So my first ever story is here! I will update it as often as I can, but I do have a normal human life so who knows if I'll update after a day or after a week. Please enjoy, and note that spelling Japanese names is quite difficult. Okay, onwards!

Time was ticking.

Presious time.

Time that could be spent doing something more useful than what I am doing now.

Battling. Writing. Meeting people. Talking. Traveling. Walking. Almost anything.

But no, I chose to sit here and wait around for something.

Something to happen.

Finally, I gave up.

I got up. I decided that it was time to leave Koma village.

I quickly grabbed my bag. I had packed it a long time ago, thinking that I would soon be leaving, but I never did use it.

I decided I should have one more quick battle with Hyoma before I leave, not knowing the next time I would come back.

I walked, okay I'll be honest, I ran, to Hyoma's house.

I knocked on the door.

"Hey, what's up?" Hyoma said.

"Battle..." Was all I could get out. I was still panting form the run.

I noticed Hyoma's gaze switch from me to my bag on my back.

"You decided to go?" Hyoma asked. I nodded. I noticed tears filling Hyoma's eyes. I was the closet person to him after Gingka left.

"It was akward, just standing there staring, but after I had steadied my breathing I said, "I think I'm ready."

Hyoma and I hugged, and we stayed like that for a while. Then we finally both let go.

"I think I can manage one last battle," Hyoma said.

"Challenge accepted," I replied. We walked over to the private stadium we had made. It was hidden from view, hiding behind trees.

We both pulled out our launchers.

"Let it rip!"

It was a few minutes later when my bey, Black Unicorn, kicked Hyoma's bey, Rock Aries, out of the stadium.

I pumped my fist in the air while Hyoma picked up his bey.

"If you keep battling the way you do, then you'll do just fine," Hyoma said.

"You think so?" I asked.

"I know so," Hyoma replied.

I didn't let Hyoma know that I wasn't, and haven't ever used my real strategy. I had a special one, one only Black Unicorn could do.

"Of course, there's always room for improvement," Hyoma said. I merely nodded. I knew that already. There's no reason to tell me again.

"Well, look's like this is the last battle for a while," I said. Of course I was sad to go, but I was also really excited to go out on my own and meet new people. Hyoma, yeah he's great, but I didn't need to make friends with him. We just kinda had someone to talk about with each other. Hyoma's never really understood why I never went out of the village much. Why? Because I didn't want to be regonized.

I look a lot like my older brother, and my older brother is the person everybody knows and is always talking about. There's never a mention of me, his sister. His younger sister.

Gingkai Hagane.
