Chapter 12 – Damn That Feeling!

Have you ever had that feeling, where you think something horrible, and life altering is about to happen? Well, that's how I'm feeling right now. Ever since I had broken my two brothers out of that horrible abbey, I've had this feeling. All week. Every second, minute, hour and day! It's enough to drive anyone nuts! And I certainly wasn't an exception. The only thing that had brought sunshine to my life was Kai. We had finally admitted love for one another. Sure, it was kind of mushy. With the situation of me running off to the abbey, and everyone being worried for my safety. But Dana. Oh poor Dana. She was the worst. Stressed out was one easy way to put how she probably was while I was on my little rescue mission. But now, I actually didn't know where she was. Probably with Tala somewhere...alone. Hm, sounds awfully peculiar if you ask me. But it isn't my business to intrude. Even though I really want to.

What was I doing now? That's a whole other ball game right there! Once again I had blown of The Bladebreakers, not including Kai of course, who was with me. Right now, Kai and I were actually at the park, watching my brothers kick the others kids little whiny butts in beyblade battles. Boy did they take after me. Crush your opponent like a bug is my motto. And that's exactly what good old Ryan and Scott were doing. But I had taught them better then to break the other kid's blades, if they did that, then I would definatly give them at least two extra hours of training. Oh, and not regular training. This training was with my father. He would take us into the dojo, and teach us how to harness our demonic powers. Scott and Ryan of course, being much younger, were having trouble. But me on the other hand. I had almost, emphasize almost, achieved complete control over my abilities, but not totally...unfortunately. Once I do, father says I'll be just as powerful as any full-blooded demon! Oh boy I certainly can't wait for that day!

But, that's when I felt it. For about the fifteenth time today. A great amount of power within Bakuten. Not the type a bit-beast would possess. No. This was much greater. Then it hit me like a ten-ton frate train. Demon. A demon was either coming, or was already here. I could smell the reeking stench of his sent. Wait. There were two of them. Both almost equally as powerful! And if they found me...well, I wouldn't want to know what would happen. I feared for Rei's safety, for my brothers' safety...for Kai's safety. Now I knew, that today would be that life-altering day. This day...would change the course of my existence...forever. Whether it good, or bad...it will change everything! And somehow, some way, I knew it would be mostly bad.

I think Scott and Ryan felt it too, since they had declined all the offers the other children were giving them for a battle. I then told Azura to lead them home, where they would be safe with my father.

Azura. My faithful bit-beast. The one creature that could ever replace my mother. That proves just how great she is to me. But...no matter what that amazing panther does, she will never...ever replace mother.

My mother. An amazing woman! Well...was an amazing woman. She was only a human. With no demonic blood in any of her veins. She was a beauty...from what I can remember at least. Her eyes were an amazing shade of deep red. Just like Kai's. Her name was Suki. The meaning of her name was loved one. And boy was she loved. By me, father, and everyone in our village where I grew up. The unfortunate thing is...I never said goodbye to her. Never gave her one last 'I love you mom'. Why? Well...I was taken. Taken by that damn Voltaire to his stupid abbey! And while I was in that retched place, my mother passed away while giving birth. Birth to Scott and Ryan. Poor boys. They never got to know just how wondrous their mother was.

Taking a quick look around, I could see that both my brothers were gone. Good. That's two things I didn't have to worry about. Now I just had to think of what to do with Kai. I actually wasn't too concerned about him. He's a tough boy right? Yeah, you better believe he is! He should be after living a life with me in it! But...neither of us were always the way we are today. To say the least, I used to be a weak, shy, frightened little girl. That was way back when however. When I was just a little six year old. I remember the day I was first sent to that damn abbey. The day I first met Kai. I remember it as if it were just an event that occurred last week.

It was the afternoon after I had been taken from the White Tiger village. After I had met that damn man. Boris. Oh he acted all dandy and cheerful. And of course I was dense enough to fall for it. Anyone at the age I was would've. Ah, now it's time for one of those good old flashbacks....

"Ruby is it?" That purple haired old coot asked me. Since I was too shy to answer him directly, I responded by nodding yes. "Well Ruby. The other children here..." Boris gestured his hand towards the large courtyard. Where many children were freely chatting, or beyblading. Both equally good.

"Are all around your age. I have to go now, but you should go and get to know more of the children." He then pushed me gently down the stairs, and into the courtyard before leaving. That's when I felt like a sore thumb. Considering I was the only girl! But, since I didn't want to be a loner, I had no other choice, but to simply wander around, and see what type of people were there. Curiosity got the best of me once I noticed two kids having a beyblade battle. Of course there was a crowd of even more over excited children around them, but that didn't really matter to me. So, I walked up to the back of the small crowd, and peered over the heads of the kids blocking my view. The two kids that were blading looked around my age. One had short, curly blonde hair. And the other had a really messy chestnut brown head of hair. The blonde was wearing a really poofy dark red winter jacket with deep blue jeans and black running shoes. While the brunette, had on a not so poofy dark blue and jacket, and also had on black pants, with red shoes. After watching the seemingly exciting battle drone on, the blonde finally came out as the winner.

"Yes! Who wants to get beaten by me next?" The blonde looked over the kids in the crowd, who all backed off a little bit. But of course, there just had to me some little jackass kids who had to find me, and push me to the front of the circle.

"Hey! Why don't you break this girls blade?" One child said as he shoved me. I tried to back away but they just kept on being the little shits they were!

"Uh..." I shakily began, "No thank you, I'll just be leaving now if you don't mind."

"Hey..." A young voice was heard from the back of the crowd. All children turned their heads. They then got pushed, or simply moved aside as an unfamiliar (well to me at the time) two toned blue haired boy came walking through the children, and stopped beside me. I looked him over with my red- gold eyes. He was a little bit taller than me, so I quickly made a guess that he was older too.

"You new here?" He asked me. I stayed silent for a while, but then came back to reality,

"Uh. Yeah, I am." He then introduced himself as Kai Hiwatari. We got along so well. Hell, Kai and I even made up a new game. Throw rocks at Boris. Sure Boris didn't like our little version of fun, but we sure did! Then Kai just had to pull that whole Black Dranzer fiasco. And that was actually the last time I saw him. Well, till now that is. But there's no time like the present right? Even though the present was pretty damn boring at the moment. That's it. I have to find something to do to take my mind off what I sensed before. I know! Time to spy on Tala and Dala. Screw the privacy crap!
