Chapter 10: The Claws of horror
Gingka starred off into space. He had Star Cross Pegasus in his hand and was thinking about his battle with Brock.
Gingka readied Pegasus on his launcher and prepared himself.
"Let it rip!" cried Gingka.
As Pegasus was launched Gingka stumbled back and Pegasus had a blue stream flowing behind it.
"Amazing!" exclaimed Gingka as he watched Pegasus zoom around the stadium at high speeds.
Madoka, Kenta, Benkei, Tsubasa and Yu were watching from a hill.
Madoka was examining Star Cross Pegasus on her computer.
"Star Cross Pegasus," said Madoka. "A powerful attack type bey. But the Star Cross fusion wheel is nothing I have ever seen before. It can generate a tone of attack power and its spin track and performance tip is good for speed and stamina."
Gingka called back Pegasus and walked up to everyone.
"Okay guys," said Gingka. "I need to tell you something."
"What is it?" asked Tsubasa.
"Well," started Gingka but stopped when he saw two boys walking towards them.
They each wore brown pants and black shirts. They both wore red jumpers that had random black marks all over it. They had black hair that covered their eyes.
"Tsubasa," said the twin on the right.
"Yu," said the twin on the left.
"We challenge you to a battle," said both twins.
"And you are?" asked Tsubasa.
"I am Ben Claw," said the twin on the right.
"And I am Ken Claw," said the twin on the left.
"We are the Claw Twins," said the twins. "And we want a battle."
"Okay," replied Tsubasa as he and Yu stood up and walked over the the arena.
The four readied their beys.
"3,2,1! Let it rip!"
The four beys spun into the arena.
"Go now Eagle!" cried Tsubasa.
Eagle charged forward but the two opposing beys charged also and smashed into Eagle, sending it back.
"A combo attack," said Tsubasa.
"Then we'll use one of our own," suggested Yu. "Libra! Sonic Buster!"
Libra vibrated and the arena slowly tuned to sand.
"Because Eagle can glide over the sand, it doesn't fall prey to the attack," said Benkei. "Smart move."
The two opposing beys however were unaffected.
"Charge!" cried the Twins.
The two beys charged forward, completely unaffected by the sand and smashed into Libra.
"What?" cried both Tsubasa and Yu.
Madoka opened her laptop ad began to examine the twins beys.
"A Terror Claw and a Fear Claw," said Madoka. "Both use the claw energy ring and both fusion wheels are sharp and claw like. Their beys both use a unique spin track that has spikes on it, scraping away the sand so it doesn't effect the bey. And their performance tips are good for balance and stamina."
"You really think we wouldn't of prepared for this battle," spat Ben.
"We know all your moves," added Ken.
"This isn't over!" declared Tsubasa.
"That's right!" added Yu. "Go Libra!"
Libra and Eagle charged forward together and headed towards the Claw beys.
"Pathetic," spat the twins.
"Special move!" cried Ben. "Claw of Terror!"
"Special move!" cried Ken. "Claw of Fear!"
Two golden claws came out of Terror Claw and two silver claws came out of Fear Claw. The two sets of claws then slashed at the opposing beys, sending them flying.
"Nice try!" cried Tsubasa. "But that isn't going to work! Eagle! Metal Wing Smash!"
Eagle spread it's wings and charged down towards the claw beys.
"Special move!" cried Ben. "Terror Slash Uppercut!"
"Special move!" cried Ken. "Fear Slash Uppercut!"
The pairs of claws appeared again and smashed into Eagle, sending it flying again.
"Try again!" cried Tsubasa. "Eagle! Diving Crush!"
Eagle charged down with more then before and was ready to knock the two beys out.
"Special move!" cried Ben. "Terror Slash Uppercut!"
"Special move!" cried Ken. "Fear Slash Uppercut!"
The pairs of claws appeared again but Tsubasa smiled.
"You really think that will work again?" laughed Yu.
"Go Eagle!" cried Tsubasa.
"Special move!" cried the Twins. "Claw Slash Uppercut Supreme!"
"What!" cried Tsubasa.
"Another combo attack!" cried Yu.
The two claws circled each other as they moved upwards to attack Eagle. By the time they had met Eagle the claws had fused together.
"Go now!" cried the Twins.
The fused claws slashed at eagle and sent it plummeting into the stadium.
Tsubasa and Yu watched as eagle fell helplessly to the stadium and wobbled.
"This isn't good," said Tsubasa.
"Attack time," spat Ben. "Special move! Terror Ascension!"
"Special move!" cried Ken. "Fear Ascension!"
The sets of claws appeared again and were charging forward towards Eagle.
"I refuse to lose!" cried Tsubasa. "Eagle! Shining Tornado Buster!"
Eagle charged forward, surrounded by a shining tornado and was ready to battle.
"Not so fast," spat Ben.
"Special move!" cried the Twins. "Claw Ascension Supreme!"
The claws circled each other and fused together to create the ultimate claws.
As eagle clashed with the Claw beys, a huge explosion occurred.
"Destroy Eagle!" cried the Twins.
"Blow them away!" cried Tsubasa.
There was another explosion and when the dust cleared, Eagle was out.
"No," said Tsubasa as he fell to his knees.
"We rule!" cheered the Twins as they high fived each other.
"Libra!" cried Yu. "Sonic Wave!"
A green wave of energy suddenly smashed into Claw beys.
The beys started to wobble and Yu smiled.
"Oh right," said Ken. "We still have to beat Yu."
"Piece of cake," added Ben.
"Oh really," replied Yu. "Libra! Inferno Blast!"
A green energy wave shot out of Libra and into the sky.
"Let's see you counter this!" cheered Yu.
"No problem!" cried the Twins. "Special move!" Claw Buster Supreme!"
The two sets of claws appeared and merged into a pair of platinum claws.
"Time to lose!" spat the Twins.
The platinum claws surged forward and smashed into Libra's attack, canceling it out.
"Now way," said Tsubasa.
However, Yu didn't seem phased at all.
"Not bad," said Yu. "But I can do so much better."
"What?" spat the Twins.
"Libra!" cried Yu. "Sonic Storm!"
Libra started to vibrate and green lighting was pulsing out of Libra.
"Go now Libra!" cried Yu.
Flashes of the lighting started to smash into the Claw blades, sending them all over the stadium.
"And now," cheered Yu. "Sonic Tornado!"
Libra started sending out sonic waves upwards that soon formed a tornado.
"And attack!" cried Yu.
Libra stopped producing sonic waves and the tornado collapsed. The sonic waves were sent everywhere and smashed into the Claw beys, knocking them out.
"No way," said the Twins as they picked up their beys. "Next time will be different."
The two then ran off.
"That was incredible Yu," said Kenta as every ran up to him and were asking about his new moves.
Tsubasa however, kept his distance.
I know why they were here, thought Tsubasa. They were testing their powers for the World Battle Bladers Tournament that starts tomorrow. In each continent, one blader is the winner and then the winners from each continent face off. Those twins didn't even suspect that I allowed them to defeat me. Yu isn't the only one with new abilities. For now, I'll pretend I don't know anything about Battle Bladers and keep Eagle's powers a secret.
Madoka heard a beep and reached into her pocket and took out her phone. She read a text and placed the phone back into her pocket.
"Hey guys," said Madoka. "Ryo wants to see us."
Once the gang arrived at Ryo's office they headed inside.
"Hello," said Ryo. "It's me the immortal Phoenix."
"Please stop that," said Hikaru nicely.
"Okay then," said Ryo. "There's been a new bey tournament established."
"Really?" said Gingka happily.
"That's right," added Hikaru. "The Battle Bladers World Championship."
"Starting tomorrow bladers will battle within their continents and the winner for each continent will then battle to decide the best blader in the world," said Ryo.
"Awesome!" cheered Gingka, Yu, Kenta and Benkei.
"The tournament starts tomorrow," said Hikaru. "As a competitor, you must be the last person in your continent to not have lost a single battle during the tournament times. Each day there will be a break time were people can battle for fun and it won't count for the tournament. You will also face opponents form other countries in Asia, over 55 including Indonesia, India and Afghanistan."
"Over 55 countries," said Gingka. "That's a lot of bladers."
"In order to solve this problem, there will be winner from each country. The winner will then participate in a mini tournament with the other country winners. The winner is then crowned as the top blader in Asia. All the other continents will do the same. There will champion from Europe, Oceania, Africa, North America, South America, and Antarctica. However, because of the low amount of bladers and there being only 4 countries in Antarctica, they will hold their mini tournament straight away with all bladers in the continent in it. There will be many tournaments throughout countries. If you lose a battle you are out of the tournament," said Hikaru.
"And if any of you manage to become the best in Japan and make it to the Asia finals," added Ryo. "Be careful. I've heard that there are some new upcoming bladers all over the world now. Some are said to be stronger then the bladers from the World Championship. If any of you mange to make it to the grand finals, be cautious and don't underestimate your opponents."
"Exactly," added Hikaru. "Although the bladers in Antarctica are small in population, they train in some of the harshest conditions and are supposedly very strong. Oceania is also said to have a special blader-training program and there is already a favourite to be the top blader in Australia and then in Oceania."
"In other words," said Benkei. "It's a long way and a tough way to the top."
"It's time to battle!" cheered Gingka. "Let's practice!"
To be continued: The Battle Bladers World Championship begins! Can Gingka and the gang fight their way to the top, or are they destined to lose.
