Takao running with a smile on him.

["HEY YO NUMBER ONE ni naritaku jibun de kangae naosou kantan ni mitsukaru nai FIND YOUR OWN WAY, kousoku,"]

A bird flying up above the blue sky.

["NETTO de INTERNATIONAL KINDA haitaku no tori aite wo RISAACHI RESEARCH YOUR DIGITAL kaisen INTERNET,"]

The bird flying and below was the city of Tokyo.

["SPIN IT LIKE A BEYBLADE HEY YO,"]

Dragoon's symbol came crashing down to earth.

["Jiko seigyo dekinai kya omae no make,"]

Landing in front of Takao.

["AH DON'T SAY YOU USE A BEY wo mushi omae no kaachan yobi dashite,"]

Takao's beyblade was formed.

["Maware maware tomaru koto nee BLAZAY BLAZAY TELL ME TELL ME WHAT YOU SAID."]

Takao turned and launched his beyblade.

["Atama no naka no shikou kairo Yogen ichinan FULLkaiten,"]

The spinning top, Dragoon spun throughout the field.

["Gainen daitan saizen assei dondon ga eishin deai gyakuten,"]

A beam of light shone from within the top, and soon, Dragoon, had been summoned onto the field, roaring.

Rei showed a bright smile that was curled up on his lip, lifting his arm as a faded Driger shoots itself.

["OFF THE CHAIN OFF THE CHAIN UH HUH HUH HUH."]

Ashley shot her arms up with a wide grin, a victorious feeling dwelling inside her as Wolverine emits itself.

["OFF THE CHAIN ikusei touzai nan boku

Then Max, Rei, Kai, Ashley and finally Takao.

Episode Twelve: Solitary Island's Decisive Battle

"I'm impressed you made it all the way out here." the boy laughed. "But you're fighting me. Which means... you've drawn a bad hand, Hiwatari Kai." the boy nodded over to where Kai stood.

Ashley frowned at the boy, feeling herself spazz and swallowed from nervous.

"I get it. That's their plan." Kenny started. "Their plan was to destroy all the other bridges to lead us here."

Ashley gasped, her eyes dilating. "Kai..." she whispered, growing more worried.

Kai sensed Ashley's worry tone, but remained calm for her sake. "The lighthouse is on the other side of this bridge. Look's like I have to fight."

Ashley averted her gaze to Kai. "I—I guess this match is all yours." she interlaced her hands, and walked even closer to Kai, whispering over to him, eyeing at the boy. "B—be careful."

Kai hummed. He smiled and looked at Ashley. "I will." he stepped up to the dish.

"The BBA team's strongest player, Hiwatari Kai. This is yours and Dranzer's coffin!" the boy started. "Say your prayers!"

Kai seemed uninterested to what the boy had to say. "If you were a half-decent blader, you wouldn't be running your mouth." he remarked with a smart attitude.

Ashley silently oo'ed and placed a small fist above her parted lips. Oh no he didn't— who knew Kai could give attitude like that.

She was actually even more drawn to Kai, and silently squealed.

"What?!" The boy gasped. He got frustrated and gritted his teeth, glaring daggers at Kai. "Damn you."

"Ashley."

Ashley perked her head up, her small fist above her mouth still. "Hm?"

Kai looked from the corner of his eyes. "Don't worry. I'll make sure I'll get us to the lighthouse." he promised.

Ashley tilted her head and batted her lashes. She felt an odd sensation dwelling up inside her belly and her face had been dusted into a cute pink hue.

Kai smiled at Ashley's respond and turned his gaze back at his opponent.

Kai's opponent readied his launcher.

Kai merely just looked at him and then he took out his Dranzer and also readied for battle.

Opening his laptop and booting it up, with just quick seconds away, Kenny began typing away.

Ashley started to wonder if it was such a good idea for Kenny to be on his laptop at a time like this.

Kenny had something up his sleeve, however.

Ashley leaned over Kenny's shoulder. "Kenny, what are you doing?" She whispered.

"I'm scanning to see if any more of those bit beast capturing systems are around here. I'm trying to also hack into the system." Kenny explained.

Dizzi popped up. "Heads up, Kyoujyu, you are right in the middle of those two systems." she pointed out while popping up two white, blinking circles on the monitor, indicating where they were.

Kenny nodded. "Okay, now it's time to hack in and jam their frequency so they can't use the system anymore." Kenny typed.

Ashley had her lip in an 'o' shape then nodded. "Ah. I see. Good luck, Kenny." she had her lip into a thin line and patted Kenny's back.

After the countdown, the two bladers launched their blades into the dish.

[Waited so long, standing for you,

The world beneath your feet.]

"Dranzer!" Kai shouted.

Both beyblades collided, and repelled away from each other.

[Crumbling down, you come around,

To realize what I can be!]

Ashley stared at the battle. She couldn't help but to get a little worried. She hoped Kai knew what he was doing.

[I've paid my dues and

I've earned my kick,]

Ashley shook her head and slapped her cheeks. What was she saying? Of course Kai could handle a match like this.

[I'm taking the stage,

Spotlight shining on me!]

Ashley had her small hands into a fist while staring intently at Kai. "Kai. You can do it! I know you can!"

[Gonna steal your thunder,

Coming up from under,]

Still having an intense look over her, Ashley whispered over to Kenny. "Kenny, You almost there?"

"Hang on, I'm trying." Kenny replied while trying to crack the code.

[I got your number,

IM THE UNDERDOG!]

The blades kept on counterattacking one another. Kai frowned. "Finish him of, Dranzer!"

[Gonna stand your ground,

Turn your head around,]

The boy scoffed but smirked. "Go! Crush him!"

Kai only grunted at the boy. The boy's bey knocked Dranzer back.

[I'm gonna take you down cos

IM THE UNDERDOG!]

"Nothing yet, Kyoujyu. Still trying to climb over those codes." Dizzi said.

Ashley puffed her cheeks. "You can do this, Kai!" she continued to root for him.

Then out of nowhere, the boy only smirked. He was impressed by Kai being able to withstand him. "He's good. But I'm just getting warmed up! Tornado Attack!"

[Don't waste my time, play with my mind,

I already know your destiny.

At the end of this race, I'm taking your place,]

A vortex formed around the boy's beyblade and began drill into Dranzer.

[For now and all eternity!

I've paid my dues and

I've earned my kicks,

I'm taking the stage,

Spotlight shining on me!]

Dranzer began to wobble, losing its spin. Kai's eyes dilated, and leaned close to the stadium. "What?"

[Gonna steal your thunder,

Coming up from under,

I got your number,

IM THE UNDERDOG!]

"Problem, Dranzer?" the boy yelled. "Push me back! Is that all you've got?" he taunted. "If you can't, then call out your Sacred Beast... come on, bring it out!"

Kai narrowed his eyes at the boy. Kai's metallic arm brace began to beep Red.

[Gonna stand your ground,

Turn your head around,]

The opponent's bey contiuned to drill right through to Dranzer.

[I'm gonna take you down cos

IM THE UNDERDOG!]

Ashley caught the red beeping. She figured that those braces where used to monitor their progress.

Kai acted like he didn't hear the boy.

However, he started to rethink about his choices and chances of winning the match. He wanted to call his Dranzer out but...

Ashley frowned. She get the feeling that Kai was trying to hang in there without Dranzer. "Kenny. Please hurry up." she pleaded Kenny.

"I'm trying—" Kenny started but Dizzi cut in. "We're in, Kyoujyu! Now to upload a virus that'll block and jam their program! Done!"

"Ah! We did it! We just crashed there system Ash—" Kenny was cut off while turning to Ashley. The female bluenette had pulled Kenny into an embrace.

[You think your hip,

But you're going down for a trip,

So you better get over it!]

Kenny felt his face suddenly heat up and was struggling to breath from Ashley's oddly strong arms. "Yay! You're the best Kenny!" Ashley smiled and soon released Kenny from her strong grip.

Ashley turned to the match, returning to her same posture from her before. "Kai! He took down the Sacred Beast capture system! Do not hold back! It's safe to call out Dranzer!"

[Take a ride,

Shake up your head high,

Don't go wasting my time cos

You're mine!]

Kai glanced from his shoulder as his eyes locked with Ashley's. He overheard her and Kenny and gotten the news.

Kai gave Ashley a small smile before turning his head back to the battle. "I appreciate what you guys did, but I don't need Dranzer for someone like him." he said.

The boy scoffed at Kai's insult.

[I've paid my dues and

I've earned my kick,]

Then, Dranzer seemed to gain power out of nowhere. It started to push back the opponent's bey.

[I'm taking the stage,

Spotlight shining on me!]

"What?!" gasped the boy.

"I don't need my Sacred Beast to take you down!" Kai said.

Dranzer had slice through the vortex and hit the boy's blade head on.

[Gonna steal your thunder,

Coming up from under,]

"Shoot, where'd all this power come from?" the boy started to sweat.

Dranzer was gaining the upper hand in the battle.

[I got your number,

IM THE UNDERDOG!]

Ashley pumped her fist forward. She was getting hype just by watching. She did shared that same trait as Takao when watching a Beyblattle going. "You can do it Kai! Show him who's boss!"

[Gonna stand your ground,

Turn your head around,]

Kai mentally smiled at Ashley's boost of words. He swiped his hand into thin air. "Flame Saber!"

I'm gonna take you down cos

IM THE UNDERDOG!]

Dranzer gained even more speed and caused his opponent's blade to be knocked out of the dish and fall to the river below.

"Crap! I won't forget this!" and with that, the boy took off seconds later.

Ashley and Kenny ran by Kai's side to congratulate him.

"That was amazing, Kai!" Kenny said.

Ashley was in awe. Her eyes sparkling at Kai. "You did it, Kai. You were truly amazing!" she cheered with a wide grin and a small, visible blush on her cheeks.

Kai picked up Dranzer and gave the two a small smile. "Thanks guys."

With that, the three headed their desired location; to the lighthouse.

...

With them finally arriving to the lighthouse, Ashley used the battle analyzer to contact the others. "Hilary? Max? Takao? Rei? Is anyone there at all?"

Meanwhile, Kenny began to tinker with the radio cables inside the lighthouse.

At first, there was no respond.

Ashley looked around and had a small pout on her lip. She pressed the button of the speaker. "Hello this is sub unit 1. Calling for sub unit 2. Over."

Rei felt a buzz on his pocket. He grabbed his battle analyzer and heard Ashley. He sweatdropped. "Ashley?" he said from the other side of the line.

Ashley frowned. "This is sub unit 1. Calling for sub unit 2. Over." She tried again.

Rei blinked. He sighed while trying to cooperate with Ashley's act. "This is sub unit... 2. Over."

"How are you guys? Is everyone safe? How is big capped brother? Over."

"We're fine but Takao— I mean big capped brother's ankle is still pretty swollen. We had to run out of a collapsing cave which didn't help his ankle." Rei looked over to where Takao and the others where, "Over."

Hilary was honestly this close to snapping Takao's other ankle. "I told you this would happen, Takao! But noooooo! You need to be more careful next time!"

Takao groaned. He barked at Hilary. "Oh yeah like it's my fault that a cave was crumbling down on us! I'll just walk next time!"

Ashley nodded from the other line as she could overhear her brother and Hilary's little quarrel.

The line got a little static-like and Ashley could hardly hear Takao and Hilary.

Rei moved away from the group so he and Ashley could discuss alone. "Anyways, did you guys make it to the lighthouse? Over." He asked.

Ashley didn't know, but she oddly found Rei's voice to be soothing through a speaker. She let out a small giggle and smiled. "Mhm. Currently, Goggles is working on trying to get the radio to work again. Over."

Rei chuckled at Ashley giving code names to everyone. "Well I'm glad you guys are alright. Contact us when you guys get through. Over."

Ashley nodded. "Of course, Kitten Boy. Cheerio! Over." she said and disconnected the chat.

Rei blinked and sweatdropped at his battle analyzer. Was that supposed to be his own code name?

Ashley peeked inside the lighthouse where Kai and Kenny were. "Any luck?" she asked while nearing the two.

"Not yet. But I'll keep trying." Kenny said.

Ashley slowly nodded. "Ah. I'm sure you'll get it fix, Goggles. Good luck."

Kenny looked at Ashley, a confused look on him. "What?"

...

After Rei talked to Ashley, he returned to the rest of the group.

"So? What did she say? Have they made it?" Max asked while Hilary and Takao stopped their quarrel and looked at Rei.

Rei nodded. "Yeah. They just made it there. Kenny is working on the cables to fix the there."

Takao sighed in relief. "I'm so glad. At least Ashley is safe."

"Yeah. She said the same thing to you, big capped brother." Rei murmured.

Takao rose a brow at Rei. "What?"

Rei shook his head. "Nothing."

The man's voice came on. "Kids of the BBA team! Max, Rei, and now Hiwatari Kai. The world champion team doesn't disappoint. You are all excellent bladers."

Takao perked his head up. "Kai? Did he fight, too?"

"You've all done a good job in defeating my bladers. Our island battle tournament is about to end, only two more bladers are left to decide who wins the match." the voice added.

"Two?" Takao mumbled. "Ah. Then that means Ashley and I are the only ones left." he frowned.

The voice was starting to piss him off big time.

Takao swore, if these people forced Ashley to battle then he'll make sure the guy will pay.

The man's voice chuckled. "Ah. But it's not going to be easy. Not for you nor for your little sister."

"And if we win, you promised us you'll let us leave?" Max inquired.

"If you win, yes." then the guy started to laugh. "Head towards the direction of the sun and you'll come to your next battle." The man said. "I wish you luck."

They all had no choice.

Takao stood up and limped along with Rei and Hilary and Max walking, following the man's instructions.

Right in front of the waterfall, on the last patch of earth before hitting the water, was their next opponent.

They all stared at the boy.

Takao squinted his eyes. He remembered him.

'Derrick? No! Darrel! A trainee battled him and he beat him big time!' Takao thought.

Rei narrowed his eyes. "He's mine."

"Rei. Leave this one to me. I can't let these guys get away with all their cheap tricks. Let me handle this." Max stepped in.

"I feel the same way. Let me handle this."

"But—"

"I don't care who battles so hurry up and get over here!" Darrel yelled. "I don't care if I have to take you both down!"

Takao glared. "I'll do it."

"Takao! You can't battle him! You're no shape to battling nor stand up." Hilary said.

Takao shook his head. "I don't care guys. I'm the only one here that hasn't battle these punks yet."

"You kidding, Takao? You could seriously damage your ankle more!" Hilary yelled with concern, as she tried to stop Takao from moving any further.

Takao just shoved Hilary from his way. "I don't care. Now it's my turn to finish them off."

And with that, Takao limped over to the beydish.

They both loaded their launchers and started the countdown.

"Go Shoot!"

---

"Help is on the way!" Kenny exclaimed as he finally got off the phone.

Ashley blinked and grinned. "Ah. That's wonderful. Great job, Kenny."

Kai nodded at the announcement. "We should head back to the others." he pointed out.

Ashley nodded at Kai. "Yes. Let's go."

As they retraced back their steps, they headed over to the bridge and then into the woods, planning to reunite with the rest of the BBA team sub-unit.

The three entered to a small opening of the woods.

There was something in the middle.

Once the three neared it, they found themselves a Beyblade stadium.

Which meant...

"I've been waiting for you, Kinomiya Ashley!" said a boy in a Psykick uniform.

Ashley looked for the source of the voice until her eyes landed to the boy.

Her cold, ice-blue like pupils widen as they glistened. Ashley knew what this meant.

Her battle against team Psykick.

The boy chuckled. "Ready for our battle? Or are you too scared and weak to battle like the rumors say you are?" with that statement being said, the boy laughed.

Ashley only deadpanned. She narrowed her eyes and was about to step up to the dish, that is until Kenny had stopped her. She slowly eyed back in forth while staying frozen. Her eyes landed next to her.

Kenny.

Ashley grabbed Kenny's shoulders and pushed him forward. "You're up, Goggles."

Kenny didn't knew what was going on and used his heels to stop by being pushed. He quickly turned to Ashley, with a frantic look. "Ashley!"

The boy only sighed and rolled his eyes, twirling his launcher. "Come on. I'm waiting."

Ashley slumped her shoulders. It's not that she was afraid to battle— (that was a lie, she was. She didn't wanted to Beyblade since she was afraid she'll mess up) she was just too lazy to.

Ashley twiddled her thumbs and looked innocently at Kenny then at the boy, who was tapping his foot. She knew she had no choice.

Kai noticed her actions and was about to step in for her until Ashley beat him to it.

"Fine..." Ashley had a small pout on her lip. "I—I'll battle you." she slowly began to walk towards the beydish.

"Ashley, are you sure about this? You don't really have to if you don't want to." Kenny said with worry in his tone.

Ashley shrugged. "I—I've got no other choice, Kenny. Besides," narrowing her eyes at her opponent, She continued. "I—It's time for m—me to come out o—of my shell and face my enemies."

Kenny looked unsure at first but nodded with a smile. "Good luck."

Kai smiled at Ashley's sudden confidence. "Show them what you got, Ashley." he chimed in.

Ashley only lowered her head, still having a small pout. "I—I will." she murmured.

The boy gave Ashley a look. "Tch. You think you can beat me? Ha! You're dead wrong girly girl. I'm gonna put you in the di—"

Before the boy could finish, Ashley cut him off. "Ex—excuse me but c—can we get this battle st—started and over with?" she asked with the most innocent look on her face, almost trying to feign a tough act.

The boy began to grow frustrated. "Tch. You asked for it!" the boy yelled, pulling out his launcher.

Ashley took out her sky blue and clear white gold launcher out, along with her blade; Wolverine Sea.

They both had readied for battle.

"Three."

"Two.

"One."

"Go Shoot!"

[Switchblade, do what I got to,]

After the countdown, they both launched their Beyblade's clashed into mid air before landing inside the dish.

[Vacate, coming right at you,]

Wolverine immediately went in for the defense.

[Slow down, before you take your last step,]

The boy's blade just head on slammed into Wolverine, causing it to wobble a little.

[This is a test of the; bumps 'n' bruises,]

Although, his beyblade kept on attacking, Wolverine dodged each one.

[You know you get used to,]

The boy didn't looked too pleased. "Tch. What's wrong? Are you running away already? Just fight me!"

[I choose to run with my whole crew,]

Ashley only blinked at the boy before looking back at the battle. "Wolverine."

[Lock down, it's gonna be a blackout,]

Immediately Wolverine began to counterattack the boy's blade.

[Now it's your turn, let me hear you shout,]

The boy only shook his head and smirked at Ashley. "Seriously? Is that all you got? Now, Final solution!" He yelled and Ashley only scrunched her nose in confusion.

[YEAH! YEAH!]

His blade began to form a tornado just like Kai's last opponent.

[I'm gonna teach you, class in session,]

A gust of wind surrounded Ashley and the boy.

[It's a long rope, like a flexi-fall,

Above ground, do the things you used to,]

The boy held his palm out. "What are you waiting for? Bring out the wolf! Bring out Wolverine!"

[Cause if you could live like me,]

The foe's bey countinued to taunt around Wolverine, landing small hits.

[Underground, lonely sights and lonely sounds,]

Ashley tilted her head while chewing on her thumb while eyeing at her Beyblade.

[Could you fight the darkness, all around,]

"Bring Wolverine out!" The boy shouted more.

[No way up and all ways down,]

"I will not." Ashley said, her bey still repelling each attacks.

"Bring out your Sacred Beast!" shouted the boy one more time, his bey becoming more forceful on the attacks.

[For me this is the only game in town.]

Kai didn't appreciated how the boy was yelling at Ashley.

However, he knew for the fact that Ashley was having trouble and she had to call out Wolverine.

It was her only chance to win.

[Action, everything is set to,]

"Ashley, Call out your Sacred beast." Kai said.

[Explode, cause now it seems you got to,]

Ashley flickered her eyes at Kai.

"I know you're trying to fight this alone but you can't keep this up. Bring out your Sacred Beast!" Kai yelled, advising the lass.

[Reload, it's time to go solo,

Hey duck! This place is gonna blow,]

Ashley had a blank look.

Kai gave her a small smile and she looked away.

[Chucked down, you're covered in dirt and,

Stay down, trouble is you're hurt now,]

"Perhaps you're right." Ashley started.

However that actually wasn't the case.

[You're back, this is what it's all about,

Now it's your turn, let me hear you shout,]

Ashley eyed at the boy and blew air from her lip. "I—I don't mean to be rude, but you're actually nothing compared to the battles I had to face during my days back in the academy."

[YEAH! YEAH!]

The boy made a face. "What?"

[I'm gonna teach you, class in session,

It's a long rope, like a flexi-fall,

Above ground, do the things you used to,]

Ashley sighed and nodded with a thin line on her lip. "Mhm. Nothing at all. Look."

[Cause if you could live like me,

Underground, lonely sights and lonely sounds,]

[Could you fight the darkness, all around,

No way up and all ways down,

For me this is the only game in town.]

The boy look at the beydish and his eyes widen.

(Do you want this?)

His Beyblade was taking a beating by Wolverine.

(Break it down now.)

Wolverine wasn't hesitating on any attacks.

(Can you feel this?)

(This is how we groove now.)

(Can you live this?)

(This is what we fly now.)

(This is how we got it going-)

Ashley smiled. "Now time for the finale."

[Could you live like me?

Underground, lonely sights and lonely sounds,]

Ashley swiped her hand out like a claw. "Wolverine. Slice through the water."

[Could you fight the darkness, all around,

No way up and all ways down,

For me this is the only game in town.

For me this is the only game in town.]

Water began to form around Wolverine.

[Cause if you could you live like me,

Underground, lonely sights and lonely sounds,]

Immediately, Wolverine's spin gain more acceleration and knocked out her opponent's beyblade, causing several pieces to fall off of his bey.

[Could you fight the darkness, all around,

No way up and all ways down,

For me this is the only game in town.]

The boy whimpered and ran off.

Wolverine flew back into Ashley's palm.

"Wow, Ashley! That was incredible. Who knew you actually packed a lot of strength in you." Kenny went by her side and grinned.

Ashley puffed her cheeks and grinned with a small giggle coming from her. "O—oh, it was nothing. But thank you, Kenny."

Kai was truly impressed. Who knew Ashley had it in her. She could— No, he knew that Ashley was at the same level as her own brother.

Kai joined Kenny and congratulated Ashley. "Good job, Ashley." he smiled.

Ashley turned over to look at Kai and smiled. "Thank you, Kai. I proved to you that I could do it."

Kai smirked. "You sure did."

Ashley nodded and grinned. "Now, Let's head back with the others."

Kai and Kenny both nodded in agreement.

---

Meanwhile...

Takao's battle was still progressing. It wasn't going so well.

Darrel's blade always swiftly dodged Dragoon's attack.

Takao had difficulty battling since his ankle was still throbbing in pain.

"Time to finish you off!" Darrel's blade slammed head on with Dragoon.

"Takao! That guy is causing a vacuum to shoot water from his tip of his blade!" Max pointed out.

Takao growled. 'These freaks! Damn. No wonder why Dragoon is struggling.' he thought.

The dish was slick which favored Darrel.

"Come on, Seiryu!" Takao had a struggle to keep up on his feet. "Arg—! Attack!"

Damn.

Dragoon was really having a hard time to keep his spin and speed due to the slippery surface.

Not only that but Takao could hardly concentrate because of his injured leg.

"Come on Takao! Just beat him already!" Hilary yelled.

"You can do this, Takao!" Rei cheered.

"Yeah! C'mon Takao! Win this!" Max shouted.

Takao knew that they were trying to root for him but it still wasn't enough.

He slumped his shoulders. He can't let his friends nor his sister down.

Just when Takao thought just when all hope was lost, a new voice cried out to him.

"Takao!"

Takao's eyes snapped wide open and turned to see Ashley, Kenny and Kai standing with the rest of the BBA team.

'They're okay! She's okay...'

"You can do it!" Kenny cried out.

"Focus Takao!" Rei yelled.

"We know you can do this!" Max cheered.

"Don't give up, Takao!" Hilary screamed out.

All the support Takao was receiving from his team was enough to give him more strength and determination to win.

"Seiryu!"

A sudden whirlwind formed around Takao's Beyblade and soon, Dragoon appeared.

However, the same capturing systems from before appeared and Dragoon was caught in an electric net.

Takao frowned. 'Like some stupid net will keep us from winning!'

After a moment or two, Dragoon burst through the electric net and the capturing system was destroyed.

Then, a moment later, Seiryu gave his final attack and the other blade was knocked out of the dish.

Hence, all matches were won.

Claiming the Bladebreakers as the winners.

"Way to go, Takao!" Everyone cheered.

Ashley grinned and jumped on Takao, clearing forgetting about his injured ankle. "You did it! I knew you could!"

"Ouch! Heh, Thanks, Ashley but ow! My ankle is— ow! Still hurting— ahh!" Takao cried out in pain.

Takao tried to clutch his ankle and Ashley right away released him from the embrace.

"Oh! I'm so sorry! I'm so sorry! I'm so sorry! I've completely forgotten!" Ashley frantically said while repeatedly apologizing.

Takao looked at Ashley and tried to smile. "It's fine. Don't worry about it, sis." he said.

Ashley kneeled before him. "Here, Let me wrap it for you." she teared a piece of fabric from her skirt. She made sure to tighten it around Takao ankle to put enough pressure on it but not too tight to hurt him even more.

"There. Is that better?" Ashley asked gently.

"Yeah, I think so— Ow!" Takao yelped. "It still hurts."

Ashley tilted her head and scratched her cheek. "Takao, I'm no nurse. What did you expected?" she asked innocently while blinking.

The sound of a helicopter can be heard.

Everyone ran toward the opening where they could all be seen.

"Hey! Over here!" Rei yelled and waved, along with Max, Hilary and Kenny.

Inside the helicopter was Daitenji and the sibling's grandfather.

Everyone smiled.

They were finally going back home.

To an even safer land.

Back home.

---

[ENDING: OZONE STARTS]

The city of Tokyo light's dazzling with life. him having his hands on his hips).

Kai's silhouette with his arms crossed while looking up.

Ashley's silhouette, her hair down, however caught in a delicate breeze.

Rei's silhouette was standing still while seeming looking up.

Max's silhouette having his hands behind his head.

And ending it with Kenny looking down while holding onto his laptop and Hilary setting her hair behind her ear with her hand.

[Ama no gawa ukabu Se no hikui oka
Miwatasu keshiki wa Souzou to chigau,]

Takao was staring out at the river, as Dragoon's spirit can be seen flying above the nighty-starry Sky.

[Ano koro to kurabe Mae ni susumeta?
Kotae wa NO ja nai Dakedo tarinai,]

The borderline was next on this list. Kai was looking out through the distance with his arms crossed above his torso, staring out at the sea. Dranzer bursting it's majestic flame wings out to the sea.

[Ijiwaru na "Kami" ga Bokura tamesunda
Kuuseki wo umete,]

Rei was standing on top of construction sight, on one of the rusty rails while looking about the clear-light sky, Driger in the middle of the air with its claws out and roaring at the sun.

As for Max can be seen below the sight, looking down while having a doubt look in his oceanic hues. Draciel bursted in the background, with water raining down in the back.

[Tsugi no suteeji e mukaou,]

A bright light glowed. Takao, Kai, Rei, Max, Ashley, Kenny and Hilary all gazing from a beyblade.

[Donna kankei? nante kikaretara
Tomodachi ijou ka na... Sore mo sukoshi chigau ka...]

Ashley had her hair flowing into the air with a white ribbon on her left hand. Having her pink umbrella, above was her Wolverine, howling at the seemingly visible rainbow above the two while the park rained.

[Kizuna to iu kotoba ga fusawashii
Kenkashiai nagara Wakachiai nagara,]

Hilary and Kenny were staring out at magnificent ocean before them. All Holy Beasts above the oceanic water.

[Nee ima, doko? Chikyuun naka,]

Background theme is space.

Hilary had her hands flowing from her hips as Kenny (having his laptop on his side) gave a salute.

[Uchuuhikoushi ja nai kara,]

Rei looked above as his long ponytail flow around him while floating in front of Driger.

Max had his hand raised while a bit of his abdomen from the lack of gravity in space, but still, Max had a smile while having his Draciel by his side.

[OZONE yori shita nara mondai nai,]

Ashely looked above her with her hand out and while floating as if she were sitting down, one leg a bit bend and the other not. Wolverine was right behind her, howling up above.

Kai just had his arms crossed and eyes closed. Being floated and almost having the same stance as Ashley with his leg a bit bend and the other not. Dranzer behind him while having it's fiery wings spread.

Takao just smiled while having his arms on his hips. His hat almost wanting to come off. Dragoon was flying behind him in stance.

[Wakatteru, sugu iku, Asa made sawagitai no deshou,]

Takao and Hilary were bickering as the rest of the group having either a sweat drop, an 'oh-brother' look, or simply not minding the two's business (most likely, Kai).

["Taisetsu na ibasho de."]

A picture of the group appeared with them all smiling.

Entry Seven.

Home safe home.

Hello. It's been a while since I last wrote here. Actually, it's been almost a week since. But oh my, do I have a lot to say.

Supposedly, my friends and I were supposed to go to a certain location for a small tournament against team Psykick but that really backfired. We ended up on some forested yet deserted island. All surrounded by ocean. The ocean! At first we were on a bus? A suspicious one. A I infer that we were gassed with some sleeping gas? Since oddly enough, I woke up inside some vacant room.

It was a wild ride. My friends and I tried to find a way out but then this man started to speak through wires? I'm not sure but theoretically it could be the mastermind behind these bladers hunting for our Sacred Beasts. I'm not exactly sure why though.

On another note, I ended up going on a roller coaster ride inside a mine cart and my poor dear brother got hurt. He's at the hospital right now and I sure do miss him around the house.

Anyways, the BBA team and I ended up splitting up into two sub units; Takao with Hilary, Max and Rei while I went with Kenny and Kai to the lighthouse to see if there would be any sort of communication device to contact any authorities for help.

At that part, when I was strolling by the edge of a cliff, a huge rock fell and I thought I was about to die! But that's when Kai came in to the rescue and shielded Kenny and I from (which turned out to be an explosion). I never felt so... in love before. Kai actually went in and protected Kenny and I. My heart still flutters at that since he was too close to me! I wanted to squeal and faint but I didn't since that would be bad and completely embarrassing.

Moving along, Kai had to battle his opponent since the boy was blocking our path to the lighthouse and he won!

Now here comes the most interesting part.

After sub unit one contacted sub unit two, I ended up having to battle a team Psykick member. I had no other choice. When I battled, I sensed an odd feeling coming from Wolverine. A warmer feeling. I wasn't able to draw out my power at all yet. As the boy tried to hit my Wolverine, it was difficult to comprehend my own Wolverine. Ever since the incident, I haven't been able to adapt Wolverine's true power. As if, the ice has finally melted.

As if, I haven't been able to take off my mask. Our mask.

On the other hand, my friends and I actually made it safe back home. My brother managed to defeat the last opponent on the island and helped soon arrived.

But, I figure, that won't be the last time we'll hear from Team Psykick.
