Silenced

Chapter 5

-

Zakuro frowned as she walked to Julia's house. She had her date today and it was at 8 but now it was only 6:30.

"Just great. How do I get myself in to thease messes? I knew I shouldn't have agreed on coming over…although…it's much better then being all alone…at home." She thought.

The very thought of her home made her cringe mentally.

School had been completely boring as usual and it was finally Friday so everyone was pretty happy with that atleast.

She was carrying a bag filled with the stuff and clothes she was going to wear on her date. Julia and the other girls insisted on helping.

"What are you doing?" a voice asked from behind her. Zakuro turned warily. "What?" she mouthed.

"I asked what you were doing…or should I say where you are going." the voice continued.

"Hello Kai…you need not sneak up on me it's no point." Zakuro mouthed.

"You have sharp senses…" Kai muttered. "And you have bad manners." Zakuro mouthed with a smirk. (You people are starting to forget that she can't talk aren't you?)

"If I have bad manners then Tyson is a saint." Kai said sarcastically. Zakuro would've laughed.

"First off…You sneak up on people. 2nd you eavesdrop on conversations…specifically Jules and mine at the mall. 3rd you are very cu…" Zakuro started but shut herself up and started a quick pace and ran off.

"Women…" Kai muttered in amusement shaking his head before going in the same direction Zakuro went in.

The other Bladebreakers were at Julia's house and he had to get his launcher. They were practicing at the twins' house thanks to Loretta who said that they wanted to see them train.

-

"Hello Zakuro! Come on in…everyone is in the backyard." Said Mrs. Aoyama the twins' mother smiling pleasantly at her. Zakuro smiled and gave a small obeisance in respect before walking to the back.

Julia and Loretta were arguing about something when Zakuro arrived. "Hey Z! Have you seen Hilary?" Bridget asked. "Yeah we haven't seen her since…" Ayu continued before glaring in Tyson's direction.

Tyson was not blading with Max and Ray. He was sitting at the far end of the back yard which contained a large pool, an outdoor kitchen, swings, and a garden.

Tyson had not found Hilary when he went after her and she had disappeared ever since. He had been sulking ever since.

Zakuro shook her head in a 'no' manner. She walked over to Tyson and placed a hand on his shoulder. "We'll find her. Don't worry." she mouthed. Tyson cracked a smile for the first time that day before lowering his head once more.

"You have to tell him!" Loretta snapped. "No I won't and you can't make me!" Julia yelled. "You will!" Loretta yelled back.

"What should I say huh? Oh Kai! I really wish you would reconsider! I mean I REALLY like you and I wish you would date me please please please! I HAVE A MAJOR CRUSH ON YOU! So would you PLEASE date me!" Julia said in a really sarcastic manner changing her voice to a high girlish pitch.

Loretta was cringing shaking her head in a no manner, making a shut up gesture. "I thought I said that I didn't date. Didn't I make it clear?" Kai cut in to Julia's ranting with a huge smirk.

Julia cringed making the exact face Loretta had. "No you didn't! I was only bluffing!" Julia snapped regaining composure before running inside and slamming the door.

"She really needs to get over me. I said I don't date." Kai said shaking his head once more.

Zakuro walked up to him with a smirk. "You did it again!" she mouthed.

"What were you going to say for number 3? I didn't quite catch that!" Kai sneered.

Zakuro made a move to hit him on the back of the head but wasn't quick enough. Kai caught her wrist in an iron grip.

"I said I didn't quite catch what you were about to say." He said with a smirk, "So why don't you tell me?"

Zakuro struggled to be released. Kai studied her appearance. Her hair was in two long braids up to her waist.

The dark blue bangs were fluttering softly in the wind and she had left two dark blue strands frame her face. The rest of her hair which was a lighter shade of blue were obviously in the two braids.

She was wearing a navy blue button up blouse and a white skirt just below her knees and a pair of navy sandals.

"LET GO!" Zakuro mouthed angrily. "Is something going on that we missed?" Loretta asked curiously amusement clear throughout her face.

"I don't want to tell you and I don't have to!" Zakuro snapped silently the dark blue in her eyes taking over.

Kai released her with a smirk. Zakuro would've growled but she just turned and went inside after Julia. Ray and Max stared as well as the other girls and Kenny. Even Tyson looked up.

"Quit staring it's none of your business!" Kai snapped in irritation. Loretta, Ayu and Bridget walked inside to help Zakuro get ready.

Ray and Max's battle ended with Ray victorious. "So…" Ray said sitting down next to Kai. Tyson had finally agreed to battle Max after a little coaxing.

"So what?" Kai snapped. "So…anything going on between you and the blue head inside?" Ray asked slyly.

"No. Anyway I thought I said it was none of your business. Besides, I don't like anyone and I won't ever even consider dating. It is a waste of time." Kai threw back.

"Alright, suit your self." Ray said with a smile standing up and going over to Kenny.

Kai glared at him. "What does Ray know anyway? I don't like anyone! For god's sake people can be so dense!"

-

Zakuro walked downstairs a deep blush on her face. Her hair was in one long braid the same dark strands had been left out once more. She was wearing a dark blue long sleeved blouse with a v neck. It had a stitched in light blue shirt underneath. She had a light blue skirt just above her knees and the same blue sandals.

A silver choker was around her neck and two silver bracelets on her wrists and one on her right ankle. She had silver dangling earrings from her ears and some light make up on her light face and skin. Her cheeks had a peachy pink tint to it and she had light pink lipstick. (Bleah! I hate make up! Oh well sorry if her outfit is…too descriptive.)

The guys stared starting from the top to the bottom. (eyeing her legs mostly –grins-)

"Stop staring!" she mouthed desperately, while tugging at the bottom of her skirt, cursing mentally to let Hilary choose the skirt.

Ray and Max and Kenny turned red. Tyson was practically drooling. Kai forced himself to look away.

/- Face it she's beautiful admit it!-/ said a voice.

/-Who the hell are you?-/ Kai replied in annoyance.

/- You don't even know your bit beast when you hear it? I'm ashamed.-/ the voice said mockingly.

/-Dranzer?-/ Kai asked.

/- No, I'm Emily from the All Stars and I want to say I love you!-/ Dranzer replied, voice dripping in sarcasm.

/-What do you want?!-/ Kai replied.

/-Just trying to get an answer from you. Admit that she's beautiful.-/

/-Yeah…she's drop dead gorgeous…no she isn't! I don't think so!-/ Kai said mentally kicking himself.

/-Denial.-/ Dranzer said immediately.

/-Shut up! Get out of my head!-/ Kai snapped.

/-You like her.-/ Dranzer said slyly.

/-Get out before I smash you to pieces!-/ Kai growled.

/-Alright but just so you know you can't smash me…it'll be your undoing. Later…-/ Dranzer left.

"Stupid annoyance." Kai thought in irritation, "I thought Dranzer would be much wiser and mature…he sounds so much like…great of course…he's connected to me…"

"Kai…Dude you in there? You're missing the hotness!" Tyson said waving a hand in front of his face.

"Shut up." Kai growled slapping his hand away. "I'm off! I have to meet Toji at the restraunt. Bye!" Zakuro mouthed before walking off.

"See you later. Have fun!" Ray said with a smile watching Kai slyly.

Kai frowned before turning around and pulling Dranzer out of his pocket. He eyed it slightly, making sure about something before placing it on his launcher. Before he pulled the rip cord he swore he saw Dranzer give off a glow.
