Chapter 3
"Stop complaining just run the damn lap Takao."
"Aww, Kai you're so mean! Can't we just take a short break?"
Kai glared at the Japanese Blader. They were all running laps around the block. Even though he had been up late the night before and he was injured, Rei was up front with the other two Russians, followed by Max, then Takao and Kai. Kai was threatening with five more laps, just so Takao didn't stop.
"If you would just stop complaining and do the damn lap you could take a break. Now hurry up! I'm walking. And faster than you jogging right now!"
His words were true; Kai was walking backwards and was still in front of Takao who was all but crawling down the pavement.
"Takao! If you hurry up, I'll bake you a cake!"
Kai turned towards Rei, who had stopped along with the other two snickering Russians.
Before they even knew what had hit them, a gust of wind flew by each of the boys. Max ended up sprawled on the pavement with Yuriy soon joining him. Rei stumbled backwards but Bryan, quick as lightening, caught him before he could fall.
"Well! What are you waiting for! Hurry up you guys!" Takao called with renewed vigor.
Everyone else sweat-dropped at the boy's antics before continuing their jog.
Finally all six of them made it back to the dojo, either breathing heavily, or collapsing completely.
'I should make Rei run another lap, injury or not… he was up later then even I would have been last night, and he was up later this morning then he should have. It's not good for him. But, he is injured… What the hell? Am I going soft or something? Why should I give a damn if it's good for him or not? It's his choice to stay up late… But…it is my responsibility to make sure they are all trained and disciplined for the tournament.'
"Rei."
Everyone, including the raven haired Neko-Jin, looked towards the captain of the Blade Breakers.
"Yeah Kai?"
"You and Takao are to run another lap. Him for being a lazy ass and you for being up late last night which then made you wake up late for training this morning."
Yuriy glared at the captain, as did the mentioned Dragoon Wielder.
"No Fair Kai!"
/Kai! I thought that we were trying to help him! This is only going to irritate his wounds! What goddamn reason will he have to lighten up around us and trust us if you're going to be a fricking dictator/
Kai was stumped by the redhead's words, but refused to show it.
/He was up too late last night and it affected his training./
/He kept up with us Kai! And he bladed even though his wounds told him not to! Give him a break/
Kai glared at the Russian redhead.
/This isn't your team Yuriy. I'm in charge of their training. You can train them whatever way you want, when you become their Captain, until then, bugger off./
Yuriy glared at the stony faced captain.
"If you're arguing with him about us training harder, we deserve it Yuriy."
He looked over to Rei.
"What! Rei?" Takao complained
"Fine then, but I'm coming with you guys."
With that, Rei and Yuriy began their jog, leaving the blue Dragon lagging behind.
After a small while, Rei spoke up.
"Thanks for sticking up for me Yuriy, but really, he was right to do it."
Yuriy looked over to the Chinese Blader before turning his head back in front.
"If you say so, but he was still being a Jock about it. Takao I can understand, but you kept up with Bryan, and me, that in its own is an achievement, and you did the rest of the training to the best of your abilities. Even in your condition. He could have lightened up about it."
"If you don't mind me saying Yuriy, you really aren't who you were three years ago, are you?"
"Depends, what do you mean?"
"I mean, when we battled you in the tournament in Russia, you were cold, ruthless, still, one hell of a fighter, but the air around you kinda radiated enforced evil, but now, even if not around anyone, you're still warm, kind, strong, caring, and like I said…one hell of a fighter, both in Beyblading and physique."
A short and comfortable silence followed that before Yuriy stopped.
"Thanks I think, and I guess you're right, but getting that damned chip out of my head probably helped."
"Chip?"
"Yeah the thing that made me Cyber Yuriy."
He glanced at the Byakko Avatar who was down on the ground nursing his ankle.
"You wanna stop for a little bit Rei?"
He stood up and shook his head.
"Lets take a detour shall we? Maybe to the store, for dinner supplies?"
"What the hell, sure."
They changed course and Rei threw his cell phone over to Yuriy who asked what he was supposed to do with it.
"Text or call Kai and tell him where we're going would you?"
He nodded and called the holder of Suzaku.
"What Rei?"
Yuriy grinned.
"I'm not Rei, but thanks for the ever so nice 'hello' Kai." Yuriy snickered.
"Yuriy? What the hell are you doing on Rei's Phone? Did he get hurt or something?" There was a slight tone of panic in Kai's voice. If you didn't know Kai, you wouldn't ever have been able to tell.
"Oh, so you care now, but you didn't care when you sent him out here?"
"Yuriy…"
"Oh Chill out Kai, He's fine."
"Then why did you call?"
"Because we're going to go and get some things for dinner, so we'll be late getting back."
"/Fine, Bye /"
"/Bye love /"
"/Ass /"
"Yes I am, now bye."
Yuriy hung up the cell phone and handed it back to the Neko-jin.
"From what I understood, that was an interesting conversation."
Yuriy nodded.
"So, what's for supper?"
Rei shrugged before halting and walking onto the Super Market.
