Disclaimer: The story is mine, but the characters I stole from Takao Aoki because he didn't make Kai and Tyson kiss on screen…ever.

Holy shit, I know! I actually updated! Really cool thing is that I downloaded Microsoft word onto my phone and I'm typing this from work! As soon as I'm finished this, then I will be reading everyone's updates.

Thank you to , Nawmay, Tyka's Flower, Granger Rebellion and kaidatinuchan for reviewing!

Enjoy the chapter!

My fingers were a blur as they typed off a response. It was like I was being suffocated from the inside out.

/How long was your relationship going on for?/

I sat at the keyboard, anxiety gnawing at my core as I waited for a reply. My body was still shaking from rage. I had been so, so stupid. Aggressively, I was hitting the 'Refresh' button like it could magically solve all my problems.

'I don't love you anymore.'

God, what wouldn't I give to go back in time and take it all back? Start over. Never meeting Andr-

I froze.

I had one new message.

I clicked.

/She started messaging me in April of 2008./

Everything was numb. That was when Gou was 2 months old. The Bitch cheated on me for 2 goddamn years?!

Enraged, I picked up the laptop and smashed it into the desk, the keys flying off as the keyboard was torn in two, the screen cracking. I picked up the mangled machinery, opened up the balcony doors and threw it out the window. The pieces scattered over the stone steps below.

Taking a breath to calm myself, I looked up at the full moon. I remember in my younger days where I used to sneak out of my room in the abbey just to stare at the moon and stars. I closed my eyes.

…Y'know I think I rather go back to the abbey than deal with this shit.

I was about to go back inside, when something caught my eye. A beydish sat along the fence, covered in weeds and vines, long forgotten and untouched in years…

…

Oh what the hell?

I went back inside and walked up to an old family portrait of my parents and pulled it from the wall, revealing a safe made out of steel. I twisted the black dial until I heard it unlock and swung the door open. From its dark cavity I retrieved a small object before making my way down the staircase, pausing only to check up on Gou. Silently I made my way through the dark house to the sliding glass door and exited out to the backyard.

Carefully I cleared the beydish of the weeds and roots. I observed despite years of disuse, the steel dish only had a few patches of rust. Standing up, I withdrew the launcher and ripcord from my pants pocket. The clicking sounds as the ripcord's teeth were inserted into the launcher was more than satisfying. I clicked on my old blade and took my stance at the beydish. God, I felt powerful. Like between my fingers I held a nuclear bomb. Everything was suddenly in my control.

I drew a breath and steadied my hand.

"Let it rip!"

Like a bullet, Dranzer spun off the launcher and landed perfectly in the centre of the dish. I closed my eyes and I could feel the warmth of her flame and hear the voice of her song that was for my ears only. After 7 long years, Dranzer and I were finally one again.

Instincts took over as I poured my emotions into my blade. Purple hellfire trailed from the tip and exploded around me as Dranzer danced gracefully around the dish. I wasn't afraid though. I was in complete control, the fire moving with my thoughts, waning and strengthening with my will. It only burned what I told it to.

Exhilarating was the only word to describe this. I can't believe it took me this long to come back.

My energy spent, the flames began to wither and die. I recalled my blade to my hand, glancing down at the centrepiece. Dranzer gleamed in the moonlight.

"That was awesome!"

I snapped my head around to see Gou standing on the roof just outside his bedroom window.

"How did you do that?! What was that gorgeous bird?!"

I sighed, but my lips curved upwards in satisfaction. My mind was finally calm and clear.

The Bitch may have torn apart my world, and ripped my heart in two, but she had left me the only thing worth living for. I looked up at my son. "Get down here and I'll show you!"

"Why are you so happy?" asked Tyson, squinting at me from across the desk.

I rolled my eyes. "I'm never happy."

His eyes went wide. "There it is again!" He said, leaning over and pointing at my cheeks, "By your standards, that's a smile." His eyes lit up. "Is it a girl?!"

"Hn. The only woman in my life is Dranzer."

It was hilarious watching the little gears in his brain start clicking together. "YOU'RE BLADING AGAIN?!" he screeched.

"Say it louder, I don't think Tala could hear you in Russia!" I grunted as a pounding started behind my eyes.

"Sorry." He lowered his voice. "It's just exciting."

"Yeah. I was teaching Gou last night. He's learning faster than I did."

"Gou too?!" He asked, grinning, before his face grew solemn. "Kai…why now?"

I looked at him and I could feel him undoing me with his eyes, in that way he's always done. "Bitchface's ex emailed me."

"The one she left you for?"

I nodded. "Apparently she was cheating on me since Gou was 2 months old. So I got angry."

"I see." His expression darkened. "Is that why your hand is bandaged too?"

I could feel his jealousy and worry coming off of him in torrents. He hadn't changed in 20 years. My heart clenched in guilt. I wanted to touch him. To hold him. To kiss him. "Don't you have papers to shred or something?"

"Yup." He picked up the shredder, surmounted it on his desk and shredded at least a hundred documents before my very eyes. I was about to tell him off, when he said, "Now that the world won't find out about your dirty laundry…tell me more about you and Dranzer. Was she mad?"

I found myself grinning. How did this bastard always manage to find a way to make me smile?

So that's all for now! Send me a review letting me know what you think!
