29 - The hunters and the hunted
The four bladers stood glaring at their opposition. Tala and Sally vs Raul and Julia. Kai sat watching carefully, watching Sally mainly. "you and your one track mind" said the voice in his head. "Piss off I'm trying to concentrate" Kai replied to his schizophrenic friend. "Fine I'll be back though" came the reply. "great" Kai said internally.
"blades ready ?" asked the DJ. The teens all raised their launcher's without a word. Tala caught his sister's eye and she nodded the plan was set. "3 2 1 let it rip !" they all called. They all pulled their rip cords in unison, blades crashing in mid air. The arena filled with the sounds of crunching plastic and grinding metal. Sparks flew out in a technicolor blaze. Then they flew apart gain both teams were testing each other.
Black followed white as Tala and Sally's weapons circled around the dish. Then without a word from the owners the blades moved into attack. Tala's wolborg sending up ice crystals behind it a white wolf erupted out the blade and it made its way straight for Julia's yellow blade snarling viciously. "thunder pegasus attack" the girl cried and her horse bit beast appeared sending sparks at wolborg pushing it back.
"Ive got your back bro" Sally grinned, he little black blade dove in front of his. It stood its ground as the storm advanced. Julia and Sally's beyblades smashed into each other and the smirk that had been on Julia's face disappeared. Locotta didn't budge it kept her away from Tala and wolborg. Sally smiled "No one touches my brother" Sally growled.
"I'm coming sis" Raul called. His blue blade became surrounded in flames and his flaming pegasus appeared, charging at sally's blade at full force. "Not so fast" Tala snarled, wolborg snarled with him. They would defend their pack sister. His blade flew at Raul's causing it to crash into his sister's blade then the white blade raced down to join its black companion. The two stood close, ice particles and embers danced about them.
Kai allowed himself a smile "wolfs" he muttered. Like a alpha wolf watching over its pack, Tala watched over his little sister. The two worked well together Tala's strength and aggression with Sally's nimbleness and clever strategies. It was like they were two sides of a coin. Fire and ice. yin and yang. Black and white. Kai smiled again the battle was already over. Raul and Julia had already lost.
The two red headed siblings Looked at each other and nodded, their prey was now in the right place. "Locotta come on out" Sally order and her black fire wolf erupted from the blade, it and wolborg howled as their Master's unleashed the ultimate combo attack. "sky fire" ally yelled, " wolborg follow him and use icicle assault" Tala cried.
The smaller black blade was consumed in blue fire as it jumped into the air its bit beast gave a savage cry. Wolborg followed Locotta in its display now Sally was the alpha wolf. The air in the stadium fluctuated with hot and cold flashes. Fire and ice rained down on the opposing blades followed by a huge explosion as the four of them meet. "whoa" yelled the DJ as the audience screamed for more but as the dust settled it was apparent that they would be no more. In the centre of the dish were still four blades but only two were still spinning, a white blade stood in the middle still crating sparkling ice clouds while a smaller black blade danced around it playfully.
Kai who had closed his eyes a while back opened them. There was nothing more to see in terms of a battle but he could feel her happiness at winning. Sally beamed and laughed as her blade still raced wildly about the dish. Tala was laughing to, Kai couldn't help but be amazed at how much Sally had changed their team. His purple eyes softened, tonight he was going to find out the truth about why she had ever left. Tonight he would spend another night with Sally. He Saw Ray waving at Sally again "and tomorrow I'm going to show that bloody cat and Sally who's the better blader around here" the boy growled. "You know she doesn't even like him that way don't you ?" said the voice it was back just like it said it would be. Kai argued with it in his head, still watching his girl.
Up in the crowd hidden in a dark corner someone else watched Sally and her man had dirty brown hair and dark almost black eyes. No one dared sit near this imposing man, he reeked of alcohol and looked like he was spurring for a fight. He watched as the two laughed and messed about not a care in the world. He was about to change that. John would have to change that. All he needed was to get them alone, at least one of them that bastard child.
