Chapter One: Sinking
'That's the third night this week.' A pair of golden cat-like eyes peering from under the covers watched a shadowy figure intently. The cold-hearted leader was up and about again. 'It's 2 in the morning. What could he possibly do so early?'
Quietly slipping out, the blue-haired boy exited the room leaving the neko- jin to his thoughts and curiosity. After a few minutes, the boy's curiosity got the better of him. He sat up and pulled the covers off of his slim figure. Changing out of is pajamas, knowing he wasn't going to get anymore sleep, he grabbed his key and headed out of the room.
Walking slowly, the crimson-eyed beyblader headed out of the hotel they were staying at with a certain neko-jin following him. Sensing another's presence, the phoenix slipped into the safe covers of the darkness and seemed to disappear from the tiger's eyes.
'Where did he go?' Rei searched the streets for his leader, finding no trace of him, not even a scent. 'I have to figure this out.' Determined, Rei continued his search, not having any hints of where the phoenix would be. He didn't know the stoic leader very well, but somehow, he knew he was heading in the right direction.
Meanwhile, Kai walked through the dark alleys knowing he had lost the one following him. He made his way across a deserted street and stopped in the middle. A street lamp was dim in the distance, but not daring to touch him. It was a full moon tonight. A beautiful one, but no one ever really appreciates its beauty. It's only used for those who are lost to look up at for comfort, then forgotten when the morning sun comes.
Kai smiled bitterly knowing that he was just like the others, gazing at the moon looking for an answer. He cursed himself knowing how weak he must look, not that anyone was looking. No one was watching except for one. Shaking his head, Kai looked into the darkness seemingly to engulf him and then to the single light of the street lamp.
The impassive beyblader turned his eyes to where he was heading. To where he escaped to only to be more trapped then before. He was sinking. He knew that, but that never stopped him from returning. It was like a drug, something you know in your mind that you shouldn't have, but at the same time, you need and let desire take over any common sense. It made him feel weak...he was. He told himself each day that he was weak, so over time, he was building a wall. To keep out and to keep in.
'I can't go.' Kai thought trapped in his usual dilemma. 'I can't go there again. I have to stop this. I'm only sinking in deeper.' The phoenix fell to his knees, still in the middle of the street. He punched the ground causing blood to spill out from his knuckles. He always did this sort of thing. Physical pain is so much easier to deal with. That was his reasoning.
'I'm not going.' Kai was telling himself, hoping to convince his body to make him turn back. 'I'm not going to be stuck forever.'
The blue-haired captain forced himself to his feet and headed back from where he came. Sensing something, crimson eyes met a pair of concerned golden ones. Breathless, Rei stood there in the cat-like position. His eyes questioned the other for him.
"Rei, you shouldn't be out here."
"I could say the same thing about you, Kai." Rei noticed the blood trickling from the other boy's hand. "Kai, what happened?!"
Kai looked at his blood-stained knuckles. "Just leave."
"You have to get that bandaged before it becomes infects and I'm not going without you."
The two stayed silent, staring at one another, both relentless in turning away from the other. Finally, Kai decided that this was pointless and he turned his back to the neko-jin. Rei stood there stunned. Kai was one who never wanted to lose, but here he was with his back to the tiger.
"I'm not going back." Kai whispered, mostly talking to himself. Rei's eyes widened as he felt a stab into his heart, not understanding why. "I will return on my own time." Rei let the breath he had been holding out, knowing Kai wouldn't betray him again.
"Kai, can I ask you something?" The phoenix stayed silent. Rei didn't wait for an answer. "Why...?" That was all he said, not sure what he was asking. The tiger looked down, confusing himself, but he still was expecting an answer.
Rei could feel those cold eyes on him, but he didn't dare meet their intent gaze. He felt smaller than before somehow. He didn't understand why. He's always been near Kai, but he didn't actual feel this way before. It almost seemed like fear, but... it wasn't.
"Go back to the hotel before you get sick. We have a match tomorrow and you catching a cold won't do the team any good." Rei sighed expecting an answer like that. Giving up and having his sleep deprivation get to him, he headed back to his room, leaving Kai behind.
"I'm only going to sink in deeper." Kai looked at the street lamp and almost as if on cue, the light went out and the moon and stars were the only lights left. Crimson eyes stared into the full orb in the sky and felt himself sink in deeper.
