Beyblade Fan Fiction ❯ That's Life ❯ Chapter 4

Phoenix2185- ok, here I am with another chapter Disclaimer: I do not own beyblade nor do I own Leah Khalor who belongs to Morgan and Toni Hikari LaVelle belongs to Bed ‘N’ Breakfast. I do however own Riley Valkov and Elair and Sarwin Althalus   Ok, on with the story   Chapter 4     Kai’s POV     Finally. It’s Friday at last. Talk about this being one long week. Long, and boring. Monday would have been interesting if it wasn’t for that idiot Tyson and his little friend. I had walked into the room with Rei behind me, only to see Mariah stand up and start to shoot a shit load of insults to Leah. I don’t think that those two ever got along. From the moment Leah moved here when we were in 3rd grade there was hostility between the two. I heard someone say one time it was because of Mariah’s hair. Something about Leah hating the color pink. But I think it goes farther than a stupid hair color. Anyway, Leah said some more things back to Mariah that obviously got her pissed. Mariah was about to slap her and start a bitch fight, when Tyson Granger and Toni Hikari LaVelle burst through the door arguing about which ice cream flavor was better. Toni was saying that it was Heavenly Hash, and Tyson said it was Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough. Their little argument caught the attention of everyone in the class, including the two feuding females. When they turned around to continue, the teacher walked in and told everyone to take there seats. Yup, boring week. Especially since Riley was avoiding me like the plague, I had no one to tantalize. But, now I’m heading home to hopefully go for a swim. It’s too fucking hot here. Of course, if my Grandfather is going to be there, I think I’ll head straight to my room. Despite what everyone thinks, I live by myself, with only the maids and such. My parents died when I was four, and my Grandfather doesn’t come around very much. Thank God. He’s a good definition of an asshole. I looked up from my thinking when I got to the front door. It’s easy to lose yourself when you’re deep in thought. It seems as if I’ve been doing that a lot lately. One thing that’s really been bothering me though, is where the hell is Tala? And it doesn’t help with what Riley told me on Monday. ‘As for where Tala is, no one knows.’ I snapped out of it again when the butler spoke to me. Man, I gotta stop doing that. “Sir, would you like me to take your bag?” he asked wile he straightened the shoes that were by the door. “Yes. I’ll be by the pool, take my meal out there later.” I told him as I made my way up the stairs. I undressed and put on my swimming trunks and grabbed a towel from my bathroom that was connected to the back of my room. I take pride in my room. When I first moved here with my Grandfather, he allowed me to decorate it myself. There’s a kings sized bed against the far wall with black sheets, pillows, and comforter. The walls are a dark burgundy covered with posters of bands and one of a phoenix. Along the other wall is my oak dresser with some of my belongings on it. I sighed, where the hell was Tala? I walked downstairs and out to the pool without bumping into the maids, which was a good thing because if I had, they would have hounded me with questions about if I would like something to eat, or would I like something to drink. Would you like your pillows fluffed (O.o I wish I had someone to puff my pillows…), would you like a better towel. The list goes on and on. But thankfully, I didn’t. So I should stop thinking about that and get in the pool like I came down to do (lol sry if Kai seems a little out of character.) I was just about to dive into the clear water, when one of the maids came out. “Master Kai, there is a phone call for you.” She said as she handed me the phone. I took it and nodded, signaling her to leave. “This had better be good.” I growled into the phone. “Uh, hehe Hi Kai… hey, that rhymed. I’m a poet and I didn’t even know it.” I rolled my eyes. “Tyson, what the hell do you want?” “Huh? Oh yea, we’re all going to the beach and were wondering if you wanted to come?” I thought about it for a sec. Hanging at the beach? Or being cased around by a bunch of maids wanting to fluff my pillows? (o.O) oh, what the hell (he seems to have taken I liking to the word hell lol) “Yea, fine.” “Ok, call Riley and see if she wants to come too. Ok, bye.” What the… “Hold on a sec. Why don’t you call her?” “Umm, because I forget what her number is, and the last time that I called her, she almost killed me. Don’t ask why.” “Well get someone else to call. Besides Tyson, why would she want to go to the beach? She went home early today after all.” “Your number is the only one I can remember and I don’t want to look them up in the phonebook. Will you just call her please?” he’s noting but a fucking lazy ars, I tell ya. (lol that was funny) “Fine. Oh, and Tyson. You just gave me a reason to call you an idiot.” I told him before I hung up. Great, now I have to call the little she devil. I grabbed my towel and headed up to my room…again.     I made it upstairs without any run ins, and pulled a shirt on. I sighed and picked up the phone. I punched in the digits and waited for someone to pick up. I was just about to hang up when someone answered. I recognized it as Riley’s mom. “Hello?” “Hello Mrs.Valkov, it’s Kai. Is Riley or Tala there?” I asked wile I did the buttons on the front of my shirt up. “No…” came her hesitant answer. “Didn’t Riley tell you?” I stopped buttoning. “Tell me what?” “Oh dear. During the summer my husband and I got a divorce (I know their supposed to get a separation first but, just go along with it.). Riley stays with her father in a town about, oh I don’t know, twenty miles north of Bakuton on the weekends. And as for Tala… about a week after we told them, he disappeared. Nobody has heard from him since and I’m so worried. Kai dear, if you hear anything, and I mean ANYthing from him, let me know ok?” Tala’s gone? Riley’s not even in Bakuton? She didn’t tell anyone? Holy fuck. “Yea, ok. I’ll let you know if I hear anything.” “Thank you dear. And I thought Riley told you guys. She told Johnny, I know that. I don’t know why she didn’t tell anyone else.” “Well, uh, thanks. Bye.” “Good bye.” After she said goodbye, I hung up, what she said still sinking in. I continued to stand there before I snapped back to reality. I finished getting ready and headed out to my black viper (sry guys, I can’t think of anything else) and drove down to the beach. When I got there, everyone was standing around waiting for me and a no show Riley. As I walked up behind them I heard Tyson. “…Kai to call her.” The look on Johnny’s face was priceless when Tyson said that and when he saw me. “Hey, what took ya so long dude?” Enrique asked as he stood up from leaning on the hood of someone’s car. I shrugged in response. “Where’s Riley? You did call her didn’t you?” Tyson asked right in my face. I’ve never had a bigger erg to punch someone. “She’s not coming.” I said, looking right at Johnny. “What? Why not?” I gritted my teeth. Hitting Tyson right now would not be a good idea. “She took too long answering and I told her to hurry the hell up and she said fuck it and hung up on me.” I told them with a shrug, still looking at Johnny who was looking right back. “Nice gonin hot shot. Come on guys.” Leah said before grabbing her bag and heading down over the hill to the beach fallowed by everyone else excluding Johnny and myself, before he too fallowed.   After beating the shit out of Johnny and Enrique at volleyball, I was laying out on my towel catching my breath and scoping out today’s beach females, Johnny doing the same thing. I propped myself up on my elbow and looked over at him. “You have some explaining to do McGregor.” I said as he looked over. “What’s there to explain?” he asked as he took a drink of water. “Why the hell Riley didn’t tell anyone about her staying at her fathers and that Tala’s missing in action?” “She didn’t tell any of you guys because she didn’t want your pity. I tried to tell her to tell ya’s, but she wouldn’t. Just give her time.” He said as he settled down in his own towel signaling that the conversation was over. I too lay back down. I was just dozing off, when I heard a loud ‘SMACK’ fallowed by my chest stinging in pain. “What the fuck!” I yelled as I shot up and found a beach ball lying on the other side of me. I pick it up as I looked around. And there was Tyson and Toni standing there with a look of horror on their white faces like they had just seen a ghost… or their life flashing before them. I heard Johnny chuckling beside me as he gave them their warning. “I advise you two to start running for your lives, and I’d run fast if I were you.” Toni and Tyson looked at each other before looking back at me (who was glaring daggers at them lol), then at each other before throwing their arms up in the air and started running for all they were worth as I got up and started chasing after them. “DIE!” I yelled as I jumped to catch Tyson but at the last second, he slipped in the sand and fell causing me to go flying through the air and land with a ‘thump’. Note to self, kill Tyson, and don’t eat anymore sand. Tyson’s laughing got me up again as a started the chase again. “AAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!”         Meanw hile     Riley’s POV     I probably look a mess running down the street crying. This was all a mess. Whatever happened to my happy family, and my happy life? I was brought out of my thinking when I ran smack into someone, falling backwards on my behind. I sniffed and tried to wipe my tears away as I apologized. Sniff. “I’m so sorry. Are you ok?” “I’m fine, but are you ok?” a male voice asked as two of his fingers lifted my chin up so I could look at him. And look at him I did.         Phoenix2185- Dum Dum Dum. Lol who do u think it is? Oh, well, hopefully you’ll find out soom. Well, I’ll talk atchas later   R&R plz                              &nb sp;
