Let us begin

James: 17

Hikaru: 15


In an Underground Cage Ring, two Bladers readied for battle

"3"

"2"

"1"

"Let it rip!"

Two Beys collided with each other at a high speed, one a Dark Wolf and another a Lightening Aquario. The Aquario sent the Wolf fling into the air, cracked, with one move. The Aquario Blader snatched his Bey out of the air and gave his opponent smirk.

"What!?"

"I'll be taking your money now."

"Who the hell are you?"

"James Winter, at your service." James says, pulling out his Cash Counter and saw the number rise.

"Well it's been fun, but I gotta go."

James leaves the Abandoned Subway Station and makes his way down the empty street to a decrepit apartment. He opened he door to his room and flopped down on the couch. A few feet away stood a table where a plethora of replacement parts and repair equipment.

A buzzing to his right woke James up from his nap and looked at his phone's lit screen.

"Hey, I'm at the outskirts of the city. Where are we going to meet?"

James took a moment to think before responding.

"There's a Colosseum that we can meet in. It's also a good spot for training. Sending the location now."

James sent the text message before standing up and grabbing some more bits of clothing, specifically a pair of gloves, a pair of sunglasses, and cloth wrap that he draped over parts of his body. He then made his way towards the Colosseum. Upon arriving he watched the sunset's beautiful orange hue as it lowered.

"Hey, is that you?"

James looks around and sees a Blue Haired Girl looking at him from the stands.

"Hikaru, good to see you again."

Hikaru made her way down and stood in front of James, who stood a few inches above her. Hikaru looked at James and took notice of his new attire. Bandage covering parts of his body and a black shirt that matched his hair. He was also wearing a pair of shades and gloves that covered his hands.

"Good to see you again." Hikaru says.

"You too. You've grown since the last time we saw each other."

"Yeah, so how've you been? We haven't met face-to-face in a while."

"I'm doing alright. Can't really complain at the moment. So, you told me that you're after a powerful Beyblader?"

"Yeah, someone named, Gingka. Do you know him?"

""Yeah, I've seen him around. Why don't we get in some training while there's still light out."

Hikaru nodded at the idea and James stood by and watched her progress.

"Hmm, good power, but a bit slow." James comments.

"Mind giving a demonstration then?" Hikaru suggests.

James nods before pulling out his Bey, Aquario 235H, and launching it. It zipped through the air so fast that Hikaru almost didn't see it when the pillar was destroyed.

"I've perfected what you call "Infinite Assault" to a much higher level. So much so that I have a much greater speed than yours. All you need is a bit of training and practice."

Hikaru listened with interest, and soon they both noticed that the moon was starting to rise.

"I don't know if you have a place to stay, but you're welcome to stay at my apartment." James offers.

"Thanks, that would be nice."

The two started walking to the apartment, and on the way Hikaru decided to ask some questions.

"So, how many points do you have?"

"Uh...I don't actually have any points."

"What? But what you said about your improvements and in all that time I'd have thought that you'd have gotten a lot of points."

"Well, I have something that is similar to points, but I live off of it. Kind of how a number of points allows a Beyblader to join a tournament and such. The number of my...well it lets me pay for rent, food, etc."

"That doesn't sound like a very encouraging life." Hikaru comments.

"Hahaha, yeah well I've grown to live with it."

Soon the two reached the apartment and James led Hikaru to his room. He opened the door for her and followed her in.

"Ok, quick rundown. This is the living room and kitchen, to the left is the bathroom, and to the right is my equipment table. I need to make a call outside so make yourself at home."

James leaves the room and Hikaru starts looking around. The paint was chipping, an exposed pipe was leaking, and the furniture was worn out. She then looked at the equipment table and noticed what looked like a point counter. After further inspection she found out it was money instead of points.

"I guess this is what he was talking about."

James then entered the room with a tired look on his face.

"Hey, you can have the couch, I'm gonna sleep in the tub." James says, making his way to the bathroom.

"Uhh, ok. Good night?" Hikaru says, confused.

James lay down in the tub, thinking about his conversation. Apparently the Dark Nebula Organization was taking notice of his wins, and someone informed them of his contact information. They were starting to get closer and closer, and that wasn't something that James wanted to happen.


[Dream]

"Hello Mrs. Hasama. How are you doing?"

"I'm doing as well as can be expected James, thank you."

"Hikaru was saddened by her loss in the Bey Battle today. I've been trying to help her as best I can."

"Thank you, I appreciate you helping her."

"It's not a problem. Although...recently I've been approached by some people who're interested in me. I may not be here for long."

"Well, even so, I'm glad you've been so helpful. Now if you don't mind I'm getting a bit tired."

"Of course. See ya Mrs. Hasama."


A.N. That's it for the Prologue. I'd imagine that there's a Criminal Underworld for Beys like in the real world but different obviously.

Reviews would be appreciated

Anyways stay awesome guys and gals of the world, and I'll see you next chapter
