Fluff's Corner: Okay, sorry for the one month delay. Anyways, thanx for all the reviews, everyone. I'm so glad to know that ya'll are still reading my stuff even though I hadn't reviewed the last chapter for two months! XD I also plan to review the story (until it's finished) every two weeks. Yes, it'll be a challenge for a lazy butt like me, but so be it. Hee hee. Well, that's about it for now, I won't keep you from reading this any futher. Go ahead, read it! Muahaz! Enjoy.
Fluff-note: Fluff-chan does not own Beyblade no matter how hard she tires! She only owns this story, so run away screaming!
Before completely falling asleep the previous night, Kai had kept himself up to think hard. Waking up to see a wide awake Tyson was not his cup of tea, so he woke up early (as usual) and hit the streets of town. He was currently lying silently atop the grassy hilled bank that was close to the nearby river. Letting the cool breeze blow through his hair, Kai's mind was empty from thoughts of Tyson…and Brooklyn.
"Having fun?" Kai slowly opened one eye to meet the humorous face of Max. "I know you probably don't want to be bothered, but Kenny's invited us to join him in waiting-in-line-for-Ming-Ming-tickets," he said happily.
Kai got up into a sitting position so that he could get a better look at the blond boy in front of him. He thought for a moment, then stood up. "Let's go."
Kenny was still trying to push Tyson out of bed when Max and Kai stopped by to pick them up. Kai still didn't know why he agreed to come. After all, he didn't want to face Tyson again, and he sure didn't want to see Ming Ming.
"Come on, Tyson! Look, Max and Kai are already waiting for us," Kenny's voice cut through Kai's thoughts. He looked up to greet the sight of Kenny pulling along a stuffed-mouthed Tyson.
Max chuckled. "Man, Tyson, can't you ever give up food for at least five minutes?"
Tyson rubbed his nose with his free, non-grease-stained hand. Then he stopped and looked up, towards Kai. "Hey Max, hey….Kai." He said coldly, making direct eye contact with Kai. "How are you two this morning?"
Kai could tell that Tyson was mad at him for leaving early. But he thought that the pig-faced boy would have realized by now that he would always leave him, no matter where they were, and mornings were no different.
"Are we going to see Ming Ming or what?" Kenny spoke up, breaking the awkward silence and saving everyone, apparently. The rest of the boys agreed, and they headed out to meet Ray who was already at the ticket stand.
"Hey guys, over here!" yelled Ray when his teammates had arrived and joined him. The walk to the ticket stand was silent except for the usual sound of Tyson chewing loudly. Ray looked confused when no reply was returned to him other than four lazily said, 'Hi's. "What's wrong?" he asked.
However, before Ray could receive his answer, a loud bang was heard from the front of the line. Everyone directed their attention towards where the noise was made. Slowly, a stage was rising up from the platform behind the ticket stand.
"Are you ready to rock and roll everyone?"
"It's Ming Ming!" Kenny screamed as he shot up onto Tyson's shoulders so that he could catch a better glimpse of the star. Tyson quickly shoved Kenny off of his shoulders and onto the ground. He then grabbed Kai's wrist and started to walk away angrily, leaving the boy on the ground.
"Ignore him, Chief," Max said, pulling Kenny up to his feet, "I'm sure he just went to cool off somewhere."
"Ha ha, yea, somewhere with food," Ray chuckled, "I'll go after him and Kai to make sure he's okay and doesn't get lost." With that, Ray was off and trailing Kai's blue hair.
A few minuets later, Kai loosened Tyson's grip on his wrist. Then, he quietly slipped away just as Tyson had found a burger stand, and Ray had caught up. As he was trotting away, loud shouts could be heard from Ray telling Tyson to keep his face away from the grill. Kai shook his head in disbelief at the childish antics of his raven-haired teammate. Slowly, the blue-haired boy made his way to a peaceful hill that was overlooking the crowd below. He leaned back against a rock, closed his eyes, and opened his ears to listen to the wind brush against the grass and tree leaves.
"Nice view isn't it?" said a voice from behind a nearby tree. Surprised, Kai turned around quickly expecting to see one of his teammates. The person on the other side of the tree slowly rose and walked around to face Kai. "Heh, heh, heh, fancy meeting you here, Kai."
Kai's eyes opened largely. He couldn't believe what, let alone who, he was seeing. Rapidly, his face lit up with happiness. He got up from where he was sitting and ran to wrap his arms around the person's neck. "Brooklyn," he sighed.
Brooklyn hugged Kai back, giving him a tight squeeze. He smiled then lightly pecked Kai on the forehead, making the boy in his arms giggle and blush (sorry, a little OOC for Kai there).
"Yeah," Brooklyn said happily, "I'm back."
Fluff's Cabinet: Okay, I'm very sorry that this chapter is so short. I really wanted to make it longer, but it just seemed perfect to stop it where it has stopped. On top of that, I couldn't really think of anything to put there. So, yea, the next chappie will have to be longer...and if it's not, you can complain in the reviews (for next chapter). Other than that, all I can say is PLEASE REVIEW! I live on them!
