Survival

A/N: Thanks for the two reviews. And Max might be a little OOC. So now..on with the fic!

Disclaimer: Do I own Beyblade? Well, if I did, it would be a lot better. So, no, I don't own it. I do own Osa and Jake Fitumi, though.

Kai and the others were creeping down the hallway. Actually, Kai was hobbling. So, anyway, everyone got ready for a fight, when it happened. A beyblade came right through the cement and metal hospital corridor, and slashed Max right in the face. Max was thrown back unconscious, a huge gash right in his cheek, blood running all over his face. The other three were scratched badly by the rain of cement and metal pieces. Tyson ran over to Max, but tripped over a large piece of cement. Kenny smacked his head, and ran down the corridor to find a first aid kit.

Kai was oblivious to everything around him but the yellow beyblade. He launched his own. "Get him, Dranzer!" Tyson looked up to see the huge phoenix looming above him. He cowered back in fear, and squealed something like, "I want my mommy!".

Dranzer immediately charged the blade, but all the spikes on the opposing blade then stood straight up, and the attack did nothing even if Dranzer was out. Eventually, Dranzer stopped spinning, and the other blade was still going strong Kai looked at the opposing blade. "How?.It transformed!"

Kenny came back carrying the kit, and was dressing everyone's wounds. "Looks like everyone disappeared when the explosion went off. I'd hate to see what the outside looks like. But I wonder.what blade has the force to knock someone out? The only one's I know that are like that are the White Tiger's blades."

Just as Kenny finished bandaging everyone, a deep voice called out. "My blade does." Everyone but Max, who was still out, turned to see a tall boy, with muscular arms, and a customized launcher and extended ripcord in one hand. He had dark brown hair, and blue triangles painted on his face. They were identical to Kai's. "Well, Kai, nice to see you again...sort of. I heard you've become quite the beyblader. But what I just saw. was pathetic! I thought you would be an actual challenge, but all I got was a face off! And your friend there" he said as he pointed to Max "was supposed to be you . "Jake..I knew it was you..working for government conspiracies? I never thought you would sink this low.." said Kai.

"Mercenaries gotta do what they're paid for. And I'm being paid to take all of you with me. A certain government conspiracist is paying good money for the capture of the Blade Breaker team.especially for their 5 bit beasts."

As Max started to stir, Tyson spoke up. "Hello? We only have four!"

Jake shook his head as he pointed to Kenny's laptop. "Nope. Five. Including the Dizzara."

Kenny raised his eyebrow(A/N: Which we can't see, since his eyes are invisible). "What do you want with Dizzi? All she is is an interface program. She can't fight-"

"-unless we extrapolate her from your laptop." Said Jake, as he snatched Dizzi from the Chief. At this point Max was fully awake, and saw someone he didn't recognize. Then, he remembered Kai saying to keep guard for something. He closed his eyes to look as if he were still out, and slowly reached for his Draciel and launcher.

Tyson stood up, and charged Jake in an attempt to get Dizzi back, but Jake sidestepped, and Tyson went toppling into a nurse's lounge. He ran into a chair, and flipped himself over, landing on his head, swirls in his eyes. Chief ran in to help Tyson. "Tyson! How many fingers am I holding up?" He said as he held up three.

"Chicken fingers!"

"Tyson! No-AAAAAAAAAAAH!"

Kenny ran around the nurse's lounge trying to shake Tyson off his hand.

Max had his hand around his blade and launcher, and Max was putting the blade into the shooter.

Kai was flexing his fists. "Give back Dizzi. Or else."

Something caught the corner of Jake's eye. His blade was starting to slow, so he went to pick it up. Along with Kai's Dranzer. "I'd love to stay, but I gotta go. See-"

"LET IT RIP!" yelled Max. He pulled the ripcord with all his might, and he knocked the Dranzer bit out of the blade without Jake knowing. Max cursed, and his blade returned to his hand. Jake then flat out ran, and called, "Don't think about going home, cause you don't have a home to go to! I....destroyed it! Ha!" he called as he left the corridor.

Kai just sighed, and went over pick up his bit chip. "He doesn't even know he left it behind. How pathetic."

Tyson finally stopped clamping on Chief's had, and apologized. "So what do we do now? We can't go home."

"Tyson, have you ever stopped to think your families might be gone? All of ours are! Stupid." Everyone then sat in silence for a while.

Dizzi then spoke. "I hate to admit it, but Kai is probably right. I think we should try to find Ray, and do what we can from there." Dizzi tried to get a hold of Ray, but his connection to the net had been cut off. Then, Dizzi felt something incoming. "Guys, message incoming. Origin unknown."

"Let's see."

Just then Osa appeared on Dizzi's screen. "So, you are the rest of the Blade Breakers. How quaint."

"Who are you?"

Osa just shook her head. "Heh. I won't give you that information. However, I do know all of you. Especially you, Kenny. Your blading skills are pathetic. Especially Tyson's."

"Pathetic? Excuse me?"

"You heard me right. You couldn't even stand up to Jake. Well, I just called to let you know that I have something you may want." Just then, a video of Ray trying to break out of the suspended cage played itself.

"Ray! No." groaned Max. "He was our only hope."

"Well, he's mine now, Max. Age 13. Bit Beast, Draciel, defense type. One of the four bit beasts resembling the four gods of Japanese legend." Osa laughed evilly. "You see, I know everything about you and your blade. And your friend? He's mine on one of two conditions. One: You give me your bit beasts."

"No way." Said Kai, in a stern manner.

"Two: You beat one of my lesser warriors with one of your team members. " "Hn. I guess so." He said.

"Excellent. I'll send you the coordinates and his stats. Be here in 72 hours, or else Ray will be sleeping with the piranha." Osa's face then went offline. Everyone but Kai was stunned by the turn of events. Dizzi immediately brought up the stats. Chief nearly fainted.

"Guys, come here." Said Kenny.

Everyone crowded around the laptop, and looked at the stats:

Name: Aaron Bit Beast: Zerdia Specialty Attack(s): Jaded Ring, Ring Storm, and Jadestrom Attack:2 Defense:6 Endurance:4

"..She calls this lesser?!" yelped Max. "The defense is off the scale! I'm not even as good defense-wise as him!"

"Well, we have to beat him, or Ray is dead. Where do we have to go?" asked Tyson.

"Well, Chief, your fragile psyche might not-"

"Dizzi!"

"Fine." Dizzi pulled up the exact location of Osa's home.

It was in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. On a large ledge in the mid Margate Trench.

Kenny fainted.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~ Well, how'd you like it? I'm not sure if that's the trench's real name.but I know it's the deepest in the world! R/R. Thank you and have a nice day. ^_^'
