing but eat everyone two hours actually insulted him. Yet he was right. Kai wanted to tell them what was wrong, but he also didn't want them to get involved with Hiro.
"I agree. You're right about the death thing." replied someone else.
Tyson, Rei, and Kai turned to see Hiro standing a few feet away from them in his school uniform. A deadly smirk was on his pale face as if he were some God of Death waiting to end Kai's life. His desire was to kill the loner except he never did. Every chance he got ended up being a failure. Or was he doing that on purpose? He said he was waiting for the perfect time. When would it be? At the party?
"I assume you heard about me being invited to your party tonight."
"Shut up, you asshole! I don't want to hear it!" Kai turned his head away from him.
"Hey, Kai. Who is this guy?" asked the blader who possessed Driger.
"I am a God of Death, and I have my sights on your friend. If you come between us be prepared to die." answered Hiro with his eyes glowing red.
"You're not serious..," shockly spoke Tyson.
"Oh, I'm very serious. The question is will you two take my threat seriously, as well?"
With that Hiro rammed his elbow into Tyson's stomach, grabbed his neck, and took out a knife. Before he could do anything he was stopped by Kai.
"Hiro...they're not part of this. Leave them out of it!"
"I'm surprised. Do you really think these two are your friends? You spend so much time alone, it's hard to believe."
Rei took out his launcher to aim it at Hiro's head until another blade did it before him. Hiro let go of Tyson while dodging to the side. Tala reached his hand out to force his powerful blade back into his hand, then stared with narrow eyes at the hit man.
"You shouldn't pick on the weak."
"And you shouldn't get involved in my business," growled Hiro.
Tala just shot him another angry look, making Hiro back off from angrier. He looked over at Kai again to say one last thing.
"We'll finish this off at the party. I assume you won't invite them. I want this fight to be between you and me. Or else there will be more blood on those hands on yours."
"Don't you mean your hands?" questioned Kai.
"Not entirely. I'm not to blame for your parent's death. The person who is...is right infront of me."
He disappeared when Kai shouted out," Wait!"
"Kai.."sadly spoke Tyson who forced the words out of his mouth from the damage Hiro did.
"Leave me alone! Don't save me! I don't need anyone's help! No one's!"
He started to run away from his friends. To him it was like running away from the past.
'Hiro's wrong! I couldn't have done it! I couldn't have killed them!' yelled Kai inside his head as he kept running towards his house.
What he didn't know was from inside a car a man was watching him run off to his house. The guy smirked and softly a phrase escaped from the cage of his mouth.
"You're starting to realize the truth, Kai...In time the plan will fall all into place." ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------- We end it there! ^^ The characters wanted in the fic make an appearance. I really didn't know what to do but I figured out this scene.^^; Where it seems as though Hiro's stalking Kai. Lol. As for the mysterious man well it's a secret. At least until the next couple of chapters when the party really start to begin. And more clues to if Kai really killed his parents, the lil watch Hiro possesses, and even more.^^ So I'll update again when I get a break from school. Lol. ^^;
