Brt: An update!
---Takao's POV---
I hear my school bag fall to the ground, as my gramps tells me about the phone call, but I don't let him finish as I run towards the door and put on my shoes and leave. As I exit the dojo, I collide with a kid the same size as me, as I help him up I mumble a quick 'sorry' and leave, without hearing what he was about to say. My mind was filled with thoughts about my friend. Maybe I should've let gramps finish. Damn, first Rick and now this!
---Normal POV---
As Takao entered the hospital, one of the nurses called to him. "Hey young man! Not running in the hospital!"
Damn these stupid rules! Takao thought as he slowed down, "Sorry about that." He said as he made his way towards his friend's room, and without knocking he opened the door and stepped in. "Zeo!" he called, and he saw his friend seated on the bed, the doctor was besides him. And he looked healthier than any normal person.
"Oh, hi Takao, what are you doing here?" the teen ask, offering him a warm smile. Takao was loss for words.
"Um, well, I just came to visit you, that's all." He explained, and the teen on the bed tilted his head to one side.
"Why? I told your grandfather to tell you that I was getting release today, so it would've been a waste of time. Didn't he tell you that?" Zeo said, and Takao sweat-dropped.
"Yes he did, and I just wanted to come and see you, so we could go somewhere. I mean been stuck in the hospital for a week isn't fun at all." He said shrugging.
"You're right on that one… I heard that they had transferred you to another school, it's that right?" he asked, and Takao merely nodded. "I see," he turned to stare at the doctor, "Well, my father has already taken care of the bill and forms, so I'm leaving." He said and the doctor smile.
"That's good, now take care." The doctor said, and the two teens left. As they walked outside, a limousine was park in front of the hospital, and Zeo walked towards it. He gave his stuff to the driver, and told him that he was going to his friend's house.
"What do we do?" he asked Takao, as they saw the limo drive away.
"Let's go to my house to play video games, I also want to talk to you." he said in a serious tone.
"…Talk about what?" Zeo asked.
"-Sigh- I saw Carlos again." With that, the two teens headed towards the dojo.
---Scene change, time change, Tala and Kai in English class---
The red-head and the dual-haired teen sat bored in their English class, as their teacher talked about the great authors and their work. In truth, they weren't even paying attention to her, nor did they care. As Kai sat there bored, looking at the clock and seeing as how slowly it change its numbers. Tala was just staring out the window, trying to figure out exactly when they were about to use this whole information.
"Now, as I was saying," the teacher begun, snapping them out of their daydreaming, "this project is due by the end of the week, and I expect for all of you to make a decent grade." She finished as the bell rang, and all the students headed out the door.
"Hey Kai?" a blond teen approach the dual-haired teen, it was Max.
"…Yes?" he asked, and Tala stared at them with little interest.
"I was wondering if you sat with Kenny at lunch." he said, and Kai nodded, "Um, can you tell him that I can't be there today. I need to go to the library." He explained, and Kai nodded.
"Yeah, I can tell him that." Max thanked him and left. The red-head stood from his seat, following Kai towards the cafeteria.
"Who was that?" he asked, faking interest in the paper the teacher had handed them.
"His name is Max Mizuhara, he's from New York." He said as he moved in line.
"That's not what I meant, how do you know him?" Tala said, as he took a slice of pizza and a juice box. Kai doing the same, but grabbing a water-bottle instead.
"Kenny was the one to show him around, and by the looks of it they became friends." They sat down and started eating, after a few moments, Kenny arrived.
"Hey, guys." He greeted.
"Max said that he was going to the library." Kai inform him, and Kenny nodded.
"OK, then I'll go there."
"Aren't you eating?" Tala asked him.
"Nah, I promised Max that I would help him catch up in his classes, I'll see you later." And with that he left. The other two just waved goodbye.
"What about the other transfer?" the red-head ask after a minute, as he shoved the paper into his packet.
"What did the paper said?"
"Seems like we have to choose a dead guy to write their achievements down, and you haven't say anything about the other transfer." Kai finished his pizza, ad drank his water.
"What is there to talk about? His name is Ray Kon, he was shown by Salima. Meaning, that we aren't probably going to see him around that much." He said, as he stood to throw away his trash and walking out of the cafeteria.
"Where are you going? We still have fifteen minutes till lunch is over." Tala said, walking besides his friend.
"Lets just go outside for a change." He said, and as they walked pass a group of girls they were able to hear some of their conversation.
"So, Salima are you going to ask him out?" a girl with long blue hair tied in a pony-tail asked the red-head.
"I don't know Mariam, I mean I have known him for just a day, but Ray is hot." She said to the group of friends, who started giggling. Kai rolled his eyes, and they kept on walking.
"See what I mean?" Kai asked Tala, and he nodded. They soon found a table under a tree and the two sat sown in silence, as they waited for the bell to ring.
---Scene change, time change, Ray walking in the halls---
As the Chinese teen walked down the hall, he could've sworn that he had passed that room already. Damn, I'm lost, he thought, as he run a hand trough his hair, this wouldn't have happen if Salima had just shown me the inside of the damn school, instead of the cool places. He sighed, seeing no point in trying to blame the girl, knowing full well that it was her fault. As he rounded a corner, he bumped into someone.
"Oh Ray!" Salima greeted him, "Where are you heading?" she asked him.
"Well, I'm trying to find the library." He told her and the girl blush with embarrassment seeing her mistake.
"I'm so sorry!" she said, and Ray put a hand on her shoulder.
"It's OK, now can you tell me where it is?" he asked her, and Salima nodded. In turns out that he was close, but was taking a wrong turn, "Thanks." He told her and she smiled.
"…But aren't you going to eat?" she asked him, and he shook his head.
"No, I have a project due." He said, and Salima blinked confuse at him.
"A project, but you just transfer here!" she exclaimed, and Ray shrugged.
"I know, but the teacher was clear about it, either I don't do this and I fail for the first semester, or just do it without complains." He said as he opened the door and entered.
"Well, I have to go; I have to meet some friends at the cafeteria." She waved and left. Ray started to look trough the bookshelves when he found a book with the title The Greatest Achievements of Our Time. He shrugged; maybe that book could help him with his Government project. As he reached for the book and as he pulled it out the book wouldn't move. He glared at it, and pulled harder, but still nothing, giving up, he let it go and the book felled the opposite direction and someone curse from behind the bookshelf. (1).
"Hey Max, are you OK?" he heard someone asked someone, he went and looked and found a blond on the floor, a brunette was besides him. The book that he was trying to get was lying on the blonds' lap, he sweat-dropped. So that's why the book wouldn't move!
"I didn't know that coming to a library would be dangerous." The blond said, rubbing his head. As Ray saw them, he saw that the blond had bandages around his wrist. Weird.
"Hey, that would've been my fault." Ray said, as he moved to help the blond.
"It was nothing." He said, as he put the book back in his place.
"You're Ray, the transfer student from China right?" Kenny asked as he grabbed the blonds' bag, and handed it to him.
"Yeah, that's right."
"Oh, I remember now! We met before, I'm Max Mizuhara!" the blond introduce himself outreaching his hand, Ray took it and they shook hands.
"I'm Ray Kon, sorry but I don't usually remember people's names."
"Nah, it's OK." Max said, and they stay staring at each other, neither saying anything.
"Um, is there something on my face?" Ray finally said, and Max shook his head.
"Um, no is just that I had never seen anyone with golden eyes." Max explained, a little embarrass that he was caught staring.
"That's OK, I get that a lot." Ray said shrugging. Kenny cleared his throat.
"Come on Max, you still need to get other books." He said, walking away, leaving no choice for Max but to follow him.
"I gotta go, see ya Ray!" he called and Ray waved. As he saw them walk away, he saw the blond put his hands behind his head, and the sleeves of his uniform fall down, and he saw that both his wrist had bandages around them.
"I wonder what happen." He said to himself as he heard the bell ringing. Damn, I didn't get any books; I guess I can always go to the local library. He thought as he stopped, that is if I knew where it was, I guess I can ask uncle about it. He thought as he entered his classroom.
---Scene change, time change, Tala and Kai still outside---
"Look who we found yet again on our turf." Kai groan at the sound of the voice.
Not them again! He thought as he open his eyes, and saw that Carlos and his gang were around them, besides him, he saw Tala clench his fist. He knew that Tala was getting over his limits, but he couldn't blame him, he himself felt like punching Carlos out.
"What the hell do you want now?" he asked, and Carlos smirked.
"Nothing really, just wanted to tell you that you should leave."
"Why, because you tell us?" Tala said, before Kai could stop him. He saw Carlos glared at Tala, and he walked towards him, grabbing him by the collar. He also saw that Carlos was about to hit Tala, but Tala already knew that.
Just like always. He thought, but before any of the two could land a punch, a small rock hit the raven-haired teen on the head. Carlos quickly turned toward Kai, and the teen shrugged. "Don't look at me, I didn't do it."
"Hey Carlos!" they hear someone yell, and they turned to stare at Takao. Kai rolled his eyes.
Showoff. He thought, but did a double take as he saw that the midnight haired teen was standing on the other side of the fence, and he was wearing gray pants with a red jacket over a yellow shirt, he also had a blue and red hat on. What the hell?
"Fuck, is you again, what the hell do you want?" Carlos said, as he let Tala free.
"It's so nice of you to remember me." Takao said sarcastically. "What's so wrong in saying hi to old friends?" he asked, and Carlos just stared at him.
"What the fuck do you mean?"
"I didn't know you were so slow, Carlos." A new voice said, and a teen with blue-green hair appear to stand close to Takao.
"…It's you…" Carlos finally said, as he glared at the two teens.
"Good, you remember." Takao said, but their conversation was cut short as the bell rang. "We have to go, but tell Rick that this isn't over yet." Takao inform him, and he and the other teen left, before anyone could spot them.
"Boss, what do we do?" one of the members of the gang ask, they seemed to have forgotten about Tala and Kai, not that they were complaining about it.
"Lets wait, and then we'll tell Rick, come on lets go." He said, and they left. Tala turned to look at Kai.
"I wonder what was that all about." He said.
"I don't care, and I knew he was nothing but trouble." Kai responded, referring to Takao, as they walked towards their next class. Tala chose to drop it.
---Scene change, time change, Carlos---
"I can't believe that I didn't recognize him!" Carlos yelled angrily, as he kicked a crate in the old warehouse. "I had him close, and I didn't know it was that bastard!"
"Will you shut up?" Rick yelled at him, "now it doesn't matter, but I want you to keep an eye on both of them." He said, as he put an ice bag over his eye. Carlos turned to stare at him.
"You mean Kinomiya, and Zagart?" he asked, and Rick shook his head.
"No, I can take care of Zagart, who I mean is Kinomiya, and the new bastard he now hangs with." The raven-haired teen stared at him confuse.
"…Who?"
"…Kai Hiwatari." He stated, and Carlos smirked, things had suddenly turned more interesting.
