Yami: *groggily* Hello?

Kai: She just woke up.

Yami: I did not! I woke up earlier. I think.

Kai: You left me all alone last time!

Yami: You poked me! I have the bruises to prove it!

Kai: Sorry.

Yami: Anyway, thanks to Shadowfrost Panther for wishing me luck! You really care! *sniffs* I believe I did well on my exam today, btw. One can only hope…

Kai: Leave off the waterworks until my contract is up.

Yami: Ok, I will. Anyway, this is another short chappie. Sorry. I can't help it.

Kai: Yes you can.

Yami: There will probably be at most three more chapters. But a sequel is in the planning stage!

Kai: Just for the record, she doesn't own anything.

Yami: Thank you, Kai. Enjoy the chappie!

The resistance built up its forces slowly. More people arrived each day from the two different worlds to help. The Bladebreakers took it upon themselves to train everyone, while Kai trained them in the art of mobile suit piloting.

One day the next autumn, Tyson was busy with target practice in the shooting range. Kai entered the room and picked up a weapon.

"We go on the offensive next week," Kai informed him.

"Cool. Dragoon and I are ready." Tyson continued firing his weapon.

"Assignments are being passed out. You'll receive yours tonight."

"Okay."

They practiced in silence for a while, relatively speaking. Finally Tyson asked, "Where do you go when you're not around here? Which, might I mention, is often?"

"I hang around," Kai replied.

"Dude, after all this time you haven't learned the value of teamwork?"

"What's the point of a team, Tyson?" Kai snapped. "All a team does is pretend to help each other out, but in the end, when it comes down to yourself, there's only you. There's no one else. So why pretend that there's others who can help, when there isn't really anybody?"

Tyson watched Kai storm out of the room. "I wish he would learn that he's wrong," he said to himself. Picking up a bow and a quiver of arrows, he practiced archery for a while.

Ray and Driger were walking down the corridor when Kai barreled past them.

"Hey, Kai!" Ray called. Kai kept going.

"What's his problem?" Ray wondered,

The offensive was launched on schedule. The Bladebreakers were foot soldiers, so to speak, cleaning up after the mobile suits.

They first took back the space colonies in the gundam pilots' world. The colonies, eternally grateful, lent their resources to the war for freedom.

The next target was the earth itself. The ESUN, weakened, surrendered.

Biovolt remained the only threat. And they weren't going down without a fight.

"Kai, behind you!" Trowa yelled over the explosions.

Kai whirled around to block the enemy Leo that had tried to ambush him. The Leo, angry at being blocked, drove forward with all its might.

On the ground, the opposing beybladers were fighting it out. The news crews were covering everything. Tyson felt the uncomfortable added pressure. The entire world was watching him fight for freedom.

The Dark Bladers were on their side, along with the Majestics, All Starz, and White Tigers. Tyson could see the teams spread out on the desolate battlefield, fighting for their lives.

He was fighting Tala again. This time, they were evenly matched. Dragoon was battling the wolf bit beast, and Tyson was busy taking potshots at Tala as they hid behind fallen rocks and bits of metal.

With a resounding crash, all the mobile suits (including the gundams) crashed into each other. Without hesitation, the bitbeasts residing within the mobile suits entered beyblades as the pilots exited the trashed vehicles. The battles raged on.

"Tyson! Help!"

Max!

Tyson chose his moment carefully and shot Tala square in the head. The wolf bitbeast surrendered, and Tyson grabbed Dragoon. He ran in the direction that Max's voice had come from.

Max had been beaten and was now lying on the ground, injured. He had been shot five times, all in the chest. The Dark Bladers, acting as medics, ran over. Cenotaph's bitbeast wrapped Max up tightly and spirited him away to the hospital.

"I'll avenge you, Max!" Tyson cried after them.

Kai ran through the battlefield in search of an opponent. Dranzer guided him towards a big battle consisting of Kenny, Michael, all the Dark Bladers minus Cenotaph, the Majestics, and an equal number of enemies. Kai noticed that all the freedom fighters were being pushed towards here. And he soon saw why.

Yami: A cliffie. *sigh*

Kai: You like cliffies, don't you?

Yami: Yeah.

Kai: *rolls eyes*

Yami: It's winding down, folks! It's the beginning of the end!

Kai: Shut up. The faster you finish, the faster I can leave.

Yami: Wanna bet? *displays official looking paper* I got your contract renewed. You're mine, I tell you! Mine!

Kai: NOOOOOOO!!!!!

Yami: Just for the record, I meant that figuratively, so no suing!

Kai: Sue her! Sue her!

Yami: Watch it Kai!

Kai: *sullenly* Review and tell her to let me go!
