Tala: hn.
"I was wondering."Tala began.
"Yes?"
"If you wanted to join the Demolition Boys."
Ray immediately thought no. How could he do that to his team, after everything they'd been through together? But neither Tyson, Max or Kai came to visit him. Did they even care? Ray was starting to have doubts.
He then realised Tala was staring at him, awaiting a reply.
"I.I have to think about this, Tala," Ray finally blurted out. The answer didn't surprise Tala, he didn't expect Ray to just drop everything to join another team, without any notice whatsoever.
"I understand," Tala said, standing up. "I'll be back, though."
"Yeah, okay.see ya," Ray said his goodbye, and watched Tala leave the room. Why did Ray have to think about it? No. He couldn't leave the Bladebreakers, not for anything. Ray got tired of thinking, he yawned and rolled over onto his side, closing his golden eyes. He soon drifted into a peaceful slumber.
"Ray? Ray?" a voice whispered in the distance. Ray furrowed his brows, he wanted to sleep longer, he wanted to draw out time. But this was to no avail, as the whispering figure started to talk louder.
Opening his sleepy eyes, Ray's first vision of the new day was of a blonde- haired boy. The blonde laughed quietly, noticing how tired Ray was. Usually Ray was up quite early in the morning, so this was a surprising turn in events.
"Max?" Ray asked. He then yawned and rubbed his eyes, enabling to make out his fellow teammate more clearly.
"Hey, how are ya, buddy?" Just as Ray thought, Max was his usual cheery self and he held a brown paper bag in his hands.
"Well.tired, I guess," Ray replied, wondering where the rest of the team were.
"Don't worry, Tyson has just gone to the cafeteria with Kenny and Kai will arrive soon. Oh, and this is for you." Max handed Ray the brown paper bag. Taking it, Ray opened it and was quite surprised at what he saw.
"Um.Max? Isn't it tradition to bring grapes to a hospital patient, not.." Ray pulled out a large fruit from the bag, ".a pineapple?"
"Well, yeah." Max replied, scratching the back of his head, "but I figured you'd want something a little less.predictable."
"And just how am I meant to eat it?!" Ray exclaimed, a little frustrated.
"Um." and before Max could answer that very awkward question, in marched Tyson, holding a mound of chocolate bars with Kenny trailing along behind him, Dizzy in hand of course.
"Hi Ray! I brought these for you!" Tyson told him chirpily, unloading every single chocolate bar onto his bed.
"Hi Ty.thanks." Ray replied, feeling a little overwhelmed.
"Well actually, I brought these for you." Tyson said, throwing a small sachet of salt and a spoon onto his bed, retrieving the chocolate immediately.
"Wow.so many gifts, and they're so." the words 'stupid', 'inedible', 'spiky' and 'soup-scooping' came to mind, ".interesting."
"Good!" Tyson said, stuffing the first of many candy bars into his mouth.
"I hope you'll be out soon, Ray," Kenny said hopefully, "after all, there are some up-coming tournaments that we really need to train for."
Ray gulped, he felt uneasy at the subject of the team. Would being a member of the Demolition Boys be such a bad idea? Maybe it was time to let go of the past, but he didn't want to be a traitor, like he was named before. At least his team had come to see him, which was something to hold on to.
At that moment, Kai walked in. He wore his usual outfit and looked moody, but that was normal. He didn't say anything until he reached the side of Ray's bed.
"How are you?" he asked, no emotion entering his voice.
"Uh.. I feel a tad tired, but apart from that, mostly fine. Thanks for asking, Kai."
"You're welcome. When do you think you'll be out of here? Did you know there are some tournaments soon? Every team in the world wants to challenge us after our victory over the Demolition Boys."
"Yeah, I heard." Ray replied, still deep in thought. "I'm not sure when I'll be out, the doctors haven't said. But I'm sure I'll be out soon enough."
"Well, that's a relief," Max said happily. But Ray wasn't so sure, he still hadn't made up his mind.
"What's up, Ray? You look tense," Tyson interrupted, still eating chocolate.
"Oh, nothing. It's nothing, really." the Driger-weilding boy replied, managing a small smile.
Soon enough, Tyson, after eating every bar of candy, decided that it was time for them to leave. Max agreed, commenting that Ray needed some rest and Kenny said he would come back when he received more news of the tournaments. But Kai stayed, saying he'd catch up with them.
"Ray, come on, I know something's bothering you, what is it?" Kai queried, sitting on the seat next to Ray.
"I told you, nothing. And since when did the famous 'un-sociable' Kai start making conversation?" Ray asked, a slight smile on his face.
"I know you better than anyone else, and I know you're lying to me," Kai ignored Ray's sarcastic comment and continued to question him.
Ray turned away, out of shame. He knew that he couldn't just keep this a secret, especially not from Kai. "Okay, okay." Ray turned his head back round so he and Kai faced each other.
Kai listened anxiously, as Ray began to speak.
"I had a visitor yesterday."
"Go on."
Ray was apprehensive, but resumed to his explanation, "It was Tala."
Kai's eyes widened, "Tala?" he asked in shock, "What did he want?" a tinge of bitterness crept into Kai's words.
"He."
"Yes?"
"He asked me to join the Demolition Boys."
Goddess: No!! I hear you cry! Not another cliff-hanger! Tala: that's not fair! Goddess: but I am the mighty authoress!! Tala: yah, I guessed. Goddess: awww, poor ickle Tala is all upset! Tala: shuddap. Goddess: right, remember readers, the more reviews I get, the more chapters I will write! So I'm expecting at LEAST 15 before I continue..MUAH HA HA HA HA HA!!! Tala: oh brother. ¬_¬
