Here's Your Past, Present, and Future
"I'm glad you were able to over-come your past." Said Kai as Ray joined the rest of the Blade Breakers. "Thanks, Kai." Ray responded. "I've got something I've gotta admit," Kai told a surprised Ray. "I honestly don't feel like I'm a part of this group. You're the only sane one on this team aside from myself! I know we talk to each other some times, but I'm not sure if you consider me a friend." "What are you getting at, Kai? Are you saying you wanna be friends?" Ray asked. Kai nodded his head & grinned. He then extended his hand. Ray shook it & returned the smile. "Hey! Look at that chief!" Max said to Kenny. Looks like Ray & Kai might be becoming friends!" Kenny looked up from his laptop. He saw the new friends shaking hands. "Wow! I never knew that Kai had a heart!" He exclaimed. "Tyson's about to start his match with Lee!" Max announced. "But it looks like Mariah's getting' an earful from Lee first."
ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE BLADE BOWL.
"Mariah! You have brought shame upon your team!" Lee shouted. "What are you talking about, Lee?" She asked. "You lost to the traitor!" Lee responded. "He's not a traitor! You don't know HIS half of the story!" Mariah yelled back. "Nor do I want to hear it." Lee said calmly. "Now sit down & watch me pounce this geek. The White Tiger WILL be mine!" Just as Lee was walking toward the Blade Bowl, he saw the angry, crying pink-clad girl running right towards Ray.
BACK TO THE FIRST SIDE OF THE BLADE BOWL.
"Ray!" Mariah yelled as she ran. "Ray!" she said continually. She ran right up to him & hugged him as she cried. "Mariah!" said a shocked Ray. "Mariah! What's wrong?" He hugged her to try to calm her. "It's. it's. it's Lee! He (sniff) still won't believe that you're not a traitor!" she said through her tears. "He said I brought shame to the team by losing!" "Don't listen to him." He said as he hugged her tighter. "You did your best! Plus, you had TONS of fun in the mean time! That's all that matters! Lee's forgotten that this is just a game! His jealousy & anger have blinded him to that fact!" "You're right Ray." Mariah said, happier. She looked up at Ray & smiled. "And since he forgot that, I bet he'll loose!" "Is that what you're hoping for?" asked Kai. "Well, uh." Mariah blushed. "Should I tell them now, or later.?" She thought. "Uh, well." "Well, what? Do you think that Lee deserves Drigger? I don't." said Kai. "Neither do I." Mariah said confidently. "I.I." She then stammered. "You what?" Asked Ray gently. Mariah looked into Ray's eyes & she made up her mind; she was going to tell them. "I want to be a Blade Breaker!" She said with all the confidence she had within her. "YOU WHAT?!?!?!" Ray & Kai said simultaneously, with matching astonished looks on their faces. "I miss being on your team, Ray! Plus, you guys seem to be A LOT more fun-loving then those guys." She pointed behind her at the White Tigers. "You guys know how to have fun! That's what Lee & the others have forgotten! You even said that yourself! And we used to have SSSSSOOOO much fun when you were around. But now we only train. It's not fun anymore." "Wow. I didn't know how bad it was." Ray said. "Well, if being a Blade Breaker is what you want, then I'd be glad to have you on the team!" "Oh, really Ray? I'm so happy!" She said as she hugged Ray tighter. "Mariah?" Ray said. "Yes?" She looked up at him & smiled. "Could you possibly LOOSEN YOUR GRIP? I can BARELY breathe!!" "Oh! I'm so sorry! I'm just so happy to be with you again!" Mariah said as she let go. They both smiled. "You're forgetting one thing," said Kai, "what about the rest of our team? What will they say? Personally, as long as you're not a spy, I welcome you, too." "I think the rest of the team will welcome her, too!" Ray said happily. "Hey, what's up?" Max asked as he & Kenny walked over to the other three. "Mariah wants to be part of our team!" Ray said happily.
"What did you just say, Ray?" Lee shouted at his former teammate. "You heard him!" Mariah yelled. "I don't want to be a White Tiger ant more!" "Do you WANT to bring EVEN MORE shame to our team?" Lee shouted back. "Don't you get it, Lee? This is a game! You've forgotten how to have fun!" Mariah yelled back; on the verge of tears again. "That's why I want to be a Blade Breaker! They KNOW this is just a game! They know how to have fun!" Kai cleared his throat loudly. "Kai's in this to defend his title." Ray whispered to Mariah. "Oh." She whispered back. "Well," she yelled back at Lee. "All of them except for Kai do this for fun!" Lee rolled his eyes. "Fine! Leave us! But one day you KNOW you'll want to come back! In the meantime, I'll prove to you & the world that the White Tiger rightfully belongs to ME!" Lee shouted. Tyson yawned. "You won't get it." He said flatly. "What did you say?!" Lee shouted angrily. "Geese, you need a hearing-aid! I said, 'You won't get the White Tiger!' It belongs to Ray!" Tyson retorted. "Are you ready to let it rip?" the energetic ref yelled into his headset microphone. Tyson & Lee nodded their heads & got ready, fire burning in their eyes. "Alright! It all comes down to this!" The ref continued. "If Tyson of the Blade Breakers wins this round, then his team's going to the U.S.A. tournament! But if Lee of the White Tigers wins, then HIS team will be going to the good ol' U.S. of A.! Bladers ready? 3.2.1. LET IT RIP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
