Me: It looks like the Forest of athena arc is going to be longer than I thought. I have to do a filler chapter.

Let's get on with the story. I don't own MFB. All OCs belong to their respective owners.

Chapter 37 The forest of Athena

(Greece)

Rosalina walked down the streets of Athens. It had been two months since Aphrodite had brought her to Olympus inc and they had decide now was the time for her to attempt the Forest of Athena tournament in Athens, Greece. Rosalina was supposed to meet up with Athena and Dionysus by the gates. Unfortunately, she had a problem.

How hard is it to find this place? I've been walking for and hour and haven't seen Athena or Dionysus. Rosalina thought as she continued walking.

It was then that she noticed she was being followed. Three silver hunters stood behind her, their launchers in their hands. Rosalina took out her own launcher and aimed it at the group.

"I told you she would notice us if we kept following her," one of them stated.

"Not that it matters anyways. She'll still lose her points when she loses," another pointed out.

Before Rosalina could grab her bey, a voice called out. "I'll battle you three."

The silver hunters turned to see a young girl with red hair and honey colored highlights standing behind them. She wore a pair of red shorts, an orange T-shirt with a red maple leaf on the front, and brown beybelt, and a pair of red shoes. Around her neck was a necklace with a maple leaf charm.

"So you want to lose your points first. Alright then, Let it rip!" The three point hunters launched their beys at the girl.

"A bad move on your part. I won't even have to use Pheonix's special move," The girl stated. Her bey collided with the other beys, sending the three beys flying.

"Whoa! She's tough!" Th first silver hunter said before running, the other two following him.

"We won't forget this!" one of the three yelled.

The girl recalled her bey and turned to Rosalina. "Are you okay?" she asked.

Rosalina nodded. "Thanks. I was heading to the forest of Athena tournament when I got lost. I'm Rosalina by the way," she stated.

"May Rosethorn. I'm heading to the same tournament. Follow me," May stated.

(At the tournament gate)

"So this is where we're competing? Kinda lame," Kyoya stated.

"Hey, I'm into tournaments with the names of people from mythology so shut up!" Valentine yelled.

"Hey you two. Calm down," Ranmaru stated.

"Who put you in charge?" Kyoya growled, earning a kick to the head. "You need to settle down mister! Ranmaru's tougher than you and I know it!" Platina stated.

Kyoya growled before walking away. "Whatever. I don't need to hold back to defeat anyone in my way," he stated.

Valentine sighed before looking forward. Her eyes widened as she saw Rosalina standing around with several other people. "Rosalina!" she called out.

Rosalina turned and smiled as Valentine, Ranmaru, Platina, and several other golden knights walked over. "It's good to see you're doing well!" Valentine stated.

"Same to you Valentine. These are my friend May, Athena, Dionysus, and Hades," Rosalina stated as she introduce the group.

Ranmaru's eyes seemed to widen as he looked at Hades. The man's eyes and hair seemed familar to him, but in a strange way. The man seemed to have the same reaction.

"It's a pleasure to meet you," Hades said as he shook Ranmaru's hand.

"Uh yeah." Why does he look so much like our father? Ranmaru thought.

"Rosalina, you and the others should get ready for the tournament," Athena stated.

Before Rosalina could reply, a flash of red lightning struck the ground, sending several people flying in the process. "What in the world?!" asked Athena.

"No way! It can't be!" Ranmaru stated as he took off into the crowd, the others following him.

"What is it Ranmaru?" Rosalina asked.

Ranmaru and the others gasped as the reached the spot where the lightning struck. A group of three people stood in the spot, a ten year old boy, a teen who's face was covered in a cloak, and a teenager who looked familiar to the group.

"I was right," Ranmaru stated, "It is you!"

Ryuga looked up at Ranmaru and gave the boy a smirk. "Well, Rago's brother. How's that younger brother of yours?" he asked.

Ranmaru aimed his launcher at Ryuga, but a hand stopped him. He turned to see Kana rushing past him and towards Ryuga.

"Is it really you Ryuga?" she asked, uncertainty in her voice. The L-drago Blader nodded as Kana hugged him, his eyes actually softening for once. The other golden knights were stunned as they continued watching the scene in front of them.

"Who knew Ryuga had a heart?" Kyoya stated. The others shrugged.

"Excuse me! Can I please have your attention?"

Everyone looked up to see Athena standing on a stage in front of them. "Thank you. My name is Athena and I'm a representative of Olympus Inc, a company that assist bladers across the world. Today I'll be explaining the rules of the tournament. There are scrolls that hold riddles on Greek, roman, and Egyptian mythology. When two or more bladers meet where the scrolls are, they must battle until there is a single victor. The two with the most bladers at midnight will battle at the top of the mountain," Athena explained.

"I get it. Even if you lose you'll still be able to get the scrolls," Kyoya stated.

"Is everyone ready? If so the begin!" Athena called out. The bladers around everyone began running towards the forest.

"Let's get going before the scrolls are taken," Ranmaru stated.

Rosalina watched as the other bladers left, until there was only her and Ryuga's group remaining. Ryuga turned to his hooded companion. "I'll leave you to do what you want," Ryuga said as he walked away, "Come on Sakyo."

"Coming Sensei!" Sakyo yelled as he followed Ryuga.

The two bladers watched the dragon bladers leave. The hooded blader turned to Rosalina. "I'll wait for you at the scroll of Artemis Rosalina," he stated.

Rosalina gasped. "How did you know my name?" she asked.

The hooded blader turned to leave. "Our destinies were tied to stop Nemesis. Every golden knight has a role to play, good or evil," He said as he started to leave.

Rosalina watched the blader leave. "Dynamis..." she whispered.

Athena, Hades, and Dionysus watched the scene below. "It seems that Zeus' son was with Ryuga the whole time," Dionysus said as he turned to Hades, "Is something wrong?"

Hades shook his head, a small, sad smile on his lips. "It's nothing," he stated.

Ranmaru's grown up now...

Me: This chapter could've been better. Hopefully the next one will involve some battles, Including Ryuga kicking Kyoya's butt (Again). Anyways, I have the results of my contest! Since Shadowritergirl was was the only one who sent in a contest entry, she won the contest! I'll send the OC form as soon as I can.

That's all for this chapter. Till next chapter, this is Warrior signing out!
