Kai: --;; I can't believe I fell for that! ;;

Pain tore at Kai's senses, a sharp, burning pain. It were almost as if his body were being pulled apart at the seams. Each new flash of pain was accompanied by adrenaline, suddenly appearing inside his veins and then disappearing just as quickly, leaving him with less energy than before. No sooner did he have the chance to gasp for breath when another jolt would course through his body. His blood was boiling in its veins, heated by the energy that was rising from somewhere deep inside his body.
He wasn't sure if his friends were still there, his eyes were closed and he could focus on opening them. He could feel nothing but hurt as it wrecked through his body, the only thing he could here was the sound of blood, desperately pumping in his ears.
Tiny rivets of blood managed to escape from their boiling captivity at his neck, snaking their way down under his scarf.
Finally, Kai managed to find the strength to scream.

"Kai? Kai!" Tyson shook his friend in desperation, but found no response.
After the third or fourth time the energy had rippled through him, Kai hadn't had the strength to hold himself up, now being fully supported by Tyson and Ray. His whole body was tense, and he was still clutching his head, trying to relieve himself of the pain. His eyes were squeezed closed, and Tyson was sure he could see a small tear gathering in the corner of one of them. Kai's veins had taken to rising to the surface, pulsing in a strange rhythm.

Above them, Dranzer and Black Dranzer continued to fight, oblivious to Kai's torment.

"His body can't take this! If it doesn't stop soon, the energy is going to tear his body apart!"
"We know, Kenny. But what can we do?" And further comment was drowned out as energy once more crackled along the surface of Kai's body, blood bursting from their veins by the force.
And then, Kai screamed. It was loud and clear, torn from a hoarse throat. A thunderous, animalistic scream that pierced through everything else. Even the bitbeasts paused in their fight, heads turning towards their fallen wielder.
"Kai? Kai! Please, come on- snap out of it!" Ray was almost in tears from desperation for his friend. The others weren't doing much better, both Max and Kenny had tears forming in the corners of their eyes, and Tyson was struggling not to.
"He can't take it, guys! Dizzi was right, the pressure is too much. We've got to do something!"

There was a pause, broken only by Kai's harsh breathing, before Tyson got up, collecting Dragoon from where it lay and putting it in its launcher. "I guess we have to take out Black Dranzer."
"But if we attack, Black Dranzer might try to draw more strength from Kai!" Kenny protested, even as the others reached for their beyblades.
"I know, Chief. But if we don't, Kai's toast. We've got to try!"
"Tyson's right! It's the only chance we've got."
"But-"
"We've got to try, Kenny. If it doesn't work, the end result will be the same. We can't just give up."
The Chief sighed, relenting, as the three BladeBreakers released their beyblades into the dish below, next to the fourth beyblade... When, exactly, had it turned black?

Calling out their bitbeast's names, Black Dranzer suddenly found himself fending off four powerful bitbeast. The Dark phoenix shrieked in anger, finding itself almost unable to keep up with all of them at once. In desperation, it began to drain more energy from Kai. The human couldn't take much more of the dormant power inside him, the bitbeast was aware of that. But it had stopped caring about the well being of its host, instead focusing on winning.
After all, all Black Dranzer had to do was ignore the screaming.

"-old on Kai, just hold on...." Every now and then, Kai would manage to catch a phrase from one of his respective teammates. Desperately, Kai tried to cling to the voices, to stop himself from being taken away in the current of hurt, but didn't even has the energy to try to struggle anymore.
"Black Dranzer's loosing, Kai. We'll win...."
The voices themselves got fainter, until Kai couldn't hear them anymore. Instead, he could only hear his own heartbeat at the back of his head, and the sound of the energy as it rose up inside him, tearing him apart. This wasn't the power he'd been taught to seek all this time, was it?
For some reason, Kai couldn't make himself believe that.

Kai had gone limp as Ray and Tyson held him up, head hung, on the edge between awareness and unconsciousness. Desperately, they tried to talk to him, to tell him to hold on, for just a little while longer. But Kai didn't seem to hear them anymore.
Above them, the bitbeast continued to spar, four to one. Underneath, which, three beyblades fought against one other. The area was alight and shimmering with their glowing energies, blue, red, green, purple... and black. It was a miracle that no other people had noticed and gone to see what was going on, it would have been very difficult to think up an excuse for the scene in front of them.
Kai moaned, head lowering once again. All human eyes turned to him and he slumped back into his teammates arms, his eyelids twitching slightly. It took them only a moment to work out what was wrong- the slight trickles of blood had burst into larger cuts, blood spurting from them in large floods.
Kenny went a shade paler. "He hold on, guys! This is killing him!"
"Hang in there, Kai. Please, we'll win- just please don't give out on us."

For the faintest of moments, the black beyblade wobbled.
