Yami: Another short chapter. *sigh*

Kai: What she means is, she's sorry.

Yami: Yeah. That's what I mean.

Kai: It's way too late at night.

Yami: Yeah.

Kai: Ten o'clock at night.

Yami: That's why the chappie's so short.

Kai: Why are you writing so late at night? And with exams tomorrow?

Yami: *yawns* shut up, Kai. I just wanted to let people have something new to read.

Kai: You hear that, people? She actually cares about you!

Yami: Aww, leave me alone Kai.

Kai: Okay. She doesn't own anything, will not own anything.

Yami: *snores*

Kai: *pokes Yami*

Yami: *snores*

Kai: Cool! Anyway, enjoy her fic! *continues poking Yami*

Tyson dodged his current opponent, Tala. The beyblader was not only battling with his bitbeast, but himself as well. The other members of the team were playing the same way,

Dragoon sliced at Tala's bitbeast. The wolf dodged. Tala landed a punch on Tyson's shoulder. His broken arm protested.

"Kenny!" Tyson shouted into his radio.

"What?"

"Where's the nearest armory?"

"Why?"

"My opponent has a gun!"

"Ten meters to your left. The Dark Bladers are handing out weapons."

"Thanks buddy!" Tyson grabbed a steel rod and deflected Tala's attack.

Ray ran over and handed a weapon to Tyson. "Use it well," Ray warned.

"Understood." Tyson brought the gun to bear on Tala just as the other did the same. The beyblades continued to battle.

"I will fire if you do not surrender."

"So will I."

Tala grinned. "It appears we have a stalemate."

Another gun discharged. Tala flinched as the bullet hit him. Dragoon took advantage of Tala's bitbeast's momentary distraction to deliver the killing blow.

The battle waged on for another week. Finally, the ESUN won, driving the resistance into its outer space base.

"I can't believe we lost," Tyson said, examining his totaled beyblade. Robots had been built to house the bitbeasts, and Dragoon was inhabiting one of them.

"It can be rebuilt," Dragoon said.

"I concur," Dranzer said.

"Momentai," Draciel (A/N sorry if it's spelled wrong) quipped.

"No more Digimon for you!" Max admonished.

"No!" Draciel begged. "I'll be good! I swear!"

"What's wrong with Digimon?" Dranzer wondered.

The Bladebreakers ignored the bitbeasts. They turned to look over a schedule.

"With luck, we can be fully repaired by next fall," Kai said.

"That's too long," Tyson said.

"Why?"

"Because."

"You have no idea do you?"

"Nope."

Kai shoved Tyson out of the room. "Anyone else?"

"No."

"Good. Anyway, it's the general consensus that all the beybladers learn how to pilot a mobile suit. You'll be put to work at general tasks, with a fair amount of time to be used for practicing. Kenny, you'll be working in the computer databases. Your supervisor will give you further instructions."

"Got it. Come on, Dizzi." Kenny and the robot Dizzi left the room.

"Ray, you'll help in the kitchens."

"Fine with me." Ray and Driger left.

"Tyson, you'll help me train beybladers."

"Awesome!"

"When did you get back in here?"

"I dunno."

"Follow me."

Tyson, Kai, Dragoon and Dranzer made their way to a massive training stadium. Bitbeasts of all sizes could be seen battling against each other.

Dragoon and Dranzer returned to their beyblades. Kai gave Tyson a brand-new one made of gundanium.

The beybladers grinned. "Once again we're competitors."

They launched.

Kai: She's still asleep.

Yami: *snores*

Kai: Oh well. Review, please! I'll have Yami awake for the next chapter.
