Disclaimer: I really don't own this thing. Really!
Boris never, ever gives lectures, he makes his commands short, clear and threatening, so what he was doing now was as close to a lecture as one can get. He stood before his team, speaking with a low and dangerous voice.
"I want quick and decisive victories." He said, "The Indian team is no where near the Blade Breakers' abilities, but they would make good warm up practices. I want you to put some threat into your matches. Show the world the defeat last year was nothing but a little set back. Make this game worthwhile."
He paused to look at his silent team, and then he continued, "I want Tala to go first, then Spencer, and Peter, you can go last. And Tala, what is that you have to say?" He pronounced sharply when he saw Tala wince.
Tala didn't raise his head. He said very slowly, "Maybe Bryan can play the first round. His style can put the message through better than me."
Boris sneered, "No, Tala, you play the first match. And put some force into it. I know you are capable, so don't give me any excuses. Clear?"
Tala said nothing. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Blade Breakers sat on the watch stand and waited impatiently for the game to began. The coming game was between the Indian team the Green Fire and the Demolition Boys. The stadium was crowded and noisy. People were moving about like headless flies. They were still unsettled despite the fact the beyblade match will begin in five minutes.
"Hey!" Someone called faintly to them and shuffled near.
Tyson turned and called to his teammates, "Check out guys, it's the White Tigers!"
The group of Chinese beybladers came to them and took seats beside them. The Blade Breakers greeted their old friends warmly.
Tyson asked with a grin, "So you guys decide to check out the action as well?"
"Actually, we are here to check out the competition." Replied Lee, "Mariah had told us much to think about."
Kai said quietly, "I must give you more credit. You put your suspicions in the right place, it seems."
Lee laughed, "Our strategy is not that complicated, Kai. We are playing the winner of this match, that's why we are here."
"You are?" Max asked, interested, "How is your first game?"
Mariah smirked, "We took out the Canadian team in the blink of an eye. They are really not our standard. The home crowd was pretty disappointed. But then again, they know beyblade is not one of Canada's few strong sports."
Tyson asked, "Are you saying they are not good at all? That's hardly fair! You got to play an easy opponent."
Shea laughed, "Oh come on! We didn't have any trouble at all with the Australian team!"
No one spoke anymore, for the game had started. Below them both teams are getting ready to battle. Tala stepped up to the dish readied himself. His opponent did the same. When the familiar voiced announced the "Let it rip" sentence, both players launched their blades into the dish. Tala didn't waste a single moment to attack.
"Wolborg, finish this game now." He commanded in a cold tone.
His wolf beast soared from his blade and lunged at the opponent. It shredded the other beyblade to pieces, and easily won the match. The wolf bit-beast immediately began to absorb the other bit-beast. Eerie light slowly filled the dish. The Indian boy was silent. He was too astonished and did not react at once. When he finally realized what was happening he cried out fiercely and lunged and Tala. His teammates held him back firmly, though they all seemed raged.
It was over in seconds. Tala took his blade in his hand and walked back to his bench with a cold expression on his face. In the watch stand the Blade Breakers and the White Tigers watched in horror as the familiar scene played out before them. A dreadful silence assaulted the stadium. The audiences were stunned and speechless.
Tyson balled his fist and punched the air angrily, "That Tala! And I thought he would stop this!"
Ray replied quietly, "He would, Tyson, but I don't think he could."
The second match was no different. The Indian girl put up a good fight, and her fierceness even surprised Spencer. But soon it was over again, and her bit-beast was also taken. For the third match, a small- framed, dark-haired boy rose from the bench and walked up to the dish.
Upon the sight of this boy Kai narrowed his eyes and hissed, "It's him!"
"Who? What" Tyson asked, much bewildered.
Kai answered, "It the strange boy I told you about, the one who tempered with Mariah's horse and tried to take her beyblade."
The White Tigers looked at the boy, and a new light of dislike came to them. The boy of himself was oblivious----or at least pretended to be----to the animosity from the watch stand. He stood before the dish and was talking to the Indian bladers.
"Why don't we spice up the game a little?" He asked calmly, "I will take on the three of you left in a single match, and the winner takes all."
The Indian team was quick to a decision.
"Unbelievable!" AJ shouted to the crowd, "Peter from the Demolition Boys had just challenged the three remaining bladers of the Green Fire to a single sudden death match! And it seems they accepted!"
"Uh oh," Max said nervously, "This isn't good, I just know it."
Four blades launched into the dish, they sailed along the surface and soon were engaged in a head on battle.
Peter watched the three other blades that surrounded his own with mild interested. He yawned loudly, "This is too boring. Black Dranzer! Let's finish this pointless game!"
A dark bird rose from the black beyblade. It was a beast composed of fire and shadows, born and bred in darkness and it reeked of evil wills. Almost cowering before the evil creature, the three other blades retreated before the dark bird and finally stopped spinning altogether. Peter smirked as the Black Dranzer began to absorb the three other bit-beasts. There was a whirl of light, and soon it was calm again. The stadium was no longer silent, but filled with a murmur that seems frightened but angered.
Peter picked up his blade. He laughed and held it aloft. He turned to Kai and flashed the dark beyblade before the captain of the Blade Breakers. Kai jerked violently, he was shaking with fury.
"He will pay." Kai hissed through clenched teeth.
