Chapter fifteen: Breakfast

Welcome Beybladers. We are happy to tell that we will reach the island ahead of time. We have been told to inform you that you shall be camping out in separate places. Please stay with your teams only. Please ask questions at the welcome desk.

Isis groaned. She had been sleeping so well that night as well. She heard Mariam still snoring and laughed quietly.

She turned the shower on and climbed in. Trying desperately to wake up. She heard the sound of the rest of them getting up. Mariam sighing and Hilary grumbling.

"Isis? Are you in the shower?"

"Yeah! Give me fifteen minutes." She called back.

Soon they were all ready to catch some breakfast, Isis in her black jeans and black top. Mariah in her white dress and Mariam in her kaki skirt and top and Hilary in her white skirt and pink t-shirt. They all packed up their stuff back into their bags ready for when they got off the ship.

"Honestly, you guys know how to make a girl wait for her breakfast!" Isis laughed.

"Heh, we have to wait for the lads to get out of bed yet." Mariam chuckled at her expression.

"You have got to be kidding me." Isis told her.

"Nope, but don't worry, they should be up and ready by now." Hilary grinned. "Or at least they will be when we get there." She added brightly.

They all laughed.

"We better get going then." Mariah giggled. They went to open the door.

Kai was standing outside it, scowling as usual. Hilary, Mariah and Mariam shrank back slightly, they hadn't realised how intimidating he could be.

"Erm... I'll see you girls later just tell them I still need to pack." Isis told them.

They scuttled out of the room. Unable to do much else. Kai shut the door. Letting Isis fall into his arms. They stood there for a while, enjoying each others touch.

"Did you tell them?" He asked her. She nodded.

"Mariah already knew. So does Ray, she swore he won't tell anyone though." She whispered. She felt Kai growl. "Kai... are you alright?" She asked.

"I'm fine." He told her. "It was killing you inside, I... I can't..." He started stammering, she put her hand over his mouth.

"Don't say, and don't change. I love you the way you are." She smiled; he kissed her again.

They grew passionate once more. At least until Isis felt her stomach growl. She blushed. Kai felt embarrassed, and let her go.

"I haven't had anything to eat since yesterday afternoon." She admitted. He chortled softly.

"You better go get breakfast." He told her.

"Where are you going?" She asked as he towards the door. He stopped; a small smile on his face.

"I've already ate."

"Oh."


Isis walked down to the breakfast bar. She noticed uncomfortably the looks she was receiving by the all male teams.

"Hey! You! Mizz Raven!" Some arrogant blader called out. She stopped and turned around to identify the lad who shouted at her.

"Me?" She asked. "What do you want?"

"Your cute, you work on the ferry?"

"No,"

"Oh, you tagging along?"

"Of course not." She told him, her voice severe.

"You on a team?" He asked in disbelief.

"Yes." She said; her eyes sharper than before.

"Which one?"

"Why?" She asked him.

"Fine then, tell me your name sugar." He told her. She decided to let him now that.

"Isis Kinomiya. You'll know me as the Sliver Phoenix." She began walking again, letting it sink in. She heard laughter from the other side of the room.

She reached the bar and heard Max shout out. She grinned, grabbed her breakfast and went over to meet them, remembering her excuse of not being able to find something in the cabin.

"Hey Isis. Found what ever you lost?" Ray asked her.

"What? Oh! Yeah." She grinned. "So, when do we arrive?"

"We don't know. So far all the information we've got is that the teams go into two groups. One is a group of three for one particular part of this tournament and the other is a doubles tournament, where the other two go. It's slightly confusing but apart from that we should be okay." Kenny explained to them all.

"So have you sorted out the groups Chief?" Tyson asked. Attempting to steal some of Isis's breakfast, and wincing as she slapped his hand away.

"Kinda. Me and Dizzy have researched all your past battles, bringing up your weaknesses and strengths. It's to bring out your best potential in all of you. We just need to try something with Kai's Dranzer and Isis's Dragweena. So once you've finished that will you come down to where the dishes are?" He asked.

"Er, sure thing Chief." Isis grinned.

"Good, oh, Ray, Tyson and Max might as well come down as well; we can use your blades for the experiment too." He beamed.

"Sure thing, we'll come now." Tyson told him; still giving Isis hurt looks for not letting him steal her breakfast.

"The breakfast bar's over there Tyson! Sheesh!" She told him, everyone laughed and dragged him off towards the dishes.

Isis laughed and finished off her brunch as fast as she could. Unable to wait to find out about Kenny's plans.

She ran down to where the dishes were. All the Bladebreakers were hanging around one all ready. Everyone talking and chatting with the exception of Kai; who was leaning impatiently by the wall nearest them; though just faraway from the others to look like he was by himself; just close enough to listen to their conversation.

"Hi guys!" She grinned as they welcomed her. "Er, so what's happening?"

"Right, it's you and Kai against Ray and Tyson, just a trial run okay?" Kenny told her.

Isis smiled to herself and whipped out her beyblade.

"Let's go."

"3... 2... 1... Let it rip!" Max called, all four let their beyblades.

It was over before it even began.

Ray and Tyson gasped as their blades were knocked out of the dish before they even touched it. Isis and Kai just smirked, their bitbeasts weren't even out.

"Whoa! That's like... amazing!" Tyson called out. He seemed amazed at the speed in which the battle had been and gone.

"Yup, I know." Isis smiled seductively, her beyblade back in her gloved hand.

"Feh." Kai scowled and walked off. Everyone looked at each other and shrugged.

"What's his problem?" Mariam asked more to Isis than to anyone else. Tyson interrupted before she could speak.

"The guys a total jerk, he never smiles or anything. Sheesh." He told them all angrily.

The atmosphere tensed, the girls and Ray looked uncomfortable. They all eyed Isis worriedly.

Attention all Beyblading Teams. We have arrived at the Island Tournament.
Please collect your things and report to the docking area.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, with the exception of Tyson who just cheered.

"Aw man! Let's go!"
