One True Team
I want to thank you for reviewing me, reviewers! You've all really helped me to improve the story! And yes, I'm focusing more on beyblading this time! Still, a little romance will be around! Enjoy!
"Let's go! I'll take you and Ray on in a beybattle!"
"Are you sure about it Tyson?" Saber flung her waist long braid behind her back.
"Who are you kidding, Saber? Of course I am! Now let's go!"
"Okay," Kenny said as he opened up his laptop. "Whenever you're ready guys."
3 . . . . . 2. . . . 1. . . . Let it Rip!
"Let's go Dragoon!" Tyson shouted as he ripped his blade.
"Go Jagurah!" Lexis yelled.
"Come on, Panthera! Show them what you've got!" Saber replied.
"You can do it, Driger!" Ray exclaimed.
The four blades spun into action inside the dish.
"Let's do this! X-claw Collision!" Saber and Ray shouted. Driger and Panthera advanced towards Dragoon, proceeding to cream him.
"Back him up, Jagurah!" Jagurah spun in front of Panthera. "Jaguar Paw Scratch!" Panthera backed away from Jagurah.
"Oh great!" Saber exclaimed. "I don't think I can do it yet, Ray. I'm against Lexis right now."
"That's okay," Ray told her. "Cause I'm planning to take on Tyson. Driger, Tiger Claw Attack!"
"Dragoon, Phantom Hurricane!" The hurricane sucked up Driger, but using its Tiger Claws, Driger broke free of the hurricane and flew down right beside Panthera.
"Alright. X-claw Collision!" Driger rammed Dragoon to Panthera.
"Panthera! Scythe claw attack!" Panthera knocked Dragoon into Jagurah and both beyblades flew to the ground.
"Ah!" Tyson screamed in frustration.
"It's okay," Saber said. "I think you guys did a great job in battle. We've only got one more day before the championships start!"
"Tyson," Kenny said. "You and Lexis did a great job at defending and attacking others, but you guys need to practice the strategy more. Do you guys have a name for that?"
"Yeah," Lexis answered. "We could name it the DJ Destruction." (Sorry, not good with names!)
"You're going to kill DJ Jazzman?" Kenny asked shockingly.
"No!" Tyson snapped.
"DJ stands for Dragoon and Jagurah."
"Kids," Mr. Dickenson said as he entered the room. "I'm glad to say that we have signed up the teams in the championships and will be ready to battle tomorrow."
"Alright!" Max cheered.
"This is no time to be celebrating," Kai muttered. "We've got a lot of training to do. So quit the cheers."
"Man, can't you have a little fun here?" Tyson asked annoyingly.
"We can do that later," Solo answered.
"Meanwhile, lunch is almost ready. So you kids can finish up and get ready to eat."
"Hurray!" Tyson yelled. "Let's hurry up and eat!"
"Not so fast Tyson," Kenny said, pulling Tyson's neck collar so he couldn't escape. "I have to tell you guys what you need to work on. Okay, Tyson and Lexis, you guys need to practice your uh. . . . DJ Destruction- strategy. It's almost perfect, but you two need to work on the timing. Max and Terri, you're pretty good in you defenses, but you should have an attack plan for back up. Ray and Saber, you guys are pretty good with your attack plan. Dizzy suggests that you two wait for the right time to do the X-claw collision attack and you can work on another strategy for back up if you want. Kai and Solo, you guys are really good in your attack plan. You guys should also have another back up too. As for everyone, you should all still practice beyblading individually or with your teammate. You never know when you have to fight alone in case your partner's blade gets thrown out."
"Great!" Tyson groaned. "Now let's eat!"
"Okay," Max said. "Coming Terri?"
"You know it," Terri smiled as she walked next to Max. Ray and Saber laughed as the two of them raced each other out the door again. Kai and Solo walked quietly side by side while Kenny followed them out.
"Hey Lexis," Tyson called out. "You coming yet?"
"Not yet," Lexis answered. "I'm just going to clean up my beyblade first. You go on ahead and I'll meet you at the table in 1 minute."
"Okay," Tyson said. He ran off after Kenny, leaving Lexis alone in the training room. Lexis polished her beyblade, and then cleaned up the mess she had made. She sighed. Tyson was a really good teammate and friend, even though he was always hungry. He was someone she could get along with because of his humor and attitude. She blushed slightly when she remembered Tyson tickling her in the stomach and hugging her. Life was weird.
As Lexis walked across the room to the door, the door suddenly slammed shut. Running to the door, Lexis turned the knob. It was locked. She even tried busting it open with her shoulder. No luck. Then all of a sudden, smoke filled the room. Lexis started coughing. It was getting harder to breathe.
"Somebody open the door!" she yelled, as the smoke got heavier. Lexis started to see stars. But nobody opened the door nor heard her. Struggling to stay awake, Lexis saw an envelope slid through under the door. The smoke got even worst. Lexis felt dizzy as her knees buckled and her coughing grew worst. The last thing she saw before she blacked out on the floor was a smoke bomb next to the air vents.
"Where is she?" Tyson asked impatiently.
"Who? The waitress?" asked Max.
"No. I mean Lexis," Tyson answered. "She said she would meet me here in 1 minute, and 15 minutes has already passed by."
"Oooooooo," Saber sang in a songlike voice. "It looks like Tyson has a crush on Lexis."
"What!?" Tyson stuttered as his face turned pink.
"He's blushing," Ray teased.
"Uh. . . . . so what if I do? She's just a friend and a teammate. That's all!"
"And your girlfriend," Terri giggled. Everyone laughed except for Kai and Solo. Solo just kind of smirked while Kai had a twinkle in his eye.
"You better not let your girlfriend get in your way of training for the tournaments, Tyson," Kai sneered. It was his one way to get revenge on Tyson for teasing him and Solo.
"Ohhhhhhhhhh. . . . ." everyone chorused while Tyson's ears turned bright red.
"Very funny, Mr. Sour-pants," Tyson groaned.
"Watch what you call him," Solo warned teasingly. Kai smirked.
"But seriously, Lexis always arrives on time," Saber said.
"Do you think something could have happened to her?" Ray asked. Tyson got up.
"I'm going to look for her," he told them. "You guys keep eating."
"No problem," Ray and Saber said. Tyson walked down the hallway outside of the dining room. Lexis still had not shown up yet. He checked the hallways, the rooms, and the lobby to see if she was there. Nope. No sign of her.
Maybe she's training inside the training room, Tyson thought. He pressed the button to the elevator and went to the bottom level. "Lexis! Hey Lexis, where are you?" Tyson ran ahead to the training room, turning the knob. "Huh?" He turned around. He had thought there was somebody behind him. Shrugging, Tyson turned the knob to the door and went inside. "Lexis? Where are you? Ahh!" Tyson gasped when he saw Lexis lying on the floor faced down, unconscious. An envelope lay beside her. "Lexis!" Tyson ran up to her and knelt on the floor. "Lexis, you okay?" He brought Lexis up to a sitting position, supporting her back. "Lexis, wake up. . . . please. . . ."
"Mmph. . . ." Lexis groaned as she slowly opened her eyes. "What. . . . where am I? Tyson?"
"Lexis, are you okay?"
"What happened? Why do I feel so weak?" Lexis moaned as she tried to stand up. But she felt too dizzy to see and fell into Tyson's arms. "Gee, t- thanks."
"Did you pass out?"
"I think I did. . . . . Now I remember. I was cleaning up, and was about to go out the door when it was locked and smoke filled the room. A smoke bomb or something. Then there was an envelope."
"You mean that?" Tyson nodded his head towards the envelope. He was still holding Lexis and his hands were around her waist. Lexis nodded. "Can you try to stand?" Leaning on Tyson's shoulder, Lexis shakily got up.
"Thanks," Lexis smiled. And before Tyson knew it, she leaned forward and kissed him on the cheek. Tyson could only open his mouth and turn as red as a tomato. An entire red blush broke through his face. Lexis looked into his eyes, smiling. Tyson swayed a bit on his feet before reality returned to him. He could only think of one thing: the girl he had a crush on had just kissed him!
"Y-y-y-yo-your w-welcome," he answered dreamily. Lexis laughed. "Lexis, I really do like you," he confessed nervously.
"You're cute yourself," Lexis teased. She and Tyson laughed, completely forgetting about the envelope and the half opened door. "So," Lexis began after they stopped laughing. "What's in this envelope-" Lexis got cut off when she heard some laughing and giggling outside the room behind the door.
"Who's there?" Tyson demanded. The door opened as Saber and Ray fell into the room, laughing like a bunch of hyenas, along with Max and Terri, who had eaten too much sugar and was laughing like there was no tomorrow. The other door opened with Kai and Solo standing, evil smirks on their faces. And then, there was Kenny, who was holding Dizzy, both chuckling.
"So what did I say, Tyson?" Kai taunted. "Don't let your girlfriend get in your training for the championships." Solo laughed, eyes closed.
"There's love in the air when Tyson and Lexis is sitting in a tree," Saber and Ray chorused. "They're K-I-S-S-I-N-G-"
"Hold on a second," Tyson interrupted. "Lexis got locked in the training room and she got unconscious from a smoke bomb."
"What?" Terri gasped.
"It must be another present from the Russian mailer," Ray said as he finally stopped laughing.
"You okay, Lexis?" Max asked.
"Yeah, thanks to Tyson," Lexis smiled. Saber nudged Ray with her elbow as the two started laughing again.
"Tyson, let's see the envelope," Solo replied. Tyson threw her the envelope, which she easily caught between her second and third finger. Opening the envelope, she and Kai read the letter.
"Hope you enjoyed your black out, Lexis, cause next time, you won't be so lucky. Drop from the championships now, or you'll regret it, Bladebreakers and Wildcats," Solo and Kai read in unison. Tyson clenched a fist.
"Well, whoever is sending these threats ought to be prepared cause I'm going to let it rip!!" A growl comes from his stomach. "Right after I eat of course!" Terri, Max, and Kenny fell anime style while Ray, Saber, Solo and Kai sweat-dropped. Lexis just laughed.
"Come on, let's go," she said as she grabbed Tyson's arm and walked out the door. Tyson followed.
"Well, there goes a happy couple," Max breathed out.
"Yeah," Saber sighed. "I'll bet."
"While they're eating, let's practice a bit more. Tomorrow's the championships' start, and we have to be ready," Ray said. Solo and Kai nodded. Everyone began to practice beyblading, not aware of the danger that was yet to come.
