Son of the Dark: 8
Rei's POV:
Rei gave a deep sigh and looked over at Kai who was sitting in front of the fireplace in their privet common room, he was reading some advanced potions book Snape borrowed him, he was wearing a tight-red tank top, a pair of his baggy-gray cargo-pants which hung loosely to his waist and a purple bandanna, he also had his hair tied back in a loose ponytail(much like Tyson's) that reached his upper back.
'do you have any idea how beautiful you are Kai?' Rei thought to himself, starring at the peaceful-look on the phoenix's face. Rei frowned knowing if he went over and sat next to Kai he would quickly find an excuse to get away, for some reason Kai had been avoiding him all week, he first noticed when Kai refused to look him in the eye at the beginning for Potions and from that he noticed Kai would avoid any type of contact, conversation or anything unless it was necessary.
Kai quickly glanced up at Rei from his place on the floor but as soon as eye-contact was made it was broken by Kai who just as quickly looked back to his book. Rei gave a sad smile, he'd also noticed Kai had been doing that a lot today too: sneaking quick glances at him when ever the phoenix thought he was not looking.
The neko-jin gave another quiet sigh and looked around the room; everyone was out or in their rooms which made everything seem very quiet and that was just plain weird seeing as this was the BladeBreakers room we are talking about.
The room was dark except for the gentle glow from the fireplace which gave the large room a homey feel to it, Rei looked back to Kai and smiled softly watching the flickering light of the fire play off his pale skin, Rei snuggled down into the couch not taking his eyes off Kai, fire really did go well with the little bird, Rei could tell why Kai had the power of fire; he was mesmerising and beautiful like a flame, worm and calming but could also be dangerous at times(most of the time). Rei sighed for the umpteenth time in the last 10 minuets and stared reading his Beyblade magazine again, trying not to look at Kai knowing that when he was ready he would talk to him again.
Normal POV:
Kai finished reading the last page of the potions book and closed it gently, he pulled out a pocket watch from one of his cargo-pants many pockets, it was silver with the shape of a phoenix carved into it and under the phoenix was the name 'Kikyou' was engraved. Kai flipped it open and looked at the time. "SHIT! It's 10:05pm! Weir late!" he yelled, jumping up making the large book hit the floor with a loud 'slam!'

"hay, have ya' noticed that Tyson-baka an' Rei act weird when Kai's around?" an annoyed red-head asked while hanging upside down from a tree watching the other blading. Max looked up from his blade to the short wild-boy "what? You've just noticed?" he asked not all that surprised that Daichi was finely just getting it after a year, Max just wanted to tease the younger.
"yeah, why? How long has it been going on?!" Daichi asked still upside-down, Max sighed, calling back his Beyblade, turning to Daichi and sitting down on the soft grass "well I first noticed last Christmas but I have a feeling its been going on longer than that" he stated leaning back on his hands.
Daichi humph'ed childishly and crossed his arms "so what is goin' on?", Max smiled smugly and shrugged "isn't it obvious? Rei and Tyson have the hot's for Kai".
Daichi looked confused "oh" he said obviously not getting it. Max smiled again and started counting in his head.
1...
2...
3...
4...
And 5...
Daichi's eyes widened to the size of dinner plaits and he lost his grip on the tree branch "WHAT?!" he screamed as he fell and landed on his head, 'right on time' Max thought with a cute smile on his face "come-on Daichi, its so obvious! that's why their all ways fighting! Their competing for Kai's attention and affections!" he said happily. Daichi just laid there on the ground, eyes wide, looking at Max with a shocked-look.
"I think its cute the way their always looking at Kai all goo-goo eyed" a voice from behind Max stated. The two bladers turned to see two girls, one was around Max's height with long blond hair tied-back in a pony-tail and short bangs on the left side of her forehead, she had light green eyes surrounded by long-dark eyelashes. The other girl was shorter, a little taller than Daichi with long silky plaited black hair that reached her waist and big cute amethysts purple eyes surrounded by thick girly eyelashes and had light freckles on her light pink cheeks. Both were wearing school uniforms without the rubs, they both also wore HufflePuff ties. The shorter ones shirt was un-tucked and was hanging out from under vest and had a flower hairclip in her hair. The taller had gold hoop earrings and a hello-kitty bobble.
"Hi! My names Gracia!" the taller practically screamed in a high pitched voice and waved her hands in a hyper way. "a-and I'm Eve" the smaller stuttered unconsciously stepping behind Gracia.
The two bladers faces turned bright red and both waved dumbly at the two girls "hi, I'm Max" Max said giving a goofy smile. "D-Daichi ,I'm" Daichi said quietly, mixing up his sentence. Both HufflePuff's smiled and sat down next to the two drooling boys, less than a second later the two bladers were practically tackled as the two girls jumped onto their laps and shouted.
"Can We See Your BeyBlades!?"
Unfortunately another yell came from the distance "Max, Daichi! Get your butts in gear! Weir late!" the four teens turned to see a pissed-off looking Kai and annoyed looking Rei dragging a half a sleep Tyson behind him.
Kai stopped in front of the other teens giving them a weird look but shrugged it off "get off them Gracia and.. Eve?" he said a little shocked that Eve would jump Daichi but then remembered that she had her random moments "whatever, just get off them we're late for our privet lesson with Dumbledore" he stated quickly, grabbing Daichi and Max by their shirt collars and dragged them from under the two pouting girl.
The five bladers hurried off down the corridors towards the Headmasters office until they reached the spot in the seventh-floor corridor where a single gargoyle stood against the wall. "crap" Kai muttered under his breath not remembering the password and knowing full well that his team-mates wouldn't know it ether. Kai walked up to the gargoyle "hay, let us in! we have an appointment to see Dumbledore and I cant remember the password!" he yelled up at it……
Nothing. It ignored him! No one ignores him! "MOVE ASIDE YOU GOD-FORSACKEN LUMP OF ROCK!!" he screamed in anger, a stream of fire shooting from his mouth towards the statue, the gargoyle quickly moved to the side barely missing the flames; the wall behind it slide apart, and a moving spiral stone staircase was revealed, Kai smirked and marched his way up the stairs with the other bladers following at least a meter behind (well wouldn't you?! He just breathed fire! I'd stay away too!!).
The two-toned haired teen quickly made his way up the winding stairs and knocked on the door. "please enter" a muffled reply called from inside, when the others came up behind Kai. Walking in the Bladers were greeted by the sight of the smiling headmaster and a ruffled Harry standing by a glowing bowl like thing. Dumbledore turned to a confused looking Bladers "now, for your first lesson this year I thing its about time you 6 sorted out your differences" he said, turning to Harry. "please, sit-down" Dumbledore said walking over to his desk. As the six teens sat-down hesitantly, Albus couldn't help but smile.
"now, as from what I've heard, Harry, you and your friends have been avoiding Kai since last year, why is that?"
"I've told you professor, I do not want to be around someone who was the son of my enemy! He kept it a secret from my and his friends! For all we know he could have just made friends with me to spy for Voldmort!" Harry yelled, standing up.
"that's not true! I only knew I was Voldmort's son by the dreams I had of when I was a baby! And I was friends with you because I wanted to be! I thought you were nice! But I guess I was wrong!" Kai yelled back at him, looking offended "you where about to go with Bellatrix Lestrange when she held out her hand! and proves we cant trust you! You could run off the Voldmort at any moment!" Harry yelled, pocking Kai on the chest.
"What would you do!? She is my Godmother! The only thing I will ever get to a mother since…and Voldmort is my Father! someone who is related to me by blood! The only other person in my entire life since my mom…has been by Grandfather, Voltaire!" Kai yelled shoving Harry who noticed the other Bladers flinch at the mention of this Voltaire guy.
"who, I will let you know he owned the Abbey!" another (more violent)flinch "the Abbey he dumped me in and it was nothing like a normal Abbey! They tortured us if we lost a Beybattle! And if we tried to escape they killed us! Do you know how many friends I've lost because Boris found-out about them?!" another much, much, much more violent flinch
"all because Voltaire wanted an emotionless worrier for a grandson! He and Boris turned Tala into a Cyborg! Voltaire executed 64 children in front of me when I was four! Just to stop me crying! What would you do if you found-out you had a father who has never and would never hurt you after having a life like that?!" Kai finely finished, leaving everyone in the room in shock as he sat back on the sofa and began sobbing quietly. Rei was the first one of the Bladers to snap out of it and pulled Kai into a hug.
"Mr. Kon, could you and the rest of your friends take Mr. Hiwatari back to his room its late. I'll send you a letter telling you when your next lesson is, we'll start working on you control then" Dumbledore stated, motioning to the door. As the BladeBreakers left he turned to a still wide-eyed Harry "h-he was over-exaggerating, r-right?" Harry asked turning away from the door.
"I've done quit a bit of research on Mr. Hiwatari's history, he lived with his mother until she died upon which he was sent to live with Voltaire Hiwatari, his grandfather, and if anything I believe he was downplaying the horror of it, if it was not for one Mr. Dickenson, Voltaire would not be in prison and Kai would be back in the Abbey" Dumbledore said sadly.
"now, I believe you should head to bed, Harry, so you may think over what you have learned from tonight's lesson" he said making Harry leave, Harry not saying a word, a stoic look on his face.
