Were Blading, Blading in the U.S.A!
So here I am on the plane to the states, I almost felt close to home. Tyson was laying there complaining about some bad pretzles, apperantly the prezles were at fault for hislack of eating fruits. I myself chose an orange. I looked over at Max as he got teary eye'd at the thought of seeing his mom. I shook my head, mama's boys che. After we got off the plane Tyson and Kenny were checking out the tall buildings. which always made me kinda twitchy, I mean, it was always so tempting to jump off of them...
"wow I bet we could take an elevator all the way to the top! Race you there" Tyson explaimed. I shook my head
"meh tall buildings always make me dizzy" I lied. Though I guess it wasn't a real lie. The thought of throwing myself over the edge always made me dizzy. I was so tempted to say 'I'll race you to the bottom I win!"
"Don't forget were here for the American tournement and we have a lot of training to do" I let out a breath good, no feild trips to the tops of buildings. Or down. Then Tyson's grandpa pulled up out of the BBA bus
"Hey little dudes and dudette!" he came over and ruffled my hair. I blinked then moved away from him. I didn't need Tysons grandpa getting all chumy with me like he was.
"Aww come on Grandpa leave her alone" he said. I blushed ugh could this be any worse? Oh yes there he went, showing off to a crowed. Joy though his moves were cool. Ray pulled up in a bus, I ended up staying with him.
"come on were going ona feild trip!" he called to me and Tyson. As we bussed to the ressurce facility for beyblading Grandpa sang on the bus. As we aproched the building I noted it was beyblade shapped. As Kenny explained it Ray commented how it was cool we even got to see it. If you ask me, I didn't care about the science, some parts worked well together some didn't and I was content with my blade. We met Jeff, the education facilitator or something. Either way he looked too showboaty for me. I didn't pay attention to his mumbo jumbo about science. Kenny seemed to be enjoying himself. Kai seemed just as unimpressed as I was.
"This is a load of bull" I murrmerd to him
"Something seems wrong here!" Tyson exlaimed, oh wow a reason to respect him, go figure! "all of this to figure out the perfect beyblade, but where does skill and stratagy come in?"
"Amen" I cheered, which got a glare from Kenny, oopth. Tyson continued his rant
"Not to mention the grit determination and heart! what do you think Cheif" as we looked over to Kenny he was cleaning the facility going on and on. Max's mom wonderd over, she was pretty! Holly hell!
"Excuse me, let me introduce the head director of the BBA" Jeff told us
"My mom is head honcho?" he said happly.
"Yes Judy is a very important member of our organization". I blinked, oh my. "And these are the blade breakers" Jeff introduced the rest of us, thanks Max
"You didn't tell me you were part of a championship team" Judy said
"Yeah I'm sorry I was caught up in it all" Max explained. As we walked through the facility Jusy explained to us more sciencey shit
"I still think the blade is only as strong as the player using it" Tyson mumbled. I couldn't have been happier to know him right now, so I stood next to him, Kai was bogging me down with his bad vibes anyways, oh god I was around Grandpa too much now hah...uh.
"I couldn't agree more Tyson not many people know about this but out facility also contains a training center complete with a state of the art practice stadium". I rolled my eyes and looked down at the center. Yeah it was huge and great and all but it felt so cold to me. If this was the future of blading was it still too late to jump off the building?
"We give our bladers proper nutrition to maximize their full potential, we have classes and those who get into our advanced class learn to control even the most challenging beyblade Paul more firm movement on your launch" she told a boy down in the statidum area. I grimsed
"stae of the art this state of the art that god forbid they tough it out on their own" I said cynically. Thats when the red headed girl I bairly noticed stepped forward and actually spoke
"Watch it kid you'd have no chance against us!" she sneered at me. I stepped forward
"Wanna bet?" I sneered back. A hand grabbed my shoulder
"Lets not give our stratagies away to the oponents" Kai whisperd in my ear. I shudderd ick he was too close!
"Even if you changed it up to confuse them they still have enough machines to figure you out". I glared at him
"You saying my stratagy is that simplistic? don't forget it gave you a run for your money" I retorted. Kai shook his head
"Don't forget who won". I blinked, I wanted to slap him, better yet I wanted to get out of this eletest place, who did that girl this she was? God's gift to beyblading? peh!
"I agree with Koojiru" Tyson piped in "we trained the old fasioned way and I bet were just as good as those guys down there". I smiled and blushed, who knew Tyson was so down to earth? It was hard to remember with all his bragging though!
"Oh really?" the red headed girl stepped in once more. God she irked me! "Challange accepted" She said with a cocky smile. I jumped forward
"Great you and me chickita!" Kai grumbled behind me "and you shut up for once!" I turned and pointed to him. He just glared at me and and rolled his eyes, so I returned it with sticking my toung out. Ass.
"Well hot shot are you ready to put your blade where your mouth is?" she continued
"Are you serious?" Tyson asked
"I tought you were my moms assistent?" Max asked. SHe wasn't a very good one, ugly to boot.
"She is Emily here is a master of many other talents as well shes a tennis player, as well as being an excilent beyblader" Judy so kindly inforumed us
"Uh your a beyblader?" Tyson popped in
"my setiments exactly" I said
"Yeah why do you sound so suprised?" Emily asked with more cockyness in her voice
"You seem more a bookworm type then a beyblader" he retorted. I stiffled a laugh, it was true! wait hey! I was book worm! Now I glared at Tyson. Emily just smiled.
"Andy, Tony you two stay everyone else please leave the training area thank you" Jusy said
"these three competetors should prove to be more then a match then you guys can handle" I rolled my eyes, I bet they couldn't handle my launcher up their asses, the poll was in the way. Emily looked to Kai
"Got something to say there tough guy?" she asked with a flirty sneer. Erk! Not to mention gag!
"I'm in!" Tyson said "what about you Ray?"
"I'm not about to back away from a challenge. Tyson went to turn to Max but I budded in
"I want to go" I said clenching my fist. Kai shot me a warning glance. I blinked and thought about what he said
"actually Max yeah what about you?" I turned to Max. He seemed tence.
"Whats going on here mom?" he asked. I walked over to him and put my hand on his shoulder. He didn't respond he was too lost in thought. We progressed to the training area. Emily kept bragging. It was a best of three match. Tysons apponent was all cocky. And his launcher was weird. I stood behind Tyson and pumped my fist in the air
"Go man!". Tyson's opponent started rapping. Turned out his beyblade was rigged to match his rythem. Tyson was getting annoyed
"Chill out there little dude, listen to the beat and pick up the moves" Tyson grandpa said
"Yeah man" I started tapping my foot to the beat. Tyson took him out. The girl I thought was a girl turned out to be a boy. Ray was up next, go figure his opponent had an esal as a launcher. And his beyblade made colours. Ok I admit I wanted mine to do that. Ray was in serious trouble. His beyblade was camo flauged. I looked up at the window, Kai was up there, was I supposed to not be here? Oops. Ray whiped away the colours and took him out.
"The winner is, Ray" Judy said plainley. I was so excited that my team was winning, though Kenny seemed lost in thought
"See Cheif, I told you skill was more important to beybladeing then science" Tyson said. I watched Kenny closely and rememberd Kais words, I got it now.
"Somethings not right" Kenny said. I glared up at Judy, she was begining to make me mad. Why was Max so dependant on her? Didn't he know beyblading was a competitive sport? I walked over to him
"Hey man, you got this, just be careful" I said raising an eyebrow at Max when he looked at me
"My mom would never cheat us!" he protested. I stepped back, the look in his eyes said I had struck a chord the wrong way
"I- I'm sorry" I said stepping back. Fine be blind! I was jsut glad I didn't go now. He stepped up to face Emily now, same doppy smile and all. I could tell something was up with him so I went to join Kai and give him some space.
"Get it now?" he asked me loud enough for Judy to hear. She simply smiled at me and I smiled back
"Yeah, though the mind is often mroe complex then science can even handle" I said leaning against the window. Kai actually smiled at me! What the hell? Yay I guess? max was already in the battle and Judy was watching cooly from the area we were in. I watched at Max got creamed. Good to know, if they wanted to play mind games I could play them right back. Like a good game of chess. Emily, cocky and strong, fast to react. Perfect. As we walked down Tyson was giving max a pep talk
"We still beat the best of this branches beybladers!" he was saying
"Not quite seems you've all been used as lab rats" Kai said as we got closer "You tell them Emily".
"Its true Andy and Tony are two of our very lowest level trainee's" she said. I scoffed
"That doesn't mean shit" I said glancing at Judy. As much as this was a competitive sport I didn't like the way she was using her son.
"Looks like theres hope for you yet" Kai said to me
"Wonderful" I said sarcasticly, I didn't need his aproval, not now not ever cause I was gonna take him down one day.
"Thanks to your egger little demonstration we've analized the skill level of your entire team and all it took was two of our newest members into making you show us what we wanted to see good job guys" she said to her trainee's. I stepped forward
"Thats where your wrong lady" I said. Emily stepped forward
"Check your attitude you guys were beat!" she said. I shook my head smiling
"Me and Kai didn't fall for it" I said with a shrug, even though it was more him then me
"Face it, in the tournement, you just need two out of three matches to win" I said crossing my arms. Judy blinked and nodded
"She's right". I smiled and laughed
"And its not like you saw anyone's true full potential, I know my team, were good like that, if we faced your lowest level trainee's then how were you supposed to messure our 'full' potential, can your data tell me that?" Kai smirked and Tyson smiled
"Exactly!" he put and arm around my shoulder
"BUBBLE!" I yelled at him. He stepped back
"Inviting us here and learning our stratagies was dirty trick!" Ray protested. I nodded
"A dirty flawed trick" I added.
"Don't forget you guys sighned yourselves up for it". Emily reminded us
"Still didn't give you the right to analize us" I piped in again. She glared
"What did you expect? we're a ressurche facility" she retorted. I laughed
"So it gives you the right to be underhanded?" I spoke once more. She had nothing to say now. Hah.
"The main lession here was that you guys are no match for our eleit BBA team, so you'll pose no threaght to us in the American tourniment" Judy said. I glared at her
"As far as your flawed analisys went". Man if they wern't so underhanded I would have taken Emily out right off the bat
"Don't forget, I already analized one of your members in return" I said smirking "And all i have to do is colaborate with Kenny and whom ever may face her to figure it out, that is unless your too chiken to even go for it" I looked at Emily "And if you really want to be bold I'd love to be the one to take you down". Emily glared and stepped forward
"Why you little-" Judy cut her off. I smiled
"Face it bitch, I win" I said cooly. Kai was stiffling a laugh i could tell, che didn't take much to amuse him it seemed. I looked to Max because he was the one I was more concerned with. He was giving his mom disaponted sad puppy eyes.
"Face it, once again we have proved science has over come spirit" Judy said. I laughed, and hard
"A souless bunch like you wouldn't know anything about true spirit" I said. Max turned to me now
"Stop it!" He said angerly "I've had enough of your running down my mom just let it go theres nothing we can do about it now". He looked down. I went quiet. I felt bad for making things so tough on him. We went into the cafetirea and the team seemed to almost forget about the stupidity. Accept for whe Tyson made a comment. I chose to sit beside him, bad idea the boy ate like a beast
"I'm sorry your still hurt by that Tyson but the expibition match with the blade breaksers was supposed to be friendly.
"You sure didn't make that clear" I utterd slinking in my chair. I hadent touched my food. Kai glared at me
"Eat" he instructed. I rolled my eyes
"Sir captin sir!" I pulled the solider solute and ate a bite "better?" I asked smugly. Kai rolled his eyes.
"come on Koojiru" Ray coxted me
"I'm just not hungery guys" I said
"I'm not suprised with the way your boyfriend eats there" Emily said gesturing to Tyson. I jumped up
"He is sooo not my boyfriend" I said turning away from the table
"Where are you going sweety?" Tyson asked teasingly
"Going out for a smoke daaarling" I said dramatically pretending to faint "I'm feeling rathar agjitated" I said rolling my eyes "follow me and get smoke rings in your face" I walked off hearing Emily say
"Isin't she a peach". By the time I came back Judy had left with Emily.
"Losing is bad enough, but I lost infront of my mom" Max said sadly
"Aww don't worry you wern't fully prepaired for the match your mom knows that" Tyson coxted. I lay my shoulders on the back of Max's seat
"Yeah man buck up" I said smiling at him
"Hardly" Kai piped in
"Thanks captin downer" I scolded.
"Thats and excuse in this game you have to be prepaired for anything any time" I rolled my eyes
"We're not ninjas" I reminded him
"I gotta say Kai you can be a real downer" Kenny put in
"I try someone has to be the voice of reason on the team" he retorted
"Voice of reason?" Tyson explaimed slamming his hands down on the table "cut the guy some slack that match didn't count end of story!" Tyson explaimed
"he's right Max, don't listen to Kai what really counts is the tournements" I told him. Kai wasn't done talking yet though either, ugh! I wish he could just take a fucking chill pill shouldn't the tourments matter to him? not this?
"For someone who hates spicey food you can be a real hot head" Kai said
"Better then a shit head" I murrmerd glacing at Kai through slit eyes. He scoffed and turned his head
"Yo peeps its time for you to tune into my frequency, I'm gettin a real bad vibe from you dudes so listen up" Grandpa cut in, uh thank you! "its ture that match ment sqwuat but its your rebound skills that make it sweet or sour from my experiances" I smiled and ignored Tyson and his grandpa arguiing over him calling who or what ever old. I just ruffled Max's hair
"You got this" I said encouragingly as I took my seat. Max smiled at me as Tysons grandpa went on another kendo rampage show off thing
"Hey guys why don't we check out this BBA ressurche center a bit more before we leave" Tyson suggested.
"We could, according to Dizzy this is a ten level office and we've only seen the first level." Kenny piped in
"I see where this is going!" Max came in "The All Stars train here" he continued
"We could leanr THEIR secrets" Kenny said. I looked at my lap
"But didn't Ghandi say, and eye for an eye makes the whole world blind?" I murrmerd, but I was ignored
"This place is so high tech it'd be awesome!" Kenny continued "I'm in!" and yay the team cheered, accept for Kai
"Hey Kai Koojiru you guys comming?" Tyson asked. I blinked and thought
"And skip dessert?" Kai said sarcastically. I glared, no way did I want to be left alone with him, and my inner exploer was itching to go
"Kay I am so in!" I ran off with them. Which was a bad idea, I didn't think we had to SNEEK through here! Then again I should have seen it comming. As we stood benith the ceiling Tyson found his way up into it through a pannel. I sighed, wooh cramped spaces with a bunch of guys, my idea of a pretty little fun time. Or a fart fest waiting to kill me! As the team got up with Tysons help I looked at the hole in worry
"You comming?" he asked holding out his hand to me. I blushed
"Well, I, its...small...and dark..." goose bumps of excitment crawled over my skin but I was ok with pretending it was pure fear.
"We don't have much time Kooj, now or never!" I glared in deturmination and took his hand up. It was scarey to be the last and get pulled up, see my upper arms were weak. But either way i made it up. As we crawled through my stomach sank more and more, if I wasn't worried about being heard by people down below I would have been the voice of reason, something, was going to happen! As the rest of the team jumped down me and Kenny stayed up in the rafters.
"This was a bad idea!" Kenny said shivering
"Yeah no shit really? What was your first clue?" I spat. After calming down i heard Tyson call
"Come on guys the coast is clear but not for long!" I looked at Kenny
"Ok I'll help you get down ok?" I said to him. Thats when he started backing out
"Woh woh! hold!-" too late, he had already fallen on Tyson. I rolled my eyes as they stood up and lept down, climbing was a bitch but getting down was easy as pie. I checked for cameras, but didn't have much time, they were already on the move. Why did I let us do this? As we reached level three my arm hairs stood on end, something was not right.
"Guys seriously they must have cameras!" I said finally.
"Well they let us get this far" Tyson said. As we got in, we found a weird place with a beystadium in it. I looked around ignoring my team mates. I liked exploring every nook and cranny. Then I saw it. I smiled.
"Hey guys look what I found!" I called keeping my back to my team mates. As they gatherd I suprissed some laughter. When I saw all their shadows behind me I jumped and turned around
"A little spider friend!" I called with glee as Tyson and Kenny jumped back. I laughed after I set the spider down
"Oh god you should have seen your faces!" I said through laughs
"This isint funny! We should be focused on figure out more about the All Stars! Not playing with bugs!" Kenny protested
"Aracned, geeze I thought you were a nerd!" I teased. Tyson glared
"Kenny's right enough games" Tyson said. As Kenny went through what they had I looked around again. So many computers...I felt lost. Kenny started hugging the computers
"Oh come on, seriously! They're so souless!" I said
"Um excuse me!" Dizzy rang. I rolled my eyes "I saw that" she said. I jumped, I really didn't like this place! Compters were awesome, great for games and the internet but this many machines was starting to freak me out! Finally we got to level four. Which contained a huge sporting complex
"Am i dreaming?" Tyson exclaimed with a distraught face
"Hell if this is a dream DO NOT wake me!" I said running over to see more "Ok my turn to jiz guys!" I said to my team, earning a grosed out look.
"Everything in this place is jumbo sized" Ray said
"With all the high tech computers and training facilities this place is perfect!" Kenny said. I looked around, and souless I didn't add.
"We saw a lot of people on level one, but there doesn't seem to be anyone on these upper levels, I wonder why" Tyson said
"I does seem strage considering how big this place is" Kenny said
"Maybe thats why?" I added
"Tennis anyone? Soccer? Baseball? Foot Ball?" Max said I laughed
"I'd be so down for some Tennis!". We walked through another door . Thats when Dizzy stopped us
"Hold up guys, this hall way is riddled with lazer censors!" she warned. I blinked
"Maybe we should turn back then" I said.
"We made it this far no way!" Tyson exlaimed. I crept through the lazors with my team.
"Wow this place is great!" Kenny said
"Yeah I know real great!" Tyson said.
"Yo guys I think its time we got out of here, Kais probly wondering where we are" Ray piped in
"Oh like he'd care!" I spoke before Tyson could "It would be nice to have him come and help us right now though!" I looked at me team mates, Tyson was in a weird swan like possition with kenny right on his back, almost litteraly. Max was standing off to the side with his hands in the air, Ray was beside me stuck in a step position, and me, well I was stuck like a weird cat. Befitting I guess considering my heritage. Max was taking a step
"Hey guys kinda like twister right?" I tried to joke. Max was gone I looked back
"Oh shit" was all that came out of my mouth as he lunged forwards through the cencors. I closed my eyes as the wall came sliding down The sound of beeping filled my ears. Thats when i heard Kai grunt. I turned around
"Holly shit! you do give a fuck!" I said running towards him offering him my hand. Kai glared
"I never said I did, and I never said I didn't" He turned around after getting himself up
"Ass" I murrmerd as Max banged on the glass. He was unhealthy attached to his mother. Tyson tried to crack open the door, and kenny explained why it didnt work
"Hey guys, lets just go back, the way we came" I said point blank as I pointed down the hall.
"Yeah if we keep fooling around we might get trapped in here" Ray said
"We WON'T get trapped in here" Tyson protested
"Rays right its time to leave" Max said sadly
"Fine then whats the fastest way out of here?" Tyson said again. I face palmed
"YO DOUCHE NUTS! way we caaame" I said still pointing
"Oh...sorry" Max said looking down
"Shut it" I said punching his arm "I'd kill to trip alarms to say hi to my mom" I said with a weak smile. Max blinked, as if I didn't figure out why he was so sorry.
"Through them" Kai said. I turned around
"What...the fuck?" I murrmerd
"Funny intruders don't usually make it this far into the facility" The green haired guy said
"I don't care spies are spies" The taller guy said with a snap he shut off the alarm
"What you saying your that easy to figure out?" I challanged
"Excuse me?" The taller guy said. Kai stepped forward now, but said nothing, I guess this ment I was free to talk
"You heard me" I looked at them both now as I stepped closer. The green haired guy laughed
"This little girls got guts!" He said looking to my team "though I did think you were a boy at first" I laughed.
"Your eyes really do suck, more way then one" I shurgged. The green haired guy blinked at me
"As in a) you can't tell a boy from a girl, b) your so blinded by your ego you think your all that when really your bound by computers to rely on skill" I said raising an eye brow. Ok sure it didn't make much sense but I made my point!
"Who are you guys anyways?" Tyson asked. I stared them down as greeny laughed
"Who do you think we are exactly?" I tilted my head now trying to look cute, I felt like messin with them. Tall boy blushed slightly. I snickerd inside.
"You guys arent the janetors are you?" Tyson finally concluded. I face palmed again
"No, I do belive..." I looked at them "All Stars?" I raised an eye brow
"Cute and smart!" Tall boy said putting his arm around my shoulder. I grabbed his wrist and pinched the pressure point
"Hands off fly boy" I said stepping back now. As they took off their cloacks. I blinked, they were in sports gear. How strange. Hell this whole ordeal was strange, life was strange...
I came out of my semi day dream to find Ray and the football guy ready to battle. I sighed
"This isin't going to help us you know" I said
"Yeah but its our only way out" Max told me. I glared at the two All Star members now. This was unfair, if only I could have battled them however, this would give away my own beyblade technuiqe. Not gonna happen. I watched with tension as Ray got batterd around like a rag doll. I wanted to help, I wanted to take them down so badly...
"Don't even think about it" Kai was beside me now, I guess I had gripped my launcher because he was holding my arm away from where I kept it. And with that Ray was defeated, and the unbreaklible wall was broken. I gulped. Suddenly, I felt like all we had were toys compared to these guys. Pissed off we headed back with Tyson ranting away about heart and dedication over machinery. I wasn't really paying attention, I was focused more on how to prove him and us right.
Chapter end sorry it took so long and sorry if it IS long XD writers block =_= mrrr
