Chaos: Wow, this one took less time than I thought.
Bryan: When you don't have a life things get done quicker.
Chaos: Ok buddy boy you know the drill or else. *holds a remote in hand*
Bryan: What's that for? *eyes it suspiciously*
Chaos: Glad you asked. *smiles and presses button that drops a cage around Bryan* Now you know what to do.
Bryan: Gah! Fine Chaoschick12 doesn't own Beyblade or its characters just her OC's. Now get me out of here! *starts shaking the cage while the others laugh at him*
Chaos: Oops. *sweat drop* while I go find the key to his cage enjoy the chapter. *runs past a pissed Bryan still locked in his cage*
~*Enemies True Face*~
Later on that night when they returned back to Kai's at around 10 p.m., the guys changed and headed downstairs. Tonya had stayed upstairs and had taken a long bath, enjoying the nice large tub before they had to leave for New York. Kai and Tala both agreed to leave tomorrow as soon as they got back from watching the last two matches of the Japan leg. She pushed herself out of the tub and wrapped a towel around herself before letting the water out of the tub. She walked back into her room and locked the door. She loved that her room and bathroom were connected together. Tonya changed into her new pj's she'd bought at the store and enjoyed the warmth they gave her. Here pj's were a black spaghetti strap shirt that was somewhat tight on her body with grey fuzzy sweats that were rolled over a few times. She combed her hair out and when that was finished, went to sit on her bed and think.
'Why is this happening again? Last time it flared this bad was about a year ago. I thought I'd finally gotten control over this. Things don't add up. It just doesn't make any sense that it should be happening again.' She sat there in the dark with her knees drawn up to her chest. She heard a knock on her door and turned to see Kai standing there.
"I know your bitbeast likes the dark, but I didn't think you did." He walked over to her bed as she sat there. "What's wrong?" He took one look at her face and could tell something was troubling her, she never really tried to hide anything.
"It's nothing really. Just a nagging feeling I got is all. Came to check on me and make sure I wasn't up to something?" She smiled at him and Kai just nodded.
"Yeah I guess you could say that. The rest of us are going to bed so don't stay up too late ok?"
"I'll be sure to brush my teeth before bed too 'dad'." She rolled her eyes and winked as Kai stood and messed up her hair before leaving.
Kai shut the door behind him, leaving Tonya alone in the dark. She sighed and figured she'd try and get some sleep even though she'd probably end up waking up again later. She got under her covers and got comfortable before closing her eyes. For once in almost two weeks, she slept peacefully.
_._._
"There you have it folks! Justice 5 takes their first win over BT Battalion!"
Tala growled at the name of that team. They all knew he of all people hated them the most. Tonya rolled her eyes and Bryan just chuckled at her. She sat between Bryan and Spencer today in the stands. Since they were the biggest, they hid her from curious fans and could easily scare anyone off if necessary. Tonya yawned and leaned her head against Spencer's shoulder. It was like having a pillow that she didn't have to carry around. The team had been up since about 5 a.m. going through a light work out schedule. At first she'd been fine, but now that they weren't doing anything her exhaustion had caught up with her. Thankfully though, after this they were heading back to Kai's place and grabbing their packed clothes and gear and hopping on the first plane to America.
"Now it's time for the final match of the Japan leg of the tournament. Making their debut is the Eternal Knights against the Majestics!" Both teams walked out there and took their spots at their sides of the fields.
"Hey what's wrong?" Spencer saw Tonya snap up and become suddenly alert. Her eyes were darting around trying to find something.
"I can feel another darkness blader." She leaned forward, trying to figure out where he was.
"Wait, you can tell when someone with a darkness bitbeast is near?" Spencer saw Tonya nod her head as she kept looking around.
"Yeah, it's something my uncle taught me to do. When we were introduced on the first day I could already tell there were two other darkness bladers. I knew one was Brooklyn, but the other I was unsure of. It's one of them down there that's for sure, but I can't tell which one." She leaned back with a frustrated look on her face.
"And how exactly can you tell that it's a darkness bitbeast?" Bryan looked at her skeptically and she glanced at him. Kai and Tala had tuned in to hear what she had to say.
"Well it's hard to explain but I'll try my best. See I've had Shadow all my life, so I can tell what darkness energy feels like. According to a theory I once heard, it can't all be contained within the user. If they tried to keep it from escaping that person would indefinitely lose their mind. Just like Brooklyn did when Kai beat him last year. He never expended enough energy to keep it in check. When he lost the match, he lost control of his power. That's why it seemed like it multiplied in power whenever he faced Tyson. The same would happen with you guys if you tried to suppress your power for a long time, it would find a way out. I've been around this energy all my life so I know what it feels like and can sense it easily. Whoever it's coming from isn't trying to hide it." She folded her arms across her chest and the guys followed her eyes down to the dish where the first two bladers were standing.
It was the two female bladers. Julia walked over to the dish with a confident smile on her face. She planned to take her opponent out quickly and easily. The other girl was her complete opposite though. She had pitch black hair that was pulled up into a clip so it looked spiked in the back. Her eyes were green and she wasn't as small as the Spanish girl. She wore a dark blue tube top with a long sleeved off the shoulder fishnet covering. Her jeans were dark and she wore belts that crisscrossed over each other. Her whole team was dressed in dark clothes. This girl's name was Raven.
"Ready ladies? 3, 2, 1, let it rip!"
As the two girls launched, the one called Raven took control of the match right away. Her blue and silver blade began to pound on Julia's blade relentlessly. Raven wasn't about to pull any punches. Her blade came in hard and swift, each time it struck it took a piece of the purple blade with it. The damage was reflected onto Julia as wounds would appear all over her body. Raven stood there with her arms folded across her chest with a smug look on her face.
"Oh no, Thunder Pegasus don't give up!" Julia hollered at her blade. She tried her best to keep up her defense, but it did little good.
"It's too late for that now! Ero take her out now!" The blue blade complied by circling around to gain speed and slamming the purple blade into the air. Half of the blade shattered as it fell and landed behind Julia.
Julia sank to her knees, stunned by the power of Raven's blade. She'd been beaten so easily like she hadn't even tried to put up a fight. Raven caught her blade and looked down at the Spanish girl who had tears streaming down her face. Enrique and Oliver ran over to help her and they looked up at the smug Raven. Julia wasn't it very good condition and Oliver tended to her while an angered Enrique turned and faced Raven.
"You didn't have to destroy her blade like that." Enrique glanced back at the half destroyed blade and then at his new teammate.
"If she wasn't so weak then that wouldn't have happened." Raven turned and walked away, leaving a fuming Oliver and Enrique to help their friend back to the bench.
Johnny walked up to the dish next and he was against a boy named Rai. His hair was green and spiked and his eyes grey. He wore a dark green muscle shirt with pants that had chains hanging from the pockets. He wore a cocky grin on his face as he loaded his dark orange blade onto his launcher.
"You're gonna pay for what your teammate did to Julia." Johnny glared at Rai who just laughed.
"I'd worry about yourself first. You're going to end up just like your teammate over there." He smirked at Johnny who growled in response.
"3, 2, 1, let it rip!"
When they launched and their blades landed in the dish, it became a game of cat and mouse. Johnny began to chase Rai who easily stayed out of harms way. Neither one was touching each other, Rai wouldn't let that happen. Every time Johnny got close to him Rai would dodge and run. He loved to see Johnny get angered and he only kept it up enjoying their little game of tag they had. At the bench, one of Rai's teammates grew agitated and couldn't stand his playing around anymore.
"Stop messing around and finish him off Rai! Or so help me I'll beat the shit out of you when you get done." A boy with short dark blue hair and maroon eyes stood up and yelled at his teammate. He wore an open zip up jacket with pants like Rai's.
"Geez Jason, you're such a buzz kill. Alright Darion you heard him! Take him out now!" Rai's blade turned around and headed for Johnny's blade.
"Salamalyon, defend yourself!" but it did little good.
Rai's blade hit and never gave Johnny a chance to recover and defend. The attacks came one after another. Rai's blade would hit, bounce off slightly, and come back at a different angle making a circle around Johnny's blade. He was continuously pounded and finally his blade was sent into the air and out of the dish. His blade was just a lump with the center still intact. Rai called his blade back and returned to his bench, where Jason sat eyeing him.
"It's one of the last two, I'm sure of it." For the first time since the match had started, Tonya spoke. Her eyes were trained on the only two left on the bench.
"We'll have to keep an eye on them. If your theory is right and the one who controls the darkness is like those two, we could have a problem." Kai folded his arms across his chest as he trained his eyes on the last two bladers left for Eternal Knights.
The last two boys were talking quietly amongst themselves. The Majestics hadn't sent anyone up yet, waiting for their decision. One boy was fair skinned with long silvery hair that was braided and went to about his knees. His eyes were golden and he was dressed in a grey vest. His pants were black and he looked like a fallen angel to some girls. The other was his complete opposite. His hair was crimson red and it hung straight to his shoulders framing his face. His eyes were a cold icy blue and he was just as fair skinned. He wore a long sleeved black shirt that was undone with the cuffs rolled back somewhat. A white muscle shirt was underneath his black shirt, it was obvious that he and his male teammates were all well toned. His pants were black as was his shoes. This was the one to stand and make his way to the dish. Many girls were screaming at him, his quiet and serious attitude was apparently popular with them.
"It looks like we have a captain's battle everyone! Craig from Eternal Knights will face Robert of the Majestics!"
Craig stood there silently loading his blade, his face portraying calm. Robert on the other hand was angered. He planned to take revenge for his teammates. As soon as Craig had separated himself from his teammate, Tonya knew he was the one. She saw him turn his head a fraction and got the strangest feeling as if he knew she was staring at him. From the look on her face, the others knew who they had to watch.
"Ready? 3, 2, 1, let it rip!"
'I hope you're watching.' Tonya's eyes widened, but she got them back in control and started to scan the crowd. Someone had entered her mind, and how she didn't know but planned to find out. Down below the match had started and Robert had taken control.
'A little confused are we? Look down.' Her gaze trailed down and she had been right earlier. Craig's head was still turned slightly and the side of his mouth was pulled into a grin.
'How the hell did you enter my mind?' She kept looking down, but her eyes kept flickering between him and the battle taking place. Robert was still controlling the match, but Craig didn't seem bothered.
'It's simple if you know what you're looking for. If you'd wanted to you could've entered mine. I wouldn't have blocked it from you.' He turned back around to focus on the battle at hand.
'What the hell do you want?' Tonya's arms were still folded across her chest. She hid her hands, she didn't want to let the guys see her nails digging into her palms.
'Nothing…at the moment. I felt your energy leaking off of you as if a sweet aroma had caught my attention. You don't realize how much of your power you're repressing do you? So much you could do if you just let it free.' She could hear a mocking tone to his voice as she tried hard not to growl.
'I only release enough to where I can still stay in control. If all is released at once you should know what will happen.' She focused on the battle below and saw that Robert actually looked like he was winning.
'You believe that if one lets it all go at once that you'll lose control? That only applies to those who don't have control and can't accept their entire selves and repress things they don't wish to see. So many doors could be opened if you just let it go.' Something about what he'd said sparked her curiosity.
'What do you mean by that?'
'Now why should I reveal my secrets to you all at once? If you really wish to know, you'll find a way to meet with me again in the future. But for now allow me to show you what kind of power you could have if you allowed yours to run free.' As he spoke that his black and red blade finally kicked into gear.
Right as the big blue and purple blade was attacking, it was pushed back and the tides turned. The red and black blade began to slam Robert's blade hard, never showing any mercy. With each hit another piece of blade flew into the air and shattered. Craig's calm face slowly changed and soon a deranged look appeared in his eyes. Tonya could only guess what was going to happen next, but she didn't want to see it.
"It's time to show you what true power looks like!" A crimson aura began to surround him as Craig slowly raised his hand.
The stadium began to grow dark as a red light shot out of the blade. What formed from it though put fear into almost anyone who looked at it. It was a demon, plain and simple. It had the head of a hydra with two horns pointing back from its head. Its body was stretched out, it had a big chest but the farther it went down the smaller the torso got. On its back were bony spikes with webbing between them trailing all the way down to where the tail began. The tail was twice the length of its body, and at the end were various spikes sticking out in every way imaginable. Its claws were long and curved and the wings looked like that of a bat's.
"Now Sheraio finish this with Reaper's Strike!"
The demon claw's extended as it swooped down towards Robert. He was stunned with fear, but was able to bring his arms up in defense just in time. The demon's attack connected and Robert along with his blade were both flung into the air. All but his bitchip exploded in the air. Blood flew into the air from the five gashes that went in a diagonal line across Robert's body. He hit hard and was knocked out cold with his eyes rolled up into his head. His bitchip landed next to him in his blood that was leaking from all over his chest and arms. Medics rushed to help him as Craig caught his blade and returned to his team and walked away. He glanced up once at Tonya with a grin on his face and then walked away. Tonya was only vaguely aware of the boys helping her up and leading her away from the place.
Ok first off Craig's bitbeasts name is pronounced Sh-eh-rai-o. And that chapter took me for ever to write so I hope you all liked it.
