"This is talking"
"These are thoughts"
Tyson threw his backpack over his shoulder as he ran out of the room, joining his friends, along with all the other passengers on the cruise ship, on the deck.
It turned out the bang Kai had heard when the boat first set sail had been from the engine. The enginers had thought they had fixed it, but that morning it had blown, causing a hole to appear in the hull.
"Stick together guys, with all the panic we could get separated," Ray warned, looking as the other passengers began pushing and shoving towards the lifeboats. Reena had no problem with getting lost, she instintly grabbed Ray's arm, and didn't look like she was planing on letting go any time soon.
The all stood near the edge of the deck, Tina looking over the edge. She gulped as she looked at the waves, thrashing about in the stormy weather, which seemed to appear out of nowere. "Why can't I stop thinking of the Titanic?" She thought to herself. Suddenly, a stranger shoved her, trying to get past, and before she knew it, she was falling over the edge of the ship.
Tyson looked over at the last second, and his heart began to race. "Tina!" He called, and without another thought, leapt off the ship after her.
"Have no fear Marina's here!" Marina called, heading to jump over the edge, but as she did, Max caught her hand.
"Marina you can't swim!" Max yelled at her.
"Oh ya..." Marina said, scratching the back of her head and grinning sheepishly. She felt a sudden jerk and looked up to see Max had fallen off the edge while trying to pull her up, but Ray had caught his foot. He was able to get Reena to stand a bit farther back.
Kai went over and tried to help Ray get the two up from the side of the ship but...disaster. Reena decided to help. Unfortunately, she hadn't noticed the tangled up ropes and tripped on them, knocking them all into the icy cold water.
On the East side of an abandoned island...
-----------
Tyson fell to his knees, breathing heavily, as he reached an island, laying Tina down on the warm sand. He smiled when he saw she was still breathing, and she didn't seem injured. He looked back in the direction of the boat, but didn't see it. "I hope the others are ok..." He thought to himself, sitting down next to the unconscious form of Tina.
The beach was desserted, apart from a few rocks and crabs, and all he could see in front of him was sea, sea and more sea. Behind him a think forest seemed to spring up, so thick Tyson couldn't see very far in from were he was.
He took out his Beyblade and looked at the picture of Dragoon. "You ok buddy?" He said shaking some of the water off it.
A soft glow appeared on the bit chip and Dragoon began to emerge, growing until he was slightly taller then Tyson then stopping. "I felt like I've swallowed half the sea and I'm positive there are fish swimming around my head, but other then that, ya I'm ok." Dragoon said with a smile.
Tyson smiled back at the Bitbeast. "Well, as soon as Tina wake up, we'll have to find a way home. Think you could fly us there?"
"No problem!" Dragoon said confidently. "I'll just make myself bigger and..." The dragon bitbeast paused for a second and looked itself over and frowned. "Uh..."
Tyon watched on, confused. "What's the matter?"
"I...can't get any bigger, theres a strange power on this island stopping me," Dragoon said in a slightly shocked voice.
Tyson groaned. There was no way Dragoon could carry either of them at the size he was at. "Looks like our only option is to find a way off this island the hard way."
Dragoon tilted his head. "You mean an S.O.S. in a bottle?"
"No! We'll have to search the island," Tyson said shaking his head. "Sometimes my bitbeast can be so dense."
On the West side of the island...
-----------
Kai opened his eyes and goraned, sitting up. The last thing he remembered was falling off the ship and into the water. Soon afterwards he, along with Ray and Reena, had spotted an island nearby. They had lost sight of Max, Tyson, Marina and Tina earlier when they first left the ship, and know they and knew they were all split up.
A soft glow came from Kai's pocket before a tiny Dranzer jumped out, growing slightly so it was a little taller then Kai. "Were are we? What's going on? Were's the food?"
Kai sighed and looked at his bitbeast. "I don't know were we are Dranzer." He said simply as he stood up, looking around. Ray was still asleep a short distance away and so was Reena, who hadn't let go of Ray's arm since they fell into the water. "Dranzer, see if you can come in contact wth Dragoon."
Dranzer ruffled his feathers slightly. "Alway's bossing me around..." Dranzer mumbled, which was a complete lie. If Dranzer wasn't fighting, he was being lazy or talking to Dragoon. He sighed and closed his eyes, trying to concentrate. "It's no good, I can't contact him." He said sadly, looking around. "I don't like this place..."
Kai looked over to were Ray and Reena. "Well we better get going, as soon as they wake up that is."
On the South side of the island...
-----------
"Marina I don't think you should eat that."
"Why not Max?"
"Because... it's still alive"
"Eww!" Marina yelled, through a beached fish away ino the sea. "Gross!"
"Don't worry about it, we still have some food in our bags from the ship, and they were wrapped up, so they couldn't have gotton wet." Max said walking over next to Marina and handing her a chocolate bar.
Back to Tyson and Tina, the end of the day...
-----------
"Tyson, I don't like this place..." Tina said looking around at the surronding trees. "It's so dark, we could be followed and we wouldn't notice."
"Hey, take it easy," Tyson said as Dragoon used his long claws to cut some vines out of their way. "Just stick together and we'll be ok, we've got Dragoon on our side."
Tina sighed and looked and her pocket, were her Beyblade was. "I wish I had a Bitbeast, I wouldn't be so worried then..." She thought. She suddenly realised how tired she was and groaned, sitting down on a tree truck. "Can't we stop, just for a minute?"
"We can't stop her in the open, it could be dangerous," Tyson said, clearly worried for Tina's safety. "We need to find a place to stay for the night, Dragoon, any idea's?"
The blue dragon looked back at his Beyblader for a minute then around. "Maybe there's a place in the trees, I'll check it out." He said flying upwards and into the trees.
Tina looked around, much more nervous now that Dragoon wasn't there. She stood up again and walked over to Tyson, somehow feeling safer when he was near her. She didn't realise she was absentmindedly holding his hand, she was too busy thinking of all the bad thing that could happen.
Tyson could face burning with embarrassment as he looked down at her hand. He didn't see the big deal, why was he embarrassed? Maybe it was because he liked her that made it weird. All the same, he didn't pull his hand away, but found it hard to look at her.
Dragoon came back after a few minutes and landed next to them. "Ther is somewere you could stay, part of the tree is hollow a little farther up, and it's well sheltered from the wind and stuff."
Tina looked back and suddenly realised what she was doing, and pulled her hand away, blushing. She looked at Tyson, who smiled at her, and only made her blush more.
Tyson sighed and looked at his friend. "Alright Dragoon, lead the way."
Tina looked at him and frowned. "But that's not fair. You take it and I'll find somewere else."
"Nah you take it."
"You."
"You."
"You."
"You."
"Shut up!" Dragoon yelled and the two of them fell silent. "Why don't you share? It's not that small." The Dragoon said, looking from one to the other.
Tyson and Tina looked at each other then looked away. "Ya ok." "Sure." They both said, blushing slightly.
Meanwhile with Kai, Ray and Reena...
-----------
"Ray...I don't like this forest..." Reena said in a shaky voice, clinging to Ray's arm like she had been for the past few hours.
"I know Reena..." Ray said in an annoyed tone rolling his eyes. She had been saying that since they had entered the forest, jungle, whatever it was, and his arm was growing numb.
"And I'm not scared, if that's what you're thinking!" Reena said.
"I know Reena." Ray said again. "You don't need to keep telling me."
There was suddenly a loud shreeching sound rung out and Reena screamed jumping into Ray's arms. Ray stumbled back unexpectedly and looked around, only to see Kai and Dranzer laughing at them as they leaned against nearby trees. "It was Dranzer wasn't it?" he asked in an annoyed tone.
"You should have seen your faces!" Kai said through laughs, trying to calm himself down. Drigger had been walking behind them and was trying himself not to laugh.
Reena looked at Ray and smiled while he wasn't looking. She didn't want him to put her down. "Hope he doesn't notice" ((How thick can ya get?))
Ray looked at Reena and blushed slightly, puting her down, only for her to cling to his arm again. "We better set up for the night, it's getting late."
When Dranzer, Drigger and kai had finnally calmed down, Dranzer oblieged by ripping off and bunch of tree branches with his beak and setting them alight to make a fire. Drigger offered to stand gaurd as long as he got to sleep the next day in his Beyblade. Ray leaned against a tree, shutting his eyes to got to sleep. He heard some rustling and when he opened his ees, he found Reena sitting next to him, leaning her head on his shoulder, already asleep. He smiled at her and, before he himself feel asleep, whispered softly to her. "Sweet dreams Reena..."
To Be Continued
-----------
Yay! Long chappy!
Ok, to be honest, I'm not that bothered to to Max and Marina, they don't make as good a couple as the others ^^;;
Now I've decided that it's not far to leave Kai out, so he is gonna be paired. I just thought it'd be unfair on him to leave him by himself, he'd be lonely!
Well I haven't got much else to say right now. Please review. Pwetty pwease! Slán!
Bay Bay!
