Chapter 19

The day they had been waiting for had finally arrived.

The Biovolt Headquarters were no longer still. There was a buzz as members worked to prepare for the coming match. Everyone here was eager to see the downfall of the Bladebreakers and the BBA.

Voltaire was having his final meeting with his team, the Chamber was crowded. Boris stood next to his master, briefing the team how the game plan was to go. Tala and Brian were listening intently. Both eager to please, and confidant that they would each win their game.

And then there was the hooded figure. Silent, but deadly. His eyes gleamed from under his hood, but no one could see his face.

"Once they have been defeated by you, we will not only control their bit beasts, but the world!!!" Boris declared proudly.

Voltaire grinned at the speech, impressed. "And nothing can go wrong this time?"

Boris nodded his head viciously "Nothing Master Hiwariti. With our best bladders here, and our new addition." Waving his hand in the direction of the dark figure, "We are un-stoppable!"

Tala and Brian both agreed. The hooded figure remained still and silent.

Voltaire seemed to be satisfied, "I am looking forward to this battle, my grandson will regret the day he defied me and became the traitor his is".

"This meeting is over. The car has been sent to pick-up the Bladebreakers. Go and prepare yourselves." Voltaire ordered standing, they all nodded as he turned his back on them to look out his window. "Oh, and Tala, our captive is finding life rather difficult, being restrained so. Soon it will be time to set him free. He had better be ready."

Tala frowned at the comment "Of course Master. He is completely under your command. He is ready."

Voltaire`s grin deepened, "Good, I will be looking with interest at his match, to see how well your `enhancement` has progressed."

They left the room, apart from Boris and the hooded figure. "It is time to give him the Blade."

"Yes master." Boris answered; he went to a secret compartment, pulled out a black blade and approached the black, cloaked figure. Holding out his hand he dropped the dark blade on to the gloved hand of the mysterious male.

"Here you go. Look after it, make sure it is put to good use"

The hooded figure gave one slow nod and turned, leaving the room. Heading silently to the cell where Tyson was being held.

@@@@@@@@

Tyson wanted to talk to Kai again. Knew he should, but all he could concentrate on was Brian. That bastard had hurt his friends. No one had the right to cheat. No one could hurt another person. It wasn`t right.

Seeing Rei injured time after time, without being able to help, or stop the match was driving the already impulsive Tyson to distraction. His anger was turning into hate. It grew inside him over the days. It was all he thought about. He was no longer sure if Rei was even alive. Then to `see` Brian attack his other friends, and knock them down one by one, made him really mad.

He was going to avenge them. Friends stand by each other. He was going to get Brian, teach him a lesson. No one messed with his friends.

The already blind Tyson grew blind to the other reasons he bladed. He forgot that he bladed for fun, honour, and the challenge of gaining new skills.

He now wanted to use it to destroy.

Blackness was overtaking his heart.

As the madness took over, he lost contact with his Dragoon. The bit beast would only respond to the pure of heart, and Tyson's was slipping away, and now that he didn`t have his blade, the drift was even wider. Dragoon could not get through to his master, and it was not because he hadn`t tried.

The void was too wide.

So he stayed with Kai, and Dranzer. They were his only hope. Even Saska was unable to boost his powers enough to reach Tyson.

They could only wait in the hope that when they won him back, he would still be the same Tyson they knew before he had been stolen away.

The door opened to Tyson`s cell.

The shadow moved inside and went over to Tyson. He knew the boy could not see him, but he looked deeply into his eyes anyway. He could see the determination held there. The boy was more than ready, he would be magnificent.

"Who`s there?" Tyson asked, not really caring anymore. His mind was elsewhere.

The man just put a launcher into Tyson`s hand and the blade into the other, then moved back to watch.

Tyson squeezed the blade into his palm, recognizing the shape. It cut into his palm, drawing blood to seep out. He gripped the launcher in his other hand, putting his fingers on the releaser; he set the blade in its place.

Standing up, he felt emotions stir, as he got ready to launch the blade. "Let it Rip!" he shouted.

The blade flew out of the launcher and spun around the room on the walls before settling on the floor, as Tyson`s feeling surfaced, his hatred for Brian, the blade started to spin faster and faster, the power it was radiating was staggering.

The blade flashed darkly, it was pure evil and it lived off the hate coming from Tyson and rebounded it straight back at him, filling him with even more darkness than before. Tyson`s eyes turned black, gleaming in the darkness. The blade gave Tyson back his sight, partially; all he was able to see was shadows. Or Brian whenever he was with a competitor.

Instinctive hate was overwhelming.

Tyson could not control it. Did not want to control it. He let the dark power overtake him.

He was ready.

"Recall your blade boy" a raspy voice ordered. "It is time."

Tyson held out his hand and caught the blade as it returned to him. The man opened the cell door and lead Tyson to the new Biovolt stadium.

@@@@@@@

The adults were determined to get the problem resolved by letting the police take over and find Tyson, but they had overlooked one small problem.

Teenagers.

When teenagers are forbade to do something...for example..not to walk into a trap to fight in a battle to save a friend. That is exactly what they will do.

This was the adult's mistake.

The boys sneaked out of the room when Mr Dickenson was on the phone to the Hospital, explaining that Rei would not be returning to them. Mr Granger was taking Saska around in the limo to see if she could `sense` Tyson`s aura again.

The boys waited outside impatiently for the car to arrive. Kenny worried that they shouldn`t be doing it, that they alt to wait for the police, like Mr Dickenson had told them too.

A black Limo pulled up outside the Hotel. A dark window smoothly slid down, "Ride for the Bladebreakers" A mans voice called.

Kai gripped Dranzer and Dragoon in his hands as he looked at his team, "Ok. This is it. Lets do it"

Rei nodded "Yeah, I`ve had just about as much as I can take from these guys. But keep your eyes open guys" He walked stiffly down the steps after Kai.

Max jumped down the steps towards the waiting car "Sure, we are going to win this match and save Tyson. Lets show these creeps that we mean business!"

Kenny just sweated nervously, following the others and clinging onto Dizzy as they climbed into the car.

@@@@@@

The two teams stared at each other from across the battle dish. Kai tall, with his blue triangles painted perfectly on his cheeks liked war paint. His expression was one of a warrior going into battle.

Rei, standing next to Kai. His long black hair rolled up in white cloth and hanging down his back. His face judging those he now saw as enemies, wondering who it was underneath the black hooded cloak, the mysterious blader that he was going to battle.

Max held his head high, a wisp of blond hair falling over one eye, as he glared at Brian, for hurting Rei, and causing all this trouble. He would beat him. For Rei, for his team.

Kenny sat behind the team, out of sight from the glares being thrown around, Dizzy on his lap. He spoke to her quietly, but she said that her sensors still weren`t working properly.

The Demolition Boys faced their most hated rivals. Tala, a head above everyone else, scowled at Kai. He was enjoying the torment this was having on his former team leader.

Brian was actually smirking at them, knowing they didn`t have a clue. Rei looked so proud, standing between Kai and Max. Brian felt he had waited a long time for this day. Now his revenge would be complete.

The hooded person stood between his teammates. Still, he did not move a muscle, but two dark lights gleamed from within the folds of his cloak.

Boris`s voice boomed out suddenly, over the microphone "Welcome, teams. Today is the rematch of the Russian Finals. First up is Rei from the Bladebreakers and..The `Black Blader` from the Demolition Boys.

The crowds of Biovolt employee`s cheered excitedly, the sound ricocheting off the walls. Rei glanced at Kai, their eyes met, briefly. Kai nodded. Rei turned to Max, who held his hand up. "Put it there bud! Go get `em Rei!"

Rei slapped hands with Max and silently walked up to the blading dish. His competitor was waiting for him. Still fully covered.

"Bladers, are you ready?" Boris shouted over the noise.

They both took aim.

Launchers ready, blades waiting to be released.

"Let it RIIIPPPP!!" He bellowed.

Both blades tore away from their masters, Rei`s found the dish first, spinning towards the Black Bladers feet. His blade was knocked off course as the Black Bladers dark blade whipped in front of Rei`s and crashed into it.

Sparks flew in all directions.

The blades rolled around the dish, pushing each other and then twisting and dodging, neither gaining the upper hand.

Kenny worked tirelessly on Dizzy to fix the sensor problem. They needed to know who this blader was. Kai`s eyes narrowed as Rei`s blade was forced to the edge of the dish, nearly being pushed out.

The crowd went wild.

Kai`s eyes scanned the stadium for any sign of Tyson. He could feel his presence, knew he was close by. His grandfather had refused them seeing Tyson before the match, but had said that he would be there. Watching.

Rei had had enough of this `cat` and `mouse` game and decided to end it by calling up Drigger.

The bit beast rose into the air, filling the room with white light, and growling fiercely at the dark blader, bringing with him a tornado, which swept around the stadium, reviling the Black Bladers identity.

Kai stared hard at the blader...

Tyson ? ......

He looked different; he had a frenzied look upon his face, ruining his baby face features that Kai fell for.

The others just as shocked could only gape at him.

*Dranzer!* Kai spoke to his bit beast.

Both Dranzer and Dragoon responded. **Kai, that is not Tyson. Not the one you know. He can`t see remember. Only what appears in his mind** Dranzer told him.

Dragoon continued ***Hate is consuming him. I cannot get through to him, only you will be able to do that***

Suddenly Kai understood......Tala.....

Calling out to Rei, before it was too late.

"Rei, look at his eyes. He can`t see!" Rei turned to face Kai, his shoulders heaving with each breath. "Ask him who you are!"

Rei frowned "Huh?"

Kai shouted louder "Ask him!"

With Rei not concentrating on the battle, Tyson took advantage and his blade gain speed and crashed into Rei`s, making Rei fall back slightly as his Drigger was pushed back towards the edge of the dish.

Rei gasped and retaliated instinctively, his neko-jin taking over. "Drigger, Tiger claw attack" he shouted.

"NOOOO..." Screamed Kai, Max and Kenny together.

Too late, Drigger swung his claws towards Tyson`s Blade which was viciously attacking Rei`s. As they hit, Tyson screamed out in pain, claw marks appearing across his chest. Blood began weeping out the wounds.

"YOU WILL NOT WIN!" Tyson`s voice was as frenzied as his face. He held an arm over his new wound. Sagging, he called forth his new bitbeast, as he unleashed his hate, Black Dranzer burst out of his blade.

@@@@@@@

Voltaire, Boris and Brian were grinning evilly.

Tala stood and watched, his eyes constantly on Tyson`s sweaty face. He had done his job well. Voltaire had no need to worry that Tala was unworthy.

Tyson had no idea that he was fighting Rei. He thought it was Brian he was fighting, and that he had stolen Drigger from Rei.
