Nikki: Hello to you all
Tala: why such a nice welcoming?
Nikki: (breaks down) I'm in the middle of watching G-rev, I hate it! Why did they spilt up? Why do they keep showing the episode where they split up? They do it just to hurt me don't they? Don't they?
Bryan: she's very emotional right down
Nikki: Damn straight! Why did Rei go back to the white tigers? WHY!
Bryan: I don't know!
Tala: ask him?
Rei: I... I...I don't know...
Kai: SHUT UP!
All: (silence)
Kai: thank you... Nikki the reason Rei left to join the white tigers was because he thought that he would be able to win if he left the bladebreakers...
Nikki: but he was proved wrong!
Kai: yes and he will never do it again because he lost so miserably because Lee couldn't handle battling with such a great blader.
Rei: you think I'm a great blader?
Kai: I don't think it, I know it...
Nikki: ahhhh! That's so cute
Bryan: Nikki, disclaimer, now
Nikki: ok, ok lets see. Hmm whom do we have left?
Kokujo: I'm back, I heard that you needed someone to do your disclaimer so I brought the master from Duel Masters to help you out
Nikki: once again thanks cuz, you always have my back unlike anther cousin I know (stares at Bryan)
Bryan: neh
The Master: so what exactly do I do?
Nikki: I don't like you, you abused Hakuo. But you're all I've got so read the cue cards over there
The Master: Nikki does not own Beyblade, maybe one day when she's not as thick and has a lot more money she will be able to buy it but the chances of that are very thin indeed
Nikki: that's not what I wrote. Oh well it gets the point across. Read on...
Kai's POV
I closed my eyes and focused all my attention onto the song that was blasting from the personnel CD player. I knew every word off by heart and had to resist the urge to sing along, it wasn't that I couldn't sing. I had once been in a band as the lead singer and guitarist but I was kinda shy about it. Yeah Tala was shocked at that one. 'You shy?' His voice still echoed in my head. Many was the time that I had sat in my room and written a song about my feelings for Rei. I think they were all in a draw somewhere and I was debating with myself whether to show him or not. I decided on no. If only just, because. It wasn't that I didn't want him to know about everything that had happened in my life pre him it was that I believed some things were best kept hidden the fact that I was shy being one of them.
I held down the smile when I felt his lips brush against mine, begging for a kiss. I ignored the plea and pretended to be asleep I could tell that this greatly amused the kitten. His phoenix was asleep, the question he was no doubt asking was what to do with me now. He laughed quietly and although I had the music to contend with I could hear everything that was going on around me. I think the main thing Rei was debating was whether or not to wake me. He drummed his hands on the couch a few times whilst he tried to puzzle out what to do. In the end all he did was kiss my lips again before rolling over and putting on the T.V.
I hit the stop button on the personnel CD player and slid off the headphones. I gently placed it all on the floor and turned my attention back to the kitten sat on my lap. I laughed silently when I saw that he had the book I had given to him in his hands and was flicking through the pages as he tried to puzzle out what it said. Only knowing one word of Russian would be a major disadvantage to the raven haired beauty but I didn't think he cared that he couldn't understand it. The fact that I had given it to him to prove my love was more than enough for him. That's one of the many things I loved about Rei, he never took anything for granted.
I sighed as quietly as I could. He had that Goddamn clip in his hair again, I didn't like that clip, I loved his hair and I loved it even more when it was down. Yet he always put it up. I was starting to suspect that he was doing it just to tease me, I laughed at the thought of my kitten teasing me. Maybe he wasn't as innocent as I originally had believed. Maybe everything thing that he did was just an act, masking his true nature. His teasing and to some extent sadistic ways. I slowly and carefully moved my hands down to the knot in his sash. He laughed and rolled over in my arms so that he came face to face with me.
"You were never asleep were you?" I smiled at him and gently stroked the side of his face. He sighed and fell onto me, burying his head in my chest. I fiddled with the clip in the back of his hair and gently removed it letting the beautiful raven locks flow out over his back. I picked a few strands of hair and twirled them around my finger. I loved this; just having him close meant so much to me.
I smiled at Tala and Bryan as they made their way into the lounge, hand in hand, they smiled at me and I watched as Bryan sat down in the seat opposite us. Tala smiled at him and let go of his hands as he walked into the kitchen.
"I take it you had fun" he laughed slightly at what I had said and nodded his head.
"Oh yeah" I shook my head from side to side in disbelief, it seemed to me like having sex was all they did. Then again I couldn't blame them; they had been away from each other for a long time, I guess like me and Rei they were making up for lost time. I looked down at Rei and stroked through his hair again, I think it was very possible that he had fallen asleep. Either that or he was using my own trick against me, how very cunning of him.
Tala sighed loudly as he fell back into the arms of his koi, I smiled at him as he took a sip of the water that he had just got from the kitchen. He placed the water down on the table and looked back at Bryan questioningly. Bryan laughed and shook his head. I think I knew what Tala wanted. He sighed and leant back against Bryan as he watched the T.V. I tore my gaze away from them and looked down at Rei. He seemed so small as I held him in my arms and I couldn't help but compare him to a kitten.
"Rei?" I whispered quietly and gently tilted his head so that I could see him. He smiled at me and ran his hand through my hair. I laughed quietly when he reached for the book that he had been looking at before and began to flick through it again. I slid it out of his hands and held it just out of his reach.
"Kai!" he whined as he tried to snatch the book away from me, I laughed and held it higher as he hit my arm.
"You can't even read it"
"So, I love it, you gave it to me" I smiled at him and lowered my arm but didn't give it to him. Instead I threw it over the other side of the room and pinned Rei down to the couch so that he couldn't get to it if he tried.
"Ow!" I looked over at Tala as he rubbed the back of his head, where the book that I had thrown had hit him. I hadn't been aiming for him but it was a nice bonus. "Stop it, old Russian books hurt the most" he folded his arms across his chest and pouted. Apparently Tala didn't like books, especially when they were being thrown at him. Bryan laughed and Tala shot him a death glare, this had absolutely no effect on the falcon except that he began to laugh harder. "BRYAN!" Bryan coughed slightly and stopped himself from laughing by biting down on his hand.
"I'm sorry wolfie" he whispered as he kissed the back of Tala's head as lightly as he could to stop any more harm coming to the flame haired teen.
"Is it bleeding?" Bryan, Rei and I held back our laughter as we stared at Tala with the most serious faces we could manage.
"Yes it is" Rei explained causing the wolf to whimper slightly
"Really badly" I added
"Yeah, it's turned your whole hair red"
"BRYAN!" Tala growled and stormed off into the kitchen. I guess Tala didn't like being made fun of but he loved to make fun of us. It was all justified; we were merely getting our revenge on the wolf.
"3...2...1..." Bryan counted down, at the sound of three Tala stormed back into the lounge and sat on the couch next to Bryan. Yes, next to, not on, next to. Bryan chuckled slightly at his wolf and began to count down from three, this time however he used his fingers to indicate to us how the time was passing. The second Bryan had made it to three Tala spun round on his seat and threw his arms around his falcon. Bryan smiled and wrapped his arms around the smaller boy as he winked at us.
"Damn it! I can't stay mad at you! Or Kai! And no one could ever be mad at him" he pointed at Rei and Rei laughed from where he lay underneath me. "He's too cute" I eyed Tala suspiciously at what he had said.
"You do know he's my koi, right?" Tala shrugged and winked at Rei, Rei winked back and I glared down at the kitten. He smiled innocently and kissed my neck "Goddamnit for once Tala's right, no one can be mad at you" I sighed and forced my lips onto his. My tongue brushed against his lips, begging him for entry into his mouth. He granted it to me and I slid my tongue into his mouth, searching every part of the oral cavity.
"Aww!" Tala and Bryan chorused. I smiled inwardly. Everything was perfect. I had my koi and my best friends in the entire world all living in my house. What more could a guy ask for? There was a loud rapping at the door but neither Rei nor I wanted to break away from each other. Bryan sighed and pushed himself up from where he was sat. He walked past us and leant down to our level.
"Don't worry, I'll get it"
Rei's POV
I pushed into Kai searching for even more depth to the kiss that I had become so dependent on. I seriously believed that if he stopped kissing me for a second I would die. I loved him so much and he was finally mine, I could do whatever I wanted with him and he could do whatever he wanted with me. Kai broke away from me and gently stroked down the side of my face. I fell into his touch and ran my hands along his back. I was mentally cursing the black shirt that he was wearing. I wanted to look at the tattoo of Dranzer on his back, to run my hands across his bare chest but when he was wearing a shirt I couldn't do that. However the one thing I wanted more than anything else at this moment was my book.
"You're thinking about that Goddamn book aren't you?" I nodded and he smiled down at me before getting up and walking over to where the book was sat. He brought it back over to me and ran his hand over the cover before gently handing it to me. I smiled and hugged it tightly to my chest. All this may sound sad but that book was very important to me. I loved it because it reflected Kai's love and mine.
"Who is it Bry?" Tala asked as he walked over to where his koi was stood opening the door.
"A women I have never seen before in my life" he explained as he met his koi halfway and slipped his arms around him in a passionate hug. I stared over at the door and smiled when Kai stood next to me and began to play with my hair. I liked it when he played with my hair.
"Mom?" I questioned when the women Bryan had been talking about stepped into the house with a man I had never met stood at her side.
"Rei!" I stood up and she ran over to me throwing her arms around me in a protective and slightly suffocating hug. I smiled at her when she pulled away from me and noted the worry in her eyes. She grabbed hold of my shoulders holding me in place and stared into my eyes. "Are you ok?" I smiled again and nodded my head before removing her hands from my shoulders.
"I'm fine" she ignored me and glanced around the room. I wasn't sure what she was doing here or how she had known that I was here but maybe she had wanted to see me so much that she'd tracked me down, she was a lawyer after all. "Oh, sorry" I apologised when I realised that she didn't know who anyone was and no one really knew her either. "Mom, Tala, Tala my mom" Tala smiled and lifted his hand in a civil greeting which I really didn't expect from Tala.
She ignored him and started to glance round the room again, Tala looked back at Bryan questioningly and Bryan shrugged at him. I didn't know what was wrong with my mom either, she was usually sweet, polite and welcoming everything a mother should be but today she wasn't acting like that. I sighed and pushed the thought away, maybe she was just shocked to be back or maybe she didn't like the looks of Tala. I brushed a few strands of hair away from my face and moved on.
"Uh...this is Bryan Kuznetsov" I pointed out Bryan and he smiled weakly but my mother didn't even look at him.
"Homophobe" Tala coughed as he pulled Bryan's arms even tighter across his waist. I hoped that she wasn't homophobic, I knew that my father was but he had never accepted me anyway so his opinion didn't much matter to me. But I wanted my mom to feel happy for me, I wanted her to understand that I was in love with Kai, so what if we were both male. Love was love you can't change your feelings and I wouldn't want to. I coughed slightly and hugged the book in my arms tighter. If I had to choose between her and Kai, I'd hate to say this but Kai would win hands down. I was soo in love with him and wanted to be with him for the rest of my life and if she couldn't accept that then she couldn't accept me. It was who I was. It was my life. I wasn't going to change just because my parents didn't like it.
"And this is Kai... I have something..."
"Kai?!" She snapped back to reality at the mention of Kai's name and I nodded. I wasn't sure why she was so interested in Kai but I had to explain to her who he was and how much he meant to me and her acknowledging his existence would make doing so a lot easier.
"Yeah, hi I'm Kai Hiwatari" he stepped forward and offered her his hand. I jumped slightly when she slapped him and heard him laugh quietly as he placed his hand on the side of his face where the impact had been made.
"What was that for?!" I snapped as I turned to face Kai, I lifted my hand to his face and gently ran my thumb over where he had been hit. He smiled at me and removed my hand placing it back onto the cover of the book.
"It's ok Rei, after all the things that happened to me at the abbey. A slap feels like a walk in the park" I smiled at him and turned back to face my mother. I wasn't sure what was going on today, I hadn't even introduced Kai as my koi yet and she had already started lashing out. What would she do once I explained how seriously I felt about him?
"What the fuck is her problem?" Bryan asked as he and Tala walked over to where Kai and I were stood. They stood on either side of us and I couldn't help but think that they were acting like our bodyguards. I know this was my mother and everything but to me it didn't seem like she was in the right state of mind and knowing that Tala and Bryan were there to help us out if anything got out of hand meant a lot to me.
"Rei what are you doing?"
"What am I doing?" I think it was fair to say that my mom had officially lost her mind "You don't just barge into someone's house, ignore their friends and then when they're kind enough to introduce themselves to you, turn around and slap them!" She stared at me for a while before looking over at the man stood in the doorway and shaking her head. "Mom I have something to tell you about me and Kai" I stepped back and found his hand, holding it tightly in mine before continuing with my speech.
"Don't!" She snapped angrily hoping to stop me from going any further with my discussion but I wasn't going to.
"No! Mom, I'm in love with Kai. I'm not sure whether you can accept that or not but I love him more than anything else in the world and I just want you to be happy for me." She sighed and placed her hands back on my shoulders, forcing me to stare into her eyes. I didn't understand where the sudden change of heart had come from but she had always told me that whatever I wanted to do with my life. Whatever choices I made she would be ok with it but she wasn't acting like she was ok with my preferences.
"I know you think that..." I knocked her hands away and shook my head from side to side as I laughed under my breath. This was pathetic, she didn't have to accept the fact that I was gay but the least she could do was acknowledge it.
"I don't think it, I know it. I love Kai Hiwatari and he loves me back" I smiled slightly when I felt him squeeze my hand as if to reassure me that he was there.
"You're confused..." I growled at her, I loved my mom I really did but I loved Kai and I couldn't see why she refused to believe that I was in love with another guy. It wasn't the worst thing in the world and yet her and my father were acting like it was.
"No I'm not! If anyone's confused it's you"
"Rei, your father told me about what has happened to you"
"He did?" Tala and Bryan chorused from where they were stood, we all shared the same look of shock and confusion. Had my father really owned up to what he had done? If so, why? He had gotten away with it, my mom never had to find out about what had gone on whilst she'd been away but he'd told her. I sighed and stared up at her.
"Yes Rei, why do you think I came to find you? I was worried about you. Worried about what he would do to you" I collapsed slightly when I saw that she was pointing at Kai. I couldn't believe that my mom thought that the guy that had saved me had been hurting me. Tears stung the back of my eyes, now I understood. My stepfather had told my mother that Kai had been abusing me. I should have known that he would never admit what he had done.
"Jesus Christ" Tala muttered as he backed away, something was telling me that he was originally going to say something worse but managed to get this out instead.
"That's seriously fucked up!" Bryan shouted before he and Tala both resorted to talking in Russian. I looked up at Kai, he just stood there his beautiful crimson eyes glazed and listless. I couldn't even tell if he was breathing and I could see that the news hadn't quite sunk in.
"No...no...you've got it wrong" she sighed and grabbed hold of me draping her arm over my shoulders and pulling me into her. I couldn't look at her, just continued to stare at the book in my arms hoping that the answers and solutions would somehow miraculously appear from the cover. No such luck.
"I know that you're confused Rei. You've been made to believe that your father had been abusing you but that isn't true. I don't know what his motives for this were. Why he wanted to turn you against us I'm not sure but I need to take you back home. We just want you to be safe"
"I think you should take a better look at your husband lady!" Tala growled as he walked over to Kai and placed a hand on his shoulder in an attempt to bring the phoenix back from where ever he had gone.
"Kai would never hurt Rei" Bryan explained as he joined Tala next to Kai.
"Kai..." I went to get up when I saw the lone tear slid down Kai's cheek smudging the blue paint and showing how hurt he really was. I choked on my sobs, I couldn't take that my phoenix was crying. Everything had been perfect a few hours ago, now it seemed like my world was crashing down on me. Burying me in a pit of pain and suffering that was tearing me apart.
"Come on Rei, we're going home" she helped me up and I broke free from her grip and ran over to Kai. He wrapped his arms around me but he still wasn't there, my phoenix was lost in his feelings, drowning in a sea of emotions and I couldn't help him cause I was doing the same.
"You can't do this" I looked up to see tears sliding down Tala's face, he sniffed loudly and turned around throwing himself into Bryan's chest as loud sobs escaped from the wolfs lips.
"Oh I can, Rei is sixteen he can't leave home till he's eighteen. Another thing is I am his legal guardian and I don't consent to him leaving home at this age. The last point I am going to make is that he is being abused here, he is not safe in this household this gives me the right to remove him from here"
"Does that look like he's being abused here?" Bryan asked as he pointed at us, "if, and I accentuate the if, Kai was abusing Rei don't you think he'd want to get out of here. Yet Rei can't even bring himself to leave Kai's arms" Bryan tried made his voice strong but he was too upset and at several points in his speech he began to break down.
"Kai's manipulated Rei, he's confused. He doesn't know what he's doing. I'm not going to discuss this matter anymore if you want to take it further you will do so in court, Alan" The man that had come with my mother walked over to where I was stood and practically pulled me out of Kai's arms. I tried to fight against him but he was just too strong. I hugged the book tighter and closed my eyes. I wanted this to be a dream, I wanted to wake up and see Kai lying next to me but it didn't happen. This was actually happening it wasn't a dream.
"How can you do this to your son?" Tala shot coldly his eyes slightly red from crying but ice cold and deadly serious
"I'm saving him"
Kai's POV
I choked on my sobs as Rei screamed out for me, I wanted to help him I really did but I couldn't get myself to move from this spot. 'This can't be happening, this can't be happening' I kept repeating over and over again but it was happening and there was nothing I could do. I could hear Tala crying behind me and continued to watch as they took the raven haired Neko-jin away.
"Rei..." was the only thing I could manage to say, he stared over at me and I saw the tears staining his cheeks. How could this be happening to us? What had we done wrong? I wanted to keep him here with me. But his mom was the worlds best lawyer there was no way I would be able to battle against her in a court of law. My reputation didn't help me either, I was Kai Hiwatari, grandson to Voltaire Hiwatari and like Tala had been dumped with the label 'unstable'.
"KAI!" Rei called out to be again as he tried to escape the two hundred-pound mans grasp. Everything about the past few days flashed through my eyes, it was as if I was dying but then again maybe a part of me was. Rei had become part of me and now they were taking him away, it wasn't right, it was immoral. I was going to fight for him, screw my label, screw my reputation. I loved Rei Kon and I was going to get him back if I had to die in order to do it.
"I love you!" I called out to him as I ran over to the door, tears pouring from my eyes all the way. I stared in horror as his mom pushed him into the back of the car, now I could barely see anything, a wall of tears had built up around my eyes and the pain in my heart was intolerable. "I love you" I whispered as I fell to my knees with a thud. The car pulled out of the driveway and disappeared off down the road. I couldn't believe it. Just like that they had taken my kitten away.
"We'll fight for him Kai" Tala's voice was harsh and determined, he wasn't going to let me down he was going to stick by me through this. I needed that. I needed my friends in order to save my koi.
"We won't let them get away with it" Bryan sounded equally as determined but I couldn't think strategically just now I had lost the only person I had ever loved and it felt like he had been ripped straight from my beating heart. I threw my hands down against the floor. I couldn't take the emotional pain anymore and thought that physical pain would be better. But I couldn't feel the pain shoot through me. I couldn't feel my hands, I couldn't feel anything except for the throbbing in my heart. "REI!" I called out hoping somehow it would change what had just happened but it didn't.
"It'll be ok" Bryan explained as he crouched next to me on the floor and lightly placed his hand on my shoulder. I had known that something awful was going to happen but I never thought for a minute that they would take him from me. I wasn't sure whether I was alive, I couldn't feel anything, I was numb. It was as if I was in hell, lost in the flames as they ripped away at me. I wanted to be strong, to get up and fight. I was Kai Hiwatari that is what I had been taught to do but I couldn't even get up. I already missed the feel of his hair, his gentle touch as he brushed slate hair away from my forehead. His kiss, the electricity as his lips brushed against mine. And those shimmering golden eyes. I'd lost it all, I'd lost the will to go on.
