"Talking in Russian"

"Talking normal"

Chapter Five

Kai woke before sunrise, cleaning up his apartment he took a long shower and got ready for the day ahead.

His mind was made up, he was going to give Kaiya one chance and one chance was all she had; it was like grading a person in a way.

As he walked down the stairs towards the roads his thoughts were mixed, his memories a mess, he remembered Kaiya being a silent child never saying a word, while he had been cautious of everything that happened and spoke when even told not too.

Looking across the street Kai caught sight of someone that sent chills down his spine, it was a man, the same man from when he was merely three years old, he was smiling at her a look of confidence, and as a car raced past he was gone like a flash.

Kai didn't understand, why should he be seeing him now, when he was gone all those years ago.

Don't wanting to linger on the subject he walked towards Tyson's house.


Tyson's house was in an uproar, Ray was asked to come over because Heero was there and Hilary was with him they were all arranging the banquet for Friday which was in three days time.

Max had stopped by because Tyson wanted to practice and no one would battle him.

It took them to realize Kai was standing in the dojo with them, arms crossed face expressionless.

His gaze ran over Kaiya a flicker of something was there and gone as fast as lightning.

She watched and cheered the two boys on, Hilary sitting next to her; they were looking through a fashion magazine.

"Hey Kai…what brings you here?" asked Ray smiling up at his friend, Kai nodded towards Kaiya.

The battle ended with Max winning, Tyson complaining bitterly on losing, Heero had disappeared and luckily hadn't seen his brother's loss.

"Why am I losing I'm the champ I should be winning!"

"Maybe you should train more, like Kai says" pointed out Hilary.

"Or maybe you should just grow up" came another voice, turning everyone saw Kai standing in the doorway, his gaze flickered over everyone, he rarely made spontaneous visits.

Kai's gaze lingered on Kaiya for a moment their eyes locking; Kaiya looked away as if embarrassed.

"What brings you here Kai?" asked Ray, smiling at him knowingly.

Kai smirked, it was a smirk the guys had learnt that meant trouble, what did Kai have installed today?

"We're going out"

"Out? Where?"

"We are going to the aquarium"

"The aquarium, why we've been there hundreds of times" Tyson was confused.

Kai looked over at Kaiya, he knew she'd never been to one, if she had taken the normal Russian schooling she wouldn't have…he knew how the system worked all to well.

"But I know someone who hasn't"

Tyson and Max looked at Kaiya shocked.

"You mean you've never been to the aquarium!"

Kaiya shook, her cheeks now a rosy pink.

"So Kai, why've you suddenly taking us out?" asked Ray, a mischievous smile playing at his lips.

Kai shrugged, "No reason, just-spur-of-the-moment kind of thing"

Kaiya was silent, she didn't know what to say, looking at everyone she smiled and nodded, it would be great to go.


"Look over there, can you see the angel fish, isn't he big" came an ecstatic voice from a crowd.

Tyson and Max gave Kaiya the grand tour, pointing out fish and telling her things you'd find in Jaws.

Kai watched with Ray at his side, Hilary with Kaiya to keep her company.

Ray looked up at Kai, whose trained eyes were staring at Kaiya, his eyes glazed over.

"What's the real reason why we're here Kai?" he suddenly asked.

Kai didn't look at Ray but removed his gaze from Kaiya and stared at the fish, "No reason, like I said, spur-of-the-moment"

Ray gave Kai a look, Kai almost snorted at his face.

"Is it because Kaiya's never been to one…how did you known she's never been to one in the first place?"

"Yes Ray it is because Kaiya has never been to an aquarium, and how did I know…I didn't always have a private school life you know"

"You mean you weren't always at some private boarding school?"

Kai shook his head, "No Ray…at first Voltaire sent me to one of the public schools, and since it didn't work out I was sent away to a private school or I was tutored at home"

Ray stared at Kai, this was something new to him, and then he looked at Kaiya who was laughing at something Tyson had said.

"Are you doing what I think your doing?"

Kai raised an eyebrow, "And what is it that I am supposedly doing?"

"Excepting Kaiya"

Kai smirked, clever Ray but not completely right.

Ray stopped at smiled at Kai, "You have haven't you! So are you taking her to the banquet?"

Kai frowned at this.

"Kai?"

"I don't know Ray"

Ray shrugged.

The group soon came to a section of seals, Tyson jumped up and down at this and Kaiya gasped at them; she'd only seen them on TV or in books.

Kai came and stood next to her.

"Having fun?"

Kaiya looked up at him surprised at such a comment.

"Thank you Kai"

"For what exactly?"

Kaiya smiled, "For trying".


I'm going to cut it short there, hope you enjoyed.
