Two battles have already been done. Both sides have already lost one blader, Fenir defeated Ken and Davis defeated Francis. Now, only two battles of the first round remain and Ross was next with him going against Dreyar. Dreyar was in the battler's room and was getting ready.
"This is going to be so much fun. I can't wait to shred that Leviathan to pieces." Dreyar said.
"Do not underestimate your opponent." Fenir advised.
"You worry too much." Dreyar said with his wicked smirk. "There's no way I'm going to lose." Ross was in the other battler's room as he was preparing Leviathan.
"This won't be an easy battle." Ross said as he thought back to the first time he battled Dreyar. "Last time, Leviathan was covered in claw marks. I've got to do something about those claw like blades."
"You can beat him." Gotsumon said.
"There's no way you're going to lose to that wolf freak." Aquamon said.
"Thanks guys. I better get going." Ross said as he left for his battle.
"Okay! We got the stadium fixed up and we're all set for the next battle." D.J. announced as he was getting the crowd pumped up. "Let's welcome our next competitors. We've got the ruler of the seas, give it up for Ross." Everyone applauded as he stepped forward. "We also hold the mad dog, Dreyar!" Dreyar came on the ring and both were set.
"How nice to see you again." Dreyar said.
"Enough chat. I didn't come here to try and be friends with you." Ross said.
"You don't want to be buddies? That hurts my feelings." Dreyar said mocking him, but became serious. "Bring it on then." Both of them pulled out their beys and got ready.
"Looks like they want to get started." D.J. said.
"You can do this Ross. Don't lose to this guy!" Cody said as he and the others watched from the stands.
"Show this freak whose boss." Veemon said.
"3…2…1! Let it rip!" They ripped and launched their beys as they circled around.
"Get him, tear him apart Werevler!" Dreyar commanded.
"I don't think so!" Ross said. Both of their beys crashed against each other and kept trading blows.
"This is just like how things went before." Dreyar said and Werevler was able to push Leviathan away. "Once Werevler sinks his claws, there's no chance of you getting out of this without being torn up."
"Do you ever put a zip in it? I'll find a way to beat you." Ross said.
"Let me know if you come up with anything." Dreyar said. Werevler attacked again and pushed down on Leviathan as it was leaving trails in the stadium.
"Unreal! Werevler is grinding so hard against Leviathan so hard that's ripping up the stadium. Take it easy could you? We just got it fixed up." D.J. announced.
"Break free, Leviathan!" Ross shouted.
"It's no use. Once the mighty wolf has his claws on his prey, there is no escape." Dreyar said.
"If you're going with those so called claws, then I'm going with Leviathan's so called blades." Ross said. "Push hard Leviathan. Slash him around." Leviathan put in some effort and was able to keep them from moving any further until they separated.
"I'm not done yet." Dreyar said. "Now rise and howl!" The werewolf was released as it howled in the air.
"Looks like he's about to go all out." Ken said.
"Get ready Ross. His special move is coming." Gotsumon said.
"Special move! Crescent Werewolf Claw!" Dreyar said. The bey formed the crescent shaped attack, but put even more power into it. It caused the two beys to fly out of the ring.
"No way!" Ross said, astounded that even happened. Werevler pushed Leviathan into the wall and grind against it as they went a full circle around with Werevler still giving off the crescent shaped energy.
"This is unbelievable. Werevler has Leviathan pinned against the wall and continues to attack." D.J. said. "I'm not sure if this qualifies as a stadium out." The werewolf had the beast of the sea between its claws and the concrete as the beys continued to go.
"It looks like I win again." Dreyar said.
"Not happening." Ross said as he got his attention. "There's no way I'm going to lose to you! Show him, Leviathan, why we rule over the oceans!" Leviathan pulled in its power and was able to push against the wall and both ended up back in the stadium.
"How the heck did he do that?!" Dreyar said and Ross was giving off a blue colored energy with Leviathan.
"I think now I'm starting to get it. You use those claws to graze the stadium and the wall." Ross said. "You have a set on your energy ring, fusion wheel, and spin track. That's kind of like Leviathan since he has different sized blades on every part of him."
"What's your point?" Dreyar said.
"My point is that I now know how to handle it." Ross said. Leviathan and hit the right spot that broke off a few claws off Werevler.
"My lovely claws!" Dreyar said.
"This is where the battle ends." Ross said. "Special move! Leviathan! Delta Sword Slash!" Leviathan was surrounded in energy rings with the king of sea serpents attacked the werewolf. The two beys grind hard, but without the claws, Werevler didn't stand a chance and was sent out of the ring.
"That's it! Ross is the winner and our third semi-finalists." D.J. announced and everyone cheered for him.
"You can't be serious. Did I actually lose?" Dreyar said. He couldn't take it. He has finding it hard to believe so much that he actually fainted.
"Way to win it Ross!" Davis cheered, but saw Ross didn't look happy. He glared at the booth Yu was in. His look said it all and it was saying 'it isn't over, I'll make you pay for all the horrible things you've done.'
"That's a digidestined for you. All talk and all action." Yu said and looked behind him. "Now, it's your turn. I want you to show them how truly terrifying you can be." The person he was talking to was Malina and she had a threatening look on her face.
"Nice job, Ross." Ken said. After the battle, Ross went up to the stands and met up with the others.
"Thanks guys, but let's not celebrate too soon. Don't forget whose battling next and that's what I'm most worried about." Ross said, referring to Cody's battle against Malina. Both of them already came up to the battlefield.
"We're starting our final battle of the first round. We've got the boy who is as tough as he is young, Cody! I give an intro, but this girl is a mystery, Malina!" D.J. announced.
"This is it. If I can beat her, I'll free T.K. and Kari." Cody said. "Hopefully all the power that was stolen will be returned as well."
"Let's get this over with." Malina said as they both pulled out their beys and launchers.
"3…2…1! Let it rip!" Both of them launched their beys and Cody was being cautious by keeping his distance from Reapix.
"Aries isn't strong with attack power. I'll have to wait for her to make a move and counter attack." Cody said.
"I'm not going to waste time on a pest like you." Malina said. Reapix unleashed a dark purple form of the grim reaper and Cody was already terrified with fear and couldn't move.
"This power, it's so dark." Cody said.
"You can't win against me." Malina said. "You're too young and too inefficient. Enjoy your trip into a place of infinite darkness. You were a fool to enter here in the first place."
"Too young, too inefficient, a fool?" Cody whispered to himself. The reaper raised its scythe and send out gale force winds mixed with dark energy and Cody didn't even bother to fight back. Even the people in the stands ran away.
"Cody!" Davis shouted as they ran over, but there was no sign of him. "Cody, where are you?!" He spotted Aries and saw it was covered in cracks. "Oh no."
"That's right." They saw Malina and her bey was still spinning, while showing dark energy, and making her the automatic winner. "He's mine now. Only two battles left to go until I have ultimate power. When that happens, I shall make this world bend to my knees."
