Summary: Kai Hiwatari has inherited Hiwatari Enterprises and has redesigned the whole company from its once dark holdings to a company that promotes the BBA and the well being of all bladers around the globe. But when he notices something strange with the bit beasts of a younger generation of bladers as well as his own, Kai must find a way to get to the bottom of it and quickly. Enlisting the help of his old teammate, Ray Kon, the two men find themselves in London, England to meet someone who could possibly help them, however, being thrust into a new adventure was the last thing the age old champion was expecting and least of all to find someone who would shatter the walls he surrounded himself with.
Disclaimer: I obviously don't own Beyblade that right belongs strictly to Takao Aoki. I do, however, own any unrecognizable characters and the plot line. Also as a disclaimer – I drew inspiration from movies/games/stories such as Indiana Jones, Lara Croft: Tomb Raider and Uncharted all rights reserved to each creator/writer of these original plots. Any historical references were researched extensively by myself and bent for flexibility to fit the outlines of this story when necessary as this is a work of fiction.

Author's Note: Hello and welcome to Coming Home! This has been my small little love child since early summer of 2016 and I'm super stoked to finally begin publishing it here because it's been eating away at my hard drive as I've been working on it. Just so you all know, this will be a small series – I've already begun outlining a sequel – so this won't just be a standalone fic. Coming Home is this series title so why not make it the title of the story no? Anyway below I'll update you all on how old each character is, just so you get an idea about how long it's been since we last saw these characters as this takes place long after G-REV (season 3 for you youngin's who maybe aren't as familiar with the original series). Anyway, I know this prologue is a bit unsatisfying, but I wanted to keep the good stuff for the next chapter ;) I hope you enjoy and remember reviews are absolutely encouraged, lovely and appreciated, but not necessarily mandatory for an update…but let me know what you think!

Coming Home
Prelude
Leaning against the side of the wall, her chest heaved as her lungs expanded in an effort to push more oxygen into the organs. She pulled at her loose henley and wiped her forehead with her bandaged hand – soiled with dirt and blood from where she had cut herself in her effort to run. Her once neat and tidied hair fell around her face in loose and unruly strands that stuck to her dirt smudged and sweat slicked flesh. Dark circles formed under her eyes, though the purple and red bruising of her right eye stood out against her tanned skin. She knew she could not run forever, but in this instance she knew she had no other choice.
Surrender was not an option.
Exhaling sharply through her nose in order to pull more air into her quickly expanding lungs, she set her eyes in determination and pushed aside her aches and pains as they would do her no good here. Gun in hand she drew herself from the wall before slowly making her way around the corner, being careful to keep herself as silent as possible and in a desperate attempt not to be caught. These people were trained killers and there was always an element of apprehension that spread throughout her veins whenever such persons were involved. What had started out as nothing more than a quest for answers was now a fight for her very life. Turning another corner, she released a slow exhale in an effort to quell her nerves, leading with her gun and praying to several deities to spare her.
A shout drew her attention to the area she had just come from and with eyes wide in terror she set back off in her vigorous sprint in a desperate attempt to flee. Quickly, she lost track of where she was and looking behind her she smirked in triumph for losing her pursuers, but as she turned another corner she ran into a solid source and as quickly as she turned she found the air dispelling itself from her lungs and her body sprawled on the ground before a group of grinning men.
"Hello, Princess…"
Before she could attempt to regain her lost ground, the man swung the rifle in his hand and slammed the butt end of the AK-47 into her temple, causing her already sprawled form to crumble as she succumbed to darkness once more.
