It's been a few days after the World Championships. Ray had returned to his White Tiger village. Max and his parents went to America. Only Kai, Kenny and Tyson stayed in Japan.
The park
"Hey Kai." Tyson said, as he saw Kai in the park He was busy walking around. Since Kenny went to visit his grandparents, he didn't have anything to do. By chance, he found Kai.
"Hnn." Kai said. Tyson knew this is Kai's way of saying hello.
"So, whatcha being up to?" Tyson asked.
"Beyblading." Kai shrugged.
"Hey Kai""Can we beybattle?" Tyson asked .He gave Kai the puppy-eyes.
'He looks even cuter like that', Kai thought but snapped out of his thoughts," Of course. But don't cry when you lose"
"Oh yeah? Well, I'm the World Champion"
"So am I." Kai smirked, getting ready to launch. Tyson did the same.
"Three...Two...One. LET IT RIP!" the boys shouted in unison. Their beyblades spun passed each other around the ground. Whenever Dragoon tried to attack Dranzer, the blue beyblade would spin out of the way. Both beybladers shouted orders to their bit-beasts.
A few minutes later
"Dragoon, Phantom Hurricane!" Tyson shouted. Dragoon obeyed his master, and a huge twister was formed.
"Dranzer Flame Saber!" Kai shouted. Dranzer obeyed her master. The twister became a fiery one.
"AAH!" Tyson screamed. The heat didn't affect Kai. The twister was spinning out of control. It spun nearer and nearer to a tree. The flames licked over a large tree branch, before the twister spun away from the tree.
Tyson was too busy concentrating on Dragoon, to notice a tree branch was going to fall on him. But Kai did. Kai rushed to Tyson, and grabbed hold of Tyson. He leaped out of the way. His ankle twisted when he landed wrongly on his left foot. Tyson stared in shock at the tree branch. He could've been turned into a pancake. He looked at Kai, to thank him. He noticed Kai flinched a bit when he tried to tramp on his left foot.
"Kai, you're hurt." Tyson said with concern. He bent down to Kai's left leg.
"I'm fine." Kai gritted his teeth, using anger to hide his pain. He flinched when he felt Tyson's hands touching his ankle.
"You sprained your ankle, Kai." Tyson said, guilt evident in his voice.
"So? I'm fine." Kai said stubbornly. He didn't want Tyson to feel guilty about him.
"But, if it weren't for me, you wouldn't get injured." Tyson's eyes watered. He was upset. Kai felt guilty.
"I'm fine, Tyson. Really, I am." Kai tried to assure him.
"No, you're not." Tyson said. He leaned against Kai's left side.
"What are you doing?" Kai demanded, trying not to blush when Tyson wrapped his arm around his waist.
"Use me as a walking stick. I'll take you to my place. I owe you." Tyson smiled.
Tyson helped Kai to Grampa's dojo. Both boys tried their best not to blush. They finally got to the dojo.
"Yo dudes, what's shaking?" Grampa greeted. He was doing some kendo moves outside. He then noticed Kai was leaning against Tyson, looking as if he's in pain.
"What happened?" Grampa asked, rushing to the boys.
"We were beyblading, and a tree branch almost fell on top of me. Kai saved me, but sprained his ankle somehow." Tyson explained.
Grampa picked Kai up in his arms, and carried him to the dojo. Yep, Grampa's very strong. Tyson followed after him.
