Warnings/Notes: This will be shounen ai, mainly Tyson x Kai, but I may add hints of Rei x Max later on (I'm not sure yet).
And just so you don't get confused…
People speaking is like this "……"
People thinking is like this '…….'

Be My Saviour, and I'll be Your Downfall
Chapter 12
Kai walked into the bedroom, shutting and locking the door behind him.
'Kai?'
He lay down on his bed, pulled out his Dranzer, and stared at it.
"Please," he whispered, "I know you can hear me, if you can, could you please block him from my thoughts. I………….. I just really need to be alone for a little while. Just so I can………………… sort things out in my head."
In response to the request, Dranzer glowed lightly.
Kai didn't realize it, but he glowed as well.
He suddenly felt different. He could still feel Tyson was there, he just couldn't hear him.
'Tyson?'
There was no response.
Kai sighed.
He was alone.
And it felt……………………………………….wrong.
'You've started to become dependant on him,' said a dark little voice in the back of his head.
Kai growled and glared at the ceiling. He didn't like the idea of being dependant on anyone but himself or Dranzer.
'And why on earth did he say that? Why would he want to stay connected with me?'
'Maybe he likes you.'
'Go away Dranzer.'
'That's no way to talk to your beloved bitbeast.'
'I know, but at the moment I don't particularly care! I need to be alone!'
'No you don't. You need to let Tyson back in. He's going crazy. Well, that's what Dragoon says anyway.'
'No! I need to be left alone to think.'
Dranzer sighed, 'I know it's scary. The fact that you got linked with him was bad enough, but finding out that he actually likes it must terrify you, but you have to get past it. You handled being bonded with him so well, don't let that get ruined now by such a little thing like the fact that he enjoys it. And besides……………….' Kai could feel Dranzer smirk, '………….I know for a fact that you're not exactly hating your bond either.'
Kai blushed.
'As soon as you want me to stop blocking him, just give me a yell.'
Kai sighed as he felt Dranzer's presence leave his mind.
Tyson watched Kai watch the room.
He wasn't sure what he should do.
Should he follow him, or should he just let him be alone.
"Tyson?" said Max nervously.
"What," said Tyson monotonously.
"Y-you didn't mean that, did you? What you said before, I mean."
Tyson had a strange expression on his face, "I think I did."
"Oh………………………………..well, I'm happy for you."
Tyson blinked and looked at Max who was grinning at him.
"Wha…………."
"I'm happy for you."
Rei smiled as well, "Me too. And I'm positive that Kai feels the same way you do."
"H-huh?"
"Oh, you can't hide it from us. We know you like him, we can tell."
"Yeah, we know you too well."
"B-but, it's Kai!"
"So?"
"I like," Tyson blushed slightly, "Kai and you don't even look surprised."
Max and Rei sweatdropped.
"It's really obvious."
"We figured it out a while ago."
They looked at Kenny who was looking worried.
"Tyson……………….how do you know that it isn't your bond that's making you feel this way?" he asked slowly.
Tyson gave him a very resolute look, "I just do."
They both stared at each other for a minute.
Kenny suddenly smiled slightly, "Well I guess I better start concentrating on Zianna then, won't I?"
Tyson smiled back, "That's right, and I-" He stopped speaking and blinked. He suddenly felt weird.
'Kai?'
There was no response.
"Tyson are you alright?"
'KAI! Please answer me! Just to let me know you're there! I promise I'll leave you alone!'
"Tyson! Answer us!"
"Are you feeling alright?"
'KAI!'
"Tyson," Max wrapped an arm around Tyson's shoulders, and started to steer him towards a chair, "Let's sit down for a second, you look awfully pale."
"No. I need to check on Kai," said Tyson, trying to break free from his grasp.
Max shook his head and pushed down forcing Tyson to sit.
"………….Why won't he talk to me?" said Tyson quietly to himself.
Rei heard him and looked at him sympathetically, "You know Kai, and he's never been a big talker. He just needs some time to think and adjust. He's never been one to let people get close to him, and I think that with your bond, you might have gotten the closest to him that anyone ever has! He hasn't really had a chance to get used to it, so many things have happened in that last few days so quickly. Give him some time and I'm sure he'll be fine."
"Really?"
Max grinned, "Of course!"
There was a pause.
Tyson suddenly stood up, "Ok! That's been enough time, I'm going to go talk to him now."
"TYSON! It's only been 5 minutes since you saw him last!"
But Tyson had already left.
Kai looked up when someone knocked on his door.
"Kai?"
He sighed and ignored it.
The knocking got louder and more forceful.
"Kai!"
"………………………………………….."
The knocking upgraded to banging.
"KAI HIWATARI! OPEN THIS DOOR RIGHT NOW!"
"……………."
"KAI! OPEN UP! AND WHILE YOU AT IT, UNDO WHATEVER THE HELL YOU DID SO I CAN TALK TO YOU AGAIN!"
Scowling Kai got up and opened the door. He gave Tyson a very cold look and said, "What."
Tyson returned the look with one of his own, pushed past Kai, shut the door, and went and sat on the bed, "Undo it. NOW." His voice was serious and deadly.
Kai rolled his eyes, "I found a way to stop it. Shouldn't you be pleased?" he asked calmly.
"Just undo it," snapped Tyson, getting really annoyed.
"Why."
Tyson stood up, "Because."
"……………………."
"KAI!"
"…………………………What if I say I can't."
Tyson glared at him, "I don't have to read your mind to be able to tell you're lying."
"Whatever."
Still glaring Tyson stalked over to Kai, "Fine. I guess I'll just have to make you!" before Kai had any inclination on what he was about to do, Tyson grabbed him, picked him up and carried him over to the bed.
Kai, who was so surprised, didn't start to fight back until it was too late, and Tyson had straddled him and leaned over him, pinning his arms on either side of his head.
"TYSON! GET THE HELL OF ME!" yelled Kai, trying to push upwards with his hands.
Tyson shook his head grimly, "Undo it," he paused and smirked, "And how come you can't get me off you yourself? I thought you were meant to be strong!"
Kai swore and redoubled his efforts, and started twisting his body, trying to get Tyson to fall off him, "You're using you're body weight to hold me down! You're too heavy for me to lift you off me!"
"I am NOT heavy!"
"I'm sure if we momentarily switched bodies you'd be saying something a lot different!...NOW GET OFF ME!"
"No."
"WHY NOT?"
"I want you to open our link again."
"………………………………why?" asked Kai softly looking away.
Tyson found him self leaning even closer to Kai, their faces were almost touching, "Because………………………………"
Kai simply looked up into his eyes, his own wide and uncertain.
"Because……………………I-"
The door was suddenly flung open, "What's all the yelling about?" demanded Kenny. His eyes widened as he saw the boys on the bed, "Oh…………………….my…………….."
"Kenny!" called Max, and popped up behind him in the doorway, closely followed by Rei.
There was and embarrassed silence in which the two groups of guys stared at each other.
"……………………………..I think we'll come back when you're not so………………………busy." said Max nervously, and pulled Kenny out of the room.
Rei winked and said, "Have fun," before he too left, shutting the door behind him.
Tyson moved back, releasing Kai, so he was sitting up straight (though he was still on top of him), "Well, that could have gone a lot worse."
Kai closed his eyes, "Please someone kill me now."
