Well, here's my next story. It's a continuation of Beyblade Town, with all the shops. I would recommend reading Beyblade Town first. It won't make much sense otherwise. (Link: s/8282788/1/Beyblade_Town ) Just a few new characters added. Bear with me, as the town comes in in the next chapter. This one if just setting the scene for the rest of the book. Enjoy!
(Takes place just before the G-Revolution series)
Chapter 1 The Trip
"Oh man Ray!" gushed Tyson happily. "I can't believe you sprung and got us these tasty burgers!"
Ray had broken down at Tyson and Max's pleading and ordered all of the Bladebreakers burgers. One for everyone and five for Tyson. After everyone was done (it had taken Tyson the longest), the Bladebreakers exited the restaurant and met up with Hilary, who refused to be in a restaurant with Tyson.
"Well guys, what are we going to do today?" asked Max.
Kenny pushed up his glasses. "I don't know. Ask Tyson. He seems to run the show here."
Tyson brightened up. "Let's go beyblade!"
"Tyson, you've beybladed before breakfast, after breakfast, before lunch, and now you want to blade some more after lunch?" asked Hilary. "I for one say we do something different for once."
Tyson had to agree with that. He scrambled around his brain for something to do. "Hey, you know who we haven't seen in a while?" he asked them all.
"A lot of people," responded Kai.
"Specifics please, Kai," Tyson prompted.
Kai shrugged. He really didn't care.
"Zeo!" cried out Tyson, answering his own question.
Kenny said, "Yeah! We haven't seen him since the tag-team battle at the world championships!"
"Well, off we go!" Tyson marched off toward Zeo Zaggart's house. The rest of the Bladebreakers followed.
Ding dong! Dr. Zaggart answered the door. "What do you kids want? I'm in the middle of some important-oh, it's you, Tyson."
"Hello Doctor. Is Zeo around?" Tyson asked him.
"Actually," the Doctor told him, "Zeo went to America. You'll find him there, if you take the expense of buying airplane tickets." The doctor shut the door.
"Yay!" said Tyson excitedly. "Ray, I don't suppose you have enough money on hand to buy plane tickets."
"Nope." Ray looked sad. "I spent my last dime buying you your fifth burger."
"Max?" asked Tyson.
Max held out his empty hands. "My mom could arrange a hotel for us, but I'm not able to get us plane tickets."
Hilary too said she hadn't got enough money for all of them to take a trip. Everyone looked expectantly at Tyson, who was rummaging around his pockets. They sighed when he turned them inside-out. "Guess I'm broke too," he said sheepishly.
"I'll call Mr. Dickenson," said Kenny, who called on a nearby payphone and hung up with a frown. "Sorry. He isn't available at the time. His answering machine said he took a trip to Indonesia."
Ray looked to the last possible option. "Kai, you don't happen to have any spare cash, do you?"
"No," said Kai. "But I have my credit card."
"Sweet!" said Tyson with a grin. "We're lucky your grandfather is totally loaded with cash!"
Kai's expression didn't change when he got to the airport to fly to New York and realized he had to pay an airfare of $999.99 per person. That was over $6,000 with baggage prices included in the total. Nor did Kai smile when Tyson grinned at him and said, "Way to fork over the cash, man!" He simply pointed out that he had charged their airfare to his credit card.
Once on the plane, Tyson finally calmed down. He was sitting by Max, and Ray was with Kenny, which left Kai and Hilary together. Kai called window seat.
Tyson fell asleep on the plane early in the flight, which left Kenny playing games on his laptop, Max, Ray, and Hilary checking out their in-flight radios, and Kai silently staring ahead of him.
A few hours later, the plane touched down in New York. It wasn't an entirely smooth landing, and jolted Tyson out of his sleep. "Who? Wha? Let me at 'em!" Tyson exclaimed. Then he calmed down when he remembered their trip to America to find Zeo Zaggart. Needless to say, this made Tyson run to the front of the plane and demand to be let off first, much to the annoyance of the flight attendant, who didn't recognize the two time world beyblade champ.
Max's mom met them when they picked up their baggage and drove them to their hotel. By then, it was evening, so they all went to the water park at the hotel. Max, Ray, Tyson, Kenny, and Hilary had fun sliding down water slides, while Kai sat at a table and refused to join them.
After that refreshing opportunity, they all retired to their hotel rooms to spend the night. Tyson couldn't wait to go find Zeo the next day.
Zeo Zaggart checked out of his hotel at 11:00 pm. He hadn't had the confidence to beyblade since his loss to King. It had been so stunning, so shocking. Zeo hadn't even had time to call out his bit beast Cerberus. He had trained both day and night to prepare himself and become stronger.
"I won't lose again," he whispered to his bey.
