Kay: Hi, everyone. Sorry this wasn't updated sooner, but I was busy. But now my work load appears to be clearing up, so I should be able to update more often (note the "should" in italics. That means that I might not be able to update that frequently). Any way this chapter is dedicated to all Kai/Ty fans (you'll see why). On a more specific note, it's dedicated to Akira of the Twilight for being the only one to review the the last chapter (which I thought would have a better turn out). Now, on with the fic!

Chapter 5
Remembering the Past, Part Two

Tyson yawned as he entered his room, Kai following him and closing the door. Tonight, Tyson and Kai were sleeping in Tyson's room, and Max and Ray were sleeping in a guest bedroom. Kai's dream was getting everyone paranoid, so Dragoon and Dranzer were sharing a room, and Dracile and Driger were sharing a room, as well.

Kai smirked as he caught Tyson yawning. "What's the matter, love? Did all that thinking tire you out?" Kai said as he wrapped his arms around Tyson's shoulders. Tyson scowled and leaned his head back against Kai's shoulder, and shivered as Kai's warm breath washed over his neck.

Pulling away, (quite reluctantly, I might add) Tyson walked over to his dresser where he kept his pajamas, and pulled some out, as Kai followed his example, pulling a pair of pajamas out of his suitcase. As Kai changed, he watched Tyson out of the corner of his eye, as his lover pulled off his pants to replace them with his pajama pants. >>1>>

As Tyson pulled off his shirt, Kai gasped. Tyson's back was covered with blue and grey markings. Turning around, Tyson discovered that something was awry with Kai's back. "Did you hurt yourself, Kai?" he asked as he walked over to his lover.

"No, why?" Kai answered as he felt Tyson's fingers trace a path on his back.

"There are some weird red and yellow markings on your back," Tyson responded. Why did these markings look so…familiar was the only word Tyson could use to describe it.

Then, it hit him. "They look like…Dranzer," Tyson said.

-

"Achoo!" Dragoon looked up to look at Dranzer who had just sneezed.

"Are you catching a cold, Dranz?" Dragoon asked, addressing his lover by his nickname. Dranzer looked over at Dragoon affectionately.

"I don't think so. Maybe someone's talking behind my back?" >>2>> Dranzer said.

"Just to be safe, though, we'd better get you under the covers," Dragoon said, an evil glint in his eyes, and his voice light and playful. Catching his lovers drift, Dranzer smirked, walking over to the dragon.

"I don't think the covers will be enough, do you think you could donate your body heat to the just cause of keeping me warm?" Dranzer said, his voice possessing the same playful tone to it that Dragoon's did. Then the two crawled into bed, and enjoyed on another's company in a way they hadn't been able to for 1500 years..

-

"You're right," Kai said to Tyson as he studied the markings on his back in a mirror on Tyson's bedroom wall, which formed a faded image of Dranzer. "And the one's on your back kind of look like Dragoon."

Tyson smiled, and then turned to the shirt that had lain forgotten on the floor since he had noticed the markings on Kai's back. Suddenly, he wasn't so fond of shirts anymore. Yawning, he crawled into bed, and Kai, who had had a similar thought involving shirts, followed suit. After finding a comfortable position in one another's arms, they fell asleep.

-

Strong arms held him down, and a bare chest crushed against his own, as lips traveled along his neck and collar bone, sometimes tongue and teeth being added to the equation. Sweat beaded down his forehead and more dropped from another's body, somewhere above him. Somewhere in the darkness he could hear his partner's ragged breathing. Suddenly, he felt his pants slipping off his hips and…

Tyson's eye shot open, and for a minute he thought he had never fallen asleep. The body to which the arms wrapped around him belonged was most certainly sweaty, and the person's breathing was ragged. Then he realized one thing. He still had his pants on, and he was in a bed, not in some cave, lying on and under animal skins (and his partner's body, but that's beside the point).

"Did you just have the same dream I did?" Tyson asked his lover, noticing that the older boy was awake.

"Depends. Did it involve me pinning you to the ground and relishing your body and end right when things were getting deliciouslyinteresting?" Tyson didn't answer right away.

"Dragoon said that we should be expecting this. He said that he and the others had known for a while that we were the reincarnations of their friends from 1500 years ago, and since one of us was starting to remember, the rest of us would probably start soon, too," Tyson finally said. He then shivered as he felt Kai smirk against his neck.

"Well, I don't like what I've been seeing for the past six months, but I'm not about to complain about what we just saw," he said before going down to lick at the younger boy's shoulder. Deciding that he wanted more, Kai started sucking on and nipping at the spot on his lover's shoulder that he had just licked.

Tyson let the older boy do as he wished with him for a while, until he got board and decided to have a little fun of his own. The two soon discovered that the areas on their backs where the slowly sharpening images of their respective bitbeasts were, were incredibly sensitive. In the end, the two boys fell asleep with Tyson lying on his stomach, with Kai resting his head against the younger boy's back in between his shoulder blades, and his arms wrapped protectively around his lover. With a final kiss to Tyson's back, the two boys fell asleep.


Kay: YAY! I'm so happy, this chapter turned out really well! SQEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

Jay: Squee?

Kay: Yes, squee. Now shut up, Jason, before I have to use the Muse Un-creator 2000 on you.

Jay:...

Kay: Good boy.

Notes:

>>1>> Kai, you pervert! You just can't stay off of him, can you?

>>2>> It's a Japanese superstition that when you sneeze, someone's taking about you behind your back. You don't notice it unless you know about the superstition, but it pops up a lot in different anime shows.
