"That's the one? THAT'S the one you couldn't beat?" Leena shrieked,
pointing to Riri. "I could have at least blasted her Zoid open with one
shot!" She demanded angrily, one finger pointed the Brad, while Bit held
her back gently. Riri turned to the direction of the team, whom were all
staring at her. Riri saw Leena's scowl, and walked over to her; a graceful,
sweeping walk. Leena stared at the girl who was about her age; beautiful,
graceful, and yet, a little mysterious, something that Leena couldn't put a
finger on. Riri lifted her hand and brought it under Leena's chin, tilting
her face so Leena was forced to look into those eyes; warm, but somehow
murderous and cold.
"You dare to mock me?" Riri softly asked, peering into Leena's fiery magenta eyes. "I'll make you regret that; how about a Zoid battle, one-on- one? Loser gets to bow down in front of the winner. I'll contact you later."
"Oh and," Riri added, turning around and facing the rest of the crowd. "You'll be wise to stay away from Riri Chan, master of the Zoid pilots! Follow me, and I'll see to your deaths!" Hesitantly, the crowd parted uneasily, stealing glances at Riri Chan. They were afraid, but Leena was facing Riri (or rather, her BACK) with vengeance and gritting her teeth, shaking with fury. Jamie was busy staring after Riri; his jaw lowered, his eyes as wide as saucers. "Something wrong Jamie?" Doc asked, and suddenly Jamie noticed that the rest of the Blitz team were staring at him~ how embarrassing! Jamie shook his head apologetically, and smiled.
"Nothing's wrong," he responded, still shaking his head (and making his spiky hair waggle teasingly) as he looked after the girl with the black cloak. "Everything's fine."
~*~* The next morning.*~*~
"Doc, it looks like Riri kept to her promise. We have a battle with her today, at two o' clock pm today." Jamie stated, looking over the black invitation card.
"You mean to say that witch has the guts to fight us?" Leena crowed, angry. "Well, then, BRING IT ON!"
"Shh, Leena please," Bit said, trying to calm his girlfriend down. Leena could easily be irritated and provoked, because of her hot temper. Finally, after a while, when Leena calmed down, Doc continued. He was used to this, being Leena's dad.
"Anyways, the battle is specifically for Leena and Riri only. A one-one-one battle. Leena, I think you should pilot the Gun Sniper instead of the Dibison. If we can get there early and set up, you can get a great vantage point."
"Copy that, Dad," Leena remarked, and the rest of the team returned their attention to the breakfast before them.
~*~* ~*~*
Riri Chan had once again demolished a Class S Zoid. It was only noon, too. She was doing this for practice on the Blitz team today. Riri didn't know that the Blitz team was easier than they looked; she thought they were hardcore and thus, all the more better for opponents! Epps jumped from the Saber Tiger, his black tail swishing this way and that. Gazing at the Elephander with its broken circuits, demobilized parts, and the blasted sides, Epps gave a growl; a growl full of spite at the other team. Hearing this, Riri snickered.
"If the Elephander is in a wreck, the Blitz team won't be much to be against either," Riri concluded, and walked to her Saber Tiger. "What a disappointing thought."
~*~* 2:00 p.m. *~*~
"Where is she, dad?" Leena said, scanning the reserved battlefield. This was Riri's own battlefield, and it was unlike any they had ever seen. A high cliff, thick forests, large plains, meadows, and grasses made up the large battlefield.
"The area around a 20 mile radius is a designated Zoid battlefield. Riri vs. the Blitz team, ready fight!" Kong! The battle was on.
In the thick forest, Riri saw the Gun Sniper; perched on the cliff in a snipe mode, it was an easy target. She would have to play around with her.
"Gah, WHERE is that witch?" Leena murmured, still scanning. Spying a red spot in the forest, she said, "Aha!" and fired a shot.
Ping! The bullet just missed Riri's Zoid. "Grrr, I wasn't ready!" She growled, and moved into a more dense forest. This was time to play rough now. She burst out the forest, making a wide turn. Instantly, Leena turned off the snipe mode and back into her regular mode. "Haha," Leena said, "I got you now!"
"Oh no you don't!!!!" Riri yelled angrily, and shifted her Tiger to the cliff. She knew the land well; it was hers, after all. The end of the cliff had a sloping side to it; and it reached all the way to ground level too. That's how Leena got up the cliff in the first place. Riri's Tiger was now at the base of the cliff, but Leena thought Riri ran around the cliff to the forest again, so she was too busy scanning the forest to pay attention to the base. Until.
"You dare to mock me?" Riri softly asked, peering into Leena's fiery magenta eyes. "I'll make you regret that; how about a Zoid battle, one-on- one? Loser gets to bow down in front of the winner. I'll contact you later."
