NOTES: Ray is not in this fic. Or he might magically appear, but not right now.
SUMMERY: The boy's have some problems during the festive time.

Max and Tyson were training, but due to the fact it was close to Christmas, they were not completely focused on their blades.

'I think we should go out. Get some fresh air, try to get into the right state of mind, you know?' Max told Tyson, who agreed.

'Yea, no point in training if we're not getting anywhere,' Tyson commented, and they left the shop to go to the park.

'I thought Chief was supposed to be helping us train?' Max asked Tyson.

'Yea, but he had to fix up something or other, I bet he was too tired, he's up half the night with our blades, trying to perfect them in one way or another,' Tyson told him and they saw a kid getting picked on.

'Should we...?' Max was about to ask, but Tyson was laready on the move, so Max followed.

'Hey! Leave him alone!' Tyson cried out, the figure, who was wearing all black and who's face was covered, turned towards Tyson; 'Why don't you pick on somebody your own size?'

'This will end in tears,' Max muttered to himself.

'Well?' Tyson sized the person up.

'You, and him,' The person pointed to Max, who now looked like a deer caught in headlights; 'You will suffer a worse fate than I could ever give you........ You two, and another, will all suffer!' With that the person vanished into thin air, leaving behind a bewildered Tyson and Max.

'What? What was that about?' Max asked Tyson.

'I..... I have no idea,' Tyson said, still surprised. He then shook his head; 'What are we doing? Its Christmas! Who cares what that guy said! He was probably trying to wind us up!' Tyson said.

'Yea,' Max said with a smile, but he wasn't convinced; 'How about we find Kenny?'
'Good idea, I feel like training,' Tyson said and Max toppled over; 'What?'

'You actually want to train?!' Max cried out, surprised.

'Well, yea, I can't have Kai being better than me,' Tyson joked and the two walked to Kenny's home.

'You two!'

The two jump out of there skin and turned round to see Kenny, with his lap top.

'Chief, we were just looking for you,' Tyson said to him.

'And I was looking for you. i know its almost Christmas, but you still have to train, you can take two days off, Christmas Day and Boxing Day. Then also New Years, but that's it. You have to focus! Your the new World Champion, and I am sure you want to keep the title,' Chief told him and he nodded.

'Relax Chief, me and Tyson were out for some fresh air, we couldn't focus, and then we figured we'd look for you,' Max explaned.

'Not to mention meeting some weird guy,' Tyson put in and explaned to Chief what had happened.

Afterwards the Chief didn't know what to make of it, but Max advised him not to worry about it.

'So, are we gonna train?' Tyson asked them, heading towards Max's shop.

'Yea,' Max said cheerfully, he still wondered who the other person was, who was ment to suffer like him and Tyson.

'Is Kai training on his own?' Tyson asked them; 'And where's Ray?'

'Ah, I got an email from Ray this morning,' Chief started; 'He isn't coming here, not over the holidays,'

'What?! Why not?! What's more important than being with his team?!' Tyson exploded.

'Tyson!' Max said, trying to calm the boy down.

'Tyson, he apologised, but as the holiday is about being with one's family, he decided to stay with his own. I see no reason to get angry at him, he hasn't seen his family in a long time, and I am sure he'll train with the White Tiger's,' Chief said, and noticed that Tyson had calmed down he added; 'Kai is going to train by himself, at the BladeSharks warehouse,'

'Wha? Isn't it kinda cold to train in a warehouse?' Max asked him.

'Nah, with Dranzer there'd be plenty of heat,' Tyson told him.

'Whatever the reason, he's not coming,' Chief told them and they walked down to the basement to train.


Kai was on his own in the warehouse, training with Dranzer, contemplating on the last World Championships, how weak he was, how pathetic...............
A beyblade had entered the dish, one that Kai did not recognise. It started to attack, Kai was quick to make Dranzer go on the defensive and strike back, the blade flew out of the dish and into the owners hand. Kai looked over, but the person was in the shadows.

'Who are you?!' Kai cried out.

'You will suffer, as will that blonde haired boy and the baseball cap boy. You will all suffer,' The person said to him.

'Yea right,' Kai said and noticed the person had moved.

'Don't believe me?' The person suddenly moved and attacked Kai, making him fall over.

Kai got up quickly, Dranzer was in his pocket and he kept his eyes on the person infront of him.

'No, why should I?' Kai said and moved quickly to kick the person in the stomach, sending them back into the shadows.

'You will regret this!' The person cried out.

'I'll believe it when I see it,' Kai said, then decided to check the warehouse.
