Chapter Fourteen - Baby Bladers
"Ty-Ty," Brooklyn protested inbetween his bouts of laughter as the bigger chibi tickled him, "pwease stop." "Not till me done," Tyson remarked, who was straddling Brooklyn and had him pinned beneath his legs. Tyson continued to tickle him on either of his sides. He had found out the smaller was ticklish from seeing his older brother do the same to him. When Brooklyn could barely breathe from his giggles, Tyson stopped his torture to let the younger regain his breath. Brooklyn was panting heavily but smiling at Tyson, who returned the gesture. The cute moment was ruined when they heard a discussion between the adults in the lounge.
"Dad, I can't just drop everything for Tyson," Bruce protested as the two chibis listened under the window, "This is a very important project and I can't let it pass by me. This is an accumlation of my life's work." "I know, dude," Grandpa snapped back, "but isn't your son more important than your work? You abandoned him once, do you want to do it again? Your absence in his life scarred him deeply and I don't dig it."
Brooklyn turned to look at Tyson when he heard a sniffle. Tears were leaking out of his brown eyes and running down his cheeks. Brooklyn was going to comfort him when he heard his name mentioned. "Brooklyn is interfering with my life as well," Hiro added as said chibi teared, "and irritating but I take care of him. If I was in this situation, would you have just left me? Besides, they both look up to you and I don't think they would take your sudden departure well."
Tyson heard enough as he kicked at a rock and walked away from the window. "Daddy doesn't want me," he murmured, wiping the tears away with a hand, "he hasn't wanted me since Mama died." "Hero don't want me either," Brooklyn sobbed, wiping both of his eyes with his hands, "Daddy either. What we do wrong?" "Don't know," Tyson shrugged but then his mood lightened by a sudden thought, "but others want us. Let go visit friends."
"We can't," Brooklyn protested, "don't know way." "Me do," Tyson said as he puffed out his chest, "we can find it. They won't miss us so let's go. We could take car but it stuck so we walk." "What about Cosmo?" Brooklyn ask as Tyson grabbed his hand in his own. "Can't take him," Tyson replied, "he be all right with grandpa."
His puppy was asleep underneath the porch since his leash was tied to a railing. He had gotten out of the gates several times in the last few days and had to be secured after the neighbors complained of him getting into their garbage. Both Tyson and Brooklyn would have felt better if he could have come with them but knew it wise to leave him at home. That was when Brooklyn had a brainstorm and ran to Hiro's room. He knew Zeus was in his drawer as he retrieved his beyblade and grabbed a launcher from his desk.
That made Tyson want Dragoon and he knew where he was since he had seen grandpa with the beyblade. He went to his room and came out with the white beyblade but stopped by his room for a launcher. When they were both ready, they went back outside where Tyson opened the gate. He grabbed Brooklyn's hand in his own as they left the dojo and walked out onto the street. The two chibis were now on their own.
As his father and grandpa continued to argue, Hiro looked out the window to see the garden empty. There was no sign of Tyson or Brooklyn as he puzzled over their disappearance. The Power Wheel that they had been playing with was halfway in the koi pond as he cursed. They were suppose to be more careful with the toy and he figured that the yell he had heard earlier had come from them. They had been arguing for the past twenty minutes over his father's recent job offer. He didn't really have a right to argue since he had spent more time with their father than Tyson had.
He hadn't heard a sound from the two since the accident and figured they had went to Tyson's room for a nap. Grandpa was waving his shinai angrily at Bruce as Hiro jumped out the window to land on the ground and pull the Hummer out of the water. It looked like rain as he pulled it inside and hoped that the water had not damaged the toy. Cosmo was still tied to the porch railing as he saw the signs of a scuffle and the small footprints that led to the window. He hoped that the two hadn't overheard their conversation as he darted to Tyson's room. The door was partially open as he violently slid it across the track. The room was empty; there was no sign of either of the chibis.
He put on his shoes before he ran around the grounds for a few minutes finding no sign of either of them as he desperately looked. His chest began to tighten with panic as he got more frantic. They were gone. Brooklyn and Tyson were gone and he had no idea of where they could be. That was when he noticed that the gate was slightly open and he darted out onto the sidewalk.
He glanced in all directions but saw no sign of his little brother and boyfriend. He cursed in several languages as he darted back to the house and ran into the lounge without even taking off his shoes. "Hiro," Grandpa fumed from his lack of manners for their customs. "No time," he explained, "I can't find Tyson or Brooklyn anywhere." "What?" both men exclaimed, looking at the other and completely forgetting about the previous argument.
"I've looked all over the dojo," he continued, "I can't find them anywhere. Cosmo is still tied up to the post but they are missing. I can't find them." Hiro started to hyperventilate and panic as Bruce slapped him across the face to calm him. "Where would two chibis go?" Bruce questioned as they ran to the hall and put on their shoes to search. "I think they overheard our conversation," Hiro offered, "since their footprints are under the window. They might think they were unwanted."
"Kuso," Bruce cursed, "they obviously didn't hear all of it then. I am such a fool. My foolish priorities may endanger the safety of my sons." "We all are fools for not keeping a vigilant watch over them," Grandpa added, "we should know better by now." The three men split up in opposite directions to look for the two missing chibis, who had wandered pretty far from the dojo in a very short amount of time. They had made it to the park when it had started to rain.
Both of them were not wearing a jacket as most people ran about in panic to get home. No one seemed to notice them as little dark clouds hung over the two chibis. "Ty-Ty, me cold," Brooklyn shivered as they got drenched, "maybe we should go home." "No," Tyson replied, "dey don't appreciate us. Don't deserve us." Since the park was empty they climbed into the fort that offered some protection from the elements.
Tyson wrapped his arms around Brooklyn as he did the same to try and keep warm. The rain began to pour even harder as it dripped onto them. "Ty-Ty, me swared," Brooklyn admitted as a crash of thunder followed a streak of lightning. "Nothing to fear," Tyson reassured the younger, "we safe. Dwagoon and Zeus watch ovah us."
When Tyson said his name, he pulled his blade out of his pocket as the bit chip began to glow. The fort was kind of small but big enough for an adult or two that would be cramped as a flash of white light came from the chip and turned into a teen in front of them. He looked like an older version of Tyson except that his navy hair was shorter and spiked with white streaks. He was wearing black baggy cargo pants that hung off of his slim hips, a blue shirt with the picture of a dragon across the front along with a black coat and boots. Unlike Tyson however, he had yellow reptillian like eyes that would remind one of a snake.
His expression was serious and he radianted power. "Dwagoon," Tyson shouted, happily as he glomped the bit beast in human form. "Tyson," the deep voice greeted, "what in the world are you doing here without any type of adult supervision? You should not have left the dojo." "Dey don't want us," Tyson defended, "Daddy say so and Hero too. We burdens ta them."
"I doubt that you would ever be burdens to them," another voice added as Zeus came out of his beyblade and in an awkward and compromising position with Dragoon since the fort was too small for them, "where in Olympus name did you hear that?" Dragoon glared at Zeus as the older of the two moved himself off of the other. "From their mouths," Brooklyn added, "Hero said me irritating." "I suggest we take them home," Dragoon stated as his sentences would end in a sort of hiss, "they are not safe without the protection of the adults that care for them." "Me not go back!" Tyson demanded as his arms crossed, "let them worry." "We can not force them to do something that they do not want," Zeus lectured, "we have to obey their wishes."
"Well, let's tell Hiro where they are," Dragoon suggested, "they can not stay here exposed to the elements. They will catch their death and they need to be somewhere safe. What if one of their enemies found them in this state?" "Goes against the oaths we took to obey our bladers," Zeus advised, "can't break the oath unless you want to suffer the consequences. I did it once and I have no intention of doing so again. Besides, if anyone dares to touch Brooklyn, they will suffer my wrath. I will protect he and Tyson with my life."
"Then what do you suggest we do, old wise one," Dragoon said, sarcasticly, "I would love to hear the head god of Olympus' opinion on the matter." "We stay here for the moment," Zeus suggested, "and try to convince them to go home. That is the most I can offer." Dragoon growled as Zeus got more comfortable in the limited confines of the space. Dragoon hated to share small spaces with others especially Zeus. They may have come to a truce but he still held onto his grudge even though Dranzer had forgiven him for what happened during the tournament.
When Brooklyn started to shake from the chill in the air, Zeus pulled him into his arms and held him tightly to his chest as he wrapped his coat around him. Tyson looked at him with a look of pity as Dragoon sighed. He wasn't use to showing such displays of affection since the sacred dragon considered them a weakness. What would the other bit beasts think if they saw him acting motherly toward Tyson? Zeus gave him a disapproving look as Dragoon sighed with reluctance and hoped that the minotaur didn't tell anyone about this.
He sat back against the wall that did not have the window and pulled Tyson into his arms. He wrapped his coat around him as the little boy shivered. He wasn't shivering as much as Brooklyn was but he was warmer than he had been before. The four of them sat in silence as they listened to the rain tap against the wood. It didn't take long for the two chibi bladers to fall asleep in their bit beasts' arms.
"This is one of the worse ideas you have ever had," Dragoon growled as the rain continued to pour, "they are infants. We should just take them back to the Kinomiya dojo. It doesn't matter what they think or want. We are ancient creatures and should not be subjected to the role of babysitter. I am one of the four sacred beasts for Kami's sake."
"I am a sacred and old beast as well," Zeus reminded as his eyebrow raised in annoyance, "but I would gladly babysit my blader. Most of us did agree to the chibification spell after all. We knew the consequences of our actions." Zeus shook his head sadly since he had forgotten how boring Dragoon could be. Whereas he liked to have fun, Dragoon was quite the opposite in attitude.
His only concern was doing whatever Tyson ask when summoned and then being left alone to his solitude and studies. Zeus considered setting him up with Draciel since she was quite the party girl and maybe could lighten his mood. He needed to do something. Dragoon's distant behavior at the party the evening before proved as much. If he didn't loosen the old dragon up soon, they were going to lose him and no one would be able to get him out of his shell then.
"I don't want to go against the oaths I took as well," Dragoon finally admitted, "but they can not stay here. We should contact someone about this situation and see what the others think. Let's ask Dranzer. He is the oldest and wisest of all of us." "He would tell Kai," Zeus remarked with a frown, "and he would tell Tala and then we would have four runaways instead of two. I think it best if we just keep this to ourselves for the moment. They can't get into any trouble with us watching over them."
Meanwhile with Hiro . . . .
Hiro was beyond panicking as he ran down the sidewalk, looking in every direction for the two missing chibis and not caring at all about the rain. "Where are they?" he whispered franticly as his eyes darted in every direction except in front of him. He bumped into someone that threw the both of them to the ground. "Gomennasai," he apologized as jumped back to his feet, "I am so sorry but I'm in such a hurry-" His voice broke off when he saw who he was speaking too.
"Hiro, what is your problem?" Judy ask as he held out a hand to help his colleague up and then pick up the bags that she had dropped, "why are you panicking?" Hiro didn't want to tell her what had happened. She would definitely kill him for losing the two chibis especially Brooklyn. "I'm-" he began as he looked around but didn't see them anywhere, "we- it- Oh kuso." Judy's eyebrow raised when she heard the curse come from his mouth.
"What.has.happened?" she ground out, knowing that it had something to do with Brooklyn and Tyson. Otherwise, the bluenette would not be panicking like he was now. "Brooklyn and Tyson misunderstood a conversation that they shouldn't have heard," he said as he gulped, "and they ran away from the dojo." "What!" she stormed as Hiro actually backed away from the woman. "When will you ever learn?" she muttered with a sigh as the rage disappeared, "let me help you look for them. I'll call the others and see if I can get some more help."
She pulled out a cell phone and talked to Robert, who offered his assistance. "Robert is going to ask a few of the others," Judy informed, a few moments later, "and meet us at the dojo. You had better hope that they are all right." Hiro swallowed uneasily from her veiled threat and was reluctant to return to the dojo so soon but it did make more sense for them to regroup. Then they could make a more detailed search of the city. "Please stay safe," he whispered as he followed Judy, who thrust several bags into his hands, "and take care of each other until we find you."
Back to the chibis . . . .
After the rain had stopped and the afternoon progressed on, the foursome decided to leave the park. Brooklyn and Tyson were both getting hungry but still refused to return to the dojo. Both Zeus and Dragoon had argued with the pair until they were literally blue in the face but they refused to listen to their advice. Zeus had to admit that the two were quite stubborn as Dragoon only got more agitated with the pair. He didn't want to be responsible for them and when he had tried to forcefully take Tyson back home, it had only resulted in him getting bit and the two chibis running away from their guardian bit beasts.
Dragoon had only gotten more furious and growled while Zeus remained calm and had his hands in his pockets while smirking at the sacred dragon. "This is impossible," Dragoon snapped as they looked for the two, who had run into a crowd of people, "wait until I get my hands on them. I will spank Tyson until he can't sit for as long as I stayed trapped in my bit chip." "You are only causing a scene, my friend," Zeus advised as he saw the two dart down an alley, "will you calm down? They will return to us if you do."
They passed a pair of girls who squealled as Zeus smiled at them. "He is so cute," the one giggled as Dragoon was going to growl again but Zeus pulled him into the alley. "While we are in our avatars' forms," Zeus reminded, "we are to act like them. Tyson would not snap or growl at a fan. He would be polite and revel in his popularity."
"I am not Tyson," Dragoon growled as they stalked toward the two chibis, who were actually waiting for them and not running. "How well I know," Zeus muttered with an annoyed sigh that the dragon did not overhear. "You not gonna hit me, are ya, Dwagoon?" Tyson ask as Brooklyn was standing behind him for protection. Dragoon opened his mouth to say something but Zeus shook his head firmly. Dragoon growled again as he looked at his chibified blader. "No, I am not," he replied, "but if you bite me again, I will bite back."
"Sorwy about that," Tyson apologized as Brooklyn giggled and went back to Zeus, holding out his hand, "but can you take us to friends?" "Well techniquely they would be with an adult," Zeus stated, looking thoughtful at Dragoon, "and I believe I know the way." "Let's go then," Dragoon snapped, grabbing Tyson's hand, "the sooner that I can return to my rest the better. I am not very fond of the mortal world and prefer my bit chip to this noise. Lead the way, Zeus."
As the adults were regrouping, our runaways were walking down a typical street. Dragoon still hadn't stopped scowling at all those who dared look at him as Zeus was about to die from the laughter he was holding within from looking at the dragon. It was quite funny to see the sacred dragon making such funny faces. Tyson was complaining that his feet were hurting from all of their walking but Brooklyn didn't have such complaints since he was perched on Zeus' shoulders. It was easy to see which bit beast cared more for their blader and some might have thought it would have been Dragoon since Zeus was so fearsome and scary.
They had not gotten far when they were accousted by the same girls as before but they had brought some friends. Little did the two bit beasts know that these girls were the dreaded fangirls that Hiro had once spoke of before. Zeus was polite and smiled at the group that was getting larger by each minute that passed and not heeding Hiro's warning of to run like hell if you see a fangirl. "Brooklyn, can we have your autograph?" one of them ask, holding out a pad and pen, "you are my favorite blader." "Certainly," he replied as chibi Brooklyn shifted uncomfortably and started to open his mouth.
"Me Brooklyn," he stated as Zeus grabbed him from his shoulders and covered his mouth with a hand as the girls looked confused. "I'm sorry about that," he stated with a smile and trying to mimic his blader's behavior, "but my little brother idolizes me so much that he likes to pretend that he is me." Dragoon did the same with Tyson since he was about to protest his identityas well. "I didn't know that either of you had a little brother," one girl stated with confusion but shrugged it off. Hopefully they wouldn't remember this later.
"You are so dreamy in leather," another girl squealled, "and Tyson, your outfit is so hot too. I'm glad that you changed from wearing blue jeans and t-shirts all the time. I love the contact lenses." Dragoon glared but being bumped by Zeus made him drop the holier than thou attitude he was sporting. It didn't suit Tyson and would ruin his reputation. Zeus sent Brooklyn a glare to be quiet as he removed his hand and set the chibi down on the sidewalk so he could sign the paper.
Dragoon growled but followed the Greek god's lead since the girls were not going to relent. A few of them had tried to get close to the real Brooklyn and Tyson, who were hiding behind their bit beasts. The girls scared the two chibis and they didn't like the attention at all. Brooklyn was shaking slightly and wishing that Hiro was with them. He was even beginning to have second thoughts about leaving. He was really wanting to be in Hiro's warm and comforting embrace and then have daddy protect him from all these females that seemed to like Zeus for some odd reason.
The group of girls got larger as they stood and signed autographs. Brooklyn and Tyson had moved away from them in fear of being trampled. "Why girls so stwange?" Tyson observed at Zeus and Dragoon, "why they want a scribble on piece of paper?" "No idea," Brooklyn shrugged in confusion, "me don't understand them anyway. They weird."
When Dragoon and Zeus tried to leave, the girls got a bit hostile and defensive. One pulled at Zeus' jacket wanting a souvenir while someone grabbed the hat that Dragoon was sporting. Bit beast law prohibited the two from just disappearing into thin air before a group of mortals while in their human form so Zeus and Dragoon were stuck with the possessive fangirls, who were now threatening to riot. It seemed that they did not take the news well when Zeus mentioned having a boyfriend and not being at all interested in anyone of the opposite sex. "You can't be gay!" one girl screamed as she started to cry, "that is so wrong! You belong to me! I'm going to be Mrs. Brooklyn Kingston!"
The next thing the two chibis knew was that Dragoon and Zeus had taken off at a sprint with the fangirls in pursuit. They ran past the two chibis who backed against the wall as the group passed so they wouldn't get trampled underneath all the shoes. The two bit beasts were trying to save their own lives and had forgotten about the two chibis in the chaos. Dragoon was yelling angrily about Zeus' brilliant idea as the two small chibis watched the scene unfold.
"Wow," Brooklyn whispered as he watched the two bit beasts run down the street with a gang of fangirls hot on their heels, "me didn't know Zeus could move that fast." "Or Dwagoon," Tyson stated with admiration, "boy can he run. Me would too if those swary girls were after me like that." "Ty-Ty," Brooklyn whimpered as they disappeared from sight, "what we do now? We alone." "Follow me," Tyson stated, wrapping an arm around the younger, "me protect you." The two chibis then started to walk in the opposite direction away from the screaming fan girls and two terrified bit beasts.
Meanwhile the adults had regrouped and had split into pairs to search the city for the two missing chibis. Fortunately, Robert, Spencer, Bryan, Lei and Rick had managed to sneak away from the house without Kai knowing what had happened to Brooklyn and Tyson. Well, he probably wouldn't have cared about Tyson but he would have freaked over Brooklyn disappearing and would have demanded that he be allowed to go with them. They split into pairs to comb the streets; Bryan & Spencer, Robert & Lei, Judy & Bruce while Rick set off on his own leaving Hiro with Grandpa. Well, it could have been worse for Hiro; he could have been stuck with Judy.
Each pair had a cell phone in case they saw anything and it was Hiro and Grandpa, who first saw an unusual sight. Hiro had tried talking to Zeus but Metal Driger couldn't find him for some odd reason that was about to be explained. He had noticed on his return to the dojo that the blade was missing after he had went to change his clothing after getting drenched in the downpour. A brief check of grandpa's room also showed that Dragoon was gone so wherever the two chibis were, they had their bit beasts with them. That comforted the adults somewhat knowing that the two weren't alone and had hoped that Zeus and Dragoon would bring them back safely.
"I will never forgive myself if something happens to them," Hiro muttered as they walked down the street and looking in every direction, "how could I let this happen?" "The little dudes will be okay," Grandpa tried to reassure, "I just know it. Their guardians are with them." All of a sudden the ground began to shake as everyone thought it was an earthquake. They knew it was not when all eyes turned to the street where a cloud of dust could be seen from a distance.
"What is that?" Hiro ask with confusion. "It looks like a stampede," Grandpa noted as the dust cloud got closer and turned into a group of females with two very familiar faces at the front. "SAVE ME!" Zeus screamed as he ran by with Dragoon right on his heels, screaming and pleading for his life as well. Hiro and Grandpa just watched the two bit beasts pass by with the group of fangirls hot on their heels and sweatdropped. "You were saying, grandpa," Hiro said, sarcasticly, pulling out his cell phone to alert the others of this situation.
"I didn't know that they had that much of a following among the girls," Grandpa added, making Hiro sweatdrop even more, "I knew Kai and Rei were popular but I didn't think that Brooklyn and Tyson were. I'm guessing the dude in Tyson's form was Dragoon right?" Hiro nodded as he spoke to his father, who burst into laughter from the situation as Judy had to be handed the phone. It wasn't long before they too saw the stampede of fangirls in pursuit of the two bit beasts. Judy couldn't help but use her camera phone to take pictures since everyone had to see the two most powerful bit beasts in the world running from a group of girls.
Now, back to Tyson and Brooklyn. The two little chibis were hungry and tired. Their brief nap had helped but their clothes were still damp and it was getting late. They hadn't eaten anything since lunch and had missed their afternoon snack. They were wandering the alleys since the two were hopelessly lost. They found no comfort except in each other since their bit beasts had abandoned them to fight off the hordes of fangirls.
They stumbled across an unexpected sight as the sound of a beyblade caught their attention. There was a group of children older than them blading in an old dish in one of the alleys. Brooklyn's whimper caught their attention as he tried to hide behind Tyson but stumbled in the process as his beyblade fell out of his pocket. "Nice blade, kid," the tallest of the four said as he saw the blade, "let's have a battle? If you win, you get my blade but if I win, then I take yours?"
"No," Brooklyn whispered, grabbing Zeus and shaking his head no, "don't wanna." "Why does a baby like you have such a nice blade?" one of the other children ask, who had a ratlike face, "you are too young to beyblade." "No he not!" Tyson defended, "me have one too." He made the mistake of pulling Dragoon MS from his pocket as the other children oohed and awed over it. "I never seen one like that, Akito," the ratface boy stated, "you can beat these babies easily."
"Me not a baby," Tyson snapped with a glare, "me can bwade bettah than any of you." "Why don't you put your blade where your mouth is, baby blader?" the one named Akito remarked, "and see if you are worthy of such a beyblade. If you can beat me, I will let the two of you go unharmed. I'll ever allow your little baby friend to blade with you against me. I bet even the two of you can't beat me."
"You on," Tyson snarled, grabbing Brooklyn's hand. "No," Brooklyn whispered as he tried to pull away from him, "don't make me, Ty-Ty. Me don't wanna bwade." "We have too," Tyson informed, sounding quite grown up for a moment, "our honor and reputation at stake. It will be easy ta beat him."
Brooklyn jerked away and shook his head no. Tears started to flow down his cheeks as Tyson pulled back to give him some room and not understanding why his adopted brother was acting like this. "Why don'tcha wanna bwade?" Tyson inquired, trying to calm the younger. "Me hurt them," Brooklyn whispered, "then no one wanna pway with me. Me always win."
"Is the little bitty baby blader scared?" one of the older kids taunted, "he looks like he is going to wet his pants at any moment." The older children laughed at Brooklyn. "SHUT UP!" Tyson roared as the bully bladers stopped laughing from the rage and anger in his voice, "JUST SHUT UP! You have no idea what you talking about and no one make fun of Brookie in front of me." He stood in a defensive posture like Kai had at the park to protect Brooklyn, who he considered as a younger brother. It seemed that Tyson was just as protective of Brooklyn as Kai and Tala were.
Brooklyn swallowed nervously as the older children taunted them more. Tyson had stood up for him and he couldn't let him down. He was protecting him from the bullies that reminded him of those that had hurt him in the park. He would do anything for Kai to be beside of him but Tyson was proving to be just as brave and fearless as the dual-hair. He anguished over his decision for a moment before he stopped crying and tried to calm Tyson.
"We bwade against you," he said, quite clearly, "but you be sorwy." "Yeah, right," Akito remarked, "like you two babies can beat me. That will only happen when pigs fly like your friend, Porky." He was motioning at Tyson as Brooklyn frowned. It wasn't nice to call others names as he pulled his blade back out of his pocket. He didn't want to do this but somehow he knew he could blade.
He pulled out the launcher and Zeus clicked into place as Tyson did the same. The empty bit chip made him nervous. Could they actually win without their bit beasts? Akito grinned and thought he had all ready won this match. His beyblade was a lime green as they stood on opposite sides of the dish.
"3, 2, 1 - LET IT RIP!" the rat-faced boy yelled as they launched at the same time. Both Zeus and Dragoon wobbled when they landed but at least the blades had landed in the dish as Brooklyn sighed with relief. For some odd reason, he felt confident. It was like a part of him had awoke after a deep sleep when his beyblade had hit the dish. He knew he could blade and win. Tyson made the first move as he sent Dragoon's blade on the attack while his spinned in the place where it had landed.
Tyson missed the other blade as he moved out of the way before he could slam him. "Is that all you got?" Akito taunted as the other boys jeered, "then you might as well say bye-bye to your blades." He attacked Tyson and nearly sent him out of the dish. Tyson growled and sent his on the attack again but Brooklyn intercepted. The resultingshockwave from the impact made everyone's skin tingle and alerted someone else to their battle.
None of them noticed as a tall figure came running down the alley or that he pulled out a launcher. They did hear the shout of "LET IT RIP!" as a tan blade came flying through the air and landed in the dish. It completely knocked out the other three blades as the chibis all turned to see Rick standing there. He had a grin on his face since he had a feeling of where the two missing chibis would end up. "That not fair," Akito stormed as he picked up his now damaged beyblade, "that was my battle. You had no right to interfere."
"I suggest you leave," Rick remarked with a cocky grin, "or there will be nothing left of your beyblade when I am through. It is wrong for you to challenge little kids such as these two to blade. One of them could have been severely injuried and it would have been all your fault." Since Rick was much bigger and imposing, the bey gang decided it was better if they left. "Hi Rick," Tyson greeted with a smile as they both picked up their blades, "what you want?"
"Everyone is looking for the two of you," he snapped, glaring at the two, "everyone is worried sick over your disappearance and you had better be glad that I arrived to stop this match before you got hurt or did something stupid." "No they not," Tyson retorted, "daddy and the others don't care that we gone. We burdens ta them." Rick didn't have anymore luck reasoning with the two chibis than Zeus and Dragoon did. He wasn't a bit beast however and didn't have to abide by their rules. He picked up his blade, grabbed Tyson by the arm and lifted Brooklyn into his other.
Brooklyn squirmed but could not get out of his grasp as Tyson dug in his heels but was dragged along anyhow. It was a good thing that grandpa and Hiro were near or otherwise someone would have called the police, thinking that Rick was trying to abduct the two from the way they were fighting him. "Thank Kami," Hiro exclaimed as he saw Rick with Tyson and Brooklyn but his relief soon turned to fury, "where have the two of you been? You had me worried sick from your disappearance. You know better than to leave the house like that."
Rick had put Brooklyn down by then as they stood in front of an angry Hiro and grandpa with the others on their way, courtesy of a call from Rick. "Why you care?" Tyson demanded with his hands on his hips, "you and daddy don't want us. Grandpa the only one who loves us." "Where did you hear such nonsense?" Grandpa ask, waving his shinai, "we all care about you, little dude." "You were talking," Brooklyn added quietly, "Hero said me irritating."
"Then you obviously didn't hear what I said after that, tenshi," Hiro stated, sqautting down to his level, "you have interfered with my life and are irritating at times but I enjoy every second that I spend with you. I wouldn't trade the time we spend together for anything else in the whole entire world. Nothing is as important to me as you." "Weally," Brooklyn replied as Bruce appeared yelling, "TYSON!" with Judy right behind him. He lifted Tyson into his arms as he started to apologize for what he said and chastise Tyson for running away at the same time.
"Me sorwy," Brooklyn apologized as he glomped Hiro, who gladly lifted him into his arms, "won't do it again." "You had better not," Hiro fumed, "and for this stunt, no candy or playing with the Hummer for two days." Brooklyn was about to protest that wasn't fair but as his sea foam green eyes looked into Hiro's, he decided not too. He knew Hiro was right as he hugged him tightly. He was just glad to be safely in his Hiro's arms once again.
As Judy was thanking Rick for finding them and talking with Robert, Lei, Bryan and Spencer, two other teens came running toward them. They looked worse for wear as their attention focused on Tyson and Brooklyn. "I think we finally lost them," Zeus exclaimed, panting heavily but you could hear a squeal in the distance as the two paled, "where is my blade? I am never coming out of my bit chip ever again."
"I did warn you," Hiro smirked as he got a good look at the poor bit beasts. Their clothing was torn and they looked exhausted from the experience. "Tyson," Dragoon snapped, looking at his blader, who pulled his blade from his pocket, "hurry up." In a flash of white, Dragoon disappeared into his bit chip as Zeus was jumping up and down waiting for Brooklyn to pull out his own blade. As Brooklyn fumbled with trying to get it out of his pocket, the bit beast got more frantic as Hiro decided to give Zeus a break and found the blade himself.
"Don't wake me for a thousand years," he warned with a glare as some of the other bladers laughed and in a purple flash, he was back in his bit chip as well. When they heard another scream, the group decided it was best to head home. They definitely didn't want to be attacked by rampaging fangirls, who were probably foaming at the mouth from losing the objects of their crushes. "Zeus run weally fast," Brooklyn remarked as they walked away from the disturbance, "me don't blame him. Those girls scarier than even Hilwary."
"You don't know the half of it, tenshi," Hiro added, thinking about all the times teen Brooklyn had been accousted by fangirls, "a word of advice though. It would be wise to never wear leather again." "Oway," he replied, looking thoughtful but not understanding completely, "me never wear leather. What that anyway?" Hiro chuckled from his innocence and kissed him on the cheek that made Brooklyn squeal with laughter. Everything was right with the world again but this was only a typical day in the life of the chibi beybladers.
