Chapter 7:

At the China tournament:

" So when are we playing our first match?" Ray asked and looked at the schedule. " Yeah when?" Tyson asked. He almost started to drool about the fact that he was going to play any time soon. " Well the grand opening will be tonight but I don't see any times or data's about which team is going to play when," Ray said. " They will probably tell us tonight," Max said. " Yeah I guess you are right about that," Ray said and looked at his small friend, " so why don't we go out then?" " You mean make a walk through the city? We have a lot of training to do," Kenny said. " To be honest Kenny, I really do think that all the training will never help Tyson to be as good as I am," Divano said suddenly. " What did you say?" Tyson said and walked up to her. " Come on Tyson. You really think you're as good as I am? Then you really have a lot of training to do. Not just you but also Dragoon. He's rather weak and he can really use a tough training program," Divano said.

" Dragoon is strong enough and he can win any battle I want too," Tyson said and his face became rather red from anger. Divano just smirked. " What ever you say. I'm going into town and do some shopping," she said and walked away. " Puh she's just words...nothing more," Tyson pouted. " You really want to hear this Ty..but she's rather good. If I remember well, she's second at the world ranking list. Guess who's number one," Kenny said and looked at the data on his laptop. " My bet would be Kai," Max said. " But why isn't she participating then?" Ray asked. " I dunno. There has to be a reason though or else Kai wouldn't be around her all the time and look after her," Ray said.

Meanwhile:

Divano walked by a few stores to see if they had any decent baby stuff. Kai had followed her when he noticed that she was already gone. He saw her looking at some things in a stores. Carefully he walked up to her and stopped just a inch behind her. She was way to concentrated to notice him. " Do they have anything you like?" he softly whispered in her ear. " AHH!" Divano said and turned around. Then she noticed that her man was standing behind her. " Why did you do that?" she asked. " Just teasing that's all," he said and smirked. " Please don't do that again," she said softly and looked at some small socks. He took a peak over her head and saw what she was looking at. " Just go in," he said. " But I know what they'll think of me when I go in. I don't like that," she said. " Normally you don't care either so I don't understand why you do now," Kai said. " You're not the one who has gotten pregnant before she wanted to," Divano said, " and people can be really cruel about this. I just don't like that talk they throw at you." " OK I can understand that. But my guess is that they won't do that when I'm around," Kai said and almost pushed her inside. He knew she wanted to take a look. " Just go Div. The stuff won't bite ya," he said and went inside with her.

" Why don't we do some training before the game starts?" Kenny said, " though you all are good bladers, doesn't mean that you don't need to train your skills." " I don't think that Dragoon needs any more training," Tyson said and sighed, " we are way to good to be beaten by any of these amateurs." " I think that we are the amateurs here if you take a look at the other teams. They look way more professional then we are at the moment," Ray said. " That's why we need to train," Kenny said and opened his laptop.

Divano was happy when she would finally have a little rest after the tournament. But it took a week and a half before the tournament was over and she could finally go home again. Kai had noticed that she got rather tired from all the travelling. It took much of her energy. It was one of the last nights of the tournament. He was glad with that. He was getting sick of Tyson and his stupid behaviour. He also wanted that Divano would have some more time to rest and take care of herself. Divano was already lying in her bed. Not asleep, just resting. " You feel ok?" Kai asked her and lay down next to her. " I'm just so tired," she said and yawned. " We'll be going home again in two days. So just keep calm till then," Kai said and caressed her cheek. " Like I was planning on doing something," Divano said and sighed. She never thought that this pregnancy would take that much of her energy. " You better not to," he said and sighed as well.

The finals where between the White Tigers and the Blade Breakers. Tyson had a match against their leader Lee. It became a tie between them. That meant that there had to be one more round. The one who won that game, won the tournament. " I wanna play again. This time I'll win," Tyson said and looked at the other side of the arena. " No," Ray said strictly. They all looked at him. " This will be my battle," Ray said and stood up. " I think it will be the best. Lee and Ray have a fight to fight and they better do that in the arena then outside of it," Divano said. " But I'm sure I can win," Tyson said. " Just for once try to understand that you can win it all," Kai said, " I go with Div. Ray needs to play this one." " But," Tyson muttered. " No buts. Ray you take this one," Kai said. " Come on Ray. I know you can win this one," Divano said and crossed her arms. But Ray was already making his way to the arena.

She knew that Lee and Ray still had an fight going on. Ray had inherited the Driger bitbeast from the city elder. That was Lee's grandfather, so the first one in line to get the bitbeast. But Lee's grandfather had chosen Ray instead of him. That was something Lee was still mad about. He still didn't know why his grandfather had chosen Ray.

" So are you ready to loose the Driger bitbeast Ray?" Lee asked and smirked. " I won't loose Lee. Cause I learned more tricks by travelling then you can learn your whole life in the village," Ray said and aimed Driger. " You'll pay Ray. Mark my words," Lee said and growled. The battle started and soon the two bitbeast arised and attacked each other. Divano looked at the power of the bitbeasts. Dicer was way stronger then the both of them. But Kai wouldn't let her battle during her pregnancy. On one hand she understood that but on the other hand she really wanted to blade and show the other that she was the strongest of them all.

" Come on Driger get him," Ray said. Driger growled and banged against Galeon as hard as he could. It took a few seconds before Galeon knew what had happened. But then he was knocked out of the arena and landed outside. That meant that Ray had won and that he could keep his Driger bitbeast. " Ok Ray. You're the best," Tyson said and ran up to him. Ray looked at his blade and smiled. He was glad that Driger would still be with him. " Ray," Lee suddenly said and looked at him. " Yes?" Ray asked. " You did great Ray. You earn it to be the master of the Driger bitbeast," Lee said and shook his hand. " Thanks," Ray said and laughed, " then we can finally be friends again." " I would like that," Mariah said and smiled at him. " Yeah me too," Ray said and smiled back at her.

" Come Div. We're going," Kai said, took her hand and took her with her to the hotel. Divano slowly walked behind him. Her feet were hurting. She was about four moths pregnant but her body was already hurting. Kai watched her and waited for her. When she was close enough, he wrapped his arm around her and helped her back to the hotel.

Back in the hotel, Divano sat down and took a drink. " We'll go home tomorrow OK?" Kai said and looked at her. " Yeah sure. I'm glad we are," she said and smiled, " I can't stand them any more. Well not for a long time now." " Me neither but that doesn't mean that I won't take care of you. Just like I promised you that I would do," Kai said and gave her a kiss. " And I'm glad you do," she said and smiled, " cause I can't do this thing on my own. I really need you."
