Chapter um, uh 11? Yes, Chapter 11: Let the Tournament Begin!

"Are you sure this is the right way Johnny?"

"Positive."

"Only fools are positive."

"Damn you."

"It's not my fault I'm always right."

"Is so, smart ass."

"Touchy, touchy."

"Stop bothering me! I'm trying to read the map!"

"We're going the wrong way!"

"No we're not!"

"Yes we are, we've passed that street three times in the last five minutes!"

"No we haven't. You're just seeing things!"

"We're going around in circles!"

"We are not!"

"Johnny, give me that!"

"No way!"

"Yes way, now give me the map, you're reading it all wrong!"

"I'm quite capable of reading a map!"

"No you're not!"

"Are so!"

"Are not! The map's upside down you idiot."

"I knew that."

"* Sure * you did."

"You two stop acting like kindergarten children! Can't you stop arguing for three seconds?" Rah'aru's voice stopped the argument, his dark purple eyes glaring at the two of them. Chaz put on a very sulky face, and poked Johnny in the ribs. "He started it." Johnny growled softly. "No I didn't, she did!" Chaz was about to respond, when Rah'aru cut in, snatching the map from Johnny. "We are the Wales team, and we're going to show up late for the tournament that we're hosting!" Rah'aru said with a scowl, before turning on his heel and starting to read the map. Chaz mimicked him for a moment, making Johnny start snickering, which only got both of them a death glare from Rah'aru. Tala smirked, as he came up behind the two, who had their hands over their mouths to stop themselves from bursting out laughing. "What's going on here?" Tala asked, raising an eyebrow. "Mr. Toilet paper head just threw as spaz. Said we were going to be late. I prefer to be 'fashionably late.'" Chaz replied, gazing at Rah'aru. It wasn't the first time she had made fun of his turban. Tala made an obvious effort to keep his face straight, but it did him no good. His face burst into a wide grin, amused by Chaz's antics. She had kept her voice low enough that Rah'aru probably didn't hear, but you could never be too sure. That Egyptian boy was full of surprises. "Are you guys coming or not?" Rah'aru's irritated voice came from farther up the street, and the three ran after him.

It took the team two hours to actually find the stadium, as Johnny had got them hopelessly lost, and Rah'aru couldn't figure out where they were. When they got there, they heard the announcement of the order of teams. Each team would go, one by one, against the Black Dragon team. They took a seat on the bench, awaiting the announcement. The Jazzman was the one who was going to announce it. "Ladies and gentlemen! The first team that is up against the Black Dragons is...the All Starz!" "I swear I will kill that guy if it's the last thing I do." Johnny murmured, and Chaz and Tala smirked. "I don't know Johnny. He does look better than you." Chaz said teasingly. Tala and Chaz both knew that Johnny was very sensitive about the way he looked, and Chaz often commented on this just to get him angry. "He what?!" Johnny answered, glaring at Chaz. Tala sighed, and shook his head, as the two started another argument. 'Honestly,' he thought, 'those two are always fighting. It is rather amusing though." He mused; gazing at the two who were arguing fiercely about something or other that Tala didn't even pay attention to. The Jazzman's voice interrupted Johnny and Chaz's arguing match. "Alright, so the All Starz have sent Steven up as their first blader. Whom will the Black Dragons send up?" "I'm going." Rah'aru said, getting up. "I cannot stand listening to you two bicker any longer without getting a head ache." Rah'aru walked up to the dish, and Chaz stuck out her tongue. "Aw, why did he have to go? I wanted to kick that guy's butt!" She looked at Steve, before standing up and yelling, "Green hair only looks good on Kevin!" (A/N: it's true!) She sat down, as Johnny and Tala burst into fits of laughter. Steven glared at Chaz, before walking up to his side of the dish.

~Rah'aru's P.O.V.~

Urg! Chaz annoyed the death out of me, and I was sure it was purposeful. If she wasn't making jokes about me, she was arguing with Johnny. Those two never stopped arguing over stupid little things. They made me so ticked off. I was alerted by the Jazzman's voice telling us to get ready. I held my launcher ready, and my opponent Steven did the same. I heard Chaz below 'Green hair only looks good on Kevin' behind me, and I shook my head. I couldn't help but smirk. Her and her big mouth. It would get her into trouble one day. I heard our names being announced. "In this match it's Steven the football king versus Rah'aru, the boy of the desert." "He's as serious about Beyblading as he looks!" A.J. Topper commented, and I smirked. I heard the command to 'let is rip' and I launched my blade into the dish. Hmm, Steve had loaded his blade with attack rings. I smiled slightly, keeping my blade in the middle of the dish. Steve sent his right at mine, and I watched Wiciro move easily out of the way. This continued on for a while, as I watched the movements of his blade, searching for the spot I needed to hit. There, I had found it. "Wiciro, attack now!" My blade shot at Steve's; catching it at the precise angle I wanted to. Bingo. His blade flew out of the dish. It was a piece of cake. I picked up my blade, not really paying attention to the Jazzman's comments as I walked back to my team's bench and sat down.

"I'm going next." Chaz said, getting up and walking towards the dish. "Wow, that was an amazing win! And next up from the All Starz is Eddie! I'm sure he's hoping for a win, but his chances are pretty slim as he's facing Chaz, one of the only undefeated Beybladers in all of Wales!" Brad Best was now commentating. "Beybladers get ready...3...2...1...let is rip!" the Jazzman yelled, and both players launched their blades into the dish. In a couple of minutes, the battle was over. Chaz's blade remained spinning in the dish, while Eddie's had flown out and landed beside him. Chaz just smirked and picked up her blade from the dish. Eddie's was beside him on the ground. Chaz turned on her heel, and walked back to the bench. 'The was too easy.' She thought to herself, sitting down beside Tala. "You're up next." She said softly, and Tala nodded. He knew that. Johnny sent him a sulky face, and when Tala got up, Chaz poked him in the ribs. He growled softly, but Tala put up a hand to stop what would have been a fight. "You two, at least watch me, okay?" Tala said softly, and Chaz sent Johnny a sulky look, before nodding. "Okay Tala, we'll cheer you on!" She said, beaming. Tala went slightly red with this display of excitement. "Uh...thanks." He said, before walking up to the dish. Michael stepped up to his side of the dish. The battle was a quick one, Tala the victor by miles. He came back and sat deliberately in between Johnny and Chaz, his attempt to stop their quarrelling for at least a few minutes. Chaz yawned, flicking her tail in that cat-like way she had a habit of doing and closing her eyes as if she was tired. "That was a good waste of time. I could have been sleeping." She said, and Tala and Johnny sniggered. "I hope the next team is better." Johnny nodded. "I think Eddie was going easy on you." He said, an evil grin crossing his face. Chaz merely opened on eye, and sent him a Look. "Put a sock in it." She mumbled, yawning again. Then, the whole team was alerted by an announcement. "And the next opponent was going to be the Majestics, but it seems that they've forfeited." The surprise was in the Jazzman's voice, and the various murmurs from the crowd stated their surprise and confusion. "Johnny?" A voice had come from beside the bench and the Black Dragons looked towards it. It was Enrique and Oliver. "Johnny, we want to apologize, for not believing you." Enrique said softly, and Johnny sent him a questioning look. "Well, um..." Johnny looked at Chaz and Tala. Chaz gave him a look that plainly read 'it's up to you, not me' and Tala's wasn't much different. "Alright." Johnny said with a sigh, and Enrique and Oliver smiled. "Thanks pal." Oliver said softly, before Enrique gave him a small tug. "Come on, we had better get back. Robert will probably have my head for forfeiting for us." And with that, the two were gone. "Well, I'm glad that's settled." Rah'aru said, and Johnny nodded.
