The Toughest Challenge In the World

Authors Note:

Kaji: Yes people, you read the title. What is the toughest challenge in the whole world, even for the most skilled beyblader? Read to find out.

Rei woke up with a yawn. He rubbed his eyes sleepily and staggered over to the bathroom across the hall. After showering and getting dressed, he made his way downstairs. Hilary was sitting at the table, her head laying on the table. Tyson was battling with a cereal box. He was losing the battle, pathetically.
"Damn, stupid. Piece of. Dargnagit. Reeeeeeei, it won't open." Rei let out a huge sigh. 'Well, Rei, look on the bright side.' He thought to himself. 'At least Tyson is back to normal.' He grabbed the mangled up cheerios box and popped the top open with his thumb and handed the box back to Tyson. Tyson beamed up at Rei.
"Thanks buddy." Rei shuffled off.
"Whatever." Kenny came walking sleepily into the kitchen, chibi free. He pulled out some carrots and broccoli and the steamer, then started to make himself breakfast. Rei got out some Lucky Charms and mixed them around in a bowl with his milk. He was about to put the box away, when a sleepy hand snatched it away from him. He turned to see a half asleep Max, no longer chibi, pour a heaping bowl of cereal. Everyone was sitting at the table, When Rei noticed someone was missing.
"Hey. Where's Kai? Isn't he the first one to wake up in the morning?" Tyson rolled his eyes.
"He's probably still training. You know him." Tyson put up a mock expression of Kai by crossing his eyes and holding his arms up like a disabled person. "Look at me. My name is Kai. I like to train. I hardly eat. I wake up early. Blah blah blah. I think I'm the best because I'm so rich. Nah nah nah." He finished with a chuckle. Max raised an eyebrow at him.
"Tyson, Kai doesn't sound, or look like that, at all. He also doesn't narrate his life like that."
"Face it Tyson. Your expressions suck." Rei commented without looking up.
"I agree, Tyson. Your fat, not to mention ugly." Hilary sleepily put in without lifting her head, obviously without knowing fully what they were talking about. Kenny remained silent. After they had all finished breakfast, Kai still hadn't turned up, so Rei decided to check to see if he was outside. He came back in, shaking his head.
"He's not in the back or front yard. He usually doesn't leave the house until after breakfast." Max, who had been sitting in the recliner playing Pokemon on his gameboy advance, spoke up, "He's probably still sleeping." Tyson laughed at this logic.
"Ha! Kai! Sleeping in! AS FREAKIN IF! You know that would never happen." Rei sighed as Tyson laughed at Max's "stupid" remark that didn't make sense.
"I'll go check." Rei made his way up the stairs to Kai's room. When he got outside the door, he knocked, respecting Kai's privacy. When no one answered, he knocked louder. This time, some one did answer.
"GO Eh – WAY! I'M TRYIN TA SLEEP HERE!" Rei, completely stunned, opened the door cautiously. This was not the kind of response he had expected. When he walked through the door, he noticed a small figure huddled underneath the covers in Kai's bed.
"No. No way. This can't be what I think it is. Please God. Have mercy on our souls." Rei muttered hysterically to himself as he approached the bed. He reached out his hand and shook the figure on the shoulder. The figure let out a high, aggravated, sleepy groan.
"I told yah. I'm not waking up this freakin early." Rei checked the bedside table alarm clock.
"It's ten thirty. You need to wake up, Kai." Rei died a little inside as his team captain sat bolt upright in bed, chibifyed.
"Why didn't you wake me up!?! I only like to sleep in till ten on a weekend."
"It's a weekday, Kai." Rei was now in a bad mood.
"Oh, in that case." Kai flopped back down on his side. Rei grabbed Kai by the shoulder and attempted to drag him out of bed. Kai pulled out of Rei's grasp.
"Kai, you have to get up. NOW!" Rei's eye started to twitch. He never expected Kai, of all people, to act this way. Kai gave Rei his usual death glare.
"I'll get up, on one condition. Make pancakes. NOW!" He smirked as Rei gave a sigh in defeat and headed for the door. A little while latter, Kai was rewarded for his stubborn efforts by the delicious smell of pancakes. He decided to get up for his well earned breakfast.

Downstairs Rei stood over the stove, frying up pancakes, when Tyson slinked into the kitchen and stood, drooling over Rei's shoulder.
"That smells great, Rei. You're such a mind reader. How'd you know I was still hungry? I do love pancakes." Rei flipped one onto a plate and put another pancake on the stove.
"This isn't for you, Tyson. This is for Kai." Tyson crossed his arms and sulked.
"Why are you making that pretty boy breakfast, huh? How come he's so special? What makes him any different from me?" Rei almost burst out laughing.
"You'd be surprised how different, for the better, Kai is than you. Anyway, I'm making this to get him out of bed. He doesn't want to get up." Tyson drooled, bewildered by the fact that Kai didn't want to get out of bed. That was his job. Light footsteps where heard on the staircase, then dead silence wiped through the living room. Kai, chibi, appeared in the doorway. A sudden shocked expression swept over his face as Rei put another pancake on the plate and poured syrup all over the pancakes.
"Crapyshitafacata. That kid's fat! Tripy." Tyson scowled at Kai as he raced over and grabbed the plate off of the counter, beaming up at Rei.
"Thanks, Rei. This looks yummy!" All of the color drained from both Tyson and Rei's faces. Kai merrily walked into the living room with his pancakes, silence once again sweeping through the living room. Tyson turned his pale gaze to Rei, who was staring at the spot were Kai had just stood.
"R-Rei? D-did Kai just (gulps) s-smile and say t-thank you?" Rei gulped, fear sweeping through his whole body.
"Y-yeah."
"A-and, did he say, y-yummy?"
"Y-yah."
"This days gonna be weird."
"Yah." Rei couldn't find any other words to say then, yah. How were they going to fix this one. No one Rei knew, knew how to make Kai cry. Nobody. This was going to be one of the toughest challenges the bladebreakers would ever face.

End Note:

Kaji: MUWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! CLIFF HANGER! Sorry this was such a short chapter, but I'm going to save the best for latter, just to keep you in suspense longer. Heh heh heh heh.

Kurai: Your almost as bad as me. So, what did you think of the challenge? Almost completely impossible. Almost.

Kaji: I know, in my last chapter, I said I wouldn't update in a while, but I got bored so I decided to quickly type this up before the idea died. As promised, I won't be updating this story in a while, so bear with me. I'll be updating my other story, but, I'll make sure that ch.8 is extremely long, just for you guys. Since this chapter was short, I'll display everyone who reviewed in the next chapter. In the mean time, R&R!
