Hi ho. THANKS FOR THE REVIEWS!!!!!!!!
Disclaimer: How would I own Beyblades? L
Tournament
Chapter Two
Meeting.
"Oh. My. GOD!" Melinda screamed as she ran into Marree and Madison's bedroom. Both girls sat up from their beds, this time without the magazines, and yelled at her for waking them up.
"Now, what is wrong?" Marree asked, slightly less angry.
"You'll never guess who I just saw!"
"Who?" Madison asked, getting out of her bed. She walked over to her luggage and pulled out a hairbrush and started to brush her long blonde hair with it.
"Him!"
"WHAT?" the other two screeched at the same time.
"He's staying here, but I also saw, um, 'thingy'
"Oh, no you didn't." Madison told her. "There is no way that he can be here!"
"But I saw him with his team! He walked past. I don't think he's staying here, though. He's that kind of red hair." Melinda giggled softly.
"Have you told Jay?" Marree asked, as she too got out of her bed and found her own hairbrush.
"No, I tried to, but she was too busy. She started to take our Beyblades apart, and put different Weight Disks that she scabbed off some guy, or something."
"She hasn't started again, has she?" Madison asked. "If dad finds out that she started to steal stuff for her blades again, then we're out of here and she's not allowed to Beyblade anymore."
"Did she tell you that she stole them?" Marree asked.
"No, but how else could have she gotten them?" Melinda pointed out.
"She promised that she wouldn't!"
"And I kept that promise." Jay snapped from the doorway. Her three sisters turned to her and smiled with their widest and biggest smiles, before they all hugged each other, cooing their 'good mornings'. "You really don't trust me at all, huh?"
"Of course we do. We're just being big sis's and are looking out for ya." Madison cooed. She ran over to Jay and started to pinch her cheek.
"Would you quit it?" Jay asked and swatted her hand away.
"Oh girls," Madison started, and pulled Jay over to her other two sisters, "we have a makeover to do!"
"Oh, oh no you don't!" Jay blushed, but couldn't get another sentence in as Madison started to apply the lip-gloss and Melinda started on her hair. Marree pulled a suitcase out from underneath her bed that was filled to the brim with clothes that were just the perfect size for Jay.
~*~
"Oh, great." Kenny moaned as he browsed through the Beyblade parts that he was going to use for the tournament. "Did you guys hear anything last night?"
"No." Max said, rubbing his eyes. He looked over at Takao, who was still sleeping. "I doubt he would have, either."
"And I was sleeping last night." Rei said. Kai walked over to the window that he was looking out of that night. "What's wrong, Kai?"
"Nothing." Kai said quietly.
"If you say so."
~*~
"I can't believe you!" Jay yelled as her sisters put her in front of the mirror in their bathroom.
Madison had done a thin layer of makeup; Melinda put Jay's hair up in a very tight braid, and then twisted it around the back of her head, and Marree had chosen a dark blue sleeveless top and dark blue hipsters jeans.
"You look perfect!" Melinda cooed. She put some gel in her hands before using it to put back one strand of hair that was out of place.
"I commend us on making our little sister look this good, and I most definitely commend your idea, Marree, of using that belt to keep her still!" Madison giggled. "And the clothes are just the best! I'm glad mum let you go on that shopping spree."
Jay's mother was very rich, but her father didn't do too well. That was one of the reasons why she didn't go around, showing off new clothes because her father couldn't afford to have her keeping up with all the fashions.
"I spent at least a thousand dollars on these clothes." Marree said, putting a hand on her cheek in disappointment. "It was hardly enough, but mum said I was only allowed to bring one bag car and one car for us. After we had each spent that much on clothes and makeup and hair accessories, there was hardly any room. We had to buy for ourselves, too, y'know. We wanted to show Russia the fashions back at home!"
"Yeah, whatever." Jay muttered and leaned forward towards the tissue box that was right in front of her, before her hand was smacked away.
"No. You are not wiping any of it off." Marree told her.
"Why?"
"Because I'm your older sister and I
said so!"
"Like I ever listened to you." Jay said, but walked out of the bathroom, knowing that she wasn't going to win this one, not with all of them wanting to back up Marree.
As she walked back to her own room, she past a small boy, about her age, with glasses on top of his head and a laptop under his arms, and he was talking to a dark blue haired boy.
"I can't believe it! All of the Weight Disks that I wanted to use in the tournament is missing!" the guy with the laptop exclaimed. Jay put her hand in her pocket and pulled out the four Beyblades for her team. Two blades each had one of the stolen disks.
"No way."
"Yeah. Well, we better be off, anyway, if we want to see the competition before we have to play against them." He suggested and they turned back around the hall to the room that Jay had run into the night before.
~*~ Flashback ~*~
Jay noticed the curtain move in the room above her just as she started to leave. She turned, counted the number of windows, and then ran into the main building. As she walked down the dark hall, she counted the doors that were there.
"Seven on one side, six on the other." She told herself as she tried to remember. When she found out that there were actually three doors each, she started to panic. "Okay, this isn't good."
Using a random choice, Jay got out two small pieces of wire from her pocket, that she always seemed to keep wherever she went, and started to pick at the middle door. Once it was unlocked, Jay started to walk inside the room when she heard what seemed to be a whimper. She looked around and watched as the whimper came from a boy who was lying on the ground with his blankets draped all over him. As she started to walk around, she noticed another person in a bed, and then another, who was sitting up.
"What do you want?" the person asked. Jay jumped back quickly with a small 'eep'. "Well?"
"I-." Jay started. She had never been caught stealing before by the person she was robbing. She was just thankful that it was too dark to see who they were, or it was just because the moon was behind a cloud. "I,"
"Are you robbing us?"
"We-well do you have anything worthy to steal?"
"No."
"Then I'll leave." Jay said and quickly turned as the moon came out from the cloud, showing the person her back.
"Wait, you're that girl who was training outside before, aren't you?" Kai asked.
"Yes. Now, are you asking about the other girl who I splashed? Her name is Marree, she's my older sister, she's seventeen, she's an identical triplet, and part of the Feminine Bladers Team, of which she and my other two sisters came up with. Her Bit Beast is the Unicorn, called Precious, she has blonde hair, blue eyes, blah blah blah." Jay snapped quietly.
"You're an okay blader."
"Whatever." Jay said and left. Once she was out of the room, she leant up against the door with her eyes closed. "I can't believe that happened." She groaned to no one in particular. Then she noticed that she had seen the Beyblade next to the guy. It looked pretty good, she figured, and she started to pick at the next door to see if they had any parts worth taking.
~*~ End Of Flashback~*~
And they did. She would have taken the whole lot if she could, but then she realised that they'd notice and call the authorities or something and she'd be sent back home because the guy in the last room would have told them. Her father warned her about stealing.
~*~Flashback~*~
"Where did you get this stuff?" Jay's father asked as he went through her room. She had Beyblade pieces hidden everywhere. Her father had gotten annoyed by how many times people came around to the small house, and demanded a rematch to regain their pieces that they lost in a game.
But there was stuff there that you couldn't win from a battle.
He angrily picked up a CD, an MP3 Player, and a few watches that were lying around, and threw them all down onto her small bed, while Jay worked on her Beyblade.
"Where did you get this stuff?" he demanded again.
"Well, I got the Beyblade pieces off people who lost them to me, I got that CD from Madison, and those are the watches that Grandma and Grandpa give me each year."
"And the MP3 Player?"
"I got that from, er, I can't remember. I've had it for like forever, probably from when we all lived together." Jay said absently and continued working on her Beyblade.
"You stole it, didn't you, and you haven't been alive long enough for you to have this many watches."
"Big deal. It's not like anyone misses that stuff."
Jay's father walked over to her desk and took a part away from her roughly.
"Look, you've been stealing all this stuff, and you're lucky that the police haven't decided to come after you. If I catch you stealing again, you aren't to go on any Beyblading tournament or anything else like that. You can't Beyblade as long as you're stealing stuff."
"What do you mean?"
"As long as you continue this, I won't allow you to go."
Jay glared at her father before she grabbed up her Beyblade and ran out of the room.
~*~End Of Flashback~*~
That was the first time that Jay had run away from her home, but it definitely wasn't her last.
~*~
Jay looked at the Beyblades in her hand and ran back to her own room.
"Hey," a voice said from behind her. She turned to see her three sisters.
"What?"
"I can't believe you actually came out here!" Melinda cooed. "Our beautiful little sister has finally accepted the fact that she's a girl!"
Jay watched her approach her, and almost gagged at the clothes they were wearing. "You're joking, right?" she asked.
The three were wearing pale, baby blue dresses, though each were a different design. Marree's was long, with a slit up her right leg, and spaghetti straps, Madison's was shorter with sleeves that came off the shoulders, and then spaghetti straps under them, and Melinda's was the shortest out of all of them, but had sleeves. Marree had her hair up high with a single bow, the same colour of the dress; of course, and had been sprayed with blue sparkles, Madison had her hair curled with baby blue butterflies everywhere and Melinda had her hair up in two plaits with the same type of bow as Marree had, only it was plaited in with the hair.
"No, of course we're not." Marree said. They each held the same blue handbags and wore the same blue high heels.
"I think we should have made her wear something that was baby blue, don't you?" Madison asked. She put a hand on her cheek and cocked her head sideways.
"Yeah. Maybe I have a baby blue top in your suitcase…." Marree started, but Jay started to walk off again.
"Oi, where are you going?" Melinda asked.
"The last time we were in our room, it was a complete mess. We need to pack and then get out of here so we can meet up with whoever asked for us." Jay explained. "And besides, we're in Russia. It's freezing cold. Why in the hell are you wearing dresses?"
~*~
"Did you hear?" a male voice asked someone down the hall.
"What?" someone snapped.
Jay stood still. That was the guy that she talked to last night.
"What's wrong, itty bitty?" Melinda asked. Jay just stood still.
"Kenny was robbed last night. They took our Weight Rings." The first said.
"Oh really."
"Yeah."
"Do we know who took them?" he asked. Jay 'eeped' again, accidentally getting Kai's attention. He moved from where he and Rei were standing, with his bag hung over his shoulder, and started to look around. He saw Jay and Melinda quickly pass him.
"There're in a rush." Rei chuckled. "And no, we don't know who took them."
Kai just stared at Melinda and Jay, who were still running.
~*~
"Stop, Jay!" Melinda called once Jay had dragged her far past their room. Jay finally stopped, and looked behind them quickly. "You took their pieces, didn't you? That's where you got the Weight Disks that you were using last night, isn't it?" Melinda yelled.
"Fine, I did. But they were so advanced and we needed them." Jay said.
"Dad said you couldn't travel if you stole again."
"I know. Please don't tell. I-I'll let you dress me up tomorrow. Please."
"Okay." Melinda smiled.
Jay looked at her weirdly. "That's it? You let me off that easily?"
"Yes. I get to dress you up tomorrow! I get to dress you up tomorrow!"
~*~
"What's wrong?" Rei asked Kai, but then smirked. "Did you see anything you like?"
"That was…." He started, but then noticed the look on Rei's face. "What?"
"That was what?"
"Never mind." Kai told him.
"Hey, are you guys ready yet?" Max asked from his door.
"We are." Rei said. "But Takao has lost his shooter."
"You're kidding, right?"
"No." Kai snapped. Max moaned and headed for the room.
"We'll be waiting in the lobby." Rei said and he and Kai started to walk back down.
~*~
Five minutes later, both teams were ready to go.
And, they were both waiting in the lobby.
"I can't wait!" Marree exclaimed as she and Madison jumped around, though they were finding it hard to in the shoes they were wearing. They were now also rugged up in big, light brown fur coats.
"Neither can I! We, the Feminine Bladers will rule!" Madison giggled.
'Feminine Bladers?' Kai thought to himself as he remembered what he was told that night.
"Her name is Marree, she's my older sister, she's seventeen, she's an identical triplet, and part of the Feminine Bladers Team, of which she and my other two sisters came up with. Her Bit Beast is the Unicorn, called Precious, she has blonde hair, blue eyes, blah blah blah."
Kai looked Marree and her sister over. 'Blonde hair, blue eyes, she's that girl's sister.' Kai thought to himself, though he wasn't quite sure which one was Marree.
"What's up?" Takao asked, coming up next to Kai, who shook his
head.
"Nothing."
"You seem more spaced out than usual. You ready to go?"
"Not yet."
"You want to wait for something?" Takao asked out of confusion.
"Their little sister came into our room last night." Kai said, nodding his head to the two sisters.
"Wow. That'd be so confusing." Takao said as he tried to find a difference between the two sisters.
"Yes. There's another, too. They're identical triplets."
"How long did she stay, exactly?"
"Not too long."
"Come on, Melinda! We have to hurry!" Jay called from the elevator door as her big sister chose to take the lift instead of the stairs. Jay was now in a long black coat with gloves that didn't cover her fingers.
"I can't! These heels are hell!" Melinda cried.
"We're going to miss the bus if you don't hurry up. I'll wait in the lobby, kay?" Jay asked, but instead of waiting for an answer, she rushed over to where her sisters were standing, but then groaned. "Do you have any idea how much attention you're drawing to yourself?" she asked.
"What do you mean?" Marree asked.
"You two are parading around here in the skimpiest number you could find, aren't you?"
"No, not really." Madison said.
"How is it that I'm the only one with brains, yet you three are older?"
"You really think so little of us." Marree said with her eye sin little slits.
"Oh Marree! Madison! Would you wait up?" Melinda called from the other side of the lobby.
"Well, we haven't moved, so we have been waiting." Jay pointed out, her voice making Kai look up.
"I'm guessing that's her." Takao chuckled. "So what's got you so interested?"
"She's awesome with her Beyblade."
"She's a Beyblader?"
"Yeah." Kai said. "She and her sisters are in a team together."
"Do you think we'll have to blade against them?"
"I wouldn't be surprised."
"I could have walked there by now." Jay groaned to her older sisters. "But no, you three just had to bring along all the clothes from your closet. Why did mum have to be rich?"
"Because she wants the best for us." Marree said ostentatiously.
"Oh really? Then why am I stuck in a trailer?"
"You chose to go with dad." Madison said. "And mum refuses to have anything to do with him."
"So
you don't get paid or anything like we do." Melinda smiled, then realised that
this wasn't a happy time. "Oops."
"Yes." Marree snapped. "Oops indeed."
"I'll go wait for the bus." Melinda said quietly with her head down and left.
~*~
Kenny sat outside the hotel as he waited for the bus to arrive. He sat with his laptop in his lap, talking to Dizzi.
"Do you think we have a chance at winning?" he asked the trapped Bit Beast.
"Sure you do. You guys are the best in Japan and the world, and you will continue to be the best." Dizzi answered.
"Thanks."
"Hey, Chief." Max said, coming outside the hotel. "I just got off the phone with mum! She said that she and the All Starz are coming!"
"That's great. That's another team that we know."
"Yeah. The All Starz and the Demolition Boys."
"I think that if the All Starz are coming, then the White Tigers should be coming, too." Kenny thought out aloud.
"Probably."
"That'll be interesting. I wonder how much they've improved."
"I can't wait! The tournament's gonna be huge and so cool!" Max said happily and stretched his arms out. "And mum will see me, and dad'll be there to watch, and Takao's grandpa is coming."
"I
wonder if they'll show it on television." Kenny said just as the bus pulled up
at the front of the hotel.
The thing that intrigued everyone the most about the bus is that it seemed like
a cross between a bus and a limousine. The bus was long, and painted black with
all the windows tinted, but it was as high as your average bus. Max talked to
his mother's team while Kenny went to find Takao, Rei and Kai, who were still
in the hotel.
~*~
"Hey, guys!" Kenny yelled as he ran in. He stopped in front of Takao and bent over to catch his breath. "The bus is here." He told them. Takao nodded with a smile and started to walk out, followed by Rei. When they noticed that Kai wasn't following, they stopped.
"What's up?" Takao asked. Kai nodded towards Jay.
"She looks familiar." He said.
"Well, she does look like she's that girls' sister," Takao pointed out, "Maybe she's the girl from last night."
"Yeah, she is, but it was too dark to see her face. All that I noticed was brown hair."
"Then how can you tell that it's her?" Rei asked with humour. "She has her hair up."
"We talked for a little while. That's her voice." Kai said, almost with a snap.
"Okay." Rei said and then left.
"So how can she look familiar if you've never seen her face before?" Takao asked. Kai shook his head and started towards the door, but Takao pushed him back so he'd get onto the bus first.
"Child." Kai groaned and started to walk again. He was yet again pushed, but this time by a tall blonde girl, who seemed more like a blur.
"The bus is here!" she announced loudly once she was standing next to the rest of the triplets. Kai blinked before he shook his head again, but then braced himself as they all started to rush for the door. He quickly moved aside, but still got knocked, this time completely over. He fell down to the ground with a loud thud.
~*~
"Oh, jeez!" Jay cried in shock as she watched Kai fall over after being charged by her three older sisters, who could run pretty well in high-heeled shoes. She rushed over to Kai. "Are you alright?" she asked. Kai sat up and looked at her in question. "I'm so sorry about my sisters. They never know when to act their own age." Jay leant down and helped him up. She was lucky that Kai didn't feel her slip something into his jeans pocket.
"Err, thankyou." Kai said. Jay realised who he was by his voice and 'eeped' again. She started to back away when she realised just how familiar he looked.
'How the hell do I know him?' Jay thought to herself. Once he was steady, she grabbed her stuff and walked out of the door, all in a hastened pace.
~*~
"Hello, we were waiting for you!" Takao snapped as Kai walked out of the hotel.
"Do I ever snap at you when you're late?" Kai snapped.
"Well, yeah…." Takao started, but stopped when he realised that Kai wasn't listening. "Hey, you should see who's here." Takao said, changing the subject. "We have: the White Tigers, the All Starz, the Majestics, and, much to Kenny's detest, the Dark Bladers." Takao pointed to all the teams that they already knew about. "And then there's some that we don't really know."
A girl from one team stood. Her hair was dark brown, about as dark as Jay's only she had a red tinge to it to imply she had dyed it once or twice. "My name is Sassy," she introduced herself, "and this is my team, the Star Strikers. We have," one girl stood up. She was definitely Sassy's younger sister. She had long brown hair with two bright pink streaks through her hair, one on each side of her head, "this is Nikki," another stood up. She had black hair that reached her back, but that was tied up in a single ponytail. "This is Shelvia." And then the last stood. She was visibly the youngest by far, and stood very short. "And this is Robyn. We're the greatest team in Australia." Sassy said very proudly. She and her team sat back down. She then glared over to the triplets who were flirting with all the other boys in the bus.
"Okay, people, we just need to go out and get the Demolition Boys, so hang on." The driver said and started off. Instantly, the triplets stopped all flirting and looked towards Jay.
"That means…" Melinda started in a whisper.
"Yeah. But did you notice who we knocked over?" Marree asked, though louder than she wanted. She noticed the glare she got from Jay.
"It depends on which person, out of the few hundred, that you knocked over." Jay almost snarled.
"So who are you?" Kenny asked as he turned to face her. He blinked a couple of times to make sure he was seeing properly once he saw the triplets.
The bus had seats on the side, which were facing each other and could fit in four or five. There was about eight of them. All the present teams filled up them, with the exception of the Feminine Bladers, who sat on a four-seater that was at the back. On one side, from the front, there was the Star Strikers, then the White Tigers and Bladebreakers. The other side had the Majestics, Dark Bladers and then the All Starz.
"I'm Jay, this is," Jay said, putting her hand out in the direction of her older sisters, "my older sisters, in order of age and how they're sitting, Marree, Madison and Melinda. And we are the Feminine Bladers, mind you, they thought it up."
"How can you tell the difference?" Emily, who was sitting closest to them, asked. She leant forward to look at them properly. Emily had changed over the years and now had blonde streaks going through her hair over her orange hair.
"Okay, one thing, this is not a zoo or a museum, so stop treating them like an exhibit. Second thing, Marree is at least sane, Madison is there, but the lights aren't on and Melinda just a plain airhead." (I know that people say that the lights are on but no one's home. This is just to say that she's sane, but doesn't act it.)
"I'm not an airhead." Melinda snapped.
"And which one was the one that knocked me the first time?" Kai asked angrily.
Melinda put her hand up with a giggle. "That would be me!"
"And there's my proof." Jay mumbled. "And I'm sorry that you had to get stuck like that." Marree, Madison and Melinda all giggled. "What?"
"Nothing." The three chimed.
"Where are you guys from?" Michael from the All Starz asked.
"Well, us three live with our incredibly rich mother in Japan, while our poor little sister is stuck with our less than average earning father. They live wherever they want to go. Our father owns a caravan." Marree said.
"Though it would be good if she would stay there for a little while." Melinda smiled, but then stopped when she realised it wasn't happy time again. "Oops."
"Yes it is oops." Madison said.
"I live all over the world now, but I grew up here, in Moscow." Jay said, earning a few more giggles from her sisters. "What?" Jay demanded as she started to get angry with her annoying sisters.
"Nothing." They all chimed again.
"So, how come we haven't faced any of you guys as of yet?" Mariah, from the White Tigers team, asked the Star Strikers and the Feminine Bladers.
"Well, we were told by the Beyblade Association that because we have someone who wasn't born in Australia that we couldn't go to any championship and represent Australia." Shelvia explained.
"We weren't exactly a team until last month." Marree said.
"Jay kept running away from the trailer…. Oops again." Melinda said quietly.
"My father wasn't pleased with my behaviour to say the least." Jay said, sending a glare over to Melinda, who shuddered. The large bus stopped. Jay looked out of a window of the bus to see a large building that made her shiver.
'What the…' she thought, and looked over to Kai. She watched as all the Demolition Boys walked out of the building towards the bus.
"Just be calm." Marree whispered to Jay in her other voice. "If he does or says anything," Marree pulled her handbag out in front of Jay's face, then pulled out lipstick and a mirror, "then he'll be wearing more makeup than all of us put together."
"Either that or we'll kiss him." Madison giggled.
Marree left her serious face and started to gossip along with Madison again.
Jay breathed in deeply as she prepared herself. She didn't want history to repeat itself.
~*~
Oooh. What's up with Jay and these Demolition Boys? Keep in touch and find out!!
