Chapter 12: Survival of the fittest
Previously: The Battle Bladers World Championship has begun. Bladers all over the world will fight to become the best in the country, the continent, and the world.
In his first battle, Gingka discovers how powerful Star Cross Pegasus is and unleashes a special move: Star Cross Driver.
Meanwhile, Kenta faces off against Sora and his bey Cyber Pegasus. Sora uses smart tactics to put Kenta on the brink of defeat and was about to defeat Kenta when a roof collapsed onto the battle. The battle ends without an outcome and Sora says he will challenge Kenta again later.
"Libra!" cried Yu happily. "Inferno Blast!"
A green stream of light shot out of Libra and into the air. The beys in the arena were dragged into the light and knocked out.
"Oh yeah!" cheered Yu. "I rule. I am the best. I am the best."
Yu continued to chant as he walked away from the arena.
"Okay," said Yu to himself as he walked through the streets. "I've defeated 10 bladers so far. I think that's enough of a warm up. So, now I need to find some strong bladers to fight."
"If it's a strong blader you want then it's a strong blader you got little crab," said the figure standing on top of the building above Yu.
The figure jumped down and landed in a crab like crouch. He was squatting and had his hands up with the piece sign.
"Hello Crab," smiled Tetsuya.
"Not this guy again," mumbled Yu.
"Crabba-what!" cried Tetsuya. "Don't you like having me around?"
Tetsuya put on sad face and began to tear up.
"Yes I don't like you," replied Yu.
"Crabba-what!" snapped Tetsuya yet again. "Now that's just plain un-crabby!"
"Look, just go away," said Yu. "I'm looking for strong bladers."
"I'm a strong crab!" whined Tetsuya.
"Really?" asked Yu who rolled his eyes.
"I've been through a special training program to make me a crab-nificent blader!" declared Tetsuya.
"Fine," mumbled Yu.
"Let's go crab!" cried Tetsuya as he readied his bey.
"This shouldn't take long," said Yu as he readied his bey.
"3,2,1! Let it rip!"
Flame Libra and Dark Gasher spun into the arena.
"Oh by the way crab," spat Tetsuya.
"What?" replied Yu.
"This is my home made arena!" declared Tetsuya proudly. "And because this is mine, you play by my house rules!"
Tetsuya brought out a small remote control with a red button on it.
"Crabby," said Tetsuya before pressing the button.
Suddenly the 2 beys began to move strangely and were wobbling.
"What did you do?" asked Yu.
"I craba-fied the arena," replied Tetsuya proudly. "Some special magnets in the arena suited to affect fusion wheels are hidden and are making out beys go crabby!"
"But that goes for you too," replied Yu.
"I wouldn't bet your crabs on it," replied Tetsuya.
"Huh?" replied Yu.
"Special move!" cried Tetsuya. "Spin Track Change!"
Gasher's spin track suddenly grew taller and the bey was no longer spinning crazily.
"What happened?" questioned Yu.
"The magnets only have affect on certain levels in the arena," replied Tetsuya laughing. "Take that crab!"
"Why you!" cried Yu angrily. "Libra! Sonic Buster!"
"No so fast crab!" cried Tetsuya. He hit the red button again and now Libra shook harder.
"No fair!" whined Yu. "Libra can't vibrate properly!"
"And because of that, my Gasher is top crab today," declared Tetsuya.
Gasher spun towards the crazy Libra and began to attack.
"Libra run!" cried Yu. Libra zigzagged away from Gasher and managed to move right to the edge of the arena.
"At this height Libra is unaffected," said Yu happily.
"Perhaps crab," spat Tetsuya. "But it can't attack from that angle and if you stay there my Gasher will last longer then you because Libra has taken damage. Let's see you get out of this one crab."
"You cheat," spat Yu.
"Crabby," replied Tetsuya.
He's right thought Yu. Unless?
"Go Libra!" cheered Yu.
Libra began to race around the edge of the arena. Soon it was going so fast that all you could see was a green and yellow blur.
"What in the crab are you doing?" asked Tetsuya.
"I'm about to win!" declared Yu.
"Crabba-what!" cried Tetsuya.
"Special move!" cried Yu. "Libra! Sonic smasher!"
Libra lit up and crackled with green energy. Libra then spun away from the edge, and flew through the air and smashed into the heightened Gasher.
There was an explosion and when the dust cleared Dark Gasher has been smashed into the pavement and Libra was spinning fiercely.
Libra returned to Yu's hand and said, "what do you think of me now? Crab!"
"Crabby," mumbled Tetsuya as he swopped up his bey and ran off.
"Nice job," said a voice.
"Huh?" said Yu as he looked around to see someone entering a warehouse.
Yu entered to see an arena and Tsubasa standing on one side of it, the shadows covering half of his face and body.
"Hello Yu," said Tsubasa as he stood in the shadows.
"Tsubasa?" said Yu. "What's going on?"
"I have led you here to battle of course," replied Tsubasa. "Our destined battle."
"Tsubasa, are you okay?" asked Yu.
"I'm fine Yu," replied Tsubasa who smiled and chuckled. "Let's begin."
Yu stepped up to the arena and he and Tsubasa readied their beys.
"3,2,1! Let it rip!"
Eagle and Libra spun into battle and smashed into each other.
"I'm not going to lose this time like I did last time!" declared Yu.
"We'll see," replied Tsubasa.
"Libra!" cried Yu. "Special move! Sonic Wave!"
Libra began to vibrate and some waves of energy that shot towards Eagle.
Tsubasa smirked and said, "Eagle! Counter Stance!"
Eagle gracefully dodged the attacks and then attacked Libra.
"Not bad," said Yu. "But let's see you dodge this! Libra! Sonic Tornado!"
Libra began to produce sonic waves that built a tornado. And when Libra stopped, they collapsed onto the field and smashed around the stadium.
"Eagle!" cried Tsubasa. "Energy Mirage!"
Eagle glowed purple and the sonic waves were deflected.
"Huh," said Yu.
Tsubasa smiled.
"Fine then," said Yu. "Special move! Final Inferno Blast!"
A powerful stream of energy emerged from Libra ad illuminated the warehouse.
"Take this!" cried Yu.
"Piece of cake," chuckled Tsubasa. Time to reveal my new powers. "Eagle! Eclipse Burst!"
"Eclipse Burst!" cried a shocked Yu.
Eagle launched into the air and a purple eagle appeared. Eagle then charged down and literally smashed Libra's attack in half.
"No way!" cried Yu. "That attack went through mine like it was nothing!"
Tsubasa chuckled evilly. "You will lose this match," said Tsubasa. "You cannot face up to Eagle's brand new powers. You are merely a bug in a world of giants. And I am the giant that will crush you."
"What are you talking about Tsubasa?" asked Yu worryingly.
Tsubasa stepped out of the shadows. Dark aura surrounded him and his eyes were no longer the same, they were jet black.
"Tsubasa," mumbled Yu.
"This is the end for you!" laughed Tsubasa. "Eagle! Metal Wing Smash!"
Eagle jumped into the air and shot downwards towards Libra.
"Libra!" cried Yu. "Sonic Storm!"
Green lightning exploded from Libra and interfered with Eagle's attack.
"Not bad," spat Tsubasa. "But is that all you got?"
"Libra!" cried Yu. "Sonic Buster!"
Libra began to vibrate and the whole field turned to sand.
"What a pointless move!" spat Tsubasa. "You know that Eagle can glide over the sand!"
"Libra spin faster!" commanded Yu.
Libra spun faster and began to sink.
"You fool!" spat Tsubasa. "By spinning faster, you are only making Libra sink!"
Soon, Libra was half submerged in sand.
"I'll save you Tsubasa," declared Yu. "Libra! Special move! Sand Storm!"
Libra began to vibrate and the sand began to shake violently and a sand storm erupted.
The sand flew around the arena and threw Eagle off balance and it began to wobble.
"Libra!" cried Yu. "Storm Pursuit!"
Libra began to vibrate differently and the sand now was making solid objects and attempting to attack Eagle with the objects.
"Take this!" cried Yu.
"Eagle! Dark Move!" cried Tsubasa. "Twilight Wing Smash!"
Tsubasa's hands were suddenly full of dark energy and he combined the energy and poured it into Eagle. Eagle then started to mutate into a monster like bird.
"Attack! Destroy! Crush!" cried Tsubasa crazily.
The mutant Eagle smashed into Libra and there was a huge explosion.
Yu was flung back from the impact and all the sand had been blown away. Libra had a few cracks but was still spinning.
Yu got up and began to cry. "Stop Tsubasa."
"Never!" cried Tsubasa. "Dark Move! Eagle! Assault Claw!"
The mutant Eagle reappeared and charged at Libra.
"Libra!" said Yu weakly. "Sonic Smasher."
Libra circled the arena and then charged at Eagle.
"Hahahahahah!" laughed Tsubasa as the bets hit.
Libra cracked even more and was sent flying.
Yu fell back and was greatly injured by Tsubasa's dark move.
Tsubasa, thought Yu sadly as he took Libra and ran.
Hahahahahaha!" Tsubasa laughed. "I will win! No one can stop me!
To be continued: Tsubasa has been possessed by the dark power again! But how? Meanwhile, Kenta challenges Benkei to a rematch. Who is stronger? Dark Bull or Flame Saggiterrio? And can anyone stop the possessed Tsubasa and his Eagle? Plus, the mysterious hooded blader returns.
