Chapter 5: Hakuna Matata
It was already 4 o'clock in the afternoon, and everyone inside the Bladebreakers house was busy preparing the food they would use for dinner.
However the boys were the ones who were taking care of everything since Chief had called Hillary, and ask if she could go with Nami buy some juices and desserts, since he knew the brunette was only waiting for a chance to find someone with whom she could go to school.
So, by inviting Nami to go with Hillary, the brunette could go buy the groceries and go to the school too.
"Ok people, what do you think we should do?" Ray asked, as he opened the fridge "I was thinking about something easy."
"Like what?" Tyson asked, as he grabed a frying-pan
"What are you going to do with that?" Max asked suddenly, an eyebrow raised "You're not going to cook are you?"
"What if I want to?" Tyson asked, as he turned to the blonde
"Than I think it's better to order some chinese." Chief said suddenly, as he closed his laptop
"Hey, I'm not such a bad cook!" Tyson exclaimed indignatly, and everyone sweatdropped:
"Of course you aren't." Ray said, as closed the fridge "But I was thinking about other things; like Yakisoba, Takoyaki and Okonomiyaki. Oh and some Mochi, I'm just waiting for the groceries."
"Hmmm, sounds good to me." Tyson said, as he put a hand over his stomach "I haven't eaten those in a long time now."
"Then it's decided." Ray said, as he took the frying-pan from Tyson's grip "I'll start making the noodles. Max, do you mind taking care of the rice?"
"Fine by me." the blonde haired boy said, as he jumped from the chair "What are you going to do, Chief?"
"Who? Me?" Kenny asked, as he pointed to himself "Just watch thank you, I'm not a good cook."
At that everyone sweatdropped:
"Hey, as anyone seen Kai?" Tyson asked, as he tried hard to block the images of the food they were going to do
"I think he's in his room." Chief replied, and Tyson crossed his arms:
"Hmph, go figure why he doesn't want to help." he muttered "I bet his a terrible cook."
"On the contrary." Ray said suddenly and Tyson looked at him "Kai makes an amazing sushi; he probably just doesn't want to."
"I bet he's jealouse." Dizzi said, when Chief opened the laptop
"And why would he be jealouse?" Max asked, an eyebrow raised "And from what?"
"Ah boys will always be boys." Dizzi sighed "Isn't it obvious?"
"No, what?" Tyson asked, as he approached the laptop
"Why don't you just open your eyes during dinner and watch everything closely?" Dizzi asked back "Geez, I'm the computer, and I already understood everything!"
»«»«»«
"Er...Hillary, don't you think we have enough food already?" Nami asked, as she watched the brunette filling their card with things Nami knew that weren't on the list "How do you want to pay for all this stuff?"
"I'll put it on the Bladebreakers account." Hillary replied, without looking at the girl "Well we only need to buy a few more things, and then we can go."
"A few more things?" Nami asked, as she stared at Hillary as if she was crazy "Hillary, we have food here for a whole month."
"Not when Tyson is around." Hillary replied, and Nami shook her head:
"You really must care for him." the dark reddish-orange haired girl commented when Hillary was about to reach for something, and the brunette froze:
"Who?" Hillary asked, and Nami took her eyes off the car to look at the other girl:
"Tyson." she explained "I noticed how much you care for him." a blush covered Hillary's cheeks as the girl tried to say something in return "I know this isn't my business, but I couldn't stop noticing how worried you get because of him."
"That's only because Tyson's an irresponsible." Hillary managed to say, before grabbing the car "Come, we have to go. I still need to go to school, see if our time-tables are there."
"School?" Nami replied, as she opened her eyes wide "And what do you mean with 'our'?"
"Oh, I knew I had to tell you something; you're coming to school with us." Hillary explained, and Nami stopped her tracks:
"What?!" she asked shocked, and Hillary stopped walking:
"Why? You don't like the idea?"
"What do you mean I'm going to school with you?" Nami asked, ignoring Hillary's question "How's that possible?"
Hillary sighed, and crossed her arms:
"Well Mr Dickinson - like everyone else - believes you're going to stay here for a while so he asked me to buy your books." she explained "I did what he asked, but now we have to wait, and see with whom are you going to stay with."
"What do you mean? Aren't you guys together?" Nami asked as the two girls started walking towards the cash, and Hillary shook her head:
"No, because this is the first time they're going to school together." she replied "Kai was suppose to be in Russia, but for some unknown reason he decided to stay."
"What about the others?" Nami asked and Hillary chuckled:
"Well Max was suppose to be in America with his mom, but he decided to stay here with his dad." she explained "Ray said he wanted to stay one year in Japan, because he wanted to learn different things from the ones he learnt in China and...well, Chief, Tyson and I are classmates, though Chief wasn't until a year ago."
"Oh, so Kai and Ray will probably be classmates." Nami questioned though it was more like a statement, and Hillary shruged:
"I don't know." she said "The probability of that happening is very high, but if they are to be classmates then I bet you're going to be with them."
'But I wonder if that's going to be good.' Nami thought
Minutes later the two girls grabbed the many bags they had to carry, and got out of the supermarket, and while Hillary rambled about the subjects they would have that year, Nami tried hard to listen to the brunette though her mind kept going from Kai, to Kane and then to Tala, only to return to Kai and Kane again.
"You know I always liked Home Economics, what about you?" Hillary asked and Nami snapped from her thoughts:
"Oh, er...I dunno, I never had that one." she replied embarassed
Hillary was about to open her mouth when she spotted the school right in front of them, and a smile appeared on her face:
"That's the school." she said pointing with the chin towards the huge building, and Nami bite her lower lip as she looked at it
Now in silence the two girls walked inside High School, and Hillary lead Nami towards a few windows where papers had been glued with paste.
"Ok, lets find our names." Hillary muttered as she put her bags on the ground, and stared at the various papers a finger against her chin
Slowly Nami did the same, and started helping Hillary her eyes never leaving the various lists of names, until...
"Awww, I'm with Tyson again." Hillary groaned, and a small smile appeared on Nami's face "Oh, but Chief and Max are we us too!"
As Hillary kept staring at the list where her name was Nami continued search for her, and she ended up find it a few seconds later on the same list where Kai and Ray's names were.
"Did you found yours, Nami?" Hillary asked, without leaving her spot "Are you with Kai or Ray?"
"I'm with both." Nami replied as she looked at the girl, and Hillary smiled:
"That's great, isn't it?" she asked, and Nami shruged "Your time-table is below the list." the brunette added, and Nami looked at it:
'Japanese, Math, Chemistry, Home Economics, Home Economics again, English, Gymnastic...' Nami stopped her tracks, when her eyes noticed something strange.
Then, slowly, the dark reddish-orange haired girl looked at Hillary, who was also busy looking at her time-table:
"Hey Hillary, what's BTPC?"
"Huh? What are you talking about?" Hillary asked, without taking her eyes off her time-table "Oh, wait, I have BTPC too. But what in the world is that?"
As Nami walked towards the girl Hillary scanned the paper in front of her, until she found what she was looking for:
"Oh, here it is: BTPC means Beyblade Technics and Practice Class." the brunette read out-loud, before blinking "What? Beyblade Technics and Practice Class?!"
While Hillary kept rambling about the 'stupid game' and how was it possible for such subject exist, Nami stared at the time-table in one of the papers, and tapped a finger against her chin:
'So, this is their plan.'
»«»«»«
"Hey Ray, when's the other team going to come?" Max asked as he looked from the frying-pan filled with rice, and the black haired boy looked at him:
"Want to me to be honest? I don't know." he replied, with a chuckle "But I think they're coming before the beginning of school."
"Does that mean they're going to be our classmates?" Tyson asked, as he grabbed a soda and Ray shurged:
"I think so." he replied "Unless they're going to other school."
"Hum...I have the feeling this is going to be a weird school year." Chief muttered, as he kept tapping on his laptop
"And why's that?" Dizzi asked, and Chief shurged:
"Lets see now we not only have Ray and Kai staying here, but also Nami and the new team." he replied "Oh, and can't forget the Phychics."
"I think this will be a cool year." Tyson commented, as he sat on a chair "I mean we already have a mystery in hands, Kai's more unusual behavior, and old friends are coming to school with us. What more can we ask for?"
"For the groceries." Ray replied "How am I suppose to finish dinner without the rest of the food?"
As if they had heard Ray's question both Hillary and Nami stepped inside the kitchen, being the brunette rambling about something while the dark reddish-orange haired girl seemed to be lost in deep thought.
"Hey girls, what took you so long?" Tyson asked, a smile on his face "Got lost?"
"Shut up Tyson, I'm not into discussions right now." Hillary snapped annoyed, and the blue haired boy looked shocked at her before looking at his friends, who shruged.
"Hey Nami, dare to tell us what happened?" Max asked to the dark reddish-orange haired girl, who snapped from her thoughts:
"Oh nothing, I think Hillary is acting this way because she's in the same class as Tyson."
"WHAT?!" Tyson asked, completely caught of surprised "Ohh man, that's worse than grandpa's trainning."
"Hey, what about us?" Max asked, and Nami looked at him "Are we together or what?"
"Er, actually you and Chief are in the same class as Tyson and Hillry." Nami replied "I'm with Ray and Kai."
"You mean this year I'm not alone with 'Miss Perfect'?" Tyson asked as he stopped groaning, and when Nami shook her head 'no' the blue haired boy gave a jump in happiness
"Hey, but why is Hillary rambling so much?" Chief asked curiosed as he stared at the brunette, who continued to talk to herself
"Oh, it's nothing serious." Nami replied, as she waved a hand "I think she didn't liked one subject."
"Hillary didn't liked a subject?" Tyson asked before running towards the kitchen's window, and look up "Nope, pigs aren't flying nor is the sky falling."
At that statement everyone sweatdropped and, shook their heads while Tyson went back to his seat:
"Hey Hillary, snap out off it!" Tyson shouted, and the brunette blinked:
"Oh, hey guys." she complimented "You can't believe what I just found out! It's way to stupid and unbeliavable."
"What happened?" Max asked an eyebrow raised, but when Hillary opened her mouth to reply Nami cleared her throat:
"What if we take care of dinner?" she asked, suddenly "I mean, Kane and the others may come any minute now."
"Well, if you had come back hours ago, dinner would be done." Ray replied smirking, and Nami chuckled:
"Sorry about that." she replied, and, as an answer, Ray shook his head. It was only when the dark reddish-orange haired girl put her bags on the table, that she noticed someone was missing "Hey, where's Kai?"
"That guy didn't left his room." Tyson replied as he opened the fridge, and grabbed an ice cream "I wonder what he's doing there."
"Why don't you go get him, Nami?" Dizzi asked suddenly
"Yeah Nami go get him, and tell Kai the Phychics are coming soon." Max said smiling, and Nami chuckled:
"Fine, I'll go." she said before walking out of the kitchen, but not before grabbing Hillary's wrist, and pull her to the hall:
"Hey, what's your idea?" Hillary asked, and Nami turned to her:
"Don't tell them about the BTPC, ok?" she asked, and Hillary put her hands on her hips in a questionning manner "Because we would have to say everything again when Kane and the others got here, and if there's something I hate it's to have to repeat myself."
"Hmph, fine." Hillary replied "But do you know why we're going to have BTPC?"
"I have my doubts." Nami explained "But that's why I want to wait for the others, before mentioning the subject. Please Hillary, don't say a word about BTPC."
"Fine, I won't." Hillary said, as she let her arms fall on her sides before smiling "Now you go get Kai, ok?"
After a nod from Nami both girls walked to different directions, and while Hillary helped Ray on the kitchen Nami walked to Kai's room, and knocked on the door.
Though silence was the only thing that answered her knock Nami decided to give it a shot, and open the door only to face a desert room.
'I wonder where he is.' Nami thought as she walked inside, and looked around: Kai's room was clean, and looked very cosy. However there was something that caught Nami's attention: a blue beyblade over a bedside table.
Though she was a little unsure Nami walked towards the bedside table, and grabbed the beyblade before looking at the picture of the bit-beast:
"Dranzer..." Nami whispered, at same time flashes of the Black Dranzer appeared in her mind
"Hn, what are you doing here?" a hoarse voice asked, and Nami spun around still with the beyblade in her hand, and she silently gasped when her aqua-green eyes met a pair of reddish-brown ones
"Oh...I was...well, the thing is..."
Before Nami could stop stuttering Kai approached her, and yanked the beyblade from the girl's hand:
"Don't you ever touch my beyblade, again." Kai said slowly, and Nami crossed her arms:
"As if I would like to touch it again." she replied, and Kai narrowed his eyes "Look, I didn't came here to discuss with you; everyone is waiting for you downstairs because Kane and the others will arrive anytime now, and then told me to come and get you."
Suddenly a knock on the front door of the house was heard, and Nami looked to the room's door for a few seconds before turning to Kai again, who was looking annoyed:
"Please Kai come, I have something important to tell you and to the rest of the guys." she said "It's about Boris plan, I think I know what he's trying to do."
"Hmph, fine." Kai said, as he put his beyblade inside his pants' pocket
In silence the two teenagers walked to the other floor and entered inside the living-room, only to come face-to-face with a surprise:
"You know Ray, I think we really need to find a way to see each others again without having a mystery in our hands." a deep voice said, and Nami blinked as she watched a pink haired girl hugging Ray rather tightly, a dark brown haired whose arms were folded against his chest, a small dark green haired boy who was leaned against a wall, and, finally, a really tall boy, who was eating a green apple.
"Hum...who are they?" Nami asked to Kai, who had crossed his arms
"Hmph, they're the White Tigers." the bluish-grey replied, and Nami blinked in confusion:
"White Tigers?" she repeated catching everyone's attention:
"Yeah we're the White Tigers, got a problem with that?" the green haired boy asked
"Ray, who's that girl?" the pink haired girl asked as she looked suspisciously at Nami, and then back to Ray:
"Guys, this is Nami." Ray introduced, a smile on his face "Nami, these are the White Tigers: Mariah, the brown haired boy is Mariah's brother Lee, the green haired one is Kevin, and the tall one is Gary."
"This is the team that's going to help us?" Nami asked blinking, and Mariah looked at her:
"Why? Got a problem with that?" she asked, her hands on her hips
"Actually, no, I was going to say that Ray made a good choice." Nami replied annoyed, and Ray laughed nervously.
"Ahh c'mon guys, tonight is Hakuna Matata so please stop getting into each others nerves." Tyson said, and everyone looked at him confused:
"Hakuna Matata?" Chief repeated, and Tyson sweatdropped:
"Never saw Lion King, did ya?" he asked, and almost everyone shook their heads.
Since everyone was to busy talking about everything and nothing at the same time, no one heard the knock on the door expect for Kai , who growled when he understood he had to open the door. However, once he opened the front door, Kai immediatly crossed his arms, and left the door opened leaving the group that was outside completely confused by his actions.
"Guess, that's his invitation." a brown haired girl said, her eyes focused on Kane
After a nod Kane walked inside the house, close followed by the rest of his team, and not many seconds later, the Psychics walked inside the living-room
"Goodnight, everyone." Kane complimented and all the teenagers inside the living-room looked at them, except Kai who was leaned against the wall, arms crossed and eyes closed
"Salima!" Nami exclaimed, a smile on her face "You guys are here!"
"Hey there Wave, how are you?" a blonde haired boy asked, a smile on his face
"I've been missing you, that's for sure." Nami replied as she hugged each element from the Phychics before turning to Kane, and smile at him
"Hey, what's going on here? Is this a reunion or something?" Mariah asked as she crossed her arms, and Ray chuckled:
"For now it's a dinner with friends." he said
"And later it will be Hakuna Matata." Tyson completed, and everyone sweatdropped at the same time Hillary hit the boy at the back of his head
"Come, lets go eat." Max said, and everyone nodded for none of them could admit they weren't hungry.
The dinner passed between Tyson and Gary stuffing their faces, talks between everyone trying to know each others better, and Kai's silence. Every now and then everyone would laugh at something, but everything ended up dying down at the same time the dinner came to an end.
"And now for the Hakuna Matata time!" Tyson exclaimed as he got up from his chair, and Hillary looked at Nami who, after sharing a look with her, cleared her throat and got up:
"Actually," she started, and everyone looked at her "I need to talk with you guys, it's really important."
"What is it?" Kane asked, and Nami clenched her fists:
"It's about Boris plan." she replied, and silence filled the kitchen at same time everyone looked confused at the dark reddish-orange haired girl.
Nami was getting uncomfortable under so many gazes, until Kai got up from his seat:
"Lets go to the living-room." he said "There you can tell us what you know."
After a few nods everyone left the kitchen, and went to the living-room where some sat on the couch, others on the floor and others simply stand, though everyone's eyes were on Nami who, though a little uncomfortable, was standing in front of them.
"So?" Lee asked as he crossed his arms, and Nami cleared her throat:
"As some of you know Hillary and I went to school see our time-tables, and to see who were our classmates." the girl started and all the Bladebreakers nodded "Well, the thing is...there is this new subject that's called BTPC, in other words, Beyblade Technics and Practice Class."
"What? Beyblade Techincs and Practice Class?" almost everyone repeated, and both Hillary and Nami nodded
"Since when is Beyblade a subject for school?" Mariah asked as she raised an eyebrow, and Nami shruged:
"Don't ask me." she said "Anyway, I think this is Boris plan."
"What do you mean?" Kane asked, and Nami licked her lips:
"Boris wants to creat a reality unreal, but he needs people who can use beyblades." she explained "You know a Tournament would be to obvious, and since Beyblade has been so famous these last years many people will accept this new subject."
"Wait just a second." Kevin said suddenly, as he rose a hand "What's a reality unreal?"
With a sigh Nami started explained to the White Tigers everything she knew, and half an hour everyone fully understood what was happening.
"So, Boris is trying to control people through their dreams?" Lee asked, and Nami nodded:
"He has been making many experiences, and he probably reached the peak of his investigation; now he wants to control the world." she replied, and Mariah crossed her arms:
"This is so....well, unreal that's hard to believe." she commented, before looking at Nami "How will the er...BTPC help Boris to control the world?"
"That's one part of the mystery we'll have to discover." Nami replied, and everything went silence
From where he was Kai looked at Nami who was looking to the floor until Kane appeared next to her, and started talking softly with her. However when he saw Kane put a hand over Nami's arm something inside Kai shook violently, and the boy narrowed his eyes.
The same thing was happening to Mariah, who was watching Ray talking with Salima about the old times. She was feeling jealouse since Ray was talking with other girl and ignoring her completely, but the pink haired girl forgot about it as soon as the phone started ringing.
"I'll get it." Max said, before making it's way towards the main hall
"Hey people, do you have a place to stay?" Tyson asked to the White Tigers, and Lee crossed his arms:
"We'll find a hotel." he replied, and Tyson smiled:
"You know, you could stay at my grandfather's house." he started "He's all alone, and we usually go sleep there on the weekends, but since there's so much room I thought you would like the idea." then the blue haired girl looked at the Psychics "The invitation is for you guys also."
"Thank you Tyson, but we're already in a hotel." Salima thanked, and Tyson grinned:
"But that's the thing, why should you stay in a hotel when you can stay at my gramps?" he asked "He doesn't mind, seriously."
"Well, we don't have much money." Mariah muttered, as she looked at his brother "What do you say, Lee?"
"Hmph, you know I don't like charity." the dark brown haired boy replied, and Tyson raised an eyebrow:
"But it's not charity, it's Hakuna Matata." he replied, and everyone shook their heads "Seriously, you can stay there."
"Hmph, fine." Lee replied, and Tyson smiled before turning to the Psychics waiting for an answer:
"Well, I guess we could give it a try." Kane said, and Tyson gave a jump in happiness:
"Yes, I'll take you to gramps tonight." he said at same time Max walked inside the room:
"Hey people, it was Mr Dickinson on the phone." he started catching everyone's attention "And I have good news."
"What happened?" Hillary asked "Did he heard about BTPC too?"
"Yeah he did, but there's nothing he can do about it." Max replied "Besides, that was not why Mr Dickinson called."
"So, why did he?" Ray asked, and Max smiled:
"I think we'll have new classmates this year." he said, and everyone raised their eyebrows in confusion
"Why do you say that?" Chief asked confused, and a huge smile appeared on Max's face at the same time the blonde grabbed a piece of paper from his pocket, and cleared his throat:
"Lee, Kane, Salima and Goki are in the same class as Nami, Ray and Kai." he started, and everyone blinked "Everyone else is with me, Chief, Tyson and Hillary."
"What?!" almost everyone asked in confusion, and Max chuckled:
"Mr Dickinson said it's for the best." he replied "Besides if we're going to try and find which Boris' plan is, we need to stick together."
"Well, that was unexpected." Mariah muttered "But it does make sense."
"Yay!!!" Tyson shouted happily, and Hillary raised an eyebrow:
"Tyson, what the hell is wrong with you?" she asked annoyed, and the blue haired boy looked at her:
"This is Hakuna Matata; now that we're together, nothing wrong can happen."
Once again at the statement everyone sweatdropped, and started shaking their heads.
