Chapter II
Slowly pale eyelids fluttered upon to reveal blood red eyes, blinking a few times to get use to the bright light the figure sat up, glancing around the large room she spotted a male figure lying next to her, he was on the edge of the bed with his pale back facing her, Black Dranzer smirked at him, leaning over she brushed back his blue gray bangs and whispered soft words in his ear,
"Wakey wakey Kai" as a response the male teen groaned before opening his crimson orbs, Looking up Kai was faced with a beautiful young face, her pale skin looked smooth and sleek and a pair of piecing red eyes stared down at him. Growling deep in his throat Kai pushed the girl back and got out of bed, looking down at the clock beside the bed he read it as 4:45am. Glaring at the clock he then strode into the bathroom to take a shower.
"Good morning" came the cheerful sound of Max as he stepped into the kitchen,
"Morning Max" replied Kenny. It was now about 7:30am, Kenny and Ray had recently gotten up, and were now making breakfast, well Ray was. Kai and Rain were just sitting silently at the kitchen table, both had their arms crossed over their chest and eyes closed, lost in thought. Max joined them at the table patiently awaiting breakfast,
"Tyson still asleep?" asked Ray as he placed a plate of pancakes in front of the blond,
"Yep" replied the blue eyed teen with a sigh,
"Well he better get up soon" a cold icy voice bit through the air,
"Kai, you know Tyson, he wont be up for hours" responded Kenny, Kai's only reply was to growl deep in his throat.
"It's still early, how can you make me get up, put a hold on training for a few more hours so I can go back to sleep" moaned Tyson as Ray dragged him to a nearby park where they where planning on training for the day,
"Would you quite your whining" shot Ray getting annoyed with Tyson's attitude over training, setting up near a beyblade dish they began their training for the day, Max and Ray where first up for battle,
"Ok you two ready?" asked Kenny his laptop open,
"You bet," grinned Max,
"Alright 3...2...1...Let It Rip!"
"Go Driger!"
"Go Draciel!"
Both blades shot into the dish before they began to spin wildly around each other,
"Driger attack!" yelled Ray his gray blade going in for the kill,
"Draciel defense!" Max counter his attack with great skill that sent Ray's beyblade flying back but luckily it never fell from the dish,
"Draciel attack again!" shot Max his bright green blade quickly closed the gap between itself and Ray's gray blade before delivering the final blow, which then sent the gray blade from the bowl where it then slowed to a stopped,
"Hey great battle Max" cheered Tyson jumping up and down,
"Good job" smiled Ray
"Hey you too Ray" grinned the blond,
"So who's going to battle next?" asked Tyson
"You and Rain" spoke a cold voice
"Huh" looking up to find the source of the voice the navy haired teen saw Kai sitting in the tree above him,
"Well ok" answered Tyson as he pulled out his blade and stepped up to the dish, Rain following soon after, she had been leaning against the same tree Kai was sitting in,
"Now's my chance to gather some data on Rain" mumbled Kenny
"3...2...1...Let It Rip" both blades where launched into the dish, Tyson's Dragoon blade went straight to the center of the dish while Black Dranzer's ebony blade spun laps around the edge of the dish, a sly smirk spread across her beautiful face,
"Now attack!" snapped Black Dranzer, her black and red blade glowed an eerie raven colour as it shot towards Tyson's,
"What the?" gasped Tyson as his beyblade was knocked straight from the dish where it hit a nearby tree leaving a rather large dent in the rough bark,
"Wow" gasped Kenny as he rapidly typed away on his laptop,
"What amazing power, and without a bit beast" Kenny was shocked, even Kai was somewhat impressed with the power Rain's blade held
"How in the world do you get your beyblade so powerful when you haven't got a bit beast?" asked Tyson as he went to retrieve his own blade
"Skill I guess" replied Rain with a shrug pretending not to know when the real answer was that she was the bit beast powering the beyblade.
"So Kenny when do we leave for the Australian tournament?" asked Max looking over at the brunette,
"Um well the tournament starts on Thursday but Mr. Dickinson has booked our flight for Wednesday so we'll arrive the day before the tournament starts" explained Kenny
"Cool so we leave in two days," grinned Max
'Excellent the sooner we get to Australia the quicker I can start my search for the first legendary bit beast' thought Rain smirking to herself,
"Oh well lets get back we've been out here training for about four hours" spoke Ray getting up off the ground where he had been resting,
"Yeah, well if that's ok with you Kai" said Max looking over at the silent captain,
"Whatever" was the response the blond teen received,
"That's good enough for me" grinned Tyson who also stood, the Bladebreakers then made their way back to the hotel they where staying at.
"Oh yeah Australia here we come!" cheered Tyson as he ran about the airport,
"Tyson would you calm down!" shot Ray glaring at the navy haired teen,
"Sorry I'm just totally excited"
"We know," sighed Kenny
"Last call for Japan to Australia!" called a female voice over the PA system,
"Well that's our flight" spoke Mr. D as he and the Bladebreakers made their way over to the flight gate,
"We hope you enjoy your flight" spoke a young woman as she took the tickets from Mr. D before leading the Bladebreakers to their seats. In the plane they sat in pairs along the window aisle, at the front sat Ray and Kenny behind them sat Max and Rain and then much to his dislike Kai was stuck next to Tyson, who then had Mr. Dickinson behind him.
"This is going to be wicked, another tournament and in Australia it'll be like old times again" grinned Tyson almost jumping out of his seat with excitement which greatly annoyed Kai who lent his left elbow against the thin window sill, 'This is going to be a long flight' the slate haired teen thought to himself with a sigh glancing across at Tyson before setting his sight out the plane window.
"Tyson would you just shut up already!" snapped Kai glaring at the navy haired teen, his sudden outburst caught the attention of almost everyone in the plane,
"No" came the quick response, Kai growled deep in his throat while Tyson stuck his tongue out at him before turning away. Near the front of the plane laugher could be heard, like always it was Max, bursting full of energy, for almost the entire trip he had been telling Rain jokes only she never even smirked at them while each time Max burst out laughing thinking them to be the most hilarious in the world,
"Would you stop telling jokes already" snapped Rain glaring at Max, her blood red eyes flashing with hatred,
"What? Well no, I've still got tones left to tell," giggled Max before he went on to tell another joke, sighing in frustration Rain rose from her seat and walked to where Kai and Tyson were sitting just two rows back, grabbing Tyson by the collar of his red jacket she pushed him to the floor and then took his seat next to Kai,
"Hey what was that for?" Tyson shot as the stood up
"Go sit next to your friend, he's driving me crazy" replied Rain as she relaxed back in her seat
"Well ok" smiled Tyson who seemed quite happy with the idea, sitting by Max the two teens began to laugh at something Max had just said, most probably another lame joke.
"Thanks, I wasn't sure how much longer I could last before I killed him" spoke Kai as he lent over to speak softly to Rain, as a response she winked back before closing her blood red orbs.
"Alright Australia!" cheered Tyson and Max as they jumped around in excitement,
"Don't they ever shut up" Rain whispered to Kai, who in response shook his head. The Bladebreakers and Mr. D had recently landed in Sydney Australia, and where now on a BBA bus headed for the hotel they were going to stay in. Tyson and Max both sat at the front of the bus while Ray sat a few seats behind, Kenny sat on the opposite side to Tyson and Max, then Kai was sitting on the back seat by the window while Rain sat in front of him. Quite a large number of seats between them and the other four Bladebreakers. Finally pulling up by the hotel the teens along with Mr. D got off the bus and headed into the hotel where they then were given a hotel room to stay in while the tournament was up and running.
"There you go boys, and girl, there are six rooms each with a single bed, which room you take is up to you, I must get going for now, but I will be back within a few hours, so feel free to do what you wish in the meantime" explained Mr. D before he left. Silently Kai walked off towards one of the rooms choosing that as his, following suit Rain did the same picking out her room. Quickly dumping their stuff in a room Max and Tyson sat down to watch T.V while Kenny began typing away on Dizzi and Ray went off for a walk.
Black Dranzer sat on her bed, glancing around the room she found it to be simple but luxurious, with soft carpet and silk sheets on the bed, coloured curtains draped across the window and simple pieces of furniture in the corner. Sighing she lay back, dark red orbs staring at the pearly white ceiling, till a vibration in her skirt pocket caught her attention, pulling out her phone she answered with a grunt,
"Hello Black Dranzer" came the voice on the other line
"What do you want," she snapped not wanting to hear his voice and hoping to be able to hang up soon,
"No need to get angry" Boris replied
"Say what needs to be said then go," Rain hissed
"Fine, are you in Australia yet?" he asked
"Of course I am" snarled Rain
"The tournament should be starting within a few days, make sure you get the first bit beast" hissed Boris
"Do you really think that I wont" shot the black haired girl
"Just making sure you remembered your role, I can't have you getting sidetracked"
"What's that supposed to mean?" she snarled
"Never mind, just don't screw this up" snapped Boris before the line went dead, Rain growled to herself as she threw her phone across the room in anger,
"If that's how you treat your own things I'd hate to see how you handle other peoples stuff" came a cool voice from the door. Looking over Rain saw Kai standing in her doorway, as a response she only glared at him
"Who was it that got you so pissed off?" the Russian teen asked
"You heard?" Rain asked looking somewhat shocked
"Ah yeah, I could hear you down the hall so I came for a closer look" replied Kai
"You know it's rude to listen in on some ones conversation," snapped Rain looking the least bit happy,
"Well you should keep your voice down in future" spoke Kai before turning to leave.
'Boris better not call me again anytime soon, I can't have Kai becoming suspicious of me' thought Rain before going to pick up her phone and placing it back in her pocket.
"Come on we have to start training" shot Kai
"Oh man, do we have to" wined Tyson
"Yes" hissed Kai the least bit happy with the younger teen
"Tyson, if we want to win this tournament we have to train" spoke Ray
"We'll win, we're the world champs" replied Tyson with a grin
"Tyson grow up, we're here to defend our title, but if we don't train we aren't going to win, that I can ashore you of, how do you think we became world champions in the first place" snapped Kai glaring at Tyson, after some silence Kai answered
"By training! Now get out there!"
"Alright, alright, gee no need to get angry about it" spoke Tyson as he left their hotel room Max, Ray, and Kenny close behind,
"When I schedule a training session that means everyone has to train, I don't care if you go off on your own but make sure you get some training done," said Kai looking down at Black Dranzer, who sat on the couch,
"Yeah fine" she replied standing up and leaving as well, Kai closing the door behind her. Together the Bladebreakers headed down towards a nearby park for some training.
