For the Love of a GoddessChapter 1: Can we meet them?
Mr. Dickinson came to the door of a large Americanized Japanese home and knocked on the door. It's been a while since he's been here. Not since his daughter-in-law died in a car accident, and he wanted to wait for his grand-daughter to awaken from the coma she was in from being a passenger in the car.
"Just a minute!" shouted a woman from the other side.
He could hear her running from a distance towards the door until she came to stop.
"Who is it?" she asked.
"It's grandpa." He answered cheerfully.
"Grandpa?" she asked. She quickly opened the door to reveal herself. "Grandpa it is you!" she shouted cheerfully, wrapping him a big hug. "How have you been?"
"Oh I've been fine dear, just fine." He answered. "However the main person who should answering that is you. It's nearing that time of the year and I worry about you Leena."
"Oh grandpa, don't worry about me! I'm doing just fine!" She began counting on her fingers, "I've got my health in check, I watch what I eat, I go in for a physical every month, I check my weight every week, I have a regular teen life, and I did I mention I'm a total cutie?"
He began to chuckle at her last remark. Indeed, his granddaughter has grown a lot from when he last saw her. It's been nearly ten years, and she developed essentially well over that time. She grew taller, her burgundy hair appeared to be longer in its messy bun, and the number of bracelet jingles on her wrists had abundantly increased!
"Well now..."
"Hmm?"
"Are we going to stand in the door way all day? Or are you going to introduce your old grandpa in?"
"Oh yeah, yeah, of course! Come on in grandpa I want you to see my team. They've changed a lot since you last saw."
"Really?"
"Hmm mmm. I bet we can even wipe the map with your team."
"Oh really, Leena? Is that a challenge?"
"You bet your bowl hat it is!!"
"Leena?" came a woman's voice. "Who was that at the door?"
"It's grandpa!" shouted Leena below the stairs. "Tell your husband his father's here!"
There was a frustrated sigh from the top of the stairs, and the woman Leena was talking to soon appeared.
She looked of a woman of high class and elegance, and wore a beautiful embodied gown of green and gold.
"Charles! What a surprise!" she admitted while proceeding down the stairs.
"Charlotte. It's always a pleasure." said Mr. Dickinson.
"Why didn't you call ahead of schedule?" she continued. "We would've placed Leena in some decent clothing."
"What's wrong with what I'm wearing?!?" she demanded.
She wore a white short-shorts and a silver tank top that matched her eyes. And white Keds (shoes) with a silver sole.
"It's not like I have to dress up for any one I'm not going any where today." She stated.
"A Young lady should always look her best, no matter what." responded Charlotte.
"Whatever, JUNIOR!!" shouted Leena. "Your wife and your father are done here!!!"
"Leena, that's enough! You will not disrespect your father or myself in such a manner in front of guest ever again!" she finished nastily. "Why can't you be more like your sisters?"
"Because I'm nothing like them!" she snapped. "Those are your kids! The only relation I have to them is through a stamped piece of paper!"
The woman gasped sharply and turned away from Leena.
"I suggest you go now and reflect on your actions just now young lady."
"What ever. Come on grandpa I'll show you my team."
The two left the entrance way down a long hallway leaving behind a very angry Charlotte.
"You know my dear," began Mr. Dickinson. "You don't have to be so harsh to your step-mother."
"It's her fault grandpa! It always is! She's always trying to put me down and make me look bad in front of people. You saw how she talked about me back there! She made me should like a savage! Like, I'm too disgusting to be in her presence or this home! This was my home before she came around!"
Mr. Dickinson stopped walking which caused his grand-daughter to stop as well a few feet in front of him.
"Leena...." He began.
"Oh Grandpa!" she cried, throwing herself into his arms. And within his warm embrace she began to silently cry.
"I miss her...s-so..much." she sobbed.
"I know dear. I miss her as well." comforted Mr. Dickinson. "But I'm sure your mother wouldn't want to know that your giving your step-mother such a hard time."
"(sniff) I know....but she's such a....a...."
"Nuisance?" finished her grand-father.
"Yes! It's like she knows what makes me tick but she does it anyway!"
"Don't worry much about it dear pretty soon it'll all become a cycle and you'll miss it when it's gone."
"Eww, that's creepy."
"HAHAHA! Well either way. How about you show me this invincible team of yours?" he suggested.
"Okay, but don't say I didn't warn you!"
IN THE BEY ARENA
"GO DRAGONIA!!!!" shouted a girl.
"GET'EM ZODIA!!!" shouted another.
"Ahh, astonishing." admitted Mr. Dickinson entering the room. "Those two are quite the bladders."
"Yeah, their two of my best." replied Leena. "Of course, my whole team is the best there is." she bragged.
"We'll see my dear, we'll see."
"ZODIA! TAKE THE DEFENSIVE!!!"
"DRAGONIA KEEP UP THE ATTACK!!"
"I see your team has bit beast." said an attentive Mr. Dickinson.
"Sure do. Even the little one over there has one except she programmed hers into her computer to give it A.I."
My, your team is like the female version of mine." remarked Mr. Dickinson.
"Except better, of course."
The battle between the two girls ended with both blades flying out the ring at the same time to their perspective owner's hands.
"Great match." said the keeper of Zodia.
"Well, whad ja expect from a great beyblader like me?" replied the keeper of Dragonia.
"My, she certainly is full of herself." noticed Mr. Dickinson. Like a certain someone I know on the Bladebreakers. He thought.
"Yeah, that's Ursula. She's the daughter of the current leader of Egypt." informed Leena.
"Really?" he asked.
"Yep."
"Nice to met you sir!" Ursula replied cheerfully.
"Her opponent here is Chelsea. She's the twelve child of the Zodiac Family." added Leena.
"The Zodiac Family." stated Mr. Dickinson. "I've heard of them. They're one of the top 5 richest families of the world."
"That's right." said Chelsea. My family is the top producers of silk and other fine fabric used in the world today."
"Well, it's a pleasure to meet you." he said.
"You too sir." She complied.
"And over there, "continued Leena. "Is the rest of my teammates Michelle and Kimberly."
"Michelle's the one with the curly brown and honey blonde hair and Kimberly's the nerd on the on the computer." added Leena.
"I heard that!" said the girl on the computer.
"Anything special about them?" asked Mr. Dickinson.
""Michelle's the only child for the ambassador of Spain and Kimberly's the only child of the secretary for the queen of England." said Ursula.
"Hmm, well you basically have a team of politics." remarked Mr. Dickinson.
"Not funny grandpa. Not...funny."
"Well any way onto business." started Mr. Dickinson. "How would you girls like to go to Japan to sponsor in a charity tournament against one of my teams?" he asked.
"You mean the one you and Leena were talking about a minute ago?" asked Michelle.
"Mmm hmm."
"Wow, I'm up!" replied Chelsea.
"Count me in two!" added Ursula.
"Yeah, this should be loads of fun!" said Kimberly in a British accent.
"But first things first!" said Michelle sharply. "You gotta tell us, are they handsome?"
"Yeah, and are they strong?" asked Ursula.
"Are they smart?" added Kimberly.
"woah woah woah ladies! One at a time!" he pleaded. "Now let's finish this all over some tea shall we?"
A WHILE LATER AT A LARGE TABLE
"Mr. D....are you going to tell us or not?" asked an impatient Ursula. "So far we've been sitting at this table for an hour and the only thing we accomplish was eating lunch and drinking tea."
"Yes that's true." He admitted.
"So are you going to answer our questions or not?" asked Chelsea.
He grunted a bit as he reached into his pocket to remove a recent photo of the team.
"This is one the best team's I sponsor, The Bladebreakers." He announced.
"The world champs! How awesome is that!" exclaimed Ursula.
"Totally awesome." responded Michelle.
"Wicked awesome." came in Chelsea.
"Battling against them will definitely improve the gaps in my data." added Kimberly.
"So Grandpa, when can we met them?" asked Leena.
"Huh? Meet them?" he asked.
"Yeah they're suppose to be better than us so let's meet them." suggested Leena.
"Are you sure? You know about K...." he said worriedly.
"Don't worry about it. It's only friendly competition." said Leena staring at the picture. "Besides....I've forgotten all about him."
SO Whatcha think? Any good? If you like it, I can always make another chapter........(hint, hint). But I'll make one anyway.
