Images flashed, running one by one, crossing my eyes, my battle with max, the defeat, the grey haired boy, blindness, blood, and hospital. My heart fell. It stopped. One beat went missing, then two, and three. Then I felt it functioning again. Accelerating at full speed. I felt it drum in my ear, shattering my ear drum and for a second I thought it was his heart pounding in my ear. My breathing had no particular order, I exhaled then inhaled and in hailed one more time then exhaling the breath out. It was set to random. It was quite. I could tell he had the same reaction, after all, it's not pleasant meeting someone who you had ruined their life. I was scared, very scared. I felt that my heart would literally cause my eardrum to explode. I ran to my room…slammed the door shut.
I still could not breath properly, I chocked on my own breath. I couldn't breathe! I was trying hard but the air wouldn't come inside! I kicked and hit the door, gasping for help. And help was on the way... I thought I saw Tyson; my vision was blurred at the moment. He ran to my and pushed down at my stomach causing the trapped air to escape. I gasped the air, soon began to cough like a maniac. I still couldn't breathe properly, but it was more organized. I was extremely dizzy; everything was twirling and turning around me. Then I saw him again, we stared at each other for long. Scared. Blondie said that they should just give me some time to rest and tiring to get what the hell just happened from Kai. Kai…his name was….Kai.
I sat on my bed, trying to understand what just happened….HE was Kai! HE was the missing member??? I slowly waved my hand close to my left eye….dark as it has been since that day. You probably got the background of the story behind my blindness…if you want to know more read this paragraph, if you don't then simply skip it….
After my loss to Blondie, I trained myself to death. At times I trained so hard my fingers would bleed and my nails would stay blue for days. Three blocks away was what a lot of kids in my neighborhood would consider a haunted house, it was really an old apartment which was never built completely. That was where I would always train my blading skills. On a Saturday I would stay there all day. One day I went there to get on with my training, there was an intruder, it was….Kai. I could tell he wanted to practice as bad as I did, maybe even worse. He was ripping his arm out while releasing his beyblade with so much force, the beyblade flew hitting the wall so hard it drilled the wall then sprung back to his hand, forming cuts on his gloves. He continued doing this, adding an armada after every rip. I stood in my place quietly, astonished by his skills. Perfect angles! Perfect pressure! Perfect!! Just perfect! But I was wrong. He ripped once more, and I wish he did not, the beyblade went on the wrong direction bouncing from wall to wall, and he followed its crazy movements amazed by the speed of that blade! The beyblade kept on bouncing till it came to my direction. I was paralyzed; I could hear it cut through the layers of air, whoosh whoosh wooosh that noise ringed in my ear. Till it had hit me….right at the eye then accelerated down causing a scar on my cheek and rested on the floor. I felt something slimy on my cheek; I was too confused about what had happened. He was staring back at me as I was staring at him, then this liquid slowly dripped, I could tell it was not sweat…for it was denser, Blood.
I was crying blood.
I slowly drifted to reality; tears were running down my cheeks. Those memories were really painful. I went to wash my face; I wanted to go out of the room. I didn't dare. Someone knocked on my door, it was not William. I peeked through the little hole in the door…The loud mouthed freak? What did he want from me? I didn't open the door; he was the least of my problems. He was as stubborn as a bull, he kept on calling me and telling me he knew I was there and I could hear him.
Eventually he was really getting on my nerves, so I decided to bear him and see what he wanted. But I felt evil…I smirked in an evil way, for he was about to hit himself to the door, to smash it open as he said…well why not have a little fun?
I waited for the perfect moment. I could feel him getting closer to the door! He was running! Wait! Not yet! Not yet!! NOW!
I opened the door and he flung to the bed and fell on the floor…on his head…that must have hurt a lot. But he did deserve it. I grinned my laugh in. holding it as hard as I could….I failed miserably…. I was laughing so hard tears started to drip out of my eyes. Then I realized he was staring at me…I cleared my throat, stood up straight.
"What do you want freak?"
"I need to…Well Kenny wants to see your beyblade."
"I'll never allow you to lay your dirty fingers on my Wolfspear"
"I won't…But Kenny will!" He broke into a dumb laugh he lit out. I ignored him.
"Please Alex"
"Alexandra" I interrupted.
"Okay ALEX-ANDRAAAA~ Kenny wants you beyblade to see how strong it is. I stared at him for a while then moved to my bed and took Wolfspear from under my pillow and headed to find Kenny leaving that freak alone. He came running after me and led the way to Kenny's. Blondie was there and so was……Daichi was staring at me, I could tell he was worried, Rey was resting, deep in sleep on his bed. Kenny turned to face me with a smile.
"Hello Alexandra" Said he. "May I examine your beyblade please?"
How can you say no to someone who talks like that? So I handed my Wolfspear.
"Be careful with it. One scratch and I will"
"Worry not" He interrupted "I shall take good care of it" Okay Shakespeare lead the way.
He slowly detached Wolfspear, I broke into a sweat.
"One scratch" I reminded him.
He just nodded, he lifted and examined the defense ring like it was a precious piece of jewelry, slowly nodded his head and typed something in his laptop. I could tell he was careful, but I wasn't sure. After he checked every single detail of my beyblade but when it came to the bit chip…no way.
I snatched it before he could lay a finger on it, there is no way anyone is touching what defines my beyblade! But he seemed to understand, and replied with a smile. He is so irritating when he smiles I swear! He put my beyblade back together and stretched it to me, I snatched it from his hand, that is the first and last time anyone lays a finger on you Wolfspear. I carefully added the Bit-Beast back, checked every single part of my beyblade…there was no scratches that were freshly made…thank God.
I glared back at them, but I avoided Kai. Once again, I did not dare.
