MrsKaiHiwatari: LOL! Don't worry, I like Tala too! But I don't plan for him to enter this fic, sadly. Sorry!
Kausi: Oh bugga. That's a real bummer. I have a friend named Mandy, who hurt her ankle while dancing last year. She still needs to take care of it now! Is that a good thing? Thank you. That spooky bit was actually a last minute thing! Pretty good, huh? No, it's not the California weather! Guess it could be both! I love G-revolution! But the fricken TV channel just had to get rid of it! Say, I have a question to ask you. Do you have a pen pal in Australia named Amanda, nicknamed Mandy?
Moonlit Sea: Thanks! What's going to happen? The beginning of a great adventure! No, it doesn't hurt to ask! Thank you! Is it really that good?
SGCred: LOL! Glad to see that you like it! Yes, creepy. Yes, Voltaire does have another grandson besides Kai. What will happen?

Chapter Eleven: Intruder
Normal P.O.V
(Aya) awoke to the sound of birds chirping. She lifted her head up and looked at Kai's sleeping face. She was confused for a moment, but then she remembered what happened last night.
'I must've fallen asleep. And Kai didn't have the heart to wake me. Aw! How sweet of him!' (Aya) thought.
(Aya) tried to get up, but felt a small tugging motion on her back. At that moment, she realized that Kai's arms were around her, his hands clasped together, resting on the small of her back. (Aya) smiled and traced the light mark left from the wound on his chest. Kai's mouth twitched in his sleep. His eyes flickered open. He groaned as he rubbed the sleep out of his eyes. (Aya) chuckled.
"Good morning."
Kai blinked up at her.
"Morning."
(Aya) rested her head on Kai's chest. He looked down at her and raised an eyebrow.
"What are you doing?" he asked her.
"Listening to your heartbeat." (Aya) replied.
She concentrated on the pounding sound. Ba dump! Ba dump! Ba dump!
"It's beating pretty fast." She commented.
"Hm. Thanks for the analysis."
"You're welcome."
"Now can you get off me?"
"When you let go of me, I can."
"Oh."
Kai released his hands from (Aya's) waist. She got up and held out her hand for Kai. He hesitated, then took it, hauling himself up. (Aya) let his hand go once he was standing.
"I'm gonna have a shower first, like I always do, then I'll make breakfast, ok?"
Kai nodded in response. As (Aya) walked up the stairs, Kai got the feeling someone was watching. He turned to look out the window, but no one was there. His eyebrows narrowed and he frowned.
'I was so sure that someone was there.' He thought to himself.
As (Aya) showered, she was deep in thought.
'I wonder why Kai's heart was beating so fast.' She pondered.
'It kinda reminds me of last night.'
Flashback
(Aya) wiped away the grain of rice, Kai's intense gaze never leaving hers.
End Flashback
'The way he stared at me last night made my heart pound so fast, I thought it was gonna explode.'
/Maybe it was/
/Hey Holocaust, what's up/
/I feel uneasy/
/Why/
/I can feel something dark close by/
/It might have something to do with that phone prank freak/
/Well, if it is, don't let your guard down for a minute. This presence, as evil as it feels, it's very powerful/
/Thanks Holocaust. I'll remember that/
(Aya) felt Holocaust leave her mind.
Meanwhile, in Kai's room, he's getting dressed. As he goes to pick up Dranzer, he notices a soft, red flashing glow.
'Why is Dranzer acting so strangely all of a sudden?' Kai wonders.
"Hm, something's not right." Kai mutters to himself.
Back in (Aya's) room……………………
Today (Aya) decided to wear a black Sista logo t-shirt, navy-blue jeans, red sneakers and black leather wrist cuffs with holes punched into them with a red matching belt. She got her hair and twisted it up, securing it at the back of her head with a purple snappy clip. (Aya) quickly ran some red hair mascara through her bangs to finish the look. She grabbed Holocaust and her launcher and ran downstairs, ready to make breakfast.
Kai wasn't there, which surprised (Aya), as every time she walked into the kitchen for breakfast, he was already there. She shrugged it off and started to make pancakes. She turned from the stove as Kai walked into the room.
"Hi."
There was no reply.
(Aya) shrugged and went back to making pancakes. When she was done, she put some in front of Kai. No thank you, no nothing. (Aya) raised an eyebrow as she sat in her chair and begun to devour her own pancakes.
'Something's up with him.' She thought to herself.
/Ah, don't worry about it. He'll come around/
/Ok Holocaust/
/What? A guy can space out sometimes/
/I know that. It's just that him being like this is, well, kinda weird to me/
/Right. This is what he was like on day one, remember/
/Yeah, that day won't ever be forgotten/
(Aya) finished off her pancakes and put her plate, fork, frying pan and lifter into the dishwasher.
"I'll be in the backyard if you need me."
Again, (Aya) got no reply. She shook her head and walked out the laundry. She opened the door that guarded the stairs to the backyard. As (Aya) walked towards the beydish, she got the feeling that she was being watched. She turned around and found that she was alone.
"Hm. Funny." She murmured.
(Aya) reached the beydish. As she was about to launch Holocaust into the dish, a hooded, cloaked figure jumped down from a tree.
(A/N: Alas! The moment you've all been waiting for! Sorry, forgive me! I couldn't help myself!)
For a brief moment, (Aya) observed them. The person was about as tall as Kai. They wore a black cloak that hid their feet, as well as their face, seeing that it was hooded. The clasp at their neck was identical to Kai's belt buckle.
(A/N: First series.)
"Who are you?"
The person scoffed. "Don't you remember me?"
(Aya) stiffened. That voice. It was him.
"Oh. So you finally decided to come out and show yourself."
"Hm. I got tired of waiting. I've been watching you ever since Hiwatari came."
"How do you know Kai?"
"That's not of your concern."
"How did you know what my number is and where I live?"
"My master has his ways."
"Oh, so you're an underdog scumbag with nothing to do except stalk teenage girls."
A growl escaped the hooded figure.
"How dare you insult me."
"You think that's the worst of it? Well, you got another thing coming, Stalker Boy."
"Hm. Enough with the chit-chat. I came here to challenge you to a battle."
(Aya) readied her blade.
"You're on. Only on one condition."
"What"
"I win, I get your name, Stalker Boy."
The figure shrugged.
"Fine with me. I don't plan to lose."
"Neither do I."
"3, 2, 1, Let it rip!"
"Spin Holocaust!"
"Go, Killi!"
(A/N: Pronounced Kill-lie.)
The blades met in the centre, smashing against each other.
'Wow! This guy's powerful! I can feel it. There's a dark power, an evil presence. Holocaust was right. I'll have to be careful.' (Aya) thought.
"Killi, attack!"
The guy's blade increased its speed, heading straight towards Holocaust. Holocaust dodged the attack, barely. A tiny smirk appeared on (Aya's) mouth. Her bond with Holocaust was so strong, sometimes they could read each others minds in battle.
Meanwhile, Kai was sitting on his bed, arms crossed, eyes closed, leaning against the wall, deep in thought. His eyes snapped open when he heard the distant sound of shouting. Kai cocked his head to the right. And if he concentrated even harder he could hear…………..a beyblade. Two in fact. Kai got off his bed and walked over to the window. When he looked out he saw (Aya) battling a cloaked figure.
'I wonder who she's battling?' Kai pondered to himself.
Kai walked onto the balcony that surrounded the third floor and stopped when he had the beydish in good view. He couldn't keep his mahogany eyes off the mysterious blader. He felt drawn to them somehow. Almost as if they were connected in some way.
'That's just crazy. I don't even know who they are.'
/You just might/
/What are you talking about Dranzer/
/Think about it. What did that mystery phone caller want to do/
Kai's eyes widened.
"No." he whispered in a hushed breath.
/Yes. And between you and me, your friend's in a little trouble/
Suddenly, Kai saw (Aya) fall onto her hands and knees. He stood there watching, unsure of what to do. It was like there were two completely different people in his head, telling him what to do at the same time.
'What are you waiting for? Go and help her!' his conscience nagged; the one that was acting on his new, kinder half.
'Why?' he replied, his colder half starting to return.
'Because if it weren't for her, you wouldn't be alive.'
'I'm still deciding whether or not I'm grateful.'
'Selfish bastard. Help her!'
'When pigs fly.'
'Stupid damned Abbey voice! Get the hell out of my head!'
'(Aya's) a big girl. She can look after herself.'
'And she needs help. Help her!'
'When pigs fly.'
'The pigs have flown Hiwatari. Help her! NOW!'
Kai growled. That kinder conscience of his was making his head pound.
"Fine. Damn conscience." Kai muttered.
Kai jumped off the balcony and landed in crouching position. Then he got back up and sprinted towards the battle.
Meanwhile, (Aya) was still on her hands and knees, shaking, trying to stand. This blader was incredibly strong. Like nothing she had faced before.
Underneath the hood, a crazy dangerous smirk took place on the person's face. Their pupils had shrunk to pinpoints, making their eyes look possessed. They had gone slightly out of control.
"Now, time to finish you off, Killi, attack her!"
The black blade sped with an alarming rate, looking like a spinning black Frisbee. Then it spun out of the dish, going for her head. (Aya) turned her head to the side and squeezed her eyes shut, waiting for the impact.
Suddenly, a royal blue blade spun out of no where, knocking the black blade back behind its owner. (Aya) heard this noise and opened her eyes in surprise. She had been expecting a brutal blow in the face, but instead, Kai showed up out of no where, saving her. (Aya) looked up at the furious Russian by her side.
"Kai?"
Kai looked down at (Aya). Her heart skipped a beat.
"Are you ok?"
She managed a stiff nod. Kai held out his hand. (Aya) took it, hauling herself off the ground. Kai turned to look at the cloaked blader.
"Who are you?" he demanded.
An evil chuckle emerged from the hood. "Aw Kai, don't you remember me?"
Kai felt a nagging in the back of his mind, but chose to ignore it.
"Fortunately, I don't. Now who are you?"
"You'll find out soon enough."
The blader picked up their blade and scrambled up a tree, jumping over the fence.
"Creep." (Aya) muttered.
She slipped down to the bottom of the beydish to retrieve her beyblade then climbed out. As she walked towards Kai, her head began to spin.
"Whoa." (Aya) murmured.
Before she knew what was happening, (Aya) blacked out and fell to the ground. She landed on her knees, so Kai grabbed her shoulders to prevent her from hitting her head.
"(Aya)?"
There was no reply. Kai sighed.
'Why does this sort of thing always happen when I'm around?' he asked himself as he adjusted his hold on (Aya) and carried her back into the house.
When (Aya) came back around, she found herself on the couch. Frowning, she tried to remember how she got there. Then she remembered the intense battle with the cloaked figure, being brang down onto her knees, nearly receiving a hard blow to the face, only to be rescued by Kai. Kai.
"Kai was the last person I remember seeing." (Aya) murmured to herself.
'He must've carried me into the house.' (Aya) thought.
Slowly, she sat up and pushed the blanket off her figure.
"K-Kai?" (Aya) called out nervously, looking around the room.
(Aya) turned around swiftly as she heard a creaking noise. (Aya) saw that the dining room door was open by a fraction. What intrigued (Aya) was the dark shadow she saw lurking around the dark, small gap in the door.
"Kai?" (Aya) called out again, a hint of fear showing in her voice.
(Aya) walked over to the door and pushed it open. (Aya) stepped into the room, her footsteps echoing. It was very dark. The only light in the room glowed dimly from underneath the closed curtains.
"Kai, are you in here?" (Aya) asked, stepping forward.
Suddenly, the dark, cloaked figure jumps out of nowhere. (Aya's) (hazel) eyes widen as she opens her mouth to scream. But the figure's hand shoots out, roughly grabbing (Aya's) tender throat, stopping her from emitting noise and ability to breathe. She stares at the black opening hiding the person's face with fear. He seemed to enjoy killing her even more than pranking her with those stupid phone calls. Her body starts to twitch violently. It would be over soon. Her vision was growing blurry.
"(Aya)! (Aya), wake up!"
Kai shook the girls' body, trying to wake her away from her dark dreams. (Aya) gasped and bolted upright, her body shaking from the terrifying images. She turned to face Kai. His eyes darted over her face, worry and concern clouding his features. (Aya) couldn't hold it any longer. She burst into tears. Kai pulled (Aya) close into a comforting hug.
"Shh, shh. (Aya), it's ok, it was only a dream." Kai spoke soothingly, stroking (Aya's) hair with one hand, gentling rubbing her back with the other.
"N-no Kai, i-it wasn't a-a dream! I-it was r-real! H-h-he was real!" (Aya) sobbed into Kai's shoulder.
"(Aya)."
"He kn-knows where I live! H-he's r-really watching my every m-move! I-I'm so scared K-Kai! What i-if he br-breaks into the house? W-when I'm by myself. W-who knows what h-he would do!" (Aya) wailed, letting all of her fearful thoughts out.
"(Aya), look at me and listen carefully." Kai requested calmly, cupping (Aya's) face in both hands, wiping away the tears running down her cheeks.
"I'm here. Right here with you. And I already told you that I refuse to let that creep hurt you."
"I know Kai. I just don't wanna be alone now. I'm scared."
"Anyone would be. But I'm here, you're not alone, and I'll never let you be unless you need to be, ok?"
(Aya) nodded in response. Kai pressed his lips to (Aya's) forehead in a soft kiss.
"Good, now that's settled. I'm gonna lock every window and door in the house, ok?"
(Aya) nodded. "Please hurry." She said softly.
Kai nodded, stood up and begun to lock all the windows and doors. (Aya) hugged her legs close to her chest and buried her face into her knees. When Kai came back downstairs, after checking that all was safe and secure, he found (Aya) in that same position. He frowned.
'The poor girl is scared to death.' He thought.
Kai's blood boiled as he thought of the one caused the chaos.
'I swear to you, you evil, ratty, sleazy, dirty scumbag, for doing this, you shall pay!' Kai vowed to himself.
Kai walked over to the couch and sat next to (Aya). He touched her shoulder, making her jump in surprise.
"Sorry." Kai said quietly.
(Aya) relaxed when she saw the familiar face.
"It's ok Kai."
Kai said nothing; he just pulled (Aya) close in a protective hug and lied down on the couch. (Aya) rested her head on Kai's shoulder and wrapped her arms around Kai's waist. She soon fell asleep, resting in the safety of Kai's arms. Kai stroked (Aya's) hair, smiling down affectionately at her.
"Sweet dreams, (Aya). I won't let him haunt you anymore. I promise."
Aw! Well, how was that? Should be enough dose of Kai/(Aya) sweetness until I write the next chapter. So, what you think? Any questions? Theories? They're all welcome! Please review! Thank you!
