Chapter 13- Age 13 I: Memories

~~3 Years ago~~ **Rei's POV**

"We are gathered here to day, so say goodbye to a departed friend," the reverend preached during a funeral.

It's been a year since Kai was taken away. Now long ago, I saw Kai's picture in the 'Deaths' section in the newspaper. Everyone was shocked that Kai died, too. But I don't think he died. Knowing Kai the way I knew him, I think that someone used this tradgey to play a sick joke on everyone.

~*~After the Funeral~*~ **Regular POV**

Everyone left the funeral except for the 9 year old bladebreakers. "So do you think that Kai's dead or is that casket is as empty as Tyson's head?" Kenny asked concerned.

"Of course Kai's not dead," Tala answered. "Just think of the reasons he's not. 1, he's suppose to be in Russia. If he died, they would burry from in RUSSIA. 2, if the Abbey people killed Kai or if anything happened to him, they would get sued and get their building condemed. And 3, he's Kai for Pete's sake! He may get bruised, but he wouldn't die on us."

"Then what's in that casket? It seemed pretty heavy when those people was taking it to the car," the blonde 9 year old added.

"I dunno," Rei answered. "And what's with all the cats?!" he yelled seeing cats of all colors scratching and digging into Kai's grave.

"Uh... maybe Duke brought them?" Tyson said.

~*~Present Day~*~

Four years after Kai's disappearance, everyone's grown and trying to get over the past, but it hasn't been working very well. The bladebreakers were in their clubhouse that they built by the unfound lake outside the park. "I really miss that crazy nutcase," Tyson said sitting on a tree branch inside the clubhouse, "I remember that time when we had to go shopping..."

~*~Flashback Age 6 1/2~*~

Tyson was slowly walking to Walmart when Kai ran up behind him and asked, "Where ya going? Why go glum Tyson?"

"I have to go to Walmart to buy some things, and my show starts in 20 minutes," he answered.

"If ya hurry, you might catch it. It's not far."

"Yea I know, but I have to carry a bunch of things back home, too. LOOK AT THIS LIST!" Tyson yelled pulling out a list which reached the floor and beyond.

"Well, let me help then," Kai volunteered.

"GREAT LET'S GO!" Tyson cheered pulling Kai to Walmart

~*~12 minutes later~*~

"That'll be 20,000 yen," the clerk said. Tyson paid the lady and looked at his watch.

"Oh no! Only 8 minutes, we'll never make it," Tyson whinned.

"Oh yeah?" Kai said wlaking back to the lady at the counter. "Excuse me miss. Do you have a camera?"

"Uh, sure kid," she said pulling out her Izone camera (Is that what it's called?). Kai took it and snapped a picture of him and Tyson and gave it back to the lady. "Remember those cute adorable faces, we'll bring the cart back."

"And if we don't bring it back, you can ban us from the store, ok!" Tyson added. The lady nodded as she held her camera stupidly while the two boys zoomed off riding on the cart.

~*~End Flashback~*~

"So... did you return the cart?" Max asked sitting down.

"Look what you're about to sit in Max," Tyson pointed out. Max looked at his seat and realized that it was a Walmart cart.

"But... but... don't you guys still go to that store?" Tala asked as he rosed his eyebrow.

"New management, dunno if we're suppose to go back or not," Tyson replied simply.

"Well, I have a flashback that's pretty funny," Rei said. "It all started when Max's parents were getting remarried..." he began.

~*~Kai's backyard~*~ (A/N: I don't feel like doing another flashback with the blade breakers... i'll do one later with them -__-'')

Duke, the tiger, was busying chasing and knawing on a softball in his backyard when he noticed Mariah walking outside and sitting in a chair outside. Duke grabbed his ball ad walked through the bushes to the next yard. Mariah looked at the giant tiger roam into her yard and resting his head on her chair's armrest.

"Nice to see you too, Duke," Mariah giggled petting the tiger. Duke purred and looked at Mariah's sad eyes.

'She's been not kinda herself when Master left," Duke thought. ( A/N: Yes Duke can think!! Congradulations!!! You can read tiger's minds!!) 'I miss him, too. I remember when he first saw me...'

~*~Flashback Age 5~*~

In the small town, a little blue haired boy was sitting in a tree in the park counter the money that he stole from a bunch of little children that he passed by.

"Heh, soon with this money, I can buy myself a new beyblade AND some spare parts," Kai said smirking counting all the quarters, nickels, dimes, and a few dollars he pulled out of those kids. Out of no where, Kai heard purring in the bushes. He jumped off the tree branch and walked over to see where the purring came from. He open through the bushes and saw a small kitten licking his paw, which was bleeding.

"Hey, a cat. I wonder who it belongs to," Kai wonder as he picked the cat up. The kitten hissed and bit Kai's arm pulling part of his skin off. Kai yelped and the cat jumped out of his arms. The cat tried to walk off but it was limbing. Kai walked in front of the cat and picked him up again.

"Look, if you want that paw of yours fixed, you're gonna have to come home with me. My mom's a nurse. I'll let your leave after your paw heals, deal?" Kai said carrying the cat back to his house. The cat stared in confusement and gave up because it was tired of trying anyways.

When Kai made it home, his mom was in the hallway tapping her foot. "Where have you been Kai Shawn Hiwatari?!"

"I've just been walking around in the park and I found this hurt cat," Kai answered holding the cat up to his mother.

"WHAT HAPPENED TO YOUR ARM?!" she gasped.

"I'll tell you after you help the cat, mom. Please!" he begged with puppy dog eyes.

She sighed in defeated and said "OK Kai, I'll help this kitten. But we're not gonna keep it."

"Thanks mom," Kai thanked.

Weeks after the cat was healed, it grew an abnormal size for a cat. When they tried to let him free, he refused to go and slept on the couch. That was when they realised that the kitten was accuatly a baby tiger! "Well, we can't let a tiger run loose in Japan," Kai's mom stated, "I guess we could get you can get him a license Kai."

"WHAT?! How come I have to buy the collar and license?" Kai complained.

"Three reasons young man," she said holding up her three fingers," One, you brought this tiger home, two, I'm paying alot of money to feed you and him, and three, you have plenty of money that you've jacked off of every kid in this town."

"But-But... how did you know?!"

"I have eyes. I saw you pick up a kid and he gave you his money in complete fear."

'Man she's good,' he thought with his eye twitching. "Does this mean we can keep him?"

"Yes we can. It might be good for you to have a pet around the house, instead of jacking people out of their money. Give him a name."

"Hmmm... he looks like a tough tiger. I'll call him Destructive Unstoppable Killing Engine!"

"Eerrr... that sound a bit long doesn't it, Kai. Shorten it down to something like... Uhhh... Duke?"

"OK That'll do," Kai replied petting his new pet.

~*~End Flashback~*~

'Hhmm... after that, he gave me some kind of training and look at me now. I hope master'll come back.' Duke thought laying down next to the chair.

Mariah looked at the peaceful tiger and scratched his ear. "I bet you wished you had things like they used to be, don'tcha Duke. Don't worry, I know he'll come back." Mariah said trying to put a smile on her face.

Up in a tree nearby, a dark figure was looking at them and sighed. 'I'll return. I'll be back tomorrow," the figure said before jumping to a new tree and another.
