Okay, this is my first fic, and be nice.
Disclaimer: I would seriously want to own Beyblade and its characters but that would only happen in three million years time. So until then, Beyblade is not owned by me, but I do own Kaori and the other characters you might meet later on.
Read and Enjoy!
Chapter 1: Meet Kaori!
"Why do we need a new team member?" Tyson asked for the three hundred and seventh time.
The Bladebreakers, except for Kai, groaned. "The coming up world tournament's rules changed, so we're getting a new teammate today," Ray answered patiently, but Hilary was not so patient.
"This is the last time you're asking, Tyson, so get your funeral money and location ready when you ask again!" she screeched, then in a completely new change of tone, "Max, who's the new guy? You said that you knew them."
All ears perked up. Max shook his head lightly, blonde hair ruffling, "Not personally, just that I've heard the name somewhere before, back in America."
"So you mean we're getting a celebrity on or team?" Tyson drawled slowly, and everyone stared at Max, ready for an answer.
He shifted and nodded meekly, "I guess."
Just at that exact moment, soft footsteps were heard outside the stadium. Everyone looked at one another and nodded. Their new member was here.
A girl entered through the glass doors. The first thing Kai noticed about her was her blackness. She had her jet black hair tied up and was wearing black jeans and a black t-shirt with a long violet gash on the side for extra effect.
Holding a map in front of her, she rotated it around as if dumbly searching for an awkward position. She lifted her head and her lilac eyes met the Bladebreakers and raised an eyebrow.
"…Gosh Kai, aren't we lucky. We got your twin sister as an extra member."
Tyson couldn't resist commenting and burst into peals of laughter. The girl muttered something under her breath and she and Kai presented him with two death glares with twice the power of a normal one and he was wise enough to shut his mouth.
"Are you the new teammate?" Max broke the uneasy silence addressing the girl in Japanese. She replied something in a foreign language but halfway stopped and her lips mouthed some more words until she slapped herself on the head.
Looking apologetically at them, she nodded her head and replied something else. Kai's gaze snapped up to hers. He growled something to her and she chirped something back.
The rest of the team stared from one teen to another. The short conversation ended and Kai resumed his usual routine of ignore everyone and lean on the wall.
Finally, the girl turned to the others, "Sorry 'bout that. Had a bad language mix-up. I forgot how to speak Japanese, spoke too much Russian…"
Hilary dismissed it with a wave of her hand, "That's okay, you must speak heaps of languages then. I'm Hilary by the way."
"Kaori. I was told to come here by this guy to meet with a new team and-" she paused, "THERE'S ONLY ONE GIRL!"
Ray shifted uneasily and opened his mouth to say something but Tyson beat him to it. "Well, you're a girl in an all boy team, and besides, Hilary's only here because her bro, Kenny is here. I still don't believe that Mr Dickenson let a girl be on the team!"
"What he means is that you're going to be the first girl on our team, "Ray said hurriedly, and Kaori cocked an eyebrow.
"Well, good luck on getting another person then," Kaori replied calmly and turned to leave when Mr Dickenson himself walked through the doors.
"Hello Kaori," he greeted the scowling girl, "I came here to see how you are getting along with the Bladebreakers."
"They're all guys," she told him flatly.
"Well, I suggest that they test-battle you first because after all, you were chosen as the champion of the tournament we held," he confirmed cheerily, leaving the stadium again and Tyson whooped and raced to the beydish.
"Whoa, Tyson," Ray pulled him back, "I think Kai should be the one to battle her because he's the one most likely to see right through her talents." Tyson opened his mouth to protest but stopped himself when Hilary looked at him sternly.
Sighing, Kaori stepped up to the dish as did Kai.
"3…2…1…Let it rip!"
Two blades hit the dish, one blue and the other violet. Almost instantly, Kaori's blade slammed into Dranzer forcefully, knocking it out of balance for a few seconds. She's good, Kai thought as it rammed into Dranzer again.
"Time to end this! Dranzer, blazing gig!"
Dranzer became engulfed in flames as it charged towards the violet blade. Kaori simply stared at her soon-to-be demolished blade and at the last minute, it too was covered in something. This time, not fire, but ice.
As the two blades collided, invisible ripples wavered in the air and both bladers gazed at the cloud of dust that had appeared in the centre of the dish. The shadows became visible, the as the fog cleared, the result was clear.
It was a tie.
Tyson, Hilary, Max and Ray gaped at Kaori as she picked up her blade.
Kai growled. "You're in."
Kaori smirked, "I always knew boys were wimps."
"Cool, a girl on the team!" Hilary cheered, and Kaori cocked an eyebrow and turned to head out of the stadium.
"Hey, wait… Kaori, what's your last name?" Max called.
Kaori stopped but remained calm. "Nishurake, why?"
"Um, have you been to America?"
"Heaps."
"So you're related to the Kaori Nishurake?" Max asked, wringing his hands.
"Yeah, that's me."
Max gaped at her. Tyson and Ray looked questioningly at him. "Who is she, Max?"
Kaori ignored them and stepped out through the glass doors.
Max finally seemed to regain his senses. "The Snow Dragon, a.k.a Kaori Nishurake, world champion snowboarder…"
Kai stared at him. A girl on his team was bad enough, but a champion celebrity was even worse.
