Foreva Friends
(Don't own Beyblade)Chapter 12-
Tyson ran, ignoring his friends' calls.
'Please be ok, please be ok' the only thing going through his mind as he ran through the hospital entrance. He stopped at the front desk, where a young brunette was typing on a computer.
"I'm looking for my grandpa, where is he?" Tyson asked, puffing slightly
"Slow down there sir, now what's your grandpa's name?" the young woman asked
"Mr Granger," Tyson answered eager to get an answer.
"Let's see now…" the woman typed the name into the computer
Just then the other four teens entered the hospital.
"Tyson!" Max called out
Tyson glanced at his friends before turning his attention to the brunette.
"Room 218, it's on the second floor. Take that elevator there and go left" she explained.
Tyson nodded, taking off into a run again. The others following close behind.
It wasn't long before they reached their destination.
Upon arriving they saw Hiro sitting outside room 218.
"Hiro!" Tyson yelled out, running up to his brother.
"Tyson…" Hiro stood up and hugged the young teen.
"How is he?" Ray asked, as the others approached the two brothers.
"The doctor is with him now; he had to be resuscitated on the way here though…" Hiro explained.
Just then the doctor came out of Gramps' room.
"How is he doctor?" Hiro asked, the others listening intently.
"We were able to stabilize him. He should be fine; he just needs to take it easy for a while. Also we're keeping him in here for a few days to monitor him and do a few more tests to make sure he is able to go home."
"Ok, thanks doctor, can we go in?" Hiro inquired
"As long as you're quiet and only a few at a time…" the doctors' pager went off "sorry I have to go" the doctor walked off.
"We should head off" Max said
"Ok, thanks a lot you guys for today" Hiro replied
"No problem, see you tomorrow" Ray smiled as the four teens left the two siblings.
----With Kai and Tala-----
Tala knocked on Voltaire's office.
"Come in" his deep voice ordered.
The two teens entered, shutting the door behind them.
"Ah, Tala, Kai, what is it that you have to report"
"We were unable to observe Tyson's or Ray's battle strategies or strengths…" Kai started
"What, You know the punishment for failure---"
"Excuse me sir, but there was an interruption. Tyson's grandfather had a heart attack and was rushed off to hospital half way through their training, Tyson and Hiro are devastated"
"So this relative is dead…" Voltaire inquired
"No sir, he's at the local hospital, they managed to stabilize him"
Kai glanced at Tala.
"Very well then, I'll let you have one more chance"
"Thank you sir" Tala replied.
Kai and Tala lest the room.
"Excellent. Boris!" Voltaire called.
"Yes sir" Boris replied
"You know what to do"
"Of course sir, consider it done."
----------
The next morning Tyson awoke to the sound of the phone ringing.
Groaning, he glanced at the clock, 7:02 it read.
'Who the hell is ringing this early' he thought to himself as he got up.
After getting changed he went out into the living room just as Hiro put down the phone.
"Who was that on the phone, Hiro?"
Hiro closed his eyes, holding back the tears that threatened to fall, before turning around.
"Hiro?..."
"Tyson that was the… hospital…" Hiro began, fighting back more tears.
"What happened, Gramps is ok isn't he... Tyson asked, tears rising to the corners of his eyes.
Hiro shook his head slowly "He's… gone, his heart… just stopped…"
Tears began to fall from Tyson's eyes as he began to shake slightly, "No… they said he was ok, you're lying…"
"Tyson…" Hiro whispered, walking towards his brother.
"No!" Tyson backed away slowly before running out the front door, almost running into Ray and Max on the way.
"TYSON!" Hiro called after him
"Hiro, what's going on?" Ray asked
Hiro sighed, signalling the two teen to come in.
Once in they all sat at the dinning table where Hiro told them what happened and why Tyson ran out.
"Don't worry Hiro, I'm sure Tyson just needs some time alone to clear his mind, he'll be ok" Max said, reassuringly
"Yeah, I guess your right"
----
Meanwhile Tyson had stopped running, now just looking at the ground as he let his feet guide the way.
Suddenly he bumped into someone.
"Hey watch it punk" the guy growled
Without looking up, Tyson kept walking.
"Hey I'm talking to you…" the guy grabbed the back of Tyson's jacket, pulling him back and turning him around, "Hey you that kind that bumped into me 8 years ago"
Tyson glanced up at the man's face, tears still falling from his eyes.
"Aww what's wrong lil baby, you lose your friends, I'll teach you a lesson for messin' with me" with that the man grabbed the front of Tyson's shirt, lifting him off the ground and pushed him against a wall.
Tyson winced as his back was slammed against the cold concrete wall.
"Aww sis I hurt the lil baby, good cause your gonna pay for what you and your lil friends did to me" the man punched Tyson in the stomach causing him to yell out in pain.
---------------
Kai looked over at his clock, 6:57 the bright numbers read.
Deciding that he wasn't going to get anymore sleep he got up and got changed before heading down stairs.
Once down he headed to the living room, where he found Tala watching tv.
"Morning Kai" Tala greeted
"Hn" Kai replied sitting on the couch furtherest away from Tala.
Tala frowned, "What's up?"
"Nothing"
"Come on Kai, I know you, and I know when there's something wrong with you, so spill it" Tala persisted
"Fine, I wanna know why you told Voltaire everything about Tyson's Grandfather yesterday"
"Well I didn't really have a choice; it was either that or we got punished for failing"
"So you decided that you'd tell him, you know what he's like, he'll make us go after them when they're at their weakest"
"Isn't that the point Kai? It sounds like your letting you feelings for Tyson get in the way of your mission"
"Damn it Tala, it's not right to hit people when they're already down, and I DO NOT have feelings for Tyson!" Kai growled out as he got up and left
"Kai, where are you going?" Tala called
"Out!" Kai replied, slamming the door behind him
Tala sighed, shaking his head "Oh Kai…"
----
Kai walked along the streets, thinking to himself about the fight he just had with Tala.
'Maybe he is right; maybe I do have some sort of feelings for Tyson. I don't know why though, I've only met him, yet it feels like I've known him for years. Arg, what's wrong with me, I can't think about it, I'm not meant to feel anyth---'
Kai was brought out of his thoughts by someone yelling out in pain. 'That sounded like Tyson'
With out thinking twice he ran in the direction he heard the yell, finding a tall, mid-aged man holding Tyson up by the front of his shirt.
"Tyson!" Kai yelled running up to them.
The man glanced over at Kai, "Oh look your lil friend has come to save you" he punched Tyson again
"Let him go, you creep" Kai warned, stopping in front of them.
"Or you'll do what exactly," the man snarled, moving his grip to around Tyson's neck "Touch me and your lil friend here gets it"
"K…ai, do…it" Tyson chocked out, opening his eyes slightly
The man turned his attention to Tyson, tightening his grasp "Shut it"
Kai took the opportunity to kick the man in the stomach, causing the man to fall to his knees. Tyson fell to the ground, coughing slightly.
Kai ran to Tyson's side, helping him sit up.
The man laughed, getting up, "Should have seen that coming, still as sneaky as you were 8 years ago I see"
Kai frowned "What are you talking about; I've never met you before."
The man smirked "So you don't remember your past huh, not that it matters, you won't remember much when I'm done with you two anyway"
Kai stood up, in front of Tyson "Leave him out of this, you've already hurt him enough"
"Oh I don't think so, but I'll deal with you first since he's not gonna be goin anywhere any time soon" the man sniggered
Kai glared dangerously at the man.
"Kai… don't, he's not… worth it" Tyson begged, getting up slowly
"Not worth it huh, I'll show you who's not worth it" the man ran towards Tyson
Kai grabbed the man punching him in the face, knocking him out.
"Come on Tyson, let's get out of here before he wakes up" Kai helped support Tyson as they left.
"Thanks Kai" Tyson replied, quietly.
Well that's chapter 12 done. I wanna thank the people that review my story; it's nice to know people actually read this. I'm sorry that I don't update regularly, but I'll try and fix that problem.
