Thank you for the reviews! It makes me happy to at least 7 reviews for the first chapter. I feel so touched! I just realized that this story is fantasy/mystery/romance type so if you don't like any those genres, don't read this! Beware though; I stalk reviewers.

Disclaimer: I don't own Beyblade, it belongs to Aoki Takao.


He smiled and then held his hand out, " Hi, I'm Rei Kon, How are ya?" I blinked and edged back two steps, he actually talked. Rei noticed how scared I looked and then chuckled, " Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you!"

I didn't really like this guy but I introduced myself just to be polite. " I'm Max Mizuhara."

There was a long silence, as we stood there for a moments. I swayed back and forth while my feet were planted firmly on the ground, as some describe it as standing my ground. I thought to myself, 'Is anything going to happen now?'

Then, I noticed a quick movement by Rei as he took a large step towards me. I felt a warm breath brush over my left ear, "I'm sorry." Of I was surprised yet scared in some way but then I was knocked unconscious.

I groan quietly as I rubbed the back of my head while blinking continuously. The place around me was dark so I couldn't make out where I was. Cautiously I felt the area under me, it was soft and plushy. My eyes flew open as I checked to see if I still had my clothes on. Thankfully I did, no body disruption yet.

Sighing out loud, I looked around and saw a small glowing dot of light. I slowly made my way towards it. Right foot, left foot, right foot, left foot, and the pattern continues until I could feel the corner of a table where the light sat. I reached out and touched it. I hissed out loud because that small light turned out to be a flame from a lit lantern. Letting my tongue lick at the burn wasn't as soothing as I thought.

A flood of light washed over the room as someone opened the door. I couldn't see who it was but then I heard Rei's voice, " Max, are you awake? "

I squeaked in response.

He laughed and then walked over towards me, as he did I saw his features a bit better. Rei then held my slightly burnt finger and lightly kissed it. I felt my face burning with embarrassment. The embarrassment burning was more painful then the finger burn.

I quickly withdrew my hand from his touch and he looked a bit startled, or it was just me being paranoid. All he did was just smile, I glared evilly at him in my mind.

It was another quiet moment, he blinked, I blinked, he blinked again and I blinked again. I already hated the awkward moments between the both of us. Then I realized that I was kidnapped. I wasn't in my house, I was just in an alleyway where the mysterious murderer lurks and Rei was just someone I just met. I put one to another adding it up in my mind.

It was then, when I decided to have an outburst. " ARE YOU THE MURDERER! "

He stared at me like I was crazy and then just smiled as he reached over to my ear again. I closed my eyes tightly as I felt his warm breath again. " Is it a problem for you? And it's not called murdering; it's known to be sacrificing. "

I could feel my face burning up again, then everything he just said processed through my head. A sacrifice? I stared at him and then questioned him, " What do you mean sacrificing? I thought that sort of thing is forbidden…"

Rei just grinned as he stood up and brushed off the dust from his pants " You'll have to find out on your own." My face automatically frowned, " Aww, c'mon! You got to at least give me a clue. "

All he did was smirk and wagged his finger.

I pouted and crossed my arms. My mind began to wander again as I watched Rei watched towards the door and leaving. Nothing in the gutter, mind you. It was strange; I should be looking for a way out not just sit here and think to myself. I saw Rei peek his head out from behind the door. "Are you hungry?"

I 'wah'-ed out loud, and he just stared at me for a moment, then he 'aww'-ed out loud. This time, it was me who stared back at him. "You look so cute when you're confused!" Of course this time I glared, he finished his aww-ing and repeated his question. I nodded my head rapidly.

Rei made a gesture, which told me to walk out of that door with that I followed his gesture and walked out of that door. What welcomed me was the strangest room I have ever seen.


I end the story now, sorry for the shortness and late updateness! >.
