Kai - sweat drops
Summary - This is set when the Bladebreakers confront the Dark Bladers (from season 1). They are told that an ancient prophesy is going to be fulfilled on All Hallows Eve, one week from then. The Fates, the spirits thought to have controlled a living thing's destiny, are cooking up an evil plot to destroy all humanity and start over the world anew. Sounds good right? Wrong. In their new world, there would be nothing but destruction and death. The Bladebreakers have to somehow save one of their members from being used and from letting the world be destroyed. Sounds kinda easy. Wrong again. Their once friends are now their enemies, and it doesn't help matters that the Dark Bladers are trying to kidnap one of them twenty-four-seven. The only ones they can count on are the Majestics and their own teammates. So, sit back, relax (though I don't think you will be able to ), and have fun reading a story made for just Halloween!

-S-S-S-S-S-
All Hallow's Eve
-S-S-S-S-S-
Kai sat quietly, vaguely listening to the loud roar of people screaming on the TV.
They all were on the train. That is, only the Bladebreakers. Tyson, the loudmouth, Ray, the peaceful neko-jin, Max, the happy-go-lucky of the group, Kenney, the computer wiz, and of course Kai himself, the leader of the bunch of misfits.
They had already gone through two tournaments together and won by some miracle Kai could not figure out. Then again, the Asian and American tournaments were only qualifying rounds to the World Championships. Now they were stuck on an underground railroad train, kind of like a subway-train mix. About two days ago, they had been misguided by an old man on their ship and were left at the harbor somewhere in Europe.
Then, Tyson got the idea to just travel around to get to Russia. Taking trains, busses, even hitchhiking. Sometimes, Kai didn't know if this kid was thinking with his brain or if he was just stupid, but the trip hadn't hurt anyone, except when that strange blader came out of nowhere. He had taken Tyson's Dragoon and fled to an alleyway, where he proceeded to try and destroy it. Then, Ray and Max completely ignored Kai's command to wait and develop a plan. They rushed right in, only to get their own bit beasts wrapped in the mummy-like cloth. It took a few seconds for Kai himself to find a way to beat the weird blader and save his team's blades, but he did, playing follow the leader with his own beyblade. Needless to say, they all were in one piece after that because the blader had disappeared into thin air. So far, he hadn't attacked again.
Kai opened an eye as he heard Kenney scream as Tyson shut his laptop and with Max's help, force the kid to watch that stupid horror movie about vampires and werewolves. The stotic teen sighed and looked out the window, the passing lights on the stone walls making him sleepy as they began their hypnotism routine.
It was a few minutes until Ray came back.
"Guys, we're the only ones on this train. There's no one else here," he said, worry dripping like a warm ice cream cone.
That's when the brakes let go of their own scream, trying to outdo the movie's as it tried to force Ray off of his feet. When it finally stopped, Kai stood up.
"Go and see if the driver's OK. I'll check the navigation room," he said running down the hall.
Ray stood up and walked forwards, sliding the door open with his foot. "Hello? Is everyone alright?" he asked no one as the place was empty. 'Just like the rest of the train. What the heck is going on here?'
Meanwhile, Kai had reached the navigation room, forcing the tightly shut door to open. No one was there. He frowned. 'I have a bad feeling about this,' he thought as he headed back towards the others.
"Is this just a joke, guys?" Max asked getting a little worried. A million things ran through his mind on what could happen. 'Man,' he thought, 'I've been watching too many horror movies.'
"I didn't think Kai was capable of making a joke," Tyson commented but stopped from going further when the lights started blinking out, until it was completely dark.
"Real funny, huh guys?" Kai sneered, looking up.
"Ok, Ok, it wasn't you. Then who could it be?" Tyson asked shrugging his shoulders. He saw Kenney trembling in fear, worry plastered all over his face.
"I don't know. But we're about to find out," Kai said leading the group out of the train.
'Leave it to Mr. Sourpuss to save the day,' Tyson grumbled in his mind. He felt Dragoon shake his head as his bit beast heard his thoughts.
[What? Tyson asked the dragon.
[He's only trying to help, you know? Being a leader is more than just looking good for the team.
[I know that, but it wouldn't surprise me if we ran into the people who did this and Kai handed us over just to let him pass to the next town.
Dragoon shook his head again. [You'd be surprised at just how wrong you are.
[Whatever, Dragoon. He stopped as he saw the topic of their discussion halt, looking forward as four figures came into view.
"Hello, Bladebreakers," one of them said, his S's a little slurred as if he had a lisp.
Surprisingly, to Tyson, Kai spoke up. "You know us. Who are you?" he replied calmly.
"We are those of the night," another spoke, a deep gruff voice.
"That doesn't tell me anything. If you're not going to answer my question, we are through with you," the phoenix said, starting to walk away from the taller four.
"We are called the Dark Bladers," the gruff voice continued, stopping Kai's trek back to the train. "I am Lupinex, and my brother here is Sanguinex. Zom and Cenotaph. We are not your normal, average, bladers. As you can tell." He and the three behind him stepped forward into the light.
The Bladebreakers gasped. It was if they had walked straight out of a scary movie. There before them stood a vampire, a werewolf, a mummy, and a close relation to Frankenstein's monster.
"What are you?" Tyson asked before the thought even registered.
"Like my brother said before, we are those of the night, cursed by our hatred forever," Sanguinex replied. "And we want to battle you." He pointed his finger at Kai. "The tall one is our target."
Kai snorted. He felt as if this guy was speaking as if he were a piece of paper. "Whatever. I'm not battling you. I already have once, and I wasn't really impressed," Kai said turning around and heading back towards the train again. If these guys wanted to have a match with him, they didn't have to hijack a train to do so.
"Then your team will die."
Those words stopped the teen. "What did you say?" he growled, flashing his crimson eyes back at the werewolf, making the being flinch.
"If you do not battle us, then you condemn your team to death," the vampire said, smirking.
"What do you mean by that?" Tyson asked.
"This." With a snap of his fingers, glass walls came down to cut Kai from his team and with the Dark Bladers.
Ray put his hands on the glass before trying to break it by releasing his blade. It did no use, though. It just bounced right off. That wasn't good. Kai was stuck in a large glass box with four freaks of nature.
Kai turned back around and glared at the four before him. "What do you plan on doing? Cutting me up into little pieces with your blades and doing the same for my team? I don't think that it's going to happen," he said, readying his Dranzer. He couldn't hear the others behind him and guessed that the box was sound-proof.
"Actually, the air is slowly escaping from inside here. The longer you take, the less time you have. If you win against us, the walls will open, and we will not hurt your team, and we will let you go. If you lose, then say goodbye to your team because you will be ours and so will your bit beast," Sanguinex said, readying his own blade, his team right behind him.
Kai gritted his teeth as the countdown began. He could already feel his body asking for more breath.
-S-S-S-S-S-
Ray and the others watch in horror as Kai was separated from them.
"What's going on?" Tyson asked.
[Dranzer tells me that if Kai wins a four-on-one battle then he will be let go and we will be able to continue on, but it is going to be difficult.
[Well, yeah, a four on one match is always difficult, Tyson said bluntly.
[The air is escaping from the container Kai is trapped in.
"What?!" Tyson yelled out loud, causing the others to look over at him. "Kai's in trouble. The air is escaping!" He tried to explain what Dragoon had told him.
"Shoot, Kai!" Ray called, releasing Drigger. He had to break the glass. There was no way Kai could win in those conditions, but Drigger just bounced off like it did earlier. Tyson and Max tried to help, but the results ended in the same.
Kenney watched all of this. He knew something bad was going to happen, but when Tyson said that the box was running out of oxygen, he quickly opened his laptop, Dizzy whining to be shut.
"No, Dizzy. We need to find a way to get Kai out of there," he said and quickened his calculation pace as he saw Kai fly back and hit the glass.
"It's no use, Cheif, they've got it completely secured," Dizzy commented.
"Oh, no . . ."
-S-S-S-S-S-
The phoenix groaned as he forced himself to his feet, Dranzer spinning right beside him.
The bladers before him had released some sort of team attack and the force had knocked him into the glass wall, bruising his back, and trying to crack a few ribs. Luckily, that didn't happen. He definitely wouldn't be able to win like that.
Kai coughed as the air became thinner. He had to figure out a plan now and quick. They were attacking again. "Dranzer!" he screamed, sending his faithful blade up in the sky. "Flame-"
"Not so fast," a voice came from behind. Zom! The Frankenstein monster wrapped his arms around Kai so fast that he didn't even have time to fight back and flung him a few feet to the floor, laughing as the teen rolled and came to an agonizing stop.
Kai winced. His arm was on fire, but he couldn't seem to get any breath. Coughs racked his body as his vision slurred. Slowly, not admitting defeat, the phoenix stood up only to be knocked back down as a wave of energy hit him and his blade.
[Kai, a soothing, but desperate voice called in his mind.
[What-What is it, Dranzer?
The phoenix inside him screeched before answering. [We must attack them when they are whole.
[What do you mean by "whole"? he asked, getting painfully to his feet.
[When they're attacking together, we attack. Do you have enough energy for the Fire Arrow?
[I think so, Dranzer.
[Good. Be ready and careful. The air is getting thinner by the second.
[That goes to you as well, he replied, glaring at the four in front of him. There was no way that he was going to lose. Not to them. The only person he had ever lost to was Tyson. There wasn't going to be any more.
[Ready? Dranzer asked as the Dark Bladers began their descent.
[Ready, came the cool reply.
Kai took in a deep breath, well as deep as he could, and let it out slowly. His mind was spinning with the lack of oxygen, but there was something that had to be done now. He felt Dranzer's power surge through his veins and watched the four bladers in front of him through the fire that now licked his body, the wind created by the flames' power blowing his roughed-up hair away from his face. His breath became labored as the oxygen began disappearing as the fire ate it up hungrily. The next thing he knew, he was aiming an arrow in the middle of the pack charging at Dranzer.
He released, hearing Dranzer screech her attack.
A flash of light came and soon, four blades were laying at Dranzer's feet. They vanished as did the four bladers, with only one last sentence.
"You may have won, but the prophesy has only begun . . ."
-S-S-S-S-S-
Ray gasped as he saw the light illuminating from Kai and his blade. One minute, there was light, the next the Dark Bladers were vanishing into the darkness and the glass walls just beginning to rise little by little.
Kai stumbled over to Dranzer and picked it up with a shaky hand and placed it in his pocket. He glanced back over at his team that were now blurry figures. There was barely any air left and the walls weren't rising fast enough. Kai's body shook to stand and soon his knees buckled, sending him to the floor where he waited for the blissful darkness to swallow him.
"Kai!" the four Bladebreakers called, rushing to their captain's side as soon as the walls were up far enough to get through.
Ray gently lifted Kai's head, feeling the cold sweat run down his arm as it fell from the slate-blue locks. Kai was breathing heavily as if he had just run 50 miles in 10 minutes. "Shhhhhh . . ." the tiger soothed, placing a hand on the phoenix's chest and let the heat from his palm warm the area around his heart. After a few minutes, the stotic teen was calm, sleeping peacefully, his head resting on the neko-jin's lap.
Tyson stared at the older boy asleep. [He really put his life on the line for us . . . he told Dragoon quietly.
He felt the dragon nod and was silently glad that his bit beast didn't answer.
"Hey! Are you kids alright?" a voice called.
All four of them looked up, noticing two men on a small trolley.
-S-S-S-S-S-
The entire time that they were on the trolley, no one spoke a word. Kai's head still rested in Ray's lap, but now there was a blanket draped over him and a band-aid right above his left eyebrow.
Tyson and the others couldn't help but watch their stotic captain as he slept soundlessly.
"I hope those guys don't attack us again . . ." Max started but trailed off at the thought of what would happen to them and Kai.
"Don't worry, Max," Tyson said quietly, sudden rage building inside of him. "This is never going to happen again. We're all going to be alright, and if those freaks do show up again-We'll beat them and keep each other safe. As well as Kai."
