Hey everyone! Well, after reading a countless number of Beyblade fanfics,
I've finally decided to try my hand at writing one myself! ^_^ I've only
written Weiss Kreuz fics before, and I hope you'll all enjoy this as much
as I enjoy writing it. I LOVE KAI! Yeah...randomness on my behalf. And as
for yaoi, there's none right now, but I haven't decided if I'm going to add
any romance to this. *shrugs* I'll think about it later! On with the fic!
Disclaimer: I don't own Beyblade. *cries*
The Task of Leadership: Chapter One
"Tyson, you were awesome!"
"Come on Max, we were all awesome. We whipped some serious boo-tay back there!"
Kai shook his head as he listened to the excited chatter of his team. They had just come from a huge victory that scored them a place at the world championships in Russia. Kai closed his eyes and crossed his arms, assuming his standard position. They were currently on the plane to Russia. The trip was scheduled to take a day and a half.
The stoic leader sighed, wondering just how much more he could take from Tyson, the most annoying person he had ever met.
"Woohoo! The food has arrived!"
Kai winced at a mental image of Tyson's eating habits. No doubt he had ordered everything on the menu. Twice.
"Take it easy Tyson. Too much of this airline food could make you sick," Rei said, watching Tyson shovel food down his throat.
"Food? Make me sick?" Tyson sputtered, as he'd never heard of the idea. He probably hadn't. Max grinned and began his meal.
Rei, having had a snack earlier, went to take a seat beside Kai. Although Kai didn't acknowledge his presence, Rei was sure the captain knew he was there.
"Kai? You haven't eaten anything," Rei said, trying to strike up a conversation with the most anti-social person on the planet. Kai said nothing.
"You were really great back there. I think you've taught us well." Rei tried flattery to get him to talk. As if. Kai wasn't that shallow.
Rei sighed and leaned back in his seat, relaxing his muscles. He didn't take it too hard that Kai hadn't said anything. It was something he encountered everyday.
Rei was settling back, when he saw Tyson rise from his seat. In his hand was a plate with a large steak on it. He was heading straight to Kai.
Tyson plopped down in front of Kai and began to eat nosily. Rei suppressed a giggle.
"Tyson, what are you doing? I don't think Kai wants to listen to you eat," Rei said.
"I'm gonna make him talk. I'm not moving until he does!" Tyson replied with his mouth full.
"What exactly do you want him to say?" Rei inquired.
"Yeah, why the sudden urge to make Kai talk?" Max called out from his seat.
"Because he's part of the team too!" Tyson declared.
A moment of silence passed.
"...so?" Rei asked. "We don't bother you when you're sleeping. Talk to him later."
"He's not sleeping!" Tyson stuck his steak right under Kai's nose. "Hey Kai, you want some of this steak?"
Kai opened his eyes in annoyance. "Tyson, get that disgusting piece of dead cow away from me right now," Kai said.
"HA! I got you to talk!"
Kai arched an eyebrow. "Does that give you some kind of joy?"
"It makes me very happy!"
"Simple minds are so easily amused."
Rei laughed.
"Oh yeah? Just what are you implying?" Tyson asked testily.
"If you still haven't gotten the hint, chances are you never will," Kai said dismissively.
"Humph. You're just jealous of my incredible skill."
"Kai? Jealous of you? I find that highly doubtful," Kenny said.
"Hey!" Tyson turned around. "Whose side are you on anyway?"
Kai closed his eyes again and blocked out the sounds of his team bickering. He let his thoughts wander and frowned slightly. Something was wrong. He could feel it.
Why did he have this awful sense of foreboding?
Kai knitted his eyebrow together and his eyes flew open when he heard the intercom come on.
"Attention Bladebreakers," the pilot's voice said. They were the only people on the plane, since it was a private flight. "Please fasten your seatbelts. We're heading into some turbulent air."
Kai buckled his seatbelt and heard Rei doing the same beside him. He looked up at Tyson.
"Tyson, get in your seat right now," Kai ordered.
"Yes sir," Tyson said mockingly, taking his time. Everyone else was already ready.
Kai felt like killing Tyson as he watched him amble to his seat slowly. There was a sense of urgency in the air. "Would you-"
Kai was suddenly cut off as the plane rocked violently. Tyson was thrown to the other side.
"Tyson!" Rei, Max, and Kenny yelled in unison.
Kai quickly unbuckled his seatbelt. He stood, but nearly stumbled as the plane lurched violently again. Kai grabbed a hold on the seat in front of him.
"Kai! What're you doing?" Rei asked frantically.
"Tyson needs help."
"But you'll get hurt! I'll go help Tyson," Rei said, surprising himself by how much he cared about the well being of Kai.
Kai glared down at him. "I have a responsibility to protect my team. And you have an obligation to obey your captain, Rei. Stay here." Without another word, Kai was making his way down to Tyson.
Kai unsteadily reached Tyson, who was struggling to stand after the impact.
"Kai...the plane," Tyson said weakly. Kai pulled Tyson to his feet.
"Come on. You have to get in your-"
The plane suddenly took a dive and vibrated, slamming Kai into the wall. He hit his head hard. Tyson lost his footing and fell down without Kai supporting him.
"Kai!" Rei unbuckled his seatbelt and ran to Kai. The breath had been knocked out of him, and he was fighting to get back on his feet. He was dazed from hitting his head.
"Kai, are you-"
"Get back in your seat." Kai ground out, pushing himself up.
"You're hurt," Rei said helplessly. He knew Kai wouldn't let him help him.
"I'm fine." Both boys looked up as a loud static filled the air, coming from the intercom. The lights flickered twice, and then went out.
Max screamed as the aircraft shook hard. "Guys! Come back! You're going to get yourselves killed!"
"Kai!" Rei shook Kai, who was on his knees. "Max is right. We have to do something!"
Kai groaned, and then fell back against Rei. "You...go...ow..."
"KAI! Stay awake, dammit! " Rei yelled.
"He hit his head!" Kenny called out. "Keep him awake, Rei. If someone falls asleep with a concussion, they never wake up!"
"Did you hear that, Kai? You'll never wake up!" Rei said. A huge crash sounded and Max screamed again. Rei heard Tyson yell as he skidded across the floor. The plane shook massively.
"Tyson!" Max cried.
"Kai, please listen to me. Do not go to sleep. No matter how much you want to, don't! I care about you way to much to let you die like this!" Rei said desperately.
"Oh... Rei," Kai muttered weakly. Blackness was shrouding his vision. He could faintly hear a voice talking, but couldn't make it out fully. He heard screams and cries becoming fainter as the darkness took over him. He sighed, and mercifully passed out.
