Sorry for the long wait guys! I know... I hate cliffhangers too! Please
review, and follow up! I promise you the plot will get interesting!
Chapter 3: The Tension Commences...
The next day, the whole Granger house was a nervous wreck. On the bus,
Max was twiddling his thumbs. Tyson was jumping up and down in his seat.
Ray had his fists curled in his lap. And Kai, even though he didn't show
it, you could see tension in his gray eyes. Hilary, of course, rode with
them. She looked around at the Bladebreakers, but sat normally.
They finally reached the tournament area. Mr. Dickenson greeted them
warmly. "I'm happy to say that we have a winner! And I think she'll
measure up to you quite well. Ray looked surprised. "Already?" "Well,
yes. To tell you the truth, she beat everyone else before they had a
chance to attack. You can meet her upstairs. She's on the roof.
The Bladebreakers looked up, and indeed saw a lone figure overlooking the
roof. But the sunlight was too blinding to see much. All they could
really say at this point is that she wore a skirt, and her long hair
rippled in the sun. "Nice place to hang out..." Max commented jokingly.
"Her name's Jayde. She isn't on to talk much. She's basically the reason
the whole tournament for the new Bladebreaker finished so quickly." Said
Mr. Dickenson. The team looked at him with a quizzical look. "Her blade
was built for maximum speed as well as offense. She beat her opponents so
quickly that they had no time to react. She's not the friendliest type,
and she's quite ruthless in battle from what I've seen. But outside the
ring, she's quite shy and has nothing to say." Kai smirked just a little
when Mr. Dickenson called her 'ruthless'. To him, personality didn't
rally affect him that much. It was if her skill level is up to par.
Meanwhile, the girl looked at the view overlooking the city... it was a
nice clear day. She would be able to meet the Bladebreakers in a short
while, Mr. Dickenson told her. She waited patiently. She climbed onto the
railing- the only protection from her and the thirty-nine story fall- and
sat on it, her feet dangling in the air. She wasn't worried about
falling. Neko-jin usually had great balancing abilities, as well as other
gifts...
The Bladebreakers opened the door, and saw their to-be team member.
Ray, however, looked quizzically at her. There's something familiar about
her... but I can't lay my finger on it... He shook the thought off. It was
probably nothing to worry about...
"That's her?" Tyson whispered. They didn't even know why they were being
so quiet. "Yes Tyson. That's her." Mr. Dickenson answered. "I think you
boys should say hello. But be careful..." Mr. Dickenson never had a chance
to finish, for Tyson was bounding up to her.
"Hi!" He said. Jayde sensed him behind her, and automatically leapt into
battle position: legs spread apart, and hands ready to attack. Tyson
leapt back. "Whoa!" He ran back to Mr. Dickenson. "What's up with her?"
Jayde finally realized who they were. She got up and regained normal
composure. "Oh... I'm sorry. I didn't realize who you were... a-are you the
Bladebreakers by any chance?" Tyson seemed to breath a sigh of relief
that she wasn't a savage animal. Max went up to her first.
"Yup! Hi! I'm Max!"
he stuck out his hand. Jayde slowly took it. She looked at the other Bladebreakers, who slowly came to and greeted her. She spoke few words and kept to herself.
Kai, however, kept his distance.
When the meeting was ovr, and everyone was to depart, Kai could be heard calling over to hr: "We're training at the beach tomorrow! Be there!"
Lol…nice Kai! Tune in for the next Chapter! I hope it won't be long now
