To Have Someone
What people forgot was he was just as much his Bit-Beast as she was him.
Kai had learned many lessons from Dranzer, starting from their very beginning in the dark corners of The Abbey. Before Tala, Bryan, Spencer, or Ian–before hope. He'd learned always, always, rise from the pain and ruins stronger and stronger. Too never let yourself become worn down by life, no matter how hard it became.
Kai had learned compassion from his beloved phoenix. Kai had seen the evil in people, he saw what desperation and fear made people do. After bloody beatings from guards or punishments following a person he trusted backstabbing him. However, before hate could find perch in his heart, Dranzer would be there, cooing to him. Telling Kai to see things the way that person did, to understand the emotions, fears, and hopes of another.
But one of the most important things he'd learned from Dranzer was friendship. He remembered when he given her up for Black Dranzer. Kai had felt like he'd just stabbed himself in the heart, when he should have been so terribly excited to be the strongest 'Blader. When Kai had realized that he felt so awful because he betrayed Dranzer, like so many had betrayed him, Kai had fallen to his knees and wept bitter tears. When Kai had finally, finally, been reunited with Dranzer, he'd fallen to the ground once more. Crying because he was so relieved Dranzer had taken him back, that she still loved him.
Kai knew better than anyone how having just one person (or Bit-Beast, for that matter) at your side through the darkest moments and when life became so blindingly bright and wonderful could make everything more worthwhile.

What other Bit-Beasts forgot was she was just as much her child as he was her.
She first met him when he was a little boy with large crimson eyes that had drawn her in, in that dark, dark, place. That place where children were trained to be soldiers and taught in the harshest ways. Dranzer had learned strength from her master, she watched him stand his ground, saw how he took everything thrown at him and rose again and again. When he was just a little boy all alone with nothing other than her warmth to cling to.
Dranzer learned to love. There simply wasn't anything else she could possibly call it; that soft, tingling sensation she got whenever her child had smiled or laughed. When her child was hurt and she felt more rage than she thought possible or when she felt tears slide down her own face whenever he cried. Dranzer had seen the men and children that surrounded her child, everything about those people spoke hate. Dranzer couldn't bare to let her child turn into one of them, instead she tried to teach her child compassion. In turn Dranzer had learned compassion of her own for humanity and not just her own child.
But, the most important lesson she'd learned from Kai was loss. When the boy had abandoned her for Black Dranzer, Dranzer could do no more than cry and howl for her missing boy. When he found her once more begging, begging for her forgiveness, Dranzer could not find it in herself to deny him. She had loved Kai; the little crimson eyed boy of the shadows, the fierce world renowned beyblader, her child.
Dranzer knew more than any of the other Bit-Beasts just how much a master (or a child, as she considered him) could mean. Kai, her master, her child, meant the world to her. To be there for him in the most uncertain of times to when his life was so full and lovely, could make everything she went through worthwhile.
