Kai’s Birthday: Chapter 7

 

 And so The Day has finally come. Kai decided that it would be best to remove all breakable objects to a place, where they would be safe. You never knew, what could happen with Max and Takao around. And there would be also Kiki, who seemed to be a small disaster and Ivan, who appeared to have similar qualities. Thus, his house looked a bit empty.

 The first person to arrive was Kyouju, closely followed by Miaka. The moment the small boy came in, the door had been opened again and the black-haired girl pounced on the tattooed beyblader.

-         Hi, Kai-Kai! – she chirped happily. – Here’s your gift. – she stopped squeezing her classmate and gave him a small packet. –Say, why don’t you wait with opening the gifts till everybody else gives you their? 

-         OK. – the Bladebreaker nodded.

 As the Demolition Boys stayed at Kai’s house they had seen the whole scene. While Boris seemed to be nonplussed, Yuri clearly was fascinated.

-         She bounces. – he said, mesmerized.

-         What?! – Sergey gaped at his captain.

-         She bounces. – answered Yuri matter-of-factly. – I’ve never seen anybody who bounces.

 His teammates stared at each other, completely baffled. Than Ivan tried to check if his temperature was normal.

-         Just don’t tell me you like her clothes. – he sighed, after finding out that the red-head was perfectly okay. The said clothes were, well, frilly, cute, blue and green.

-         Er... They’re a bit to frilly for my taste... – answered the blue-eyed boy. – Nice colours, though.

 Next to come was Max and the All Stars, who looked a bit strange in something else than their sport clothes. Actually Michael and Emily didn’t look that odd, but Steve seemed to have gotten much smaller without his shoulder guards.  Than came the White Tigers with Rei. Mao had been casting furious glances at Kiki, which clearly meant he did something ‘no-good’. Just a minute later the Dark Bladers teleported in. The only person in formal clothes was Sanquinex, who was wearing a tux.

-         Every vampire has a tux. – he said, when other not-so-elegantly clothed people started giving him dirty looks. – And I have to wear it from time to time or moths will eat it. (Crappy stereotypes...)

 A moment later Takao had come. He was really stunned when he heard he wasn’t last. And than the Majestics came. Ralf, Jean Carlo and Johnny were looking rather happy... and posh. Olivier, however, was smiling in way that said clearly, he thought he was brilliant.

-         Here’s our small gift. – said Ralf. Several men came in carrying a big, old looking desk – very beautiful and expensive no doubt. Than another one came in, this time with a chair, which looked as old and expensive as the desk.

-         I believe my gift will be entertaining. – said Olivier, still looking insanely proud. Takao noticed, that Miaka was giggling. And than a band came in. – A jazz band straight from New Orleans. – announced the franc boy proudly. To the other beybladers surprise Kai was practically stary-eyed.

-         Maybe you could unwrap other gifts? – suggested Takao, after taking a photo of his captain. It definitely was a scene, which should be saved for future generations.

 The jazz band started playing and the beybladers surrounded Kai, curious what the others gave him and how he’d react. First he opened Miaka’s neat, little parcel.

-         Kitsuneko, how did you know I don’t have those? – asked Kai, holding two CD’s up. – I never told you that.

-         But I saw the others and made a list! – Miaka giggled.

-         Oh... – the tattooed boy returned to unpacking the gifts.

-         Kinomiya, I don’t train kendo. – muttered Kai.

-         Ther’s no camellia oil... – said the smaller boy, as though he were playing riddles. Kai blinked.

-         So?..

-         It’s got regular oil and grease... – added Takao in the same tone. You could see Kai wasn’t pleased with himself at the moment.

-         You spoiled my image. – he growled. The blue-haired boy smiled.

-         So you guessed? – he asked sounding happy and innocent.

-         It’s a beyblade care-set Kinomiya-version? – answered the captain of the Bladebraekers.

-         Yeah (great before photo sessions!) – Takao puffed his chest and made a silly face. – That’s what keeps my Dragoon clean and shiny!

-         Cut the ad session! – sniggered Michael, pointing at Kai who was opening the gift from his team and Max.

-         Gundam! – three voices (Kai’s, Takao’s and Miaka’s) said in the same tone, somewhat similar to how religious fanatics might sound.

-         Kai-Kai! You’ll let me read? – chirped the small girl, bouncing excitedly.

-         Me too! – piped Takao up, squeaking like an excited schoolgirl. Kai groped the mangas and was repeating ‘mine’ with a crazed look.

-         I told you he’ll like it. – said Max. The Americans nodded. The captain of the Bladebreakers had composed himself and opened Kyouju’s present. It was a beyblade launcher.

-         Thanks. – he said. Takao groaned.

-         Really Kyouju! You can be sometimes so dense. – he sighed. – He has a whole troop of scientists who can improve his launchers and beyblade.

-         Leave him alone, Kinomiya. – said Kai and patted Kyoujus head. – It’s nice he gave me something.

-         Sorry... – the blue-haired boy scratched his head. – You know I have a big mouth...

 Kai was already unwrapping the Demolition Boys’ gift.

-         Er... – he stared at a cover of a hentai manga. – It’s nice you gave me something...

 The other beybladers stared at the Russian team, who didn’t seem to be embarrassed. Miaka blushed. The dual-hair-colored teen put aside the ‘porn comics’ and opened the White Tigers’ gift.

-         Nice... But I don’t have a truck. – he said.

-         It’s a scarf! – yelled Kiki and received a punch on the head from Rai.

-         And he’s the one who painted that. – growled Mao. ‘That’ was a black siluette of a naked woman. It was hard not to notice as the rest of the scarf was still white.

-         Er... Yeah... Maybe it can be washed of?.. – suggested hopefully Rei.

-         Maybe. – muttered Kai, who was now opening the Dark Bladers gift. Actually, it looked quite nice – like a black vest. But than after all the strange things he received, Kai was quite sure this wasn’t exactly that simple.

T.B.C.
