While somewhat, the similar thing was happening to the Team Bladebreakers as well on their way to the championship league. The van they were riding suddenly stopped that jerked everyone inside.

Tyson: Hey, what's going on?

Mr. X: Did I just stop the right bladers?

Tyson: What? Who're you looking for anyway?

Mr. X: I'm searching for the team known as the BladeBreakers.

Tyson: That's us. What do you want?

Mr. X: A battle of course, you idiot! Now bring it on! I wanna see if what everyone's been told about each of you is true or not.

Tyson: *hops out of the van in excitement* Sure why not?

Ray: Hey wait up dude! *they all followed after him*

Tyson: If it's a battle you want, then it's a battle you'll get. Just don't cry after you lose. Let it riiip!

Mr. X: Hah!

The two beyblades fought for quite a long time, smashing into each other every second.

Tyson: Man this is nuts!

Mr. X: *smirks* Is this all you've got?

Tyson: You'll see. Dragoon, attttaaaack!

But surprisingly as Tyson called out for his Dragoon, it did not respond at all.

Tyson: What's going on? Dragoon, attack! *no response* Gr~ what's the matter with you!

Kenny: This is unbelievable! How come Dragoon's not listening to Tyson?

Mr. X: *laughing* At this rate, a winner is decided already. Check out my move now. Go attack, Flash Leopard!

Tyson: Oh no!

Tyson's beyblade was thrown out of the stadium as soon as Flash Leopard hit Dragoon. Kenny, Ray & Max gasped at that while Mr. X smiled in content.

Tyson: *stammering* Wh- What happened?

Without another word, Mr. X disappeared from the scene. Max walked up to Tyson.

Max: Uh.. Tyson, you okay?

Tyson: What happened? Why didn't Dragoon attack at all?

Kenny: Hmm...

Voice: So had a nice battle?

A voice was heard from all around the area they were standing.

Tyson: Huh?

Max: Who was that?

Voice: *laughs* Well there's nothing to wonder about. You will have a task given by us. I'm sure one of you boys know this girl?

Ray: Who girl?

Voice: We cannot view her here but I'm sure that this Tyson named kid would know about her.

Tyson: Me?

Voice: Yes, and if you want to rescue her, come to the lighthouse. We'll be waiting for you. Make sure that you all reach there within 15 minutes. Or else... *laughs loudly as it fades out*

Tyson: what the hell was that all about?

Max: I have no idea... sure sounded creepy though.

Kenny: Well, we can't be wasting out time. Didn't that voice said we need to reach the lighthouse within 15 minutes or else? The lighthouse isn't that far.

Ray: Yes, but we've got our tournament to worry about, Kenny. We can't let ourselves get caught up in this.

Tyson: and I don't even know who this girl is.

Kenny: Why not find out then? she must be someone important to you, Tyson.

Tyson: And what's that supposed to mean?

Kai: We should go.

Everyone: Huh?

Tyson: did I just hear you right, Kai?

Kai: If it's the 'we should go' you heard, then yes you heard me right, Tyson.

Without saying anything further, Kai made his way towards the lighthouse. The rest followed him in silence. After few minutes of walk, the Bladebreakers reached the lighthouse and looked around the soundless place.

Tyson: So this is it?

Kenny: Of course. Now what do we do?

Kai: Hn!

Max: What's the matter, Kai?

Kai was looking up on the second floor and standing there were Tala & Ian, who too were staring back at the Bladebreakers with expressionless faces.
