Normal POV at Bladebreakers hotel
"What was that all about?" Ray asked when they returned to the room he and Kai were sharing. He had noticed Kai staring at Karen while the others were staring at the guy puking (how can they stand it), but thought nothing of it then.
Kai just walked towards the window and looked at the scenery outside. He was thinking about what Karen had told him.
flashback
:Who is he:
:Geez, right to the point, huh? Alright he's my adoptive father:
end flashback
-What the hell does she mean. If he is her adoptive father, he has no right to treat her like that. No even the parents can treat a child like that- Kai thought, frowning.
"Well?..." Ray asked, making Kai turn and look at him.
"We have to go," Kai plainly said and left, leaving Ray hanging.
"Okay," Ray followed, confused.
In a two-story house
In Karen's Room
"And STAY in there, FUCKING BITCH!" The door was kicked open and Karen was thrown in. "That'll teach you to follow directions!" Victor yelled as he slammed the door.
Karen limped over towards the broken wardrobe and took out a first aid kit from her suitcase.
Karen's POV
"Fucking bastard," I muttered, putting on the anesthetic on the my ankle. After bandaging it, I placed an ice pack on my already bruised cheek.
:Mistress, shall I heal you:
-No, Lumbriel. The bastard'll know I have you when he sees me all healed up. Besides, he thinks I'm his fucking trophy 'cuz he won't let anyone touch me-
:But mistress, the match:
"THE MATCH!" How could I be so stupid? I have to meet Tyson.
-Lumbriel, what time is it-
:5 minutes 'till midnight:
"SHIT!" I had to hide this shit first and then leave as quietly as I can.
Normal POV
After putting away the first aid kit and making sure the suitcase was well hidden, Karen opened and jumped out the second story window, landing on her feet. Ignoring the fact that she had hurt her ankle, she listened for any sound. Karen was disgusted to hear Victor and his girlfriend... a-hem "playing" on the kitchen table.
-Fucking perverts. Never gonna eat at that table again- Karen thought as she jumped the house fence and ran to the warehouse where Tyson was supposed to meet her. She ignored the fact that her ankle was in immense pain.
meanwhile at the warehouse
"She's late," Hilary said, looking at watch.
"She'll be here," Kai said, making Hilary jump.
"How do you know?" Kenny asked.
Kai ignored him.
"She's here!" Max called looking down the street.
"Finally, we can start the battle now," Tyson said. "Hey, Karen, you're late"
"Couldn't get out," Karen said, her face in the shadows.
-Something's wrong.- Kai thought, looking at her,
"Let's start already," Tyson whined.
"What, can't wait to lose"
"You wish"
"Alright, then. Follow me"
Karen turned to the alley next to the warehouse.
"Wait!" Karen turned to see Hilary.
"Who the hell are you"
"My name is Hilary, thank you very much. I can't go in there! It's dirty and filthy and"
"Look, I don't give a rat's ass if you don't want to get dirty, okay. So, if you wanna stay out here, fine by me. I'd rather get a little dirty than get kidnapped by some drunk freak"
Karen turned around and went through the broken fence, leaving behind a shocked Hilary and Bladebreakers. Kai, being the first to recover, followed close behind. He noticed she was limping.
-Why is she limping?- Kai thought.
:Don't know. I asked her bitbeast but no answer:
:Dranzer, it would be most appreciated if you stop talking about my mistress behind her back. You also, master Kai:
"Why don't you all shut up." Kai jumped mentally.
:Yes, mistress:
"Well, someone's certainly bitchy, tonight" Kai said, smircking.
"Are you calling me a bitch?" Karen said, stepping into the light that was connected to the wall.
"Um, Karen, what happened to your face?" Ray asked. He had evidently caught up with Karen and Kai.
"None of your business. We're here. Where are the others"
"Helping Tyson go through the fence"
Karen laughed.
"We'd better wait for them then." She sat on the floor, next to the warehouse door.
Kai's POV
-What the hell... why the fuck does she have a bruise on her cheek? I'll bet it was that guy. What's his name-
:Victor:
-Who are you-
:Lumbriel:
-Karen's bitbeast-
:Yes. I have been blocked out by her. Something must be troubling her mind. You must do something for my mistress, Master Kai. You and the Bladebreakers:
-Why should I-
:Because you love her, Kai:
-Dranzer zip it with that bull crap. I do not love her- (hears Lumbriel giggling) -What are you laughing at-
:Nothing, Master Kai. But I am serious about my mistress. She needs to get away from victor or... lowers voice I fear the worst:
-What do you mean? Lumbriel-
:She left, Kai. Your girlfriend-to-be is talking to her:
-She is NOT my girlfriend, Dranzer-
Normal POV
"Kai! KAI!"
"What"
"Man, I swear. For a minute there, I thought you died on the spot," Tyson said. Kai stared at him.
Boy, was Tyson a looker. His clothes were ripped and he was putting on his hat. His face was covered with dirt and was also tear-strained. It was quite a sight. Ray and Karen were trying their hardest not to laugh.
"Uh, Karen what hap-..." Max started.
"Okay, guys. Let's go," Karen ignored Max and opened the door that led to the warehouse. She went up to a beydish that was in the middle.
"Alright, Tyson. Ready to lose"
"In your dreams"
-You ready, Lumbriel-
:Yes, I am, mistress:
"3-2-1 Let-It-Rip!" Max announced, starting the battle.
"Go Dragoon. Hyper Tornado Attack"
-Dodge it. Use Flaming Ice Arrows-
No sooner had Karen attacked that Tyson's blade flew out of the dish.
"Nice battle, but if I were you, I wouldn't attack so suddenly. Gives the opponent a chance to dodge"
Tyson just stared, not believing that he had lost, and to a girl at that.
"Uh, Tyson?"Karen waved her hand in front of his face.
"I-I lost? NO"
"Chill Tys, it's not like it's the end of the world," Max said.
"Here Tyson," Karen handed Tyson his blade.
"I WANT A REMATCH"
"Sorry, dude, but I got school later"
"That was awesome. I have never seen such power, except in Kai's blade," Kenny said, looking at his computer.
"I WANT A REMATCH"
Karen ignored Tyson. "Thanks. I practice when I get the chance, It's pretty rare though. You hardly get to see me practice. I just don't have enough time"
"Then how did you blade get so strong?" Max asked.
"Don't know"
"I...WANT...A...REMATCH!"
"God damn it Tyson,she doesn't want one, so just hut the fuck up!" Kai yelled, apparantly irritated at Tyson's refusal to accept that he lost.
"Don't worry Tyson, you'll get your rematch someday," Karen said, staring fiercely at Kai.
"O-kay. Well it seems to me that we should all be going, shouldn't we? I mean, don't we have school later as well?" Hilary asked the group, breaking the tension.
"Yeah, we should go, guys. We all know who won't wake up in the morning," Kanny said, looking at Tyson.
"What school do you go to, Karen?" Max asked.
"It's a public high school. Terra High School"
"Oh, where going t-...," Tyson started. Ray interrupted, cutting Tyson off, "That's a nice name. It it nice there?" As Karen explained, Ray whispered to Max, Hilary, Tyson, and Kenny, "We'll surprise her when she finds out we're going there, too." Kai overheard, even though he didn't care. Karen, in the meantime said, "(sarcastically) Oh yeah, very nice. (mutters) If everyone likes you"
"Excuse me?" Hilary asks.
"You're excused," Karen said rudely.
"I meant 'what did you say'," Hilary tells Karen, annoyed. -God, is this girl stupid or what-
"I know what you meant," Karen snaps. "Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go"
Karen turned and left, leaving the Bladebreakers alone in the warehouse.
"What's wrong with h-Kai where are you going?" Tyson asked, apparantly confused.
"Look if you wanna sleep here fine go ahead, but I'm going to the hotel," Kai snaps.
"Soupuss," Tyson says uder his breath.
"IDIOT!" Kai yelled, scaring Tyson half to death.
outside the warehouse
"How'd he do that?" Tyson asks for the third time.
"Dranzer told him," Ray said, snickering as Hilary and Kenny try to pull Tyson through the fence.
Max laughs as Hilary and Keny give one final pull and get Tyson through, "Tyson, you're a mess"
somewhere else
"School in the morning... not good... everyone'll be there... have to go to auditorium in the morning... FUCK!" Karen muttered as she turned a corner, evidently not towards her house.
"Talking to yourself is the first sign that your going crazy, you know," Kai said, coming out of the shadows, smircking.
Karen smircked as well, "Well, then I wouldn't be crazy now, would I? After all, you were listening, weren't you, stalker"
"Hahaha, I'm no stalker"
"Oh, so you just happened to bump into me, when I am nowhere near your hotel"
Kai was silent.
Karen turned. "That's what I th"
"Wait," Kai grabbved her hand. Karen winced.
"Don't touch me," Karen hissed, trying to pry her hand from his. -God, he is strong. Cute, too. Wait what am I saying?- "Let me go. You're hurting me"
"Not until you answer my question," he loosened his grip a little, "what happened to your parents?" Karen stopped trying to rip her hand from his grasp and looked down. She mumbled something.
"What"
"I said they're dead,alright. Now let me go"
"What happened"
"Car crash. There. You happy? I answered your stupid question. Now let me GO!" With that said, Karen yanked her already bleeding hand and ran off, leaving Kai there, stunned.
Wacko: There you have it. A new chappie. Now if you excuse me, I must hide. (hides under the computer)
Karen: Alright, where is she? (looks around)
Reviewers: Under the computer
Wacko: Gulp Karen: Aha I got you
Wacko: AHHHHH! NOOOO!
Karen: Chill, I was only joking.
Wacko: Your were. Oh, thank goodness.
Karen: Just kidding. (gangs up on Wacko)
Wacko: WHAT! That's it. If you beat me up, I'll... I'll.
Karen:You'll what?
Wacko: (smircks) I'll make it a TysonOC story.
Karen: WHAT! NOOOOOO!
Wacko: Hehehe
