Hi Everyone! I am so sorry for the late update. I have been trying for a week to update, but the site wouldn't let me. It has now and here is your well deserved Update! Injoy!
-Chapter 10-
"Welcome to the finals of Chinese Championships in Shanghai! The Round is The White Tiger X Team versus The Blade Breakers. Will the Blade Breakers go on to their 4th consecutive win? Or will the White Tiger X team win it all this year? Lets' get on to the match shall we?" DJ Jazzman called to the crowd.
The crowd began to scream as the Blade Breakers walked in, looks of shear determination laced into their eyes as they walked toward the dish.
Again, the crowd screamed as The White Tiger's walked into the field. Like the Blade Breakers, their faces showed nothing but determination. Well… All but Gary (Gao) Who looked hungry more then anything.
/Bryan! Hurry up! I am not missing Reis' match/
/The tournament hasn't started little own his match! He's second/
Yuriy turned and glared at the grey haired Russian behind him. They were making their way toward their seats, through the crowd.
/You're pushing it Kuznetsov… We would have been here already had you not decided you needed to smother me in the middle of the hall/
He growled. Bryan smirked with a sly look in his eye.
/You enjoyed it…/
/Shut… up… Or you aren't getting any for a long time…/
Bryans' smirk disappeared quickly and he frowned. And, as planned… Bryan shut up.
They finally made it to their seats about a minute later and were seated. The teams we just sitting down for the one minute break while the Kai talked to DJ.
Something beside Yuriy caught his attention. Without turning, his eyes scanned the person beside him. He then looked toward the ceiling.
'Why the hell did we have to get seats beside him! Out of -anyone- on this stadium… Him! One wrong word out of him and I'll kill him for what he's done.'
"Hello. You're Yuriy correct?"
Yuriy's head snapped over to the old man beside him. He could tell the sweetness in his voice was forced.
/Who is he Yue/
/Gin-Li… Rei's grandfather…/ He barked.
"Rei talks so much about you. Are you here to cheer on my grandson? I do hope he wins…"
He turned back to the dish just as DJ called up the first two competitors.
/He is one bad liar and I hate liars…/ Bryan growled, also turning to the dish.
/No fucking kidding…/
"3…2…1… Bakoten Shoot!"
The match against Takao and Lee lasted for minutes before Takao used his special attack and Seiryu sent Galeon out of the dish.
"And Takao wins one for the Blade Breakers! Next up is Mariah from the White Tigers and, by a last minute change of plans, Hiwatari Kai from the Blade Breakers!"
"Kai?"
Yuriy heard bones crack beside him. He turned his head to the old man beside him. Gin-Li had his fists clenched so tight, his knuckles were turning white. Yuriy looked up to his face. He could tell he was forcing himself to keep a straight face, but he could see the anger written in his eyes.
/Why is Kai fighting this match? Isn't it Reis'/
Yuriy nodded
/Maybe Kai is trying to protect him. They did just get together earlier today…/
/True…/
-Flashback-
"Rei, I have a question I'd like to ask you…"
Rei turned to the Russian after finishing slipping his sock on.
"Yeah?"
He took a deep breath.
"Who is it that you had an infatuation with?"
He cursed himself for his nosiness. But he just to know. It had been biting at him since yesterday.
Rei blushed and seemed to think for a minute.
"You said you're Gay right?" he asked, hopeful.
He nodded.
'Why would he ask me that? Is it a guy?'
"Well…"
He stopped… seemingly scared to tell the answer.
"You…" he whispered
"M… Me?" Kai's heart skipped a beat.
'He… loved me? Does he still? Why do I feel like this? I can't like him back can I? Like hell…'
Rei stood waiting for a rejection that never came. He felt strong arms circle around him.
"Do you… still?" Kai asked hesitantly
He nodded, wordless by the action.
He slowly wrapped his arms around Kai back, returning the hug.
After a minute, they broke away.
"So… Does this mean we're together?" Rei asked.
Kai chuckled and nodded.
"I've… never really heard you laugh a real laugh, it's… nice, you should do it more."
Kai, gently and hesitantly kissed him on the lips, just a gentle brushing.
Rei blushed slightly at the action.
"Just for you…"
Out side the door, Yuriy turned to his lover with a smug smirk on his face.
"Hand it over Bry…"
He grumbling and handed the four coins over to his lover.
"I told you Kai wasn't that dence…"
Bryan was starting to think he should stop betting. He always lost. Especially to his lover.
-End FlashBack-
/Kai wouldn't take Rei out of a match unless he had a good reason though, come on…/ Yuriy said just as Kai launched.
Bryan nodded and followed his lover up the stairs, then down to the door in the locker room that would take him to the Blade Breaker locker room and into the area with the dish.
"Rei?"
The remainder of the team left in the seats, turned to the two intruding Russians.
"How did you two get down here?" Kenny asked, completely shocked at the two people standing beside them
Yuriy pointed behind him at the door.
"The guards…" Max stuttered
"They… kindly, 'let' us in…" Bryan muttered.
"My foot…" Rei muttered
"Why is Kai blading?"
"We don't know, when Rei's turn came up, Kai stepped up and, like DJ said, it was a last minute thing. We didn't know about it…" Kenny explained.
"It's just like Kai to leave everyone out of the loop…" Takao and Dizzy muttered.
Yuriy and Bryan exchanged looks before looking accusingly at Rei.
"I'm hungry you guys, I'll be back in a minute," Rei excused and started toward the doors.
His two Russian friends followed him.
"You know why Kai is blading?" Bryan asked
"Yeah…"
He explained what his grandfather had said, filling Yuriy in on what had happened after he left.
"That God damn Bastard! I'll kill him!" Yuriy said and punched a wall beside him. It crumbled under his fist.
"I can understand were your thoughts come from… Either you have the chance of loosing the whole tournament… or you loose Byakko…"
"Oh! Suzaku is going to feel that blow in the morning… Kai doesn't seem to be blading his best today…"
Reis' eyes widened along with other two.
"Is Kai getting his ass kicked by the Pink Powder Puff Princess Reject from He—"
"Bryan! She is still my friend!" Rei hissed and glared.
Yuriy snickered at the bewildered look on his lovers' face.
"Come on!"
Rei ran toward the main dish again, the two Russians not far behind.
"Kai! Get back in the game!"
Kai turned to the Chinese blader catching his breath. With a nod, he turned back to the stadium and Suzaku straightened up.
"Do you love him Kai?" Mariah whispered, so no one but Kai, not even DJ could hear.
Her head was hung.
He nodded.
"Then…"
Her head popped up, determination in her eyes.
"Prove to me… Prove to me that you're worthy of him! Galux! Galaxy Bites Attack!"
Kai nodded with a smirk before calling out his guardian spirit.
"Suzaku! Flaming Meteor Shower!"
The two bit beasts collided surrounding Kai, Mariah and the two spirits in smoke.
When the smoke cleared. Only one blue and red BeyBlade was left spinning, even though it's owner was completely exhausted.
"And the Winner is Kai! This is over! The Chinese tournament is over! The Blade Breakers take it again!"
The crowd cheered! Sending calls of all kind to the blader.
"Rei, look up there." Yuriy whispered and nodded his head toward where he had been sitting.
Rei looked up to the stands to see Gin-Li stand and storm off in a huff.
"That dude looks sooo angry. Think he was cheering for the White Tigers?" Takao asked, also seeing him storm off.
"May be Takao… May be…"
"Kai!"
As he was walking off he turned to the voice. He was then jumped by the female White Tiger, knocking the air out of him.
"You better take care of Rei-Rei, Kai. If you break his heart… I swear I'll break your neck." She growled/whispered.
She stood up and shook his hand.
"Great match Kai! You were great!"
He nodded, still shocked.
"Mood swings much..." He muttered quietly after she left.
"Kai!"
He walked down the stairs.
"You did it Kai!" (Max)
"Nice Job Kai!" (Takao)
"Well done!" (Kenny)
"I can't believe you almost got you're ass kicked by Mara—"
"Bryan!" (Yuriy and Rei)
The two smacked him in the head with an annoyed look.
--
The remaining people laughed at little at the scene. All but Kai, though he had broken into a smirk.
