Chapter three

Understanding the Impossible

I woke up, stretching my arms up high and yawning a little. Rubbing my eyes, then attempted to get out of bed, but then tripping over a pillow next to my bunk.

"Yeeaaahh!" I yelped, rubbing my knee firmly, "Ouch, who the hell put that there?" I looked back at my bed, noticing a pillow was missing! In a huff I slammed the pillow back on my bed, then looked around noticing everyone had gone out. I opened the window, to breathe in the fresh morning air… To see Tyson talking to Ray.

"Hey you guys!" I shouted to them.

They both waved back, Ray stepped forward to block the sun in his eyes to see me clearer, "Hey Kiroku, wanna come down? We're about to go to the training area."

I giggled a little, "You bet! I'll be a few mins, I'm gunna get changed, so be right back!"

I closed the window immediately, and then reached for my suitcase under the bed. I grabbed my black denim jeans, black trainers, my red belt and pink t-shirt. After I got dressed, I put my blonde hair in a high ponytail as quickly as I could then ran to brush my teeth.

As I closed the door behind me, I saw Kai walking down the hallway. I didn't say anything… I wanted to, but… I didn't know what I was going to say to him. I think he knew I was there, because he turned round the corner and I could see he saw me in the corner of his eye. I raised an eyebrow then went into the opposite direction, to go outside to Tyson and Ray.

"How long was you?" Tyson said sighing.

I fell anime style and turned hesitant, "Girls take long brushing their hair… you know?"

"No I do not know!" Tyson replied.

Ray laughed a little, "Come on you two, let's go."

LATER IN THE TRAINING ARENA…

"Dragoon – ATTACK!" Tyson yelled at the top of his voice.

"Ha-ha! I'm laughing at you Tyson!" Daichi said, jumping.

This is the training arena, loads of beyblade Arena's in a hall, with tons of beybladers. I sat on a bench with Kenny, Max, Ray and a guy I just met called Brooklyn.

I and Brooklyn were talking about the meaning of beyblade, and how we were suddenly pushed into it because of our talent.

"So, what happened at the park then, which made Xicer, accept you into the Angel Tyrants?" Brooklyn asked, sitting back making himself a little more comfortable.

I sighed then relaxed my head back, "Well… You see… Siren, My bitbeast took over my whole body. Instead of me controlling her, she possessed me like some puppet, so really it wasn't me beybatteling. It was her all along… And y'know what, the scariest thing was that I had no control, so all those intense moves that my beyblade did was demonstrated by Siren."

Brooklyn gasped a little, "Are you serious?" Brooklyn took my beyblade from my hand, "Woah… is that truly possible? Could it just happen to anyone?"

I shrugged a little, "I have no idea, it only happened once though. But Xicer thinks it'll happen again, hence why he put me in his team."

Kenny scratched his head, "In theory maybe, in the meantime I think we should keep this to ourselves."

"You're right." I agreed.

"I could do some studying on your bitbeast if you want; maybe we'll find some awnsers. In time, if the results help in anyway, I suggest you talk to Hero; he can maybe coach you into controlling Siren, but with the same amount of power she controlled you with!" Kenny said, rapidly typing at his laptop.

I nodded in a little confusion, "Ok, sure – thanks Kenny!"

Kenny grinned, "Your welcome Kiroku!"

Brooklyn nodded over to Tyson and Daichi, "Daichi's going to win…"

I looked up from my hands with a little smile, "How'd you guess that?"

"Tyson is being too overconfident…" Brooklyn said smirking.

Later on…I started to just drift off thinking, thinking of nothing, I felt a little bored actually. I rested my head on my hand, still sitting on the bench. Daichi and Tyson were standing near me talking about the beybattle they just had, whilst Brooklyn was just chilling out outside the arena, Kenny sat beside me on his laptop talking to Max.

Suddenly a chill went down my spine; I looked around a little anxiously. And as I looked over by the entrance, there Kai was, just standing coldly. He looked over where I was, I looked away immediately, for some reason I felt uncomfortable.

"Hey…Kenny, why is Kai like that?" I asked quietly.

Kenny looked up at me curiously, "Kai is Kai, and I've never met another person like him. You'll get use to him…"

I looked down a little, then back at Kenny, "Whenever I see him, I can't tell what he's thinking, he's always looking so…"

"Emotionless?" Kenny said, finishing my sentence for me, as if he knew what I was going to say, "That's Kai for you, and you can't really ever tell what he's thinking, only in beybattles, where he's mostly aggressive or deceivingly quiet."

"I see," I said quietly under my breath, "Is that a bad thing?"

Kenny typed at his laptop, "Depends on how you look on it, and depends on how others take to him. Do you know about his past?"

"No…" I replied, sounding concerned.

Kenny told me about his past, and during halfway through the story I wanted to cry. Being raised like a soldier when he was so young? It sounds horrible! Is that why the way he is?

LATER IN THE BBA GARDENS…

Later In the day, I had decided to get through to Kai! I barely knew him, but it was about time I should get to know him! After a long talk with Kenny about him, I felt like I was about to try and understand the impossible. But anyways…

The BBA gardens are so peaceful; there are defined pebbled paths everywhere, with perfect grass lawns; bushes full of pretty flowers, a waterfountain in the middle and small little birds fly randomly everywhere. It's so peaceful… I stood by the waterfall, thinking about how I was going to talk to Kai. When talk of the devil…

"So you met Brooklyn…" Kai said, standing a little distantly behind me.

I didn't turn around, just kept my focus on the waterfountain, "Yeah."

"When you face Brooklyn, don't underestimate him." Kai said, walking to the fountain, standing next to me and then folding his arms.

"Right…!" I nodded to him and smiled.

I turned to him and smiled a little more, "Ever been to the arcade here?"

"…" Kai didn't reply, just folded his arms tightly.

I blinked a few times, expecting a reply, "Come with me!"

Kai raised an eyebrow, "What?"

"I said…-"

"I heard what you said." Kai interrupted.

"Then do you wanna?" I asked looking innocently into his eyes.

"What do you think?" Kai replied coldly.

I guessed hesitantly, "Umm, yes?"

"Clearly I don't, I'm not wasting my time playing some pathetic kids game!" Kai said turning his face away from mine.

"Aaww c'mon, you are a kid…well… you're 17, so you wont be losing any respect or anything. What do ya say?" I said, trying to convince him.

"…No."

"Argh! Why don't you wanna have any fun?"

"Because this qualifying league isn't a vacation!"

"Well you can still have fun y'know!"

"Just go with her Kai!" Said a nearby familiar voice by the bushes, it was so clearly Tyson.

"Shut the hell up Tyson!" Kai shouted over the bushes, to a tuff of hair that stuck out the bushes.

I felt like I wasn't getting anywhere with Kai. I felt like giving up! But I didn't, instead, I changed the subject…

"Tyson get lost! Go away! Now!" Kai demanded, it was so obvious he wanted to end the argument in private.

Tyson ran off laughing.

"Now!" Kai continued to me, facing in my direction.

I tilted my head and interrupted his aggressive talk, "Have you ever… kissed a girl before Kai?"

"…What?" Kai folded his arms, sounding confused that I changed the subject so suddenly, "…"

I stepped a little closer to him, "Well, have you? You don't seem to be the socializing type…"

"So you're saying every guy has to hit it off with every girl he sees?" Kai hissed at me.

"Not at all, I'm just wondering…" I said under my breath, looking down at my feet and swaying my foot a little.

There was that silence again! But…wait a minuet, why hasn't he turned his back yet?

"Back in Russia…"

I looked up instantly, "Huh?"

"Back in Russia, when I was around four years old or so, my first kiss was with a girl in the abbey…" Kai looked away from me, looking down at the fountain…

I smiled and laughed just a little, only a little, "Aaww, that's so sweet!"

"…" He smirked a little, looking at me in a curios kind of way.

We started to stare at eachother again, it was a nice stare, it was like… We're staring at eachother because it's ok with oneanother! I couldn't help staring at his eyes! His eyes! Snap out of it! Right now Kiroku!

"So anyways! Still not going to come with me to the arcade?" I asked hopefully.

Kai folded his arms and looked away from me, "No."

I fell anime style, "Ok!"

Kai turned away and was about to walk off, but before he did, he smirked at me a little.

I smiled, "Seeya later, Kai!"

He nodded then walked off all 'Mr. cool-like'. I sighed, then turned to the waterfountain again.

Then suddenly I heard a noise in a nearby tree…

"Daichi! Don't touch that branch!"

"But I'm about to-"

CRASH! Tyson and Daichi fell flat on their butts on a path of pebbles. I tilted my head to look a little closer at them, and then fell animestyle laughing really hard! They had really painful looks on their faces, when I calmed down a little I helped pick themselves up, and then looked concerned.

"Ha ha! What were you guys doing up there?" I said, looking back at the waterfountain, "Oh wait… I didn't need to ask that!"

Daichi rubbed his bottom before sighing, "We…just wanted to know what you two were talking about! That's all!"

Tyson sweatdropped, "Totally!"

"Hmmm…" I moaned under my breathe, folding my arms, "What did you hear?"

"Stuff." Tyson replied, scratching the back of his hair with a wide grin on his face.

"You're so stubborn!" I said looking down on them like a bunch of moron spies…

Daichi laughed hesitantly, "Hey, c'mon Kiroku, don't be like that! Have you seen the way Kai looks at you? He treated you like one of a kind at the very beginning."

I raised an eyebrow, starting to take in what they were saying, "One of a kind? So Kai isn't like that to everyone he meets at first?"

Tyson sarcastically laughed, "Are you kidding? Kai has this shell, which you have to scratch the surface to get to, so you get in the position you are in right now!"

"So you guys' weren't friends with him from the start?" I asked curiously, "I mean, it seems he has a lot of respect for you lot."

"Yeah but…" Daichi said, but interrupted by my cellphone.

I took my cellphone from my back pocket, "Um, Hello?"

"I'm at the Arcade, you going to meet me here or what?" Kai said, in a coldly tone of voice.

"If you're up to it!" I replied with enthusiasm.

"Just get here fast; I don't want to waste any more time!" Kai hung up with a huff.

I put my cellphone away, and then looked back at the jaw-dropped Daichi and Tyson.

"What is it now?...ugh! What are you two staring at!" I shouted at them both, looking irritated.

"…" Daichi and Tyson just stood there shocked…jaw dropped…looking…well…What was I doing just standing here!?

"What am I still doing here?" I shouted, running out of the BBA gardens.
