-Chapter Eight-
.:Dreams Of Light:. ***** [Rei's POV] [I'm gonna try this out, wish me luck if it goes well!]
-:|Dream|:-
It's this dream again . . . Where I run and run in an endless hallway. Why do I keep getting this dream?
Sprinting down a dark columned hallway that seems to go on forever made me wonder. . .
What am I running from?
Nothing seemed to be alive; only me. I looked in every direction in hoping to see my fellow teammates but only to be confronted by darkness. Glancing behind me to answer my question, I saw none; only more darkness that wanted to swallow me up. But why is it? I strained the muscles in my legs. I wanted to stop to catch my breath but I couldn't. Something, like a force maybe, restrained me from resting; probably because it doesn't want me to be in the darkness.
What are you trying to tell me?
I looked up, straight ahead, thinking that I saw a speck of light. Blinking again, the speck was gone. Am I hallucinating? No, I can't, I'm in a dream. Have I forgotten that this will end eventually? That this is only my imagination? But . . . somehow, it doesn't feel like any ordinary dream. Something's different about this. It's always different every time I have this dream. But what?
"Guardian of Light! You must hurry!"
It's that voice. It sounds awfully familiar. It's a boy's voice but whose? Guardian of Light? What's that?
With my hopes up high, I gained an extra burst of refreshing energy. This time, the never-ending hallway will reach to an end. I know it. Approaching that once speck of light, now a huge gateway, I ran through it, where the chasing darkness halted and retreated.
I made it! I finally reached the end! Maybe this time, I'll see the owner's voice.
Squinting my amber eyes; a silhouette figure wasn't all that far away in this brightly lit place. It was the exact opposite of the gloomy hallway, but this had white flowers of every type imaginable placed on every columns. I sprinted to the figure, hoping to get my endless questions answered.
"Hey!!" I called out, waving my hands in the air.
The figure turned around, face somehow got covered by the shadows which is impossible by the way! It's brightly lit and this dude has shadows! Anyways, I skidded to a stop, a few feet away from the figure.
"Guardian of Light, your destiny awaits for you in the near future" The figure said, lifting up his face to reveal a pair of recognizable red- brown eyes.
"What . . . Destiny?"
He was about to lower his hood to show his face that he was . . . . .
-:|End Dream|:-
I woke up, rising from the comfortable bed in Kai's many room of a mansion. That dream was still fresh in my mind. Deciding to think about it later, I rubbed my eyes to adjust to the morning light. I looked around the luxury room.
Across from the bed and on the other side of the wall, was a balcony with pale white for the curtains. The wall was a very light blue for the hue, and to my right was a fine dresser with a built in mirror, my bag with my clothes and some belongings was dropped beside the dresser. The bed I was in was obviously queen size, making me feel puny just being in it. The comforter mattress was apparently navy blue with the blanket midnight blue. The fluffy pillows were white with the hems royal blue. Gosh, this room must be based on blue . . .
Stretching and yawning, I jumped out of the huge bed, heading to the balcony, figuring to get some fresh air. Opening the clear door, I peer over the railing, spying Kai training with his Dranzer. Wondering if Kai needed an opponent, I hurried to the washroom, got dressed and out to the backyard and launched Drigger into play. Noticing that Kai accepted, we began our morning battle which eventually woke everyone up.
"It's six in the morning" Tyson yawned, still rubbing his eyes, "and on a Sunday, too."
"Get use to it" Kai quietly snapped.
"Hey, where's Raikou?" Max asked, looking around. "She was here asleep last night . . ."
"She has a job remember?" I reminded Max, catching Drigger with my right hand. "Guess it's a draw, Kai."
"Hn." Kai retrieved Dranzer and launched it again, this time his opponent was the aluminum cans.
"Don't you think it's early for a grocery store to be open this early in the morning?" Kenny inquired as he adjusted his glasses on his head.
"She was gone when I woke up" Kai replied, not leaving his sight from his blue beyblade. "And that was five this morning."
"Weird . . ." Tyson said quietly, trying to muster up a possible reason for Raikou's early leave.
I thought it was weird, too. Why would a girl like her wake up around four in the morning to go to a grocery store that doesn't open until seven- thirty? I'm surprised she had the strength to rise so early considering the fact that we didn't get to bed until eleven last night, just to catch up in the events in each other's lives. Now that I mentioned it, Raikou didn't talk much about herself . . . . Everyone was quiet for a minute or two, thinking why she left so early. I did, too but just couldn't come up with a logical explanation.
"She probably woke up early to look for something" Max suggested with a slight shrug.
"What would take her three and a half hours to look for?" Kenny asked incredulously.
"Well, maybe she was looking for someone rather" I replied thoughtfully. Yeah, that must be the reason why.
"Raikou could've told us who she was looking for and we would've helped" Tyson said.
"And beside, when we first brought her to Kai's place she said she only needed a place to stay until she found someone" Max recalled.
"She didn't say anything about having any siblings" Kenny added.
"Raikou didn't talk much about herself" Kai stated with finality as Dranzer returned to his hand. "Look, it's not our business to know what she does four in morning. Our only concern is that she arrives back in my mansion for sleeping until her searching is done. Nothing more nothing less, you got that?"
This was probably one of the rare times that Kai spoke that much about someone outside the team. Then after that, everyone went onto our usual morning exercise of honing our beyblading skills, even though our team is the World Champs, and had breakfast . . . .
-:|Late Afternoon|:-
Everyone was lounging around the kitchen and living room; Tyson and Max were obviously hyper to the extreme after eating two bags of Pixie Sticks. I don't know how the two got a hold of those sweets, but they did. Kenny was doing some update analysis on our training; Kai was listening to his high-tech mini CD player, off in the kitchen, looking like he was in deep thoughts. It looked like it though . . . As for me, I was flicking through the channels, wondering what's good to watch on a Sunday afternoon.
Then the front door creaked open, and in came Raikou waltzing in the kitchen with her arms full of grocery bags.
"I hope you didn't buy any sweets, Raikou!" Kenny called out to the kitchen.
Raikou was grinning but she shook her head after she placed the bags on the bar countertop.
"Raikou no buy sweets or unhealthy food! Raiju says it no healthy to body, mind and spirit!"
She started to unpack the things, putting them in their correct place. Tyson and Max bounced into the kitchen, going through Raikou's bags.
"Out!!" Raikou shooed the two boys out of the kitchen. "Raikou have no sweets! Go away!"
After Raikou had unpacked the food she was in her room, upstairs across from Max's room. I'm not sure what she was doing up in her room, but something felt rather . . . weird. I couldn't pin point what exactly, but it did felt like that. The pocket in my pants where I left Drigger started to warm up. That's weird, Drigger hardly calls me at times like these. I pulled Drigger out of my pocket, closely examining him, wondering what's up. The seal glowed white, blinding my sight for a few seconds. I blinked. Huh?
'Rei-san.'
"Huh?" I looked around, wondering who called me. Rei-'san'? Master??! I sighed, that's the same voice in my dreams!
"What's up Rei?" Tyson stared at me, face-to-face. "Looked like you seen a ghost!"
I blinked several times before replying. "Um, no . . . Nothing . . . Just thought-never mind." I shook my head. "I'm fine."
"Whatever you say, Rei Mister!" Max grinned goofily before he ran around, chasing Tyson.
I slumped back on the couch, wondering. Who would call me that? I'm not a master at anything beside beyblading and cooking. Closing my eyes, re- collecting my thoughts, that dream resurfaced again . . . .
-:|Dream|:-
It reappeared again. That bright place . . .
"Rei-san . . ."
It's that same voice!
I looked around, trying to find that figure again.
Huh?
This place seems to be . . . . getting smaller?! I couldn't find the figure but I knew for a fact that the darkness is overwhelming this light! Then suddenly, the once brightly lit place is now pitched black. The once white exotic flowers withered away.
What's going on here?!
I looked around wildly. I wanted to wake up. Now. I wanted to get out of here.
"Rei-san, onegai, calm down."
How can I calm down?
Panting heavily, I attempted to calm down as the voice told me so. Closing my eyes, a faint image of something flickered in my mind.
Dr-Drigger?
The white tiger roared, bobbing its head up and down. I snapped my eyes open. Drigger . . . can talk? Like how Raikou and Raiju talk? Telepathically? I shook my head. No, that's impossible . . . right? I then realized my surrounding was in complete darkness. I frantically turned in every direction. My assumption was absolutely correct; only darkness enveloped me. Already, it was getting cold. I hugged myself, noticing that I could see my own body.
How can I see myself in the dark?
In my right hand, somehow, my Drigger Blade was in my hand. It was glowing like my body was. What's going on? Why is this happening? Many questions swirled in my mind. I needed answers now like how I wanted to wake up. I slowly squatted down, still hugging myself as well as grasping tighter onto my blade. The shines in my eyes seems to have fade away as negative thoughts managed to slip through my empty mind of questions. I don't why though, but it felt like the darkness was part of me now . . . I felt so cold, so alone . . . . I need my friends support . . . Where are they? Why aren't they helping me? Rei, get a hold of yourself! Don't doubt your friends . . . They'll get through. They always do.
"Rei!"
Huh? Tyson?
My amber eyes flickered to life again, hearing a supportive voice.
Tyson, where are you?!
"Hey, wake up, Rei!"
Max?
"Rei!"
Kenny?
"Rei, wake up!!"
Raikou? Kai?
Images of my friends faded into view in the darkness. Five offering hands dipped into the darkness, lending me a hand; guiding me back into the light. I shakily stood up, grasping one of them. The hands lifted me off my feet. Right then and there, I was overwhelmed with relief and satisfaction. I knew who my real friends were. I knew it all along but why did I ever doubt them? The hand holding Drigger, the warmth seems to have strengthen the farer I am from the darkness and the nearer I am to the light. Drigger helped me. Maybe he's my guide of light . . .
-:|End Dream|:-
"Rei!"
I groggily open my eyes, finding myself to be confronted with five heads looming over my sight.
"What's . . . up?" I slowly sat up, looking at each faces which was filled with concern and worried ness.
"You're what's up!" Kenny exclaimed.
"Huh?" I looked at Kenny dumbfounded. "What happened?"
"You-you looked like the soul was sucked out of you!" Tyson replied.
"It looked like you were taking a nap" Kai explained. "But when Max and Tyson were jumping on the couch, they noticed you didn't react."
"Rei, you tipped over, eyes open dilated!" Max exclaimed. "Me and Tyson panicked so we got the others."
"You scared everyone, Rei! Raikou was about to call ambulance!" Raikou had concern written all over her face, clutching her beyblade tightly. "Raiju informed Raikou just in time!"
Everyone turned their heads to look at Raikou.
"You mean, Raiju knew?" I asked, standing up.
Raikou meekly took a step back, still grasping her beyblade. "Yeah, Raiju knew. Raiju knew this was going to happen. It all fated, you see."
"Hold up, wait a minute!" Tyson said. "'Fated'?!"
"Rei should know. He read Prophecy, yes?" Raikou glanced over at me.
"Oh yeah!" Max spun around. "Rei, you said you'd tell us!"
I was partially speechless. "Well, yeah. I guess it slipped my mind. Yeah, I read it."
"It gonna happen again, Rei" Raikou smiled a sad one. "You should tell friends. They have right to know."
"What right?" Kenny asked.
"Some people have parts; important ones." Raikou swirled around, stretching the hand holding her beyblade at arm's length. "Raiju have part, too. Also . . . You have to sacrifice a lot." Raikou flashed a grin. "Raikou know you do right. Raikou go now!"
She twirled around, arms flailing behind her. Kai grabbed one of her flailing arm. Raikou blinked at the boy.
"You're staying to listen." Kai instructed.
Raikou childishly pout. "Raikou already know it."
"Some parts are missing" I reasoned. "Like the Seven Heaven Precursors and alternative way to save the Worlds."
Raikou hesitated to answer but reluctantly stayed. "Fine, Raiju will help, too. But the Guardians will tell their Masters themselves!"
Everyone found a comfortable spot to sit around the living room; Tyson, Max, and Raikou squeezed to sit on the couch; Kenny was on the floor with Dizzi on; Kai was standing by the armchair, mini-CD player put away; and I was standing infront of the flat screen T.V. with my arms folded.
"Long ago when the Bit Beasts were used as powered up magical weapons, they could take form of humans, drawing their raw energy from their masters . . ."
