Brothers best friend / KAVETHAM

Both of them?

Soon enough a loud voice echoed throughout the whole stadium, and a loud cheer rang out too when the audience had realized it was time for the two bikers to race.

"Thank you for the wait ladies and gentlemen, today we're presenting none other than the incredible bikers who've broken too many records to even name!

And as you all know, the one's we're speaking of are...

Alhaitham and Cyno!"

The voice from the speakers shouted out their words, and as the people attending heard the men's names they roared even louder than before.

Even Collei cheered when the names were announced.

But of course, Kaveh didn't even budge,

he didn't let out a single noise beside's frowning at the mention of Alhaitham's name.

The two bikers lined up at the race track, Alhaitham was mounted on a green kawasaki ninja 650 while Cyno had a purple BMW S1000RR.

Despite Kaveh sitting in the bleachers a bit away from the two, he could almost feel the tension between them but perhaps there was a tad of excitement in the bikers too.

The count down finally began, the race track was huge and they needed to drive 4 laps each. There were also very intense turns which awoke slight worry in the stadium.

This race track was a more dangerous one, it was quite difficult to get permission to use it but it seems Cyno and Alhaitham were allowed to use this due to their fascinating skills.

" THREE...TWO... "

The build up was insane, the tension growing even more and more, both in the bleachers and down by the bikers.

Their engines started and began whirring, the two men's grip was firm and they were ready for this race to begin.

" ONE!!! "

The audience shouted and cheered when they watched the two take off at an insane speed, they were both extremely skilled and smooth, it was almost satisfying to watch.

Kaveh's eyes had automatically gotten glued to Alhaitham without noticing.

"Damn, he's good..."

Kaveh thought to himself with a slight frown, whether it being due to fondness, jealousy or just pure hatred since he wanted Cyno to win.

Collei sat beside him and stared intensely at the bikers, switching her gaze from one to the other. Despite being focused, her bubbly smile was still showing but it was leaning towards an excited smile now.

Cyno and Alhaitham made it to a turn, with Alhaitham being ahead of Cyno.

The audience silenced and got worried if they would be able to take that crazy turn.

Even Kaveh had bit his lower lip and leaned forward, watching closely.

A loud accelerating sound was heard from their bikes.

Collei didn't even wanna look, she placed her hands infront of her face in case anything happened.

They both managed the turn, and there came a loud sigh of relief from everyone watching. But of course, there are another turn to come and more laps to do, the worry isn't completely faded yet.

The blonde leaned back in his seat again and rubbed his temples in relief.

"Did they make it?"

The girl asked, her voice was slightly muffled by her hands.

Kaveh looked at her and his lips formed into a very small smile, if you could even call it a smile, that is.

"Yeah, they made it. You can look."

She removed her hands slowly and let out a breath she didn't realize she was even holding in.

Kaveh made a small nod before returning his gaze to the race track.

The tension on the track must be extremely overwhelming if it could be sensed all the way up to Kaveh, it was almost as if you could see their glares at each other despite their helmet visors hiding their faces.

The next turn was approaching and it seemed like the audience's worry had let go slightly, though of course, the worry was still there to feel.

They took the turn, it seemed like Cyno's bike was declining a tad but it seemed like he was gonna manage it, he knew how to handle a bike.

Collei didn't look away this time since she knew they had taken the last turn successfully but as soon as she noticed Cyno's bike she closed her eyes and looked down at her feet.

Kaveh might also have looked away at some point when he too, noticed what was happening.

Cyno must have begun sweating when that happened, it should have been scary for sure since Alhaitham was right beside him and would have knocked both down if his bike wouldnt have managed.

Alhaitham noticed it and let Cyno take the outer spot of the track, since he was ahead of the other he slid over to the inner part in front of him and gestured for Cyno to take the outer so the turns wouldn't be so extreme for him.

Cyno noticed it and nodded as a thanks, he took the outer lane and they both kept competing as if their lives were on the line.

They got to the start line again, and the last lap started.

This lap, the audience was quiet and the aura was almost suffocating due to the tension.

The two fought to get ahead of the others, it was almost as if their engines would break due to everything.

Kaveh and Collei were leaned forward in their seats and stared intensely at them, they didn't even dare to blink in case they missed anything.

Then Kaveh realized, where the hell is Tighnari?

The red eyed man began getting worried and tried to keep his focus on the race instead.

"His bike maybe just malfunctioned a little...its fine."

He comforted himself, his brother is very careful on the roads so nothing could have happened...right?

Kaveh snapped back to reality when he saw a turn approaching, everyone in the audience had let go of the worry since the bikers already managed the turns before every time but Collei and Kaveh didn't stop worrying in the slightest.

Alhaitham was still ahead of Cyno and they both got to the turn but...something felt wrong, what was the feeling?

Kaveh could sense something was wrong and scanned the men for any problems, he was hoping it was just a strange feeling and nothing actually would go wrong but Alhaitham's biker began tilting too much, his bike was declining at its fullest, it couldnt manage another turn. And somewhere along with that, his brakes must have declined too.

Alhaitham immediately understood what was happening and hit his brakes but it wasnt possible, it didnt work. He began panicking and tried to guide his bike up again but surely, it was too late to fix that.

Cyno had also realized what was happening at this moment, and perhaps the two others in the bleachers watching had too.

Cyno stopped his bike to help the other but just a moment after he climbed off his bike, Alhaitham's bike was done for, he flew off his bike onto the hard pavement at a terrible force, meanwhile his bike got crashed into a wall, it parted into maybe 3 pieces. His bike was done for, but was he also done for?

Tighnari

"What do you want?"

Tighnari scowled, he couldn't see anything but darkness and it was cold in whatever room he found himself in.

"Isn't it obvious? We want you to help us get a hold of your dear friend Alhaitham."
