UniGirl: Well I kinda feel abandoned I noticed people don't review on the weekends…very mysterious…Anyways here's the chapter tell me what you think and read this carefully it tells you a lot…more than it seems to.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Last time:

Britt wasted no time in summoning her bit beast. "DOGLEFOX!"

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

            Wing crossed her arms, not the least bit impressed. The world of Beyblading had changed since she last visited it as in tournament-wise. She hadn't been "officially" in a tournament for longer than one would have guessed. And things do change. Why hadn't Flame told her what to expect? He had been in for a while…well a few years to be exact. But nowadays Flame never told her anything. She thought he was holding a grudge against her. Wing smiled ever so slightly. She had almost cracked a joke. Sure she was always sarcastic, but she hadn't joked in the last century or so.

            /Yes Wingy I am holding a grudge against you./

            /I see. And may I ask why?/

            /Well you're rude to me, cold to me…/

            /I'm always like that. And you shouldn't be talking. You're not exactly warm and polite./

            /…Not to mention you saved my life once or twice in the last ten years…a record for you./

            /Oh I see. So you hate me because I saved your life./

            /DID YOU HEAR THAT WING JUST CRACKED A JOKE!/ cried Aqua on the top of her lungs.

            /DID YOU HEAR THAT AQUA CAN ACTUALLY TALK!/ screamed Wing back.

            Aqua blushed. One of the reasons she liked picking on Wing was that she never picked on her back.

            /Guys are you even paying attention to the beybattle?/

            /It's boring. Amateurs. I can't believe that junk of a team won world champs./

            /You can't Aqua? Then why didn't you try harder when you were in?/

            /I CANT USE YOU-KNOW-WHAT'S FULL POTENTIAL ANYWAY I HAD THAT GIT OF A BROTHER TO SLOW ME DOWN/

            /He's your brother? That means Black Dranzer's my father./

            /GOSH WING QUIT IT WITH THE SARCASM./

            /JUST SHUT UP YOU TWO!!/ screamed Storm.

            /You're actually watching the beybattle?/ asked Flame, mildly interested.

            /better than watching those two fight./

            /It's amusing./

            /you just like Aqua that's all. She is your cousin./

            /No you're the one with the crush on Aqua./

            /I…What????/

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

            "DOGLEFOX ATTACK!!!"

            Max watched as the blade came closer. "DRACIEL" he called to his bit beast and the purple turtle [A/N: Hey I just noticed that! Hint Hint Feya but then he looks ugly…] emerged from the bit chip. "FORTRESS DEFENCE"

            The fire fox beast collided with the earth tortoise. "DOGLEFOX GO!" screamed Britt.

            Max looked up. She seemed so…demonic. Her shoulder length hair was flying in all directions and her eyes had a wild look to them. She was no longer the timid cousin she knew…over the years she seemed to have turned into something else altogether. He had no memory of her in America when he visited two years ago. She had left somewhere.

            Britt saw the distant look in her cousin's eyes and her anger boiled again. Why is he thinking of something else when he is supposed to be focused on our battle? Her mind emphasized the word "Battle."

*******************

            Elsewhere, someone was more than satisfied. That girl is oh so gullible. He thought to himself.

*******************

            Doglefox looked into Draciel's eyes and then at a certain man in the crowd. She [Doglefox is female right?] knew it was time.

*****Flashback*****

[Okay I'm doing this in a bit beast's POV sort of but it's not first person. Am I weird or what?]

            Doglefox hovered over Britt's dead parents. The toddler was just crying and very confused. Doglefox braced herself and dove, but she was never able to slice through the child's heart because at that moment, an elderly woman came down the stairs. She was holding a green blade, spinning in her palm as the light coming from the bit solidified into a turtle beast. Draciel.

*****End Flashback*****

            Draciel knew exactly what was happening. Exactly. He looked at the girl and then at Max. If only there were a way to save them both. He thought silently. He would try, but Doglefox was much tougher than normal. Especially with technology backing her up. He had stalled long enough. It was time.

            Time to get my revenge. Doglefox's mouth curved upward just a bit.

            Max and Britt watched as the two bit beasts crashed into each other again and again, without any orders from their masters.

            They were holding a grudge against each other.

            Britt saw the attack and the end result before it came. "DOGLEFOX STOP!" she pleaded.

            Doglefox stopped-against her will-she was bound to Britt with the laws of being a bit beast.

            "Don't worry Doglefox, do whatever you like," said a voice from behind her. Britt turned around to see a hooded figure.

            "B-Boris?" she stammered.

            "Gullible fool." He smirked.

            "You-u you what?"

            "I was never on your side."

            "YOU WHAT???"

            Doglefox cried her war cry and she charged towards Draciel. Max closed his eyes. "DRACIEL!" he shouted.

            The two ancient enemies closed in on each other and light shone everywhere.

            Ray knew what was about to happen. "MAX" he called and, stepping up to the stadium, he pushed Max aside.

            That was all they knew before everything was covered in smoke.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

            Once the smoke cleared, both the bit beasts were gone, and Doglefox's blade was smashed into a million different pieces. Max slowly got up as the camera turned on. The crowd gasped. Draciel was still spinning, no matter how weakly.

            He looked at his friend on the ground. Ray was unconscious.

            Max was only dimly aware of what had happened when they announced him the winner of the round.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

            The world was spinning as Britt slowly opened her eyes. "Wh…where am I?"

            "You're okay."

            Britt waited for her vision to come into focus before she looked up. She couldn't believe it.

            Kane kneeled on the side of her bed. "I was worried about you."

            Britt rolled over so he couldn't see her blush.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

            Mr Dickenson walked into the room. "Hey you guys better get ready for your match against Kane, especially you, R…" he stopped abruptly as his gaze fell on the bed in the corner where Ray lay, unconscious.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

            YUP THAT'S A CHAPTER GO ME!!! POOR POOR RAY!!! *Puppy pout* So that's three pairings for certain in this fic so far. Aqua/Storm, the obvious Lin/Ray and Kane/Britt. Well, I'm not the type for mush and kissing so don't expect that I might hint at it…no promises. WHERE HAVE ALL MY REVIEWERS GONE????

Britt: I LOVE YOU SO MUCH *hugs really tightly* Anyway I hoped you've liked how I did her. I hope you see it the way I do and not…offending. I know it's you as a bb character and really I didn't want to kill you or else I wouldn't get reviews. About the other comment…well you haven't written anything yet so I don't know or maybe you have you could tell me the url…least I can do for what…twelve reviews? Maybe more.

Phoenix the 1st: sorry about cliffies, I can't help them. I luv cliffies at least writing them. So I can't help that. Very sorry. I know some other authors…leave cliffies and that's just a way to make sure the reviewer comes back for the next chapter. So that explains why authors do things they do. Yep Max did win YOU THINK I'D KICK OUT THE MAIN CHARACTERS IN THE FIRST ROUND?????????? I might hate Tyson, but I'm not that mean. I do mean things to my characters though…*smirks evilly* One more thing, I would like say to you that something in the way you write your reviews make me want to respond to them fast. So it is because of you that this chapter is up at this time.
