-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rei squinted his eyes as the suns ray's drifted in through the window. Yawning, he sat up and stretched. Standing from the bed, he walked to the bathroom. He looked in the mirror, frowning slightly as he looked at his hair. Some how, it had come undone from the bind he normally kept it in.

"Stupid, frigging, long, tangled," he mumbled, muttering other insults to his hair.

He paused in the difficult task of brushing his hair. Something was missing. Something small and cute. Something with blood red eyes and two toned blue hair. Something named Kai.

"Kai?" Rei called, peaking his head into the room.

Where was the little child? Rei walked into the room, looking under the blankets and beds. He even went as far as checking behind curtains. When he didn't find anything, he started to panic. He flipped over the small tables and chairs, hoping that by some chance he was under there. He tore the blankets and sheets off the bed and pushed the mattresses over. Still finding nothing, he looked in the small cabinets.

Becoming hysterical when he didn't find the small child, he ran out of his room, not caring that his hair was messy and flying in practically every direction or that he was only half dressed. He had to find the chibi captain. He knocked on his other teammates' door frantically, growling when they didn't answer.

"Tyson! Max! Kenny!" Rei yelled. "Open the door!"

The door opened, revealing a tired looking Kenny.

"What's wrong Rei?" Kenny asked, yawning and rubbing his eyes.

"I can't find Kai!" Rei whined, running into the room and tearing it apart like he did his own. He screamed, still not finding any sign off Kai.

"Whoa!" Max yelped, jumping up when he heard the aggravated yell. "Where's the fire?!"

"I can't find him!" Rei shouted, kicking the wall before running out of the room.

Max and Kenny stared at the open door, hearing Rei's frantic voice echoing "Kai" down the halls.

---

After Kenny filed Max in on what was going on (which wasn't a lot to tell), Max was already dressed and ready.

"Let's go help Chief." Max said, jumping up and running out of the room.

Kenny nodded before he turned to the still sleeping Tyson.

"How is he still asleep?" he thought, Tyson snoring to prove his point.

Sighing, he wrote a quick note for when Tyson woke up, the he ran out the door.

---

"Kai!" Rei called, searching through the halls, ignoring angry shouts and complaints from angry people telling him to shut up.

"I'm trying to sleep." one man growled, coming out of the room. "Shut the hell up!"

Rei ignored him and continued searching, still screaming for Kai. The man became even more angry and strode up to Rei, grabbing his arm and twisting it painfully around. Rei yelped at the sudden pain that shot up his abused limb.

"What did I just say?!" the guy yelled, pushing Rei forward.

"Did it ever occur to you that I don't care?!" Rei snapped back, glaring up at the tall man.

"Why you--!" the man started before he lunged at Rei.

Rei easily dodged the attack, but was caught off guard when the guy kicked his knee back. Rei hit the floor hard, yelping when the man stood up and grabbed his neck, jerking him to his feet.

"Now are you going to stay quiet, or do I have to rip out your vocal chords?" the man sneered, squeezing Rei's neck tightly."Anger management!" said a little voice. "Put him down!"

Rei looked behind the guy, his eyes lighting up when he saw the chibified captain.

"Kai!" Rei smiled before he glared at the man. "Put me down!" he ordered as he kicked at the man.

The man was caught off guard at the sudden burst of violence. He dropped Rei, momentarily stunned, as the teen kicked his stomach. When he gained his thoughts back, he spun around intent on Giving Rei hell.

Looking around, he saw no one there.

---

Rei was walking back to the room, a glaring Kai in his arms, looking over his shoulder.

"Where were you? I woke up and you were gone! You weren't in our room or the others' room! Why did you wander off? Someone could have kidnapped you or worse!" Rei ranted off, clearly expressing his worry and anger.

"Well I got bored when I woke up and I didn't want to wake you, so I left to look around the hotel." Kai explained, staring at the floor. "And no one kidnapped me, don't worry."

Rei sighed and hugged Kai tightly. "Next time, please just tell me you're leaving." he said. "You had me so worried."

"Sorry." Kai apologized. "I found a bey dish if it helps."

"Really? Where?" Rei asked, looking at Kai.

"There's a gym on the first floor. Don't know how we missed it. You can get to it from the pool."

"Then that's where we're going as soon as we get back." Rei said, a smile on his face. "We need to practice."

---

Rei and Kai were sitting in Tyson, Max, and Kenny's room, waiting for Max and Kenny to get back.

"Tyson, wake up." Kai ordered, sitting on the boy's chest. "You lazy, idiotic, pig! Stop snoring and open your eyes!"

"Nnn...another hour..." Tyson mumbled, rolling over. Of course, him rolling over caused Kai to fall off of him and the bed. Rei's head snapped in his direction as he heard the small thud.

"Kai? You ok?" he asked as Kai stood up."

Kai rubbed his head and growled. "That's it!" he yelled, trying to jump back on the bed. Growling again, he turned to Rei. "Rei! Up! Now!" he ordered, his hands fisted at his sides.

"Ok, ok." Rei said, picking the child up and putting him on the bed. "Just don't kill him."

"Can't make any promises." Kai said, glaring at Tyson. "Now get up!" Kai ordered once more, jumping on Tyson. He stood up on his side and grabbed a pillow. Placing it softly over Tyson's face, he pressed it down as he started to jump on the sleeping bladers side. Kai smirked as Tyson started to thrash around, a muffled scream escaping the pillow.

"Kai!" Rei scolded, grabbing the child and pulling him off of the suffocating teen.

Tyson sat up quickly, gasping for air. "What's your problem?!" he screamed as Max and Kenny finally came back to the room.

"What did we miss?" Kenny asked, looking for the angry Tyson to the smirking Kai.

"Our trusted captain," Tyson started, sneering the word trusted. "tried to kill me!"

"No, I just tried to wake him up." Kai countered, the triumphant smirk never leaving his face.

"Yeah, by trying to kill me!"

"Kai, don't do that again. You could have really hurt him." Rei said, putting the child down.

"He knocked me off the bed first!" Kai defended, looking up at Rei. "You saw him!"

"You were sitting on his chest. I'm not surprised he did."

"What ever." Kai grumbled, crossing his arms.

"Anyway." Rei said, changing the topic. "We're going to practice today. Kai found a gym and it has a bey dish."

"No way! Really?!" Tyson asked, completely forgetting about his near death experience.

"Yes Tyson." Rei chuckled softly. "Now hurry up and get ready so we can go! We have to practice! There's only a couple of days until the tournament."

"Ok!" Tyson cheered, gathering his clothes and running to the bathroom.

Max laughed and grabbed his blade. "Ready for some practice Draciel?" he asked, smiling as the bit chip glowed a soft purple. "I thought so!"

"Come on Kai. Let's go get Dranzer and Driger." Rei said, walking out of the room.

Kai nodded and ran after Rei. He followed him into the room, picking up his Dranzer as Rei found his Driger. Kai looked at his blade frowning slightly. Something was wrong with Dranzer, but he didn't know what.
