Sneak Peak Chapter 11 (Race Against The Time): Our heroes are now fighting with the time. Can they save Hilary before she made a wrong decision? (A/n: Pretty short? I know...)
Hilary woke up with another big headache attacking her head. She holds her head with both of her hands. "Why I kept getting weird dreams since I met Akuhei?"
She looks at the desk beside her bed and her right eyebrow rise a bit.
"Hey, where's Dranzer?"
Tyson sigh. He stares at the sky with a deep thought in his head. Not noticing that somebody is approaching him.
"Snap out of it!" Tyson shock and look behind. His eyes bulge when he sees who the one that say those words was
"K-Kai?" he said.
"No time to talk. We need to save Hilary from Hades, quick!" Kai told him.
At the mean time, Ray and Max show up and quickly notice Kai's presence. "Kai, is that you?" Max asks.
"Where have you been all this time?" Ray asks.
"Hell. I got a bad news..." Kai said, before he was rudely interrupted by Daichi.
"Hey, have got back from your vacation?" Daichi asks, more likely a smirk.
Kenny was about to ask something when Tyson cut his words. "Wait, wait! Who's Hades? And what did Hilary have to do with this guy?"
"Long story, but we have to go to that old abandon building." answers Kai.
"But..."
"We have to move, now before they brainwash Hilary!"
(Flashback)
12 midnight, Tachibana's House
A strange blue eyed black kitten staring at the house. The kitten then walks to the door, and stop. The cat looks at the door knob and suddenly the door opens by itself. She enters the house quietly and looks around her. Not a single sign of an active human, they are all fast asleep. The black feline walk towards a stairs a climb it until she reaches to the top.
Another door opens slowly by an invisible force, letting the kitten to enter the room easily. A girl sleeping on her bed, judging by her faces the cat knows that she is having a really horrifying nightmare. Slowly, the cat took the beyblade that has been place at the desk beside the girl's bed and ran out from the room quietly.
The cat finally arrives at the place. In front of the kitten, a human boy unconsciously lying at the ground. The cat slowly places the blue beyblade near the boy and waited until the boy awakens...
"What?"
Kai nodded. All of them look at each other.
"But, why he chooses Hilary? Not anyone else?" Ray asks.
"I still don't know. But, we have to save her before anything worst can happen."
Suddenly, Tyson ran from there. "Hey, where you going?" asks Daichi.
"Going to that old building." said Tyson. "I need to save Hill from that demon!"
"But, we never going to make it!" Kenny said.
"It's worth to try." Max said. He then follows Tyson. Not for long, the rest of them join Tyson and start to run as fast as they could.
At the same time...
The black kitten just watch those boys run and heading to the old abandon building. Suddenly a white eagle appears and landed beside the feline. The black kitten stare at the eagle and nodded. Then, both of the animals walk away from there.
Hilary just stare at the old building in front of her. Her heart pounding fast and loudly, she very sure if anyone standing near her they can hear her heart. Her feet seems to ignore her command, just freeze at the spot.
'This is not a very good idea, Hilary...' she hear a voice from her mind said. Hilary shook her head.
"Hey, Hilary!" Hilary look in front of her. Akuhei standing with a smile at his mouth.
"Hi..." she answers slowly. Causing Akuhei to confuse.
"What's wrong?" he ask.
"Nothing...I just feel a little sick, that's all..." Hilary answers. Then, she looks at the building. "Are you sure we're going to enter this building?"
Akuhei nodded. "Yes, is there something wrong?" Hilary eyes suddenly almost popped out from her socket.
Akuhei quickly remembers. "Oh, don't believe on that rumor. Nothing's scary inside!"
Hilary sighs "Well, if you say so..."
Mr. Dickenson looks at the picture in front of him. A picture of the same boy that broke into the BBA, and still they can't find him. The old man sighs, he lost contact of Hilary since she never wants to speak with him or the others. And he still kept wondering why the boy looks very weird.
Mr. Dickenson took off his spectacles and wipes it with a soft tissue. He wears it back and shoves the desk lamp towards the picture. Suddenly, his eyes grow bigger and he almost had a heart attack He stares at the picture, cold sweats start to appear at his forehead.
"It can't be!" he says.
At the same time, the door swung opens and creates a loud bang when it hits the wall...
The serious stare of a two teenage who is standing besides a small table greets Hilary when she enters the gloomy room. She tries to smiles and be friendly with them but it seems that they did not paying intention to her.
"Hilary, met my friends..." Akuhei continues "This is Angus..." Akuhei points at the boy who is standing near.
"Hi!" Hilary says. Angus look at her and smiles.
"Nice to met you, Angus!" she continues. Angus just nodded.
"And that is Ientra..." Akuhei points at the girl.
Hilary wants to greet her but unfortunately Ientra turn around and look at the beyblade. 'Okay, is it me or this two are acting like Kai...' her mind asks.
"And that's your beyblade!" Akuhei told her. Hilary look at the bloody red beyblade. She can see a purple blackish aura is surrounding that mysterious beyblade. Then, something caught her eyes- The picture of the bit-chip.
'The same black cobra of my dream...' she says. But the words only free at her mind.
Mr. Dickenson was stunned with the story that had been told by the young man in front of him.
"You meant, whoever this kid is, he's not a human?" the young man nodded.
"And that's the problem," the young man continues "we can't kill this creature easily. We need those four to combine and create one attack that can perish Hades for good."
Mr. Dickenson shut his eyes and think for a while. "No, we can't."
The young man look at the senior. "Dragoon, Dranzer, Draciel, Driger and Strata Dragoon's power are still not enough. Even thought I never met half bit-beasts before, we still need something even stronger that can combine with those four."
"And that's why; we need 'The Child'..."
"This beyblade is for me?" Hilary asks. For the third time, Akuhei nodded.
"Yeah, I made it for you! Do you like it?" Akuhei asks.
Hilary nodded. She tries to smile and hide her fear. Even so, cold sweat starts to appear at her forehead. Angus notices Hilary's awkwardness, but he just stare at the brunette.
Slowly, Hilary shoves one of her hand and tries to take the beyblade. However, she kept hearing a voice told her to not touch the beyblade.
'Hilary," she heard 'whatever you do, don't touch that beyblade!'
But, suddenly...
"Don't be scare... It's not like you will die if you took it..." Angus told her. Hilary just smile weakly.
'Angus right. I don't have to be scare. It's just a beyblade...' Hilary says to her heart.
Her hands become closer to the beyblade. Hilary eyes become sterner. Tyson's face suddenly appears at her mind, so does her anger towards the boy.
'I'll show you, Tyson! Wait until...'
Before Hilary gets to finish what she says, Ientra suddenly hissed and her soulless black eye suddenly change color to bloody red. Hades startled, he quickly change his gaze at the old wooden door.
In a second, the wooden door smashed into pieces. Two spinning beyblade landed in front of Ientra and Angus. Both of their eyes widened, while Hilary and Akuhei frowned. Not long after that, Tyson, Kai, Ray, Max, Kenny and Daichi storms inside the room.
"Hilary, stop! Don't touch that beyblade!" shouts Tyson.
"Tyson?" Hilary asks.
Akuhei quickly realize from his frown and shouts at Ientra and Angus. "Stop them!" Ientra quickly start to attack the boys.
Ray quickly step in front and command his beyblade to attack Ientra. Ientra manages to avoid the attack from Driger.
"Is that the best you can do?" smirk Ientra. Ray suddenly smiles.
"No, but prepare to taste your own medicine!" he asks back. Ientra confuse, but she found her answers when she heard Daichi's shouts. She quickly turn back and saw a purple beyblade start to fly towards her.
"Go, Strata Dragoon!"
Ientra tries to avoid, but it was too late. The purple beyblade hit her and knocking her towards the wall.
Max decide to attack Angus. He launch his beyblade and summon his bit-beasts, Draciel. Angus change form and tries to attack Draciel, but it seems that Draciel has more strength than him.
While the other were busy fighting with Ientra and Angus, Tyson, Kenny and Kai quietly walks towards Akuhei who his face has become paler than ever.
"Akuhei, what is happening? How can Angus do that?" Hilary asks.
Akuhei remain silence, that is until Tyson and Kenny quickly grab his hand, then they push him to the grounds.
"Because all of them are not human!" Kenny told her. "They were actually a half bit-beast that wants to destroy The Four Sacred Bit-Beasts and Strata Dragoon!."
"Hey!" Daichi shouts. "How come my Strata Dragoon is not one of the sacred beasts?"
"That is not important now, Daichi!" Tyson shouts back. Then, he realize Ientra launch her attack at Daichi. "Look out!" Tyson shouts.
"For what?" Daichi asks. Then he turn back and saw deep pink sharp crystals are flying towards him. Panic starts to attack Daichi and he start to loose control of Strata Dragoon.
"AAH!" Daichi shouts.
Ray's beyblade sprang to action and start to crush every single crystal that were thrown by Ientra one by one. When Ray realize that Ientra stop attacking and tries to create more poisonous crystals, he quickly attacks Ientra.
"Driger! Tiger Claw!" Ray shouts. (actually, i'd forgot what are the attacks were call... XP)
Ientra quickly avoid Driger's attack. She suddenly takes a deep breath and releases it loudly. Black smoke come out and starts to manipulate the room. After a second, everyone start to coughing.
Hades took the advantage quickly. He turns into a shadow and escape from Tyson and Kenny's grip. Hades suddenly turns around to Hilary and his silver eyes suddenly change into the same as Ientra and Angus.
Hilary shock, her hand swift up and covers her mouth preventing her to shout. She slowly moved back, but her eyes still on Hades.
Hades looks back at the teenagers in front of him. He chanted a spell and holds his hand in front of him. After a second the spell was cast, black fire start to appears, circling as quickly as lightning around Hades and Hilary. Tyson, Kenny and Kai jump back when the fire almost touched them, separating the three boys from their friends.
"Hilary!" Tyson called.
Hilary wants to shouts back, but another hand covers her mouth. She then realizes it was Hades's, and she swears she could see fire in Hades's red eyes.
"Hilary, listen to me!" shouts Tyson "Hades just using you! He's trying to get his revenge on our bit-beast by using you as his weapon!"
Hilary pushes Hades's hand slowly and answers "Why should I trust you?". But, her voice sounded less confident than usual.
"Because we're your friend, Hills! You can trust us." Kenny replied.
Hades suddenly chuckles. He stares at Kenny and said "Friends? Are you sure?"
"You don't have anything to do with this, Hades!" Tyson scolded.
Hilary quickly walk closer towards Hades and want to told him that he don't have to involve in her problem, but Hades interrupt her.
"Try to think again, Granger." Hades said, "You really sure that you are Hilary's friend?"
"Yes, we are! We also know her more than you!"
Hades chuckles softly. "Well, then. If you think that you are her friends, you wouldn't hurt her feeling so bad."
"What do you mean?" Kenny asks.
Hilary was confused at first, but then she realizes what Hades talking about. "That day..." she murmured.
"You insult her by accusing her as a thief just even though that you didn't know the real story, telling her that she's not important to the team..." Hades's eyes glare at Hilary, who was already drowned by her memories. "...and most of all," Hades look at Tyson, and continues "...Hilary lost her closest friends."
"But, it was just a misunderstood! That missing files was just a small thing, everybody makes mistakes!" Tyson shouts back.
"Small thing?" asks Hilary. Tears start to appear in her eyes.
Tyson quickly realize his fault. He wasn't supposed to say about the missing files again, especially in front of Hilary.
Hades, who is waiting for this moment, smiles evilly. 'Gotcha!' he said in his mind.
"Hill, I didn't mean-"
"You say that thing is just a small thing? How could you! For me, that is the worst moment in my life! I'd tried so badly to forget it whenever one of you says that you're sorry, but it's just a small matter to you? You don't know how I felt when all my friends that I trust all the time, suddenly left me and start to think badly just because of that stupid files!" Hilary shouts.
"Hilary!" calls Kenny.
"That's enough! You-! You-! You selfish!" shouts Hilary. She turns back and starts to walk near the beyblade, not listening to anyone who is calling her name.
"Hilary, don't!" Kai shouts. He then stares at Hades. The flames from the fire swirl furiously around its creator, as if it was trying to protect Hades. Kai knew that the flame was destroyable. He pulls out Dranzer and attaches the blue beyblade to the launcher.
"Let it rip!" Dranzer was launched and start to fly towards the flames. The blue beyblade then start to spin anti-clockwise around the fire in a circle quickly, creating a small tornado sucking all the fire inside the beyblade. Tyson, who had just realized what his teammates doing, join him.
"Dragoon!" shouted Tyson. He knows what he needs to do. But, must of all, he need to save Hilary from Hades!
"Dranzer!" shouted Kai.
Dragoon and Dranzer appear from their bit-chip and start to fly towards Hades. Hades just watch as he starts to chant the same spell that he use to create the fire.
Hilary just watch the battle between her friends. Her tears start to fall. She turns her gaze to the red beyblade and pushes one of her hands towards the beyblade. Some part of her start to shout, 'Don't! Don't do it, Hilary!'
'But, I must...' she said in her mind as her hand is getting nearer the beyblade. '...I teach Tyson a lesson. I'll show them who their messing with!'
Hilary shoves her hand in front and grip the beyblade tightly.
"NO!" shout Kai.
