Rating: PG-13 for KaixRei yaoi pairing and Kai's mouth(But we're getting used to that)
Summary: Rei's pretty new to the racing sport and not many of the top racers are accepting him. The driver of the number 53 Beyblade car seems to dislike Rei the most, despite his crew chief's wishes for them to get along. So, when many of the drivers try to take Rei out in races, will Kai help them or will he finally defend the rookie?
Notes: Yeah, when I said I'd update every Cup race I'd forgotten about qualifying. So this is our pole qualifying for the Daytona 500. And, as it turns out, I'll have to do another chapter for the 125 race because that's where the rest of them finish. It think the Dayton 500 is actually for the pole and 2nd place qualifying so we'll do that.
Devlinn Reiko: . I'm glad you liked it. I wasn't sure what people would think of me combining Beyblade with racing but I'm going to do my best to make it so it's not just the characters and the one car that have to do with Beyblade. Thank you for reviewing:)
OH! I think I have an idea. Okay. I'll tell you here and not at the end. What I think is that this is kind of in the future kind of thing. Not flying cars and stuff but it's kind of high-tech. Kind of. Not really. But, anyway, the driver's each have a Beyblade that is kept in the engine during races. The Beyblades all have bit-beasts and their own personality. They can also get sick or injured and what-not. Mad, happy, sad, depressed. Okay? Okay. :) And I don't have to tell you who Kai and Rei's Beyblades/bit-beasts are but I'll think of some for the important drivers. Sadly, Kevin Harvick and Dale Jarret will have to do well this. I like them too much not to make them good. And, besides, Kai and Rei can't always win right? And I hope you all don't mind Dranzer being a she in this. It just seems right for Kai's car. :)
Chapter 2
Kai ran a hand over the hood of the Beyblade car. It was almost time for the pole and 2nd place qualifying for the Daytona 500 and the driver was feeling all that confident. Something about the car bothered him but he couldn't figure out what it was.
"What's up, Kai?" Tyson asked. He could tell that the driver wasn't happy.
"Something's wrong with Dranzer." Kai muttered.
"Is she sick?" Max asked as he moved to Tyson's side.
"No. It's something else. She's not hurt." Kai wished he was allowed to check on his Beyblade but he couldn't.
"Too bad you can't be given a special Beyblade since you sponsor them." Hillary said. Kai, Tyson, and Max glared at her.
"I don't NEED a special Beyblade, girl." Kai growled. "Dranzer's good enough"
"Sorry. I was just saying"
"Go away, Hillary." Max told her, looking annoyed for once.
"Fine!" The girl turned and stormed up.
"Stupid bitch." Kai hissed as they watched her go.
"You better get ready Kai. You're one of the first ones up." Kenny called.
"Alright, Chief." Kai responded.
Kai knew what was wrong with Dranzer as soon as he started on his lap around the track. "Come on, Dranzer. It's not going to happen again. It wasn't even our fault!" Kai assured his bit-beast.
-But what if-
"Dranzer! Kenny made sure that no one touched you. Trust him"
-I do! I do. It just worries me. I don't want to lose us this race again. We've never won this, Kai-
"Don't worry about what we've lost, Dranzer. I don't care if we lose it again. We'll get it some time. Just focus on now"
Dranzer did her best and got them the fastest lap. But there were still nearly half the drivers left and Rei was next.
Rei ran a hand through his bangs. "You know, Drigger...You and I have fought together so many times...But never once did I imagine we'd end up in the racing sport"
Drigger chuckled. -Nor did I, Rei. But it doesn't matter. I enjoy racing-
"Me too. That's why we're here. Let's see if we can beat Kai's time"
-He'll probably be mad.- Drigger said. Rei could feel him smile.
"Maybe. But it'd still be interesting. I just hope the rest of them don't hate me like Kai does"
-He'll get over it-
"I hope"
-We're a tad tight, Rei.- Drigger said as they came around turn two.
"Yeah. We're okay for now though. Even if we don't get this, there's still the top five if we do well in the twin 125s"
-Indeed-
There was nothing to worry about though. Rei beat Kai's score and they took first and second in qualifying.
Rei did his best to ignore the irritated look that Kai was giving him. He had a feeling that Kai wasn't made at him getting pole but at him just being there. -He's got nothing against you. Not really. He just never liked newcomers or other racers. I'm sure he'll get over it though.- Dranzer called to Rei.
Rei smiled. -That's what I told him.- Drigger said, laughing.
Lalala. I wonder if the pole and 2nd place for Daytona qualifying still race in the 125s. I don't remember. I hope so. Should be downstairs watching qualifying right now. o.o I hope Kevin and Jarret get pole or second. They rock. Hopes Jr. Stays back. Don't get me wrong. I have nothing against Jr. I just don't want him doing better than my two favorite drivers...You know what I love? I love how word corrects me when I accidentally type 'bayblade' or ' Drgger' or maybe 'Drnzer' :) That's what I love about Word. You can make it accept all your funny words. XD Anyway...I hope you enjoyed that chapter at least a bit. It was kind of boring for me. Thank you for reviewing Devlinn :) Much appreciated.(You're name's too long, Dev o.o I'll end up calling you Dev or D soon. Wait. XD I just called you Dev) Later! Goes to type a random InuxSessh fanfic in hopes of making it a one-shot.
