Ch. 4: Training and Breakfast
"Hey, I almost forgot! Shouldn't we start eating breakfast soon? The food's getting cold." Kris reminded.
"Yeah! We totally forgot. Let's go inside and eat." Ray exclaimed.
Kris nodded and they went inside. The sweet aroma of chicken, mashed potatoes, beef, chicken-noodle-soup, and egg omelets went around the dining room.
"Man, that smells so good! Let's eat!" Tyson said.
"Hold your horses, Tyson. We got to wait till everyone's at the table." Max suggested.
"Oh, all right. But we better be quick about it cause I'M STARVING!"
Kris giggled softly.
Everyone sat at the table and began eating.
"This is really great! You're a great cook, Kris!" Ray complimented.
"Thanks, Ray. I was taught by my father. He used to be a famous chef back home. I wanted to learn how to cook for myself and the family so my dad taught me everything he knew."
"Well, you did an awesome job! This egg omelet is delicious!" Tyson said, while slurping down his soup.
After everyone was done eating, Kris cleared the table, put the dishes in the sink and started washing them.
"Here, let me help." Ray suggested.
Ray walked to the sink and started helping Kris.
"Thanks, Ray. By the way, where's everyone else going?" Kris asked as she noticed everyone else was walking out of the house.
"They're off to Bakuten Park, to train."
"Train for what?"
"For nothing. Just for fun. We mostly go there to take laps, train with our beyblades and stuff like that. Kai is the captain of the team."
"What team?"
"Our team. We're called the Bladebreakers."
"I remember know. I heard of you guys. You won the BEGA tournament last year."
"That's right."
"I wanted to be just like my mother when I was a kid. She was a famous beyblader before I was born. Her beyblade was Silver Phoenix. She gave it to me on my 13th birthday."
"Hey, what's your mom's name anyway?"
"Suzie Allen."
"I heard of her! I'd always watch her battle in tournaments when I was a kid."
"When I was little, my mom would tell me stories about her battles and about Silver Phoenix. I loved her stories so much that I would ask her to tell me them again."
Soon, Ray and Kris finished the dishes.
"Hey, Kris. I have a question."
"What's that?"
"Would you like to train with us today?"
"Really? That would be great. I haven't bladed in such a long time. Silver Phoenix would really like the practice."
"Cool. Follow me."
Minutes later, Ray and Kris arrived at Bakuten Park. Kai was instructing the others while they are running laps.
"Pick up the pace, guys! Max, quit eating candy while you're eating. Good job, Hilary, keep it up!" Kai called out.
"Hey, Kai! Sorry we're late." Ray called out.
Kai looked to his right and saw Ray and Kris.
"No problem, Ray! Now, go ahead and take some laps."
"Okay."
"Can I run a few laps too?" Kris asked.
"If you insist." Kai answered.
"Thank you!"
Ray and Kris ran to the track and began running. Surprisingly, Kris was already way ahead of the others!
'Amazing! I never saw anyone that fast before!' Kai thought in amazement.
1 hour later, everyone was taking a 5 minute break. But Kris was doing sit-ups, push-ups and was practicing launching her beyblade.
Kai walked towards her and saw that she was doing sit-ups.
"You can stop now, Kris. You can take a break." Kai told her.
"No thanks. I want to continue exercising until I'm tired out and I'm not tired out."
"Hn. You never give up, do you?"
"Nope."
Kai smirked at Kris.
"I'll tell you what, you can continue exercising until you tire out, okay?"
Kris stopped doing sit-ups and smiled at Kai.
"Thanks, Kai."
Soon, she kissed Kai on the cheek and started running laps.
Kai put his hand on where she kissed him and blushed.
