skarmory-Well, close enough, I'm just trying to spell the words in the easiest to way to read and pronounce it as possible.
Atem's Queen of The Nile- No duh he'll get a concussion! You should have one with Kaida keeping Kai in line and Chris or Ulrich can make a joke of it like they did last chapter about how obedient he is. You want Kai II/Gou? Well, you're gonna have to fight for him then…and you'll see why with small clues throughout the story. Anyway, I'm actually going to do something like your idea about Tek seeing Kai's son. It's most likely going to be at the end with a joke my friend made up because well…its Tek, she's stupid yet daring and cunning and there's Kai Jr. who's Kai's son.
Phoenix from the Flames-2-Well the parents aren't gone yet, they're still here and will appear once in a while throughout the story.
And it's updated for you guys! So here it is!
The next morning, Gou wasn't home so Makoto had to give his friends a call.
"Yeah, so have you seen him, Mark?" Makoto asked on the phone.
"Of course I saw him, he spent the night here," said Mark.
"WHAT? WHY DIDN'T YOU MAKE HIM COME BACK HERE? KAIYA WAS WORRIED SICK!"
"Makoto, that hurts my ears and Gou didn't want me to," said Mark.
"Well, then is he coming here?" Makoto asked,
"No, he disappeared this morning," said Mark and Makoto does an anime fall.
"WHY DIDN'T YOU STOP HIM?"
"VOLUME! And he was gone before I woke up!"
"(Sigh) I guess we have to look for him," said Makoto and rounds up the team.
"And can you Majestics get out of my house?" Makoto asked when he finished his call with Cam.
"Why? We just got here," said Laird on the couch watching T.V.
"OUT! GO TO BACK TO EUROPE NOW!" Makoto shouted that it could be heard for the next couple of miles.
"You didn't have to kick them out like that," said Rayna.
"I don't have time for them around my dojo if one of my friends is missing. Plus, I know that they're going to ruin this place and since Grandpa (technically, great grandpa) is already filling up my uncle's hands, and my mother is out, I can't baby-sit them!" said Makoto and took in a deep breath to release his moment of stress.
The team went looking around town and when lunch time came around, they still couldn't find him.
"My parents would kill me if they knew I lost him," said Kaiya and slumps back on her chair at this burger restaurant.
"I'm sure they wouldn't," said Mark.
"I'm still trying to figure out why he gets so angry whenever he's compared to his father," said Rayna stirring her drink.
"He hates it when people say that he looks just like his father or that he's so much like him when he's not. It was just that but eventually he hates it when they're compared at all," said Kaiya looking up at the ceiling and remembered just last week…
Last week:
It was night and Kaiya had to drag her brother back to his room because he fell asleep in the living room. She puts him down and tucks him in, but when she was about to leave, Gou woke up.
"Kaiya?"
"Yes?"
"Do you remember that night when I was 5 and you were 6?" he asked,
"A lot of stuff happed when we were that age at night. Did you still carried your stuffed bird and stuffed dragon around that time?" said Kaiya as she crossed her arms to wait until her brother is finished.
"Yeah, the night when I woke you up because I saw and heard something…"
Flashback:
"Kaiya, wake up!" Gou shook while holding his red phoenix and brown dragon. The two have a bunk bed and Kaiya has the bottom.
"Phtph…no…" Kaiya groaned.
"Please Kaiya! I saw something! I didn't like it and I'm scared!" Gou whined.
Kaiya slowly sat up in her bed,
"What is it, you big baby?" she asked rubbing eyes (it's around 10:30 at night)
"I'm not a baby! I'm five!" Gou argued back.
"Well what did you see?" Kaiya asked a little more awake.
"I wanted to go get some water by myself but when I reached the door, I heard shouting and yelling. I was scared but I realized it was Mommy and Daddy that were shouting at each other…"
"Why would Mommy and Daddy shout at each other?" Kaiya asked sleepily.
"I don't know! But it was scary because it was loud and Dad sounded angry. Then I saw…" Gou had tears coming and Kaiya saw. Even though she was only six, she still took complete responsibility for her brother's happiness.
"Oh gosh Gou, don't cry! I'm sure it wasn't that scary! You were probably overreacting a bit," said Kaiya and went into a stand to hug her brother.
"He hit her," said Gou quietly. Kaiya knew he meant their parents.
"What? He wouldn't," said Kaiya.
"But I saw…"
"Okay, okay, I believe you just don't cry!"
(F.Y.I. it was really a slap but kids don't really know a difference)
Back to memory of last week:
"Yeah I remember that night, but now you know that parents argue once in a while," said Kaiya.
"Yeah, but…even now, Father isn't someone I like," said Gou.
"Why? He's not scary," said Kaiya.
"I'm not scared of him, yet I am. It's hard to explain but I just don't like him," said Gou.
"…Gou, there has to be a reason why," said Kaiya and left the room.
"Yeah, bad memories, never calling me by my first name, getting scolded by him only, you getting all the attention by him, you getting Dranzer from him, and then…him changing you, Kaiya…" Gou said to himself and went to sleep. (Kaiya didn't hear what Gou said)
Present:
"Gou…"
"Don't worry, Kaiya, we'll find Gou," said Makoto.
"I'm so worried, Gou always seem to get into a lot of trouble when he's on his own. Like when he met Minkah and he mistook him for a girl! And that was less than half an hour!" said Rayna.
"Gou's…well, he's Gou. Stubborn, tough, cunning, a prankster in some cases, but he's good at handling things," said Tai and took a big bite from his burger.
"Where's Cam? We can use Dizzi to track down Dragix," said Makoto.
Gou went walking around town that morning. Then started training on his own. He saw his friends occasionally but ran away from them.
"Can't they just leave me alone?" he asked himself as he ran.
He kept running until he got to the beach…
Flashback:
"Take that!" Kaiya shouted (age 7) and dumped a pale of sand on her dad who was lying under the shades of the big umbrella in his regular clothes trying to take a nap before Kaiya attacked him.
"Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! I got you!"
"KAIYA!" he snapped and she fell silent in fear.
"Now Kai-Kai, don't scare her, she just wants you to play," said Kaida who walked over and placed a picnic basket down and sat next to him.
"I don't want to play…" he said.
"You got to take responsibility as a father. We both knew that when you asked me to marry you. Now Kaiya looks up to you a lot, the least you can do is play with her when she asks," said Kaida giving Kaiya something to eat.
"…Alright…what do you want to do, Kaiya?"
"Um…can I put sand all over you?" she asked.
"…No…"
"Kaiya!" Gou shouted coming out from the waters
"Yeah?"
"I don't want to go in!" he shouted pointing at the waters.
"Why?" she asked as her brother comes over to join the family.
"I saw a dead fish!"
"Eww!" said Kaiya.
"I know, it was half open too!"
"You don't have to go in if you don't want to. Here, have a sandwich," said Kaida handing it over to him and patting him on the back.
"I don't like the beach anymore…" Gou whimpered.
"Son, suck it up," said his father and Kaida nudged him… hard.
Present:
"Suck it up, he says, I was only about 6 I think? Well I have, over a lot of things," he said and Gou continues walking. Then he walked by the arcade and saw Tara there talking with her team. She spotted him.
"Gou?" she walked over to him.
"What?" Gou asked in a serious tone. Tara was surprised; Gou's never the serious type when it comes to a greeting, or anything else, he's got a temper but not like this and Tara's face softened.
"What's wrong?"
"It's nothing," he said.
"Doesn't sound like nothing, I saw your team a while ago and they were looking for you. So why are you staying away from them?" Tara asked with her normal expression back again.
"Because I want to be alone, I hate being looked under," he said and walked on.
"Gou, I hope you know someone's after you," said Tara in a soft voice. Gou didn't listen.
Gou didn't know where he was going because he wasn't even looking straight, he was looking down. He bumped into somebody and looked up to see someone wearing a cloak so he couldn't see his face.
"I heard you've been going through some troubles," said the figure in a cold, deep, and to some, scary voice.
"Back off," he said and walked past him.
"Do you want to become stronger? And be the best without being underestimated?" the figure asked and Gou stopped.
"What do you mean?" he asked without turning around.
"I heard what people say about you, they say you're just like your father but I know you're not,"
"Oh really?" Gou asked and turned around this time to face this mysterious figure to figure what he really means.
"Yes, you're stronger, but you lack something. You lack power,"
"No I don't, power isn't everything in a beybattle if that's what you're talking about," said Gou and crossed his arms.
"You're blade is named Dragix am I right? Yes, Dragix is strong, but not as strong as Dranzer,"
"Not true, my mother has defeated my father just as many times as he has beaten her. You're talking nonsense, I'm outta here," said Gou turning back around to walk again.
"Would you like to defeat your sister and prove that you're just as good as she is but better? Don't you want to show your father that you deserve respect?"
"...What do you want?" Gou asked without looking at the figure.
"I want to help you. But yes, there is a cost, I give you something that will make you the strongest blader and you give me Dragix,"
"WHAT? NEVER!" Gou snapped.
"That's your choice," said the figure and puts his hand out and opens it revealing a black blade and Gou gasped.
"Black Dranzer…it's real,"
"This for Dragix, this is your chance to prove yourself,"
"But…Black Dranzer is dangerous…" Gou thought and still had that shocked expression on his face.
"This is your chance to prove your worth…Gou Hiwatari…"
"WHERE IS HE?" Makoto shouted at the top of his lungs after looking for about 4-5 hours.
"Okay, now I'm scared," said Rayna.
"…You know guys, I might know where he is," said Kaiya taking her hand off her chin.
"Oh now you have an idea where he is?" Tai asked in an annoyed voice.
"Yeah…" said Kaiya and took off.
"Hey wait! Kaiya!" Mark called after her and the gang ran after her.
Kaiya stopped in front of her home,
"Gou, please be here," said Kaiya as she walked in. Her house, or mansion, hasn't been walked in for a while for some reason. There were actually a few cobwebs visible. Kaiya looked around and knows that her parents weren't around either. She walked upstairs to her room which is the same room she shares with her brother.
Her friends ran up to the mansion,
"What's she doing here?" Tai asked.
"Let's just follow her," said Mark and they walked in.
Kaiya opened the bedroom and the life before she met Makoto and the others, came flying back to her mind. Kaiya climbed the small ladder to the top part of the bunk bed and there he was. Gou was asleep and seems to have moved around in his sleep since the blanket was down to his stomach. Kaiya puts on a smile and tucks him in, then she grabbed the two stuffed animals he loved when he was little from this truck and puts the two next to him.
"(sigh) You idiot, you scared me," said Kaiya and climbed down the ladder and closed the door on her way out.
Gou opened his eyes and sat up and looked at the door.
"Kaiya…" then Kai shook his head to snap himself out of it.
He puts his stuffed phoenix and dragon to the side and lifts his pillow up to check on his new black blade…
"I'm sorry, Mom," he said quietly.
Next: His friends got suspicious whenGou refused to train with them. Then Kaiya found an old photo album from her parents' room. Plus, back in China, Kaida fell ill…
Please R and R!
