Heyness everyone! Here's chapter 5!

Disclamier: Me no own.

Rei opened his eyes as sunlight streaked through his window and into his eyes.

Rei sat up and stretched his arms yawning cutely. He got out of bed and changed into a white shirt with a gold trim and blue pants.

He walked out of his room and headed towards the kitchen where his mother was.

She turned her head and smiled, "Hey their kitten. Sleep well?" She asked. Rei nodded his head and sat down at the table.

She approached the table with long graceful steps and set down a bowl of steamed rice in front of him. "Thank you." He said picking up his chopstick and eating.

Nagiko smiled started to eat her own. When they were done Rei ran back into his room and grabbed his beyblade then headed to the door. "Bye mom!" He called to her.

"Have fun Rei!" She called back as he shut the door behind him.

Rei ran outside and into the forest ready to train. He had to improve his skills. His father loved teaching him and always congratulated him when he improved.

"Let it rip!" He shouted as he pulled the ripcord with all his might. He blade spun with great speed as it dodged rocks and tree's then collided with a huge boulder but only causing a scratch.

Rei growled slightly in anger and went over to pick up his blade, which stopped spinning.

He was about to launch again but stopped when he felt that he wasn't alone. He turned around and widened his eyes. There before him was a beautiful white tiger with green stripes and golden amour, on its shoulder's head, and chest (guess who).

Rei stared at the tiger awestruck by its beauty, but flinched when it took on step forward.

The white tiger noticed the flinch but continued anyway until it was right in front of him. Rei stared up fearfully at the tiger.

The tiger moved its head forward and nudged his arms gently. Rei shakily raised his hand to its cheek and stroke it gently.

The tiger purred and leaned into the touch that made Rei smiled. Rei moved closer to it when it suddenly laid down. Rei was puzzled and surprised when the tiger pulled him down so he was resting against the silk like fur.

Rei curled against the fur and felt his eyes get heavy. He let out a yawned and snuggled closer.

The tiger started to purr, which soothed Rei. His mother and father used to do that when he was upset.

Rei closed his eyes and started to sleep.

------------------------------------

Nagiko looked at the clock worried. It has been three and a half hours since Rei left. He's never been gone for more than two.

She got up from where she was sitting and left the house. Intending on finding her kitten.

She walked through the wood looking for anything that matched her son. She saw something black at the corner of her eye. She smiles in relief and headed towards him and received the shock of her life when she saw him cuddling and sleeping on a white tiger.

The tiger lifted its head from its paws and looked at the shocked women. It bowed its head then shifted so it took Rei's shirt in its mouth and carried him like a kitten.

The tiger gently put Rei down in front of her and left.

Nagiko watched the tiger leave and bent down to pick him up. Rei shifted in his sleep, "Mama." He said not opening his eyes.

She smiled at him and started home. Hoping that the peace that they attained would last.

-----------------------------------------------

A six-year-old boy along with his mother ran through the night some clouds passing over the moon blocking off some of the light it gave off. Men were chasing him and his mother.

Gunshots could be heard behind them as they continued to run. "Rei! Run faster or you'll be caught!" Nagiko shouted to her son "No I refuse to leave you!" He shouted back it might have been one year since his father's death, but he still remembered what happened like it was yesterday.

'If only I could have done something to help father, but now he's gone, and I blame myself for not helping while I could.' He thought, suddenly one gunshot was heard, the tearing of flesh, and his mother's scream of pain made him stop.

Rei turned around, and was greeted by the site of his mother lying on the ground with blood pooling around her.

"Mother!" Rei's voice echoed through the wood.

Rei ran towards his mother…the only family he had left, tears streamed down his face as he fell to his hands, and knees looking at his mother.

"Mother…" Rei sobbed.

His mother groaned and opened her eyes slightly "Rei…r-run now…" She said weakly, but before he could reply he was yanked violently away from her.

"Hey boss we got'em!" Said the man holding Rei.

Rei struggled against the man's grip desperately trying to go back to his mother, angry that these are the same men that hunted his father a year ago.

Their 'boss' walked over to his mother grabbing her by the hair and pulling her of the ground roughly. Nagiko screamed from the pain, and shut her eyes tightly, then slowly opened her eyes as the pain faded somewhat.

The man laughed at her pain, which made Rei angrier.

"You thought you could escape Nagiko, just like your foolish husband. Now I'll get rid of you, and your demon son." He said to her.

Nagiko's eyes went wide as her breath came in short pants the bullet wound in her chest wasn't making it any easier, she took a look at her son seeing is tear stained cheeks, and eyes.

Nagiko turned her eyes back to her captor, and glared at him "Then if you intend of taking my life than do it, but please spare my son Torn." She said.

Rei's eyes widened "No Mama! Please don't sacrifice yourself for me!" He yelled.

Nagiko gave her son a weak smile "Do not worry Rei I accept my fate, and death as long as you live." She said her eyes filling up with tears.

Torn just sneered at her, than removed a dagger from his belt, its deadly blade reflecting in the moonlight. Rei saw this and started thrashing around managing to free his arm, and elbow the man that was holding him. The man let go of Rei clutching his stomach as Rei bolted for Torn and his Mother.

"Mama!"

Rei rushed as fast as he could to save his mother from Torn…but it was too late.

Torn brought the dagger up and in one swift movement slit her throat. Blood sprayed from her cut hitting Rei.

Rei froze as Torn dropped her, and she landed on the ground with a lifeless 'Thump'.

"Let's go boys." He said turning to walk away "But…boss the boy is still alive." Torn looked at the hooded man "I know we'll let him live. I'll wait till he gets older than I'll kill the last living Kon." He said turning back around and walk away.

Rei stood there looking at his mother's corpse, as it started to Rain, and he heard his Mom cough. Rei gasped when he heard the cough and ran over to her turning her over onto her back and looked at her condition, He knew she wasn't going to make, the bullet wound in her chest, and slit throat wasn't enough to kill her then the blood loss would.

Nagiko coughed again and opened her eyes weakly "…R-Re…i…" She said weakly "I'm hear Mama." Rei said through his tears mixing with the rain.

Nagiko weakly brought her hand up and touched her son's cheek, Rei put his smaller hand atop of his mother's "I-I'm…sor…ry…Re…i…that…I…w-won't…be…a-ab…le…t-to…see…you…g-gr…ow…up…" She said weakly.

Rei's eyes shed more tears "Mama." He said in a whisper "Y-you…kn…ow…t-that…I-I…lo…ve…you…p-ple…ase…take…c-ca…re…of…y-your…self." She said closing her eyes her hand going limp in her son's her last thought were 'Suikotsu we'll finally be together again…let us both watch over…our…son.'

Rei let her hand drop to the ground and stood up his hands clenching into fists, and then slowly walked away, then broke into a run 'They're going to pay for what they did, one day they will pay!' He thought as he continued to run until he couldn't run no more, than everything went black.

-------------------------------------

"Hey are you ok!" Said a male voice.

Rei's eyebrows furrowed together, and slowly opened his eyes and saw a young boy around his age he was a neko-jin! Rei could tell but the fangs and, amber eyes.

Rei slowly sat up and looked at him "Where am I?" He questioned "Your at my house. Grandfather told me that he found you in the woods covered with blood and dirt." Replied the little boy with a smile.

Rei smiled back he liked this boy "My name is Rei Kon, what's yours?" He asked "My names Lee Yin, nice to meet you Rei." Lee replied with another smile.

Lee then grabbed Rei's hand and pulled him out of bed, "Huh? Lee where are you taking me?" He asked.

"I'm going to show you around the village. Since we couldn't find your parents you're going to live here!" He exclaimed. Rei's face for a split-second turned sad as he remember his mother and father's deaths, but it quickly changed into a smile.

Lee dragged him all around the village called white tiger village named after a fierce white tiger named Driger.

"LEE!" Called a voice. Both Rei and Lee turned around to see three kids running towards them.

"Hey guys!" Lee said while Rei blinked confused. "Hey Lee! Who's your friend?" Asked the girl with pink hair.

"Oh! Guys this is Rei, Rei this is Mariah Kevin and Gary." Lee introduced.

"Hi." He greeted. Mariah smiled at him, Kevin jumped on him back like a little monkey and Gary patted his shoulder smiling. They talked for a while discussing different thing, but mostly beyblade.

Suddenly they all turned their heads towards two figures approaching them an old man and a young one.

"Hello there young ones," Greeted the old man. "Hello Master Yin." Said the children except Rei.

"Are you Rei?" He asked and Rei nodded his head. The old man smiled, "Good. Rei you'll be living with this man behind me from now on."

Do I have to Master Yin?" Questioned Rei

"I'm sorry Rei but you can't live by yourself you'll be living with Gal Darklight, for the time being." This Gal Darklight was an average looking man short black hair, and amber eyes, well built body, but Rei could smell that he reeked of liquor, and drugs, but what puzzled Rei the most is that the others couldn't smell it.

Gal grunted at the Rei, and made a gesture for him to follow. Rei took one hesitant step forward, then looked back at Lee and the others, that called themselves the White Tigers after the white tiger bit kept by Lee's grandfather, but all they did was gesture to follow him. 'Hump…not even a day and they already want to get rid of me.' He thought sourly following his new guardian. They walked till they were at the edge of town where hardly anybody went.

As soon as Rei entered the house, he was grabbed by his hair and thrown into the nearest wall, he let out a scream of pain and shock, and crumpled to the floor. Rei had the wind knocked out of him as he struggled to breath and stand up, but when Rei was on his hands and knees he was mercilessly kicked in the ribs, a sickening crack could be heard. Gal had just broke three of Rei's ribs.

Rei was lying on the ground struggling to breath more now than before, and slowly opened his eyes to see that Gal was standing right in front of him. Gal roughly grabbed him by his hair again and brought him to eye level "So what are you boy? You can't be a neko-jin your eyes are too golden." Rei glared at him weakly "Ahhh…I see now boy your not a neko-jin at all you're a tora-youkai." He said with a sickening smile.

Rei looked at him confused 'What's he talking about? What's a tora-youkai?' he thought.

Gal saw the confused look, and his smile turned more evil.

"So you don't know what a tora-youkai is? Well it means tiger-demon, and that my boy is what you are." He said.

Rei's eyes widened he had heard stories about demons about how they kill humans for fun, how they love the sight, and smell of blood, and how they loved to torture humans as well. Rei didn't understand he wasn't like that…was he?

"And that means that you deserve ever lasting pain for what you are." Gal spat at him.

Then he threw Rei across the room, and hit the glass doors of a wine rack. Glass pieces were stuck in his back, some in his legs and arms. Rei was slumped on the ground, but he slowly lifted his head up glaring at Gal his eyes nothing but slits.

"Why are you angry at me I'm just paying you back for all the people that you have or will kill." He said his own eyes turning into slits.

Rei's eyes turned back to normal 'Is he right? Maybe I do deserve this pain. Mama, and Papa were killed trying to protect me. So that man's right I do deserve pain, loneliness, and hated.' He thought.

Gal walked over and grabbed Rei by the collar of the shirt, and walked towards a door opening it to reveal a bedroom with an attached bathroom. He threw Rei onto the bed "This is your room. You will only stay in your room to sleep that's it. I hope you have something to entertain yourself for the whole day." Gal said leaving the room with a mocking laugh shutting the door behind.

Rei painfully got off the bed and headed for the bathroom stumbling the way there. As he enters the bathroom he shuts the door behind him and jumps onto the sink counter to look in the mirror.

Rei opened the mirror for the medical cabinet and grabbed a pair of tweezers, then lifted his wounded arm and started to remove the pieces.

---------------

After an hour of taking out the mirror pieces from his back, legs, and arms as best as he could, He stumbled back into the bedroom, and fell onto the bed 'I deserve this, but to Lee and the others I'll have to be happy in front of them I don't want them to worry about me.' He thought reaching inside his shirt pulling out his beyblade.

Rei's eyes started to fill up with tears, but he refused to let any fall 'They say who are strong can make their own destinies. I will become strong, and I'll do it by myself.' He thought letting sleep overcome him.
