Okay, I hope you all had as much fun reading the last chapter as I had
writing it! As you should know by know, I own nothing except the story
line, Kit, and the new beyblades. Continue reading and ponder!!!
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
As they all slept, an unknown person was watching Kit and Sakura. "Those two," The person whispered. "Those two have the secret power. Master will be pleased that I have found them at last." The person disappeared.
The next morning, when Kit and Sakura woke up, they felt rather weird. They both had dead-aches, and the last things that happened before they went to bed were foggy, almost as if they were dreams.
Rei and Kai went to wake up the rest of their team when they saw Max and Tyson already up and going to pour some water on Kenny. So, they decided to wait and see.
Tyson and Max poured the water and dashed off, hiding behind the door. Kenny woke up, spluttering and cursing under his breath slightly.
At that moment, Yoko sped into the room, jumped on Rei's shoulder, and started whining. Rei looked at him oddly. "What? Do you want food or something?"
In reply, Yoko jumped off his shoulder, walked a few paces away, then looked back at Rei as if to say, "Why aren't you following me??"
Rei and Kai followed Yoko to Kit's room. When they pushed open the already ajar door, they found Kit and Sakura laying on their backs, looking at the ceiling.
"Kit? Hey, kit, what's up?" Rei asked, going over to Kit's side. Yoko jumped on top of her and licked her face. No response to either. Kai tried the same thing with Sakura.
"It's no use. They're not listening. It's almost as if..." Kai said, looking around the room.
"It's almost as if what, Kai?" Rei asked.
"It's almost as if they're being controlled. Mentally. No expression, not responding to anything, and they don't have pupils, if you noticed," Kai said, looking rather angry and annoyed.
"So, all we have to do is find the person that did this and tell them to take off their control, right Kai?" Rei asked, his hands balling into fists.
"It's not tat simple, Rei. We also have to get them back to normal after that. They may be rather disoriented, so we have to help them with that," Kai said, looking out the window and seeing a note in it. He grabbed the note and read it aloud. "BladeBreakers, if you ever want to see these girls the way they were again, come to the abandoned apartment today at noon. Raizen."
"He. Is. So dead," Rei said, his fists trembling with anger. "Are you coming, Kai?"
"Naturally," Kai said. "And we should bring their teammates. They might want to help us get the bastards that did this."
Rei and Kai went and told the remaining 5 people who didn't know about this. In their absence, Kit and Sakura got up and went out the window silently. They walked over to the abandoned apartment silently and stopped at the entrance for a few moments, then walked inside.
When Rei went to check on the two, he found them gone. "Kai! Get over here!" He yelled, angry and frustrated.
Kai walked in, saw that the girls were gone, and swore violently. He walked back outside and told the others the bad news. No-one had any idea of what they were going to have to do or how to get the girls back unless they went to the apartment and did whatever it was that this Raizen guy wanted them to do.
So, at 11:30, they grabbed their blades and walked to the place. Rei and Kai entered first, Kenny, Max, and Tyson second, and Sora and Kelly last.
"I see you did come, BladeBreakers. I am pleased," a voice said. The person before (Th beginning of the chapter) walked forward. He had black pants, a gray shirt, and a white cloak that billowed out behind him. He also had white hair that came to his shoulders. "You will have to pass a series of tests to get to the girls back. Then, if or when you defeat all the tests, I will give you further instructions. But I doubt you will get that far. By the way, my name is Beshimi," the man said as he walked back into the shadows.
A hole opened and the BladeBreakers approached it cautiously. A beyblade shot put at them, and they dodged. Several more came out as well and everyone launched their blades. Kai and Rei were the first to get to the hole and their blades went in there. They followed and saw a machine that spat beyblades out at intervals. They destroyed the machine and went back out to help the others.
"It seems," Kai said as they all got together again, "that we have passed the first test. Now, for the second one."
Everyone climbed up a set of staircases and saw what the next task was. They had to climb a rock wall at one end of the room while dodging swords and other weapons swinging from the ceiling.
"Let's go!" Rei yelled. As soon as he stepped on the floor that was rock, the swords started swinging and moving down, making small gashed in the floor. Rei sprinted across, dodging swords and, once, something that looked like a chandelier. Kai followed, then everyone else.
Kelly was hit across the face with one of the swords and nearly passed out. Tyson grabbed her hand and started pulling her across. Rei got a cut on his arm and Kai got on his leg, but other than that, they all came out unscathed.
"Come on, Kelly. Get up. You just have to climb this wall. Then we can rest for a bit," Sora said, worried about her friends health.
Kelly nodded and they started climbing after the others. Max and Tyson had to help Kelly over the top, but then they stopped for a rest. Bad mistake.
A zanbatou swung out of nowhere, making a huge gash right where Rei had been moments before.
"They never give us a rest, do they, Kai?" Rei asked as they all dodged another swing from the giant sword.
"Why would they?" Kai asked right back.
"Good question. I'll have to remember to ask after we get there," Rei said. "You know, there's a pattern in this."
"Huh?" Tyson and Max said as they dodged another blow.
"There are only so many ways that you can swing this thing. They aim for Kai and I first, then go for the rest of the team second. I we can use that to our advantage, then we can get through here faster.
"Let's try it!" Sora yelled from across the room.
They did, and it worked perfectly. As soon as they got to the stairs, they all sat down, panting.
"Guys," Sora said worriedly. "I don't know how much longer Kelly can keep doing this. We'll stay here and you can go ahead. We both need the rest, anyway."
"But—"Max started, but was interrupted.
"GO!! Saving Sak and Fox is more important that leaving us behind for a little while. We'll catch up later!" Sora yelled, giving them a little push towards the top.
Kai and Rei nodded and went up. Tyson and Max followed, looking reluctant, and dragging Kenny along with them.
When they were all at the top, they saw that Beshimi was at the other end of the room, with Sakura and Kit suspended in mid-air over a big pot. It was bubbling and frothing slightly at the top, so there was a boiling liquid inside.
"I see you have made it past the tests. Mow is the finally. As you see, your girls are suspended over a pot of boiling water. When that timer goes off, they will be dropped, and will die slowly, and painfully. The final test is to beat me before the timer goes off. You may even have two beyblades against mine, if you wish. You have 30 seconds to decide.," Beshimi said.
"I'll go," Kai said.
"There's no way you can keep me from going, either," Rei said.
"Good luck, you guys," Max said as they walked over to stand opposite Beshimi.
"Ready? Then let's begin. 3...2...1 LET IT RIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIP!!" All three launched their beyblades and the timer started. It said that they had five minutes.
Drigger and Dranzer soon had a plan. They would circle around and one would go in and attack while the other came in from the side. It worked for a while then the other blade would dodge.
"Go, Han'nya! Destroy those beyblades!" Beshimi yelled. The bitbeast came out and attacked the two blades. Soon, Drigger and Dranzer were out as well. The battle lasted 4 minutes and 30 seconds. The timer stopped with 30 seconds to go and Rei and Kai called their blades back to them. Beshimi was unconscious. They ran over to go untie the girls when...
