Chapter #2: Good morning problems and darkness!
Third person p.o.v
yawn "Morning already?" Tyson said sleepily as he stretched his arms. He quietly got dressed and headed for the hotels kitchen.
"Good morning Tyson, you're last up as usual." Rei said as he brought a plate of pancakes over to the table where everyone else was sitting.
"Wow! Those pancakes look good!" Tyson shouted as he rushed to take a seat.
"Well dig in, there's plenty for everyone!" Rei said as he sat down as well.
"Hey, Rei?" Kae asked.
"Yes what is it?" He responded.
"I was wondering if you could teach me how to cook. My cooking sucks, compared to yours." Kae lied as she poured syrup on her pancakes. Kai knew she lied too.
"Um, sure. You can help me with lunch today. I'll teach you everything I know. Then, we'll have two chefs on this team." Rei smiled.
"Thanks. That sounds great, Rei." Kae responded with a smile. Kai's eyebrow twitched, as he saw this.
"But, I thought I helped you, Rei." Tyson moaned. He glanced at Kae and blushed, so quickly turned towards Rei.
"But I'm gonna be teaching this time. Besides, you won't help me for awhile, after what happened last night." Rei said matter-o-factly.
"Aww, man!" Tyson muttered as he shoveled pancakes down his throat. Kae smiled. She would get to talk to Rei about Tyson.
Three hours later, right before lunch……..
"Kae, are you ready for me to teach you?" Rei asked.
"You bet! Let's go." Kae said as she got up from playing games with Max. Rei and Kae walked into the kitchen. Once in the kitchen, Rei turned to her.
"You lied, didn't you?" Rei asked with a smile.
"Oops! You caught me." Kae replied with a huge grin.
"But, why? I'm fairly certain you're a good cook." Rei asked.
"Well…I wanted to talk to you about something." Kae told him.
"I got a feeling this has nothing to do with cooking. Am I right?" Rei said.
"Uh-huh. Well…..it's about Tyson." Kae started.
"What about Tyson?" Rei asked.
"Ya' see. Tyson came to thank me last night, for helping him. But…" Kae trailed off.
"But what?"
" Here, I'll tell you what happened…… flash-back
"Kae? Are you awake?" It was Tyson's voice.
"Yes, I'm awake. You can come in." I said as I sat up. Tyson slowly opened the door and came in.
"Well, I just wanted to thank you again for helping me earlier, when no one else would. That was really nice of you. Much nicer than Hilary." Tyson told me
"You're welcome. I like to help people. Especially my good friends." I smiled. Tyson blushed and looked away.
"Wh-what's wrong?" I asked leaning to the side, trying to see his face.
"Nothing! It's nothing. Goodnight, Kae." Tyson said as he walked towards my door.
"Alright. Goodnight, Tyson." I said as he closed my door…….end flash-back
….. And that's basically what happened. But I don't understand it. I so couldn't ask Kai-chan about it, he'd pummel Tyson for talking to me so late at night. Max probably wouldn't take it seriously, and I don't know Kenny that well. And Hilary's, well, Hilary seems kinda mean. You're the only one left I could talk to." Kae told Rei everything.
"I see. Well isn't it obvious?" Rei asked.
"What do you mean? I still don't get it." Kae responded, totally clueless.
"Well…it seems to me, that you have a not-so-secret admirer on your hands." Rei flashed her his signature Rei-kitty smile.
"What? Really? Who?" Kae asked oblivious.
Rei smacked his forehead and sighed. "Well, duh, it's Tyson! How can you be so clueless? Really, Kae." Rei told her, saying the first part in a whisper.
"What!" Kae shouted. Her hands flew to her mouth.
"What's wrong Kae!" Kai asked as he came rushing into the kitchen area.
"Oh, it was nothing! Rei just told me how he makes such awesome food! It's a well kept secret, ya' know!" Kae made up a lie quickly. Kai saw right through it though.
"Fine, whatever. Hurry up with lunch though. Tyson is about to eat the sofa." Kai said as he walked out. Though Kae didn't know, Kai would have a little talk with her later on.
"Great cover up, Kae. I didn't know what to tell him. You're brother is kinda intimidating." Rei admitted.
" Thanks. Well, we should make lunch now. I really don't want to pay for the sofa." Kae said with a giggle. Rei nodded and started to get stuff out for lunch.
"Can we still talk though?"
"Of course we can. There isn't a rule saying no talking allowed in the kitchen. What did you want to talk about?" Rei asked.
"Tyson may like me, but I don't like him. What do I do about that? I don't want to hurt him. He's my friend." Kae told Rei, as she copped up some tomatoes.
"Well there are two choices. One: Just pretend you don't know, and try to forget. And two: confront him and explain everything, that way he'll only be hurt for a little while. Besides the latter is the best way to go." Rei responded, stirring something in a pot.
"You sure? Rei?" Kae asked warily.
"Of course. I've had a lot of experience with that stuff. Anything else?" Rei asked adding the tomatoes Kae had chopped up.
"Yeah. How does one explain their feelings towards someone they love?" Kae asked, fidgeting slightly.
Rei blushed at the question. He hadn't been expecting that one.
"Uh, well. Hmmm. I'd just follow my heart. Corny, I know, but it's worked for me before." Rei responded.
"I see. In that case……" Kae let her voice trail off. Rei caught his breathe, in hope.
shrill scream
"What was that!" Rei and Kae shouted as they ran out of the kitchen. When they got into the living room area, Hilary, and Tyzue were backed up against the wall, Kai, Max, Tyson and Kenny standing in front of them, blocking a dark figure from reaching them.
"What the heck is that, Kai-chan!" Kae shouted as she saw it getting closer to her brother and her friends.
"K-Kae! Get back in the kitchen! Rei, you better stay with her! Now, go!" Kai shouted as he glanced at the cooking duo.
"Right! Kae, come on!" Rei shouted as he grabbed Kae's hand and ran back into the kitchen. Little did they know, the thing was following them. Rei closed the door and locked it.
"What was that and what does it want?" Kae asked in a whisper, as she clung to Rei for dear life.
"I don't know, but whatever it is it can't -." Rei started to say before he was interrupted.
"Mesora………"
"Wh-What was that?" Kae asked nervously. The voice had appeared out of no where.
"Mesora, come back……"
"Show yourself! Coward!" Rei shouted as he pulled Kae closer to him.
"Did it just s-say Mesora?" Kae asked, realizing that that was the name of her bitbeast.
"Lady Mesora…. Come to me Lady Kae Mesora……"
'It-It wants me…." Kae trailed off. Suddenly the dark figure from the living room appeared in front of them. It reached out what looked like a hand towards Kae. She started trembling as it drew nearer to her face.
boom!
A Beyblade came crashing threw the kitchen door. It was blue and silver. Dranzer.
"Kae! I'm coming!" Kai shouted as he leaped threw the hole in the door.
But it was too late. The thinghad Kae in it's grasp and did not want to let her go without a fight.
