Chapter Twenty-Three

Tala had let his Beyblade go and now he was locked in conflict with the dangerous bit beast he had seen not to long ago, however he knew his chances of really winning the battle was few and far in between but he never gave up. Just like he couldn't give up his freedom that he so earned from getting away from Boris it was the least of his worries now.

Winning this battle was everything to him now.

He dozed off in his thoughts a bit to much and missed a few attacks done by Takushiya as the Beyblade spun around several times doing more damage then his defense ring could withstand or was meant to rather. "Wolborg don't give in!" he shouted blowing his red bangs out of his eyes he couldn't lose the battle he just couldn't.

As time went by the tension increased between the two Beyblader's and now Tala wished that his could become physical too and crush the opponents Beyblade but he knew that wouldn't happen so soon and when Takushiya's blade started to glow he had a feeling he was in for a rough ride. ----------

Kai panted as he reached the abbey he knew he had to come here he knew for a fact it was the only place Tala would ever go and not get caught to easily since it was in enemy territory. Locking his cold gaze with the place he walked around the abbey several times before he could actually pick up where the battle was actually taking place and numbly he followed ending up on top of a piece of dirt.

He could hear the two Beyblade's crashing together but he didn't know why he could and searched for an opening some kind of secret door even. He felt the ground going on his hands and knees feeling something solid but before he could lift it in any way possible the ground beneath him started to crumble. Thinking quickly with a reaction as fast as a cat he jumped to the side rolling a bit far away to see the space he was at erupt and the same Bit Beast that attacked from before stood ready to attack. ----------

Oliver surveyed the kitchen with a look of disgust the pans and glasses, pottery and plastic everything was not cleaned to his satisfactory and he had to hunt down the one who didn't do their job. Grumbling to himself he tore off his chef hat and wandered throughout the mansion looking for Johnny and Cenotaph bumping into an equally surprised Zomb along the way.

"Aren't you supposed to be asleep?" Zomb asked looking down at the green haired teenager while the Majestic snorted and looked sideways "yes but how can one sleep with so many dishes like that I just got up for a glass of water why are you up?" he inquired while the Frankenstein gave a dull look.

"Cause you shifted out of the bed and made me get out but if you want to know the truth no one can sleep tonight everyone is awake"

Oliver blushed not knowing how light of a sleeper Zomb was and muttered something under his breath "well anything special you need to tell me?" the green haired member asked while Zomb scratched his head and took a seat by the stairs "no but I do have a interesting thing to tell you." The Majestic leaned against the wall and listened to what the Dark Blader said about how the whole ordeal started and how everyone always got one room and were forced to sleep together in it, before Oliver knew what came out of his mouth a loud "HE DID WHAT?" escaped him as the matchmaker idea came to his mind.

Before the Majestic could start to complain at how evil their two leaders were the sound of a phone rang loudly throughout the house, confused at the sudden noise he approached the phone and checked the time 'who would be phoning at 1 am?' picking it up he sighed.

"Hello?" he responded automatically while fingering the cord.

"Hey Oliver? It's Michael from the All Starz I need to talk to Robert please it's an emergency" raising nothing but an eyebrow Oliver cupped the phone and bellowed for Robert to come and get the phone. ----------

Robert moaned and shifted in his bed he couldn't quite get comfortable tonight the battle still had him wary and if they were fighting something like that what was the chance of another attack? They were putting their own lives in danger as well. Sanquinex watched Robert and put his arms around the younger teens waist brushing the side of his face "can't sleep?" a sigh was the only answer followed by a flat "no" causing the vampire to chuckle lightly.

"Well you should," he said kissing the neck of the human getting another heaved sigh their moment however was broken by an extremely loud bellowing from downstairs. "What now." Robert complained not even bothering to grab a shirt and headed out into the hallway in just his boxers 'this better be good' he thought to himself tripping down the stairs as he sleepily managed to get down to meet a rather red Oliver staring at him.

"What?" he asked grouchily rubbing his face while Oliver shyly handed the Majestic leader the phone silently before moving away. Zomb did nothing but stare widely and made himself turn the other way and march into one of the un occupied rooms.

"Hello? What do you want? Do you know what TIME it is? It's- What do you mean a Griffon was spotted.you said an eagle came out of you're Beyblade?" Robert now listened intently while scratching his shoulder the seriousness of the conversation peeking him out of sleep.

"Say what?" ----------

Before Tala knew what was happening the whole part of the underground part had completely dissolved by the energy used to make the Bit Beast physical form now facing what he knew he had no chance against he now doubted his efforts even more. But the rage contained from within him thought otherwise since it was an unfair fight to him.

"Hey!" Tala yelled at Takushiya not daring to get any closer than needed to "you cheated! You said you wouldn't summon you're Bit Beast!" if the bounty hunter cared now he didn't show it as he ordered another attack which the cyborg's Beyblade nimbly dodged out of pure luck and skill.

Adverting his attention he noticed Gasalu rear up it's head toward something else shifting his own confused gaze he looked behind to see none other than Kai standing bravely near the spirit before he knew what was happening the Bit Beast took a flying lunge at the BladeBreaker, not bearing to watch Tala let all his hope die away there was nothing that could help Kai nothing not even Dranzer or Wolborg.

The sound of two things clashing arouse Tala from where he had turned his head and looked at what had stopped the attack to find his own Bit Beast Wolborg in all his glory snarling at his opponent. With a bit of hope he raced over to where Kai was and shook him to make sure the other Blader hadn't gone into shock while keeping n eye on Gasalu.

It was now a whole new meaning to the word 'Battle'. ----------

Michael propped his elbows onto Trygle and watched the TV bore out of his mind the others had gone out for some kid of special thing and haven't returned so he had the whole place to himself and his Bit Beast. It wasn't to long until he became quite tired and flicked the channel clicker through the stations randomly until he paused on the news.

Now normally he hated the news but he didn't care about what they were saying because what he saw was a whole different matter. On the screen there was a giant purple Griffon the creature could not be mistaken for anything else and it looked quite familiar to him.

"That is the Griffon he is also in this world inside a Beyblade" Trygle exclaimed sipping some hot chocolate "but seems his owner has already been in danger we only appear if there lives are in danger or a loved one they hold dear" he said and continued to sip his drink while the baseball player did a quick calculation on who would own a Griffon.

It didn't last to long until he was searching the house for the phone (burning a few things in his rush) and dialed up the Majestic's "hi is Robert there I need to speak to him it's an emergency" crossing his fingers he hoped he was right.

A/N: I'm aware I have not updated but like I said blame the existence of some things like msn, neopets, the running away of muses, and my laziness although I have now decided this will be ending VERY soon but fear not I have a SEQUEL in mind and I'm going to STICK to it. So yeah sorry folks for the lack of updating arigatou though.
