The ride back to Tyson's was, for a while silent. Everyone's thoughts were about the mysterious girl. Soon, Tyson grew bored.
"Ok, someone's got to start a conversation here! Kai, you've got some explaining to do, and now's a good time to start!">
Kai looked out the window with no intention of saying, not to mention explaining, anything to Tyson.
"Come on! Someone say something!"
Max grumbled.
"Ok Tyson, what do you want us to say? You were late a whole hour and you made us wait for you. Not that we didn't expect that, but couldn't you for once in your life be reliable? You had us stranded there in the waiting room with nothing but airplane food in our stomach and now that you pick us up, you couldn't even remember to bring a little piece of real food? And you suddenly expect Kai to explain something to you while the three of us don't even want to talk to you? I say we deserve an apology!"
Tyson was momentarily stunned.
"I think Max has a point Tyson," Rei added.
"Fine! Ok! I'm sorry! After all my time spent to plan this reunion thing for you guys, and this is the thanks I get?" Tyson said.
"You didn't plan the reunion, Tyson, Dizzy and I did!" Kenny said.
"We just thought after fighting against each other, the old Bladebreakers could get together again!"
"Thanks, Kenny, it was a really good idea," Rei smiled.
The silence resumed and Kai drifted off into sleep.
"Hmm...I can't help but wonder, why did that girl appear out of no where and challenge Kai to a battle?" Max said.
"What? She challenged Kai to a battle?" Tyson was interested again.
"Yeah. She was wearing a cloak at first that covered her from head to toe, but when she took it off, Kai had this wierd expression on his face," replied Rei.
"Yeah, I saw that, it's like Kai saw a ghost!" Tyson said, making a "scary" face. "And did you see when he touched her face? On the red triangles? If you ask me, I'd say Kai's getting soft."
"Nobody asked you!" Kai suddenly said.
"Gee, I thought he was asleep," Tyson muttered under his breathe.
"Yeah, but you got to admit, she was pretty," Max said with a smile.
"Did you see her hair? It was like fire!" Rei commented.
"Yeah, wasn't it wonderful?" Max laughed, blushing.
"Ooh! I think Max likes her," Tyson teased.
"Yeah, but Max likes every girl he meets," Rei said, laughing.
"I do not!" Max protested. "I just like the cute ones."
Kai closed his eyes, blocking out the raucous laughters.
So the abby was rebuilt? But how could that be? I destroyed it when I first battled with Dranzer. But it couldn't have been a mistake, the triangles on her face were made with the real stuff only the abby has. Ugh! What could Voltaire (Kai's grandfather, mastermind of the abby and had once planned to use Kai to take over the world. He was also the one who forced Kai into beyblading.) be planning now?
"Ok homies, we're here!" Grandpa laughed his rough laugh and opened the door.
Kai got out of the car and walked away.
"Hey Kai! The house is this way!" Tyson called after him.
"Leave him be Tyson, he'll come back once his thoughts are clear," Rei said.
"But Rei," Tyson said, with a serious tone, "that moment might never come."
Ok, Chapter Three is done. How about that? Ready for some action? Well first, make some reviews and then, Chapter Four will "magically" appear!
