Merry Christmas!
Idol here and welcome to the sequel of Beyblade Burst Arc-V, Beyblade Burst Arc-God! This one will be a lot bigger than Beyblade Burst Arc-V and I hope will be more successful. Beyblade Burst Arc-V was just all over the place. I will try to make this at least a bit more organized and the plot won't be something too crazy either. But that doesn't mean it won't be less exciting!
This chapter took me a long time and that's because I was thinking of plot twists that I could have thrown in there but I didn't. Meh.
Anyway, enjoy the chapter!
P.S. A message to Friend, who keeps reviewing Beyblade Burst Arc-V, I really appreciate your reviews and I am planning to use some, if not most, of your ideas. Maybe could you make a Fanfiction account so we could PM each other? Then your ideas wouldn't be visible to the whole internet and they could be kept a secret. It would also be useful for you since people usually ignore reviews given by Guests and you are technically reviewing as a guest user at the moment. Its just a suggestion so if you don't want to then just ignore it!
Review! Favorite! Read!

Yuya breathed in the fresh air in big gulps. Gods, it was such a relief to be out from that plane. The ride took hours! With Valt beside him, they started checking out the local cafes, starving from the trip.
You see, Yuya and Valt had been scouted by an international Beyblade Club called BC Sol after the nationals. They were scouted by the manager herself.
Yuya didn't play in the nationals. He was content just watching, honestly. But one day, Shu's shoulder broke down in the middle of a team battle and it was his turn to go up next, so they sent in Yuya. Yuya beat the whole team with his Bey, Pendulum Odd-Eyes. The manager of BC Sol has had her eyes on him ever since, apparently.
But the Nationals weren't always fun. Like, for example, Shu got out in the semi-finals, defeated by Lui Shirasagijou, the number 1 Blader in Japan and the person Shu was always training so hard for. Shu not only lost, but Spriggan broke as well. Straight in half. Yuya was worried that it might affect Shu but he said that he was fine. Shu did grow a bit more depressed though. His anger at not being able to face Valt in the finals led him to join a club in America called the New York Bulls. That's what motivated Yuya to try out for BC Sol with Valt.
But of course, Valt lost his way. AND he lost the map to the training center too.
Two hours of walking later, they came across what looked like a Beyblade park. A bunch of kids were there and so was this really tall dude. He had spiky green hair with yellow highlights. He wore a sleeveless green jacket with gray fur lining on top of a ripped black shirt that exposed his midriff. He had a purple belt, dark brown pants, and black boots and gloves. The kid, who looked like a gangster, to be honest, seemed like he was taunting the other kids.
"Is that all you've got for me?" He yelled, making everyone around him wince. "If so, then I'm wasting my time. Bye, losers."
"Wait!" A blue streak dashed up to the gangster. Yuya looked beside him in surprise to see that Valt was not there.
"Don't leave!" Valt was not in the gangster's face.
The kid wrinkled his nose. "And what do you want?"
"I challenge you to a battle!" Valt declared, holding up Victory Valkyrie. "If I win, you leave everyone alone, understand?"
The kids were murmuring amongst themselves now. One kid even went up to Valt and asked him to stop. "Sisco Karlisle's just too strong," He pleaded. "He'll crush you!"
Valt just smiled at him. "Don't worry. I got this covered."
"Valt!" Yuya had gotten to the Bey Stadium. "Are you crazy? We have to get to BC Sol right away or we'll be late and we don't even know where it is! We can't waste time!"
"You're forgetting," Valt countered. "I made it to the finals in the Nationals. I'll take care of this kid like that!" He snapped his fingers.
"Huh. So you have some skill." The gangster, now identified as Sisco, snarled. "Well, I'll have you know that the Bladers from your country are really nothing special. It would be no problem to reach the finals. And didn't you win the finals, or were you a loser in that too?"
"Ok, now you're getting it!" Valt shouted at Sisco. "Victory Valkyrie will put you in your place!"
"Say that to Kreis Satan!" Sisco held out his Bey, Kreis Satan 2Glaive Loop. Victory Valkyrie palled in comparison to its glory, which Valt noticed, but ignored.
"Good luck…" Yuya murmured. Yuya had seen this kind of Bey before, on Zarc (Because Yuya could see everything that was happening while he was Zarc), and it took all of Shu's effort to beat Z-Arc. Valt could compare to Shu, but Yuya really didn't think Valt stood a chance.
They walked up to the stadium and got ready.
"3...2...1...GO SHOOT!"
"Rush Launch!" Valt commanded Valkyrie as a blue flare absorbed Valt and Valkyrie, a knight in shining armor riding a dark steed, made an appearance. Valkyrie unleashed its signature move and repeatedly struck Satan with hard impacts. But Satan wasn't even fazed by it. It just seemed to be rolling back into the center.
"What's going on!?" Valt couldn't understand what was happening.
"Hah!" Sisco laughed. "The driver Loop had wheels that prevent Satan from being knocked down! It's the perfect defense type!" Just then Satan took a particularly hard hit from Valkyrie. "Now, it's time to show you my power. Satan!" He expelled a purple aura from his body as Satan's draconic avatar appeared. "CYCLONE LOOP!" Satan drifted around in a circle, dodging Valkyrie's next attack, and then rammed into Valkyrie causing it to go flying. It hit one of the pillars and burst.
"Burst finish, 2-0. Sisco wins," The ref said gloomily.
"Hmph," Sisco huffed while he watched Valt's face get red. "You're really not that good. Hey, maybe you should check on your friend there," He advised, gesturing vaguely towards Yuya, who was picking up Valkyrie with a shocked expression on his face.
"Yuya!" Valt completely forgot Sisco and ran to the surprised Yuya. "What's wron- No!" He couldn't finish his sentence after seeing Valkyrie. There was a huge crack around the middle. It probably could never be used again.
A kid went up to Valt to apologize, but Valt ignored him and looked towards the Bey Stadium. Sisco was standing there, looking amused. This got Valt's blood boiling. "Hey, you!"
Valt ran to Sisco, who towered over the midget. "What's up!"
"YOU WANNA GO!?" Valt yelled in his face. It was in that moment that Yuya realized that Valt had lost his bananas.
"Valt, hold your horses!" Yuya separated the two. "Look at the size of your arms compared to his! Don't make bad life decisions!"
"But-" Valt was about to answer back before Yuya cut him off.
"If you get hurt you'll never be able to Beyblade again!" Yuya pleaded.
"But Sisco here-" Valt gestured to where Sisco was standing-but he was gone. Vanished without a trace. "Why you…"
"Ha ha ha, this is interesting!" A sickly voice wheezed. Yuya and Valt looked down at the kid, who in reality wasn't a kid, but an old man. He wore a pink Hawaiian shirt with gray trousers. He had some goggles not unlike Yuya's on his head, except they were a lot drabber than Yuya's, and he also wore a leather cap. He snatched Valkyrie from Yuya and looked at it with sparkling eyes. "So much potential...and in the hands of such a passionate Blader…"
"Hey!" Valt grabbed for his Bey but the hippie dodged it easily. "Give it back!"
"No can do sir," The geezer wheezed. "Believe me, together we can create miracles! Follow me!" And with that, he scampered off with Valt and Yuya in hot pursuit.
They ran all throughout the city, through winding roads and steep stairs. Yuya and Valt almost couldn't climb the last flight of stairs and Yuya had to drag Valt up the last ten steps. When they got to the top, the first thing that they saw was the brightly colored minivan. They say a leather strap flutter inside, the strap being identical to the one on the old man's helmet. Having caught their prey, they climbed in the vehicle.
They expected to see a food truck or something. They did NOT expect the laboratory-like setup that greeted them.
"SO COOL!" Valt fawned as his eyes shined with excitement. Yuya was also in awe of the technology in this place.
There were lots of computers with 3D model applications open. There were two 3D printers, by which there was a little kid who looked about Toko and Nika's age. He had brunette hair and was pretty forgettable.
There were Beyblade parts hung all over the wall along with diagrams and stadiums. This is where Yuya and Valt found the old man wearing the pink Hawaiian shirt. He was holding up Valkyrie to the Beyblades and was scrutinizing it.
"Hey! Give Valkyrie back!" Yuya looked to his side only to see Valt wasn't there. He snapped his head back to the old man, who was now holding Valkyrie in the air away from a frantic Valt.
"You stole Valkyrie! That's my Bey! Give it BACK!" Valt whined.
"A-ha-ha~ Young kids these days…" The man laughed. "Don't worry, kid. This old man here is a Bey Doctor. I can fix your Bey for you."
"Bey Trainer…?" Yuya was just as confused as Valt. He joined Valt with the old man and the kid came skipping along as well.
"Yeah. Get this, he is the best Bey Trainer in the country!" The kid chimed in. "His name is Raul and he's the official Bey Trainer for BC Sol!"
"No way!" Yuya and Valt had the same reaction. "We're trying out for BC Sol!"
"Seriously? The tryouts were today…" The kid mumbled.
"Kitt, be nice," The old man, or Raul, chided. "They must have gotten lost. It isn't easy to get to BC Sol, after all, a-ha-ha~"
"Yeah, that's what happened!" Valt agreed. "By the way, I'm Valt Aoi! That's Yuya Sakaki!" He gestured vaguely to Yuya who waved. Yuya was just going to let Valt do all the talking, which now that he thought about it, may not be the wisest choice.
"WHAT!?" Kitt exploded. "I basically tore apart the city looking for you! And you're telling me that while I was doing so you got your BEY BROKEN!?"
"Now, now, Kitt," Raul patted Kitt's head, making him groan in annoyance. "You sit with tomato-hair over there and we'll fix up blueberry's Bey over here!"
Kitt snorted while Yuya tried to hide his hair in embarrassment. "Come on, Tomate head~"
"Hey!" Yuya exclaimed as he followed Kitt to the sofa where they bickered.
Yuya and Valt stayed in that van all night. Yuya and Kitt eventually fell asleep as there was nothing for them to do but watch Valt, but it soon got boring as Valt spent an hour at each station. Yuya was woken up repeatedly in the night due to a blue light illuminating the room. Valt was using a very dangerous tool to carve his Bey, with Raul supervising. Yuya briefly wondered if it was wise letting Valt use a tool that could burn and decapitate him, but he fell asleep before he could think on the matter any further. He had gotten almost NO sleep on the flight to Spain due to the chattering midget.

"Yuya. Yuya! Wake up!" Yuya was shaken awake by a very excited Valt and Kitt. "It's finished, Yuya! It's finished!"
"What is…?" Yuya asked as he groggily sat up on the sofa. "Oh, right, your Bey. How did it go?"
"IT LOOKS AMAZING!" Valt practically screamed in Yuya's ear. "Look!" He brought out his new Bey, which included some elements of his old Valkyrie but the wings were more refined and colorful. It had a red chip in the middle as well which Yuya recognized. It looked like the purple chip on Sisco's Bey.
"A new Bey needs a new name, a-ha-ha~" Raul came over. "What will it be called?"
Valt looked at his Bey with a smile. "What do you want to be called, partner?" He softly asked his newly-made Beyblade. Valkyrie twinkled in response.
Kitt laughed. "Seriously? Who talks to their Bey?"
Yuya shot him a murderous look and Kitt immediately shut up.
"I've got it!" Valt exclaimed out of the blue. "Valkyrie told me the perfect name!"
"What is it?" Everyone asked with anticipation.
Valt grinned and held up his new Valkyrie. "Everyone, meet God Valkyrie!"
