WARNING: Everything will be based on the first season of the anime. I don't own anything. Except for my bitbeast character of course and Emiko since of course she is me. There will be some differences though so get ready for it
Chapter 3
The streets were crowded as Max and I were walking through the busy town. People were walking here and there talking about probably beyblade. Thank goodness they weren't staring at me because I absolutely look ridiculous with my outfit right now. It's not that I'm embarrassed but the fact that my outfit is a little torn here and there. Every five seconds I hear about different people talking about the Asian tournament. Everywhere I go there's always kids beyblading. This world is completely different from mine. Even the alleys are full of beybladers. Ha, usually an alley is full of dangerous gangsters looking for trouble. Come to think of it, people here always challenge each other into a beyblade match. Good? Yes because in the show, I never see guns at all(Well maybe from the Demolition Boys but then again it's their launcher). When they want to tear each other apart, they practically do it with beyblading.
"Wow," I observed. "People here are quite obsessed with beyblade."
"It is a popular sport," Max pointed out. "Beyblading is such a wonderful sport."
"So is tennis, badminton, and volleyball." I said.
Max chuckled a bit, "Those are fun too. But don't worry Emi, your are definitely going to love beyblading"
"Well from the looks of it, it is quite interesting." I agreed.
"Go to the crater," a voice whispered into my head. "Please hurry."
"Wha?" I gasped and became suspicious.
"What's wrong? Max asked me. I was haunted by a voice is what I want to say. But instead,
"I-It's nothing" I stuttered. Voice in my head, please go away.
"Well we're here," Max said as we stopped at one of the clothing stores available in Japan. "Is this store okay for you?"
I looked at the window's mannequins that wore the clothes that the store has. It is cute. A lot of people say I dress really nice in school and hopefully I can do the same here. I guess I should buy a couple of outfits and a pair of pajamas.
I nodded. "Yea, I'm sure I can find something cute here."
"That's good then," Max said. "Well, I have to leave you for awhile. I almost forgot that Kenny asked me to get some spare parts for repairing our beyblades. Are you gonna be okay alone?"
"Of course!" I hesitated. "Meet you back here in fifteen minutes?"
"Sure" Max agreed. "See ya Emi!"
"See ya later alligator!" I giggled. I went inside and it was pretty cold. There were different kinds of tops, pants, shirts, dresses. All of that good stuff. I started to walk around the store reminding myself I have a time limit to the store. I sighed as I wonder who that voice was and why she was saying that. What's in the crater? And why must I hurry? It is definitely getting weirder every minute. I'm only here for half a day.
I finally got the outfit that I want to wear: I got a aquamarine-colored knee length dress that reaches my thigh. It's not too long or not too short at all. Just perfect. I also bought leather boots to go with it and let me tell you it did. Another outfit I bought is of course another dress. But it is a salmon-colored sleeveless dress. The bottom part of it is quite puffy and ruffled too. But it is rather cute so I just have to get it. I decided that these two outfits are enough for me. And a pair of pajamas of course. As I was walking to the cash register, the same voice appeared again.
"Go to the crater..."
Damn that voice again. I shook my head side to side and hopefully I get it out. I continued to walk towards the cash register and paid for my stuff. I went straight to the fitting rooms and changed my outfit. Now I wore the salmon-colored sleeveless dress and the black leather boots. But before I exited the store, I bought a black headband with a slightly huge bow on the side. I had a quick look in the mirror as I adjusted the mirror on my head. Damn, this outfit is rather more appropriate for partying.
When I left the store, I saw Max walking towards my way carrying a bag.
"Hey hey!" I greeted the blonde, nice teen. "What's in the bag?"
"Hey Emi," Max greeted. "Oh, these are only parts for the beyblade that Kenny asked for."
"Ahh, I see" I said."Well, let's go."
"Nice outfit Emi," Max complimented."It looks good on you."
"Thanks," I giggled.
Max and I started to walk towards the park where we agreed to meet. I still can't help but think about that damn voice in my head. Was it my conscious? Or did a ghost get trapped inside my head? Is that even possible?And why the heck does that voice want me to the crater? Ah! I want to just scream out loud just for the heck of it.
I was so distracted about well practically everything that I didn't even notice we were at the park already.
"We're here, Emi" Max said. "And there's everyone else"
I looked to see what Max was looking at. I saw Tyson battling against a guy with a Chinese outfit and a red headband across his forehead with the yin yang sign in the center.
"Go Driger!" Chinese boy shouted out. A sudden greenish glow burst out from one of the beyblades and a white tiger appeared. It growled and it was ready for the attack.
"Dragoon, Attack!" Tyson yelled out as he called out his own bitbeast. I watched in awe as the tiger and the dragon attacked one another.
"Woah," I gasped.
"Those are bitbeasts," Max started to explain. "They are animal spirits that well give our beyblades power."
"They're legendary right?" I asked even though I already know that they are.
"Yeah," Max answered. "Can you really see them?"
"Did you saw my "woah" face?" I asked and laughed. "Of course I did!"
"Dragoon belongs to Tyson, Ray has Driger as his bitbeast, Kai over there by the tree has Dranzer as his own bitbeast. And yours truly has the power of the mighty Draciel" Max took out his green beyblade to show me what Draciel looks like. Of course, I already know all of this stuff. But I have to pretend I don't know anything for now.
Tyson and Ray sure are taking the battle quite seriously but at the same time they were having fun .
"Storm Attack!" Tyson called out.
"Tiger Claw Attack!" Ray yelled with pride. Both of the blades started to spin more rapidly than before. Both blades gave each other a final blow until the two were knocked out of the dish and was caught by the owners.
"Nice work you guys!" Kenny complimented after typing some stuff on his laptop.
"Nice one, Ray!" Tyson yelled out.
"That was awesome!" Ray exclaimed. Then, his eyes faced mine with curiosity.
"Who is she, Max?" Ray asked.
"That's Emi," Tyson introduced me. "She's pretty new to this town."
"Oh I see," Ray said as he approached me. "Nice to meet you I'm-"
"Ray" I said, cutting him off.
"Right" Ray said with a weird look at his face as if he was wondering how I got his name right.
"Oh, I overheard Tyson saying your name so yea" I said. Looks like introduction will be quite a first for me. Back home, I just start talking to people before asking their name. Weird right?
"That was an awesome battle!" I complimented the two with a bright smile.
"Thanks Emi!" Tyson said. "You and I have to battle whenever you get your own beyblade of course"
"Heck yea!" I laughed.
"Go to the crater..."
I twitched in fear as that voice came back into my head. I feel weak all of a sudden. Probably because I'm still trying to adjust myself to this world.
"Is she okay Tyson?" Ray asked with a concerned tone.
"I don't know Ray," Tyson said. "She may have remembered something."
I overheard what they were saying and I came back to reality.
"Um, no" I lied. "It's nothing really. I still don't remember anything."
"Oh ok," Tyson said as he raised his brow giving me a suspicious look. All of a sudden, the boy leaning against the tree walked towards the team with a cold face. What can I say? In this season, Kai is quite cold-hearted.
"What are you guys doing standing there?" Kai ordered. "We have alot of work to do if we want to win the Asian tournaments!"
"Yes,sir" Tyson groaned as he gets ready for another practice round. "Come on Max, let's battle!
"Oh yeah!" Max exclaimed excitedly. "Bring it on Tyson!"
I went towards to Kenny and sat next to the beylade genius.
"Hey Kenny," I greeted.
"Hey there, Emi" Kenny greeted back as he starts his analysis for the battle.
"Gathering data?" I asked.
"Yup," Kenny said. "Dizzi and I analyze their beyblades in order for us to know what we can do to improve their blades. But even if we improve them physically, it's their job to improve it themselves."
"I see," I said pretending to be amazed. I watched two standing at the opposite of each other of their practice with their beyblades ready to launch for battle.
"3" Tyson said with eagerness to win this match even though it's only practice
"2" Max said also with eagerness
"1. Let it rip!" Both yelled at the same time and they launched their beyblades into the dish. The two blades circled around before they went head to head.
"Draciel!" Max called out his bitbeast. The turtle-type bitbeast rose up ready to attack.
"Dragoon, Attack!" Tyson yelled, calling out the blue dragon. The bit part of the blades were both glowing intensely as the dragon and the turtle started to attack each other. My eyes watched with amazement but at the same time I feel a little drowsy. It's not that I'm sleepy it's just that something is making me feel like fainting.
"Please, you must go the crater..." the voice pleaded. It was that same damn voice again! Ugh! When is that gonna go away? Without thinking, I suddenly covered my head, closed my eyes really tightly and yelled out unexpectedly,
"Get out of my head!"
Kenny gasped and almost fell out of the bench while Kai and Ray turned to my direction with curiosity. Meanwhile, Max and Tyson got distracted causing the beyblades to stop spinning. Both of them turned towards my direction. I had annoyance in my eyes since that voice won't stop.
"What the heck was that?" Tyson said, annoyed by the distraction.
Everyone was staring at me with a look on their faces. I can pretty much tell what they're gonna say. I started to laugh nervously and scratched my head.
"My bad, My bad" I laughed and I covered my face. I feel quite embarrassed and ashamed after distracting them.
"Is there something wrong, Emi?" Kenny asked.
"You look troubled or something" Ray observed.
"No, it's just" I sighed and got up. "It's nothing. I'm alright. I'll be over there at the swings so I won't distract your training anymore" Before they could reply, I quickly walked away and sat on a swing, All of the guys were looking at me with a worried look. I smiled and waved at them letting them know I was okay. Tyson seems to get the message and they all continued to practice. Max against Tyson and Ray against Kai. I can see all four holy bitbeasts all the way from here. I watched them going against one another but my head was still thinking about that voice. I wonder if I should really visit the crater just to get a clue.
A shadowy figure made me jump. I looked up to see Kai with a serious look on his face. And boy was it scary.
"You may fool the others but I can tell that something's bothering you." Kai analyzed. I gave him a small glare and smirked.
"So I guess you noticed." We both stared at each other for a moment. Glaring is more like it.
"Tell me," Kai demanded. "What was that all about?"
"I believe it's none of your business" I said coldly. Yea, that's right. I know Kai is distant towards everyone so I decided to give him a taste of his own medicine. Karma right there baby. "Just leave me alone, don't you need practice or are you too good for this?"
"Well I am the best here," Kai bragged. I laughed.
"If your really are the best, then how come you didn't win the beyblade competition. Tyson told me all about it. Don't tell me you let him win as a birthday present." I teased.
Kai seemed to be quite offended but didn't say anything. Instead, he grunted and walked away. I laughed and started swinging. I swear it's been a while since I've done this. I remember swinging high and getting off without stopping myself. It feels like your flying when you jumped off the swings while your swinging. I landed perfectly on the ground. I watched the bladebreakers practiced with enthusiasm and I smiled to myself. A breeze touched my skin and I felt like the wind could communicate with me somehow. Wow, now I feel like Pocahontas. I sighed and closed my eyes as I felt the breeze. All of a sudden, my body felt hot as I was having a strange vision. It was that dream that caused to somehow transport me into this world. The weird light reappeared in front of me but this time, It was more vivid. The light turned into a woman that looked like a goddess. She had long golden hair and bright aqua eyes. She wears a knee length white criss-cross dress and carried a staff with both hands. She had a gentle smile on her face. I had a face of a curious cat.
"Who are you?" I asked in fear. I feel like I'm seeing a ghost.
"I am Vasilia," the woman told me. "I was the one who brought you here"
I couldn't help but familiarize myself with that voice. Ah! It was the same voice that kept telling me to go to that damn crater!
"Your the voice that was in my head," I gasped. "Why am I here?"
"Because you are," Vasilia paused. "My heiress"
"Say what?" I screeched. "How? When?"
"You will find out when you go to the crater," Vasilia explained in a serious tone. She smiled as she disappeared.
"Wait!" I yelled.
But she was gone.
I gasped and woke up from that vision. I rubbed my eyes to wake myself up more. I glanced over at the bladebreakers as they surrounded the beyblade and computer genius. I walked towards them to see what was going on.
"What up?" I asked. Ray looked at me and smiled.
"Hey Emi," Ray greeted. "Kenny was just telling us how we did during our training"
"I see," I mumbled. "Um, Can I get a favor?"
"What is it?" Tyson asked curiously.
"I need to go to the crater where you found me." I answered. "I have something to do there"
"What are you going to do there?" Max asked. "That crater is nothing but a big fat hole."
"Please," I insisted. "I have to go there."
"All right if you insist," Tyson agreed.
"Thanks" I said. I wonder what is going to happen when I go to the crater.
That night, The bladebreakers and I went to scene where the crater mysteriously appeared.
"We're here," Tyson said. "So what now?"
I ignored Tyson's question as I headed towards the crater. The big, mysterious hole was blocked by construction stuff. Thank goodness there was no one on duty. I was at the center of the crater already looking around. Nothing was happening.
"I wonder what's going on," Ray asked as he looked at the crater. "Wow, this crater must have been something."
"You got that right, Ray" Max agreed. "That's the place where we found Emi."
"What?" Kai and Ray gasped. Kai gave me a suspicious look but I never noticed.
I walked around the crater.
"Vasilia?" I called out. "I'm here"
The crater suddenly started glowing really brightly and I was surrounded by it's warmth. Vasilia appeared in front of me with her usual, gentle smile.
"Woah!" Tyson yelled. "It's that same light again!" Everyone shield themselves from the intense brightness. Tyson squinted a bit to see me and Vasilia.
"You have finally arrived," she said. "Now I can tell you this story." Vasilia closed her eyes for a moment before she started to explain everything.
"Wait," I interrupted politely. "How am I the heiress?"
"That's because, you are my daughter." I gasped at this news. First, I get transported to the world of beyblading and now I'm a princess?
" I once ruled a kingdom where all bitbeasts lived together," Vasilia started to explain. "Each bitbeast has their own choice of who deserves to be their owners. The most powerful ones are Dragoon, Dranzer, Draciel and Driger are the most powerful ones"
"Tyson and the others possessed those bitbeasts" I told Vasilia.
"That is correct," she said. "Because they feel like they are worthy of controlling their powers. Every bitbeast is very powerful and really well. Every bitbeast except, black dranzer"
"Black Dranzer?" I raised a brow. Black Dranzer was an evil bitbeast. Correction, it was Dranzer's evil twin. I remember watching it before. Kai apparently got hypnotized by it's power and decided to betray his teammates and temporarily turned evil.
"He's a dark bitbeast that came out of nowhere." Vasilia explained. "It was another peaceful day at the kingdom." The goddess-like lady giggled for a moment. "And as usual, you were always running around with happiness. Ah, it was a beautiful day. It was until a dark light mysteriously appeared out of nowhere. We all ran in fear but I had to do something to stop it." Vasilia held her staff tightly. "Black Dranzer was too powerful but we did everything we could . Every bitbeast gave their power to annihilate that hideous creature. However, he was way too powerful. For everyone's safety I have to send everyone to safety . Especially you, my little one. I sealed you away and sent you to another dimension. Where Black Dranzer can't harm you in anyway. The reason why you are here right now is because I sense that Black Dranzer is back. And only you have the power to stop him"
"How am I suppose to do that?" I asked. Vasilia smiled.
"You can find that out on your own," she told me. "My time is running out." Vasilia pointed her staff directly at me and a small bluish-green light appeared in front of me. I was stunned at the sight of the light as it slowly turned into an actual beyblade.
"Wow," I whispered. I put my hands up as I caught the blade. It was turquoise with golden swirls. It looked totally amazing.
"That beyblade will help you, Emiko." Vasilia said. "The bitbeast is none like any other. She is named, Celesta"
"Celesta" I repeated. "I'm going to control this blade?"
"Yes you are," Vasilia smiled. "Good luck, Emiko"
The beautiful lady disappeared. Leaving me alone once again. Tyson and the others ran towards me. Everyone else except Kai of course.
"Emi are you alright?" Max asked in a concerned tone. He glanced at what I was holding. "And where did that beyblade came from?"
"It just appeared," I explained. "And yeah, I'm fine but I am a bit tired."
"Well, we might as well get home and rest up" Tyson said.
"Yeah" everyone agreed. I looked at the bit part of the blade where a picture of Celesta was in. I held my beyblade tightly and smiled a little. I didn't noticed Kai's suspicious look at all.
"Just who are you?" Kai asked me but I didn't hear his question. We all left the scene and headed home.
