Disclaimer: I own none of the characters.

Sorry for the long update. I'm going to get things moving now. I think you girls/guys are tired of these chapters where nothing exciting happens, and its just words and feelings.

Hope you enjoy.

bA/N: I still have the BryanxRei one-shot if anyone is interested. It's a death fic.bChapter Nine – Traveling/b

Bryan returned back to the Demolition Boys' place a little while after he let Rei go home with his scarf. He climbed in through the window and collapsed onto his bed. Sighing he stared at the ceiling arms behind his head.

'What is going on with me? Am I starting to turn into one of those worthless Bladebreakers? No that can't be it. It wouldn't make sense and plus I would have killed myself at the first sign.'

Bryan rolled over onto his stomach and closed his eyes welcoming the darkness that came to claim him for the remainder of the night.

The sun rose slowly as dawn welcomed itself to the world. Bryan woke up and realized that he still was wearing his jacket from his night adventure. Taking it off, he quickly grabbed a change of clothes and headed to the shower before the others of his team could.

Closing the bathroom door he quickly stripped of his clothes and stepped under the scolding hot water. He let the water run roughly over his pale skin which was now starting to turn a peachy colour due to the temperature. He didn't care. Unconsciously he brought up a hand and ran it over the tattoo code that he had on his shoulder. Memories of Rei running his tanned finger over it came back to Bryan. Snapping out of the daze he quickly finished and turned off the shower. Stepping out he quickly dried himself and changed. Discarding his old clothes he headed downstairs and out into the backyard. Pulling out his launcher and beyblade he launched Falborg and concentrated on the beyblade. He gave a silent command to Falborg to attack the stack of logs that were neatly piled up at the side. Falborg rose from his blade and sent his Stroblitz attack at the logs. In a matter of minutes the stacked logs were now cut up and lying scattered around the yard. Smirking Falborg made his way back to Bryan stopping at his feet. Bryan picked Falborg up and set him in the launcher and let him go this time at a higher angle. Falborg soared through the air and landed on the roof. Falborg grazed over the shingles before taking a dive off the roof and falling graciously onto the ground. Bryan smirked again at his launch.

He picked Falborg up and went inside to await the rest of his team. Tala was to give Mr. Dickenson their answer.

"We will go."

"Wonderful. I'm pleased that you boys are going to be joining us. Now I suggest that you four go back to your place and start packing. Your plane leaves at 19:00 tonight. Meet me at Gate D29. I'll be waiting. Well you boys can go now. I'm sure you have quite a few things to do." Said Mr. Dickenson who was sitting behind his desk. The Demolition Boys nodded and left the office.

Outside they turned to each other. Tala's blue eyes flickered towards the others.

"He's not telling us something. I know we're going to a tournament, but just something about it is strange. He does realize that we know nothing of their culture. What is he planning on doing? Get us a tour guide?" asked Tala rather to himself. He looked at the others. "Don't answer that. Come on we have to start packing." Said Tala before walking away back to their house.

"Glad we had this conversation." Said Spencer who along with Ian and Bryan were staring at Tala's retreating form. Bryan rolled his eyes and marched forward.

"Don't just stand there. People are going to wonder what two baboons are doing out of the zoo." He said not looking back. Spencer and Ian looked at each other.

"I'll hold him and you kick real hard." Said Ian angrily before marching off after Bryan and Tala followed by Spencer.

The Demolition Boys got home and started to gather their stuff. Grabbing sport bags that they had they put what little belongs they had and clothing. It didn't take long for them to finish. By 18:00 a BBA bus arrived at the house. The Demolition Boys got onto the bus each boy going to a different area. Spencer and Ian by the front; Tala in the middle and Bryan at the back secluding himself from the others. About thirty minutes later they arrived at the airport. Quietly they made their way through the airport, ignoring the stares they received from the few people who recognized them. Reaching the gate the spotted Mr. Dickenson standing talking to the gate attendants. The boys made their way over, not enjoying it one bit. Mr. Dickenson saw them approaching and finished up his conversation.

"Hello boys. Glad you are here. Well the plane isn't schedule to take off for another twenty minutes but you can go inside and make yourselves comfortable." He said moving out of the way so the four could go into the plane. Walking into the plane they realized that they we're the only ones there. Deciding that they could sit any where, they all sat on the right side. Tala and Bryan sat alone; Tala at the back row and Bryan a row in front, Spencer and Ian occupied the two seats in front of Bryan.

No more than ten minutes later the sound of rather loud talking was coming towards the plane. The Demolition Boys tensed slightly and awaited the guests that were coming. As if hell was against them, the Bladebreakers entered the plane and stared back at the Demolition Boys in silence.

"Are you guys going to stand there all day or are you going to take a seat and be civilized?" asked Kai pushing his way through the rest of his team. The rest of the Bladebreakers' snapped out of their daze and went to find seats. Rei walked by Kai hoping to seize the back row, when a hand reached out and grabbed him yanking him into the empty seat he just past.

Rei looked at Kai, who didn't look at him. Kai's eyes were closed and his arms crossed appearing as if he never had moved at all.

"Why did you do that?" asked Rei quietly so that Kai could only hear him. Kai opened one eye and glared at Rei.

"I don't need you sulking in the back anymore. You're staying where I can see you." Said Kai before closing his eye and going back to his silent self. Rei 'humped' and crossed his arms sulking into the chair. Kai brought a hand up and pulled up Rei up to sit up by the collar. Rei turned to him with a frustrated look. Kai opened his eyes and Rei put on a cheery fake smile.

"Happy? I'm not sulking." He said through clenched teeth. Kai rolled his eyes before closing them. The corners of his mouth twitched up for a moment. Rei dropped his façade before sighing and sitting back in his seat.

Across the isle, Bryan watched the whole thing from the corner of his eyes. He glared at the two.

'Look at what he has done to him. Turned him into one of them.' He said before turning back to the view out the window.

Okay there's chapter nine. I'm going to start getting the bits of yaoi out. And for those who forgot this isn't a KaixRei. Kai acts like an older brother.

I'll have chapter ten out soon. As well as chapters for my other fics.
