Eclipse

This is my first attempt at BeyBlade Fan Fiction, so I hope you like it. My favourite characters are Ray and Kai, so you'll find that they get more reading time then Tyson, Max, and Kenny, so I apologise in advance.

Note: The ages of the characters in this story are as myself and my sister see them in the series. Gary is 18. Kai, Ray, and Lee are 17. Mariah is 16. Max and Kevin are 14. Tyson and Kenny are 13. Remember, this is only the view of two people and you may not all agree, but this is their ages in this story.

Disclaimer: I do not own the characters in this story… unfortunately.

"Hurry up, I'm hungry!"

"Tyson, you just ate."

"But we've walked a long way since then and I'm really really hungry!"

Max shook his head, looking back at Kenny. "Remind me not to tell him about the bar fridge in our room."

"Say whaaaat?"

Kenny smiled. "I think he heard you."

Ray chuckled. "I'm surprised you don't pop, Tyson. Keep eating the way you do and we'll be rolling you down the stairs."

Max nudged Kenny. "Let's do it anyway."

At the back of the group Kai narrowed his eyes. Feeling a prickling on the back of his neck he glanced back and spotted Lee leading the White Tigers through the foyer behind them. Lee's eyes were slits, focused on Kai as the BladeBreakers slowed to wait for the elevator. Kai returned his gaze coolly, watching the White Tigers as they approached the front desk to check into their rooms.

"What are they doing here?"

"They were invited as a wild card entry, Tyson," Mr Dickenson told them as the doors of the elevator opened. "They did so well at the Asian Tournament that the board decided to let them attend the American Tournament."

Tyson growled. "You mean we have to battle them all over again?"

"Of course. They will be your first opponents in fact."

"What!"

"Relax Tyson." Kai turned to Kenny; eyes dropping down to take in the laptop clutched against the younger boy's chest. "Dizzi would have had time to analyse the White Tigers data by now, which gives us an edge. We know their weaknesses, so we will be able to exploit them."

"But you've only seen a small part of what they can do," Ray warned.

"Which is where you come in, Ray." Kai glanced at the other, red eyes narrowed. "You know the White Tigers well, so you'll be comparing notes with Dizzi."

"Oh great."

"I heard that."

Kenny flipped open the laptop and looked down at the interface. "He meant it in terms of the late nights, I'm sure."

"I may be a computer, but I do have feelings you know."

"Chief is right," Ray said. "We just had a long flight, I'm tired, and I'm hungry."

Max scowled. "Remind me not to tell him about the bar fridge in our room."

"Actually Max, the five of you won't be sharing a room." Mr Dickenson stepped out of the elevator, leading them down the hall and opening the door at the end. Stepping inside they took in the small apartment, Mr Dickenson gesturing to three of the doors around them. "This apartment has three bedrooms with en suites. One of the bedrooms is mine, and the other two have two beds, though we can easily set up a cot."

"Me, Max, and Kenny!" Tyson called, grabbing the arms of his two friends and charging toward one of the rooms.

Kai and Ray exchanged a look, Ray shrugging. Kai picked up his bag and turned toward the other room. "Whatever."

Please review and tell me if I'm close to the characterisations. Like I said in my introduction, this is my first attempt at BeyBlade Fan Fiction, and I have only seen up to the end of the Asian Tournament, which is why I chose this time period. Please be nice if I did anything wrong.
