Chapter Three I Think I Love You
Elaine shook her head as she headed out of the door to go for a run before the others got up. Kai who was upstairs looking out the window watched as she jogged down the street. He got up and secretly followed her.
Elaine's POV
'I kept running until I reached a dark alley. I could hear beybladers spinning so someone must be having a match. I walk silently down the alley, I heard voices. I walked into the shadows so no one could see me. But then my bladed was glowing and one of the bullies must have seen the light.'
Normal POV
"What do you want?" the biggest guy asked. Elaine's eyes narrowed as she saw the bullies' blade destroy his opponents' blade. The kid started to cry. Elaine answered "I challenge all of you guys to a battle and if I win you guys get out of here and if you win I'm yours for 1 night." Kai walked in and heard this. "Elaine, don't do it!" he said from the shadows. Elaine looked like she was about to explode "WHY THE HELL DID YOU FOLLOW ME HERE!!!" Kai looked stunned at her reaction "Ok whatever but don't come crying to me when you lose." he growled and then he stood behind Elaine. Elaine growled and said "Ok who will ref?" Kai decided to and the battle began "3...2...1... Let It Rip all five of them shouted. (Yes five 4 from the bully team and Elaine) Elaine's blade was strong but so were the others. "Shatari, show yourself!" Elaine said calmly. Then a magnificent black wolf emerged from the blade. She was all black except for her snout which was white, she also had 5 tails and there was a purple glow from each tip. There was a similar strange marking on her forehead like the one Nakaido had. She growled at the four blades and glared when one attacked. "Oh shit." The leader shouted as the others nodded in agreement. "Shatari, Sinister claw attack!!!!!!" Shatari hit all of the blades and flew back into Elaine's hand. The guys looked at her dumbstruck as their blades were at their feet. "Get out." Elaine snarled. Guys ran out of her sight and then she smiled. She walked up to Kai and poked him in the stomach "What were you saying about losing?" Kai merely grunted. The boy whose blade was trashed ran up to Elaine and said "Wow your one beautiful blader" Elaine looked bored as he was saying this "Would you out with me?" the boy finished. Elaine turned away she coughed but Kai distinctively heard the word "freak" and then she walked back to the dojo. Kai smirked as he saw the kids face. Kai pushed past him and followed Elaine.
Back At The Dojo
Kai caught up with Elaine as she entered the house. Elaine checked the time, it was 8:10. 'Time to wake the others in 20 minutes.' Elaine thought So she decided to take a shower and change from her running clothes, still fuming at Kai for following her, but then again se was happy that he was worried about her. 'Oh no, I can't fall in love with the impossible Kai!!!' She closed her eyes as she entered the shower letting the water flow down her back and wetting her hair and she started to sing My Immortal, by Evanescence.
I'm so tired of being here
Suppressed by all my childish fears
And if you have to leave
I wish that you would just leave
'Cause your presence still lingers here
And it won't leave me alone
These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase
When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have
All of me
You used to captivate me
By your resonating light
Now I'm bound by the life you left behind
Your face it haunts
My once pleasant dreams
Your voice it chased away
All the sanity in me
These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase
When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have
All of me
I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
But though you're still with me
I've been alone all along
When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have
All of me
Everyone awoke upon hearing Elaine sing this. Ray, Max, Amber, Kai, and even Tyson woke up and hurried to the bathroom and continued to listen to Elaine sing. Elaine opened the bathroom door still singing but had red puffy eyes. She gasped as she saw 5 people all sitting by the door. "Wow that was beautiful." Ray said still in his own little world. Elaine remembered what she was or wasn't wearing; she only had on her towel so she blushed a deep red and hurried to her room.
Elaine changed into dark blue skin tight leather jeans with a black spaghetti strap shirt, with her knee high combat boots with a 2 inch heel. She did her make up which consisted of black lipstick, dark blue eye shadow, black eye liner, and from her right eye was 3 thin lines the longest in the middle and two short ones on either side. She wore a black chocker with tear drop shapes hanging from it. Each of the shapes had a different symbol planted on it, but she didn't care. Her blue highlights changed from blue to black.
She walked downstairs and saw everyone eating pancakes which Ray had made. "hoa wha happn o you?" Tyson asked with his mouth full of food (whoa what happened to you?) Everyone glanced at her; her pale skin was now tinted pink. "Nothing....." Elaine answered softly as she walked over to Kai who was leaning against the wall staring at her. "Kai, I need the battle now." Elaine whispered to him. He nodded and they left the room. Everyone else followed them.
Kai and Elaine walked to opposite sides of the beydish. Kenny got out Dizzi and the others sat behind Kai and Elaine. Ray stood up to ref "3...2...1 Let It Rip" Ray yelled. "Go Dranzer!" Kai said "Shatari, lets go" Elaine said so quietly it was almost a whisper. The blades kept attacking each other but only Shatari was slowing down. 'Elaine, I need your power we have to do this to win' said Shatari to Elaine telepathically. Elaine shouted "Shatari, Fuse Now!" They all heard Dizzi gasp and everyone but Kai and Elaine hurried over to Kenny and her. But as Kenny was about to open his mouth they heard Elaine scream in pain. They looked at her as she grew black wings and took on wolf features, including black fur and a white face, claws, and a tail. They also saw Shatari turn into what looked like a Wolf angel. Elaine turned to them and said "Meet Metal Black Shatari. She was standing on her hind legs and she was wearing a skin tight white dress with that funny symbol on the center of it. Her head was narrower and she was wearing a black crown. Her 5 tails was now one and she held a black staff with a purple orb in it.
Elaine was now gasping for every breath and there was a purple glow over her body. Kai stood there looking stunned. "Dranzer give it all you've got! Final attack!!" Kai yelled. His blade crashed into hers and Elaine flew backwards. She stood up crawled back to the dish rubbing her head. "Metal Black Shatari, Dark Spiral attack now!" Elaine said. Kai's blade flew out of the dish and Elaine turned back to normal. She held out her hand for her blade to come back. She caught it and blacked out. The last thing she felt was two strong hands breaking her fall.
Elaine woke up and saw that she was in her room with Kai sleeping with his head over his hands on her bed. Elaine sat up which really hurt her side; she winced in pain but shook it off when she saw her Shatari blade on her nightstand. She picked it up and contacted Shatari
Elaine's POV
'Great battle Shatari'
'Thank you mistress'
'When are you going to call me by my name?'
'Which one? Elaine or Wolf?'
'How about Wolfy?'
'Ok I will call you Wolfy from now on.'
And then Shatari left her mind.
End Of POV
Elaine took another shower and changed into similar clothes that she wore to the match but her highlights turned back to blue. She was walking down the stairs but someone's hand grabbed her wrist and pulled her back. It was Kai. "Ok you won; the match will be in Miami, Florida." Elaine's eyes grew back and took a step back but unfortunately she slipped on a potato chip bag and slipped down the two flights of stairs and Kai who was still holding her wrist was pulled down with her. They landed with a thud and everyone looked at them. Kai and Elaine both blushed as they found out the way they were laying. Kai was on the floor with Elaine on top, Kai's hands were around her waist and Elaine's were on Kai's well toned chest. Kai and Elaine stood up abruptly and walked into the kitchen like nothing happened. Tyson was laughing so hard he could had to gasp for every breath. "So....that's what you guys were doing for the last 2 days" Tyson manage to choke out. Elaine eyes were burning with flames "Tyson, take that back or suffer the consequences!!" Elaine roared. He was still laughing so Elaine pounced on him and pulled his hands behind his back and sat on him while he was face to face to the floor. Kai smirked. Max rushed to his friends aid. Amber followed Max and Ray was just laughing his head off.
Elaine hopped off Tyson and jumped onto Kai's back. "Gimme a piggy back ride" Elaine said with a big smile on her face. Kai turned pink and carried her up to her room. "Elaine, I need to know what was disturbing you when I said the tournament was in Florida." Kai said seriously. Elaine's smile turned to a frown. "Ok fine, the last place Amber and I went to a competition I fell in love with another blader. Amber and I lived in Florida for 2 years and We got along very well, until one day the boy broke my heart." Silent tears were now flowing down her cheek. "I don't want to go back there, the memories are too painful." Kai pulled her into a hug. She was silently crying onto Kai's chest. "Its ok Elaine everything will be alright." Then Elaine then again fell asleep.
Downstairs with the others
"One dollar that Elaine and Kai are making out!" Tyson said. Amber walked over to Tyson and held out her hand "I'll take that bet." She said to him. They shook and Amber walked back to Max. "What makes you so sure they aren't making out?" Max asked her. "Because she's still not over-." Amber started but quickly closed her mouth and covered it with her hand. "Not over who?" Tyson asked over hearing their conversation. "Ok, I will tell you guys but you mustn't tell Elaine I told you. She gets very emotional about it. Well we were going to a doubles tournament in Florida." Everyone was now listening intently. "She met a boy at it. In the finals we had to do singles. That's where she met him. They made a deal, if he won she would go one 1 date with him and if she won he would leave the country. He won and they went on their date. That's when they fell in love. Their dating went on for two years until one day he dumped her so he can be free to ask out cousin Jade out. Jade rejected him so then he had nothing but continued to live in Florida. We are still very close to Jade." Everyone looked at Amber in awe. Then Kai walked down the stairs. "Did you make out with her?" Tyson blurted out. Kai looked at him and shook his head. "Hah you owe me a dollar Tyson" Amber said happily. They were all bored so they just decided to be bums and do nothing all day. Everyone was thinking about the fuse during the match.
Elaine woke up a hour later and headed downstairs and found that everyone was just laying around. She was startled by this but bounced happily around, making everyone get up. "I'm bored. Call some of you friends to come over." Elaine said energetically. Ray got up and groaned. He walked towards the phone and called what seemed to be around to be 7 people. "Mariah, Lee, Kane, Salima, Miriam, Tala, and Ozuma are coming in a few minutes.
About 5 minutes later a pink blob darted into the room and lunged for Ray. "Ray I've missed you so much! Who are they?" she glanced at Amber and Elaine. She walked over to Elaine who was wearing all black even her highlights were now black. "Pink." Said Elaine while shuddering at the fact that one person will choose on their own will to wear so much of it. "Black!" shrieked Mariah. "What's wrong now Mariah?" asked a girl with long blue hair as she walked in. "I've never seen so much black on one person in my life Miriam!!!!" Said Mariah. Ozuma who was now looking at Elaine walked over to her and said "I'm Ozuma, and you are?" "Elaine" she answered coldly as she watched the pink blob complain about the black. Lee and Ray were talking and now a hot red head entered by the name of Tala. Kane and Salima were the last to enter and now everyone was going around chatting with one another. Elaine noticed that Amber and Kane got along very well. They were sitting on the couch talking. Elaine got bored and shouted "I'm bored, what should we do now?" Tala suggestive 7 minutes in heaven but they settled on truth or dare.
Mariah went first "Elaine truth or dare?" she asked while glaring at her. "Dare." Answered Elaine. Mariah smiled and said "If you love someone here I dare you to tell them." Elaine didn't blush which made Mariah frown, as she walked over to Kai and sat down next to him. "Kai, I love you." She said it with a lot of sincerity and she didn't look at him as she retreated to her seat. "I love you to." Said Kai as she was heading back to her seat. This made her blush madly.
Now it was Elaine's turn to torture someone. "Amber truth or dare?" "Dare." She answered confidently. Elaine smiled and said "Amber I dare you to tell us your feelings about Kane." Amber's eyes went big and so did Kane's. "I-I really like him as maybe more then a friend but I haven't known him long enough to actually really really like him." She blushed and so did Kane.
The game went on for 2 hours until everyone got bored of it. So they decided to play spin the bottle. Elaine sat in Kai's lap and they were just watching. Tyson had to kiss Salima, Max and Miriam, Lee and Miriam, Mariah and Tala, Ozuma and Salima, Amber and Kane. They got bored of this and decided it was time to leave considering that it was 9:00pm.
