Chapter Nine
Let's Beyblade!!
=A.J I have a question.=
+Yeah Brad?+
=How do these people survive in this country? The heat is unbearable!=
+I see what you mean Brad. And it's just going to get hotter as the competition has arrived at the Sacred Lotus stadium+
=You still haven't told how Indians survive in this weather=
+Air conditioning?+
Alia sweatdropped while slapping her forehead, "He Bhagvan(My God)!! They'll never learn, will they?"
Allison smirked, "If they did, we'd lose our funniest narrators." She sighed, wiping the sweat off her face, "Can we start now? I'm boiling."
Alia huffed, "Just wait till its afternoon. If you're boiling now, I can't imagine what state you'll be at noon." Allison glared at her as she snickered.
"You're Indian!! How do you keep cool?"
"Good air conditioning?"
"Try some thing else."
"Hot-headed personalities?"
"Bingo."
Max yawned as he glanced at the stadium. It was an open stadium with a lotus shaped roof. The sun blazed brightly and Max almost felt that it was smirking at them.
Stupid sun.
//It is unusually hot here, isn't it Master?//
/Yeah, I've noticed Draceil. I wish…/
//Hmmm…//
/I KNEW I should have brought sun-block/
//…//
Max leaned back into his seat as he watched people fill into the stadium. He felt someone breathe down his neck, "Need to cool down, Koi?"
Max smiled and said, without looking back, "Later."
"Is that a promise?"
"I'll let you decide that."
"Spoilsport," Ray said good-naturedly as he kissed the nape of Max's neck, making the blonde moan in delight.
"You guys, not in public please?" Tyson said as he slid into the seat next to Max. Ray scowled at him, "You're spoiling my fun!"
Tyson smiled, "Then I suggest you take out your pent-up anger and frustration to the competition," causing Ray to flush and Max to snicker.
Suddenly he felt something thing press against his neck. He leaped, landing right into…
Well, who do think?
Kai, duh.
"My my, why is it that you always seem to fall over me?" Kai asked smirked, causing Tyson to flush like a ripe tomato. Max smiled evilly and Ray just chuckled quietly.
Is it the weather or is everybody blushing?
Yup, It's the weather. ^_^
=First up are the Mystics versus the Gangstaz!!!=
+This is going to be a major cat-fight, isn't it Brad?+
=How so A.J?=
+Take a look down below+
"Hands off my boyfriend!!" Allison yelled, glaring daggers at the ebony haired girl[1].
Alia was in a similar state while she garbled Hindu curses under her breath as she kept a vice grip on her boyfriend. Kaleb and Jason just sweatdropped. Chris, on the other hand was clearly enjoying the attention.
"Ladies! Ladies! There's plenty of me to go around," he grinned, "Maybe I could take you all on a dr.." Suddenly he was yanked back Kaleb and Jason. They quickly duct-taped his mouth.
"Where did you get the duct-tape?" Kaleb asked.
"I borrowed it off Kenny."
- - - - - - -
=We have first up, Rumi Uede!=
+Rumi is the kind of person you never want to meet at a caffeine shop. However, her bit-beast Crewger tends to take you away by his Iron Grip attack that puts the pressure on the opponents!+
=Why is Rumi the kind of person you wouldn't want to meet in a caffeine shop?=
+Let me put it this way Brad. Have you ever seen a girl on sugar-high?+
"Wish me luck, guys!!" Rumi waved to her teammates.
"Go Ruru!!!" Isabelle cheered.
=And from the Gangstaz, we have Jason=
+Jason is a pretty much an easy going guy. With a really cool bike. It's chrome blue and has the latest--+
=A.J, the commentary is supposed to be about the Beyblader. Not his bike=
+Sorry. Got carried away. It's got 800 horse-power and…+
=A.J. You're doing it again=
+Sorry Brad. Anyways, his bit-beast Hammero really cuts through the competition!+
"Bladers, approach the dish," announced Jazzman.
"Hope you're ready Jason. Your 'so cool' bike can't save you from running away from Crewger," Rumi smirked, her russet eyes twinkling with anticipation.
"Don't worry. Hammero's gonna make sure you're all washed up!"
"Bladers ready? Alright then, LET—IT--RIIIIIP!!"
"Go Crewger!!"
"Show her what you're made of, Hammero!"
The two blades crashed into each other, showering sparks all over the dish.
Finally, Rumi noticed that this wasn't getting anywhere.
"Crewger, attack!!!" Rumi commanded as a large silver wolf with a blazing crimson gemstone at the centre of its forehead. Jason grinned.
"If that's how you want it fine!! Hammero, evade and counterattack!!"
Jason's sea-blue blade began to glow as a sleek hammer-head shark appeared.
It dodged Crewger's attack and raced towards Rumi's blade. Rumi grinned mysteriously. Suddenly, Crewger leaped on top of Hammero.
"Hammero!!"
=This looks bad for Jason. Crewger has a solid grip on Hammero, making the bit-beast or the blade unable to move!!=
"Now Crewger!! Iron Grip!!"
Crewger applied tremendous pressure onto Jason's beyblade. Suddenly, Crewger let go, sending Jason's blade skidding out of the dish.
+And Rumi wins this round for the Mystics!+
=Wow, that was some win. Do you think the Gangstaz have a chance?=
+If Allison and Alia are blading, yeah+
"Hey, what am I, chopped liver?" Chris whined.
"Don't worry Jason, we'll win," Allison assured her boyfriend.
"Count on it," Alia said, her eyes narrowed at the Mystics who were still giggling at the boys.
- - - - - - - - -
=Next is Astana from the Mystics!=
+Astana is a…nice girl+
=Why are you saying that as if you're not sure?+
+That girl had major chronic mood-swings+
"Wanna make something out of it!!" Astana yelled at A.J and Brad. They both began to cower under their seats. Rumi sweatdropped.
"Come on Astana, time to blade!" Isabelle said, trying to pacify the black haired girl. Astana huffed as she made her way to the dish as her teammates sweatdropped.
Sigh…What we would give to control her temper.
Amen to that.
=From the Gangstaz, we have Chris!!=
+Chris is one cool dude. With the biggest ego I have ever seen!+
Chris pouted, "I'll be nice and take that as a compliment."
=But his bit-beast Cerebus is no push-over!! Watch out for its Pyroclasm attack as it blasts anything within a 10 mile radius!!=
+Is that possible?+
=No, but at least it sounds nice=
Tyson whistled, "Ten mile radius? That's good. I wonder..."
He suddenly cut his sentence off, shuddering.
Hot.
Cold.
Hot.
Cold.
His body is changing temperature.
What's happening?
"Tyson?"
Tyson snapped out of his daze. That feeling had vanished. Where had it come from?
He looked at Kai, whose eyes were filled with concern. He managed a weak smile.
"I'm okay," He turned his smoky blue eyes back to the dish.
It hurt to look at Kai.
Will he ever heal?
"Bladers approach the dish."
"Be ready for your downfall Mr. Ego," Astana snapped at him, her ruby red eyes burning.
Chris grinned, an unknown sparkle in his turquoise eyes, "Only if you'll pick me up fair maiden."
Astana glared at him. Chris just smiled, only infuriating her more.
"Astana, keep your cool!! He's baiting you," Isabelle yelled.
Rumi shook her head, "Since when has Astana listened to anything we've said?"
Isabelle grinned sheepishly, rubbing her head, "It was worth a shot."
"Bladers ready? LET---IT---RIIIIIIIIIP!!!"
"Hydrascene, you're on!!"
"Cerebus, show her how a Gangsta blades."
The two blades lunged at each other. However, Chris's blade remained at the centre of the dish as Astana's blade circled around it.
"Come on and fight, you coward!" Astana yelled as her blade viciously attacked Chris's blade. Chris said nothing, folding his hands in contemplation. His eyes were focused on his blade. Astana was getting frustrated.
"That's it!! I'm tired of waiting!! Hydrascene, finish him with Dark Apocalypse!!"
=Looks like the end for Chris. Dark Apocalypse is Hydrascene's ultimate attack!!=
+Don't count your chickens before they hatch+
=What do chickens have to do with it?=
+Brad, you really have to watch more movies+
Chris raised his arms, "Now the time is ripe!! Cerebus, unleash your Pyroclasm!"
Suddenly an aura of flame surrounded the blade. And it grew, until it encompassed the dish. Hydrascene, unable to take the heat, was being pushed more and more until it had flown out of the dish.
=And Chris wins this round for the Gangstaz!=
"Yeah Chris!!" Alia yells as Allison cat-calls, "That'll show them!!"
Astana picked up her blade. When she looked up, she saw Chris holding out his hand.
Smiling, she shook it. The audience went wild.
Except for one blunette.
What was happening to him?
- -- - - -
=Both the Mystics and the Gangstaz have one win each. This will be the deciding round!=
+For the Mystics, we have Isabelle. Mind you, she may look sweet and nice, but her bit-beast Katana is her exact opposite as it is an ice-type!!+
=It's a showdown of the ice crowd!=
+Brad?+
=Yeah?=
+That wasn't funny+
=It wasn't meant to be=
=For the Gangstaz, we have Alia!=
+Alia is the kind of person you would meet at military camp. Her bit-beast Seline is the exact opposite, considering it's a swan!+
"Bladers, approach the dish."
"You're going down, I've never lost before and I'm not starting now," Isabelle said, her luke-warm blue eyes narrowing at her.
"Trust me, when I'm done with you, you'll wish you're the biggest loser on earth," Alia said, her violet eyes flashing.
"Bladers ready? LET—IT—RIIIIIIIP!!!"
"Katana!! Show her what we Mystics are made of!!"
"Seline, let's roll!!"
Both blades immediately started circling the dish before slamming into each other. The force was so great that both blades were nearly flung away from the dish. Each attack was more powerful than the last.
"Katana, show yourself! Ice Barrage!!"
A large lustrous snow leopard appeared, baring its fangs at Alia's blade as it prepared to launch its attack.
"Seline, dodge it!"
"Did Alia just do a defensive attack?" Allison said her mouth wide open. Chris, Kaleb and Jason nodded dumbly.
Well, you see something new everyday.
Seline gracefully dodged Katana's ice barrage. Alia smirked, "Now! Ice Sphere!!"
Seline screeched as the dish suddenly froze. Along with Isabelle's beyblade.
"Katana!!" Isabelle watched helplessly as her bit-beast tried to move.
"See the true power of winter. Seline attack!"
Seline rammed into Isabelle's blade. It was out of the dish in no time. Isabelle gently picked up her blade and smiled. And went back to her teammates.
No words needed.
=And the Gangstaz make it to the next round!=
+Brad?+
=Yeah?=
+How come it's so cold now?+
- -- - - - - - - -
=Now with the second half of this tournament, we have the Bladebreakers versus the Outsiders!=
+The Outsiders? What kinda name is that?+
=How should I know? I'm just the commentator!=
"How true," Max muttered as the Bladebreakers just sweatdropped.
=First up, is Max from the Bladebreakers!=
+Max is a teen whose regular diet revolves around *drum roll please* sugar!! But with Draceil as his bit-beast, he's a hard nut to crack!+
=Ah, but Harmoney is no walk in the park either. With her hawk bit-beast Whorl, she blows the competition away=
+Brad. That's a lousy pun+
=Hey, at least I'm trying!=
"Bladers, approach the dish"
"Wish me luck guys," Max said as he headed towards the dish. Ray blows him a kiss, making Max turn crimson.
"Wuhoo!!! Yaoi!!"
Suddenly Max found a short blonde girl staring at him intently, with stars in her eyes.
"Can I have your autograph? Pwease?"
Well, how could he refuse?
He signed, earning a whoop of delight from Harmoney (yes, the blonde girl is Harmoney) and finally they took their positions at the dish.
"Since you gave me your autograph, I'm inclined to go easy on you," Gone was the carefree look. It was replaced by a very disturbing scheming grin. Her emerald eyes shone.
Max grinned mysteriously, "Funny. I was thinking the same thing."
"Bladers ready? LET—IT—RIIIIP!!!!"
"Go Draceil!"
"Whorl, it's your time to soar!"
The two blades spun around the dish, alert and ready. Suddenly Harmoney summoned her bit-beast.
"Whorl!! Use Cyclone Weave!!"
A large copper colored hawk rose up and large winds were blown downwards on the dish.
Max panicked. The wind was strong enough to hurl Draceil out of the dish.
The winds grew stronger. Suddenly, an idea struck him.
"Draceil! Spin in one place now!"
Draceil obeyed and started to spin. Slowly the dish gave way and Draceil had made a small hole. Draceil went in the hole.
After a while, the winds began to die down. Harmoney scanned the dish.
"Hah! Draceil isn't in the dish!!" she smirked pointing at Max. Max shook his head like an exasperated teacher teaching the pupils.
"That's because Draceil is down there," Max pointed to the hole. Harmoney stared at the hole, her mouth open.
"Now Draceil, attack!!" Max commanded.
Quick as a flash, Draceil emerged from her hole and knocked Whorl out of the dish.
+And this round goes to Max of the Bladebreakers!+
=That was an interesting move to counter Whorl's Cyclone Weave=
+Miracles do happen+
=Huh?=
+You made an intelligent comment+
=Hah hah. Very funny=
- - - - - -- - -
=Next up is Ray versus Almie=
+Ray is one of those bladers who can sneak up to you without even noticing. And with his bit-beast Drigger, he's one of the most talented bladers around+
=Almie is one girl who can give you frost-bite by just talking to her. With her lynx bit-beast Arran, she'll show you how scary felines get in a cat-fight=
+Can't you sense the tension?+
=A.J, they're not even in the dish yet=
+Oh. I knew that+
"Bladers, approach the dish." (Yes, I know it's repetitive, but bear with me, please?)
"You're going down Ray," Almie said, her misty eyes gleaming.
"Well, I'm taking you down with me," Ray grinned as his golden eyes turn into cat-like slits.
"Bladers ready? LET—IT—RIIIIIIIP!!!!!!!!"
"Arran, go!!"
"Let's go Drigger!!"
The two bladers didn't waste time and immediately summoned their bit-beasts. Arran and Drigger began to scratch each other.
"This isn't good. They're at a standoff," Kai said, his burgundy eyes flashing. Tyson and Max said nothing, their attention focused solely at the battle. Kenny opened his laptop.
"Chief!! It's about time!! How long were you planning to leave me to rot in here?"
"Geez Dizzi, it was only two minutes."
"Two minutes for you. Eternity for me!!!"
Kenny sweatdropped and hastily changed the subject, "Can you see Ray and Almie's match?"
"Yeah, I can."
"Who has a bigger percentage at winning?"
"Right now Chief, I can't say. They both seem evenly matched."
"Now Arran, CatsEyes!!"
The aluminum colored lynx fixed a glare on the tiger bit-beast. Ray's blade suddenly froze in its position.
"Drigger!!"
"Now Arran!! Attack!!"
The aluminum and gold blade sped towards Ray's blade.
"Drigger, Warp Agility!"
Suddenly Drigger disappeared.
=Hey, is it just me or did Drigger just disappear?=
+It's probably you+
Almie growled, "Arran, hunt down that miserable fur-ball!!"
Ray's eyes became slits, "Nobody calls Drigger a fur-ball!!! Now Drigger!! Tiger Claw Attack!!"
Drigger suddenly appeared out of nowhere and whacked Almie's blade right out of the dish.
+And this round goes to Ray of the Bladebreakers!!+
=A.J, I'm pretty sure I saw it disappear!!=
+Brad, after this, I'm buying you spectacles+
- - - - - - - - - @@@
=Next up is Tyson versus Nanako=
+Tyson is the guy who won the World Championships a couple of years ago. He and Dragoon, the only storm bit-beast known in existence currently, are nearly unbeatable!+
=Ah, but Nanako is so stubborn that she might just refuse to lose! And with her bit-beast Laere might just win this one for the Outsiders=
"Bladers, approach the dish."
"I, like, am soooooo gonna kick your ass," she said, her black hair streaked with jade highlights swirled around her.
"My my, and here I was worried that I might have to go easy on you," Tyson smirked, his midnight blue eyes glowing.
Wait a sec…
Glowing?
That's NOT a good sign.
"Ready? LET IT RIIIIIIIP!!!!!!!!"
"Laere, show this kid what we're made of!!"
"Dragoon, show her why we're the World Champions!"
The deep navy blue blade spun eagerly at his Master's command.
And suddenly stopped at the middle of the dish.
=Here's something new. Dragoon has stopped moving=
+If you think that's weird, look at Tyson!!+
The Bladebreakers gasped. Tyson was immobile and around him, the air began to twist and turn. Suddenly, before anyone could even predict what was going to happen,
A full grown tornado had formed right inside the stadium.
And Tyson was trapped in the eye of the storm.
ME: Yes, I know it's a cliffie, but I have a valid reason!!!
CS: And that is?
ME: (sweatdrops) I like seeing people suffer?
CS: (turns to audience) She admits it!!!!! GET HER!!!!!!
Angry reviewers chase after Timmy.
ME: (gets on to her bike) See you later!!!
