Toraneko: Aaah, exams are over, results are out! *stretches* And back to Beyblading! Whee~! *bounces* Fought into second round~! Have another competition this weekend! Kyaa!~ And for now...

ShiNiChYan: And to 'anonomyous' who can't even spell his/her name properly, I don't think that you know what the *BLEEP* you are talking about since the both of us had reviews asking for Kai/Rei relationship. If you don't believe our claim, then go read the reviews. I guarentee you that it is genuine. And about the '3...2...1... Go SHOOT' and not 'LET IT RIP' thing is because we are following the Japanese version and NOT the American version. I apologise to people before hand for my next comment. If you have not noticed, most of the American dubs basically suck to hell since they can't translate properly. For example, 'Rurouni Kenshin' which they translated to 'Samurai X' for god knows what reason when the title was supposed to mean 'Wanderer Kenshin'. Plus, they can't voice the characters properly to save their sorry lives. If you don't believe this claim either, then go and find the online translations. You'll find out that it is 'Go shoot' and not 'Let it rip' as you say. Plus, there are some people who enjoy M/M slash or Yaoi and there are some people who like straight pairings. We try to cater to both and not everyone shares the same sentiments as you do. So just get a life and go read something else. Also, we had put up a warning before hand of M/M relationship so it's not our fault that you ignored the warning. *Shrugs* Thus you have no right to flame us for the pairing as we both are seasoned writers and know what we are doing. So if you would kindly BACK OFF it would be much appreciated. The world does not revolve around only you and your views. Get that through your thick skull. ^_^

Rebirth of the Blade Breakers: chapter seven

Battle

For the next few days at school, the halls were buzzing with the news of the battle between Chris' and Yuuki's group.

Chris' loyal fans and supporters had all come to one conclusion, which was that he and his friends had gone easy on the girls and thus lost to them. Some thought that the guys had fought full power and still lost to the girls who seriously had more talent and skills than they had let on, some stood in the middle, unable to decide which side was right while the extremely small percentage of people just did not care about who was right.

Of course, after that particular battle, the girls' fanclubs had grown even more, with more guys asking them out now and then. All were rejected though, politely by Yuuki, a direct 'No.' from Minou and snapped at by Yume who was seriously getting sick and tired of all the attention and just wanted to be left alone. But since they had defeated Chis and his friends, Chris' fangirls would not let the trio live it down, irritating them and pestering them to no end. They had even managed to get Yume, the normally quiet and icy one so worked up to the extent that she promised a slow and torturous death to anyone else who dared disturb them. Of course, she should have known that her threat would be falling on deaf ears. That was when Ken, Kuro and Haru finally decided to step in and help the girls, Haru only in for helping the girls so that he would be able to flirt with them.

"Remind me why am I doing this again?" Kuro questioned Ken as the other boy dragged him to the empty space where the girls held the battle with Chris and gang.

"Because," Ken replied, his eyes darting around for any sign of the girls. "You're my friend and friends are supposed to help each other right? So you're helping me get the girl of my dreams."

"Who happens to be...?"

"You know..." Ken replied, his face turning a bright red.

"No I don't. You have not told me that yet and I will refuse to help you from now on if you don't tell me now." Kuro said, tugging his hand away from Ken's grasp.

"Well..."

"Ken! Kuro!"

Shifting his glance between the running figure and the blushing Ken, Kuro finally realised who was the unlucky girl so to say.

As the panting brunette finally caught up with the two, Ken's blush had grown bigger and more obvious, much to the dismay of the poor boy.

"Yo~" Yuuki greeted them, winking at the two boys as her teammates caught up. An extremely pissed look on her face, Yume slapped a hand on Yuuki's shoulder, a nerve twitching obviously on her forehead. "Never. Run. Like. That. Again." She said, her threat omni-present in every word and syllable pronounced.

"Eh heh heh..." Yuuki smiled meekly, cowering under her teammate's glare.

At the side, Minou sighed, giving up on the extremely violent blue-haired girl. "Yare yare..." She rubbed the back of her head and looked over to Kuro and Ken. "Eh?" She said, noticing something. "Where's Haru?"

Looking around, they group finally noticed the missing sliver haired flirt.

Sweatdropping, Minou pointed at a diatant figure who was obviously taking his own sweet time to reach the group.

Upon reaching his destination, Haru recieved a very nice klonk on the head. "Hey!" He cried, rubbing the sore spot on his head given to him by an extremely angry Yume.

"Where were you?"

"Heh," Haru grinned. "S'not my fault that I'm too good looking. You know," He leaned closer to Yume. "I'm still free..." And got a slap in the face.

"Watch it." Yume said as she narrowed her eyes at him. Both her teammates stood by ready to hold the blue-haired girl back just in case Haru shot back a remark.

Shaking his head, Ken looked away from the on-going battle between Haru and Yume, Ken looked to his left side, at the noisy crowd of students and noticed someone walking towards them.

"Hey Kuro," He nudged his friend. "Isn't that Ky?" He asked pointing his finger at the approaching figure.

Squinting his eyes, Kuro nodded. "Yep, that's him alright." Looking at Haru, Kuro asked him whether he had told anyone about their meeting. Haru swore that he never did.

"Hey Ky..." Ken greeted, unsure about what the other boy wanted.

Noticing something gripped in the other boy's hand, Yuuki stepped closer wanting to get a good look at the object.

"A beyblade!" She exclaimed.

Silence fell on the group as Ky put his hand forward and showed the beyblade in his hand. He turned to face Ken. "I challenge you to a match."

"A... A match!?" Ken replied, shocked that the top student in the level was into beyblades.

Ky nodded. "Do I need to repeat myself or use more simple words for you to understand?"

Ken growled. "If you want a match then it's a match you've got!" He said as the two slipped into position.

The countdown began, both boys had a look of extreme concentration on their faces. And as the two beyblades were released from their launchers, Yume watched the match closely, observing every move made by Ky as one thought was repeated in her mind.

//Dranzer... Are you willing to accept him as your successor?//
