25. Farewell

Bree slumped down in the chair her and Kai had usually occupied during the nightly gathering of the family. With the sorrow that day plagued her with the young woman just wished to be alone silently thanking Bryan for taking Kayla out for a little walk to calm the girl's nerves and the fact that Tala was still off at work. Knowing he would be home soon she sat their quietly grasping her single chance to have no disturbances in her time of grief but her plans were all dashed in a single second as a boy appearing to be a year and a half ran over to her.

"MOMMY," the little tyke screamed as he pounced into her arms.

Bree gave her son a hug and with a smile looked down at him. He looked so much like his father with a head of fiery locks of red sporting strands of purple at their tips as well as possessing deep blue eyes in a shade that fell somewhere between Tala's crystal and Bree's own sea like coloured orbs. Staring into the piercing depths of his eyes Bree's mind took her back in time to the day her son had been born.

Flashback

Bree lay in a hospital bed with a sleeping infant held tightly in her arms the woman utterly exhausted from the birth that had just taken place. She had just about drifted into sleep when her four friends came crowding into the room wondering how things had went. Tala being the father as well as her husband the two having married a few months before took a seat next to Bree's bed while Bryan and Kayla occupied a chair placed near to the door.

"So this is my son then," Tala wondering beaming down at her his gaze locked on the peaceful looking boy.

"Yeah," she replied returning his look with a weak smile.

Catching the movement Kayla asked, "You okay Bree?"

"Fine the pregnancy just took a lot out of me," the girl confessed allowing Tala to hold his newborn son.

"So what you guys gonna name the little tyke?" Bryan wondered asking the question both on his and Kayla's minds.

Tala turned his gaze from the child the couple glancing at one another their eyes locked for a single moment in silent agreement and in unison the two answered, "Kai."

End Flashback

In a sweet voice Bree acknowledged her son and said, "Hey there Kai how's it going?"

"Great Mommy, Daddy coming home soon?"

"He should be," she replied but was cut off by a clicking sound made by the front door.

"Hey you two, sweet little thing isn't he," Tala inquired from behind the chair entering the for once quiet house.

"Hi Daddy," Kai said smiling up at his father.

Taking his son into his arms Tala ruffled the little boy's red hair gaining a content and happy laugh from the boy.

"So Tala how was work," Bree asked her husband when he had given her a welcoming kiss.

"Fine it's work what do you expect?"

"Yeah good point," she replied letting out a wry smile not wanting to upset the man with her sorrow.

I wish Kai were still here if it weren't for Boris we'd be married by now, the young woman thought her heart still ached with the loss of her former lover.

"I wanna play," Kai called out startling Bree from her reverie.

"Sure why not we'll go out to the front yard that way we'll be able to see when the others get back," Tala suggested setting Kai down watching the little boy dash outside. "You gonna join us Bree?" He asked turning to the wife he so dearly loved.

"Yeah," she replied and with the man wrapping an arm around her they followed their enthusiastic son.

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

A while later Bryan and Kayla had arrived home from their walk with their daughter.

"Hey Bridget let's battle," Kai offered inviting the girl only a month younger than him over to play.

Bryan had decided to name his daughter after their mother who when she was alive was a very beautiful woman. Like Kayla Bridget looked a lot like her mother with bright blue hair and a happy twinkle in her eyes that resembled a blue closer to the shade of her father's.

Obliging her cousin the girl ran over to Kai who stood at one side of a Beystadium the adults had set up for the kids with his beyblade ready to launch. Readying her own beyblade at the other side the two kids launched. A whir of purple and dark blue whizzed around the dish colliding as they tried to knock out the other. Seeing the children's interest in blading Bree had decided to give them the old beyblades she had kept from her deceased brother and friend. Feeling that it was the right thing to do she had given Dranzer to the little Kai and Amethyst to Bridget awing the young children who though didn't quite understand felt a sense of honour with the beyblades they held in their hands.

Standing off to the side the adults watched as their children played joyously together. Kai and Bridget both possessed great skill and the two were quite evenly matched but the battle had to end sometime and when it did both Dranzer and Amethyst lay in the grass making the outcome a tie.

(A/N: Thought I forgot about beyblading didn't you guys?)

"Hey guys I'm gonna go for a little drive. Tala watch Kai will you," Bree voiced as the kids picked up their fallen beyblades.

"Sure have fun Bree," the other three replied and she walked off starting up a little blue car that the family possessed.

ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Bree drove through Moscow Russia the girl not stopping until she had arrived at her destination the cemetery.

Going up to Kai's grave she thought, I can't believe it's been two full years since you died. Oh Kai I miss you so much I hope you and Ben are doing all right up there.

Staring down at the grave that read 'Kai Hiwatari RIP' she read the date that was the same as that day just two years before. When they had gone to bury him everyone decided it would be right placing the young man next to his parents and there he lay his spirit wandering happily in heaven. Placing one of the roses Tala had given her in front of the tombstone as a silent farewell Bree turned around and left the mournful place.

On the drive home she switched on the radio and Meet You There by Simple Plan began to play bringing tears to the woman's eyes.

Now you're gone, I wonder why you left me here
I think about it on and on and on and on and on again
I know you're never comin' back
I hope that you can hear me
I'm waiting to hear from you
until I do

You're gone away
I'm left alone
A part of me is gone
And I'm not movin' on
So wait for me
I know the day will come

I'll meet you there
No matter where life takes me to
I'll meet you there
And even if I need you here
I'll meet you there

I wish I could've told you
The things I kept inside
But now I guess it's just too late
So many things remind me of you
I hope that you can hear me
I miss you
This is good-bye
One last time

You're gone away
I'm left alone
A part of me is gone
And I'm not movin' on
So wait for me
I know the day will come

I'll meet you there
No matter where life takes me to
I'll meet you there
And even if I need you here
I'll meet you there

No matter where life takes me to
I'll meet you there
And even if I need you here
I'll meet you there
I'll meet you there

And where I go you'll be there with me
Forever you'll be right here with me

I'll meet you there
No matter where life takes me to
I'll meet you there
And even if I need you here
I'll meet you there
No matter where life takes me
I'll meet you there
And even if I need you
I'll meet you there

I need you
I need you
I need you
I'll meet you there
I need you
I need you
I need you
I'll meet you there

The words of the song faded away as the little car sped through the streets and as she drove Bree couldn't help her self as tears rolled down her cheeks and she thought back to the good old days when there was just her, her brothers, and Kai.

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
