Chapter 10
In the morning, Daniil was not nice, to anyone. Which was not unusual. Still the four children stayed quiet, holding their fits of laughter in until all the older boys left. When Akim, Lev, Varlam and Daniil went off for - well where ever they went, that made them exhausted when they returned.
The four children burst into laughter upon hearing Daniil's reaction and his new back problem because of that one night. It was one of those moments when they laughed together, all of them happy. There were not many times that would happen and each of them knew that fairly well.
This day was different, not only had the older boys went out - what appeared later than normal, but another man had came and asked for all of the children to line up. Kai had stayed on his bed and glared before he was dragged to where the others were standing.
He had groaned when the man released his grip on his neck, as Kai tried to sooth the agonising pain that was creeping around the sore flesh.
Tala's first thought was that they were going to get into trouble, but no they didn't. Bryan thought they were going to go and get more food but no they didn't.
Whatever the reason was the man lead the four out of the room. The walls and floor were still a shiny metal. Tala didn't look down at his feet pondering over things this time. His eyes darted around the place hoping that they would find out where they were going.
There small footsteps made a horrible din on the metal floors as occasionally one of them would drag their feet along, and make a loud screeching noise. The man had bellowed not to do that or they would all be punished. So they all stopped and walked properly. But kept the small smiles on their faces. They all knew that adults could get away with a lot of things, and it was hard for them to even get a tiny bit of... Revenge or justice.
It didn't take long till they were in another room, filled with machines and other strange wires attached to even more machines. The man left as soon as the children had stood still. Tala looked at a very large tube like structure, he'd never seen anything like it. It was huge!
Bryan was looking around the room hoping to find an adult, or someone that would explain where this place was and why they were here. Kai glanced at Spencer, who seemed familiar with the room. Kai had seen the blonde boy tense and look at the floor as if he did not want to look anywhere.
Spencer had been here the longest in the group, so it was possible that he had been in this room before. Before Kai could even ask, a voice that was familiar came out of no where. The boys looked over to the man sitting on a chair, looking rather comfortable. He had purple hair. Tala frowned, and who was this?
Kai and Spencer knew who it was - it was Boris. Voltaire's right hand man.
"I guess you're wondering why you all are here?" He raised an eyebrow, and looked at the children. So these where the ones he had been told to use? They looked quite pathetic. Even for children.
Tala was the only one that nodded, Bryan looked away from the man. Kai glared and Spencer was too scared because of the stories he had heard to look anywhere else but the floor.
"Remember that lovely meal that I sent for you all yesterday?" Boris looked at the small redheaded boy again, it seemed he was the leader. He would make an okay captain if the others followed willingly.
Willingly or not, they all would follow his orders.
"Well, it had something inside it." Kai frowned, he knew that meat didn't taste good! Just like he said he would - he blamed Tala. For whatever reason. Boris had a very smug look on his face. He stood up and strode over to the small boys that stood quietly in a line in front of him.
"You have been told that you will become powerful and that you will beyblade for me." This time Bryan and Tala nodded while Spencer looked Boris in the eye. Kai still glared madly at the man.
"Well, that meal had something that will make you all stronger. I'm sure that's okay." Kai was the only one glaring, but everyone else nodded. Boris looked at Kai - so this one would be the problem. Voltaire's grandson would be the little rebel among this group. Boris just smiled as he gazed along them all.
"What was in it?" Tala tilted his head and blinked, he hadn't tasted the difference. Or was this man lying?
"A chemical." Called rat poison Kai thought he really didn't like Boris, only because he had seen him laughing after the incident at his school. This man was not as nice as the cover he was placing over the other boys.
Spencer knew just as well that this man was - evil. There was a suspicious aura that surrounded him, there was nothing he liked about the man. "What was the chemical..." Tala muttered unsure if he could say such a long word as 'chemical.'
"It is to make you... All somewhat more compatible, when you get your bitbeasts." Boris smiled, by compatible he meant be able to use them. Know how to use them, there had been much success in teaching the children and teenager theory and strategies first. No, they would use this new technology to make them understand quicker, and would be able to keep the information. As soon as these kids knew how to launch then the real training would begin.
And never stop until the championships occurred. Though these boys would be held, for future years.
The words that Bryan and a few others did not understand was the term 'bitbeast.' What on earth where they?
"Em...What...are...bitbeasts?" Bryan looked quite timid as he glanced from the floor to the blazing red eyes of the man. He felt uncomfortable and out of place speaking.
"I'm glad you asked..." Boris had no care for names, he would learn them only if he needed to - punish them for not doing as he asked. Boris went to a machine, one of the large ones that Tala was sure, could blow up the world.
There was a loud buzzing sound in the room. One that made each boy look in different directions, though when part of the floor began to open up, they stared. As a very large dish began to appear in the middle of the room. Just like the one they had seen a few days ago.
Kai took the most interest as he tried to look around for the black beyblade he had seen. The large metal arms came, then stopped, hovering over the large dish. Before any of the children had any other questions formed in their minds the arms launched two beyblades.
One remained where it landed, in the centre of the dish. Kai blinked. It was the black blade from two days ago. He smiled at the blade, and it did not go unnoticed by Boris or any other of the children.
Tala felt uneasy, he had seen the reaction that Kai made because of that one beyblade and it was not a good reaction. It was like the boy was obsessed with the blade...
The other blade came and started pounding into the jet black beyblade. Though neither of them flew out of the ring.
"This is a bitbeast." Boris smiled and watched the children's faces as Black Dranzer was summoned. A phoenix of black feathers, and a large presence, shrieked at the other blade. Feeling much stronger than usual. With graceful moves it easily destroyed the other blade.
Tala and Bryan came closer together, scared over the dark and scary looking bitbeast. Spencer had stared at it through wide eyes. He had never seen anything like it before - nothing so haunting.
Kai was slightly scared, though that was overcome with the desire of wanting to use the bitbeast. Even more so he looked at the spinning blade and decided to go in for a closer look. He plodded up to the dish and crouched down, gazing at the bitbeast. Boris was more than happy - so Kai was now not a problem. Though not just anyone could use it, even if he was Voltaire grandson.
"Can I have it?" Kai stood up and turned, looking straight at Boris. He was no longer glaring, as if all the hate and dislike had been washed away from his system upon looking at the magnificent beast.
"No." Boris said simply, though then a thought came to his mind. Since Black Dranzer had been created because they had separated the original Dranzer. Which was now very weak compared to it's counterpart. Kai would have Dranzer, he would gain Black Dranzer if he could work and train hard enough.
The glare came back, not liking the fact he was not allowed something. Usually he gained anything he wanted. Except friends of course, social skills. Not his thing.
Kai stayed there. Watching his new fascination be taken away by the horrible metal arms. It stopped spinning and Kai frowned deeply. Once the whole dish and arms were gone, Boris decided to get on with what he was suppose to have been doing. It wouldn't hurt the children. Not much. Okay, a lot.
The whole program was to make them... Stronger. Emotionless, of course it would take a long time for that to happen, since they probably would just cry. Since happiness was a strong emotion - Boris thought he would start with that.
"Stand inside the capsule." Boris instructed, if the kids didn't listen to them. They would get punished. When it came to training they would get it harder and for longer. It was always a good idea. It always made the teenagers loyal and obedient, it would work for these children too.
The four children stood about a metre apart. Two rows and two columns. Tala and Bryan stood behind Kai and Spencer. They did not understand what was happening or why they were being - locked inside a large capsule. What was Boris planning.
Without warning thin metal arms with unreal strength held each boy steady and still. No matter how much they struggled they stayed completely still. As the arms grip tightened the children got the impression they were going to cut their limbs off. They would certainly leave a bruise.
Though that was not all Boris was planning, now to get on with the experiment. Of course this had never been done before! But only four children would be lost, and Kai wasn't exactly the best grandson material.
Four wires hung down, slowly unwinding themselves from their resting places. At the end were large needles. Thin but long. If Boris wanted to he could have placed them through the bodies of the small boys.
Tala hated needles - so much he began to bubble and whine about how he hated them. He could remember having a jag at the doctors. The boy would have shivered if he was not immobile.
Bryan as well as Kai began to feel more than nervous and too tried to stop themselves from whining or wailing.
"Now this will only hurt for... Well it will hurt." Boris smiled and pushed a few buttons. The metal arm, twitched and moved coming to life and moved to the back of the boys necks.
There was a lot of screaming children within the first few hours.
The chemical that Boris placed within the boys bodies made it worse for them not only could they not moved, but all they could feel was what the needle was doing. The chemical just seemed like something to torture the children with. But Boris just began to enter a few commands.
Before long the needles in their necks made the boys move, slowly at first. Anyone that watched them and played beyblade would know that was the basic launching position. Of course the children had been screaming for the needle to be pulled out and for them to go back to their room. But no Boris wanted them to know that this was what he wanted them to do.
So the boys were shown, by the needle on their nerves where they were to move when they were launching. Of course they all looked like shadow puppets to one another. Doing the same thing. Over and over again, even if they willed themselves not to do anything.
No launcher was on hand, just them doing the actions was all that mattered. Boris wondered if these boys could master launching then it was a good start - they weren't even ten yet.
Author's Note: Okay… Evil Boris. Had to get back onto the actually story - can't just keep doing cute moments! Even as much as I would love to! Well thanks for reading, review yeah?
