Not In Love
I am SO bored with revision. The computer was just sitting there going 'you know you want to.' So I've given up on the revision and I'm going to write chapter five! Hope you all enjoyed chapter four. I haven't been able to see if there was any reviews 'cause the computer with the internet on is DEAD. But my dad's mate is going to bring it back to life. Personally I don't think there was anything wrong with it; my dad's just paranoid…
Disclaimer: I still don't own Beyblade or any of its characters. What a bummer!
Oh and as a little note there will be plenty of action at the end of this chapter as the last one didn't have any. I am trying to get as much in as possible, honestly!
Chapter 5
"Tyson, don't touch that."
"God Rei, you're spending WAY too much time with Kai, you're starting to sound just like him. And that is NOT a good thing."
"Tyson, just because my eyes are closed doesn't mean I can't hear you. Now do as Rei says." After a bit of huffing and puffing, Tyson stopped pressing the buttons above his seat and sat back in his chair.
"Kai, why don't you just try being a bit nicer?" Tyson asked seriously.
"I'll try being nicer, if you try being smarter."
"Which is impossible," Rei added. "So just do as you told before we throw you out the emergency exit." Tyson continued his moaning for a while until a hostess came down the aisle with the food trolley. They were flying first class to England on a private plane MI5 had hired for them so; naturally, Tyson was very excited and was being even more annoying than usual. After lunch Tyson, Max and Kenny went to the front of the plane to watch a film whilst Kai and Rei stopped at the back playing cards.
"You cheat!"
"How's that cheating?!"
"Kai, I saw the card up your sleeve you crafty git!"
"What like this one?" Kai smirked, pulling the ace of hearts from the sleeve of Rei's shirt. "I think there's more than one crafty git at this table." They both laughed and gave up on the game. Whenever they played cards they'd always try and cheat each other so it never really worked. However, now they'd given up they had nothing to do. Eventually, Rei decided he was going to check on the others so he left Kai reading his newspaper and went down to the front of the plane. Not long after he did, Tyson came through the curtain that divided the two parts with an English phrase book in his hand. He looked up and spotted Kai.
"Alright Kai?"
"I was," Kai said not looking up from his paper. Tyson ignored him and carried on.
"How was your game of cards?"
"Is this going anywhere?" Kai asked, still not looking up.
"Well, I just noticed how cosy you and Rei had got at the back here." That got Kai's attention immediately.
"And just what is that supposed to mean?"
"Don't try and act dumb Kai. It's obvious he's grown on you. You do nothing but stare at him."
"For your sake, I hope you're not suggesting anything," Kai threatened, going back to his paper.
"And what if I am? Would I be right? You can tell me Kai, I wouldn't tell a soul."
"Yeah right."
"So you do like him?"
"I didn't say that."
"Yeah, but I think you meant it."
"Listen Tyson, I… work with Rei and he's… a good friend, nothing more, got it?" Kai said, knowing himself how fake it sounded.
"Whatever."
"Was there anything else you wanted or are you just sitting there to annoy me?"
"Actually there was something. I was wondering how you greet people in English?" (A:N, okay you'll have to use your imaginations here.) Kai smirked slightly.
"Well, you'd probably say something like 'Hello, I'm a twat.'"
"OK. Hello, I'm a twat. How's that?"
"Perfect." He smirked behind his paper.
"Well, I'm going to get something to eat I'm starving." He began to leave but turned back to Kai.
"If you were clever, Kai, you'd have noticed that Rei can't keep his eyes off you either."

Once the plane had come to a stop at Heathrow Airport, they all headed to the exit. As they passed the air hostess at the door, Tyson stopped and shook her hand.
"Hello, I'm a twat," he said smiling at her. She raised her eyebrows slightly at him, while the Rei, Max and Kenny tried to hold back their laughter. Kai just smirked and apologised to the hostess in English.
"Excuse our friend, he's a beginner."
"Oh right." As they carried on out of the plane Rei and Kai walked slightly behind the others.
"I have a feeling Tyson didn't learn that from his phrase book. Would that be anything to do with you Kai?" Rei whispered to him.
"Might be," he said slyly, as Tyson 'greeted' their driver.

David Jones had met them in the car and told Kai and Rei the arrangements for the next few weeks they'd be spending in England. The disk with the list of hostages and their locations was in a safe in a house in the countryside as they wanted to keep it away from the centre of the London, an obvious place to hide it. Le Bian wouldn't be trying anything just yet as he knew MI5 were onto him. So they'd be staying in the house for a few days whilst MI5 sorted out their fake ID and other things they were going to need. The house wasn't as big as the one they had in Russia but it was certainly big enough. There were all kinds of training rooms around the house and a large assault course in the garden. In the equipment room, were some of their bikes and cars they'd had brought over on the ferry. However, within a few minuets, Tyson had already found his favourite part of the house.
"Alright! A pool! This place is great!"
"Do you think they've overdone it a bit?" Rei said to Kai as they put their bags in the hall. "I mean were only work- oh my God. Is that a quad bike?"
"What were you saying about overdoing it?" Rei smirked at him and went to the large staircase that towered in front of them.
"You coming to get a good room before those lot get up there?" he nodded to Tyson, Max and Kenny who were all staring at the large screen TV in the living room.
"Okay." They walked up to the first floor and chose two rooms attached to each other. After dropping their bags on the beds, they went for another look around.
"You know, I think after this job, we should have a break for a few months," Kai said, all of a sudden.
"What brought this up?"
"It's just… we never have time to talk about anything other than work just lately, let alone do anything nice so I thought we could… well take a break and just… relax."
"I'd like that," Rei smiled at him.
"OK then." He smiled back and they carried on looking around.

After a few hectic days of getting IDs and contacts sorted, Kai and Rei were having a quiet training weekend while MI5 tried to find the Le Bian. On Saturday night Kai lay in his bed trying to get to sleep. However, this was proving to be very difficult due to the sound of the rain hammering on the windows of his room. Just as he turned on his side, thinking it might help, there was a huge crash of thunder.
"Oh for Christ's sake! Stupid weather…" He jumped out of bed and turned on the light. He thought for a moment then made his way down stairs. In the main hall, by the staircase, he remembered seeing two rapiers on the wall. (A:N I think these are like the things they use for fencing but a bit sharper, I'm not sure?! If I start calling them swords you'll know what I mean!) He pulled one of them down and walked over to the CD player. He flicked through a few of the CDs Tyson had left there and came across a decent mix. As U2 'Elevation' blasted through the speakers he began practicing his attacks. Immediately, he felt better. He carried on like this for a while, unaware of the figure watching him from the hall upstairs.
'Why he thinks this is going to help him sleep is beyond me,' Rei thought to himself, as Kai back flipped over the table. Kai was wearing the black pyjama bottoms Rei had bought him last month and no top (A:N drool!). Rei had to admit how good he looked, although had always been blessed in the body department. 'Nice ass too- NO stop it Rei. You work with Kai and he's a friend, nothing more.' He tried to tear his eyes away him but failed. 'I suppose it wouldn't hurt to have a little fun with him though.' He smirked to himself and walked silently down the stairs, pulling the second rapier of the wall as he passed it. He managed to walk up behind Kai completely unnoticed. Just as Kai turned around with a strong attack, Rei held out his sword and blocked it.
"Not bad, but you'll have to do better to keep up with me." He smirked and began attacking. Nevertheless, Kai managed to block all of his blows gracefully.
"You were saying?"
"Oh I'm just warming up." They carried on like this for a few minuets, but, being equally matched, they didn't get very far. Even so, they kept the rapid pace of their attacks going. Kai watched Rei closely as they did. He was dressed not unlike himself apart from the white bottoms he was wearing. They were now both sweating and rather out of breath.
"Had… enough yet… Kai?" Rei panted.
"Not… nearly." They both stepped forward for a close attack, crossing their rapiers in front of them.
"Good."
There were now only a few inches between them. They were both breathing heavily. They shortened the gap. Their breathing quickened. Their lips were almost touching…
Two figures in black came crashing through the glass dome in the ceiling. Kai and Rei parted and ran to opposite sides of the room as the alarms began. They hid behind two pillars and waited as the figures unhooked the rope on their belts, after landing on the floor. They pulled off their balaclavas and ran towards the glass door that had shut around the safe when the alarms had begun. Kai glanced over at Rei and nodded to him. Thankfully, the music was still playing so they managed to creep up unnoticed behind the men. In unison, they hit them over the head with the handle end of the rapiers, knocking them out instantly. They dragged the bodies to a dark spot just as at least another twenty men came through the roof. They hid around a corner and watched as some of the men began walking around the hall and the others began breaking through the gate.
"Come on, we need to get the others," Kai whispered. They couldn't get upstairs because of the men on the staircase, so they ran down to the equipment room. Luckily, there was a phone on the wall. Rei dialled Tyson's mobile number and waited for an answer.
"Come on, come on- Tyson! Where are you?"
"We're all in Kenny's room. What's going on?"
"They've come for the disk, is Kenny there?"
"Yeah, hang on."
"Kenny, have you got the computer on?"
"Yeah."
"You're going to have to be our eyes."
"Right, I'll just get the security camera images up." Rei waited for Kenny and Kai began typing in pin codes on the cupboards.
"Here," he said, throwing Rei an earpiece as he put one on himself. "Kenny should be able to get you on that."
"Guys," they heard Tyson say. "There's a couple of Uzis on the passenger seat in the black Porsche." Kai went to the cupboard where the keys were hanging. He quickly found the Porsche keys and ran to the car. He picked up a pair of Uzis and a few clips.
"OK," Kenny voice came through the earpieces. "I think there's about twenty of them. There's five trying to get through the gate by the safe, ten in the main hall and five walking towards… the garage. Are you guys ready?"
"We're always ready," Kai smirked as he gave Rei one of the Uzis. He crept over to the other side of the room and hid behind a workbench, making sure he could still see Rei who was crouched behind the Porsche.
"Right, number one by the BMW." Kai nodded to Rei, who stuck his Uzi in the air and fired a few clips. The guard turned around quickly to where the noise had come from, giving Kai a clear shot of his back.
"Got him. Next."
"Stood by the Mini Cooper."
"I've got this one," Rei murmured as he lay on a trolley board, slid under the Mini and shot the man on his way past. He carried on under the Audi and rolled off next to Kai.
"OK, number three by the Range Rover and number four next to the Lamborghini." They stood up, took aim and fired, leaving a very confused looking guy in the middle of the room.
"I'll distract him," Rei whispered. He stood up and ran around the edge of the room dodging the bullets. Unbeknown to the final guard, Kai had jumped up onto the Audi and was stood behind him. Rei rolled behind a Ferrari and the guard stopped firing and waited. Kai tapped him on the shoulder and before he knew what was going on, Kai had hit him around the head with his gun, knocking him out.
"You're done," they heard Kenny say.
"How are they going with the safe?"
"They've just blown up the glass doors and now they've started on the gate. The corridors up to the main hall are clear; you're OK to make your way up there."
"Right." They made their way silently back up to the main hall and hid behind the same corner they had earlier.
"Look, it's Petrovsky," Rei whispered.
"What a surprise."
"You take care of him; I'll deal with the ten in the hall." Rei went to leave.
"Rei wait. Here," Kai threw him his Uzi. "I'll use this," he said, picking up the rapier he'd left there earlier.
"Right, thanks." He flashed him a smile and quietly headed towards a small set of stairs in a corridor to their left. Kai waited for a while until he saw Rei appear on a corridor upstairs. He watched as he crept up to the edge of the landing and paused for a moment. Rei looked up at the chandelier hanging above the main hall and waited for the perfect moment. As two men passed underneath it, Rei shot the support and it came crashing down on them. The other guards in the room all began firing in Rei's direction.
"What's going on?" Kai heard Petrovsky shout.
"Sir, it's Kon."
"Well get him and bring him to me then!" Two guards came rushing out of the room to help the others in the hall.
"Kai, you're OK to get to Petrovsky now," Kenny said. He crept silently into the room where Petrovsky was now trying to crack the safe, but failing.
"Having a few problems are we?" He smirked. Petrovsky looked up from the safe and spotted Kai.
"Actually I am, but I think you might be able to help me out." He clicked his fingers and two guards appeared behind Kai, holding their guns to his head. "Drop the rapier." Kai reluctantly dropped the sword and watched as Petrovsky picked it up. "Now, tell me the combination."
"You underestimate us Petrovsky," Kai laughed.
"What are you talking about?" Just as he spoke there was a gunshot and the two guards dropped dead next to Kai, who looked over his shoulder and nodded at Rei.
"Alright Kai?" He shouted across the hall. Petrovsky was fuming. He picked up the radio on the table.
"I thought I told you to catch him!" He shouted into it.
"We're trying sir," came the reply. "But we've lost him."
"Yes I can see that! He's in the hall, now GET HIM!"
"Yes sir." In his anger, Petrovsky turned on Kai with the rapier he had taken off him earlier. However, they had seen this coming so Rei had thrown Kai his sword before running from the guards into the garden. Kai blocked Petrovsky's attack easily, catching him off guard. He took this opportunity and began attacking forcefully, pushing him back.
"I expected more of a challenge from you," Kai smirked. "It seems you're not as good as everyone says you are."
"You little brat!" Petrovsky spat as he swung his rapier at Kai's head. Nevertheless, Kai was able to dodge it easily.
"Better, but still not quick enough." Kai began attacking again with both speed and power. Petrovsky was obviously not ready for this as Kai slashed his cheek effortlessly.
"I'll get you for this!"
"You can't keep up with me," Kai laughed.
"I have other ways of getting to you. I'll test my theory." He went over to the table and picked up the radio again.
"Forget bringing Kon to me, when you find him, kill him." Kai almost dropped his sword at this. "Ah, I thought that might throw you off." Petrovsky wasted no time in getting his revenge and swiped Kai's bare stomach with his rapier. "You care too much for him obviously. I can't see why, he might be a pretty sight but he's weak and-" Kai snapped at this and vigorously pushed Petrovsky back.
"Don't you dare say that again," he threatened, pushing him against the wall and holding his sword to his neck. "Rei is not weak."
"I seem to have… touched a nerve," Petrovsky smirked.
"Shut up you bastard! You leave Rei out of this or I'll…"
"What? What are you going to do? Kill me?"
"Don't tempt me," Kai breathed pushing the rapier even closer to his neck.
"Sir," the radio bleeped. "We got him." Kai's heart sank.
"Rei…" He glared at Petrovsky and then made his decision. He dropped the rapier and ran to the garden, knocking out anyone that got in his way. He sprinted out into the rain and almost jumped for joy at the sight that met his eyes. Rei was down, but definitely not dead. He was trying to get up whilst holding his leg. He fell back onto the fall and cried out in pain. Kai ran over to him and crouched down at his side. He helped Rei up, then wrapped his arms around him and hugged him tightly. Luckily for Rei it was dark as there was a blush creeping up on his cheeks.
"I thought you were dead," Kai whispered, letting Rei go, but still supporting him. "What happened?"
"One of them shot me in the leg," he said, moving his hand so Kai could see his bloodstained trousers. "Did you stop Petrovsky?"
"Shit! Come on, we need to get back to the hall."
"Kai, just leave me here I'll-"
"No. I'll help you back come on." They went back to the hall as fast as they could, Rei holding Kai for support. However, when they got there the only people left were Tyson, Max and Kenny. They looked over to the safe. It was empty.
"They've gone," Tyson said. Kai looked over to Rei and sighed.
"Well they got what they came for."

Done! OK, this was very much like Tomb Raider, AGAIN. I watched the film last night and this is almost exactly the same. But there will be no more Tomb Raider references from now on. I hope…
Well, the computer's alive again, but it's slower now than it was before! U-_-. But anyway thanks for the reviews they got me through a miserable week at school. Know what I'm talking about?
Please review and have a nice weekend! (While I revise ~_^)
