"Someone speaking in Russian. Usually the Blitzkrieg Boys and Kai."

Bryan had seen enough. He jumped off the roof, into the street and made his way back to the Blitzkrieg Boys' hotel (A/N- they don't own the hotel… Judas' sake!). He tried to imagine his team's reaction when he told them…

Flash forward (Think chibi forms!)

"Hey Bry. Where were you?" Ian asked, Bryan shrugged.

"Nowhere."

"Well, you've been gone about 15 minutes, so…"

"Ok, I found Granger's house, and him and that neko-jin were arguing about me. Granger hit Kon and Kon walked away. No biggy."

"…"

End Flash forward

His little vision was forced to stop, since his phone in his arm pocket vibrated. He unstrapped the Velcro and pulled out the little black flip phone.

"Da?"

"Hey Bry." Ian's voice drifted through the speaker.

"What do you want?"

"Ha, just to torment you. Come back to the hotel!"

"Why-?"

"Ian! Give me the phone!" Tala's voice was heard in the background, then became louder. "Listen, Bryan. Don't come back to the hotel."

"Why? Am I out past curfew?" Bryan taunted.

"Do you value your life?"

"Yeah, why? You going to kill me?"

"Not me… yet."

"Then who?"

"Fan girls."

"Ah, crap." He sighed at a mental image of thousands of fan girls screaming at the main door of the hotel. "Ok, I'll see yah later then. Oh and Tala?"

"Da?"

"Tell Ian, if he's not careful, I'll chuck him straight at those fan girls next time I see them."

Tala's laugh was cut off as Bryan hung up. He re-pocketed the little phone, and made a detour away from the hotel's parameter. If he gave it a wide berth, then he wouldn't be spotted.

"OH MY GOD! BRYAN!"

"Oh c-"

Bryan sighed as he sat down next to the river, under the bridge. Those fan girls ran pretty fast, but he was faster. He was going to kill Tala for not warning him earlier.

"Ray, I know you're there, so there's no point in hiding." He said abruptly. Ray appeared from around the corner of the bridge; from Bryan's position, he couldn't see the neko's bruise.

"How'd you know I was there?" He asked with a small smile, sitting next to the lavender haired youth. Bryan shrugged. "Oh well. Why're you here?"

"Fan girls." He grumbled. Ray laughed. "I don't need to ask why you're here. I know." Ray stopped, looking down at the river.

"You heard." He murmured.

"Not every single word, but I got the gist of it." He paused, looking at Ray's sullen face. "Did you mean what you said?"

Ray looked up at him. Bryan could now see a bit of his bruised cheek.

"Why would I fight for something that wasn't true? I mean sure, there's still a part of me that wants to punch, kick and bite you till you're an inch from death yourself, but it wasn't your fault." Ray said, a corner of his mouth kicking up a bit.

Wouldn't mind the biting part… WHAT THE HELL?

"Wouldn't care anyway. Be better than fan girls." He gave a visible shudder that made Ray laugh again.

"You know. You're not like I thought you'd be personally. You seem all ice hard, but under all that, you're a cushy, marshmallow-y creature."

Bryan raised an eyebrow. "A… what?"

Ray laughed again, a small blush painting the top of his nose.

"Sorry…" He mumbled.

"Don't mention it." Bryan said with a lop-sided smirk. "You should be calling Tala 'a cushy, marshmallow-y creature'. He may act cocky, but… he is, according to Kai and I quote, 'As friendly as the Easter bunny who got all his eggs back and decided to hit everyone over the heads with them.'"

"Kai… really said that?" Ray asked.

And they chatted for the next few hours, oblivious of the person who was watching them…

Ray: Who's watching us?

Demi-goddess: Not telling…

Bryan: Do you even know?

Demi-goddess: Yep. Oh and watch out for possible fluffy-ness next chapter! Ray…

Ray: Yep. Got it covered.

KamiaKotai-

Ray: Hey to you too! Demi-goddess is glad that you love the new chapter and that you think the story gets better and better. You get home schooled? Oh, wow. Tis cool.

Demi-goddess: What's with the 'tis'?

Ray: (shrug) dunno. I felt like it again.

Demenior-

Everyone: HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU! HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU! HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO DEMENIOR! HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!

Ray: Why'd you write out the whole happy birthday song?

Demi-goddess: Felt like it too.

Ray: cool. Anyway, happy birthday Demenior! Oh and I've persuaded Kai to give you a hug.

Kai: Dammit Ray, I'll kill you next time I see you. (Hugs Demenior) (Walks off to go hug Tala)

Ray: Two new stories? Ok, Demi-goddess will read them. Bye and hope you get loads of pressies!

aries1391-

Ray: You… you don't like me? (Cries)

Demi-goddess: There, there, Ray. (Hugs Ray) Um, Tala… do the rest of the review please. (Ray and Demi-goddess walk off)

Tala: Right. Yes, Tyson punched Ray. And I can't tell you if it's Bry/Ray so, don't ask. Hehe. Yeah, Demi-goddess changed the title… makes a little bit more sense now… well, we think that anyway. But, you gave Demi-goddess an idea for a sequel to this sequel…

Kai: How many sequels is she gonna do?

Demi-goddess: (Offside) Until I eat mah self!
