Blades Will Be Drawn Chapter 2: Supernatural, A Whole Lot Of It, a beyblade fanfic

Chapter 2

"So where the hell are we going?" Tala asked, growing angrier by each step he took following Kai.

Kai shrugged slightly in regard to the younger boy's question, "I really have no idea, I just thought I'd say anything to get you out of bed. You being in bed by nine thirty is just sad."

Tala's eyes widened furiously, his hand snapping out of his pocket and gripping Kai's shoulder with a great force as he stopped him from walking any further, "You mean you got me out of the apartment to walk the streets till it was a good time for you to go back home?!" he exclaimed angrily.

"Pretty much." Kai shrugged off the other member's hand from his shoulder and kept on walking on down the street.

"And that thing about going for a drink?"

"We can still do that if you like." Kai told him, watching out of the corner of his eye as the angering red-head caught up beside him.

Tala grabbed Kai by the back of his shirt and dragged him into an alley on the side of the street they had currently been on. He pushed Kai against a wall, glaring daggers at his older, but no necessarily stronger team mate, "Why do you keep lying to get me out?" he asked.

Kai held onto Tala's shoulder firmly and spun around to hold Tala against the wall instead, "You have been trapped for all your life, that's sixteen uncomfortable years being tortured and now that you're living with me you expect me to just go on out and leave you alone inside? I can't do that to you, it isn't right or healthy." He scowled.

Tala had softened up against the wall, knowing full well that Kai wasn't about to hurt him for any reason possible, even if he did back talk like he did now, "Japan's made you soft, since when have you ever cared about being healthy or going out?"

"You're right, I don't care about my own health but when it comes to you then I'm careful and I actually care and I'm not about to watch you mess your life up."

Tala pushed Kai off of him, staring almost fragile-like but still holding a tough posture, "I'm not going to ruin anything but you don't need to push me around to do things you think are good for me."

"I'm not promising anything." Kai said coldly, turning to leave the alley way they had been arguing in.

Tala sighed and turned to follow his friend back out onto the street but one little thing stopped him. Just inches away from where he had been standing when Kai had pushed him against the wall was a dripping pipe, forming a small puddle of clear water underneath it. The strange part about it was that for some reason that puddle attracted him to it as he stared on at it, wondering why he felt so drawn to it.

Without Tala knowing, Kai walked up beside him and pretend to be interested in the puddle too before look over at the red-head, "You know, watching grass grow is more interesting than watching a puddle." He informed him, a growing smirk on his face.

Tala groaned, punched Kai in the shoulder and walked past him, "Let's go." He growled.

---At The Bar---

Two men, completely dressed in black sat down in a small room backstage, both looking on at their annoyed lead singer, "Hey, calm down Sakura, he'll be here." One man called out to her as she stared out the lone window of the room.

Sakura, the tall raven-haired girl gritted her teeth tightly and closed her eyes, "If that idiot makes us late I swear I'll…" It was most likely a very good thing that she had gotten cut off because in under a second Kyoshi opened the wooden door and stepped inside. Sakura's eyes could have had flames in them just to show how furious she was getting as she stormed up to him, "Where the hell have you been?" She whispered, hoping the other two in the room wouldn't hear.

Kyoshi clearly didn't seem phased by the girl's rudeness and just shrugged, "The night is young, I went for a walk." He answered quietly.

"With a show to perform in ten minutes? That was a smart idea now wasn't it, smart ass?"

"I got back in time didn't I?" Kyoshi shot back, raising an eyebrow at her with a smirk on his face when she didn't reply to his question. "Good. Now, you better cool off." He told her, running along her waist as he walked past her and sat back on the sofa.

Sakura shook her head, groaned loudly so all those in the room actually felt her annoyance and anger and watched as she stormed out of the room. Her storming continued up until she reached the bar, waving her hand at the bar tender who gave a short glass, most likely filled with whisky or some other form of alcohol. She gulped it down the second it arrived in front of her, she slammed it back down onto the surface in front of her and turned to walk off again.

Her path was blocked in the crowded bar as she slammed right into someone's chest, she fell back against the stool she had just gotten off and she took it as a moment to look up at her offender with the harsh look on her face never ceasing, "Watch it." Kai and Sakura yelled at each other in unison. "I think you should be more careful where you're going." The raven-haired girl shouted, getting up again and walking past him.

Sakura, now known to be the lead singer of the night's band, rolled up the sleeves of her black shirt and slipped the packet of cigarettes out of the pocket of her jeans. She let the cigarette trace through all her fingers as she fiddled with it, walking into the back room again and sitting down on the sofa between Kyoshi and the tallest male of the group. She continued to stare down at the cigarette as it past through each of her long thin fingers until she'd had enough and placed it to her lips. Just as she was about to pull out her lighter Kyoshi's hand got in front of her face and lit it with his own lighter.

Sakura put the cigarette between her two fingers, moving it away from her mouth before glancing at Kyoshi as he stared at the ceiling. Her eyes softened in a way that they hadn't for a few hours and the amount of eyeliner she always had on always made her look much tougher than she really was intending to look. "Thanks." She whispered to Kyoshi.

Kyoshi looked at her, giving her a small sweet smile and nod, knowing the girl long enough to know that a thank you was her way of say sorry for being rude. "We should get up and get this over with, shouldn't we?" Kyoshi spoke after a while.

Sakura tossed what was left of the cigarette away and looked down at her watch, "It's ten thirty so I guess we should." She agreed, also being picked up carefully off the sofa by Kyoshi.

---With Tala and Kai---

The two had settled at a table in the front, talking, drinking and certainly catching up a little. The two had been living together for over about a week now but in between Kai keeping an eye on Tala, training by himself and training the team it was hard to be able to even have a proper conversation with each other. Although, now that the Tyson had started traveling with his dad for a few weeks, and Max had gone to see his mom and Ray had gone back to his village to meet his friends he had a lot more time to spend with Tala like old times, or at least better than old times.

Once the four band members settled onto the stage, one of the two males on drums, the other as bassist, Kyoshi as guitarist and finally, Sakura as lead singer, something that most likely surprised most of the audience. The whole band all looked at each other first before the music slowly started up.

"So you were being serious about the band part." Tala muttered, staring on at two members of the band in particular. Sakura seemed familiar to him somehow but he couldn't quite tell from where. Kyoshi on the other hand, he remembered seeing in the street after looking at that puddle in the alley.

"Well it rains and it pours
When your out on your own
If I crash on the couch
Can I sleep in my clothes?
'Cause I've spent the night dancing
I'm drunk, I suppose
If it looks like I'm laughing
I'm really just asking to leave

This alone, you're in time for the show
You're the one that I need
I'm the one that you loathe
You can watch me corrode like a beast in repose
'Cause I love all the poison
Away with the boys in the band

I've really been on a bender and it shows
So why don't you blow me a kiss before she goes?

Give me a shot to remember
And you can take all the pain away from me
A kiss and I will surrender
The sharpest lives are the deadliest to lead
A light to burn all the empires
So bright the sun is ashamed to rise and be
In love with all of these vampires
So you can leave like the sane abandoned me

There's a place in the dark where the animals go
You can take off your skin in the cannibal glow
Juliet loves the beat and the lust it commands
Drop the dagger and lather the blood on your hands, Romeo

I've really been on a bender and it shows
So why don't you blow me a kiss before she goes?

"They're pretty good." Kai pointed out to Tala.

"There's something about those two…" Tala couldn't help but say aloud.

Kai's face scrunched a little in some confusion, "Which two?" he asked, turning back to the band as he watched them all leave.

"The last two, the girl and the guy she's with." Tala replied.

Kai caught sight of the last two as they left the stage and nodded once he saw who Tala was talking about. "I've never seen the two before, where could you possibly know them from?" He asked.

"I saw that guy following us earlier on our way here." Tala pointed out quickly.

Kai smirked, almost resisting the urge to laugh, "Don't be paranoid Tala. I'm sure he wasn't following us and was just on his way here like us."

Tala tried to shrug it off and turned back to Kai, trying to force a small smile on his face while nodding, "Right."

---With Kyoshi and Sakura---

Kyoshi took Sakura's hand and dragged her to the side of the hall that lead them to the room they had been earlier. He looked up at the other two band members that had stopped and looked back at him, "Go on ahead and put the things in the car. We'll be there soon." He told them. The two nodded and kept on walking down the hall, leaving the other two alone.

Sakura turned from where she'd been watching the two leave and turned back to Kyoshi, "What is it?"

Kyoshi sighed and looked around after a second to make sure no one was around, "Did you see those two boy's in the front row?" he asked quietly.

"Yeah, I think so. Why?"

"That red-haired kid, I saw him earlier and she was following him, I scared her off but she might go after him again." Kyoshi answered her.

Sakura blinked in a little confusion before leaning back against the wall, "You shouldn't have confronted her by yourself." She stated coldly.

"I know but she was after him, I couldn't leave him alone or let her get to him, it's not like I could die or anything."

Sakura took his hand and shook her head, "It still hurts though."

"You're the one we should be worrying about, your singing was off today. Your daily check up?" Kyoshi asked carefully.

Sakura shrugged with some indifference before turning round to walk down the hall to the room again as she saw the others walk past with some of their stuff to take out to the car, "I don't care." She replied, walking down the empty hall and into the back room.

Kyoshi walked into the room behind her, shaking his own head at the thoughts of Sakura's disregard for her own life. He walked into the room, pushing the door closed behind him before walking over to her as she stood with her arms crossed in the centre of the room. He grabbed her carefully by her waist, gently lifting her off the ground and moving her to sit on a table. Sakura unconsciously slipped forward, leaning against Kyoshi's chest and losing complete consciousness once there.

---With Tala and Kai---

The two teenagers walked exhaustedly into Kai's apartment, both going their separate ways to go to their rooms, "Good night, Tal." Kai called, walking into his bedroom and closing the door quietly behind him.

Tala yawned, the exhaustion and heat slowly getting the better of him as he slammed his bedroom door shut and collapsed onto his bed, rolling over onto his back to stare through blurred vision at the ceiling. He yawned yet again, crawled off the bed and changed for bed again before getting back under the cool light covers.

"Another day." He muttered, closing his eyes to sleep.

Tala would have to call himself crazy if he told himself that he'd heard someone say, "Yeah." In agreement to his quiet statement but he knew he'd heard it. He opened his eyes and looked around the room, seeing nothing there he decided to try to ignore it like he tried all the other things that had got him jumpy throughout the day. He lay back down, pulled the covers over him but found the heat in the room far too intensifying. Japan was just in the middle of a heat wave which was exhausting just about everyone that lived there. The tired red-head kicked the covers off his body again, then turning over onto his back and stretching his arm off the bed to reach the small fan that was currently on his nightstand. He hit the button hard and turned back onto his side, closing his eyes in an attempt to sleep for about the fourth time that night and sleep was finally granted.

---Next Day---

Kai was currently lying on the sofa, a book being held above his head for him to read in the enjoyable freezing cold living room. In the meantime, Tala sat at Kai's computer, going through random things like pictures, files and his emails as he had agreed to keep in touch with Bryan, Spencer and Ian. The other three had decided they wanted to stay in Russia with the rest of the kids, to help look after them and make sure they were being treated right, as they after all where the oldest out of all the other Abbey kids.

The reason Tala decided to leave Russia was because he didn't want to be there for a while and Kai had offered for him to move in long before. He supposed he just couldn't stand being in Russia and no matter what Kai said and how much he disagreed, Tala was sure that Kai didn't enjoy living by himself.

Tala arched his back, stretching his muscles that had grown tense from being in front of the computer for the past three hours. "Two fans and an air conditioner and this place can still feel like an oven sometimes." Tala called out to Kai, wincing slightly as he rubbed at his shoulder muscles.

"Well for me it beats the ice and cold of Russia." Kai commented.

Tala got up from in front of the computer and walked over to the second sofa, falling back onto it, "My body is not used to this heat, I'm dieing over here." He complained.

Kai closed his book and threw it right at Tala, "And you say I've gone soft." He smirked, watching as the book almost hit Tala in the head, the red-head catching it just in time before it hit him in the head.

"You have." Tala said, throwing the book back to the other blader.

Kai sat up quickly and moved to the side, watching as the book flew past him, "And your aim is getting worse."

Tala groaned and rolled his eyes, "Yeah, a trainer that got you so sick you had to punch the wall a few hundred times, it does kind of cause some damage to your wrist and ruins your chances of being able to hit your ex-team mate in the head."

"Boris always was tough on you but you survived him for a long time." Kai pointed out to the youngest.

Tala shook his head, lying down comfortable, speaking as the ceiling was all he could see, "And because of it my body has years of abuse all over it."

"That's true but it's made you stronger so you shouldn't take it too hard now. You're here and he's in a Russian prison, you and everyone else are safe."

Tala sighed and shrugged slightly, "I guess you're right."

"Of course." Kai said, in some hope that he'd get a nicer and more cheery reaction from Tala. He hated seeing his friend so upset like the way he had been for the past few days. It was exhausting, watching a good friend of his be upset and depressed for countless hours. For most of the time there was no pleasing him, Tala didn't want to do anything and he never even wanted to relax. Even Kai could relax once in a while.

Tala sat up and smiled at Kai, "Don't push your luck." He warned him jokingly.

Kai laughed, that reaction was good enough for him. He got off the sofa and walked over to Tala, placing a hand out for the red-head to take, "Come on."

Tala took the hand and pushed himself off the couch, looking at Kai with confusion, "We're going somewhere?" he asked.

"Yeah, swimming." Kai replied, walking past Tala and into his bedroom.

Tala's eyes widened, then his eyebrow furrowed with more confusion than earlier, "Out in this heat?" He asked, walking up to the bedroom door, looking inside at Kai moving around his room.

"If you're talking about a beach, of course not, I'm not suicidal at the moment so thanks but I'm talking about the indoor pool at the gym. Its usually closed today but I know the owner and the place is practically fully air-conditioned so at least you won't be dieing of heat exhaust." Kai explained, walking right up to Tala, for some reason still with a smirk on his face. Tala was in the very short process of rejecting the idea and protesting to stay home but Kai just spun him round and pushed him by his shoulders out of his bedroom, "Go change." He ordered him, walking back into his room and closing the door.

Tala sighed, just a little frustrated. It wasn't that he didn't enjoy hanging out with Kai and going out but he just didn't want to these days. Going out was a prize after living in the Abbey for so long but after all those things he'd been seeing and the uneasiness he was feeling just made him feel untrusting to the outside world. He went to his room and changed to go swimming, he might as well go without problems and like Kai had said, no one would be there so he was safe wasn't he?

---At The Gym---

Kai was constantly moving around in the indoor swimming pool; from where he was swimming he was constantly watching Tala who was almost looking like a spoilt upset brat on a deck chair. "Stop pouting, you're human, you'll get wrinkles." He ducked under the water out of Tala's sight but more than anything he was sure that Tala was muttering some sarcastic comment.

Once he ran out of breath, he brought his head just above the water, watching as Tala walked closer to the pool, sitting at the edge with his legs hanging into the water. "I still don't understand why you couldn't let me just go to work out once we're here." He voiced to Kai, staring on at his feet as he kicked water at Kai.

"Let me see…" Kai started, pretending to think before speaking again, "Maybe it's because you don't need any more working out."

"This is coming from the guy who puts his team through boot camp every morning!" Tala exclaimed, giving Kai an upset look for being such a hypocrite.

"Hey I have reasons for that!" Kai defended himself.

Tala raised an eyebrow at Kai, curling his lips slightly, "Such as?"

Kai rolled his eyes at Tala and the stupid question, "Such as they eat enough to feed the damn army." He replied.

"That's still no reason to treat them so hard." Tala pointed out to him.

Kai looked like he was in deep thought for a moment, he pushed himself back in the water and rested his back against the wall, "Alright, so when the team is back here, you'll train them instead of me, twice a week." He informed him, smirking once he looked up to see the red-head's reaction.

Tala's mouth dropped open a little, blinking in surprise, "What?" he asked.

Kai laughed, "You heard me the first time I said it."

"Why would you want me to run your team?" Tala asked skeptically.

"I need a few days off in a week and you don't have much to do, you're familiar with training and I think training with our team would do you some good. Then you won't have to stay at home all day by yourself. We all win."

"What if the team doesn't want me there?" Tala asked quietly, stopping any movements and just staring down at the slow moving water.

"Who cares about what they want when it comes to training? They also want more breaks but that doesn't mean I'm going to give them what they want." Kai replied, resisting the urge to laugh at his own comments.

"You're a really evil person." Tala muttered, looking on grimly at Kai. Still looking down at the water, he noticed more shadows at the bottom that moved in front of him and moved forward. "What is that?" he asked, staring on with his mouth only seconds from dropping open completely.

Kai looked at Tala strangely, then to the place Tala was staring, seeing absolutely nothing there. Kai turned back to Tala, jumping up onto the side of the pool to sit next to Tala, looking at him carefully as Tala continued staring on. Kai sighed and quietly spoke, "You must be tired, go relax and we can leave soon."

Tala shook his head and pushed himself off the edge and into the water. Before Kai could take in what the red-head was doing Tala ducked under the water, opening his eyes under there and looking in the direction he'd seen the shadow. There in front of him he saw a tall girl smirking evilly at him, she wore a long purple dress and purple heels, standing casually on the pool's floor. She had shoulder length dark brown hair with shining grey eyes. The most terrifying part of her being under there was the fact that…the girl's dress and hair was perfectly dry.

The young blader felt someone grab his shoulder and he suddenly gasped for breath, pushing himself back up to the surface of the water for some fresh air. Kai stood just behind him in the water, "What the hell is wrong with you?" he lashed out angrily.

Tala turned his head again to look in the direction he'd seen the girl and suddenly seeing her there, he subconsciously moved his hand up a little and started gently hitting the front of Kai's shoulder to get his attention. Kai was looking in the same direction at the time, just staring on in absolute bewilderment, slowly grabbing Tala's hand after a while of being hit in the shoulder. "You see it now?" Tala whispered.

The girl had her head above water, well just half way through her nose so all that could be seen were her eyes and her dry hair. She continued to stare on with a sense of evil in her eyes and just by looking at the expression you could tell she was smirking under the water.

Kai moved a little forward, pushing Tala behind him, "Who are you?" he growled angrily.

The girl practically levitated out of the water, standing on the water as though she were standing on solid ground which was far from it. She smirked down at them, particularly at Kai before stepping closer once, "If you're worried that I'm after you, don't be…I'm after him." She pointed at Tala, making the red-haired teenager grip Kai's shoulder and pull him back.

"Leave him alone." Kai scowled, pushing Tala further behind him in hopes of protecting him, forgetting that Tala had his own pride to maintain and could protect himself. Probably he just wanted to protect him because he knew that ever since Tala had left the Abbey he had grown weaker from injuries and realizations of the past that weren't any helpful.

Tala moved closer in line with Kai's ear and whispered quietly, "This is why I told you I recognized that singer from. She looks like her and this girl I've seen has been showing up everywhere." He whispered.

The girl on the water laughed, she stepped closer again and kneeled down on the water in front of Kai, "You two can whisper all you like, I can still hear you." She whispered maliciously, the sadistic smirk still on her face.

"Who are you?!" Tala lashed out angrily.

Out of no where came two bullet shots, one hitting the girl in the shoulder while the other hit and chipped the stone of the end of the pool. Tala and Kai moved on out of the pool while the girl was distracted by the shots that had been aimed at her. "You again?!" The girl shot angrily at the intruder on the window.

A raven-haired girl sat on the window sill, looking on fiercely at the other girl, "What did I tell you about scaring people to death?" she jumped off the window and walked over to the pool, "Leave." She ordered in a loud and demanding voice that echoed through the empty room, her gun gripped tighter in her hand.

"Why don't you?"

"Leave, Hana. I'm serious."

'Hana' turned back to Kai and Tala, walking on the water till she reached solid ground, she smiled at the two of them as they stood there emotionlessly, "I'll visit again, don't worry." She whispered, laughing as she turned and dived into the water and disappeared.

Tala and Kai looked at each other, neither of them having any speck emotion on either of their faces as they weren't too sure how to react to the events they had just been a part of. They heard a quiet clicking from the other side of the room from the girl's gun which made the two bladers turn their attention back to her. She'd just latched her gun to the back of her trousers, which conveniently was covered by her black jacket. She slowly looked up at them, once seeing them staring back at her she slowly walked over to them, "Are you two okay?" she asked casually, the two obviously wondering where she came from and why she acted like nothing had just happened.

"We're fine." Tala answered for them both.

"Who was that? And who are you?" Kai asked. Clearly being scared half to death by some unknown creature still wasn't enough to change Kai Hiwatari's cold and breakable exterior as the way he spoke was cold and clear as he always had been through the years.

The girl smirked, tugging the hair band out of her hair to let the high bun of black hair fall to her shoulders, "Just as long as you're okay." She told them, turning and hoping back onto the windowsill and jumping out through there for her exit.

Tala turned to Kai quickly, "You still think I'm tired and need to rest?" he asked angrily, shouting slightly.

"Actually I think now we need a drink." Kai corrected himself, answering Tala's angered question in the process.

"That's the singer Kai! You couldn't tell because she doesn't look the same way as when we saw her last night." Tala said quickly.

Kai didn't answer, just turned and walked past Tala and to his backpack, picking it up and tossing the towel in there, "Let's go back home. We'll discuss it there." It was strange, he was acting like he didn't want to talk about what had happened, not yet at least or maybe he just didn't care about what had been said by that water girl.

---With Sakura---

Sakura walked down the streets till she arrived across the street from her house. She walked across the empty road and slid her key into the door; she looked around and slipped inside the house when she realized no one was actually looking. She walked into the apartment, taking her trainers off by the door and dropping her denim jacket over them. She stepped into the very well lit living room, peeking in from there through the thin curtain of Kyoshi's room.

She sighed and walked through the living room and into the doorway of the bedroom, standing there and looking down at Kyoshi who lay on his back on his leather bed, tear streaks more than clear on his pale cheeks. Once he saw her standing there he sat up quickly and tried to glare at her but with his gentleness he wasn't able to pull it off too well, "How could you do that?" he asked, speaking as though it took every breath he had in his body to speak.

"I couldn't let you stop me." Sakura answered. She was the complete opposite to Kyoshi very surprisingly because he was the gentle type, the one that couldn't really stay mad for too long but if it called unto that then he definitely could, especially if he took an action as a personal offence. Sakura on the other hand was the type that was cold-hearted when she had to be and could stay mad for hours just to prove a point to a person.

"You didn't need to leave like that! You didn't need to leave the curtains open like that and you didn't need to abandon me in here like that." Kyoshi shot off his bed and walked over to Sakura, pulling her into the room, his right gripping at her neck tightly.

Sakura didn't seem too phased by his actions, standing calmly there with her air way constricting slowly. "I had to keep you safe." She breathed out slowly.

"And what about keeping you safe? I have to look after you because you clearly can't so leaving me here wasn't right." Kyoshi let go of her and pushed her out of his bedroom door into the sun lit hall way.

Sakura didn't persist by walking into the room again, she just leant against the wall and slid down it, resting her arm on her drawn knee, "You haven't been well, you don't look right at all." She told him from her position.

Kyoshi sat down on his bed, resting his head in his hand, "Why are you trying to protect someone who can't die?!" he exclaimed, choking slightly on his words.

The raven-haired teenager exhaled and rested her head back against the wall, staring at the ceiling, "You haven't been drinking any blood lately, even if you have the opportunity and because of it you don't look well."

"It's none of your business!" Kyo called out rudely.

"But you're growing weak and now…"

Kyoshi interrupted by yelling angrily at her, "Would you prefer it if I drank yours?!" Sakura didn't reply to him but at the same time Kyoshi visibly relaxed after he'd said that, staring at a point on the wall as he thought and tried to speak at the same time, "I…live by draining the lives of others. Do you know what that's like for me? Sometimes I can't stand doing it so I don't, sort of like a starvation diet. Do you think that's fun?!" he lashed out again finally.

The young girl slowly got off the ground, walking across the living room and closing the window there so that not so much light shone through the curtains to Kyoshi's room. She slowly walked up to Kyoshi, watching as he buried his teary face in his hands, Sakura kneeling on the ground in front of him. She took a deep breath and pulled one hand off of the boy's face, taking it carefully in her hand as both her thumbs massaged the skin of his hand.

Her thumb accidentally ran over a burn that spread over his knuckles, she continued to stare down at it for a while before kissing the hand softly. Kyoshi continued to look at her strangely as she'd finished that action, she looked up at him warmly, the first time she'd looked at him so caringly in a while, "I don't…expect you living like this to be fun but I'm only trying to keep you safe."

"But you're the one that needs to be kept safe, not me!" Kyoshi whispered.

Sakura laughed quietly, "I can take care of myself perfectly fine, I had a good teacher." She smiled up at her mentor, letting go of his hand and getting off the ground. She walked out of the room, closing the window's curtains and walked back into the bedroom with a small box in her hand. She sat down on the ground, crossing her legs with the first-aid kit on her, tearing off a small piece of cotton wool and pouring some antiseptic onto it. "You think you're going to be well enough to play tonight?" she asked quietly, gently dabbing around the burn. She let out a small laugh, "I'm sorry, I'm pushing it." She whispered to him, moving closer and closer to the wound.

"No, you're not and I'll be fine, it's just a small burn." Kyoshi tried a small laugh of his own; a part of him regretting his yelling at the girl, another part of him feeling relieved he got it all of his chest.

"Sunlight on a vampire's skin turns out to be more than just a little burn, that's why I'm being so careful with this." Sakura whispered in regards to the second degree burn she was tending to attentively.

Kyoshi smiled giving her a quick kiss on the top of her head, "Right because I know for a fact that you're not this sweet and careful with just anyone."

---With Kai and Tala---

"So the plan is, we watch their show, then before they leave we question the singer about what happened today and who that Hana was." Tala went over their so called plan to Kai as they walked down the streets to the club from the night before. It was no secret that the band played there every few nights from nine thirty onwards. They were rumored to only play at night as no one had ever been to a gig of theirs that had been organized in the day time and all the performances were over with by eleven thirty.

"And ask her why Hana is after you and ask why she was there today." Kai added. The guy had been in a gloomy all day ever since they'd got back from the gym and it was most likely out of the thought that someone was after Tala and that someone wasn't normal.

"It's a plan so let's get in there." Tala indicated towards the door to the bar they were at the night before, Kai going inside with Tala following close behind. "What are they doing playing here already?!" Tala blurted out upon seeing the band already up on stage playing.

Kai shrugged slightly but grabbed Tala by the arm and pulled him to the seat at the front, near by to where they had sat the day before. "You think she recognizes us?" Kai asked him, keeping an eye on the whole band as they played.

"I think she'd be really stupid if she didn't." Tala pointed out understandably.

"Very good point there."
