Drabble 3 - Of Mistletoes and Tournaments
There was a big Christmas party. Of course, when there's a Christmas party, there's probably going to be a mistletoe. Surprisingly, Yuki wore a red dress that had a green ribbon at her waist, and the dress went down to her knees. Yuki hated dresses, which was why it was a surprise.
"Hey guys!" Miu said. "Let's have a tag battle tournament! Whichever bey is out first, that team is the loser!"
"Who'd partner with whom?" Tsubasa asked.
"We'd do a random draw, duh!" Miu said, as if it was obvious. Then she quietly said something that no one heard "It's also a good way to get blackmail." The blacked haired girl took out a box with a slit to put paper through. She put a piece of paper in with her name.
"I'm game." Yuki said in her usual quiet voice. She wrote her name on a small slip of paper and slid it through the slit at the top of the box.
"I've got nothing to lose!" Gingka said, putting another piece of paper with his name on it into the box.
"I guess if it's a friendly competition..." Hikaru said, still traumatized by her defeat at the hands of Ryuga.
Eventually, after everyone had entered their names, the partners were decided:
Hanako and Dashan
Gingka and Masamune (Gingka and Masamune had shouted "HIM?" while pointing at each other)
Kyoya and Hikaru
Yuki and Nile (Everyone groaned, knowing that the duo were almost impossible to beat, while they high fived)
Kiyoko and Chao Xin
Benkei and Kenta
Miu and Tsubasa
Unfortunately, since there was one too many names, the extra was Yu. He was to be the sub in case anyone couldn't battle in the middle of the tournament.
"So, the first battle is Benkei and Kenta VS Yuki and Nile." Madoka said.
"3! 2! 1!" The four battling bladers shouted. "Let it rip!" The four beys, Benkei's Bull, Kenta's Sagittarius, Yuki's Alicorn, and Nile's Horuseus, were all spinning in one place.
"Special move!" Yuki and Nile shouted at the same time.
"Galaxy Blaster!" "Mystic Zone!"
Alicorn went into the air, as if it was flying, while Horuseus attacked. Alicorn paused in mid-air, waiting for Horuseus's attack to finish, then spun. It created a spiral of air around it. It tilted to it's side and suddenly, the attack became more red in color, like Alicorn's base color. Right after the other bey attacked, Alicorn took the chance and rammed into the ground. It made an explosion, which only didn't faze Gingka, since he always saw his sister doing this, Yuki, because of her blue goggles she always wore, and Nile, because he learned to deal with it. After the explosion, they saw the results. Bull had a stadium out, while Sagittarius had stopped spinning.
"That was easy." Yuki said.
"Well, the results were obvious, and Yuki and Nile wins." Madoka said. "The next battle is Gingka and Masamune VS Hanako and Dashan."
"3! 2! 1! Let it rip!" Four beys were launched, Gingka's Pegasus, Masamune's Striker, Hanako's Cyber Flower, and Dashan's Zurafa.
"Special Move!" The four shouted at the same time.
"Cosmic tornado!" Gingka ordered.
"Lightning Sword Flash!" Masamune shouted.
"Crushing Blast!" Dashan said.
"Leaf Dance!" Hanako said. As the four beys clashed, another explosion occurred. As the mess cleared, they saw the results. Striker, Flower and Zurafa had stopped spinning, and Pegasus was still standing, making Gingka and Masamune the winners. If would've been a tie, but since no one knew which bey was out first, they just decided since that Pegasus was still spinning, Gingka and Masamune won.
"Darn it!" Hanako said. Masamune started laughing. "Huh?" He pointed up. Hanako looked up and returned her bey, getting ready to use it again. Above her, and Dashan, was a mistletoe. And since it was Christmas, there was no escaping.
After a very embarrassing moment for Hanako, Flower was chasing Masamune. Until the next battle was going to start.
"The next battle is Kyoya and Hikaru VS Kiyoko and Chao Xin." Madoka said.
"I wonder how this one will turn out." Hanako said.
"3! 2! 1! Let it rip!" Kyoya's Fang Leone, Hikaru's Aquario, Kiyoko's Flame Leone and Chao Xin's Poison Virgo all attacked the enemy beys at once. Flame Leone went to the side, as did Virgo, but at opposite ends. The two beys suddenly charged into the middle, hitting Aquario. Aquario flew into the air, and landed just outside the stadium, resulting in a stadium out and Kiyoko and Chao Xin's win. Kyoya sighed and turned around, almost walking off, but saw something above him.
"Shit." He muttered. Miu, being the girl she was, held a mistletoe over Hikaru and Kyoya.
"You can't escape tradition!" Gingka said, mocking Kyoya.
One kiss, two explosions, and a battle later, the final four teams were decided. Because there were seven teams, there was a battle royal between the losing teams and the team that hadn't battled, the last bey standing would win it for their team. The winners were Miu and Tsubasa, due to Eagle being the last one standing.
"The last battle will also be a battle royal, the last bey standing wins it for the team. However, if both beys from one team are left standing, then that team wins." Madoka said.
"3!" Miu and Tsubasa started the countdown.
"2!" Gingka, Masamune, Kiyoko and Chao Xin continued.
"1!" Nile and Yuki ended the countdown.
"Let it rip!" All eight shouted at the same time. Eagle, Storm Jay, Miu's bey, Flame Leone, Alicorn, Horuseus, Virgo, Pegasus and Striker were all spinning in circles around the stadium.
"Let's finish this with one big explosion." Yuki said.
"Just what I was thinking." Nile replied.
"Special move!" The two shouted.
"Galaxy Blaster!" "Mystic Zone!" Yet another explosion took place. As it cleared up, they could see that only two beys were spinning, most likely Alicorn and Horuseus. Which of course, it was.
"Good job, you did pretty well!" Madoka said to Gingka.
"But not enough. I don't see how Yuki always manages to beat me!" Gingka whined.
"Hey Gingka, look up!" Masamune said, laughing. Gingka looked up, and so did Madoka. Above them, a mistletoe was hanging from a stick that Hanako was holding.
"You can't escape tradition!" Kyoya said, imitating Gingka. Madoka, wanting to get it over with, pecked Gingka's lips and then walked off, blushing madly. Gingka was also blushing. Yuki was trying to stop the laughter threatening to escape her mouth.
"Haha, very funny Galaxy." Gingka said. "And you should look up." Yuki froze, but slowly looked up. Another mistletoe was hanging above her and Nile, courtesy of Miu.
"Aww, crap." Yuki said. "Do I have to?"
"Yes, you do." Miu said.
"Let's get this over with." Nile said. He lifted her chin and pressed his lips onto hers. Yuki flushed a deep red. After about ten seconds, he took his lips off. They all got grins from the others, until one question arose.
"What did it taste like?" Hanako asked.
Well, you can probably imagine what happened. Nile had muttered "Cherries", while Yuki muttered "Bananas". Then to get the embarrassment off of them, Yuki has asked Hanako what her kiss with Dashan tasted like. That got everyone to confess what their kiss tasted like to them, for Hanako it tasted like mint ice cream, and for Dashan it tasted like rose cake. Kyoya said he tasted coke, and Hikaru had tasted...apple pie. That made everyone laugh. Madoka had obviously tasted burgers, and Gingka had tasted cinnamon rolls. As revenge for what Miu had done, Yuki had hung a mistletoe above her and Tsubasa.
"So, what did it taste like?" Yuki asked, a smirk on her face.
"Key lime pie." Tsubasa and Miu said at the same time.
"Pfft..." Hanako burst out with laughter.
"Oh yeah, Kiyoko, you should check where you stand next time something like this happens." Miu said. Kiyoko was confused. Madoka pointed to the ceiling. There was a mistletoe. Above her and Chao Xin. Chao Xin grinned, while Kiyoko blushed. The Chinese teen pressed his lips against Kiyoko's delicate ones for about twenty seconds.
"It tasted like cotton candy." Chao Xin said, knowing fully that they would ask the question.
"What about you, Kiyoko?" Miu asked.
"Ramen." Kiyoko answered.
"Okay, no more mistletoes today." Yuki said.
"Seriously." Gingka agreed.
"Even though it's kinda funny, no more." Masamune said, fearing that he would be the next victim. Miu cleared her throat.
"Too late for that. There's already one last one hanging." Miu said. The half Egyption girl pointed above Hanako, where another mistletoe hung above her and Dashan.
"MIU!" The brunette shouted.
Me: The information for the four OCs are on my profile, as well as another OC who will show up later in another drabble.
Hanako: Miu...you have no idea how much I want to use Leaf Dance on you...
Miu: I can just force you to go shopping with me, you know.
Hanako: OKAY, I won't! As long as you don't make me go shopping!
FUN FACT: I got WHITE BEATS for Christmas, and they're really high quality! :D
QUESTION OF THE CHAPTER/DRABBLE: If you celebrate Christmas, what'd you get? ;)
Me: Hope you have a happy holidays!
Hanako: Tomorrow another drabble with be out because it's vacation and Gemstone Gal doesn't have any homework to do or anything.
Kiyoko: W-we hope you liked i-it!
