Chapter 5
"Oh boy, I'm definitely starting to go crazy"Jacky said, when she saw Tala walk by her, the next day at school.
There was still a couple of weeks before the tournament, so Jacky planned to use the time she had wisely, and make any necessary changes in her beyblade.
One day when she was walking back from school, Jacky decided to take another road home, which seemed to be a very quiet and deserted place.As she passed by, she noticed old fashioned curtains pulled down as low as possible, to cover the windows.
"Finnaly, in all my years of searching, I found it. Quietville."
She tried to look inside the buildings, but everything was dark. As she passed the last building, Jacky never noticed that she already started walking on an old bridge, that stretched over a small stream. Suddenly, she felt herself collapse down, and down.......
Jacky hit the ground hard, groaning in pain.She managed to sit up, but was still too weak to stand up.She crawled to an old tree, and sat under, looking around.Her sneakers were soaking wet, probably because her feet landed in water.A quiet stream flowed in front of her, and behind it, woods.The place was, beautiful and mysterious. In about an hour, when Jacky was able to stand up, she made up her mind:
"Well Ray, I own this place."A small smile appeared on her face.
She came back here, everyday after school, to sit in peace and practice Master Dranzer, so she could find its true power, and claim it forever. She had to make sure that she wasn't followed, or else something bad would happen for sure.But one day she forgot.
Everyday that she came there, it made her fell at home, even more than the alley, that she wandered off previously.She sat under the old oak tree, looking down at the graceful flowing of the stream, and the quiet wind shaking the trees.In all of these thoughts, she got carried away, when she heard a familiar voice behind her.
"So this is where you come to be alone."
Jacky recognized the voice instantly. It could not be anyone, but Tala.
She looked back.
"What do you want? I already have enough troubles following me everywhere."
"Nothing."Tala answered.
"Hmph, as if."Jacky said.
" You are going to the beyblade tournament, right?"
"And you have a problem with that?"
" No, I guess I just chose to come here.But I don't know why."
"I hope you know that it was a waste of your, and especially my time. I come here to practice, before the tournament."
"Oh, you don't really need to."
"What?"
"No one, except for me, a boy named Ray, and a boy named Kai, are a challenge for you."
"And, how do you know that?'
"Let's just say, I hacked into the bba computer, and recorded all the information I needed, including the stats of all the people who entered. Too bad, they didn't count in the bitbeasts. Here take a look."
"Hmph.What are you Kenny?"
"I keep my bit in my beyblade, not a laptop."
" Whatever."
Tala showed Jacky some beyblader stats, when Jacky interrupted.
"Go, back."
Tala did.
" Just a bit more."
"That's Ray!"Jacky said with horror.
" You know him?"
"In a way, I've met him before."
"He's one of the top bladers known."Tala said
"Yeah."
He showed her some more, but Jacky didn't seem to listen anymore.
"Why did you stare at me like that?"Jacky said.
" Huh?"
" In the lunch room, about a week ago."
"Oh that, I recognized you right away.People talk of you as a legend."
"Well then, they're ancient."
Pretty soon Tala picked up his laptop which was amazingly small, and walked away.
"Oh yeah, and if you think I came here cause I like you, then you're sadly mistaken, my friend."Tala said.
"My enemy."Jacky whispered.
