What's up every body! Only a few more chapters! Yay! I'd like to thank all of my reviewers for their support. Well, here's the story.
Disclaimer: I don't own beyblade!
Mariah layed on her bed, head resting on her hands. She stared at a picture of Kai on her dresser. Lee cracked her room door open. It had been a week since her and Kai broke up and she still thought about him. Her older brother looked down and pushed the door open. The pink haired girl sat up, startled, looking at her brother. "What do you want?" she demanded. "It's time for dinner." she looked away from him and stared at her head board. "I'm not hungry." she said quickly. Lee walked fully in the room. "Mariah..." he closed the door. "You haven't been hungry for a week." he said calmly. "Please eat something."
Th pinkette turned around and looked at him."I just don't want to eat." Lee sighed. "What are you anorexic now? Did somebody say something about you?" He is so over protective. I wish he would just but out for once. "No, no one said anything. Just get out!" she pushed him to the door. "Mariah..." he was out the door now. "I---" he got cut off by the door being slammed in his face.
He went down stairs to the kitchen. Kevin and Gary sat there waiting. "So, is she coming?" the green haired kid asked. Lee shook his head. Sitting, he sighed. "What am I gonna do?" the confused neko-jin rested his head in his hands. "Gary told you." the large one said. Lee began to think.
Back with Ray. The black haired neko-jin nearly fell on his way back to the hotel room. Kai had almost ,literally, worked him to death. (A/N: I have nothing against Ray. It's just this story.) He opened the door and collapsed on the first bed he got to, which was Kai's, unfortunately. Kai sat on the other side of the room in a chair. "You can't be done with 20 laps that fast." he said monotoned.
"Yes... I... am." Ray managed to get out between breaths. "I want another 30." he said in a dark and evil voice. That's when his phone rang. Still watching Ray, he answered it. "What?" he asked harshly. "I heard about you and Mariah." came a voice. "Who is this?" the angry blue haired teen asked. "You don't need to know that." it was definitely a boy. "Who are you!" Kai asked again.
"You don't need to know that, but I know who you are." a pissed of Kai had a very pissed of look on his face. "Of course you do! You have my freakin' phone number!" The voice laughed. "Or should I say I know what you are." Kai raised an eyebrow. Ray layed on the bed listening hard. Who is that? It better not be Mariah. If it is I'll... I'll... think of a threat when I'm not this tired. Ray closed his eyes.
"What do you mean you know what I am!" he gritted his teeth. "Temper, temper. Isn't that what made you lose Mariah in the first place?" the person teased. "How do you know all of this? Are you a stalker?" this was getting annoying. "You're an idiot! That's what you are." the voice said simply. Kai was fuming. This guy is a dead man. "If it were me I would have just grabbed her and ran, but you made the stupidest move ever! You broke up with her! What is wrong with you!"
"Is this..." he tried to make a guess, but couldn't come up with anyone. "Who is this?" he said more calmly. "A friend." "What's your name!" Dial tone. Kai was close to slamming his cell on the floor. He put his hands through his hair. I need to take anger management classes... again. he sighed. It true what they say, girls do make you do crazy things. I gotta get her off my mind. he thought.
He turned his head to Ray again. "O.k." The neko-jin looked at him. Oh, no! No more exercise! I think I'm gonna die! he groaned. "I guess you can rest." you don't know how hard it was for him to say that. Ray looked up at him. "Get off my bed." Ray obeyed, not wanting to get Kai any madder (Is that a word?). The blue haired boy fell on his bed and sighed in frustration. The boy across the room dared to his question, "Why did I have to do all that exercise and Tyson and Max didn't?"
Kai looked over to him and growled, "Ray your annoying me. Say one more thing and I will punch the living daylights out of you." Did he dare to ask another question? No he didn't.
Back at Mariah's place. Lee had finally got Mariah to come eat something. She had to admit, to herself, she was hungry. Eating silently, she tried to put her mind on something else besides... him. She sighed, eating a little rice. "So, Mariah, how's school?" Lee asked trying to help her feel better by talking about something other than Kai.
"It's o.k. I guess. I wish I had more real friends though." she rested her head on one hand. "What do you mean?" he asked. "You know, best friends. The ones that aren't hanging around you just because your popular." she thought for a while. "Come to think of it, I have no real friends." she said sadly. "You always make them run away or take me away from them!" she started to raise her voice.
"Mariah I already told you," her brother stood. "I took you away from Kai because---" "Who said I was talking about him!" she cut him off. "I wasn't! I was talking about Tala. He was a friend, a true friend and you didn't like him either!" Lee could take no more of this. He was the older sibling. He was not about to get scowled by his little sister. "Mariah! That is enough! I have had it with you mouthing off to me! I do all these things to protect you!" he walked around the table to her side. "Taking me away from the people I care about isn't protecting!"
Gary and Kevin were not getting in this cat fight. They watched hoping that no one would get hurt. "How dare you raise your voice at me!" Lee fumed with anger. "You will understand when your older! Now sit down and finish eating, not a word shall come out of your mouth!" the pinkette's meter was over boiling. She clenched her fists and gritted her teeth. "You don't don't tell me what to do! I have my own body, own spirit, own mind and behind so you might as well kiss it cause I down give a damn about what you say!" she stormed off mad.
Lee was out raged. Did his little sister just swear? "Mariah!" he went behind her. Kevin and Gary followed afraid that some one was going to jump on some one. They came just in time to see Lee grab his sister's arm and turn her around. Their eyes widened in fear and worry. Lee and Mariah's eyes were slits. "You have got on my last nerves! I have tried to be lenient with you, but you give me no other choice! You are grounded after school you come straight home no talking on the phone, no seeing your friends, no computer, and no Kai!" tears sprung from Mariah's eyes. She could not believe this was happening. Sure her and Lee have fought before, but never like this.
"You're not my dad, you're not my mom! You don't tell me what to do!" she snatched her arm from Lee an ran down the hallway to her room. "Mariah, when our parents died they left me in charge! I make the rules!" Mariah slammed her door with her back on it. Sliding down, she cried cupping her hands over her mouth. She could still hear Lee yelling at her from down the hallway. Her body shook as she cried. Please... anybody... come save me. she didn't care how, Mariah want to get as far away from her brother as possible.
She opened her puffy, red eyes and looked around her room. She looked at the lamp, no, better turn her head from that, she might be tempted to hit Lee with it. Her bed, crying on the bed won't help. Window... Mariah's sad expression turned to a mad one. Looking around, she grabbed her duffel bag. Locking her room door, she thought of things she needed. The angry pinkette grabbed her cell phone, saved money, a blanket, a bag of chips,2 extra outfits, and picture book. So long Lee! she thought furiously while opening her window.
Stepping out, she stared at the moon and starlit-night. This was her life and she was gonna live it how she wanted. Not thinking about where she was going, she walked down the street. Mariah shrugged the bag more on her shoulder to a comfortable position the began to walk faster.
In the morning. Lee knocked softly on his sister's door. "Mariah." he called calmly. "Mariah, please unlock the door. I'm sorry about what I said last night." he waited for an answer. None came. "Mariah, are you in there." he used his finger nails to pick the lock, a little something he learned a long time ago. Kevin was right behind him. "Lee, I don't think you should go in there. She was pretty mad last night." he warned.
The black haired neko-jin heard his friend, but didn't show any sign. He pushed the door open. "Mariah..." he called. The room was silent. He looked in the closet. "Mariah." he called again. "Um... Lee?" he spun around to see Kevin standing by an open window. "Kevin, tell me you just opened that." he asked in a low voice. The short boy slowly shook his head. The worried brother rushed to the window. "Mariah!" he yelled looking around.
With the Bladebreakers. They were all running laps along the beach. Even though Ray did take his girlfriend away, Kai could make him do exercise alone every day. He had cool down a little. His new person to hate was that guy that called him the other day. They all stopped a the back hotel entrance, breathing hard. Well, Max, Tyson, and Ray were, Kai stood with his arms folded looking at them. "Come on, let's go to the weight room." he got a groan from the rest.
"Tyson, Max, I let you guys slack off a little to much. Now, let's go." Opening the door, Kai's cell phone started to ring. "It better not be that guy." he mumbled to himself. Flipping it open, he put it to his ear. "What?" the rest of his team stood there trying to catch their breath. "Kai." came the voice. "Lee." he said calmly. "Have you seen Mariah?" the White Tiger asked. "What do you mean have I seen her! She's not there with you!" Kai began to raise his voice. He heard Lee sigh. "We had an argument last night and she left." he explained.
"You idiot! How could you let her get away, no telling what could happen to her!" the blue haired boy scolded. "This wouldn't have happened if she was with me." he said. Lee hated to admit it, but Kai was right. "Just... help me look for her. She should be coming there." after Lee said that they both hung up. "Mariah's missing?" Ray asked with a worried expression. Kai glared then answered, "Yeah, I'm going to go look and see if she's here. You guys, go to the weight room." he commanded. "Got that, Ray." the raven haired boy turned his head from his captain.
Then Kai walk to an elevator to see if she was at their room. Ray waited until he was sure the elevator wasn't coming back down, then he took off out the door. "Ray, Kai told us to go to the weight room!" Max shouted after him, but Ray didn't look back. "Man, pretty soon the whole town's gonna be after that girl." Tyson shook his head. There was no noise for a moment, then Tyson broke the silence by saying, "Let's go eat!" startling Max. "No, Ty. I think we should go look for Mariah... while trying not to get caught by Kai." Tyson jumped, "Yeah, like on a dangerous mission. We have to find the princess before she falls into the hands of her evil brother, or mad scientist Ray, or the evil android Kai." Tyson said in a creepy voice.
Max sweat dropped. "O.k., but how about we just go find Mariah." he sugested. The navy haired kid shrugged, "Yeah, I guess that works too." they walked off.
Up a few floors, Kai was looking everywhere that Mariah possible could be. Mariah, where are you? Ray, who was out on the beach looked to all the rest spots and tables. He stopped running and ran his fingers through his hair. Mariah, where are you? Lee looked in his whole village, which wasn't that hard if you didn't count the forest he was now about to look in. Mariah, where are you?Finally when they all finished looking, not knowing whether the other found her. Kai, Lee, and Ray called the police. "O.k. well, see what we can do." was the reply they got.
At the police station. "We just got a call from China about a girl, Mariah Chou (A/N: Is that her last name?)." one police said. "Well, we just got on from Paris saying that same girl was missing." a detective said. "We got another from Paris, but I don't think it as the same guy." another detective. "This girl must be important, we better go find her!" the first detective said standing up. The weird thing was their office was way in the USA. How did a call from China and France go to the US? Weird.
And there you have it. Sorry I took such a long time. Oh, and I'm not exactly sure if Chou is really Mariah's last name so don't take it from me. Please review! See ya!
