Hurricane Breaks Out
Lily led Kai, Rei and Salima into a white, brightly lit room.
"This isn't the training area..."
"No, it's not. But I'm not gonna let Rei's arm go untreated."
"...But..."
"Rei, just let your arm get treated."
Rei stared at Salima then hung his head, why couldn't he argue with her? He held his arm out from him and waited for someone to do something.
Lily, Kai, and Salima stared at Rei, he looked so utterly beaten when Salima had spoke; the first two having some idea as to why. Lily shook her head minutely then walked over to the cabinet and pulled out some bandaging and other miscellaneous medical supplies before walking over to the Chinese teen. Crouching down, she started to treat and bandage the area that had the skin torn away. In a few minutes she had finished playing doctor and put everything away before starting to leave the room.
"Come on guys, everyone will be waiting for us."
Kai followed directly after Lily and Rei had come to the door first but waited for Salima to pass before exiting, shutting the lights off.
!-!-Training place-!-!-
Tyson paced around the large room; Kai and Lily had been out for nearly half an hour!
"Hey guys, Kai and Lily have been gone for a long time, right?"
"Nearly half an hour according to my watch. So..?"
"I don't think they're looking for Rei and Salima at all."
"What else would they be doing?" Max had put stress on the else, knowing those two better than Tyson apparently did.
"Oh...you know...making...out..."
"Why did you think today was a good day to have your face rearranged?"
Tyson looked to where the voice had come from, right there were Lily and Kai themselves. Lily was sideways in the door and had her eyes closed and a vein was throbbing in her head. Kai was facing him full on arms crossed and sending Tyson death glares. Behind them were Rei and Salima. Rei had one eyebrow cocked while Salima just looked confused and amused.
"Oh...hi guys." Tyson sounded sheepish, he hadn't meant for them to hear that.
Lily turned to face Tyson fully and opened her eyes into a death glare.
"Tyson, Kai's my friend. Get that through your thick head, now."
Tyson's eyes widened and he backed slowly away from the door. He had the meekest expression on his face that might have made Lily laugh if not for the current situation. The brunette's upper lip raised into a half snarl before the expression vanished.
"Tyson, consider yourself lucky, you get to get away with that comment this time. Next time you may not be so lucky."
Tyson nodded and Kai stared blankly at her. Lily walked up to one of the beyblade dishes and looked over to Kai.
"Hey, Kai. I thought you wanted to battle me."
"Hn."
Kai walked over to the dish as well, and pulled out Dranzer and his launcher. He prepared his blade and waited for a countdown to start. Rei walked over, taking up position as ref.
"3!" After he called that, Lily pulled out her blade and launcher. "2!" Lily put the blade on her launcher and tossed them into the air. "1!" Lily caught it, and put a finger on the rip cord. "LET IT RIP!" Suddenly, the lights went out.
"What the?"
"DAISY!"
"What...?" A mysterious female voice sounded rather innocent
"I knew it was you." Even though it was dark she was wearing the cocky grin that could only be called hers, "Call Citlaque back."
"Whatever."
With that the darkness in the room trickled away showing a dark haired girl standing in the doorway near Salima, holding a black and purple blade. She had laughing brown eyes staring directly at Lily, who had a flat expression.
"Didn't I tell you not to do that anymore?"
"Sure, but I dun have to listen you, do I?" Lily sent her an idle glare plainly saying she was not amused, Daisy snickered at her captain and look around, "REI!" She ran over to the Chinese blader and hugged him.
Rei went wide-eyed and gave a gasp, shock clearly written on his face. Salima walked into the room, blinking curiously at the dark haired girl.
"I think you're suffocating him."
It seemed true enough, Rei was turning a light shade of blue, being crushed by Daisy's hug, or glomp. The Chinese/Spanish looking kid let go of Rei.
"Gomen!"
"Daisy?" Rei coughed slightly as he got his breath back, he looked up at the girl who nodded vehemently.
"Rei, who is that?"
"It's my cousin, Salima."
Salima finished walking over to Daisy, she extended her and "Nice to meet you, Daisy."
"Nice to meet you too."
The black haired girl moved her dark purple and black laptop to her other hand before shaking Salima's.
Thunder echoed throughout the air. Hillary screamed. Mariam stared at her like she was an idiot. Daisy, Lily and Salima blinked. Kai and Rei headed for the door. Max and Tyson followed Kai and Rei, Lily soon running ahead of all four of them. Lily stooped and slid sideways, coming to a stop in front of the window. Rain was pouring solid outside, gale force winds blew the trees and there was lightning, lots of lighting.
"Woah, looks like that hurricane came early."
Lily turned to face Kai as the others came up to them. "Looks like our beybattle is off."
"Huh?"
"All the dishes in this house have magnetic systems, and other electronically supported features, if there was a surge in power, the blades could be destroyed."
"Oh."
Mariam was one of the last people to come over to the large window. Her eyes were focused more on the raging storm outside then her surroundings. She ran over one of Max's shoes. Max instinctively reached out an arm and stopped Mariam's fall. Mariam looked up at Max, thoughts freezing once she looked into Max's eyes.
Lighting broke loose again, the power went out. Within minutes the power came back on, revealing a rather...interesting scene. Max and Mariam were kissing, Tyson was staring wide eyed. Hillary looked about to laugh. Kai, Rei, and Lily stared disinterestedly and looked back out at the storm. Daisy and Salima had cocked an eyebrow. For the sake of her friends' minds, Lily sent a meaningful look over Daisy, who understood the message.
Darkness crept swiftly from Daisy's hand to cover the entire room and soon the house. Lily leaned against the window, sharp night vision waiting to spot some sign of movement from the point of interest. Time slowly passed before Lily moved again, about one minute, Lily stood and walked over to Daisy and tapped her on the shoulder and moved back to where she had been before.
The synthetic darkness evaporated instantly.
"We should get back to the basement before Kenny starts to get worried. Follow me unless you'd rather get lost again."
With that Lily started to leave, closely followed by Kai, Rei, Salima and Daisy. Hillary had to take Tyson's wrist and drag him away. Max and Mariam stared at each other once the area was reasonably clear.
"Do you think...?"
"Nah, the lights were off." Merriam cut off his question, they hadn't noticed the lights coming back on momentarily.
"Okay..."
Max and Mariam ran after the others.
