CHAPTER 6: Her Mother's Daughter
"If you break or tell Kai about these rules you'll deal with us, understood?"
Receiving frenetic nods and hurried agreeing responses such as "Yes", "Crystal", "Of course", "Completely" etcetera, the wolf, whale and snake felt very pleased with themselves even if the rules they established just were very basic ones it should probably be enough to avoid any major catastrophes.
The soft click of the doorknob turning caused the three of them to cast a quick glance towards the door to see who would enter. Another old habit from the abbey, cursing themselves slightly for not paying more attention to what was going on outside the room they were in.
The door was pushed open by a large almost deadly pale hand revealing the bodies of Kai and Bryan. Being the one who opened the door, the falcon was the only person the others could see clearly as the majority of Kai was being hidden behind Bryan and the door.
As he stepped further into the room the fingers on his right hand, which had firmly gripped the bluenette's left straightened out allowing their entwined fingers to separate knowing the phoenix wouldn't feel comfortable displaying such physical contact in front of her team as well as the European bladers. Truth to be told, he wasn't perfectly comfortable showing such display of emotions either, at least not until he'd made sure that Kai had understood that they were, in fact, together. This separation of hands was quick and subtitle it was also almost completely hidden to the occupants of the room due to the thick wooden door. For one to notice this you'd had to be watching the two with the utter most attention to the two of them something the Blitzenkreig just happened to do causing Tala to grin smugly convinced that his plan had worked out the way he'd planned. Ian smiled deviously no doubt planning some sort of prank on the behalf of the two and Spencer to give an almost imperceptible nod in approval more to himself than to the two lovebirds.
The others reaction at seeing Kai's "true form" so to speak were to the majority predictable and very humorous. It seemed as even though they now knew that Kai was a girl they hadn't expected her to change in her appearance at all.
When they saw the Russian phoenix their reactions were immediate and the four male Russians in the room were having massive problems with trying not to laugh out loud and destroying their though-guy image. The female Russian however was just confused and slightly irritated by the Bladebreakers and the Majestics reactions.
Roberts yes widened to a size that would have put dinner plates to shame and managed to swipe down most of the chess pieces he'd been re-setting onto the floor. Rei, Johnny and Enrique's jaws dropped so low that Kenny probably would have been able to stand straight inside of their mouths, not that he would want to because that would just be disgusting. Said genius and the cute French greenette jaw's also dropped considerably however this was followed by a heavy blush. Tyson fainted but the reaction that made the Blitzenkreig boys to truly react was Max's. The American blonde's eyes grew wide only to be filled up with tears threatening to fall down his soft cheeks, before rushing towards the phoenix throwing his arms around her neck almost tackling the bluenette to the floor. Looking slightly bewildered, Kai hesitantly wrapped her arms around the blonde turtle who's speech was slightly muffled of emotions and because he kept his face buried into Kai's neck.
"Kai! I thought you had left!"
"Max I wouldn't do that without telling you it would be dishonourable."
"Well that has never stopped you before has it?"
"That wasn't by choice."
The Russian bluenette said glaring at the Japanese dragon, which caused him to promptly shut up. Ignoring him, she turned her focus to the turtle in her arms.
"Why did you think I'd left?"
"Rei woke up in the middle of the night, you weren't in your bed and then you didn't wake us up."
The blonde trailed off but Kai had no problem with figuring out how the blonde had come to the solution that she'd left. Throwing a glare at Tala for his "they probably wont even notice you're gone" comment through he'd caused this whole mess she was surprised to see an expression of absolute terror and panic on his face. Thinking it was because he felt guilty and didn't know how to react, even if it was en extremely odd facial expression even for Tala, she turned her attention back to the turtle. Reassuring him that she wouldn't leave without telling everyone and that he didn't have to worry.
As soon as Max had started to speak, Tala felt an increasing wave of panic and fear build up inside of him as he prayed by his whole being that the blonde wouldn't say that. But of course he did just say that. God damned Sod's law. (AN: -- Might be wrong don't flame)
He could literary feel the falcons mood go from amused to confused to murderous, swallowing hard he took a firm grip on the teens arm practically dragging him to a corner of the room. Where he hoped he could minimize the damages the last thing he needed was for Bryan to go on a killing spree (to many witnesses to take care of afterwards). Turning to face the furious falcon he spoke in a hushed tone to prevent Kai from hearing them.
"Calm down. It was in separate beds and you know damn well that Kai is too innocent to see how sharing room with them can look. After all she has always done so in the abbey right?"
"You knew?!"
"She told me last night."
This was followed by several severe curses from Bryan, fortunately he kept his voice down.
"I should kill them."
"Why? You already got the girl."
"What are you talking about?"
"Oh please, like the two of you didn't do anything else than holding hands."
The wolf said snorting, it wasn't until he saw the change of emotions in the lilac haired teens eyes he realized that he probably shouldn't have said that. Fury changed into a sadistic, slightly irritated look, something that was just as bad if you'd ask the wolf. What Tala accidentally had done was to remind Bryan of that promise he'd given himself earlier in Tala's bedroom.
"Actually we didn't, it seems as you didn't take rich boys servants into your master plan."
His voice was so chilled Tala was surprised by the fact that he didn't turn into a block of ice.
"Hehe… well what do you know. But after all no need to rush things right? You know what they say 'The ones who waits for something good never waits too long'."
Tala said nervously carefully backing away from the falcon. Deciding that he couldn't do anything worse than threatening the wolf at the moment, however unfortunate that was, the falcon started walking towards the rest of the bladers only pausing to hiss a last warning to the wolf.
"I'm not done with you by far, just you wait."
Feeling very satisfied by the fact that the redhead made sure to walk with a good meter between them falcon followed by the wolf went back to the group were Max now had calmed down to the extent that he'd separated himself from Kai and no longer were on the verge of crying.
"But why weren't you in your room?"
Hearing Max's question the redhead knew immediately that he and not Kai had to answer that question. Mostly because the phoenix wouldn't understand the conclusions the others would make but also because he knew that they still were afraid of him since the championship so they most likely wouldn't dare to say anything so blunt and rude that even Kai would understand it. A fact he would use ruthlessly if it could benefit his phoenix sister. He could of course had snapped the blond off but he, like every other person that had meet the blond turtle, were quickly captured by his innocence and an almost overwhelming urge to protect the American from every bad thing on earth, so that wasn't an option.
"She was with me."
Turning his big baby-blue eyes to Tala, the turtle remained completely impassive for a couple of seconds rendering the wolf slightly uncomfortable for some reason he couldn't figure out before Max smiled his 10,000 watt smile exclaiming a cheerfully;
"Okay!"
Unfortunately not all present bladers were as easily satisfied and they had, more importantly, dirty minds.
"What!? Kai you're sleeping with him?! He's the enemy!"
Glaring at the dragon, Tala added dirty-minded and prejudice at his mental list of the Japanese teens characteristics, which just after mere hours were rather long and unflattering.
"I'm her brother, idiot."
Thump, thump, thump, thump.
Tyson, Kenny, Johnny and Enrique fainted and the others were so shocked that they wouldn't react even if Voltaire had danced into the room wearing a pink ballerina dress declaring he had donated all his money to charity. (B/N: HAHA, good one there! XD)
After patiently waiting for the bladers to snap out of their shock respectively waking up and collecting themselves, Spencer explained the wolf and phoenix's siblings-relation more thoroughly. The reason that this task fell onto the whale was fairly simple none of Tala, Bryan or Ian had any intention to explain this to them as they enjoyed the bladers confusion and all had slightly sadistic personality-traits and Kai was, for obvious reasons, not an option.
When Spencer had carried out his short yet comprehensive explanation all of the bladers understood Tala and Kai's relation to each other. Well except Tyson but after several attempts to explain this from Rei, Kenny, Max heck even Johnny made a try although it contained more insults towards the Japanese's intelligence or rather the lack off than an actual explanation. When the dragon still didn't understand they decided not to bother with it resulting in the fact that Tyson were under the firm believe that Tala and Kai had the same parents.
After breakfast all thirteen teens were more or less sprawled out over the room as during breakfast it had been decided that practice would be cancelled today. The main reason being that the chance to get some actual training done were very close to zero but of course that had very little to do with why Kai didn't fight this with all her might and main she was looking forward to a day of catching up with her friends. She was now sitting in a corner sofa chatting aimlessly with the four other Russians with a small almost invincible pink blush on her cheeks due to the fact that Bryan, who sat to her right, casually had flung his arms over the back of the sofa hence also across Kai's shoulders. She probably would have been able to handle that if it hadn't been for the fact that the fingertips of Bryans hand were resting on her shoulder, occasionally moving in small movements very similar to soft, butterfly caresses.
"What do you say Casanova?"
"Uh what?"
"You haven't been hearing a word of what we've said, have you?"
"Of course I have."
"Pease, Enri, you've been spacing out all morning just tell us or I'll poison your birthday cake."
"Nice one, Oliver."
"Thank you Johnny. So now tell us."
"Um well its just Kai…"
"Is a girl yes we know and she have a girl's body yes we know that too, even Tyson have gotten that by now."
"No I mean she reminds me of someone."
"Really who?"
"That's the think I don't know."
"Well okay we'll help you."
"We will?"
"Yes or I'll poison your birthday cake instead."
"Fine, um Lara Croft?"
"Clarie Bennet from Heroes?"
"That hot chick that works on Oliver's restaurant L'amoure?"
"Emma Duffy!"
"What?"
"You know the teen-journalist who is engaged to Mikey Way in My Chemical Romance."
"Like we could ever forget her you whined for weeks after you to broke up. What I want to know is why you're talking about her?"
"I didn't whine and it's her that Kai reminds me of."
"Rrrright, I think you need to go to a mental institution if Kai reminds you of a blue-eyed Scottish brunette.
"Not funny Johnny, but really they are so alike in their actions and other stuff."
"What? You mean not interested in you?"
"Again; not funny."
"Yeah, yeah now that you got that out off your system what do you think about…"
"I still can't believe we never suspected anything, I mean not even once!"
"Me neither and I'm the one who spent the most time with her."
"Who cares anyway, she's still the same sourpuss as always."
"Tyson really what is your problem? Ever since you found out that Kai's a girl you've been insulting her."
"So? She betrayed us, at least now we know why."
"What are you taking about?"
"Girls can't be trusted all they do is backstabbing you."
"Tyson that is not only prejudice but a completely stupid way of seeing it."
"No, it's not I bet her mother was…"
Whatever he had been planning to say where cut short due to the fact that Kai, with a very impressive speed, had moved over to the group, grabbed Tyson by the throat and flung him against the closest wall. Holding him there effortlessly with the dragons feet a good pair of centimetres above the ground ignoring the hands that almost desperately were trying to remove her one-hand grip on his throat. This despite the fact that her grip was lose and allowing him to breath freely but keeping him firmly in one place. But the reason to Tyson's struggles was most likely the bluenette Russians facial expression. The always stoic almost emotionless enigma's face was now the very epitomise of rage, with burning eyes and slightly bared teeth.
"Don't ever speak of my mother again or I'll rip out your vocal cords, you understand?"
She spoke in a normal conversation volume but her words were dripping with rage and the other occupants of the room, save the Blitzenkreig boys who remained were they where, made sure to have good distance between the enraged phoenix and themselves.
"Yes, yes!"
To emphasise his point the Japanese dragon bobbed his head up and down, or well tried since he was being held up against a wall all he managed to do was bang his head against the wall. Throwing the teen one last murderous glare the Russian tossed him aside, where he landed in a rather undignified heap, before storming out off the room.
Before she'd even fully left the room, Bryan had gotten out of the sofa to follow the phoenix. Normally he'd remain seated and let Tala comfort the lady of his heart in order to conceal his crush on the bluenette but since it now was out in the open he didn't see any reason to stay behind. The result of this was that the redhead's elbow imbedded itself into the soft fabric of the sofa instead of the side of the falcon, which was where he'd aimed.
As soon as the door had slammed shut the wolf got up from the sofa as well, casually walking over to where the dragon was still laying on the floor and grabbed him by the front of his shirt puling him up on his feet.
"The only reason you still are alive is because if we killed you Kai would blame herself."
He spoke with an icy-voice before letting go off the dragon who fell back down on the floor. Where Ian, who had snuck up next to them in the unnoticeable way only short people could manage, stuck his foot in under the Japanese teen flipping him around carelessly so that Tyson was laying on his back. Placing his boot-clad foot lightly on the bluenette's throat. (B/N: I'd do the same thing!)
"If you ever upset Kai again you will never be able to launch a Beyblade anymore for the rest of your miserable life."
Removing his foot from the dragon's throat he turned to leave but not before delivering a swift kick just below the dragon's ribs.
Bryan ran determinately down the hallway following Kai's footsteps, he had no doubt that he would catch up with her. Kai was explosive and could move faster than any of the other Russians but that speed was short lived as she soon had to slow down to simply running and since his legs were longer than her was he would reach her soon.
As he predicted, it didn't take long until he saw her, however he didn't bother wasting his breath on trying to tell her to stop. She was upset and at the moment she wasn't thinking straight, he knew she also was angry on herself for losing her temper and wanted to get away so that she could calm down. Instead he ran after her winning meter after meter on her until he was so close that he could grab her arm and make her stop. She spun around and opened her mouth, but when their eyes locked no words came out.
"Calm down, okay? We won't go back until you feel like it."
He said softly.
"Can we go outside?"
"Of course."
He released the grip he'd had on her arms and let his hand slip down and grabbed her as he started to walk towards the glass doors that was placed at the end of the hallway.
Once in the garden, Bryan followed the bluenette to a secluded part of the garden where she sunk down against a tree trunk. Despite the fact that he'd rather suffer unmentionable amounts of pain before admitting it, the falcon could see what the wolf meant by calling Kai naïve. It was obvious that she had no idea how it could look with the two of them alone, well hidden behind a large amount of bushes and trees, not that he would do anything, well at least not against her will. The lilac haired teen sat down against another tree diagonally from the phoenix.
"They won't find us here, they never goes this far into the garden."
Despite the fact that he knew that the phoenix's statement was innocent and without any second thoughts behind it the falcon couldn't help that his pulse increased slightly at her statement. As previously mentioned she was far too naïve for her own good, not to mention tempting.
Silence ensued as Kai was mentally berating herself and Bryan was desperately trying to figure out something to say, which wasn't easy as he never had been good with words. Hence why he normally acted instead of spoke but for Kai he'd at least make a try.
"I could kill him really slow and painfully you know, if you want to. The others too."
The last part he added as in afterthought remembering that some of them had been rather rude towards Kai earlier. Kai, jerked out of her self-berating by his voice, looked oddly at him causing him to evaluate his statement. He wanted the phoenix to know that he was serious and that it only would take one word from her for him to kill anyone who hurt her.
"You know, if it would make you feel better."
He gave a quick shrug of his shoulders. Kai who was still looking a bit funnily at him couldn't help the small smile that spread on her lips nor the small short laugh that erupted from her lips.
"I feel better already, thanks Bry."
"No probs, so they get to live?"
Another small laugh escaped the bluenette.
"Yes Bryan they get to live."
"Okay then."
Acting on impulse the falcon got up from his seat, moved over to the tree where the beautiful phoenix sat and sat down next to her, wrapping his arm around her shoulders pulling her against his side. The bright pink blush that developed on her cheeks almost made Bryan coo at how adorable she looked.
"Bry?"
"I hate to see you unhappy."
"I'm fine."
"That doesn't work on me and you know it."
The bluenette Russian let out a small sigh, she had known that he wouldn't go for that but at the same time she couldn't help but hope. She wasn't good with deep heart-to-heart conversations she preferred to act instead of speaking.
(AN: Anyone sees a similarity here? –cheeky grin-)
(B/N: LOL)
"I shouldn't have done that."
It was obvious that she spoke about her physical attack on Tyson and Bryan felt an almost overpowering urge kill the dragon, from what he'd seen it was him that was the one that constantly insulted Kai and he be damned if he let him continue. If Tala hadn't done anything why they came back he would, be so sure.
"He deserves much worse than what you did."
"But he couldn't know…"
She never had the chance to finish her sentence as the falcon cut her of, annoyed that she actually was defending that thing. But then again this was also one of the endearing sides of Kai that had made him fall so hard for her, her almost never-ending protectiveness towards the ones she saw as her responsibility.
"That doesn't give him the right to insult you or your mother."
"I guess it doesn't."
"I know it doesn't."
He said encouraging leaning his head to the side so that rested upon her, trying to erase the dejected, sad undertone in her voice. He frowned slightly when Kai remained in the same position as before, back against the tree and her posture straight and a bit rigid their sides were pressed together yes but only because he held her against him. The ever present small seed of doubt in his chest suddenly grew remarkably.
"If you aren't comfortable just say so and I'll move."
He said making sure to keep the pain he felt out of his voice. Hearing his voice the phoenix, who had spent all her current will power not to crawl up into Bryan's lap to receive more of his lovely comfort, snap out of her thoughts.
"But I am."
She said slightly confused to how he had drawn the conclusion that she wasn't. He lifted his head from her a bit and Kai tilted her so that she could see his face.
"Your posture says something else."
"Idon't understand."
"Your body is completely rigid."
"Oh, I didn't realise. I was just thinking."
"About?"
It was an innocent question but nonetheless it made Kai's blush darken considerably, she couldn't tell him what she really had thought of. If she did she would surely die from embarrassment and Bryan would think she was a complete nut-head, she was absolutely positive of it. But she wouldn't lie, she couldn't lie if it was something her mother had valued it had been honesty.
"I'd rather not say."
"I thought we could tell each other everything?"
She could hear the pain and disappointment in his voice and she was overcome with guilty conscience.
"We can but…"
"But?"
"But… I don't want to speak about this now, please?"
She tilted her head a bit more and looked at him with pleading eyes. That look in her eyes made whatever sensible thought in Bryan's head to disappear and he could only nod as an answer fighting his body's urge to bend down those last centimetres and cover her lips with his. Kai, who had worried that he would keep on prodding, flashed him a small smile and was about to thank him when his eyes suddenly became intense and turned into a dark green colour. It was hypnotising, she couldn't look away and to be honest with herself she didn't want to either. His eyes had had the same colour when they where in Tala's bedroom and the phoenix felt a strange expectation grew in her chest. Before he did something that he'd regret Bryan forced himself to break eye contact with the phoenix.
"Are you feeling better?"
"Yeah."
"Enough to go back?"
She paused with her answer, was she ready to do that? She would have to go back sooner or later and she had always preferred to get uncomfortable or troublesome tasks over with as soon as possible.
"Yes."
"Are you sure?"
The falcon asked a little uncertain she had paused before her answer and he didn't want her to rush into something she wasn't ready for.
"Yes I am don't worry I can handle it."
"Okay lets go."
The falcon gracefully pulled himself up from the ground and grabbed the bluenette's hand hauling her up, since she wasn't prepared for that Kai ended up falling against the falcon's chest who by reflex wrapped his other arm around her to steady her. Feeling absolutely destroyed from her own clumsiness Kai tried to extract herself from the falcon's embrace. When he didn't loosened his grip on her she peered up at him through her silver coloured bangs. He had an odd looking facial expression that she couldn't exactly place; it seemed to be somewhere between astonishment and confusion and unfocused eyes.
"Bry?"
Receiving no answer, she spoke again this time putting a bit more weight behind her words.
"Bryan?"
At least that seemed to work, his body gave a small jerk and his eyes become focused again.
"Hmm yeah?"
"Are you okay, you zoned out."
"Yeah its just you feel a lot different without your bandages."
"Oh!"
She couldn't help herself she just had to ask.
"In a good or bad way?"
"Definitely a good way, you are very soft and… huggable."
She felt her blush darken again, he thought she was huggable! She averted her eyes from his, afraid that they would give her emotions away. Sensing that she was a bit uncomfortable, Bryan released her, sliding his hands in a slow caress along her back before grabbing her hand (AN: He does that a lot doesn't he?) (B/N: Definitely.. lol) and starting to walk towards the glass doors.
They walked through the corridors in a comfortable silence, both of them enjoying the others company and Kai was also thinking about what she would do, the others would no doubt have questions. It was likely that they wouldn't dare to voice them out loud but she didn't want them to be afraid of her, more than they already were that is.
Entering the room the phoenix and falcon went straight to the three other Russians, who no doubt about it, would want to know how the bluenette phoenix was.
"Are you okay, sis?"
"Yeah."
"You're positive about it?"
"Yeah she is, I offered to kill them but she said no."
"You better keep an eye on him, sis, he might do it anyway. He hasn't beaten anyone into a pulp in almost a month."
"What about those street gangs?"
"Gone."
"Gone?"
"Yup."
"You're telling me that there isn't one single street gang in Moscow."
"And the suburbs."
Turning to Spencer, she asked him.
"Is he really serious?"
"I'm afraid he is. After a couple of encounters with Bry they seem to either dissolve or move."
"God damned cowards is what they are."
Bryan grumbled a bit under his breath. The phoenix turned towards him with a mixture of amazement and disbelieve in her eyes.
"They're telling me that you scared of every single street gang in Moscow?"
"And the suburbs."
Tala poked in, anyone could see that he was enjoying this immensely. Kai threw him an annoyed look but didn't bother to tell him to shut up, Bryan shrugged his shoulders a bit.
"Yeah I guess so."
Being at a complete loss for words the bluenette Russian couldn't do anything else but shake her head in disbelieve. The fact that one single person could clear out a whole million inhabitants city was unbelievable, and Moscow didn't have a small number of street gangs not many people dared to go outside during the evening or night; the risk of being not mugged or something worse was almost non-existent. And now she was told that Bryan had done just that, it would take some time to digest it.
(AN: The thing about street gangs in Moscow, I've just made up to fit the story, no connection to the real world what so ever) (B/N: But good none the less, I liked Tala's put-ins too.. XD)
"The cops are almost bursting with pride, they think its because of their new anti-street violence project."
Spencer said smirking, causing Kai to raise her eyebrows the Moscow police where one of most incompetent and corrupted in the world. She knew, the police had been called to the abbey countless times by some passer-by's who had seen beat up, half dead kids. They had seen the state the kids had been in but some trouble here and there had suddenly made them see well-nourished, healthy children. From her estimation Voltaire had at least a good third of the Moscow's police at his pay list.
(AN: Again I'm just making up the cops thing, no connection to the real world blah, blah…)
(B/N: Yah, don't want angry reader, or a formal Russian Police anon review.. '')
"So are you going to tell the other anything?"
A bit surprised and confused by the sudden change of subject it took a couple of seconds for Kai to understand what Spencer was asking her.
"Yes, I think they deserve to know."
"Kai don't do anything you don't want to okay? You don't have to tell them anything."
Tala said adding his five-cent's to the conversation; he knew how much it took for Kai to actually reveal the story of her mother to someone and from what he had seen, he wasn't sure if he considered them "worthy" of this knowledge.
"Tala they deserve it, they took me back after Black Dranzer and they didn't hate me for pretending to be a boy."
The wolf didn't look happy but since Kai was adamant on doing this he nodded his approval to his sister's decision.
The phoenix, closely followed by the five other Russians, walked over to where the rest of the bladers where gathered. Most of them eyed the female Russian closely trying to see if she still was in a horrible mood, but she seemed to be back to her normal emotionless-self so none of them, except Kenny, felt the urge to hide behind a piece of furniture and offer the phoenix Tyson's head nicely placed and decorated on a silver plate. (B/N: HA, you got one creative mind there.. Lol)
"Kai are you oaky?"
"I'm fine don't worry, Max."
The phoenix told the worried turtle, his question warming her heart a bit now that she knew that they all didn't hate her gut for what she had done.
"Tyson…"
She wasn't exactly sure on how and what she would say but decided to go on her intuition, at least Tala had told her that it was good.
"I apologize for what I did earlier, I lost my temper."
The dragon turned his eyes towards the phoenix and spoke angrily.
"You apologize? You…. (B/N: DOES HE EVER SHUT UP!?)
He interrupted himself when he saw the faces of Tala, Bryan and Ian even someone as dense as the dragon himself could see that right now was not a very good time to take out his anger at the phoenix. (B/N: Or any other time… jee)
"I mean its okay, it could have happened to anyone."
He said a bit uncertain glancing very indiscreetly at the Russians to see if that was what they wanted to hear. The bluenette Russian took a breath through her nose mentally preparing herself.
"It's just I'm a bit… sensitive when it comes to my mother."
At the word sensitive the four other Russians couldn't help but exchange amusing looks among each other, using the word sensitive to describe Kai's feelings when it came to her mother would be as describing the ice-age as a bit chilly. No one of the Bladebreakers or the Majestics uttered one syllable, not wanting to receive the look or treatment Kai had given Tyson.
The phoenix stuck her fingers inside the hem of her shirt and pulled out a thin golden chain with a golden locket attached to it. It was her mother's "Christmas" present to her containing a picture of her mother on one side and a picture of the two of them at the other side. Opening it and making sure to keep her fingers on the picture of both her and her mother she showed the picture to the other bladers.
"This is my mother."
Looking at the picture most of the bladers made a quick intake of breath and some of them even stepped back a couple of steps. The picture in locket showed a woman in her mid-twenties with long two coloured hair, just like Kai's, she had very beautiful, soft, feminine features but what had brought the reaction from the Bladebreakers and the Majestics wasn't the woman's beauty but her eyes. Her right eye was deep, hypnotizing purple and her left pale yellow, mush like the inside of a lemon. (B/N: The first time I misread Lemon as Demon.. o.O") (AN: O.o) Despite her other beautiful features her left eye made her at the first glance to look like something from a B-class horror movie.
"When she found out that my father and Voltaire planned on placing me in the abbey she ran away with me."
The phoenix trailed off lost in her own world and thoughts.
"What happened?"
Oliver asked timidly, afraid to enrage the phoenix but almost bursting from curiosity.
"You can only run for so long from someone as powerful as Voltaire. They found us, placed me in the abbey and killed my mother."
The Blitzenkreig boys knew that this was a very compressed, undetailed summarising of what had happened. But they were positively surprised that Kai gave them that version none of them had really wished for Kai to tell them about her mother, they didn't think that they were worthy of such amount of trust from Kai. But since this was what she had wanted to do they stood behind her as they always had done.
Taking in this the bladers realized just why Kai had reacted so strongly against Tyson, it was obvious that he would have said something rather rude and they fully understood that Kai wouldn't allow that. Max, the ever emotional of them, rushed forwards to hug Kai, his baby blue eyes filled with tears for his friend, captain and role model.
After the blond had separated himself from the phoenix and wiped the tears from his eyes and Kai had put the locket back in under her shirt a thick, an uncomfortable silence descended over the room. No one really knew what to say or do and just as the tension in the room where about to reach the breaking point, one of the Jurgen castles butlers opened the door declaring that lunch was ready. Relieved, everyone nodded and started to walk towards the dining room.
AN: Well that's all for now folks! Hope you enjoyed reading this as much as I enjoyed writing it. And Emma I hope you like it, you got to date Enrique, be a journalist and soon-to-be married to Mikey Way. Not too bad hmm? I know you're all over George now but whatever… I'm still keeping it. XP
Sorry if the Tyson/Rei/Max dialogue was bad, I had major problem with it.
Bryan: Do you have to make me all sappy and touchy feel-y?
Kai: What do you have to complain for? I'm a fricking girl!
Bryan: And a really hot one too –wiggles eyebrows-
Kai: -blushes and mutters incoherently-
Me: My story, my rules so now shoo I have to make plans.
Bryan: With what brain?
Me: Hey! Get out or I'll make you a girl in my next fic.
Bryan: -swallows hard- Eh I need to go and… practice.
To the next chapter I will need some very cheesy pick up lines and it's a plus if they are bad as well but that's not a necessity. What is important is that I can't make the next chapter without these pick up lines so if you gives me a few I'll be able to update faster.
I have now decided how the story will end and there will be two more chapters. And if you all are very nice and review I'll put some kissing in the next chapter if not well then you'll just have to wait. -evil laugh- So if you want some real Bryan/Kai action you better REVIEW!!
