Voltaire's office
The telephone rung,breaking the silence.Voltaire rolled his eyes,annoyed that the telephone interrupted him.He picked the telephone.
"Hello?" Voltaire said.
"May I speak to Mr Voltaire Hiwatari"
"I am Mr Voltaire Hiwatari"
"Mr Hiwatari,your granddaughter Kai is in hospital"
"What!How did it happen?Is she hurt"
"I have no idea,sir.She and a few of the Balkov Abbey children are in hospital.Half of the Abbey building was destroyed somehow"
"Is she okay"
"She's fine,but she had bumped her head hard.She might have amnesia"
"I'll be right there.What's the name of the hospital"
"Red Square,sir"
"I'll be there in a few hours.Good bye." Voltaire said,deciding to use his private jet to get to his granddaughter.
"Good bye,sir."
Hours later,Red Square Hospital
"Good morning sir,how may we help you?" the receptionist asked the frantic Voltaire.
"I'm here to see Kai Hiwatari."
"How are you related to her?" she asked.
"I'm her grandfather." Voltaire gritted his teeth.
"Just follow me to her room." she offered,getting up from her seat.Voltaire followed her.They stopped at a closed door.Voltaire slowly opened the door.
"..." Voltaire noticed that there are many children in his room.Some are unconscious.Some crying about how sore they are.Some upset about their friends passing away.Kai simply stared at the air in front of her.Her auburn eyes blank.
"Mr Balkov's in the next room.He has an arm fracture,but it's very mild.He'll be okay in two weeks"
"Thank you." Voltaire nodded,kneeling down to Kai's bedside.The recepionist left the room.
"Kai?" Voltaire whispered,noticing that she's still staring at the space in front of her.She slowly turned her head to the side,flinching.She held her bandaged in pain,but soon stopped when it disappeared.Only then did she notice the figure.
"Grampapa?" Kai blinked,amazed.
"You know who I am?" Voltaire asked.
"You're my grandfather!Grampapa,it's been so long!" Kai hugged Voltaire tightly,tears streaming down her cheeks.Voltaire,uncomfortable with the gesture,simply allowed her to hug him.
"Kai,do you remember what happened?" Voltaire asked.
"What what happened?" Kai asked,stopping her hug.
"You know...the accident"
"No"
"What do you remember"
"When I stayed by you,and when I woke up here"
"You mean you can't remember your 5-10 birthday parties"
"Na ah.",Kai answered,'But I do remember lots of things about a man with goggles...'
Two weeks later,Voltaire's mansion
Kai sat in her bedroom,throwing all his plushies and dolls into a giant box.After doing this task,she carried the box out out of her bedroom.One of the maids noticed her.
"Miss Kai,what are doing with that box?" she asked.
"Carrying it." she said simply.
"Let me help you." she offered,taking the box from Kai's arms.
"Where must I take it,Miss Kai"
"Just give it to a jumble sale,or something." Kai shooed the box away with her hand.The maid peeped into the box,and noticed it's all the dolls and plushies.They always meant so much to her.
"You sure?" the maid asked.
"Sure I'm sure." she smiled.The maid simply shrugged and carried on walking.
'There's something strange going on...' the maid thought.
Two days later
Kai refused to wear dresses and skirts,and would rather wear boy's clothes.For some strange reason,she wore a super-long scarf around her neck all the time.
Voltaire's chambers
The same maid that helped Kai with the box,knocked on Voltaire's door.
"Yes"
"Voltaire,may I come in"
"Certainly"
"Mr Hiwatari,",the maid began as she closed the door behind her,"have you noticed how strange Kai's been acting lately"
"Yes,I have." Voltaire said it as she told him old news.
"Are you the least bit concerned?She gave all her girl toys away and started to wear boys clothes"
"It's just a phase she's going through.I'm sure it'll pass soon.Just let her experiment,and it'll die faster." Voltaire explained to the maid.
"I hope you're right,Voltaire"
"Of course,I'm never"
"AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" a scream rudely cut off Voltaire.Voltaire and the maid rushed out of the room,to see what the ruckus was about.
"Oh my..." Voltaire's eyes widened.
'Told you...' the maid rolled her eyes.
Kai's private tutor had every reason to scream like she did.There stood Kai right in front of them.She wore a black shirt,blue cargo pants,black boys shoes and her scarf.She wore red arm-guards that had blades by the elbows.She painted blue striped on her cheeks.But,that wasn't the most shocking part.In Kai's left hand was a blue ponytail,with a scrunchie at the tip.In her other hand,was a pair of scissors.Yes,Kai,who loved her long hair,cut it off like it was nothing.
Two years later
Voltaire hired tutors that helped Kai walk like a man,act like a man and dress like one.He made sure Kai will get strainous exercising for bigger biceps and triceps.He hired a special tutor that helped Kai lower her husky voice.It really made her sound like a man,but it was tiring when she talked for over an hour.She wore clothes that made her look deadly.She bandaged her small busts under her shirt,which made them hardly noticable.
"Kai,what must you remember about men?" a tutor asked her.
"Men hardly show emotions.They never cry.They never socialize,or crack jokes at one another.They also take life quite seriously.Guys also only like pretty girls.Only guys can beyblade." Kai answered,not knowing that this tutor's lessons are all a bunch of lies.
One night
"Kai?" Voltaire asked,watching Kai practising his beyblade moves.
"Yes,grandfather?" Kai asked,busy staring at Dranzer spinning arounf the beydish.
"Why do you want to be a boy""Well"
"I want to be strong and powerful.Guys are powerful.Guys can protect themselves from danger.Girls can't." Kai answered,scenes of that goggled man doing those things to her,flashed in her mind's eye.
"I see." Voltaire said,upset that he didn't get the answer he wanted.
"Plus,I want to beyblade.Girls don't beyblade at all." Kai spat the 'Girls' part with pure poison.
Three years later
'Where could he be?' Kai wondered,looking all over for Carlos.He then noticed a small group of people down below him.He just witnessed a baseball-capped kid beating Carlos in a beybattle.Carlos tried to run away with a bag,but stopped when he saw Kai.Kai quickly jumped in front of Carlos.He slapped Carlos through the face.
"Hey,who are you?" the baseball-capped head demanded.
'He's cute',Kai thought when she peered at him from the corner of her eye,"The name's Kai." Kai answered in his deep voice.
The twosome had a beybattle.Kai won with such ease.
Later,the warehouse
Kai sat on the boxes,deep in thought.The BladeSharks were busy beyblading each other.
'Why can't I get him out of my head?Yeah,he's cute,but still'
"Hey Kai,did I do well on that launch?" Stuart asked.
"Hmm?Oh,you did fine.It was only three seconds too late." Kai quickly added.
"Okay.Thanks,Kai"
"Hnn." Kai responded,watching the others beyblade.She suddenly saw Tyson's face flash in her mind's eye.
'Why can't I get him out of my head?I did defeat him,right?'
