Chapter 3 meeting Kai's mother

Tyson Granger walked to his school. He looked forward to get there, because outside, he knew that Kai would be waiting. He always did. Tyson smiled and waved to Kai who was leaning on a pillar, most students walk far away from Kai, most of them looking some what scared at him. Tyson however, walked straight up to him, just like every other morning for the past month.

"Morning Kai," Tyson greeted. "You know what?" Kai shook his head slightly. "My birthday is in a month." Kai looked at Tyson, 'just like Takao' he thought.

"You don't seem overly happy bout it," he said instead.

"Meh," Tyson shrugged. "I don't get birthday presents or cakes…" Tyson trailed of; a memory took place in his mind. It was the same that he had dreamt several times. He was in a big kitchen, his mother, a midnight blue haired woman, was making him a birthday cake, only it said Takao 5 years instead of Tyson. Tyson shook his head.

"I never have gotten anything… I think." He finished, not really knowing what to say. Kai nodded and then turned to walk inside, Tyson followed him happily.

"Wanna visit my place today?" Kai said, actually startling Tyson a bit. They had been friends for about a month now but neither of them had visited the others home. Tyson nodded happily, his heart pounding faster, he longed for this school day to end.

Ancient history and spirits again, the lesson was once again fascinating. They where told how the ancient elemental spirits had taken one form each. The spirit of air took the form as the master dragon, Dragoon. The spirit of fire took the form as the lady phoenix, Dranzer. The spirit of earth took the form as the wild cat, Drigger. And last, the spirit of water took the form as Draciel, the turtle. These spirits bonded with one human every hundred year, always the same human, only its reincarnation, always from the same family, the Kinomiya, the Hiwatari, the Kon and the Mizuhara families to be exact. These humans were the tools of balance; they existed to make sure that chaos did not take over. If one of them, it didn't matter which one, but if one of them did not show up and bonded with his/hers spirit at their 16th birthday, then the balance would be broken and things would start to go wrong and chaos would destroy the world and reality they live in. It was possible for them to dream about their previous lives, and the humans always seemed to fall in love with each other, fire with air and earth with water. (At that point everyone had turned to Max and Rei who had turned completely red until a growl from Kai made everyone turn back to the teacher.)

The lesson ended, on the way out, Tyson asked Kai:

"Have you ever dreamt of a previous life?" Kai nodded slightly and said:

"Yes I have… I've always been a male, though… Takao have been female several times." Tyson smiled and put his hand comforting on Kai's shoulder. He didn't know what else to do.

Lunch again; Tyson looked at the now eight pills in the bag.

"Why did Miranda start to give you more pills?" Max asked Tyson.

"I don't know…" Tyson answered before throwing the pills out. Tyson didn't know, because he hadn't heard the conversation that had taken place after he had gotten upstairs that day he asked Miranda if she'd ever had pink hair.

Flashback

Miranda entered the kitchen as Tyson had gone upstairs. She looked at her husband who was sitting at the table reading the newspaper. She sat down on the other side of the table and said:

"I think he's starting to remember." Her husband had looked confused and almost scared at her before he put down the newspaper.

"Are you sure?" he asked nervously. Miranda nodded and James swore.

"He asked me if I've ever had pink hair… and you know I wore that pink wig when we kidnapped him." James nodded slightly at what his wife were saying.

"We need to contact Boris and he can tell us what to do. The whole plan was to get Tyson to believe we were his parents so that Biovolt could get his abilities… and it's obvious that it's failing." Miranda nodded.

"How did we end up in this mess? I wish that we had known before we agreed to do this." James nodded and said with a growl:

"I hate Voltaire… he started the entire Biovolt company just because he wasn't the Hiwatari who was chosen to hold the sacred Dranzer, not even the one who was supposed to help the one who was destined to do so… his daughter got that role. I have to say that that is messed up." Miranda nodded, and then she said:

"I'll call Boris then." She went over to the phone and dialled a number. As a dark voice answered she told the man in the other end what was going on.

"Raise his amount of pills," came the answer.

End Flashback

Tyson sighed and shrugged before throwing the pills out. Nothing he could do about it anyways.

When Tyson and Kai got home to Kai's dojo, Tyson stopped outside and stared at it. It reminded him of something, something from long ago. After staring at the dojo for awhile, Tyson followed Kai inside. They took of their shoes when the heard a soft purring. Tyson looked forward; a grey cat was sitting there glancing at them with her yellow eyes. Kai put his hand warningly on Tyson's shoulder.

"That's Micah, she hardly likes anyone she doesn't already know… she's quite people shy," he said. Tyson nodded and they walked past the cat and sat down in the Hiwatari family's living room couch. Micah had followed them; she jumped up in the couched and sniffed at Tyson who sat still, not wanting to frighten her.

"What is she doing?" He asked nervously. Kai only shrugged, and when Micah laid down in Tyson's lap purring, his eyes nearly popped out of his head.

"I don't think I've ever seen Micah that friendly…" Kai was obviously startled, which looked rather funny since Kai hardly ever showed any emotions… at all.

"Kai? Honey, are you home?" Kai looked up from the cat and saw his mother enter the living room. She noticed Tyson; stopped and stared at the young bluenett who hadn't noticed her yet. Then Tyson looked up and saw the woman with light blue hair and red eyes. She had been in his dream… in that dream where he had been a little boy, playing with someone who resemblance Kai.

"Hi," Narumi said. "Who's this Kai?" she said with a sunny smile. Kai looked at his mother, shot her a small glare and said:

"Mom, this is Tyson Granger… he's a friend of mine." Tyson smiled towards the middle aged woman who smiled back and said:

"Nice to meet you Tyson… will you be staying for dinner? I would love to get to know my son's friends more than just the name." Tyson looked at Kai who simply nodded.

"If there's no trouble…" Tyson hoped to god that he would be allowed to stay and have dinner at Kai's. He was very sick and tired of having dinner alone in his room.

"Of course not, I'll be happy to have you over for dinner. Do you wan to call your mother?" Tyson's smile faltered slightly before he said:

"I doubt she'd care… she hates me." Narumi looked shocked at the young man sitting in front of her with Micah still putting in his lap.

"I… no… you mother probably don't hate you?" She laughed nervously. "Why would she do that?" She asked. Tyson sighed and said:

"Well… I was going to tell Kai anyways… she hardly sees me at all during the day… once I get home, she gives me a plate with my dinner and then she tells me if there's fruit or not and then she walks into her and James bedroom and I have dinner alone in my room…" Narumi looked really shocked at that.

"Even on Saturdays and Sundays?" Tyson sighed.

"Those days are worse… I have to cook for myself; neither of my so called parents is at home... I'm not sure where they are." Narumi got tears in her eyes; hugged Tyson who looked at Kai with big eyes, Kai was looking back, obviously shaken by what Tyson just said. Micah had jumped out of Tyson's lap when Narumi started to hug him.

"You're welcome over everyday," she said. She noticed how Tyson seemed a bit shaken by her closeness. "Is something wrong?" Before Tyson even had the chance to answer, she said: "Don't tell me… they hardly hug you either." Tyson only nodded, Narumi was shockingly good at reading people. Narumi seemed enraged by this, but she had left the house before Tyson even had had the chance to say anything else. Tyson turned to Kai who said:

"You've had hell haven't you?" Tyson shrugged and said:

"There are less fortunate kids… those who get beaten or are starving… I don't want to complain." Kai sighed, shook his head and said:

"Tyson… you have to complain sometimes." Tyson only shrugged again and the two turn3ed on the TV, talking lightly about meaningless things. After awhile, they were getting sleepy, at this moment, Kai was trying to explain the rules of soccer for Tyson… but since Tyson had never watched a football game before (which was on the TV) and the fact that Kai didn't really care for sports made the whole effort go down the drain. They heard Narumi return and walk into the kitchen, and then, the two fell asleep, Tyson with his head leaning on Kai's shoulder and Kai with his head leaning on Tyson's. The dream they had then, was going to play a lot of part in their lives later… not that they knew it at the moment.
