Me: Yay! Here's drabble 10! :D
Kiyoko: T-this one is a bit d-different from y-your usual style.
Me: That's what I think...
Leodasdragon - Lol, that's my second favorite holiday. I like Christmas the most, because it means FREE STUFF! XD
Hanako: Psh, of course. I was so close, too!
Miu: Gemstone Gal doesn't own Metal Fight Beyblade!
Yuki: ...Enjoy.
Drabble 10 - Manhunt
The group was bored, and everyone was at the Hagane's mansion.
"Let's play manhunt! It's dark enough, and we have a whole forest in our backyard!" Gingka said.
"Who's going to be it?" Hikaru asked. "And what are the rules?"
"Me!" Blaze said. "I'll give you guys to 30 to hide or run away."
"The rules are you must stay in the forest, no going above or under," Miu explained, and as she said the first rule she looked at Yuki, "Everyone will have an earpiece, which will say if someone is out, and it will work for the ones who are it. There will be a thirty minute time limit for the it to get as many people as he/she can. If there is at least one person left, they win. If no one is left, then Blaze wins"
"Let's get started!" Gingka said, as he started running outside. Everyone followed him.
"1...2...3...4...5...6...7...8...9...10..." Blaze continued to count until he reached 30. He turned around, but stopped halfway and turned back. Gingka was standing there, grinning.
"Psh, if you wanted me to tag you, you could've said so in the beginning." Blaze said, as he poked Gingka.
Gingka Hagane: Out
A voice went through everyones' ear.
"That's creepy." Gingka said.
"Agreed." Blaze replied. "Anyways, let's split up!" The two boys ran into the forest.
28 minutes, 26 seconds
Madokas' breathing stopped when she heard Gingka talking not far from where she was hiding. She was hiding in between to bushes.
"I got nothing. You?" Gingka said into his earpiece. A pause. "Got it." Gingka looked around. Madoka squeezed her eyes shut, hoping he wouldn't find her. She soon felt a tap on her shoulder.
"Gotcha." Gingka said.
Madoka Amano: Out
"What is with that voice?!" Madoka exclaimed. "It's so...weird!"
"It is. Anyways, let's split up." Gingka said.
"Got it." Madoka said.
27 minutes, 46 seconds
Kyoya sighed. He had not managed to shake Benkei off. He was hiding in a tree, while Benkei was in a bush...well, more like crushing it.
"Psh, I've still got nothing." A voice said. It definitely wasn't Madokas', or Gingkas'. Which meant it had to belong to Blaze. "You got lucky, because you got Madoka." Kyoya jumped off of the tree and started running. Luckily, Benkei didn't notice. As Kyoya kept running, another whisper went through everyones' ear.
Benkei Hanawa: Out
26 minutes, 31 seconds
Hanako wasn't hiding. She walked all around the forest, trying to avoid being caught. Her pink eyes looked around, scanning every inch of the forest. What she was trying to do was memorize the forest, so if she needed to run, she'd know where to go. Her mind was alert, as she did not want to be the fourth out. Or out at all, really. Suddenly, arms went around her neck and a hand went over her neck. She heard a voice.
"Nope, you guys get anything?" A voice said. It was feminine, and the only girl out was Madoka. Hanako heard footsteps. As soon as the footsteps were no longer heard, Hanako was released.
"What was that for?" She hissed. She turned around and saw Dashan.
"You would've gotten caught." Dashan replied, whispering. "You should stay here, it's easier not to get caught because we're so close to the edge of the forest."
"Fine." Hanako whispered.
25 minutes, 50 seconds
Angel and Kiyoko were hiding behind the shed in the forest.
"If I were Angel, where would I hide..?" The two heard a voice. It was Blazes'. "I know! Behind the shed!" The two of them crouched down and closed their eyes. Each of them felt a pat on their heads.
Winter Lune: Out
Kiyoko Tategami: Out
"You two stay together and look." Blaze said as he ran off.
24 minutes, 19 seconds
Yuki walked around as she chewed gum and looked for something. She looked around, until she spotted it.
'Now let's see if anyone knows about this.' Yuki thought, while smirking. What she had found was a fake-but realistic, tree that was in the middle of the forest. It was Yukis' secret base in the forest, though it was a bit small. Yuki walked inside the tree and turned on the light. She walked to the mini fridge inside and took a soda out. She sat down on her couch and waited for the time to go by.
22 minutes, 56 seconds
Yu, Tsubasa and Miu were all hiding in the same place. The center of the forest, where there was a beyblade stadium, and the best place to hide was near it, because it had benches around it, most likely there incase they needed a break from blading. There was four of them, and the three of them were each underneath one.
"This is stupid." Yu said.
"Shhh!" Miu shushed the younger boy. "We don't want to get caught."
20 minutes, 0 seconds
Another whisper went through everyones' ear.
Ten minutes have passed. Twenty remaining.
19 minutes, 48 seconds
'Good...I've gone for more than ten minutes.' Chao Xin thought. 'But now I'm going to jinx it.' He jumped from tree to tree, making sure he was safe. Soon, he jumped off a tree, only to be poked on his back.
Chao Xin: Out
He turned around and saw Kiyoko sticking her tongue out in a playful manner, with Angel behind her, giggling quietly.
17 minutes, 9 seconds
Masamune was running as fast as he could, with Gingka on his tail. He looked behind and saw Gingka almost getting him.
"GOTCHA!" Gingka shouted, as he touched Masamune's back.
Masamune Kadoya: Out
"Darn it!" Masamune said.
15 minutes, 0 seconds
The game is halfway done.
The voice whispered.
14 minutes, 38 seconds
Hikaru looked around and sighed. She had lasted a good amount of time already. She was sitting on a tree branch. Then she felt a hand on her shoulder.
Hikaru Hasama: Out
When Hikaru looked at who had gotten her out, she saw the grinning face of her friend, Madoka.
"Hikaru, let's go kick some butt!" Madoka said.
"You got it." Hikaru replied.
12 minutes, 12 seconds
Yu Tendo: Out
Tsubasa Otori: Out
Miu Hassan: Out
The three of them had gotten out when Angel and brought Kiyoko and Chao Xin to the beyblade stadium.
11 minutes, 37 seconds
Nile looked around. He was hiding near a stream that ran through the forest.
"You're hiding here?" Someone asked. Nile looked up and saw Kyoya.
"Yeah." Nile answered. "It's a good hiding spot for now."
"Exactly why I'm here." Kyoya said. However, the two of them were wrong.
Nile: Out
Kyoya Tategami: Out
Blaze grinned, as he had just gotten the two of them out.
"So, who's still in?" Nile asked.
"Dashan, Hanako, Yuki, Kenta and that's all." Blaze said.
"Well, let's get cracking!" Kyoya said, as he ran off.
10 minutes, 0 seconds
Twenty minutes have passed. Only ten remain.
The voice whispered.
9 minutes, 54 seconds
'Good, I've gotten past the ten minutes left mark.' Kenta thought. Of course, that was when he jinxed himself.
Kenta Yumiya: Out
Kenta saw Gingka next to him.
"Aww, I'm out!" Kenta said.
7 minutes, 11 seconds
"Where are they?!" Masamune said. The 'its' had gathered.
"There's only three of them, so this will hopefully be easy." Blaze said. "Except for Yuki."
"Yuki's going to be the hardest to find." Yu said.
"You think?" Miu asked sarcastically.
"Well, look for Hanako and Dashan first." Hikaru said.
5 minutes, 0 seconds
Five minutes left.
Everyone was alert at the message.
4 minutes, 30 seconds
"Is see them!" Gingka shouted, as he pointed to Dashan and Hanako, who were now running away from them.
"Gotcha!" Yu and Masamune said at the same time, Yu having tagged Hanako and Masamune had gotten Dashan.
Hanako Carpenter: Out
Dashan Wang: Out
Galaxy Hagane is the last one.
"Everyone, split up and look for her!" Blaze shouted, as he and Gingka ran off in opposite directions.
1 minute, 17 seconds
"Where would she hide?" Hanako thought out loud, frantically searching for her friend.
"THE FAKE TREE!" Gingka, Blaze and Angel shouted at the same time, and they were heard through the earpiece. "Go to the center of the forest!"
14 seconds
"She's in the fake tree, and everyone's here, let's go!" Gingka said, as he ran to a tree which was very realistic looking.
10...9...
He opened it up.
8...7...
Yuki smirked. She ran out of the tree.
6...5...
Everyone tried to tag her at the same time.
4...3...2...
Gingka missed her by a centimeter.
1... At the same time as the '1', Hanako had touched Yuki's arm.
The winner is...Galaxy Hagane.
"Damn! So close!" Blaze said.
"That was fun! Can we play again?" Yu asked. "But this time, with Yuki being it!"
"Sure." Yuki said.
Me: :D So, do you guys like it? I'm hoping to get another one up later today, since it's the last day of winter vacation for me. I go back to school tomorrow. :/
Hanako: I WAS SO CLOSE TO WINNING! Darn it! At least the next drabble is mine! :D
FUN FACT: This chapter/drabble was really fun to type! :3
QUESTION OF THE CHAPTER: What was your favorite part of the game?
Miu: This was an awesome chapter. XD
Yuki: We'll see you next drabble.
Kiyoko: Bye~
