Sapphire Vixen
--By SunFireVixen--
Sun: -sulks-
I just noticed nobody cared thatI died... T.T
I was set on fire by a random passerby, dammit! ¬¬
XD
Ah, well. I got away with 390 degree burns, to all of you out there that care... and did voodoo.
Well, on more positive terms, I've added a linkon my profile, that leads to pictures of Sapphire, Sapphire's mother, and Emerald. They are kinda big, so the page will probably take a long time to load. I'll try to fix that soon.
I also wanted to say, to all the readers of My Guardian Angel II that I probably won't be updating the next week. I have a bad case of writer's block, and I feel all crappy right now, and I really haven't even started on the next chapter. Sorry about this.
Meanwhile, I hope that you enjoy this next chapter, which I really don't think is one of my best ones. I'll probably will be rewriting it or something.

Odango-chan - 'tis okay!
Kyaa... I don't think Sapphire would tell him to buzz off. That's more Emerald-style. XD -tries to imagine Sapphire throwing a random electric device at Kai- O.o I'd bet a pan would be sufficent, Saph.
I love the beybattles on Beyblade. But i'm not very good at describing what I want. .
XD I'm afraid what you will do when something that dangerous falls into your hands... -building blows up in background- O.O
No more plushies for you.
Kyogue - XD
Draelya - Yeah... she sure is... -sniff-
storm-of-insanity - Don't worry, I know that. I have this story planned until the end already, and I know every single thing that will happen during the story. I've added a small detail many might not see, and it's a hint that Sapphire will change soon. I'm sure you'll catch it. -wink- Thank you for paying attention, though.
personne du monde - Hey, may I ask what your penname means? I've always wondered.

No...(unfortuantely) he didn't die...darn.
And yeah, it would kill all of the excitement if he was killed... O.o
The fic dies if Fei dies? -grumble-
ghostymangarocker- o.o
XD fluff rules! It makes you feel all fuzzy inside.
Yeah... Sirius' death was... so unexpected.

Oh yeah, the name Sapphire is given is very simple in romaji. But it means Flower in Japanese. I'm not 100 sure, but i've done lots of research on the internet to be sure enough to put it up. -crosses fingers-
Chapter 27: War for the Flower
Sapphire stared up at Kai for a moment before her cheeks turned red. "What?"
Kai smiled down at her, almost as if his amethyst eyes seemed to look deep into her. "May I?"
' 'The day he declared his love for her, he asked her is he could give her a new name. One only he would call her...' ' her own words seemed to make a hole in her heart. She gulped, and mentally shook that thought.
"Y-you mean a...uhh a...nickname, r-r-right?" she stuttered, and laughed nervously.
"No. A name. One that only I can call you."
Her face became a even brighter shade of red. She stared up at his unbeleviable calm face.
She bent her head down, avoiding his eyes. "S-sure. I guess."
"Then I'll name you Hana."
She looked up at him confused. He smiled.
"It means Flower. Because... you are just as delicate as a flower and even though someone tears your petals, you still manage to keep on blooming and looking yet more beautiful than before."
Her face had turned completely red now, and she avoided his eyes. He smiled. He hugged her tightly, she grew even more red, and closed her eyes shut as he started to whisper in her ear, I...I-"
"Hey guys!" Max voice was heard from inside. Sapphire mentally thanked Max.
Kai sighed, and let go of Sapphire. Max stepped outside.
"Why are you guys still outside? It's getting dark now."
Max went back inside. Sapphire tried to follow him, but Kai grabbed her arm and pulled her back to him, pressing his lips against hers in a quick kiss. Kai broke the kiss, and left.
She pouted at his rough kiss, and stared at his retreating back as he stepped inside. As smile formed on her lips, and she quickly followed him inside.
Kenny looked up at her when she entered. "Would you like me to fix your blade for you, Sapphire?"
"Sure." she said, dropping the pieces of her blade into his hands.
"Oh, wait. I want you to put something else in there too." she said quickly, and dropped a small object into his hands.
He stared at it, and looked up Sapphire. He nodded. "I'll come back tomorrow with your blade." he said. "I have to leave now. My mother will probably start to worry." he walked out of the room, his laptop under his right arm, and the blade's pieces in his hands.
"He has a mother?" Tyson asked. Hilary glared at him.
"Well, he never has talked about his mother to us." Max agreed. Sapphire smiled.
Kai leaned on the doorframe leading out of the kitchen, a distance away from the rest, his arms crossed. He stared up at the ceiling for a moment, and turned back to the rest with a bored expression.
"I should go too. Grandpa will start to complain." Tyson said.
Sapphire looked up at him. "Tyson, can you tell your grandfather that I apologize?"
Tyson stared at Sapphire confusedly. "What? Why?"
"He knows. Just tell him." she said, staring miserably down at the marble floor.
Max stood beside Tyson. "Tyson, my mother said that I could stay with you tonight."
"Same here." Hilary said.
"Great. Let's go. Bye Sapphire!" Tyson walked out, Max and Hilary following him. They waved goodbye, leaving only Ray and Kai in the room.
Ray yawned. "I guess I should go too. Bye, Sapphire." he smiled at her, and left too. Kai stared at Sapphire. A small flashback of a few minutes ago played in her mind, and she reddened. He smirked.
"Do you have a place to stay, Kai?" Sapphire said, walking over to him.
"I'm going to stay at Tyson's." he said simply, staring up at the ceiling.
"Okay." she said.
He stared down at her sapphire-blue eyes for a moment, and smiled. He cupped her chin, and stroked her cheek with his thumb. She reddened, and her eyes widened. He smirked, and let go of her, leaving also. She smiled again, her blush fading.
' '...Because you are just as delicate as a flower and even though someone tears your petals, you still manage to keep on blooming and looking yet more beautiful than before...' '
"Because i'm fragile, and even though I suffer, I keep on being strong, and keep on going through life?" she laughed.
'Does Kai really think of me like that? Strong?' she pondered.
Sapphire walked out of the kitchen, grabbing a green apple on the way. She quickly climbed the stairs, sometimes taking two steps at the time. Walking silently back to her room, passing by some of the maids dusting, she munched on her apple and waved at the maids, who greeted her back with a smile. When she finally came to her bedroom door, she opened it, and then closed it behind her. She munched on her apple two more times, and walked outside into her balcony. She smiled at the sunset.
"Because you are just as delicate as the flower and even though someone tears your petals, you still manage to keep on blooming and looking yet more beautiful than before..." she repeated, her cheeks starting to burn. She smiled, and went back inside, closing her balcony doors behind her. She munched on her apple a few times until only the core remained, and threw it into the trashcan near her dresser.
She changed into her another gown, turned off the lights, opened the curtains of her balcony doors, and finally climbed into bed. She stared through her balcony doors outside, at the pearly white half moon.
'Won't be long until I change back...' she thought, and turned over to her side. She smiled in her sleep, dreaming of Kai.
In the morning...
"Okay, I'll see you in the afternoon, Riza." Sapphire yelled from the kitchen, dressed in her usual black dress and the same white ribbon that she had wore a few days ago. In her pocket, she held her ripcord and her launcher. Sapphire raced out of the kitchen, and opened the front door.
Riza looked down at her from the top of the stairs. "Alright, Mistress...but are you sure you don't want Takato to drive you there?" she said, concern in her voice.
Sapphire smiled at her. "I'll be fine Riza. It's not far. Well...sort of. But i'll be fine- don't worry. I'm just going to Tyson's house."
Riza hesitated, but nodded. Sapphire smiled at her again, and opened the door wider, stepping outside, and slowly closing it behind her. She sighed happily at the sky. Not a single cloud stained the sky. She quickly climbed down the steps, and ran over to the gates, and squeezing her small body between the gates, and raced off in the direction of the dojo. When she got there, Kenny was standing in front of the door, waiting to get in. From inside, Hilary slid the door open. Sapphire ran over.
"Hi!" she said, a smile on her face.
Hilary smiled back. "Hi."
"I was going to your place after I left here." Kenny said, Sapphire nodded and Kenny then took out something out of his pocket. He held out the object for her. She smiled, and took it. She stared down at it for a moment, and looked back down at Kenny.
"Is it inside?" Sapphire asked.
"Yeah. It seemed like if there was actually a special place carved out just for it to fit in." Kenny said.
Hilary stared at both of them in confusion. "What are you talking about?" she asked, switching her stare from Sapphire then Kenny.
Tyson appeared behind her, and placed his head on Hilary's shoulder. He didn't have his hat on, and his hair was all messy. Of course, it could actually be that it was always like that, that's why he always wore his hat...
"Hi, Tyson." Sapphire said, putting her blade in her dress pocket.
He yawned, and looked down Sapphire. "Hey Saph. Grandpa said it was okay, Sapphire."
Sapphire sighed, relieved.
"Hilary, have you seen Ray and Kai?" Tyson asked, looking inside the dojo.
"Yeah. They started to argue about something, and then they went outside-"
Kenny looked up. "I really don't think Ray or Kai would-"
"You should of seen them yourself, Kenny. Ray really surprised me. I thought he would only use that kind of anger in beybattles, but- hey, Saph, where are you going?"
Sapphire stopped running and looked back at Hilary. "I need to know why they are battling. They might hurt themselves."
"Okay. Just be careful."
Kenny followed Sapphire to the back of the dojo.
When Tyson was sure they were both gone, he slid his arm around Hilary's waist, and kissed her neck. She giggled as he pulled her inside, and he smirked slyly as he closed the door.

When Sapphire and Kenny got there, Ray seemed exhausted, and their blades were grinding into each other in Tyson's beystadium. Ray could barely stand up. Kai stood straight and confident, his arms crossed, focused on the battle. Ray glared at Kai, his pointed teeth over his lower lip.
"Face it, Ray. You can't win this battle.." Kai said, his eyes closed.
Ray's eyes became slits. "It's not over until it's over." Ray said through clenched teeth.
Sapphire stepped into view. "What are you two doing?"
They both turned to her. Kai stared at her with a cold expression. "Is it true you like Ray?"
She grew scared at his glare, and then reddened. "What?" she said, trying to figure out why that question would fit into the situation.
"Do you?" Kai asked again, his tone getting colder.
"N-no...What does that have to do with this?"
Ray sighed, and Driger jumped back to his hand. Kai stared back at Ray, and Dranzer jumped back to him also.
"It's nothing." Ray said, avoiding her eyes.
"Tell me what all of this is about." she said angrily. Kai sighed, and left without a word into the dojo. Sapphire stared confusedly at him as he closed the sliding door. She stared back at Ray.
"What happened, Ray?" Sapphire asked, stepping closer to him. He shook his head. He looked down at her. He smiled.
"Nothing, Sapphire. I'm going back inside." he said, and left. She stared at his back as he too, closed the sliding door.
Kenny cleared his throat. Sapphire stared down at him. "What?"
Kenny, under the hair covering his eyes, he raised an eyebrow. "Obviously you can't catch up."
Sapphire glared at him.
"They were having a beybattle...over you."
