Trent watched as Sandra caught her bey, which he had learned that it was called Galaxy Leone. "Oh yeah!" Sandra exclaimed. She had won the battle in the end, but it wasn't an easy one.
"Darn! I almost had you too!" Gingka said, picking up his bey with was called Galaxy Pegasus. "Oh well! Who wants to battle now?" He turned to the rest of his friends.
"Not so fast!" Madoka stepped in front of him. "Before you battle again I have to look at Pegasus. It was a rough battle for both bladders."
"But-" Gingka began to protest but Alex cut in.
"She's right. Before either of you battle again we need to look at your beys," she said.
Trent caught an annoyed look on Kyoya's face. What's up with that guy?
"While I'm fixing Leone, Sandra, shouldn't you get ready for your show?" Alex suggested.
"The show! I completely forgot! I have to practice!" Sandra exclaimed, running off before giving Alex Leone.
"Trent," Trent turned to see Dr. O. "Go with her. You know what might happen while she's alone. We don't know if she has her morpher or now."
Trent nodded. "I'm on it." He dashed off after Sandra. He spotted her a few paces away. "Sandra!" he called. Sandra stopped and waited for him to catch up to her.
"What's up?" Sandra asked.
"Dr. O told me to come with you," Trent explained.
"I can take care of myself you know," Sandra pointed out, revealing a bracelet with a light blue gem on it.
"I know, but he still told me to come with you. Besides, I haven't seen you forever. We can catch up," Trent said.
"Fine," Sandra said. They began to walk toward Sandra's apartment.
"So is Beyblading all you've been up to?" Trent asked.
"Mostly, but there is one other thing," Sandra replied, smiling. "I've got a boyfriend now."
"Really? Who?" Trent asked.
"Kyoya," Sandra answered.
"Him? There's no way," Trent said.
Sandra laughed. "Believe it. He's a lot different when you get to know him. So, what about you? Have you said anything to Kira about how you feel?"
Trent shook his head. "She couldn't like me now. I'm keeping a secret from them all."
"So they still don't know that your father is Mesogog?" Sandra guessed.
"No, you're the only person I've told," Trent replied.
"You can't keep it a secret forever, Trent. They're going to find out eventually," Sandra pointed out.
"Maybe, but not if my father can take care of Mesogog first. I just have to give him time," Trent argued.
Sandra sighed. "Well, if you say so, I'll keep your secret."
"Thanks, Sandra," Trent replied.
"Sure thing, Trent," Sandra said.
They walked in silence for awhile until a thought entered Trent's head. "Are you sure Mesogog won't have anyone waiting for you in front of your apartment?"
"I don't know. Does he know where I live?" Sandra asked. The rounded a corner and froze. There was a women standing in front of Sandra's apartment building with some dino-human like black creatures. "Nevermind. I know the answer."
"Elsa!" Trent growled. (please look up a picture of Else. I have no idea how to describe her)
"Didn't expect you to be with her, Trent," Else sneered.
"Just get out of here, Elsa. You can't beat us both by yourself," Sandra told her.
"We'll see. Attack!" Elsa shouted.
"Look out!" Trent exclaimed, leaping over one black creature. They were known as Tyrannodrones.
Trent began to knock away any drone that came near, but soon realized that Elsa wasn't attack him. He glanced around and saw Sandra fighting with her. Surprisingly, Sandra's fighting skills were as good as they were before she left America. Trent then proceeded to beat all the other drones and ran to help Sandra. Before he reached her Elsa broke away from Sandra with a sly grin on her face.
"I'll take my leave. I got what I needed!" With that Elsa was gone.
"Glad she's gone, but what did she get out of that? She lost the fight," Sandra asked, looking at Trent.
"Let me see your Dino Gem," Trent said. Sandra held out her wrist and Trent's fears were confirmed. A piece of her gem was missing. "A piece of your gem is missing."
"Is that a bad thing? Nobody mentioned anything bad about that before," Sandra questioned.
"They have this new machine where if they get part of your gem then they can get you to do whatever they say," Trent explained. Sandra's eyes widened.
"Will it be like when you...you know," Sandra asked.
"Most likely. You can try to resist it at first but it can take full control when you're in your ranger form," Trent explained. "Just try to avoid people as best you can because you don't morph when you want to. You don't get a choice."
Sandra nodded. "That means, I'm gone," she said, running away from Trent. Trent ran back to the park. He saw his friends standing with Alex. He ran up to them.
"I've got to talk to you guys, now!" he whispered. Thankfully, Alex didn't hear him. He didn't want her to freak out since Sandra was her best friend.
Dr. O nodded and they all moved away to the edge of the park. "What's wrong Trent?" Dr. O asked.
"They got part of Sandra's gem," Trent answered, grimly.
"Great. What do we do now? She'll be just as strong as Trent when he was controled," Conner growled.
"We just have to get the other part of Sandra's gem and put it back where it belongs," Dr. O explained.
"But what if she goes completely evil before we get the gem?" Ethan asked. "She wouldn't listen them."
"We just have to try," Kira snapped.
"What if she reveals her identity to one of her friends?" Conner asked, ignoring Kira.
"Calm down!" Trent snapped. "We can't focus on that right now. We can't control what she does. If she does reveal her identity, then we just have to live with it. What's really important is that we get her back to normal."
"But-" Conner started to protest but Dr. O cut him off.
"Trent's right. We just need to get the piece of Sandra's gem back, and then we can worry about her other friends," he said.
"Fine," Conner muttered.
"Hey. What are you guys doing over there?" Alex asked as she noticed them. "Come on! Benkei is going to battle Kenta!"
"We're coming!" Kira said, dashing over to Alex. Conner and Ethan followed her. Trent was about to when Dr. O stopped him.
"You know that you'e probably going to play a key roll in getting Sandra back, right?" Dr. O pointed out.
"I know," Trent assured him. "I won't let you down."
Dr. O nodded. "There's no one better for the job."
Trent shook his head and glanced at Kyoya, who was leaning against a tree with his arms crossed and eyes closed. "If he knew, he's be better for the job."
"And why's that?"
"He's Sandra's boyfriend," Trent answered, before dashing over to the others.
