Chapter 8:
The trip in the USA:
" Finally I can see my mom again. It has been such a long time," Max said. " Then what are we waiting for?" Tyson said. " She's working in a school here somewhere in the neighbour hood," Max said and looked around. " Is that OK with you?" Tyson asked Kai. Though he knew that Kai wasn't. " We still need to train Tyson. This isn't a school trip you know," the answer came. " And again he spoils all the fun," Tyson said and looked at the bus that suddenly stopped next to him.
" Hey are you coming on board or what?" Ray asked and looked at his surprised team mates. " Are we going somewhere then?" Kenny asked. " Yeah the Beyblade research centre," Ray said and saw that they got into the bus. " Really? That sounds really great," Max said. " Yeah finally a real chance of getting some decent information," Kenny said excited and jumped into the bus. Divano just silently sat down in the bus and waited for it to leave.
She only had two weeks of rest before they had to go on a trip again. This time they went to America. The America tournament was bigger then the one in China. There were new teams there and new challenges. By winning one tournament, Tyson thought again that he could beat everyone. Divano was glad that she hadn't been throwing up that much any more. She felt better and a bit happier. She became quite proud about the fact that she was pregnant. And she was really proud about the fact that Kai was the father. Their were many girls who were jealous at her. But that didn't bother her or Kai. He couldn't care less about that. He was glad that Divano was OK and that she and the baby were doing fine.
" Do we need to travel for a long time?" Tyson asked and looked outside the window. " For an half an hour or so," Ray said and smiled at him. " We'll be there soon," Kenny said and looked at his laptop. " I'm glad we are. I can't stand it to stay in a bus for too long with Tyson," Divano said and lay her head back against the chair.
About 45 minutes later they arrived at the lab. " Hey it looks like a beyblade base to me," Max said. " I'm so curious about all their information," Kenny said. " Don't get to excited. I don't think that they will share much with you," Ray said. " That doesn't matter. As long as I look at how they do their research I would already be happy," Kenny said. Inside the lab, a professor took then on a tour around the building. There was much going on in that building. A lot kids that were training and in other rooms, scientists were busy with their research. Kenny's eyes were flashing from one side to the other. " And here is this room is where we test the weight disk," the scientist said. " This is heaven," Kenny said and drooled on the floor. " Dumb ass," Divano said between two coughs. Max laughed a little and turned his head to the other side. That's when he noticed her.
" MOM!" he yelled and ran up to her. " Max is that really you?" she said and hugged him tightly. It had been half a year since she had seen him. " Mom," he said softly and smiled at her. " And that is one our very best researchers here. Doctor Judy," the scientist said. " She's a researcher. I thought she worked at a school?" Tyson said. " Clearly you aren't smart enough to notice that," a girl suddenly said. " What is that supposed to mean?" Ray asked her. " Oh nothing," she said sarcastically. Then she noticed Kai. She had to admit that he was rather cute. She liked him. Kai noticed that the girl was looking at him. He didn't like her at all. He walked up to Divano and whispered something in her ear that made her smile. The other girl became rather jealous. " So you were getting a tour here?" Judy asked her son. " Yeah we did," Max said happily. " Then I'll go with you," she said. " Really?" Max asked. " Sure. I haven't seen you for so long that I would really like to spent some time with you," Judy said and moved her hand through his hair.
They continued their tour. At one point they got to a training facility. " Wow look at that," Tyson said and pushed his nose against the glass wall. " You want to try to take someone on?" Judy asked. " Sure," Tyson said excited, " I bet I can beat them all." " Yeah right," Emily said mockingly, " so why don't we have a little game then? Three on three." " Yeah sure. How about you Ray?" Tyson asked. " I can't see a reason why I won't do it," the answer came. " Me too," Max said and smiled. He would make his mom proud by winning from one of her students. " Ok then we are going down to join the others," Emily said and showed them the way.
" Sure you don't want to go?" Judy asked. " No thanks," Kai simply said. " How about you girl?" Judy asked and looked at Divano. " I don't like to waste my time on people who are not worth it. And besides...he wouldn't let me either," she said and looked at Kai, " at least not in my condition." Judy narrowed her eyes. What did she mean with her condition? She observed the girl and noticed the her stomach was rather large. " I see. Well it's your decision," Judy said and smiled. Then she turned her attention back to the bladers. So that girl was pregnant of Kai? No wonder why he wouldn't let her blade. They probably hadn't told the others yet. Judy shook her head lightly and concentrated back on the match downstairs again.
" Bladers are you ready to start?" Judy asked and started the first match. It was quite easy as they found out. So they won the first two matches. Kai looked down and narrowed his eyes. This was going far to easy for him. There was something going on there and he knew it. He just didn't trust what was going on there. Judy noticed that and smiled. That guy was smart. " OK the last round," she said. This round was going to be a bit harder for the Blade Breakers.
Max was the one who was going to blade. His opponent was Emily. Max narrowed his eyes. There was something wrong here. Ah well, he was going to win anyway and than his mother would be proud at him. He would prove to her that he was a great blader as well. Draciel was launched into the air by the other blade. Thereby he landed outside the stadium. " No that can't be," Max softly said and picked up his blade. " How did she do that?" Ray said and looked at Max and then at Emily. Emily just smirked.
Later on that day, they had a little break in the cafeteria. " Finally, I'm so hungry," Divano said and sat down. Kai softly moved his hand over her lower back. That made her slightly feel better. Judy got paged so she needed to get back to her work again. " Come Emily. We need to go," she said, " I'll see you soon Max." " Bye mom," he said and smiled. " I'm glad that that girl is gone. I swear she's after you," Divano said in Russian. Kai had taught her that language cause that way they could talk to each other without letting others know what they were talking about. " I noticed that too. But hey you I only want you," he said and looked at her. " Yeah I know," she said and felt his hand on her stomach. " And now please try English," Ray said. Divano glared at him.
Tyson just stared at them. What was that language? Sounded like Russian or so. But where did she learn that? " Hey why don't we watch a few more things here. Now that we are here," he said. " Yeah I want to see more of this place," Ray said. " How about you Kai?" Tyson asked. " And no dessert?" he said and drunk from his coffee. " Then we're going without Kai," Ray said and left. " Like usual you won't leave the table till you had your dessert," Divano said when the others were gone. She smiled at him. " Hmph," he said and drunk the last bit of his coffee, " you won't do that either." " Yeah that's true," she said and smiled, " and besides...it's free." " Now your talking," Kai said and smiled at her.
