Chapter 3*~~ The Girl*~~

Tyson looked for a moment at the girl behind the counter. She smiled. "May I help you?" she asked.

"Uh, we're just getting some snacks," Tyson said softly. As they walked away Tyson was thinking about the girl. She had silver hair to the bottom of her back and glittering emerald eyes.

"You guys, that girl is really pretty," Ray said as they walked down the isle. Tyson's mind was whipped clear when he saw some food. He didn't know what they were but he started grabbing different ones. "She can't be more than eleven though," array said thoughtfully.

"I think it's against the law to work if you're younger than fourteen," Kenny said thoughtfully. "I wonder why she's working here."

"That's an easy one!" said a girl's voice. They all jumped. Behind them stood and eleven year old girl with purple hair and pink eyes. "I take it you're staying here and that you don't live here."

"Yes, that's right. How did you know?" Ray asked.

"First of all YOUR clothes don't exactly blend like your friend's do. Plus everyone around here knows about her," she pointed at the counter, "reason for working here." They looked dumbstruck and she laughed. "I'm Jerry Tucker, her friend. I'll let her explain. Come on!" Jerry pulled them up to the counter and Tyson set his things down. She quickly checked them and he paid.

"Jerry why are these guys so special they get you for an escort?" she asked as she hopped up on the counter and sat cross legged.

"They want to know your story," Jerry said with a mischievous twinkle in her eyes.

She shook her head. "I'm Kita. Who exactly are you?"

"I'm Ray. This is Kenny, Max, and Tyson." Kita froze and Jerry bit her lip. "What?"

"Where's the other Blade Breaker?" asked Kita quickly.

"Who knows?" Max said shrugging.

"Well." Kita smiled. "All right, I work here, but I guess that is obvious. I know the owner. Her name is Kitsu Hakumaru. You can't work until you're fourteen in America unless you're hired by family so I just say I'm her sister. That's basically it. I just need a job to pay for my blading stuff."

"You Beyblade?" asked Kenny setting his computer down.

"Yes, she does ad she's REALLY good," Jerry said. Kita blushed. "So what motel are you staying at?"

"We're at the Silver Inn," Max replied.

"The silver Inn?!" the girls said in unison. The boys nodded. "Wow, no one rich enough to stay at the Silver Inn has ever come here before!" Kita said joyfully.

"Actually, the last member of our team was here earlier. He got us dinner. Kai actually volunteered!" Kenny said.

"Yeah that was a huge surprise," Tyson agreed.

"Kai," Kita said softly. She looked down for a moment and Jerry bit her lip again looking worried. Suddenly Kita seemed to snap out of a trance.

"Kita tonight is your early night right?" Jerry asked quickly as an idea dawned in her mind. Kita nodded. "Well I'll hang out with these guys until then. It's seven so there's only an hour left!"

Kita's face broke into a smile again. "I'll just close now. No one ever comes in after seven. That's why you always come now. We just hang out and talk, while you steal some grape soda from the fridges!" Jerry blushed.

"What are we going to do?" asked Tyson as she hung a closed sign on the door.

"I'm going to show you my blade place. It's downstairs, come on!" Kita led the group behind the counter and pulled dup a trap door covered with a rug. They walked down a flight of steps and stopped. It was pitch black.

"It's a little dark!" Kenny said.

"You think?" Ray said sarcastically. Kita hissed and they fell silent. She hit a switch and grinned at their stunned faces. The room they were in was flooded with light.

"Welcome to my Beyblading place. I take it by your expressions your impressed?" Kita smiled at their dopey looks. Impressed was an understatement! There were three different fields to blade on, a set of computers, ten boxes of spare parts, odds and ends, a box of what looked like bit-beasts, and more rings in the making.

"Cool!" Max said running to the smooth circle of a ring. It was lined with sleek metal. "This looks perfectly smooth!"

"It is!" Kita said.

"You must be a great blader!" Ray said looking around. Kit said nothing. Jerry sat down and smiled at her best friend. Kenny was sitting on the floor and start Dizzi up again. Kita and Jerry walked over with interest.

"What is this?" asked Jerry bending down.

"This is Dizzi. She's the best computer in the world!"

"Thanks Kenny," Dizzi replied. "If I had a face and body I'd blush."

"She's a sarcastic one though!" Tyson said as the team came over and sat down as well.

"Look who's talking Tyson!" Dizzi said wisely. Max sniggered. Ray shook his head.

"What can Dizzi do?" asked Kita.

"Everything!" Kenney said. "She's the best!" He explained a little of what Dizzi could do. "I have a question though. Kita what are those?" he asked and pointed at the box of what seemed to be bit-beasts.

"Exactly what they look like. Bit beasts. I made them. I do that sort of thing down here. I'm not sure if they work or not though. I've never tried them." Jerry was silently listening to her friend tell them about why she never tested them. An idea struck her.

"I've got an idea!" They all looked at Jerry. "I think Kita is good enough to be a Blade Breaker!"

"Really?" asked Max cocking his head. She nodded.

"She can take you on Max! If she wins, she can join the team! I think it's about time you added a GIRL to your team! We're NOT the weaker sex you know! And if men have the muscles and sport talent girls sure to hell -excuse my language- have the brains!" Jerry said excitedly. Kita rolled her eyes.

"Please excuse my demented friend. She wants me to go major with my blade. I really think she should see a shrink!" Kita said shaking her head. Jerry glared and then laughed.

"Okay," said Tyson. He looked as though he had been thinking hard, something he rarely. They all looked at him.

"What?" asked Kita.

"If you beat Max you're on the Blade Breakers."

"I think it's a good idea!" Ray said. The others nodded. Dizzi brought up one problem though.

"I'm sure Mr. Dickinson won't care but what about Kai?" They all froze at Dizzi's words. That was true. Kai would probably kill them if they added a new teammate without asking him.

"Uhhhh!" Ray groaned. "I forgot about Kai!"

"He'll just have to live with it!" Tyson said.

"Yeah but Kita will have to put up with him!" Max said. They looked at Kita. Her face was slightly sharp.

"Tyson is right. Kai will just have to live with it!" Kita's voice was slightly cold and anger flashed across her eyes. Jerry began to nibble her lip again. "Ready? Oh, wait. I have to get my blade!"

She ran to her monitor and next to it was a purple beyblade. "Ready, set, BEYBLADE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Ray yelled.

"Let it rip!" the two bladers yelled in unison. They each launched theirs. "Aqua Marine, tidal wave!" Kita yelled. Max grinned.

"I've seen this one in the Asian tournament!" he said. "You know what to do Draciel!" Kita grinned as well.

"Maybe not. I doubt you've ever seen this tidal wave. Go for it Aqua!" Her blade did the same as the one Max was talking about- almost. At the last moment it swerved, stunning Max. She spun Aqua Marine around behind and rammed into him. It flew up and went towards Kita. She backed up quickly and jumped. She fell to the floor with a thud. Draciel was in her fist.

"Ready to go again?" asked Kita. Max was confused.

"You won!"

"You play three!" Kita said and got back into position for launch. Max sighed and did the same. Kita beat him again.

"Welcome to the Blade Breakers!" Kita smiled at Ray who had spoken. "Now ho wants to be the one to tell Kai?" There was silence in the room.

A/N Hope you like this chapter! I know the whole Kita joining the Blade Breakers happened REALLY fast but I couldn't think of anything else! I had MAJOR writer's block! Sorry! Besides the real story isn't about how Kita joined the Blade Breakers. Oh and the guys didn't think she would beat them. I know Aqua Marine isn't a normal Beyblade name but it's the name I picked and it HAS to be that.
