Beyblade Fan Fiction ❯ Solitary Flame/A Final Spark ❯ Flying Sugar Explanations ( Chapter 13 )

Disclaimer: I do not own Beyblade.

Author's note:

Thanks for all the reviewing you guys, and thanks to Jacquie especially for helping me out with the next two chapters, plot wise. Anyways I've decided to make this chapter part Rei POV (point of view) because I thought it made more sense to have it his POV instead of Destiny's. You'll see why.

Chapter 13

Rei's POV

I sat quietly on the couch of the hotel room when Kai walked in, obviously seeing he was angry about something when he slammed the door upon entry.

"Hey, something wrong?" I asked cautiously.

"None of your damn business, Kon." He snapped, and then disappeared into his room.

"He'll cool off tomorrow." I thought aloud with certainty.

&&&&&&&&&&&&&am p;&&&&&&&&&&

"Kai, pass the sugar?" Max asked politely at breakfast, beaming with happiness. I felt a bad feeling form in the pit of my stomach.

A grunt was all he got for a response.

"Kai-" he began once again, before ducking to avoid the flying sugar container.

"What's your problem today, Kai?" Tyson asked angrily, standing up from his seat. Kai stood from the table and left.

"Don't worry about Mr. Sourpuss guys," I began, trying to reassure their worrying faces, "he'll be fine. I'll talk to him at the stadium today." I gave them a fake smile and finished my breakfast.

Destiny's POV

The light of the stadium shined straight into my face as I sat in my seat watching another two teams battle for a spot in the finals. Sighing, I couldn't take my mind off of how badly I treated Kai yesterday. I glanced around the stadium seats hoping to find him. A few minutes later, I spotted his blue hair through the crowd, seeing he was with Rei.

Maybe I should talk to him? I thought quietly to myself. I nodded, telling myself I'd talk to him as soon as he was alone.

Once I saw Rei leaving, I rushed up to Kai's row, receiving more death-glares from people from the crowd who were trying to see the match.

"Kai?"

I didn't get a response. Oh, what a surprise.

"Kai, can I just talk to you?" I asked pleadingly.

At this point, I'd be really happy to tell you that he forgave me and we became friends. Well some of it happened, just not the part where he forgives me and we become friends.

"Fine." I muttered, leaving him and going back to my seat to watch yet another boring round of the semi-finals.

&&&&&&&&&&&&&am p;&&&&&&&&

After the match, I started to walk back to the hotel, ready for my first intense workout, scheduled by Robert in… 3 minutes?!

"Great!" I shouted to myself. A few people turned to stare at me strangely, but I shrugged them off, starting to turn my walk into a sprint. I mean, I'd already missed the rest of our work-outs due to `unavoidable socials' elsewhere.

It wasn't my fault; really. Anyways, back to me running back to the stadium.

I sprinted my legs off towards our hotel's weight room. Reaching the elevator, I pressed the big squared button. Quickly, I glanced at my watch.

"7 minutes laaate!" I waited, heading for the stairs with impatience. One flight, then two… Soon all seven! =D

Panting heavily, I finally reached the door to the weight room. I opened it and-

BAM!

I had bumped into someone; literally.

With great frustration, I shut my eyes and let out a piercing scream.

Okay, that felt good!

When I opened my eyes, the first thing I saw was Johnny grinning from ear to ear.

"You owe me 10 dollars, Enrique!" he announced triumphantly, pumping up his one un-injured arm. I just sat there, confused, butt-hurting, while Enrique paid his debt.

"I don't-"

"I bet him 10 bucks that you wouldn't even try to get here on time." Enrique sulked.

"I won." Johnny once again announced.

"No way…" I replied with sarcasm. I then took the time to look at who I bumped into a moment ago.

"S-sorry, Rei!" I stuttered apologetically, helping him up from the ground.

"It's okay," he answered, brushing himself off, "you just scared me; that's all…"

I nodded, ready for my training session.

"Actually, I'm here to talk to you, Destiny." Rei explained, "is it okay if I just talk to her for a bit?" he asked the team, mostly asking Robert.

"I suppose," Robert sighed, "but Mannings, if you miss the next session I swear-"

"Calm down, Robert…" Oliver sighed. I followed Rei to the lobby (using the elevator this time!) and through the halls.

"Actually, I wanted to talk to you about Kai. He's been acting weird lately." He explained, "Do you know why?"

"No." I lied. Rei gave me a disapproving look.

"Come on, Des. I know you're lying. Kai didn't act so pissed before you and him went off after the match yesterday."

"Okay we went for a drive." I spat out stubbornly.

"And?"

"And he crashed and the glass and the choices with the walking and the magazine and the freaky tour guide!!!!!" I said a bit louder than usual, very quickly.

Rei sweatdropped, "Well… That tells me a lot!"

Okay… I'm REALLY REALLY sorry for the long wait you guys, but life's been hectic and stuff. I thought I'd stop short there because you REALLY deserved another chapter. See how nice I am? Anyways read and review!
