Legendary High School
I Own Nothing
Chapter 11: Apologies
Gingka and Kyoya sit in Madoka's room in silence. Several hours have passed since she woke. Gingka works on homework and Kyoya reads a book.
"Boys?" Madoka's mother comes in. "I don't think she'll wake anymore tonight. Why don't you go home and sleep some? It's getting late." She clasps her hands in a concerned motherly way.
"Yeah, we'll leave." Kyoya stands and puts his book in his bag. Gingka packs his things and bows to the mother.
"Thank you for letting us stay this long."
"I would let you stay the night but I'm afraid we don't have enough blankets or futons for that."
"No, it's alright." Kyoya smiles slightly. "We couldn't intrude." The boys go to the door and grab their shoes. They bow and thank her parents once more before leaving.
They walk in silence the rest of the way home, until they part.
Gingka doesn't speak a word but says goodbye. As he leaves Kyoya's side, he starts thinking.
"Amano-san…why did you wake then? Why couldn't you see I was the one who waited? Kyoya had just gotten there!" Gingka sniffles and walks home sadly.
Kyoya continues on his way…thinking about when Madoka woke. He didn't have time to explain. She was out again in seconds. He wonders about Gingka. Then he starts with Masamune. He sighs and changes direction. He needs to go see his friend and apologize.
Masamune wasn't hard to find. He was at home, asleep. Food crumbs lay around him as he snores on the floor. Kyoya sighs and wraps his good arm, trying to pick up Masamune. He ends up dragging the Striker blader to his room and tosses him on the floor, which doesn't wake the blader. Kyoya makes the futon ready and rolls his friend into the bed, tucking him in. He goes back to the other room and begins cleaning it up.
As he opens the fridge to put something away, Masamune appears with demon like red eyes. "WHY ARE YOU TOUCHING MY FOOD!" He swipes the sandwich from Kyoya's hand and after waiting a moment, stuffs the whole thing in his mouth. His cheeks puff out like chipmunks and swallows it all quickly. He stumbles around for a drink and afterwards sighs. "So, what are you doing here?" He turns and leans against a drawer
"I came to apologize. I shouldn't have said what I said." Kyoya hops onto a counter and kicks his legs slightly.
"Yeah, I'm sorry too."
"We good?" Masamune tosses him a drink.
"Yeah." They share a smile. They take a drink and silences passes for a moment.
"Mado-kun?"
"She's fine. Some bruises but she's be fine."
"That's good."
Masamune yawns and looks at Kyoya. "If you wanna stay, you're welcome. Oyasumi."
"Oyasumi." (Goodnight) Kyoya watches as he leaves before finishing cleaning. He crashes on the coach and falls asleep moments later.
Darkness. It surrounds him and he has nowhere to go. He runs but it follows. He hides but it finds. He trips and it looms over him. He screams and it attacks.
Tsubasa wakes in a cold sweat, gasping for air. He clutches his chest in pain and falls out of the bed. He crawls to his balcony, opening the doors. Pain flares in his chest as he grabs the railing. It brings him to his knees, panting with wide eyes. He grunts and forces himself to stand. He couldn't give in this time.
He had to stay conscious. He hated his other self. The one that did dark things. Ever since they took his eagle…it got harder to stay awake.
The darkness twists at his insides again and he doubles over. His eyes glow with red before they fade to amber brown again. He stands and walks back into the bedroom, sliding back under the sheets.
Darkness had won. Otori, Tsubasa would sleep for a while longer…and the Power would run wild again.
"Headmaster?" Yu arrives back on the campus.
"Ah, Tendo-kun." The headmaster smiles. "How was it?"
"Got it." He pulls out Striker and spins it on his finger.
"Good. Take it to the labs." Yu nods and leaves. He pauses at an open door and stares at the moon.
A little longer. Ryuga would rise to power and prove he was the strongest. Ryuga was the one who showed Yu what beyblade was after all. Ryuga was all he had known and now, he could barely wait for Ryuga to come to his rightful place. Even if it meant destroying others….he would do it. Ryuga was worth it.
He runs it down the lab and gives it over to them. As he walks back to his room, he walks by Tsubasa's room. He hears clattering and sighs.
"Sounds like he's awake again." Yu continues on.
As Yu arrives at his toy filled room, he jumps on the stuffed animal covered bed. He snuggles into them and pulls the sheets over him. He just had to wait a little longer…
"GO SHOOT!" Ryuga shouts as he rips L-Drago. He watches it destroy all the other beys in the stadium. "Weak…" He mutters.
As Ryuga collects his bey and leaves, he starts thinking to himself.
Ryuga just wanted what the others wanted. He wanted to be the best. However, unlike the others, he was willing to do anything, ANYTHING, to be the best. Ryuga put himself through hours of training to get where he was. He had only recently gotten L-Drago and he had to finish mastering it.
Ryuga continues walking. He hears Tsubasa wake…Yu jump in bed…Headmaster talking. Ryuga heads to his room and lays on the floor. He closes his eyes. A little longer…a little loner and he'd have it down. Then he'd be the best.
Sorry guys that I didn't get this up last night. Between different things going on, I was so tired last night I was falling asleep at my desk. *looks down and chuckles* So thanks for understanding. Anyway, so this is chapter 11. I honestly don't know how long this story will go for but I have several arcs planned so it will be a while. XP See you in two weeks. BAI BAI! *throws smoke bomb. As it clears, still there* Dang it...*Throws glitter/confetti and disappears*
