"Hey cool it," Chin caro said brushing her self off. She looked back out the window and caught something. She pulled Gramps in. "You forgot someone."
"Hey dudes! What the hell did you guys think you were doing leaving me behind?" he said banging his Kendo stick on the floor.
"Cool it Gramps, we've been hard in thought," Tyson said sitting back on the bed.
"And training," Hilary said opening Dizzi. "We're studying our competitors."
"That's all well and good, but you know that hand to hand combat is nothing like Beyblading. Your opponent is much more unpredictable especially for you guys because this will be your first fight against many of these fighters," Chin caro said taking off her cloak.
"I see, but we should still find out all we can about our opponents," Hilary said continuing to type in Dizzi.
"We were starting with Ling Xiaoyu before you interrupted," Kai said leaning on the wall.
"Ling is a true martial artist even though she's only nineteen," Dizzi said.
"What's your point?" Chin caro replied.
"Yeah Dizzi dudette, Nanasi here is only seventeen and yet she could be classed as a true martial artist too," Gramps said in Chin caro's defence. Chin caro jumped up and clasped her hand over Gramps's mouth.
"Shh, we don't want them to know!" she said eyeing the room.
"I'm only reading what her file says," Dizzi retorted.
"What else does it say Dizzi?" Hilary asked.
"She was granted membership and a scholarship by Heihachi after the last tournament. I hear she left though because she was getting a bit bored, or maybe it was that she was going to leave if she didn't achieve much this tournament, she lost out in the quarter finals last tournament," Chin caro explained leaning on her arms as she lay on Hilary's bed.
"Okay, what about. let me see. Anna Williams?" Hilary asked as Dizzi bought the file onto the screen.
"Anna?" Chin caro said with a slight smirk. "You guys no doubt remember Nina?"
"Yeah, what about her?" Kai asked coldly.
"Her last name is Williams."
"What? No way!!! Anna is Nina's sister?" Tyson and Hilary exclaimed.
"Who'd have guessed?" Ray added shaking his head.
"Anna and Nina underwent a process of cryogenic freezing and were re awakened sixteen years later. Nina was an assassin, still is but Anna and her fought all the time. Hello they were sisters am I saying things that would be obvious?" Chin caro said rubbing her forehead.
Kai was thinking hard. 'What is it about Nanasi; she's not acting like Nanasi. This new character she's had to hide behind is changing her completely, but she seems really familiar too,' he thought to himself. He couldn't put his finger on it.
"Anyway, when they were awoken Nina had no memory of her sister which greatly disappointed Anna. Anna was never ever really that happy with Nina's assassin occupation, but she learnt to cope with it during their time before their freezing. However when they were awakened Anna didn't want Nina to return to her occupation as an assassin. She tried to help Nina with her memories but to no avail, Nina could not remember anything about her sister. Anna's obviously entered to try and rekindle Nina's memory again," Chin caro finished shrugging. "Has Nina entered?"
"Yes, but there's not much on her."
"You don't seriously expect Nina, an assassin to put her stats up for anyone do you?" Kai retorted.
"I suppose not," Hilary said looking back at the screen. "How about Julia Chang?"
"Hmm, I think I've met Michelle Chang, but I can't remember her having a daughter," Chin caro said standing up. "Give me a look at that." Hilary moved over so that Chin caro could sit down.
"I see Michelle has gone missing too. She hasn't entered the tournament. Says here that Julia was found by Michelle and raised as an American Indian. She learnt the same technique of martial arts as Michelle and now seeks out her adopted mother. Poor girl, I'll have to meet up with her and offer my condolences," Chin caro said with a sigh.
"Now the next competitor on the list is Jin, good old Jin."
"Who's Jin? How do you know him?" Tyson asked.
"Don't you remember that story Chin caro told us back home?"
"Oh yeah, never mind," Tyson said rubbing the back of his head from where Gramps hit him with his Kendo stick.
"He is one tough customer, a good friend though. When he wants to be, he managed to nab my battle costume from Mishima's holding house. Mishima hasn't seen it yet so he shouldn't recognise me just yet," Chin caro said pressing a key.
"Who's next then?" Ray asked.
"How about those guys we saw at the entrance today?" Tyson said taking an apple.
Chin caro growled.
"What? Obviously you're afraid of them then," Kai replied smugly.
"Watch what you say," Chin caro hissed.
'That's the Nanasi I know,' Kai thought to himself with a smirk. She typed a name into Dizzi.
"This is Fox," she said turning the screen around so they could all see. "He's not your average human."
"Oh my gosh!" Dizzi said as she played the video. Fox was undergoing some kind of transformation.
"That explains his name," Ray said as Fox finished transforming into a yellow fox.
"He's a vicious killing machine, he shows no mercy and enjoys seeing his victims in pain," Chin caro explained as the video of Fox played through. "He works for a corporation called Tylon who study the actions and experiment on a species called Zoanthrope; these people have the ability to transform into animals."
"Okay, but how come you're running from them then?" Kai asked snidely. Chin caro looked up and narrowed her eyes at him.
"Trust me, you don't really want to know," she said in a deathly whisper.
"Right, anyway, what about the other guy?" Hilary asked seeing the sticky situation rising. Chin caro typed away on Dizzi.
"Ah. nice soft keystrokes, I like your style," Dizzi said as Chin caro finished typing.
"Thanks, this is Bakuryu, top hit man of Tylon. Obviously a good friend of Fox. Don't let his age fool you, he beat me once upon a time," she said remembering as the video played.
"What's his transformation?" Tyson asked watching as Bakuryu began to glow. He changed into a strange creature with large paws and sharp claws. Ray laughed.
"A mole? What kind of a deadly beast is that?" he laughed.
"Watch," was Chin caro's reply. He charged at his opponent and ripped into their attack, knocking them unconscious. Ray stopped laughing.
"I see," Kai said shutting his eyes again.
"I certainly hope you do Kai, this is getting serious, one wrong move and any one of you won't be left standing on your own two feet," Chin caro said typing again.
"Hey, you know I saw a guy out there that looked no older than us," Ray said thinking back to when they were walking into the stadium. He hadn't been able to see him properly because he disappeared into the crowd.
"His name is Yukichi Isarugi," Chin caro replied typing into the computer.
"Is he a friend of Henna's?" Hilary asked.
"More like a comrade, he works for Mishima, treats him like a son apparently. He even managed to give him a bit beast according to this, Windeleion," Chin caro said glancing at the screen.
"Whoa! That is one powerful Bit beast, in this battle against Henna he managed to totally obliterate her blade, of course that was before she got her Bit beast," Dizzi said as the video played.
"No way!" they cried as Windeleion appeared.
"Great, another spoilt brat like Kai," Chin caro muttered looking away from the screen. Kai glared at her.
'What's she know anyway?'
"Is that all?" Kai asked coldly, shutting his eyes again.
"No! You're forgetting the big man kids!" Gramps exclaimed.
"Oh yes, Mishima," Chin caro said with distaste and venom. "All you need to know is that at least one person defeats him every year, but that's probably because he only ever fights one person in the tournament."
"You can't tell me that they are the only people competing in this lame tournament," Kai asked from his wall.
"No, but in my opinion they are the only ones that you should worry about, of course there's King, Jack, Lei and several others that are always looking to defeat Mishima for world domination, but they generally don't offer a threat because they fight out of greed and not heart," Chin caro replied typing into Dizzi. "Here are the other entries, read them if you like, but I can tell you myself who your first battles are against."
"Oh really, then why didn't you just show us those, no doubt we will be battling against unworthy opponents first up," Kai said getting up from his wall.
"No, the battle format is decided by random selection," Chin caro said retyping into the lap top. "For example Ray's first opponent is. oh dear."
"What is it?" Ray asked half dreading the answer.
"Um. your first opponent is King," she said looking at the screen. She turned it so they could all see; on the page were profile pages on both Ray and the competitor named King.
"What is he? Is he one of those Zoanthropes?" Ray asked looking at it in astonishment.
"No, it's a mask, he used to be a professional wrestler, don't get confused though when they talk about Armour King, that's another person completely. They're good friends though."
"Right," Ray said and then sat to focus on the battle.
"Who am I against?" Tyson asked excitedly.
"Lei Wulong, a police detective from China," Chin caro replied frowning. "I've never heard of him."
"Oh goody, a policeman," Tyson said in sarcasm.
"Hilary will be up against Henna," Chin caro said.
"Oh, cool," Hilary said, slightly nervous but excited.
"Kai, you will be versing Baek Doo San," her brow furrowed.
"Yeah? Who's he?" Kai asked in a bored tone.
"No idea, says here he's a Tae kwon do expert. Have fun and I expect you to win. Tae kwon do is one of the easiest arts to master," she said shutting Dizzi. "Night Dizzi."
"Right and what if I don't?"
"One, there is no chance that you'll get your friends back and two, you'll have to face me," she said coldly, narrowing her eyes.
"Good enough reason for me," he said with a sarcastic tone. She began to walk to the door.
"Hey, where are you going?" Ray asked. She suddenly seemed to remember something and hit herself in the head.
"Good point," she said walking back to the window.
"That's not my point, who are you battling?" Ray asked.
"I dunno, some girl named Christie Monteiro, night," Chin caro replied before jumping out the window.
"Man, that girl is weird," Tyson said rubbing his head.
"Watch it, remember she'll probably hear you," Hilary said. Suddenly a rock flew through the window and hit Tyson in the head. There was a piece of paper wrapped around it.
"Ouch, what's it say?" Ray asked as Kai opened it. Tyson got up rubbing his head.
"I heard that," Kai said with a smirk. They all laughed.
Oh yeah, one more sleep and then the Competition begins!! Who will win? Who will lose, please come back to find out on DEVIL GENE! (I luv doing that, heh heh)
Luv all my reviewers! Krayon
