"Push him ba-WHOP!" Tyson began, before a wave sent his platform for a loop. Michael gulped as his own footing rocked.

"What kind of moron designed this anyway?!" The youth demanded.

"So give us the low down AJ!" Brad called, once more from his anonymous place.

"Well, so far, Max won his round against Emily, Ray lost his against Eddy, and now we're tied and waiting for the results of the battle between Tyson and Michael. Both are giving it their all! Tyson regained his balance, then grinned.

"Go Dragoon!!" His blade flew towards Michael's, the two clashed, Dragoon roared as Trygle knocked him in the stomach, the dragon quickly wrapped it's claws around Trygle's wings and sent him flying up. Then followed after, and finished Michael with a headbutt, his blade went careening out of the stadium, right for the water. Tyson and Michael paled, if the blade was knocked into the water . . . . . then Trygle would-

KER-SPLASH!

Michael blanched. Tyson gasped.

"I trust you'll be wanting this back?" Tyler asked, his smirk was purely evil. He was standing on . . . . . on the water. Michael's blade in his hand. The entire stadium had gone deadly quiet. Tyler shrugged and tossed the blade back at Tyson with a careless toss. His eyes were a glowing red.

"By the way." He commented as he turned around.

"What?" Tyson demanded quietly. Tyler laughed as he walked off, still on the water.

"You might want to visit your friend Robert. He was my opponent. . . . . . . . . he's in the hospital." Tyson nearly fell off. Michael paled.

"Robert . . . ." Max whispered, his face deadly pale. Ray dashed up to Tyler who was now on solid ground. His hand was fisted, his face in fury.

"You BA- URK!" Ray suddenly felt searing pain in his stomach. Collapsing six feet away from Tyler, the youth turned to look at him.

"Don't try that again Ray. Or you'll find the results quite different and more drastic." Tyler turned away, leaving the stunned Bladebreakers, and the one who was most stunned, was Kai. How had he brought Ray down . . . . . . without even touching him?

"We're dropping out."

"WHAT??" Tyson screamed.

"We have no choice, Robert is down, and Johnny isn't doing to good either." Oliver said motioning to his friend. Tyson looked at Robert, his face was covered in bandages, his hand wrapped heavily in white linen, Johnny looked like a pin cushion, there were needles in his arm and his forehead was wrapped heavily in bandages.

"What happened?" Kenny whispered horrified. Anreikai sighed heavily.

"The rest of that team played honorably, and fairly. But Tyler . . ."

"It was like fighting a god." Oliver whispered. "His power was incredible, nothing Robert did could stop him, it seemed that every time Robert pushed him back one step, he gained three and was more powerful then ever!" Tyson paled. If Tyler was that strong, how could they beat him? Kai was thinking the exact same thing.

"Then, Tyler's attack, I'm not sure what happened but . . . . suddenly, his blade flared red, and, there was this string around Robert's wrist, and Tyler's too!" Oliver declared. "And it seemed to be leading to the blades, Robert could feel it and all, but he couldn't get if off. Then, when Tyler attacked Griffolyon, I'm not quite sure . . . . . he attacked Griffolyon in the stomach, then suddenly Robert went white and clutched his stomach." Anreikai nodded.

"Then, Tyler said that whatever Robert's bitbeast feels, he'll feel too. But it also worked the other way, cause when Robert attacked Tyler's blade, Tyler flinched and grabbed his arm, I could see it was red underneath, as if he'd just been hit there." Oliver looked down.

"I remember his team, especially the white haired kid, they were all yelling at him to stop, but he wouldn't listen."

"More like couldn't." Anreikai broke in, everyone looked at him.

"What?" Kai demanded.

"I'm serious, I saw something, while Robert was down, I don't know, it was an expression on Tyler's face, like realization of what he was doing, then he looked at me right in the eye, like he was begging for help." Anreikai then shivered. "Then it turned into the most evil of evil looks, and he went back to trashing Robert."

"And where does Johnny being thrashed into oblivion come in?" Kai snapped. Anreikai looked at him appalled.

"Well good morning to you sunshine." He said sarcastically.

"Answer." Kai snapped. Oliver sighed.

"Robert was down, and Tyler was about to launch a final attack, and Johnny ran up, I'd never seen him do anything like that before, he ripped the chord off of Robert's wrist, but his hand was still connected to it when Tyler attacked, the result, Johnny received the attack at full blown rage." Oliver shook his head sadly. Tyson scowled.

"Tyler is going to pay."

'I promise.' Kai thought echoing Tyson's threat.

~~~

"So what of the Majestics dropping out huh Brad?"

"Well, after seeing yesterday's hourly trashing, I'd say they have a good reason."

"No kidding."

"Okay then, the next battles have been decided!!" Jazzman announced.

Bladebreakers vs. White tigers

Tsunami vs. Tyrants

All Starz vs. Slayers

Black Falcons vs. No game

"And today's matches will all be held in the movie theater! Silver City!!" Jazzman announced.

~~~

"Hey, not bad. Anyone up for some popcorn?" Max joked lightly as he stood around the dish on the main floor. Ray shrugged.

"Sure, but I'm worried about that thing over our heads." He said and pointed up. A red dragon stood was suspended on the roof. Tyson looked up, choked on his popcorn, then proceeded to hide behind the nearest available person. Looking up, the teen choked yet again.

"Well Tyson, since we don't have a match, we'll be watching yours, hope you don't mind." Tyler said calmly, he was smiling, not an evil grin, but one of pure good sportsmanship. Tyson blinked in surprise. Tyler was . . . . . . being friendly? What was up with that? Suddenly Lessa walked by, as did Striker and Kurai. Lessa and Striker waved to them grinning, Kurai however . . . . . . he was frowning.

"Hey Kurai!" Tyson called. Kurai just smirked at them.

"Don't lose, I want the chance to rip apart your blade myself." He hissed, then walked off. Kai stared at him, wait a moment, that usually aura of power that he usually felt around Tyler had relocated to Kurai. But what was different about the two?

~~~

"You're slipping Lee!" Ray taunted.

"Speak for yourself Ray!" Lee teased right back.

"C'mon Ray!!" Tyson cheered.

"You can do it buddy!!" The score was two nothing, Max against Mariah and Tyson against Kevin, both had won, and now it was Ray's turn. Needless to say, Ray was winning.

"C'mon Ray! Go Lee!!" Mariah called. Kevin glared at her.

"Whose side are you on?!" He demanded. Mariah grinned.

"Normally ours, but since we don't have a chance of winning anymore, I'm cheering for both." Kevin stared, then shrugged.

"Works for me I guess." Gary simply shrugged and shook his head. Ray pushed Lee back slowly, then, all of a sudden

"Falcon claw attack!!" Ray screamed. His blade flared with a somewhat white and green aura and bashed Lee out of the stadium. Lee shook his head.

"Once again, I am defeated." He laughed and shook his friend's hand. Ray handed him Galeon, Mariah smiled.

"Oh well. A happy ending I suppose."

~~~

"So Tyson wins, and the Bladebreakers advance." Kurai whispered softly. Tyler suddenly turned to him.

"Hey Kurai? Can I have Falcon back? Sorry, I forgot I gave him to you when I was tying my shoe on." Kurai blinked at him in surprise, then took Falcon out of his pocket and gave it to Tyler.

"No problem." He said in an instantly cheerful voice. Tyler gripped the blade, and something happened, he didn't know how to say it, but it felt like something hot went firing through his veins, the next moment, Tyler was smirking at the Bladebreakers, and Kurai was staring at them worried. Lessa and Striker saw all this.

"I think I've finally discovered what makes them this way." Lessa hissed to Striker. Striker nodded.

"It's that bit." Kurai shivered. Not realizing what they had just discovered. It seemed, that Falcon, Black Dranzer, had a will of it's own.
