Me: hello everyone! No school tomorrow! Just a recollection though. Hale: yeah… a recollection… Me: Hale, what's wrong? Hale: nothing… just bored… (Sees an ant). Me: (holds back Hale's hand) no more torturing of ants when bored please. Hale: kill-joy… Me: (thinking) look who's talking.
Chapter 21: Nobody's Fool
"Oh I just want to say congratulations on your new relationship with Tala," Kai said. Kaze was shocked and she looked at her brother. "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone, like I'd let my own sister and best friend get punished," Kai said. Kaze smiled.
"Yeah but do you have to know everything?" Kaze said.
"I'm just a concerned brother looking out for his sister to make sure she doesn't get hurt," Kai said.
"Heheh, I see," Kaze said. There was silence.
"So did you get your valentine's package?" Kai asked. Kaze nodded.
"Uh-huh, and they're a lot," Kaze said.
"Well that happens every Valentine's Day, you get tons of presents from your secret admirers, just look at my bag, it's about the size of yours," Kai said.
"And I'm only new, I thought I wouldn't have any secret admirers until after a month or so," Kaze said.
"Well good-looks do run in the Hiwatari family," Kai said. Kaze giggled. "What's so funny?" Kai asked.
"Oh nothing," Kaze said and got off the rail. "I'm going back in the room to open my bag, you wanna come brother?" Kaze asked.
"Not yet, maybe when I'm hungry, I just know there's gonna be tons of chocolate," Kai said.
"Heheh, all right," Kaze said. She went down to she and Kai's room where Tala and her put the bag. She opened the bag and you know what happens… she sees the usual Valentine's gifts, roses, boxes of chocolates and those kinds of stuff. She looked at the cards attached to them that were filled with short poems; she wasn't surprised that most of them were labeled from 'secret admirers'. Some weren't though. Kaze found a bunch of roses in the bag and she noticed a letter in the bunch of roses. "What's this?" Kaze asked herself. She opened the letter and it read…
'Hey Kaze, I won't tell you who I am, you'll find out who I am soon, I just want to say that I really like you and I was hoping you could be my girlfriend, I'll wait for your answer today at 5:00, don show anyone else this letter, -anonymous,'.
Kaze didn't know what to do, she didn't want to hurt the guy but she already has Tala as her boyfriend. She had no choice but to confront the guy and tell him she can't be his girlfriend. Plus the guy didn't want her to show anyone else the letter, so she can't really ask for advice. She sighed, she had to do this. Someone knocked on her door. "Who is it?" Kaze asked hiding the letter in one of the drawers.
"It's me, Tala, Kaze we have to go now, the tournament's about to start," Tala said.
"Be right there," Kaze said. She grabbed her beyblade, ripcord and launcher and went out of her room. "Who are we up against?" Kaze asked.
"Ah you'll see, DJ will announce it once we're there," Tala said.
"Oh all right," Kaze said. Once they were there…
"Good afternoon beybladers and beyblade fans alike and welcome to the 3rd world championships!" DJ said and the crowd grew wild. "Please give a hand to the teams that are here right now and they are: BBA Revolution! White Tigers X! PPB Allstarz! Blitzkrieg! And the newcomers: F-dynasty and Barthez Battalion!" DJ said. The crowd grew EVEN wilder. "Okay! Not that we all know the teams! Let's get this tournament started!" DJ said and the crowd grew to the maximum level WILD. "Today! The White Tigers X team will be up against BBA Revolution!" DJ said.
"Hey, what happened to team BEGA?" Spencer asked.
"I guess they didn't manage to register yet, anyways this is just the 1st round anyway," Kai said.
"Well we're not battling today, so let's just go, or do you guys wanna watch the tournament?" Tala said.
"Let's watch first," Bryan said.
"All right, but I have to go somewhere at 5," Kaze whispered.
"Where?" the four boys asked.
"Sorry but… I can't tell you guys…" Kaze said.
"But you could always trust us Kaze," Tala said.
"Yeah," Spencer said.
"It's not like we'll tell anyone," Bryan said.
"Plus I'm your brother," Kai said.
"Yeah but you guys have to respect my privacy, some secrets shouldn't be revealed, and this one's one of them, please understand guys," Kaze said.
"All right," the four said. There was silence, well except the sound of Ray and Tyson shouting, the crowd cheering and beyblades crashing into each other.
"Now, let's enjoy the tournament, shall we?" Kaze said.
"Sure," they all said. Silence once again.
"Aren't you guys gonna find seats?" Kaze said.
"Um… you go ahead sis, we'll follow," Kai said.
"Uh… okay…" Kaze said and left.
"Okay is she totally gone?" Bryan said.
"Yeah, she can't hear us from that far," Tala said.
"Why are we having this little meeting anyway?" Bryan asked.
"Because I can't stand secrets from my sister," Kai said.
"Wait, we made a promise that we should respect her privacy," Spencer said.
"We didn't exactly promise, we just said we'd understand her privacy," Kai said.
"And I'm kinda curious myself…" Tala whispered. Kai smirked.
"Why? Can't stand it when your girlfriend's keeping something from you?" Kai teased in Tala's ear so the others won't hear.
Me: hey! That last line rhymed! Hale: so? Me: you're still bored aren't you? Hale: yes… Me: no wonder… (sighs)… and I'd like to thank these 2 people who reviewed!
