Lightening Dragon King

(EDIT: 07/03/2015)

Summary: Age 26 Ryuga, had everything he ever wanted, a loving wife and daughter…..Until one of Madoka experiments malfunctions and he is sent back to the past! In the body of a 15 year old, he looks for a way to return back to his time. How will he get home, without alerting people that he's from the future? And why are there 2 OF ME!?

Takes place at the end of the fusion and goes on to metal masters.

I have yet to see a beyblade time travel story yet so I decided to make my own!

I do not own Beyblade!

1: Arrival in the past.

26 year old Ryuga lived a peaceful life.

To everyone shock, he was still alive.

Everyone was convinced he wouldn't make it to his 20's at best.

His first memory was waking up in an egg shaped capsule when he was 13. He didn't remember who he was before. A guy with red flame like hair and a bandanna with a Pegasus on it, challenged him to a Beyblade battle. That was his first battle. It came as a huge shock, how easy Beyblade came to him as he served a crushing victory to the red head, fully expecting the the red head to give up on Beyblade but to his surprise, he was blading a month later.

Back then, he only cared about finding strong opponent and defeating them, that's why he followed the orders of the Dark Nebula lead by a man called Daidoji. A very shady man, never seen without a glass of orange juice in his hand. Daidoji proposed a survival tournament on an island after hiring a kid named Yuu. God that kid was annoying. Yuu challenged him with the outcome just as expected. To Ryuga annoyance the Kid began to worshipped me like a god. Yuu had skills that even he had to admit were of higher rank then most bladers, that's why it didn't came as no surprise that Yuu won the survival tournament making way for Battle bladder's, a tournament that lets only the few that had the required points to get in and battle to out to decide who was the number one Blader in the country.

An idea that had Ryuga licking his lips in anticipation (lol. Can you imagine him doing that?).The months were restless and he took down bladers one by one, non-posing a challenge for me. Then he showed up. Tsubasa. The guy at first was mysterious as hell, immediately gaining his attention, what further interests him was seeing Tsubasa stroll into the Dark Nebula HQ, asking for a job, defeat 3 brothers before defeating Yuu. It wasn't even his real strength.

The moment Ryuga eyes landed on him, he know he would get the battle he craved for, after these months. The time came when Tsubasa snuck into the Dark Nebula and tried to steal Data on L-Drago. Ryuga was enraged when he was about to strike the final blow, when a guy in a weird mask interrupted his match and saved Tsubasa. Tsk. His anger shortly cooled down when he battled Tsubasa again and put him in the hospital. Looking back, he felt ashamed of his actions. When the final battle came, it came as no surprise that he was facing off against Gingka but what he didn't take into a account was being consumed by L-Drago dark power.

The feeling was horrible. It was like he wasn't in control of his own body. It was like watching someone else fight despite the horror that was in front of him, Gingka never wanted to stop the match to save his life. To his surprise…. Gingka won!. Not only that, he risked his life to save him. It was at that point a rivalry was born and he spent everyone waking minute training so that he could face off with Gingka and reclaim his title. When it came, it was with Gingka new Pegasus. Boy he sucked. He found himself disappointed in the 'battle' and ended up giving his rival advice! what a surprised that was to even himself!

The next time, he saw him was when Gingka and his friends were looking for the 'legendary bladers' and asked him to join. He shut them down very quickly and defeated this 'Yuki' that convinced him the star fragment was real. From then on, he was obsessed with finding the star fragment and adding it to L-Drago power. This was also the time when Kenta, who wouldn't leave him alone! Did you know he talked in his sleep? So he KNOW, about the self-glorified dream Kenta had. It was quite disturbing, did he actual think he would act like that and go with him so that, that scene would play out? He decided not to say anything.

He tracked down one star fragment and before he was about to take it he was stopped by…Kenta. Of course he was pissed beyond belief! He was already mad when he battled for a legendary bey, only to find out it was fake and 2nd rate! Enraged he destroyed the area and left to battled a guy name Rago and put everything into it…..and lost…. How a big shock that was for him!. Lost and defeated. he give his power to Kenta! what possessed him to do that he will never know! Ever since then, him and the gang had a shaky relationship and they slowly became comfortable with each other to the point, he considered them as partners or 'friends'.

He married Madoka. Something that was a shock to them all because they all thought Madoka and Gingka would get together in the end.

He now had a 3 year old daughter, named Sakura. She inherited his grey-white-ish hair with red streaks and her personality from her mother. She would often be found in the lab.

Bbbuuuuuzzzzz

That was the caller, for him to go down to the lab. It's usually just to help with small jobs since he was completely lost when it comes to technology.

"What is it?" His tone was bored.

He met his wife who was clad in her white lab coat smiling, a wide smile. This was mimicked by their 3 year daughter and he was once again reminded of the 2 geniuses in the house. Sometimes he wished he could go back, to when he was feared but now he is known as a big softy and would often be taken for granted most of the time.

"It did it!" Madoka smile just want up a notch. If that was even possible…

"What did you manage to do?" Ryuga asked taking a piece of toast from a plate, on a nearby table.

"I managed to create a time machine!"

Ryuga mouth dropped open in surprise, dropping his toast. Madoka looked smug. "Image the endless possibilities.."

He tuned her out, as she went on and on, he learnt a long time ago to nod at certain times when her eyes landed on him.

Was it him or did he feel a little vibration?

The ground shook again but more violently, panic began to invade.

Madoka still hasn't noticed until the shaking went up a notch. The ground shook with such ferocity that all the high-tech equipment slid off the tables. The lights began to flicker. It became a full blown earthquake. Then all the inventions came on, including the time machine. He held on to a table, Madoka did the same. A scream alerted him to the machine.

His Daughter was getting sucked into the portal.

"DADDY, PLEASE HELP ME!"

She sounded so scared, tears running down her face. Before his mind caught up with what he was doing. He had already grabbed hold of his Daughter and flung her towards her mother. Seeing that she was safe, he then realised what was going on.

"DADDY!"

The portal closed up, taking him with it.

-12 years in the past-

Ryuga woke up with a groan.

Opening his eyes to face a clear blue sky. At first he was puzzled on how he got there before memories hit him. That's right I fell though the portal He rubbed his head, heaving himself up, finding it easier to do than normal.

Almost like his body was lighter…

He took a few steppes forward and tripped onto the forest floor. What the..

It was then he took notice his hands were much smaller. He rushed to a nearby stream, to peer down. He looked 15! DAMMIT!

He tried to yell out in frustration before the sound of his high pitched voice started him.

I'm in the past. He thought, it was lucky that he know how to survive in the wilderness or else he would have broken down by now. He didn't wish for anyone to recognise him so he pulled out a black cloak with his white, black and golden Dragon adoring the back. It made him look fierce, the skin of the dragon was covered in patterned ink and the teeth were very sharp, pulling up his hood. He began making his way to the nearest town, making sure he stayed in the shadows, not wanting to attract unwanted attention. He swept the town like a ghost. The streets were not as busy as one would expect in such a busy town, he just got lucky. Approached the big wide screen TV in the middle of town.

"That concludes, the battle bladder's tournament, with the winner Gingka Hagane!"

The screen showed a 13 year old Gingka and then switched to the camera showing Ryuga and Gingka landing safely on the ground.

Well there goes my idea of using my name He thought, frowning that he can't use his name and have to come up with a new one. He would have to also change his appearance too, he looks why too much, like this times Ryuga.

But to what?

Just than the screen displayed an advert for a new perfume called 'lighting' showed. A man walked past a group of girls and they started to follow him.

He sweat dropped but he liked the name.

Okay from now on my name is 'lightning'. Dammit I have to get used to that name so that I don't react when I hear 'Ryuga'. He thought in a bit of annoyance that there was another version of him.

I should probably find something to cover my face. I look why too much like my younger self. He looked through the shops windows and spied a mask that looked similar to what Gingka dad wore as Phoenix except it was white and didn't come with hair. He was thankful for that because he liked his hair and refused to cover it. After buying the mask, he bought some hair dye and brightened his grey hair to white and died his red sides, gold. He left his gold eyes.

If someone does happen to see his face, he could easy play the 'amnesia' card. An effective way to avoid questions. The worst that could happen was that people might see that he and this time Ryuga were related. Meaning Ryuga might seek him out but at least he can assess his younger self skill and prepare him for what's to come.

After all, when Nemesis was in the process of being brought back. He foolishly fought without thinking, speeding up the process and getting himself almost killed.

It wasn't my finest moment He resisted the urge to sweat drop at his stubbornness and lack of common sense back then. At least he gave his power to Kenta which he used and battled like he's never done before. He never told him of how proud he was of him.

He got himself a golden version of his coat except he wore a white tank top and white boots. He took off his launcher knowing it would make him too recognisable. He looked himself over feeling satisfied.

While searching through his stuff, he was amazed to see buzz (a little hovering robot that Medoka made 8 years ago.) He wondered if it still worked, pressing a button at the side and its eyes glowed to life, there was a soft hum as he watched it rise in the air.

It blinked.

"Where am I?" Its voice showed panic. It backed away from him. "Who are you? Was I kidnapped? That it!... isn't it?! I've been Kid-

"Buzz calm down. It's me Ryuga but you must call me lightening from now on" He tried to quieten the robot.

The robot shook it head "You're not Ryuga; he much taller than you and his voice is deeper"

Ryuga resisted the urge to sigh "I got de-aged and we are in the past. There is another me running around" Buzz looked horrified at the idea of two Ryuga's. Ryuga rolled his eyes.

Ryuga looked at buzz with hope "Do you know how to get back to our time?" The robot eyes turned thoughtful "I have no idea but I have the blue prints for the Time Machine but the technology needed would not be developed until 5 years from now."

He sighed; I'm going to be here for some time, then….

"Before I forgot, do not give ANY sign of future knowledge in front of people. We are going with, claiming amnesia to avoid questions. The more rumours spread the last likely for the truth to come out. Understand?" He stretched the last part out and Buzz nodded.

"Buzz can you do a quick scan on me, ever since I woke up. There this buzzing in my head." Buzz nodded and his eyes glowed to begin the scan.

Ryuga waited for the scan to be complete. The light that shone over his body had disappeared. The robot looked shocked. "Y-you've have become L-Drago." It said in shock.

Ryuga raised his eyebrow, prompting the robot explain. Buzz finally got over his shock "Your whole body is filled with L-Drago power"

Ryuga looked shocked "How did that happen?!"

Buzz gave a short hum "Do you know what I think? I know that a human can't pass through time without some sort of protection so when L-Drago saw you were in danger. It did the only thing to make sure you survived. It merged with you. Meaning you and L-Drago are one and the same." He finished.

Ryuga couldn't believe his ears. L-Drago and him were mean't to be partners, not the Bey itself! He just hoped he doesn't sprout wings any time soon or a tail. Sharp teeth were actual cool and he would love some "Do you think that the past L-Drago would recognise itself and try to 'merge'?" He tried to keep his mind from thinking he was about to transform into a red dragon.

Buzz didn't expect that question "I-I don't really know, perhaps?" His answer did nothing to smooth his fears.

Ryuga scratched his head and sighed "Will work it out when we get there as for now. We have to stay as far away from Gingka and his friends and not to mention this time Ryuga. We have to change as little as possible, of course I will train my younger self when he comes to me. Other than that, we avoid them like the plague."

If he could, Buzz would have raised an eyebrow "What about when the star fragments fall and you become a legendary blader? Gingka and the others will defiantly look for you." He cursed under his breath, he didn't think of that. Gingka had the devils luck when it came to finding people.

"How do you know I'll become a Legendary Blader?" buzz stared at him like he was asking 'are you kidding me?!' "People read about you in books. Hell even you read about you in books! YOU WENT DOWN IN BEYBLADE HISTORY!"

If there was ever a time where he really didn't want to be a legendary blader it would have been then. "Fine, I'll help but I'm staying as distant as possible so it's defeat nemesis and leave relationship" knowing how serious Nemesis was, hell even in his time. They were afraid of that monster will come back that's why they were training kids to fight for them because they weren't as young as they used to be and had given up beyblade. It was a harsh reality, once you reach a certain age you are practically forced to quite beyblade because people talking down to you or you have a busy social life and have no time for it. Only a few go into career in Beyblade but that's only for helping out like set up for a tournament to governing over how beyblade is run.

He hadn't beyblade in years and wasn't sure if he remembered how to.

Buzz seemed to sense his coming depression because he suddenly asked "How did you get the money to pay for what you're wearing?"

He looked down in embarrassment "I collect old coins and kept the money from over 10 years ago"

No one would every suspect he was coin collector.

"Well if you have money. Let get a nice place to sleep. I don't want to sleep out in the cold!" It complained, Ryuga resisted the urge to sweat drop. You're a robot. How can you feel the cold?!

"Fine but after we get a good night sleep we are getting a passport to go to Arabia" Buzz stopped, could feel the question in the air.

"Team Desert Blaze didn't even win their first match but to be fair it was against Julian and his Gravity Destroyer. The Japan team went straight after their defeat so there is no risk that I'll be discovered or if I did. I will go into hidden until Japan left." Buzz would have sweat dropped if he could "You are really set on avoiding them aren't you?" It wasn't a question it was statement.

Ryuga shrugged. They booked themselves a cheap inn, they only needed a roof over their heads. He practised in front of a mirror, to prepare himself for the time he would meet the younger version of his wife. Knowing it would inevitable... maybe he could push this time Ryuga in the right direction. He took off his clothes and climbed into the soft enough looking bed.

What a crazy day I've had He wouldn't have believed it if he wasn't experiencing it. Going through time is only dreamt about not actual been done. He wished his wife was here because she would know what to do in this situation.

He closed his eyes, letting the darkness take him.

#Dream#

He felt hurt and betrayed by his own kind because he was too strong and like other before him they were destroyed.

Did they all have to be the same?

Do we all have to hide behind a mask?

He pleaded with his family that he would find somewhere else to live away from civilisation but they rejected him saying his imagination was getting the best of him.

He agreed to stay for the night before he would leave secretly. That's when disaster struck. What made it unbearable was that his own family had happily killed him and sealed his spirit away into a piece of rock.

He wanted Revenge.

Filled with so much hatred for everything around him. The energy leaking out of his body became like poison and destroyed everything it touched. While trapped he polluted the ground with his energy and slowly the planet died along with his so called family. He watched amused seeing them try to find a solution to the problem but they were already dropping like flies.

What he didn't count on was, the rock he was sealed in to break away from the earth so he floated around in space for 600 long years until one day he drew close to a blue planet thinking he was going to pass it like the other planets that why he was alarmed when an invisible forced grabbed hold of him and pulled him down to the planet. The rock was very much damaged and he was on his last legs, his only choice was to shift into a form that would keep him alive. That's how he turned into a what humans called a beyblade.

He didn't expect to be woken up 20 years later and be in the hands of a child. The child name was 'Ryuga' and he was an only child to farmer parents. He didn't expect to get so close to the child that they became 'partners'. Then it happened, the incident were the child was on the mountain to collect some medicine when an earthquake hit and the child fell off. Using the last remains of my strength. I protected the child but not before he banged his head when feel fall. We were encased in a block of ice.

I was no were well enough to be able to break it,so I waited for the Ice melted. To my surprise, we were dug out under the rubble years later and were brought to an underground facility which looked shady. I did not like being held here and study like an animal but endured it if it meant that Ryuga would wake up soon. He did wake up 2 years later but I could tell there was something different in his eyes when he looked at me like I was a complete stranger. It hit me. He had amnesia!

Dammit! Now I have an amnesia crazed kid that hungers for battle and that red haired didn't do anything to smooth my worries. To my surprise even though he has amnesia, Ryuga could still feel our bound but it was very weak. He did some questionable things like put every person he came across in hospital. Sometimes I wish I wasn't trapped and could give him a good tell off. When I did try I accidental put my power into the boy which still was like poison and it affected him turning him crazy.

It also affected me too and to avoid going crazy I took the hit when the red head summoned his friend's sprites and fought together. It hurt like a bitch but all least Ryuga wasn't crazy any more and it knocked some sense into him, making him take his first steps to getting our relationship to what it used to be and he's less cocky.

I should really thank the red haired.

#end of dream#

Ryuga woke in surprise. What was that? Was that L-Drago thoughts? It felt like I was the dragon, it was so real! At least now I know about my past. Dammit! It looks like I've merged with this times L-Drago! He honestly felt sorry for L-Drago, he only now realised how much of jerk he was back then.

He still couldn't help to be in denial but after experience the dream he was forced to accept it. He was the new L-Drago.

He showered and got dressed, went into his basic morning route which included 500 push ups and 2 hours run because of that, his muscles were packed with a lot of power behind them.

He turned on the light only to almost switch them back off in shock of his new appearance. Just liked he hoped his teeth were sharper than normal and his eyes had bits of red in them. His ears were pointy and his nails were sharper. His nose wasn't even a nose. It was a snout! His white hair had red tips. Taking off his top to find scales and was that….

No it can't be!

He saw huge red wings spread out. THEY WERE HUGE!

Maybe I can will, the changes away? And to his surprise, they vanished and he became his old self with a few differences. He still had red at the tips of his hair and his pupils had little dragons in them. He recognised that it was what L-Drago looked like at this point in time and his canines were sharper. Good thing he was wearing a mask.

He slumped into depression Am I even human anymore?

When he woke Buzz.

Buzz flipped out over his new appearance and it took a while to calm him down.

"So you've also merged with the L-Drago of this time?" He said no wanting to believe how fast the process was. He could feel the temperature rise just by being closed to him and Ryuga may not realise it yet but he was currently extruding a killer intent and he wanted to cower.

"I know its crazy, just one night and I find myself looking through L-Drago eyes, looking into his/my past and hearing my/his thoughts." He was trying to keep the panic out his voice. He just hoped that this time Ryuga didn't notice anything strange about his bey.

Buzz let out a sound which he took for pity or he was trying to comfort him. He didn't know which. Ryuga smiled and pattered the robots head as I thank you.

"Remember, we act like people from this time. That means we cannot talk about future events in public. If someone happens to ask about you, tell them you don't remember who made you and keep quiet about my identity." He said in a serious tone. Buzz nodded.

Lightning pack all his clothes and made his way to the reception to check out.

"So do you happen to remember anything?" The old lady that owned the inn asked. She would not let him into the inn because of past experiance so he was forced to task off his mask so yes, she knows what he looks like.

He faked distress "No I haven't ma'am."

The women gave him a look of pity "That's a shame; you look an awful lot like this boy, I saw on the TV yesterday. He fall off a big building, almost gave me a heart attack. Luckily the kid with the red hair and his Pegasus saved him in time or the boy would surely be dead. What was he called?...Ryu, Ron?...no that not it…..Ryuga. That's it, Ryuga!"

He faked a look of confusion "Ryuga?"

The women looked hopeful "You do look a lot like him. Could you two be related?"

Lightning shrugged "I don't know Ma'am"

The women didn't seem too satisfied with that answer but gave him a goodbye smile before he left.

Lightning (I'll call him 'light' for now. It's too much of a handful) with Buzz hovering around him, went to a place he knows that could give him a fake identity and a passport, never had been so happy to have lot of money with him.

They walked into an old broken house, a perfect cover for doing something illegal. Buzz looked excited; he always wanted to be on the other side of the law. This disturbed him more then he cared to admit.

He approached an old looking desk with a criminal looking man with muscles. He refused to state he was intimidated.

Meanwhile the man felt the temperature in the room go up until it was like being in a furnace and he looked up from his computer to come face to face with the most terrifying eyes he had ever seen. He thought the grim reaper was here to take his soul. He immediately straightened up, thinking his life was on the line.

Light resisted the urge to raise an eyebrow.

"You've came for a new identity?" His voice was very polite and formal, knowing it would not do to anger the teenager in front of him if he feared his life.

"Yes, I need a new one as soon as possible" At the raised, eyebrow. He took of the mask. The man stared in shock.

Its was the kid, I saw on TV yesterday! The one that was possessed!...Hold on? The man scanned his feature and noted down some difference such as his eyes were smaller and were filled with wisdom way beyond his age. He could see the colour red in his golden eyes; he also looked older by 1 or two years.

"As you can see, I look too much like a certain Blader and have taken to wearing a mask. I would use my real name but the problem is, I can't remember anything about myself since I woke up yesterday" The man had a hard to absorbing the information in. Not able to process the information, he did the paperwork and handed them to him to sign.

Light, signed, almost signing his name like how he usual does but stopped himself in time. He scribbled what his name was now, making sure it, his signature was different. He gave it back to the man who put them into a computer and minutes later he walked out with Passport and ID.

They headed to the train station.

Hopefully he wouldn't see Gingka and the others for a long time not to mention Ryuga.

# Half way across the world #

Ryuga pocket began to glow red and he pulled out his beyblade. It was covered in red light before it faded. When the light faded three new blades were added, all completely white and had the symbol for 'lightning' engraved on them.

Ryuga watched the whole process amazed.

What could have happened to L-Drago?

Done!
