CHAPTER 1: NOT SO WARM REUNION

Footsteps echoed in the corridors of the cold abbey. The blade glinted in the walker's hand as it caught the lights from above. A smile played on the corner of her lips as opened the door quietly, she was never one for loud and dramatic entrances, and she was like one with the shadows.

She stepped into a dark room with a large screen that belonged to a computer that was half its size. The tall man dressed in large robes and a headdress turned as she approached him.

"You asked to see me Boris?" the girl asked sweetly.

"Why yes Haley. Mr. Voltaire wants to have a word with you." Said Boris, all businesslike.

Haley shrugged and looked at the large monitor as Boris exited the room, closing the door with a loud clang.

"Good evening Mr. Voltaire." Said Haley turning to the old man on the monitor sweetly with barely a trace of mock in her voice.

"Same to you Ms. Miyaki." Said Voltaire, his voice echoing in the stone room. "As you may have known in advance, Kai is in the abbey."

She nodded with a mischievous smile.

"My grandson might be a strong blader but you have proved in earlier circumstances that you were even better than he was. After all, you are the only female that we've ever taken in and you came out at the top of your class. But it seems that now that he is in control of Black Dranzer you two might just be equally matched."

Haley stood still as a statue, having a challenge such as Kai was worth listening to. "And what you want sir is that. you want me to battle Kai?"

"Precisely." Voltaire nodded and chuckled darkly. "This would prove to be an interesting experiment. And just think, you will also have the satisfaction of knowing that you, my dear, are the best blader in the world."

"Indeed Sir." Haley laughed under her breath and shifted her weight to one leg. This was making her restless. "So, shall I go to the courts right away?"

Voltaire nodded on the screen.

Haley turned and left the room.

As she got closer to the court, she heard the whizzing noise that she guessed must be the Black Dranzer. This is going to be a piece of cake. She thought to herself, but she also couldn't help but wonder what would happen if she lost? After all she is up against one of the most powerful blades in the world. She looked down at her own blade, called Luna, a light-blue and silver blade that has never lost. She hoped this wasn't where her continuous winning streak ended.

Now here's where she wanted the dramatic entrance.

Haley threw open the doors to the court and stayed at where she was. She saw a final spark in the dish as the whole place went silent and also the heavily built silhouette of her opponent as he stretched his right hand in front of him and caught the flying blade. Then he turned towards the doors.

"Who's there?"

To many, his voice showed no trace of fear, only boldness. But Haley knew him better than anyone and she knew that this was the way he made himself feel brave when he was scared.

She stepped silently out of the shadows that concealed her, and watched with glee as his little frown became a look of total surprise. She stopped a metre away from him and smiled, her eyes glinting mischievously.

"Nice to see you again Kai." Haley said coolly, putting one hand on her hip.

She nearly laughed outright when he almost dropped his precious blade, but most people tended to be clumsy when she was around.

"Haley?" Kai was speechless, he never expected to meet up with his childhood friend. "What are you doing here?"

This time she laughed, "Where else would I be? It's not like you took me with you when you left." She knew her words were cold, but she thought that he deserved it. "Anyway, apparently, your gracious grandfather wanted me to battle you one on one, so that's what I came here to do." She held up her blade. As it caught a beam of light that seeped through a shaft in the ceiling, the bit piece came alive, shining beautifully but dangerously.

That was when Kai was able to catch a glimpse of the White Phoenix, the counter part of the Black Dranzer. He gasped and stepped back a little. He always heard of the legendary Phoenix but never knew whom it belonged to.

"You have it?"

"Not surprising considering I am the only one who can control its powers. Isn't she just the most delightful-looking blade ever?" She began pacing back and forth, "So I heard you ditched your team huh? That's a dirty trick to pull, even for you." Her words lashed out like a whip.

Kai looked away, he knew inside too. He also cared about his teammates eventhough he never shown it. But then the power of the Black Dranzer was too seductive, he just could not pass up on such a wonderful chance to be the champ. He looked at the black blade in his hand as if to convince himself of this.

Haley had been studying him silently, circling him like a black panther. She notice how he seemed to be arguing with himself and was pleased to see that he still had feelings left. Her words sank in after all. She smiled. He wasn't as different as they were when they were little kids.

Haley thought back to when they were children, both laboring away at their beyblades, day in, and day out. All the other kids thought she would fail that she would be the first to be thrown out, then when she shown signs that she was a natural the masters grew more interested in teaching her while the boys grew to dislike her. But even through all the threats and taunts of the others it was Kai who always stood by her side, it was he who had defended her. They both made their way to greatness together, and it seemed like that she would always find her blue-haired buddy next to her.

Then one day, she woke up to find him gone. Boris said that Kai had escaped in the middle of the night and left no note. She was suddenly alone, feeling betrayed on the inside and vulnerable on the outside. There was no other way, either she had to stand up to the others or fail and go home in shame. She learned to be a lone survivor, to do things without remorse or fear, she had become a heartless fighter. Suddenly the tables were turned, the other boys learned to fear her as she repeatedly trashed each of their blades and sent them packing. She was the pride and joy of BioVolt.

When she had passed her last test, the abbey freely opened its doors and let her out of the prison she had known all her life and she returned to living her life as the daughter of a billionaire tycoon who was a good friend of Mr. Voltaire himself. (how lucky)

Haley decided spend her time in the mountains, away from the intricate web of evil. She became peaceful, both inside and out and soon she learned to forget Kai.

Then one day, out of the blue, she was sent a message from Boris, requesting that she go back to Russia. This was a fair surprise because she thought that she would be free of that dreadful place forever. But something inside her nudged her to go back; it unsettled her because it seemed that she would be receiving her greatest test yet.

And now her test was standing in front of her. The little boy she had lost has come back to her, but now as her enemy.

"I believe in knowing your opponents before you crush them, and since you failed to even recognize your best friend I might as well tell you who I am." Haley looked directly into Kai's mahogany eyes

"I belong to a group of beybladers called Spit Fire. And believe me, my team is gonna stay together far longer than your team ever will." She smirked, "I'm also a potential champion of the world but since I was never interested in competitions I may never be." Haley shrugged, "So don't worry King Kai, you still got a shot." She showed off her blade and it glinted in the light, "I've had this blade ever since we were kids, in case you don't remember, but the White Phoenix bit was an artifact that I stumbled upon when I was in the mountains." She winked, "How sweet is that?"

"Hmph!" Kai grunted, and folded his arms in front of his chest, "Well this is the Black Dranzer." He glared at Haley, "Think all you like but it is my blade that will come out victorious in our little battle."

Haley was a little taken aback by Kai's cold attitude towards her. Maybe he is changed after all.

She chuckled darkly. "You underestimate me Kai, be careful what you say because you will come to regret it later." She leaned back. "I never thought of you as a fool."

Kai looked at her, eyes ablaze. "How do you mean?"

Haley smirked. "And apparently you're blind too!"

"What?!" Kai was getting irritated.

"You're Boris's and Voltaire's puppet, plain and simple." She frowned. "It seems that they've done a great job on brainwashing you."

"This has nothing to do with either of them what so ever." Said Kai looking away, "You know, you should really mind your own business. I'm doing this for me and me alone." Kai looked at her, eyes burning, "And plus," he said in a mocking tone, "I thought you came here to battle me, under Boris's orders."

Haley gritted her teeth, her itched to go up to that self-inflated boy and punch him but decided against it and relaxed, "If a battle is what you want then it's a battle that you'll get. Prepare yourself Kai, because I'm gonna make you swallow your words."

She fitted her blade to the launcher and within seconds Luna was spinning in the battle dish below. A second later Black Dranzer joined it.

LET IT RIP!
