Chapter 2: Sonata
Nakoruru (grin): I'm finally getting a chance to write chapter 2. I'd like to thank Gem, and ShadowCat for their reviews.

Kai: Shouldn't you be apologizing to ShadowCat for that sexist comment at the end of the last chapter?

Nakoruru: Okay, I really want to clear that one up. I didn't mean it like that at all. What I meant when I said guys was everyone that was reading. I never meant to imply that all my readers were guys. Sorry for the mix up, ShadowCat.

Tyson: You again?

Nakoruru (hitting Tyson): Shuddap! Okay.notes, notes, notes.oh yeah. This story is taking place a little bit.okay a lot of ways a head of the actual storyline. I just decided that the Bladebreakers would win the World Championships and be the world champs. So this story is like taking place a couple of months after. So that clears up time period for everyone.

Ray: So this is the next chapter?

Nakoruru (being sarcastic): No, I just decided to do this for my health. Of course it's the next chapter, baka. Now I want you guys to take your places. And I do not own any of the Beyblade characters that appear in my story. Thank you.

The day was typically like every other one now that the Bladebreakers had won the world championships, which was sometimes very peaceful. Tyson rolled over, throwing the cover over his head to escape the sunlight that pushed through the curtains. There was no reason he should get up so early now that the championships were over.

"Tyson, are you still in bed?" Kenny pushed the door to Tyson's room open, only to find that the young man was exactly where Kenny inquired of him. Letting out a groan, Kenny walked into the room and threw open the curtains. "Will you get up? It's 11:00 already."

"Chief, just another hour," Tyson mumbled into his pillow as he burrowed deeper into the covers.

"Tyson, you can't sleep all day, get up." Kenny pulled at the blankets that Tyson held so tightly onto. "Tyson!!" After a minute of struggling, Kenny managed to yank the blankets from around Tyson. "Now get up, the others are waiting for us."

"I'm up, I'm up, jeez." Tyson glowered at Kenny, who was walking out the room with the covers.

It took a bit, but Tyson made his way outside, where the other Bladebreakers were. With a slight yawn, he stared at Kenny.

"So, what was the point in waking me up? We won the championships after all, what else is there for us to do." Kenny ignored the comment, but that gave Kai room to add in his comments.

"Just because we won the championships, that doesn't mean we get to rest. Hasn't anything sunk in yet? Now that we are the world champions, we still have to practice."

"Why?" inquired Tyson stupidly. "Why do we still have to train? I mean we've proved we're the best, right?"

"That's not it, Tyson," Ray remarked. "Now that we're world champions, we have to maintain our image. There will be plenty of people who will try to challenge us and make a name for themselves in the world. If we slack off now, then later, it will come back and bite us in the butts."

"Exactly," Kai said.

"Oh, come on. You guys are paranoid. There's no one who can beat us. We have nothing to worry about," grinned Tyson. "We should just relax and have a nice vacation on the beach somewhere."

"Tyson, I wouldn't say that too loud. There are plenty of people who would like to prove you wrong about that," Max replied.

"I'd like to find that someone too." The four boys sighed with exasperation at their teammate's thick headedness.

"What are we going to do with you, Tyson?" sighed Kenny.

"What? You guys are just paranoid. Come on, if there was someone who could beat us, wouldn't they have showed up by now? I say we just forget about this, and let me go back to sleep."

"Tyson, I wasn't going to say anything, but there have been rumors floating around," Kenny said. Not only Tyson, but also Max, Kai, and Ray stared at Kenny.

"Rumors? What rumors, Chief?" spoke Max.

Kenny looked at the four bladers then sighed. "There have been some rumors going around that several bladers were approached for Beyblade battles. No matter how good the individual was they still lost to these other mysterious bladers."

"So, why should we be concerned? That happens all the time. Some people take their losses to heart too much," Kai said, unimpressed with the information.

"There's a lot more to it, than you think, Kai. Some of the bladers had bitbeasts. When they lost against these mysterious bladers they claim that they stole the sacred beasts right from their blades. A few people have been talking about it, but no one really knows if it's true. Maybe they've just been shook up and made the stories up," Kenny said. "But some of the people I've talked to were pretty honest."

"Stolen bitbeasts." Ray frowned. "Is that possible, Chief?"

"I don't know, Ray."

"We don't have anything to worry about," assured Tyson, unfazed by the rumor. "We're the world champions. No one will try to take us on."

Meanwhile as the Bladebreakers are discussing the issue, they had no clue that three pairs of eyes were watching them from the shadows. A sinister smile curled the lips of the watcher. "So, the Bladebreakers aren't worried. I guess I'll have to take care of that."

"Don't be so haste to attack them. They are still a threat to our plans," said a pair of green eyes.

"Humph, they're no match for us. Why don't we just go ahead and attack them?" questioned a violet pair of eyes. "It's not like they can defeat us. We should catch them with their guards down."

"Remember what the boss said, we're suppose to be keeping watch on them until he gives us the word. Anyway." A pair of brown eyes turned its attention to the violet pair. "Why didn't you capture all of the White Tigers' bitbeasts? Remember what the boss said, he needs as many as we can find."

"Does it really matter?" scoffed the violet pair. "Lee's bitbeast, Ghalleon, was the strongest of them all anyway. What use did the boss have for the rest of them?"

"He needed every one that we can find, now go back and get them," ordered one with brown eyes.

"We don't have to worry about that, I've already taken care of it after she left. In the mass confusion of attending to their leader, I stole their bits. They're back at the corporation," smirked the green eyes. The brown eyes gave him a satisfied smile.

"Good, now all we have to do is wait for the other two to come back from America with news on our next move."

The three individuals turned away from the Bladebreakers and seemed to disappear into thin air. Kai felt a chill and looked over his shoulder. The other Bladebreakers looked to him to inquire what was wrong.

"Kai?"

"It felt like someone was watching us," he said.

"Watch us? But why?" inquired Max.

"I don't know, but I don't like this feeling. Something big is about to happen."
Nakoruru (dancing around): Chapter 2 is now done!!! After being sick and ice storms and all that boatload of stuff, I finally get this done. Yay!!!

Tyson: So what happens now?

Nakoruru: I get down to the real story that is about to be set off in the next chapter. Please people, review and tell me how you liked it. I'm sorry it's kind of short, but I'm doing my best. But I really like opinions and insight into what's going on. So tell me!!

Kai: You don't have to be so melodramatic.

Nakoruru (pouts): Shut up, I get to be anything I want.

Kai: Whatever. I'm leaving.

Nakoruru: Fine, who cares? I'm leaving too.
