Okay! This be Chapter four of my story. So I hope you guys enjoy!
F.Y.I …
"Делать ты говорить Русский Kai?" means, "Do you still speak Russian Kai?"
"Да Я делать. Почему?" means, "Yes I do. Why?"
Arrival in China
"Okay everyone here is your ticket. We have to transfer off of this plane to another plane in Hong Kong so I will give you your other tickets there," Rayne said taking the tickets out of the inside pocket in her trench coat and giving one to everyone.
"We aren't babies, why don't you just give us our tickets now?" Tyson retorted.
"I beg to differ," Kai said as he boarded the plane soon followed by everyone else. Rayne sat beside Kai, Tyson and Kenny sat beside each other, and Max and Mr. Dickinson sat beside each other.
"So… have any of you guys been to China before?" Tyson asked.
"I have," Rayne answered, "quite a few times. I've traveled everywhere with the Jurgens."
"Can you speak Chinese?" Kenny asked.
"Yep. I can also speak French, Greek, Italian, German, Russian, Spanish, Hungarian, Portuguese, Swedish, Dutch, Polish, Celtic, and I can understand Irish and Scottish people" she replied with a smirk
"How do you know so many languages?" Max asked.
"The Jurgens have friends everywhere and they come and visit and its either learn the language or be totally lost and confused at what they're saying. Robert and I have friends in France, Italy, and Scotland and we all beybladed with each other but we were never a team because they're all to hot headed to have to rely on each other. It's quite sad really."
"I see. Did you enjoy traveling?" Tyson asked.
"Yes. I love going to different places, it makes life so much more enjoyable," she replied.
"I wish I could travel more," Max said. Rayne smirked and promptly fell asleep.
Dream
Rayne walked down the old familiar corridor of the Jurgens Castle and saw Johnny. As she got closer Johnny slowly turned into the five year old Kai.
"Come here," Kai said, "I want to show you something." And then the familiar corridor of the Jurgens Castle turned into the glass window of the abbey. The five-year-old Kai took her hand and pulled her through the glass. Then, just like the first time, he launched black Dranzer and destroyed everything. But instead of Mara being trapped underneath all of the rubble it was her. Then just as she thought she was going to die someone grabbed her shoulder and pulled her out…
End of Dream
Rayne woke up with a start and looked over at Kai whom had his eyes closed and had his arms across his chest. What was that dream about? Did Mara really die? Did she get saved? She must have died. There's no way that she could have survived that!
"Rayne are you okay?" Tyson asked breaking her out of her trance.
"Uh, yeah I'm fine. Are we almost there Mr. Dickinson?"
"Yes," he replied.
The plane landed in Hong Kong but because of air trouble they would have to stay there. The Blade Breakers took a taxi to a hotel. When they got there, Rayne showed the boys where their room was and she explained that her room was the one beside it; the adjoining room. Rayne made herself comfortable and opened up the door between the rooms and laughed at Tyson and Max because they were building a pillow fort. She noticed that Kai wasn't joining in. Figures. She thought, Kai never really liked that kind of stuff. What a stiff.
"So. You guys ready to go get dinner?" Rayne asked.
"FOOOOOOD!" Tyson yelled and ran out of the room towards the restaurant. They all met up with Tyson, including Mr. Dickinson, and ordered their dinner. They all chatted a bit, except for Kai of course.
"Делать ты говорить Русский Kai?"
"Да Я делать. Почему?"
"Just wondering," Rayne replied.
At the end of their dinner, Ray asked, "Anyone want some tea?"
"Why of course Ray…Ray!" Tyson said, "I didn't even know you were here!"
"You have to pay more attention to your waiters. Hope you leave me a nice tip!"
Everyone laughed.
Mr. Dickinson then sat down to explain to everyone how the tournament worked.
"You have three bladers and two of them have to win or else you get eliminated."
"So. If I win all of my match ups and these brats loose then we don't move to the next round?" Kai asked.
"Exactly…except for the brat part," Mr Dickinson replied.
"Well I'm not going to stay here and baby sit," Kai said as he got up and left.
"Kai, wait!" Rayne yelled and ran after him, "Kai! Wait!"
Kai turned around. "Why should I?" He asked. "I am not going to sit around and baby sit these kids!"
"They need a leader Kai. And you should give them more credit, they wouldn't be here if they couldn't do it!" She retorted.
Kai just grunted and walked off.
"Fine then! Be that way!" She yelled at him. "I'll just go shopping." So she walked down the street and found a little jewellery shop and walked in and browsed a bit and then found the most beautiful silver necklaces; one had a crimson phoenix on it and the other had a silver wolf on it. She bought both of them and put on the one with the phoenix. She got a little hungry so she went and bought an ice cream. I miss Robert. He was a bloody ice cream FIEND…Wait…Did I just say that I miss Robert? That is insane! Well this is the first time that I've been anywhere without Enrique, Robert, Oliver, or Johnny. Oh well.
"Well. I better go look for Kai," she said to herself. She turned into an alley and she saw two guys standing there they looked like they were going to fight! They were talking really softly but Rayne swore she could hear her name. They got into a fistfight and then the smaller one took out a gun and killed the bigger one! Rayne turned and ran away and down another alley. She turned the corner and ran into some bigger guys, still a little shaken at what she had seen.
"Well. Look what we have here," The first guy said, "What is a pretty little thing like you doing down here?"
"Looking for someone," She said slowly and quietly.
"Well you wont be finding that person," The second guy said and slammed her onto the wall. Rayne just looked at him and brought her knee up and sacked him. The second guy swung at her face and she took the hit. He tried to hit her again but she dodged that one and punched him in the stomach and tried to run but another guy threw her to the ground and was just about to punch her when he yelped in pain and fell to the side of her and she looked up and saw a girl with pink hair. The pink haired girl had a cat like appearance and held out her hand and pulled her up. The first and second guy stood up and they ran and hid in a store.
"Thank you… what's your name?" Rayne asked.
"Mariah," the pink haired girl replied. "Who are you?"
"Oh. I'm Rayne Siegel."
"Where are you from?"
"Germany. But I came here from Japan with the blade breakers."
"Oh yeah. You guys going to compete in the Asian Tournament?"
"Yes we are, but our team leader doesn't have much faith in his team. It's quite sad really."
"That does sound sad."
"Mariah. Before I ran into those guys," Rayne said as they started walking towards the hotel, "I saw one guy shoot another guy."
"Really? Where?" Mariah said astonished.
"I can't remember. It was somewhere over there," She said and pointed towards and alley.
Mariah was silent. The two girls arrived at the hotel and they bid each other goodbye and Rayne walked up to her room and saw the blade breakers waiting for her.
"Kai. You came back!" She said excitedly.
"Rayne! Your lip is bleeding! And you have a black eye!" Tyson screeched.
"I do?" Rayne asked and then wiped her lip and sure enough it was bleeding.
"What happened?" Kai asked.
"I got into a fight and then this girl named Mariah came and helped me escape," she replied bluntly. "But don't worry about me, I've been into a lot of fights. I can take care of myself! So. Where were you guys?"
They then told her the story of meeting the White Tigers, which indecently happen to be Ray's old team and then Mariah embarrassing Kai. Which made Rayne giggle a bit.
Rayne didn't want to upset them by telling them about the shooting.
Later that night Kai was standing on the balcony while the other members of the team were playing in their pillow fort. Rayne walked out onto the balcony.
"Kai?" she asked.
"Yes," he replied.
"I have to tell you something."
"Go on."
"Today when I was out I ran into an alley and I saw a man kill another man and I think I heard my name. I don't know thought. Maybe I'm just being paranoid."
Kai grunted which made Rayne roll her eyes. "Thanks Kai, you're a great help," she said with sarcasm dripping in her voice.
"Well, what am I supposed to tell you? Am I supposed to say that everything is going to be all right? I don't have anymore of a clue than you do," Kai said slightly annoyed. Rayne looked down at her feet in embarrassment. There was a long silence and then Kenny came out to ask them something.
"What do you want Kenny?" Kai asked.
"I just came out here to tell you that we need to get up at 8:00am tomorrow morning if we want to make our plane," he replied.
"Thank you Kenny," Rayne said. Kenny nodded and walked back into the room and closed the door.
Rayne turned back to Kai and was about to say something when he looked at her and said, "your lip is bleeding again," and then went back inside. Rayne sighed and followed him in. Rayne decided that she was going to go to bed. 'But first,' she thought to herself, 'I'm going to have to get my pillows back.'
"Tyson. Max. I need my pillows," Rayne said.
"Uhm…What ones are yours?" Max asked.
"The purple ones," Rayne replied while rolling her eyes. Max and Tyson took down their fort and gave her, her pillows back. "Thanks," She said and walked into her room and closed the door. She changed into her Pjama's, brushed her teeth, set her alarm clock, and then went to bed.
Rayne woke up to the sound of her alarm clock and turned it off. She then went and took a shower and put her clothes on. She went over to the door and knocked on it and Kenny opened it up.
"Top of the marnin' to yea," Rayne said cheerfully.
"Good morning," Kenny said. It looked like everyone was up except for Tyson.
"Why isn't he up?" Rayne asked.
"Tyson isn't a morning person," Max said.
"Oh. Well maybe this will work," Rayne said. She went up to him and yelled in his ear, "FIRE!" Tyson then fell out of bed and was wide-awake. Everyone, except Kai, started laughing. "Okay, you need to get ready now," Rayne said trying to calm down. Rayne walked out of the room and packed up all of her stuff, told the boys that she was going to be waiting for them in the lobby, and then went down to the lobby.
Kai was the first one down
"How's your lip and eye?" Kai asked.
"They're fine. My eye just hurts a little," she replied. "Don't tell Mr. Dickinson that I got into a fight, or about the shooting. Tell him that I fell or something."
"Okay? Why?" Kai asked.
"Because then he wont let me out of his sight. No offence, but he's kind of creepy."
"What do you mean?"
"I keep getting this weird feeling that he's looking at me, if you know what I mean."
Kai grunted and looked away, indicating that what Rayne was saying was utterly retarded. Soon everyone else came down to the lobby with their stuff all ready to go. They promptly got into their limo to get to the airport and boarded the plane.
When they got off of the plane they took a bus and went to the beyblade tournament place and registered. Then they went to their hotel, it was an old hotel made of stone. They all picked a bed, Rayne by the wall Kai next to her, then Ray, Max, Tyson and Kenny.
"So. What do you guys wanna do?" Rayne asked.
"I think that we should train, we start the tournament tomorrow," Kai said. Everyone agreed. When they got out there they saw that the White Tigers had already started training.
"Well, well, well," Lee said, "Looks like the Blade Breakers want the training area. Well we got here first."
"Blade yea for it," Rayne said. Everyone looked at Rayne. Is she serious? Mariah thought.
"I'll battle you," Mariah said, "If I win we get to practice. If you win you get to practice."
"That was the general idea. Out of three or one?" Rayne asked.
"Three."
"Okay."
Tyson shouted, "3…2…1…LET IT RIIIIP!" Mariah and Rayne both let launched their beyblades and they circled the dish. Their beyblades met a few times and then Mariah called out her bit beast Galux and ordered the cat scratch attack, but Pholan dodged it and smashed Galux out of the dish. They picked up their beyblades and launched again. Their beyblades met at once and Mariah called out Galux again and ordered the cat scratch attack, which Pholan met with a wolf fang attack, but Pholan was a little slow and got knocked out of the dish.
"We're tied Mariah, I hope you know that I haven't even tapped into Pholan's power yet. You don't even know what she looks like," Rayne said to Mariah as she picked up her blade.
"You're bluffing, you know that I'm going to beat you. You're just trying to psych me out!" Mariah yelled back.
"We'll see," was all that Rayne said as they launched their beyblades one more time. Mariah immediately called out Galux and started to attack Pholan and it looked like Rayne was going to loose.
"Ha! I knew you were bluffing!" Mariah said with pride.
"Oh yeah? We'll get ready for Pholan's arrival! PHOLAN! WOLF STORM ATTACK!" The great wolf bit-beast Pholan shot out of Rayne's beyblade and stood in all her glory, she was huge about 15 times the size of Galux.
"You…weren't…bluffing," Mariah said. "Galux Cat scratch attack!" Everyone stood in awe as the bit-beasts came together with a big bang. When the smoke and snow cleared Rayne's blade was still spinning with a lot of momentum, but Mariah's blade was knocked right out of the dish. Rayne called Pholan back and said,
"I guess we get to train today." She turned to the Blade Breakers and told them to pair up and go to a dish. She put Pholan back into the breast pocket of her trench coat and sat down beside the chief. They practiced until dinner time with Rayne shouting out tips along the way.
Tyson started to complain about how hungry he was so everyone decided that they would stop training and eat. So they decided that they were going to order fried noodles. Tyson ate with gusto and Rayne was flabbergasted at how much this boy could put away.
"Tyson! We are trying to entertain a lady here," Ray said as Rayne rolled her eyes. Tyson looked up and swallowed smiled at Rayne and then went back to eating. After dinner everyone decided that they'd go to bed to get ready for the next day.
Rayne tossed and turned but she couldn't sleep. She turned over and noticed that Kai was just lying there with his hands under his head looking up at the ceiling. "Kai…are you okay?" She asked
"If you must know I'm thinking about tomorrow," Kai said rolling his eyes. After a long silence Kai decided that he'd spare Rayne this one moment of humiliation and asked, "what about you? You keep tossing and turning."
"I was just thinking about how I beat Mariah. I mean, she kind of saved me and I go and humiliate her."
Kai sighed and mumbled, "why did I even ask."
"What was that?"
"She asked for it, now try and go back to sleep," Kai said and rolled over.
"You think so?" Rayne turned on her side and leaned on her elbow with her long black hair over the right side of her.
"Yes," Kai said with exhasberation in his voice, "now go to sleep."
"Fine!" Rayne made a face, rolled over and went to sleep.
They all slept and dreamed about the next day.
That was kind of long. But anyway, please R&R okay? Bye!
