Goddess: so, here we are again, eh?
Tala: I guess so.
Goddess: well, I can't wait to see what the Bladebreakers think of this
move.
Tala: I'm quite a good kisser.
Goddess: ¬_¬"
Tala: ah, shuddap.
Goddess: ANYWAY, on with the fic I think!
Tala: shedoesn'townbeyblade!!
Goddess: thank you 4 that.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
"Yes."
"Yes what?"
"Yes, I will join the Demolition Boys."
"I'm glad you say that." Tala replied, smiling.
Did Ray have doubts? No, of course not. Kai had called him a traitor and that was it. How could they ever be on the same team ever again? Ray had made the right decision, but he still had to tell them.
Just then, a doctor walked in, "Okay Mr.Kon, your situation looks much better. You should be able to leave in about two days if that's ok."
"Oh, that's great doctor, thank you," Ray answered, before he walked back out again.
"That's perfect then, isn't it, Ray?" Tala questioned, "you'll be able to tell your ex-teammates the bad news in two days."
"Yeah, that's perfect." there was a hint of sadness in Ray's voice, but that was to be expected. After all, he'd been with the Bladebreakers for a while and they'd shared some good times together. They were all like best friends, well not anymore.
"Look, I have to go now, but I'll be back for you in two days, ok?" Tala told Ray, getting up slowly.
"Oh, okay." Ray replied quietly.
Tala smiled, then bent down, kissing Ray on the cheek. A blush spread over Ray's face as Tala said goodbye. Ray was alone.again.
*~*~*~*~*~*
Those two days seemed to pass like years, only Mariah visited and even then she only talked about herself. The only thing that Ray could do to pass the time was sleep, he had no one to talk to because it was a private cubicle, and even when Ray did sleep, it wasn't for very long.
The nightmares still haunted him.
"A traitor like you never stood a chance." it was Tyson's voice again, but this time Max, Kenny and Kai stood with him.
"How could you leave us, Ray? We're meant to be your friends." Max added, scowling at his former teammate.
"We were going into the tournament together, as a team. How could you betray us?" Kenny asked, sorrow filling his voice.
Kai however, had no pity, had no remorse. He simply stood there, firing a fierce glare at Ray. "Oh I understand alright.you're a traitor!!"
"A TRAITOR!"
"A TRAITOR!"
The words echoed in Ray's mind, they wouldn't stop tormenting him. "A traitor.a traitor.a traitor."
"No! I'm not a traitor, I have to make my own choices in life. Don't you see? I never meant to hurt you!" Ray called to his ex-friends.
But it was no use, they couldn't hear.
They couldn't hear, and then they were gone.
It still pained him whenever he remembered the nightmares, he didn't want to lose his friends, but at the same time he didn't want to stay in the team.
Today was the day that he was due to come out of hospital. He sat in the waiting room by the reception with a bag of belongings, dreading what was to come. The only thing he did look forward to was seeing Tala again, his wolf-like face and his fiery red hair. And he was so gentle, it's hard to believe that someone as kind as him was ever involved with Biovolt and Voltaire.
At that moment, Tala entered the waiting room and looked around, searching for Ray. He wasn't wearing his normal outfit of white uniform with blue sleeves, an orange stripe lining the trousers, but rather more Chinese clothes. These were similar to Ray's, but tighter and red, rather than white.
"Ray!" Tala finally exclaimed, running over to the new member of the Demolition Boys. Tala gave Ray a warm, welcoming hug.
"Tala, I missed you." Ray said, happy now both boys were reunited once again.
"Oh, I missed you too, Ray-koi." replied Tala, softly kissing Ray on the lips. Other people in the waiting room looked at them, but they didn't care.
They then ended the kiss, "So I'm your koi now?" Ray asked, smiling and blushing at the same time.
"Of course! And I'm glad to say, you look much better. Shall we go?" Tala questioned.
"Yeah," Ray then picked up his bag and together, Tala and Ray walked out of the hospital hand in hand.
"So.where are we going exactly?" asked Ray, as they walked to the car park outside the hospital. Tala looked at his koi as they continued to walk.
"We're going to Tyson's home," Tala answered.
"What? So.I have to tell them today?"
"Yeah, unless you don't want to that is." Tala had a way of persuading people.
"Oh, no that's fine. I wanted to see them after I got out of there anyway."
"Good, we'll go by car." And that's when they stopped walking. A large limo was parked outside, and this was their form of transport.
"Is.this yours?" Ray asked, quite shocked.
"Oh, yeah, it's no big deal though." Tala replied coolly.
"No big deal?! What are you on about?! This is a limo for crying out loud!!" Ray exclaimed, as Tala opened the door.
"After you, Ray-koi," Tala let Ray go first. Ray gave up in trying to explain to Tala that owning a limo WAS a big deal, as he didn't seem to be listening.
Once Ray climbed in, two other boys greeted him. Spencer and Ian sat opposite Ray, as Tala climbed in after his koi and ordered the chauffeur to drive to where Tyson Granger lived.
"You remember Ian and Spencer don't you?" queried Tala.
"Uh.yeah, Spencer fought Kai in the first round of the Russian tournament finals, but I don't know Ian." Ray answered.
"Oh yes, he didn't participate, did he?" Tala asked himself.
"But I'm still a valuable member of the team," Ian intruded.
"We all are, Ian! And now, we can forget about Bryan and welcome Ray as a new blader in the Demolition Boys."
"Yeah.I never liked Bryan anyway. He always seemed a bit too evil if you ask me." Spencer told them, looking out the window.
"That's because Biovolt made him that way. They messed with his head, much more than they messed with mine." Tala replied.
"Can we have at least one conversation that doesn't lead to us talking about Biovolt or Voltaire?!" Ian exclaimed, a little agitated.
"Yeah.sorry. We should be fixing our sights on the future," Tala said to the short, blue haired boy.
"Hn." Ian answered.
Ray decided to break the awkward silence that hung in the air, "So when is the next tournament, then?"
"You shouldn't worry about that yet, Ray." Spencer began, "lets focus on telling your team that you're no longer one of them first."
Ray looked down at the floor, trying not to think about what the tall blonde had said. It was going to be awful telling them, he couldn't bare it if they called him a traitor.
~~Flashback~~
"A traitor like you never stood a chance."
"How could you leave us, Ray? We're meant to be your friends."
"We were going into the tournament together.how could you betray us?"
"Oh, I understand alright.you're a TRAITOR!!"
~~End Flashback~~
Suddenly the limo came to a halt, Ray looked out the window. It was Tyson's house, they'd arrived.
"Oh look, we're here." said Tala.
Goddess: so, do you think Ray will go thru with it? Tala: of course! Goddess: well, I wouldn't be so sure.. Tala: why..??? ¬_¬ Goddess: oh, no reason. Tala: HEY! You can't do that!!! Tell me!!! Goddess: hrmmm.let me think.no. Tala: @_@ Goddess: hehehehe..plz R&R! I want lotsa reviews from u b4 I continue! Tala: are you going to do your evil laugh again?? Goddess: .....MUAH HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!! Tala: oh boy.
