AG329: Wow, I updated this chapter very fast…

Tala: Do I get my girlfriend?

AG329: No. You'll get her next chappie.

Tala: Oh, ok. Disclaimer: AG329 does not own beyblade, and thank god she doesn't because if she did, I would quit so fast…she does own her OC's though…

AG329: glares at Tala Time for the reviewers to get their well deserved replies.

Lil' angelgrl: He is going to be a little confused, but not because she ran off. He's not gonna think about it much either because it is, after all, Kai. Yuki, on the other hand, as you will see in this chapter, thinks about it a lot. Thanx for reviewing.

LeVeL27Guitar: Nope, Tala won't be forgotten…I love him too much, though I do love Kai more. Ok, at least it fit the mood. It's really hard to put Kai in a romance scene without making him a little OOC, plus I wrote that chapter at like midnight.

Kristy Himura: I read your story, in fact I was the 3rd person to review it. I reviewed it in like July, so I couldn't review the same chapter, please try to find a way to update, its really good. Its ok, I like to say everyone who reviewed my story, so it's no problem at all.

Heartgirl: Heh, don't worry; I'm not that patient either. This is the fastest I ever updated. It usually takes me 5-7 days. I might be going away for a couple of weeks, but I'm not sure yet. I hope I don't though because I really don't want to miss the first couple days of school, and I would really miss all of you.

Well enough of my incoherent blabbing and on with the story!

Chapter Seven: My Feelings for You: The Semi-Finals End

Normal POV

The ocean waves crashed along the shoreline of the beach as seagulls swooped down from up above catching fish in their beaks. A gentle wind blew, spraying water at a boy with a cold, indifferent, expressionless face. Or that's what it seemed. If one were to look close enough into his deep, mysterious, lilac eyes, they would see a hint of confusion and a hint of another emotion that the boy could not comprehend.

'What the fuck…' Kai stood at the edge of the water trying to figure out what had just happened as he stared at the spot Yuki stood barely a few moments before. 'I had no control over my actions…it's like my brain just shut down and all my lessons of emotions being a weakness just disappeared…' He shook his head, trying to understand more than he could imagine. 'Why did I feel compassion to her and try to comfort her? Better yet…why did I kiss her like that? It's not like I like her…right?...Damn, I need to stop thinking so hard. Right now I should be concentrating on my upcoming match against Lee. I need to be at the top of my game if I want to beat him without Dranzer…Dranzer…damn you Yuki.' Kai turned causing his scarf to flow backwards. Another breeze hit Kai, but he didn't notice. As he was walking back to the hotel, all of his thoughts about Yuki and what happened disappeared, but Kai subconsciously knew that they would be back.

Meanwhile

Yuki sat on a rock in her favorite spot in the park, which was by the little isolated pond. She fingered her blade, and then took it out of her pocket. It started to glow and a cheetah with flames around it jumped out.

/What's wrong mistress/

'Why did I go to Kai for support? Better yet, why did I kiss him back?'

/Have you ever thought that maybe you like him/

'What? That's impossible! Kiama, you must be delusional. Why would I ever like a jerk like him? He may not have killed my parents, but he is still a bastard!'

/Please mistress, just think about it for a moment. /

'No. There's no way I could ever like him.'

/That's funny. I recall you telling Miss. Mariah that you were once in love with young Kai. /

'That's different. I was young and stupid.'

/It's not different, and if you ask me, you are still young and quite stupid if you do not realize that you like young master Kai/

'Well no one asked you.'

Kiama sighed and began to retreat back into her blade. Before entering, she took one last glance at Yuki, who looked to be deep in thought. Kiama smiled at that, knowing that her mistress was indeed thinking about their conversation.

Yuki sighed and stood up. She pocketed her blade and started to head home.

Mika's POV

The girls and I were sitting in the living room when we heard the door open. We looked up to see Boss come in. She looked like she was deep in thought about something. It was weird; I've never seen her like this before.

"Boss, are you ok?" She glanced at Mel, who had asked her the question and nodded her head to indicate she was indeed fine. With that, she headed up to her room. The others shrugged it off and continued to talk, but I just couldn't help but feel something was wrong with my friend.

I got up and followed Boss to her room. No one noticed me leave, and I didn't bother to tell them either. I knocked on Boss's door and waited for an answer.

"Who is it?" I heard Boss say from inside her room. She sounded quite preoccupied with something.

"Boss? It's Mika. Can I come in?"

"Sure." I opened the door and saw Boss lying on her bed, while staring at the ceiling. The walls were painted a baby pink with pictures of black roses on them. The ceiling was black with a picture of Kiama in the center. Her bed matched the walls, and the floor was an off-white carpet.

I sat on the edge of her bed and looked at her. She glanced at me, then returned her gaze back to the ceiling.

"What's wrong?" I heard myself ask.

"Nothing." I was sure it wasn't nothing, and I was determined to find out what happened to make her like this.

"It's not nothing, Yuki! I can tell something's wrong, so tell me what it is. I'm your best friend, Yuki. I want to help." She looked at me and spoke.

"You called me Yuki."

"Yes, and I don't care if you get mad at me." I saw her smile at this, and I looked at her confused. Before I could ask, she hugged me. I returned the hug, also smiling.

"Thanks." It was muffled, but I knew that's what she said. "You don't know how much it means to me that you just called me Yuki."

"Will you tell me what's wrong?" I heard Yuki sigh as she looked at me.

"Ok. After Tala told us the truth, I went to the beach. I saw Kai there and I told him what Tala told us. He comforted me, and then he kissed me. I-I kissed him back, but I quickly realized what I was doing and pushed away. Then I went to the park and talked to Kiama. She said that I like Kai, but I said that I don't, and well…now I just don't know hat to think." Yuki lowered her head when she finished her speech as if she was ashamed of what happened. I smiled. I knew that Kiama was right and that Yuki likes Kai, but I wasn't going to tell her that. She would have to figure it out for herself.

"Don't worry about it. Come on, the match between the White Tiger X team and the G Revolution is going to start soon, and I want to be there to cheer on my boy."

"You and Ray make a great couple." It shocked me to hear Yuki say that, but instead of questioning her, I smiled and hugged her.

"Thanks, now come on." I was going to get Yuki to come with me even if I had to force her. Not only because she is the captain, and she needs to know what our opponents will be like, but also because Kai would be there, and I want to help her realize her feelings for him.

"Sure. I guess I can go and cheer on Mari…"

"Mari?" I was confused.

"Mariah. She's a good friend, and it was me who got her to realize that she doesn't like Ray and only cares for him like a brother."

"Oh, ok. Thanks." We got the rest of the girls and headed down to the stadium. We spotted Tala and sat with him. Both teams were already preparing themselves. The match was going to start.

Kai's POV

I glanced over to the audience and spotted Tala. He gave me a reassuring smile, and I just grunted. I noticed Yuki walk in with the other girls. She was smiling. Damn, she looks so cute…wait, what am I thinking? I mentally kicked myself. She must have noticed Tala because I saw them sit next to him. Yuki took the seat next to Tala, and I couldn't help but feel a bit jealous…wait, what the fuck is wrong with me? It's Yuki! She's barely even a friend! I turned my gaze away from her and gave the Chief my full attention.

"Ok, so Max will go first against Kevin. After him, Ray will go against Mariah, and Kai will go against Lee. Is that ok with everyone?" The team nodded and Ray sat down next to me.

"So Kai, are you sure you want to battle Lee? I mean…" Ray trailed off.

"I'll be fine."

"Are you sure?"

"Hn." Ray was about to say something, but Brad Best's voice cut him off.

"Welcome, Beyblade fans! This is the last semi-finals match between the deadly White Tiger X team, and the always awesome G Revolution!" His voice rang through the arena. I found this very annoying. I wish they would just get on with it.

"Up first for the White Tigers is Kevin! He is a feisty little guy and his crazy monkey attack is not to be taken lightly! For the G Revolution is Max! His defensive moves have proven to be almost impenetrable! Kevin better watch himself!" AJ Topper finished introducing the bladers and DJ Jazzman started the countdown.

"3, 2, 1, Let It Rip!" Both blades were launched and Kevin Began his attack almost instantly, but Max was able to hold his ground.

"Go! Galman! Crazy Monkey!" Kevin's Galman started to head for the kill. Max better win this.

"Go! Draciel! Gravity Control!" Max's move stopped Kevin's attack and knocked out his blade, winning us the match.

"The G Revolution win!" yelled AJ Topper.

"Up next is Mariah from the White Tiger X. Don't let he innocent looks fool you, she's one tough cookie and so is her bitbeast Galux. Her opponent from the G Revolution will be Ray! A former teammate, Ray and Mariah have managed to still be good friends. He is a tough opponent and his Driger bitbeast is very good in the speed portion of beyblading!" When Brad Best's speech ended, the countdown began.

"3, 2, 1, Let It Rip!"

"Driger, go!"

"Galux!" Driger was gaining speed, making it impossible for Galux to attack. Mariah looked on helplessly. All of a sudden, I heard someone yell out from the quiet audience. I turned my head to see it was Yuki.

"Mari! Listen, Ray specializes in speed! Find a way to slow him down, and you've got this match in the bag!" Mariah's face lit up and her eyes turned to slits. I knew there was going to be trouble.

"You're right. Thanks Yuki. Now! Galux! Cat Bights!" I watched confused. Driger was going to fast for her to attack him, so what was she doing? Then it hit me. She wasn't trying to hit him! I got up to tell Ray, but it was too late.

"Ha! You missed!"

"Oh, did I?" Ray looked at Mariah confused, and then it hit him. When she attacked, she created ditches in the dish. If Ray keeps going as fast as he is, he'll hit one of these ditches and lose. Mariah had found a way to slow him down. "Now! Galux! Use Cat Bights!" Galux attacked Driger sending him flying. Mariah won.

"Congratulations, Mariah." Ray shook her hand then came back.

"Thanks, Ray." Mariah did the same.

AJ Topper announced the win and said that it was now at a tie and the final match would determine the winners. Then Brad Best introduced me and Lee to the crowd.

"For the final match, it will be Lee of the White Tiger X. Being the strongest blader on his team, he will be a tough opponent. From the G Revolution is Kai! He is one of the best bladers the world has to offer, but it is rumored that he no longer has his bitbeast Dranzer! Will he be strong enough to defeat Lee without him?" I glared at Brad Best and waited for the countdown.

"3, 2, 1, Let It Rip!"

Normal POV

'Kai…you can do this…' Yuki watched the two blades crash into each other. Lee clearly had an advantage over Kai in this battle.

"So the almighty Kai Hiwatari isn't as great as everyone says he is."

"Shut the fuck up Lee!" Kai was getting madder by the second, but Lee didn't notice as he called his bitbeast and attacked.

"Go! Galeon! Spiral Lightning!"

'No! Kai!' Yuki was really worried that he was going to lose.

/Mistress? Why are you so worried about young master Kai/ Kiama asked even though she already knew what the answer would be.

'Because I-I love him.' As if on cue, Yuki's blade glowed and the majestic phoenix broke free of his imprisonment. He charged into his master's blade just in time to stop Lee's attack. The whole crowd was in awe.

'H-How did he escape?' Yuki was confused and Kiama answered her with a logical reason.

/Lord Dranzer was able to break free because you admitted to yourself your feelings about young master Kai. /

Lee watched in horror as Dranzer returned to Kai and stopped Galeon's attack. Kai, on the other hand, simply smirked and decided it was time to finish this battle that has gone on too long for his taste.

"Lee, prepare yourself. Dranzer! Flame Gigs Turbo!" Dranzer swiftly attacked Galeon sending him flying.

"And the winner is Kai! The G Revolution will proceed to the finals and will battle the beautiful Purity Bladers in an all-out war!"

The two teams went to the center to congratulate each other. Tala and the Purity Bladers also went over.

"Congrats, guys!" Tala shook hands with the G Rev with the Purity Bladers, with the exception of Yuki, following suite.

"Ya, I guess they deserve it." They all looked at Yuki, and then Mika asked the unasked question that everyone was thinking.

"Yuki, why did you release Dranzer?"

"I didn't." Everyone stared confused. Yuki sighed and explained it to them. "I admitted something to myself during the match, no I will not tell you what, and I must have let my guard down because Dranzer was able to escape and return to Kai." The group nodded in understanding. Mariah and Mika both smirked and looked at each other. They knew that Yuki admitted to liking Kai.

"Hey! I have an idea!" Everyone stared at Kimi. (A/N: Is this like the first time she's spoken in a few chapters?...)

"What is it?" Daichi asked. (A/N: Oops…I forgot about Daichi too, didn't I?...)

"Why don't you all sleep over our house? After all, the finals are late tomorrow afternoon." Everyone agreed to this except for Lee, Kevin, and Gary saying they had stuff to do. And so, the others headed to the Hiwatari home.

AG329: There you go! I hope you liked it. The next chapter will be Chapter 8: A sleepover and a meeting

Yuki: sighs

AG329: What's wrong with you?

Yuki: Nothing, I'm just thinking about Kai…

AG329: You're obsessed…

Yuki" Am not!

AG329 and Yuki: start a big meaningless fight

Mika: Um…please review so she can update the next chapter. Also, if you have any ideas for truth or dare, don't hesitate to tell her what they are! No, the chapter won't be all truth or dare, just a little part.

Tala: Can you tell me who my girlfriend will be?

Mika: Figure that out for yourself…

AG329: Hold on! I'm curious…this has nothing to do with the story, but I would like to know.
