Ok, so, Jury came back home in the last chapter and found that her 'home' was now on fire and burning quickly. Time for the chapter now.

Chapter 3

When Tyson and the others arrived at the place, they were greeted with the sight of the fire consuming the house. "Whoa!! I hope nobody is in there!!" Tyson said.

Jury stood motionless as she watched her home burn. She soon saw Tyran, Gizzy, and Maria running up to her. But there was no sign of Kylie or Sarah.

"Jury!" Maria said as she ran up.

"This is so not good!" Tyran said as she ran up beside her friend. Jury took off running and went right for the house.

"Jury! Don't go in there!" Gizzy said as she watched her friend kick down the door and run in.

"Is she crazy!?" Ray yelled as he and the others ran up to the girls.

Maria and Tyran looked at each other before running towards the house to follow, but they didn't get far before some timber blocked their path.

"Kylie and Sarah are still in there!" Maria yelled.

"They're still inside!?" Ray yelled. He couldn't believe what was happening. None of the guys could. Jury, Kyle, and Sarah were trapped inside the burning building.

"They'll be killed!" Max yelled.

"Kylie! Sarah! Are you in here!?" Jury yelled as she ran through the house.

"Up here!!"

Jury turned towards the stairs and quickly ran up. There, she found Kylie trying to lift a beam off her sister.

"Help me," Kylie said.

Jury quickly ran over and helped her friend. They both lifted the beam slightly off their fallen friend. "Sarah, see if you can crawl out," Jury said as they held the beam up. Sarah slowly crawled out. She seemed alright and unharmed. Jury and Kylie then dropped the beam.

"The window!" Kylie said before grabbing a chair and throwing it at the window, shattering the glass. She then helped Sarah up and over to the window.

"Look!" Ray said, pointing to the window.

"Come on!! They're gonna jump!" Tyson said as he ran over with the others.

Sarah got up onto the window sill and jumped down landing in a crouch position. Maria, Tyran, and Gizzy all ran over to her and got her away from the house.

"You go next, Jury. I gotta go back for something," Kylie said as she took off towards the door.

"What do you have to get!?" Jury yelled after her.

"Just go!" Kylie yelled before running down the hall and into her room. Jury wasn't gonna let her best friend get fried, so she followed her. Kylie looked up from her bedroom floor. "You don't listen very well do you?" Kylie dived under her bed and brought out a metal box, which she opened and pulled out the fighting pieces. "We'll have to go out onto the roof. The stairs are too burned an I've got the bars on my window." With that said, Jury and Kylie both took off towards the attic stairs and threw the window.

"There!" Maria yelled as she saw Jury and Kylie climb out of the attic window.

Jury climbed out and looked over the edge. "Someone better catch me!"

Kylie rolled her eyes at her. "Hush."

Maria ran close to the house. "Jury! Kylie."

"Maria, catch!" Jury yelled before throwing her the fighting pieces, which were all strung onto one necklace.

Maria ran and caught them. "Get down from there now!"

"Kylie, jump." Jury said.

"Ain't gotta tell me twice," Kylie said before jumping off the roof. Next thing she knew, Kai had jumped up and caught her. She looked up at hi m and glared. "Put. Me. Down."

"Gladly, Jury would kill me if I let you fall," Kai said as he landed and set her down.

"Yeah, whatever," Kylie said in her usually cold voice before running over to Sarah. "You ok?"

"Yeah. Jury!" Sarah yelled up at her leader.

"Coming!" Jury said before jumping down and landing in a crouch. The other girls then ran over to her. They all watched as their home burned to the ground.

Maria then tossed the pieces to Kylie. "You crazy fool."

Kylie just grinned as she caught them. "No, it's not crazy fool. It's crazy bitch."

"You got that right," Tyran laughed.

"I second that one," Gizzy said.

Tyson and the others ran up to them. "Are you nuts!?" he yelled.

"Yes," both Kylie and Jury said in union.

Ray looked at the slowly burning building. "Where will you guys stay now?"

Kylie shrugged. "Guess we'll just have to find another abandoned building."

"What!? Why!?" Max asked or more like yelled.

"We have nowhere else to go," Kylie said.

"Mr. Dickenson could probably get a room for you guys and you could travel with us," Kenny suggested.

Kylie cocked an eyebrow at him. "Why would he do that. I doubt he'd-" Gizzy didn't get to finish her sentence when Ray cut her off.

"Great idea, Kenny," Ray said.

"Yeah, Mr. Dickenson wouldn't mind at all," Tyson said excitedly.

Tyran sweatdropped. "They don't listen do they?"

"No," Sarah and Kylie said in union.

"They're right though." All eyes turned to Kai. Kylie glared at him.

"Oh really?" Jury asked as she crossed her arms standing on one hip.

Kai nodded. "Mr. Dickenson really wouldn't mind."

"Alright! Let's go!" Max yelled before starting to push the girls down the road.

"Go where?" Kylie asked before bring shoved by Max down the road.

"To the hotel of course," Max replied with his usual grin.

"It'd be better then sleeping on the floor I guess," Sarah said. Five pairs of eyes looked at them in shock.

"What!? On the floor!?" Tyson yelled, jaw dropped.

"Yeah. Gizzy, Maria, and Tyran slept on the only beds we had while the rest of us were either sleeping on the floor or keeping watch out on the roof," Kylie explained.

"Dude!" Tyson said. He couldn't believe that way these girls lived. Kylie just cocked an eyebrow at him.

Soon, they were inside the hotel heading up to the room the guys stayed in. Kylie looked around a bit before looking at Jury as they followed Tyson and the others. "Tell me again why we're doing this." Jury shrugged.

"Come on Kylie. For once will you lighten up and accept help?" Sarah said as she jumped up onto her sister's back.

Kylie wrapped her arms under her sister's legs and carried her. "I wont. That's what got me on the streets in the first place."

Ray opened the door to the room before letting them in. The girls filed in one by one and looked around. It was a nice room. Too nice to where Kylie didn't feel right being there. She felt more or less out of place.

While the girls were taking all of this in, Ray had explained the situation to Mr. Dickenson. Mr. Dickenson then walked up to them. "Well girls, I have heard about your predicament and I'd be glad to help."

Kylie cocked an eyebrow at him. "Just like that?"

Mr. Dickenson nodded. "Just like that."

Sarah turned her head and looked at Kylie. "Do I like him?"

"I don't know, but I'm not sure I do," Kylie replied slightly narrowing her eyes at him.

Jury nudged them both with her elbow. "Just thank him you two. We can trust him."

"Maybe you can, but I'm not too sure yet," Kylie said before dropping Sarah onto a near-by couch and leaning against the wall crossing her arms.

Jury sighed. "She's not very trustworthy, sir."

Mr. Dickenson merley smiled. "That's very understandable. Now, I'll go a head and call down and get you a room. Make yourself comfortable." Maria and Tyran gladly sat down on the couchs. It had been a while since they had comfortable couches. Tyson, Max, and Ray watched them with amusment. They acted like children on Christmas. Kai looked over at Kylie, who stood where she was at. He could tell that she hadn't had much to eat in a long while. Her arms were thin, almost boney. The same with Jury as well, but not as bad. The others didn't look as bad as those two did, so Kai assumed that Jury and Kylie gave their share of food to them. Even though Kylie and Jury's arms were thin, Kai knew they could hit really hard and do a hell of a lot of damage as he had seen previously.

All eyes were turned to the door as Tyson's grandpa came in. "Yo my peeps! Who are the chicks!?"

Tyson rolled his eyes at him and sighed. "Grandpa! Cut it out will ya!?"

Kylie glared at the man. "Call us that again and I'll rip your throat out."

"Kylie!" Maria yelled.

Jury stood and slightly bowed to him. "Please excuse her. My name is Jury and the one who threatened you over there is Kylie."

Grandpa just waved it off. "So, Tyson, where's your next stop?"

"We're staying here for a while, grandpa," Tyson replied as he took over one of the overstuffed chairs.

Jury sat down next to Maria as Ray took over another chair.

"So, when's this tournament you guys are in?" Ray asked. Jury blinked as Kylie cocked an eyebrow at him. "I heard you guys were in a tournament with a prize of $25,000."

"Oh, that one. It's in another week," Gizzy replied as she sat down next to Tyran.

"Which reminds me. Are we qualified yet, Giz?" Jury asked.

"Almost, we need five more pieces," Gizzy said.

"I'll get them," Kylie said as she stood.

"Good idea," Jury said, knowing she might want some time alone for a bit. Kylie the =n walked out of the room with her hands in her pockets.

"Well isn't she a downer," Tyson said.

"Kind of reminds me of Kai," Max said as he leaned on the back of the couch.

"Wha. . . .?" Kai said.

"Oh yeah Kai. You were a real ice block," Tyson said, remembering when Kai did nothing but make smart-ass comments and give them cold glares.

"If you understood her life then you'd know why," Maria said as she looked at the floor.

"Why? What happened?" Ray asked a bit curious. He didn't really believe in the saying Curiosity killed the cat.

"Everyone in this town knows about it. When she and her sister were separated, she was sent to a foster home. Unfortunatly, it was an abusive one. They had beaten her pretty badly. They even put her in a small closet for days before beating her again. She soon had to learn how to fight to keep alive when people would try and beat her up cause she was weak thanks to her foster parents," Tyran explained.

"Whoa," Max said. Tyson's eyes went slightly wide. Jury looked over at Kai and saw what looked like a sign of disgust. To Jury, Kai looked like he'd be sick.

"She soon escaped there and came pretty far till she reached this town. Afterwards, she met Jury and they both took all of us in. If it weren't for them, we'd still be on the streets," Gizzy explained, picking up where Tyran left off.

"Wow. So that's why she doesn't trust anyone right?" Ray said.

"That and the last person she trusted her backstabbed her," Maria said.

"Yeah, her and Jury had it pretty bed," Tyran said.

Ray looked at Jury. "What happened to you after the Abby?"

Jury sighed. "When I escaped, I had to sneak aboard a lot of planes and stuff to get here. I had heard about the tournament and I'd lived here a lot longer than any of these girls here so I know this place pretty well."

"I had met up with Jury and found Kylie. Then it was Tyran and Gizzy and then Maria," Sarah said as she sat down on the floor in front of the couch.

"How did the rest of you get here?" Max asked.

"Me and Gizzy met up in an orphanage and became friends pretty quickly. When I had heard they were gonna send me off to some home, I told Gizzy I was gonna escape. She said that she'd help out and we both escaped together. From there we ended up here and met Jury, Kylie, and Sarah," Tyran said.

"What about you Maria?" Tyson asked.

"I was born in Mexico and the government wasn't too nice to us. My father was killed by them, and my mother fell ill. After she died I had no one left, so I picked up my stuff and left that very same day. I wandered around a lot and met up with Tyran, who introduced me to the others," Maria said.

"Man, you guys have it pretty bad," Max said a bit shocked.

Tyran shrugged. "We do a lot of work around here so we get by pretty well."

All eyes were turned to the door when Kylie came in with a bloodied up leg. Jury shook her head.

"What did you do this time?" Gizzy asked.

Kylie shrugged and tossed the five pieces she picked to Gizzy. "Stupid alley dog bit me and the fight didn't help much either."

Gizzy caught them and sighed. She then took her lab top out and started to type. "Ok, we're qualified."

"Good. Now I've got some work to do," Jury said before running out.

A few seconds later, Mr. Dickenson walked in with a room key. "It's all set, ladies. Your room is right next to ours."

"Good, I'm ready for bed," Maria said. Mr. Dickenson then handed the key to Maria. "Thank you, sir," Maria said before running out with the others over to the room. "And this time Kylie, take care of the wound. Don't let it bleed again," Maria said before unlocking the door and going inside. Kylie and the others followed.

"Kiss my ass. I'll let it bleed if I want to," Kylie replied. Maria sighed and shook her head. There was no use talking to her.

Tyran quickly ran over and set her beyblade on the side dresser before climbing into bed. "Finally, a comfortable bed."

Sarah then jumped into one of the beds. "Yeah really."

Gizzy set her lab top down and got into her bed. "I'm beat."

Kylie shook her head before going over to one of the beds and grabbing the pillow and blanket and laying down on the floor. "I prefer the hard floor. Too used to it."

Maria set her beyblade out on her side dresser before climbing into her bed. "Ok Kylie."

Soon, all five girls were fast asleep. Around one in the morning, Jury came into the room covered in dirt and water. She went over to her bed and fell into the bed falling asleep instantly.

Morning soon found Kylie asleep on the floor. She blinked her eyes open and sat up slowly. She looked around to find Sarah, Gizzy, Tyran, and Maria gone. She shook her head and stood up stretching. The blood on her leg had crusted over. Her pant leg was now stuck to her leg. She looked over at Jury who was still sleeping. She smirked and shook her head again before looking at the time. She blinked as the clock read ten am. "Wow, I actually slept in for once." She then walked out the door and looked around for Gizzy and the others.

"But Ray!" came Tyson's whiney voice.

"I said no Tyson!" Ray said.

Kylie looked to see Ray and Tyson not far down the hall.

"But-" Tyson started.

"No!" Ray said cutting him short.

Kylie cocked an eyebrow at them. "What are you two yelling about at ten am in the morning?"

"Ray wont bey battle me!" Tyson whined.

Kylie smirked. "I will."

"You will!? Alright!" Tyson said as he took out his blade.

Kylie had to laugh. "Boy, you're energetic."

"Wait, Kylie. Let me battle him." Kylie turned to see Tyran standing behind her. "I wanna prove to him that there is a blade who can compare to Dragoon."

"Alright. Go for it Tyran. He's all yours," Kylie said before walking off.

"Yes! Bring it," Tyran said as she took out her blade and readied it.

Ray referied. "Ready?"

Tyson got Dragoon ready and smirked. Tyran smirked back at him.

"In three. Two. One. LET IT RIP!!!!!!" Ray yelled.

Both bladders launched their blades.

"Go Naudia!" Tyran yelled.

"Come on Dragoon!" Tyson yelled as well.

Both blades then lit up. A black and blue bitbeast emerged from Tyran's blade. It was half human with the upper half of her being that of a dragon's tail with fangs and claws. Dragoon also emerged from his blade shinning with his glory.

"Naudia! Blue lightning attack now!" Tyran yelled. Blue lightning began to form around Tyran's blade.

"Dragoon! Phantom hurricane attack!" Tyson yelled. The air around Dragoon began to create a storm.

"Naudia! Attack now!" Tyran yelled. Tyran's blade headed right for Dragoon sending it's electricity everywhere. Dragoon dodged the attack flying into the air before landing right on top of the blade. "Damn," Tyran said before smirking.

"Come on Dragoon!" Tyson yelled.

"Time to kick it up a knotch. Naudia!" Tyran yelled. The blade began to wobble more on purpouse rather than from Dragoon. It headed right for the side table in the hall where a vase full of flowers stood. The blade hit it knocking the vase over and causeing the water in it to spill onto the blade and Dragoon, who was still spinning on to of it. "Attack now!" Tyran said. The blade began to create electricity again sending volts through it and Dragoon using the water. Dragoon began to wobble as the blade under it was still wobbling.

"Oh no!" Tyson gasped.

Tyran smirked. "Finish it Naudia!"

The blade then knocked Dragoon off and hit it before it hit the ground. Dragoon bounced back a bit and began to slow down.

"Wha-? No way!" Tyson said as he watched his blade loose speed.

Tyran smirked as her blade went right at Dragoon, sending him right at Tyson. Tyson caught Dragoon as Tyran picked up her still spinning blade.

"That was a sweet match!" Ray said.

"Now think. If I kicked you butt that means Jury would've kicked yours as well. She beats me all the time," Tyran said as she put her blade back into her pocket.

Tyson smirked. "Then I'll just had to fight you again after Dragoon's had a rest."

"I look forwards to it, but for now I gotta find Maria. Later!" Tyran said before running off down the hall.

Tyson smirked and looked down at his blade. "Great job, Dragoon. Looks like we got some work to do."

Ok, that chapter was maybe a page longer than the last one on Microsoft Word. I forgot to mention last time that the last chapter was coauthored with my friend Star Blaze. She doesn't have a Bey Blade fic up (yet) but if you like Ronin Warriors, then check out her fic called Untitled. It pretty strange but very good.
