Disclaimer: If TT owned beyblade, Kai would probably share a birthday with her.
The BladeBreakers stood, completely frozen by the gaze of their possessed captain. Eyes narrowed, teeth bared and muscles tense, Black Dranzer was ready for a fight they weren't after. Even if Black Dranzer had attacked them, no one thought they could fight back, Kai was still in there somewhere.
Max let out a sudden whimper, "I thought Kai was in control..."
Ray and Tyson were silent, teeth gritted as the tried not to give into the despair and panic that filled their minds.
The possessed one's eyes flicked around the room rapidly, never stopping for a moment, before he suddenly ran to the open window and jumped out.
With a cry, the remaining teens ran to the window, calling out Kai's name as he landed neatly on his feet.
There was a slight pause, and then the possessed one turned to look up at them with those narrowed, haunting black eyes, as if promising his return, and then ran off, white scarf trailing behind him.
But a blow to the head had distracted Kai long enough for the phoenix to take control. Now Kai was stuck, once again, into the little dark place that had been designed for him.
But the teen understood more now, he was struggling more. Black Dranzer couldn't risk battling the humans until Kai had calmed down. if he were to so much as glance at his teammates in this state, he might feel a new sense of resolve, or however it was humans worked.
Which is why claiming the power of the other bitbeast would have to take place later. First, it was necessary for Black Dranzer to reinforce his control over his human counterpart. And that's all Kai was really, human, an exceedingly strong one, but still human.
Currently, Black Dranzer was concealed amongst the bushes in the park. Avoiding everyone, but not hiding, no, Black Dranzer was far too strong to hide.
There was a resulting somewhere deeper into the bushes. Spinning around, Black Dranzer came face to face with a masked figure. Boris did nothing but smirk as he watched the expression on Kai's face. The alcohol seemed to have worn off quickly, leaving him laughing sadistically as Kai curled up into a fetal ball at the door. Kai was strong, but not strong enough to resist Black Dranzer, he was sure of it, Black Dranzer would win...
A door attacking the teen, however, was perhaps the most unexpected thing to happen at that moment. Nonetheless, it was Black Dranzer that rose from the floor, not Kai. But the bitbeast didn't attack? Curious...
Contemplating as to why the powerful phoenix had fled, Boris rose from his seat in front of the computer. Staggering slightly for a moment, the alcohol wasn't yet completely out of his system; he went to meet the bitbeast, face to face.
"It is good to see you, Black Dranzer."
The possessed Kai only tensed and hissed at the man's greeting. The bitbeast was all to aware of who the human was. And there was something niggling the phoenix at the back of its mind... Or perhaps it was Kai's mind.
"No need to be like that." Boris was far too calm, it aggravated the phoenix. "I simply want to offer you a proposal, one I'm sure you'll accept."
A growl, deep in the throat. Evidently, Black Dranzer didn't like weak humans being so sure of themselves.
Boris didn't flinch, just continued to talk in his smooth tone. If he was intimidated, he hid it well. "I know what you want, Black Dranzer. You want power, the power of other bitbeasts, pure power." His eyes glinted as the possessed body gave a half-nod in conformation, "I can help you find them, can give you whatever you need to gain that power."
Silence as Black Dranzer waited for Boris' side of the deal. Blackened eyes gave away nothing on what the bitbeast thought of the matter.
Boris had to tread carefully here, if this came out wrong... Well, it just wouldn't come out wrong. "In return, we ask very little. We only want you to help us, aid us in controlling the weaker humans, so that Biovault can take its place as the ruler."
What the bitbeast was thinking of as the deal was considered, Boris wouldn't know. He would never know that Black Dranzer was trying to work out what was wrong with the deal. He wouldn't know that Black Dranzer would suddenly got a flash of recognition, whether from the phoenix's own mind or Kai's. He wouldn't know that Black Dranzer would remember how Boris has tried to control him, control them. And he wouldn't know what it meant when the eyes of that form flashed completely black for a moment.
He just knew that, with the power only a bitbeast can ever hope to have, a wave of dark energy came at him from no where, and Black Dranzer disappeared as the energy tore his body apart. He didn't have time to scream at the sheer agony that shredded through him. And then the energy faded, leaving only blood and a mangled, unrecognizable body where he had been.
