GOB: I'm back and better than before!

Kai: .....

GOB: What ¿ ? ¿

Kai: Why do I always have other plans, or something else in mind?

GOB: Because I want you to, so there. Disclaimer now, please!

Kai: If she owned Beyblade, do you think she'd be writing a fanfic? No, I didn't think so either.

Kai frowned and kept walking through the mall, noticing, with slight amusement, as he was recognized. But no one dared bother him. He was to deep in thought...

"They all made it through... I shouldn't be surprised, after all, it was expected. We are, or rather were, the best. But what do we do if it happens again? I know Gideon's watching Us, waiting until it happens again. Then He will strike... We almost lost last time, and back then We had the help of... I won't let Their deaths be in vain! I will not let Them win, not let HIM win! But the truth may come out... Are We truly ready to face it? Am I ready? So many questions, and precious few answers... and what of the Bladebreakers? If the truth comes out, will I abandon them once more? For Others I deem more worthy? Others I care for more? Others... who I have not seen or contacted in years? Or will I abandon the Others for my Teammates? But the main question is... What if I can't save myself? If I can't save myself, how will I save the Others? I am Their leader, it is my duty... but will I perform my duties? Or succumb to the pure evil that sets itself before me? For that is what They, no HE, is... How do I defeat pure evil itself? And is it I, or We, that must rise above and defeat this evil... No matter what happens, I am a Phoenix, I will rise from the ashes... Just like They said, those who first showed me the true power of Dranzer and myself, those... who I never knew... be they human or not... I will arise... I must!"

(A/N: Please tell me what you thought of that part in particular! Cuz there are going to be a lot of thoughts! And no, the 'others' and the 'they' are NOT the same people!!!)

"Hey!" Jessica shouted happily, pointing towards a table near the back, "Aren't those the Soaring Eagles? Come on! Let's go say hi to them!" And with that she was off! The others followed her as she proceeded to introduce everybody...

"... and finally, that's Max, Ray, Chief, and Tyson! They're the Bladebreakers! Kai's also a member, the leader in fact! But he ditched us, meanie!"

The tallest boy stood up, (A/N: just guess what he looks like! To lazy to think right now ^_^ )

"Hey! We're the Soaring Eagles! I'm Rory, the team leader. The black haired girl is Li-anne, the blonde guy is Jace, and the carrot-top is Chrissy!" They all said hello, and Chrissy uttered a death threat at the mention of 'carrot-top'.

"We're waiting for our friends, the Bey-Riders!" Jace said, as all the others sat at tables nearby. Four bladers came up to them.

"Hey all!" A girl with a southern drawl greeted, "We're the Bey-Riders! I'm Anna, the guy next to me is Victor, the brunette's Sandra, and rainbow here's Victoria!" Anna grinned at the multi-colored hair of her teammate, who just laughed and said,

"No need for introductions on your part! We know who you all are! Now here's the biggest question I have to ask..."

"What's that?" Tyson asked eagerly, to which Sandra replied,

"Where's Kai? We want his autograph!" All the guys sweatdropped, and Victor muttered, as he took a seat next to Ray, "God save me... I'm on a team with three girls and no other guys. I should be in heaven, but no. I'm stuck with these freaks!" Ray laughed, but quickly covered it up as the girls glared at him.

They all got to know one another, then headed back to their hotel together. The trip back was pretty uneventful, except for the fact that they got hopelessly lost...

(Back to Kai) {Onlookers POV} [Major weirdness ahead!]

I watched Him drift by deep in thought. I know He's remembering the horror. He'll fight alone, until He gets himself killed. When will He understand that it's not HIS battle, but OURS! I wish He would let Us help, let Me help. At least He's got His silent shadow, Tael (pronounced Tay-el). From what He told Me, Tael follows Him because of a certain prophecy, and that Tael's not human. I wish I knew more, but that was all I got out of Him. He is so damn distant and stubborn at times! But what should I expect after what happened. He blames himself, and sees it as His duty to finish it, to protect Us! I see him walking through the crowds. But He is alone... Even in a crowd He is alone...

{Different onlooker}

There He goes again. Such unbelievable arrogance, but behind the mask, their is more emotion than comprehensible. I shouldn't be angry at Him, but a part of me is. He always has to do things alone, He doesn't realize how much I care. I wish He would open His damn crimson eyes and SEE! He's doing his best to help Us, but instead, He's hurting Himself. Something that pains Us all. Though I would never admit it, seeing Him so hurt makes Me feel horrible, His pain is Our pain, but He doesn't realize that. How can someone who doesn't miss a thing, not see how those close to Him care? For We do, all of Us. And We always will. Whether that arrogant bastard wants it or not!

{Finally, Kai's POV}

I can sense Tael following me. Though he is never seen, I know he's there, following me, watching me, strange that the feeling comforts me. I know I am quite lucky to have such a loyal shadow, for that is all I can call him. I have no idea what he is. But I don't care. He knows more about me than my own flesh and blood. He knows my mind inside out, my soul inside out, and even the deepest, darkest crevices of my heart. I thought that I was all alone, but I know I'm not. I have Dranzer, I have Tael, I have the Others. And I have my teammates. Though I would die before admitting it, those morons have grown on me, and I would protect them. I will be there for them, whether they know it or not...

(Hey, are they still lost?)

"Tyson, we should have known better than to follow you! You just got us even more lost!"

"Shut up Johnny! Do you have a better idea?" The young bluenette glared at the red-head, who smirked and said,

"Yeah, I do. Why don't we just ask him?" Johnny smirked and pointed to a familiar two toned bluenette, who was walking towards them, once he reached them, he said,

"Let me guess, you're lost?" And with that he began walking away, motioning the others to follow, which they did.

OK, OK. I think I did quite well on Kai's thoughts and the 'onlooker' POV's. But I need your info! Oh, and just try and guess who the onlookers are! Don't worry! All will be revealed, just stay tuned and review! BTW, the 'Others' and the 'others' are NOT the same people, hence the capital and non-capital 'o/O'. Bye!
