Ch. 1
"Why do Tyson and Mariah fight so much?" asked Ray to no one.
"You know, chewing the sweet and sour chicken balls tastes much better than gulping them!" yelled Mariah.
"You eat them your own way! I gulp down my food!" yelled Tyson.
"Grrr. Where are your table manners!" yelled Mariah.
"Sorry if I'm not a fine gentleman in your eyes!" yelled Tyson.
"Can you two stop fighting for one minute?" asked Kai in his cold voice.
"Hmph!" yelled Tyson and Mariah turning their backs to each other.
"Hurry up or we won't be able to go to the American Tournament!" yelled Kenny.
"Be right there chief!" exclaimed Tyson.
'I almost forgot that they are going to the American Tournament.' Thought Mariah.
"Hey guys, you done packing yet?" asked Max.
"I am." Said Ray. "I'm going to take a different plane than you guys, alright?"
"Okay." Said Tyson.
(In the United States)
"Oh boy!" exclaimed Tyson. "This is going to be great!"
"You said it!" said Tyson's grandpa.
"We're going to get to see my mom!" exclaimed Max.
"Yeah, we'll finally be able to meet her!" exclaimed Tyson.
"What's she like?" asked Kenny.
"She's great!" exclaimed Max. "She's one of the best moms in the world!"
"I doubt it." Said Kai.
"What's that supposed to mean?" asked Max a bit angry.
"If she was, she would have been with you all these years." Said Kai.
"She's busy with work." Said Max.
"Still, she shouldn't have let that get in the way." Said Kai.
"Can you be nice Kai? Ever?" asked Tyson.
"Hi guys." Said Ray.
"Hi Ray." Said Max.
"My plane got here early so I got us passes." Said Ray.
"To where?" asked Tyson.
"Take a look." Said Ray.
"Wow! We get to go the place where they study beyblades!" exclaimed Tyson.
"Yup. We have access granted." Said Ray.
(Back in China)
"Very soon I'll have to go back to the village." Said Mariah.
"What's wrong with that Mariah?" asked Kevin.
"I forgot about the limit to the amount of players on a team." Said Mariah.
"Does that mean you're still a White Tiger?" asked Kevin hopefully.
"I guess." Said Mariah.
"Alright!" exclaimed Kevin.
"So are you coming back with us Mariah?" asked Lee.
"Yeah." Said Mariah a little sad.
"What's wrong?" asked Lee.
"I just can't believe Ray will be gone for so long." Said Mariah.
"He'll be back. He always returns." Said Lee.
"Yeah." Said Mariah forcing a smile.
(In the U.S)
'I miss Mariah.' Thought Ray.
"Hey Ray! Wasn't it mean that the All starz tricked us like that?" asked Tyson.
"Yeah." Said Ray.
"Although, the food was pretty good!" exclaimed Tyson.
"Yeah." Said Ray.
"You hate Mariah." Said Tyson testingly.
"Yea-no! I don't hate Mariah!" yelled Ray.
"Just testing you." Said Tyson.
"On what?" asked Ray.
"To see if you were saying yeah without listening." Said Tyson.
"Oh." Was all Ray could say.
(At the White Tigers' village)
"I still can't believe Ray is gone." Said Mariah.
"If you're so desperate to see him, why don't you just go to the U.S.?" asked Kevin.
"It would be really rude of me to just appear in the U.S." said Mariah.
"Not if Ray wants to see you too." Said Kevin.
"What if he doesn't want to see me?" asked Mariah.
"Let me tell you one thing, Ray is hopelessly in love with you. He'd kill himself just to make sure you're happy." Said Kevin.
"I don't think he'd kill himself." Said Mariah.
"He would." Said Kevin.
"Enough about Ray killing himself. I don't want to hear about him being gone forever." Laughed Mariah.
"So are you going to the U.S.?" asked Kevin.
"I don't know yet." Said Mariah.
"If you are, let me know so I can tell the others." Said Kevin.
"Thanks Kevin." Said Mariah.
"No problem." Said Kevin.
(America)
"As soon as I get back to Asia, I'm going to visit the White Tigers' Village to see Mariah." Said Ray.
"That's great and all, but do you remember where the village is?" asked Max.
"Yeah, I still remember." Said Ray.
"Why is it that all you can think about is Mariah?" asked Kai.
"Hey! Knock it off Kai!" yelled Tyson.
"Why should I?" asked Kai.
"Can you be nice for one day?" asked Tyson
"No." said Kai.
"You make so mad sometimes!" yelled Tyson about to punch Kai.
"Hey, easy there Tyson." Said Ray in a calming voice. "It's his decision how to treat people."
"I don't think it's fair how he says all that mean stuff behind your back." Said Tyson.
"Technically it's no behind my back since I'm here." Said Ray.
"Ray's got a point there Tyson." Said Kenny.
"Where were you this whole time Chief?" asked Tyson.
"Upgrading your beyblades." Said Kenny.
"Thanks!" exclaimed Tyson.
