Masquerade

-ANNOUNCEMENT- I've found a site to post my art on 'Fan Art Central'. Look for KitsuneCrystal. I'll have some work up soon, and I hope you like it!

-TNTiggris-

I'm glad you like my fics!

-White Spirit Angel-

In my other story, Mirage, I've transformed Dranzer and Drigger into humans already...and they are together, I just haven't developed it yet.

-Forfirith-on-a-sugar-high-

Hm...Tala as that? That fits...but like other suggestions, it's going to be tweaked, because what I've planed for Kai contradicts it a bit.

-darksaphire-

Trust me, the girls will be chasing after Rei...and there will be competition between Storm and Kai over our poor Rei!

-DarkGift-

Yeh, I suppose I do, but I would like to make these clothes real. Your right, I think Rei and Kai are the best beyblade pairing, followed by Tala/Bryan, but I also like my newly invented pairing, Drigger/Dranzer.

-Shiroi-Tenshi-Tsubasa-

A marshmallow gattling gun? Sweeeet. So do you want the coconut, fruit flavored, (orange, lemon, lime, cherry, and watermelon) chocolate dipped, (white, dark, or milk) or plain marshmallows to go with it? ./ And it was sympathy about your arm and bad luck, not pity, so to show that, I'm going to give you two brief appearances in this fic...but you're going to wait to find out who you're gonna be, so if you want to tell me what you would look like, review this chapter with the details. Get well soon girl! I need your funny reviews! ./ (P.S-My Email is Why'd you want it? And can I have yours?)

-ChibiNekoSakura-

Like I already said, in my other ficcy 'Mirage', I've transformed Drigger and Dranzer already in it, so while you're waiting for the next chapter of 'Masquerade,' you can go read (and review!) 'Mirage.'

-UlTiMaTe KaI LuVa-

Well, everywhere I see it, its spelled Ying-Yang, so that's how I prefer to spell it, but thanks for the tip!

Wolborg was first; with a grin leaped onto a bench, in a flash

morphing into an 18 year old teen, who had the same canine grin. Wolborg

had shoulder length spiky silver-gray hair, with ice blue spikes in the back,

with two on top that looked like dog-ears. He also had ice blue eyes, which

sparkled with mischief. He was dressed in light icy blue sleeveless shirt,

gray denim jeans that had silver threads running through the weave, and

white leather calf boots. He also had bracelets, made of red metal, on his

wrists and ankles, from which jagged rock crystal spikes extended. He had

also a pair of yellow tinted aviator glasses perched on top of his head. He

then sat upside down on the bench, his legs hanging over the top. The

glasses, surprisingly, stayed on his head. "Your turn Fal!"

The falcon glared, then shifted. Falborg turned into a 17 year old, and

had wavy blonde hair that ended just above his shoulders, pulled into a

ponytail. Two thick tan bangs fell to his cheekbones, and framed his

amethyst eyes. He wore a yellow short sleeved shirt, and tan jeans that

flared at the ankles below two thick steel bands, above sand colored, leather

lace up knee boots, and had a sand colored braided leather and steel chain

choker, with matching armbands, and from each dangled two nine inch long

yellow falcon feathers. When his shifting was done, he went over and

slapped Wolborg's leg, sitting right side up away from him. "Anyway, get

to it Dranz."

"Watch it, you cheeky pigeon!" he said, grumbling, and shifted. He

turned into a 18 year old, with dark crimson hair that fell to the middle of

his back, pulled back from his face with a black clip, his two spiky gold

bangs falling to his chin, framing ember-like black and red eyes. He was

dressed in a dark red tank top that was armored on the front with bone

plates, matching the bone and gold armbands around his upper arms. His

black jeans glittered with the gold threads that ran through it, matching his

knee length black leather boots with the gold plates on the heel and toe.

After his shift, he turned to Drigger.

"You next, Tiger." Drigger got up and jumped onto another bench,

morphing as he did into a 16 year old teen, with emerald green hair that

reached his lower back, two inches wrapped with strips of gold to hold his

ponytail, matching the two gold-wrapped pieces of hair lying on his chest

and framing his eyes, which were a mix of dark amber and emerald green.

He wore a white Chinese style tank top, with dark green trim, and white

jeans that had metallic emerald green tiger stripes, and white flats. He had

two gold wristbands, two gold armbands, and two gold ankle bands, all six

having a sharp golden spike that curved outwards. Tala was the first to

speak.

"Okay guys. Take your respective bit beasts and go find your

costumes. I assume we all have our cell phones?" They all nodded, and

went there separate ways.

O0O0O0O

Tala and Wolborg walked through the store, looking through all the

store windows.

"So, Tala, what are you going to be?"

"I really don't know. Any suggestions?" During when Tala was

talking, Wolborg spotted something in a window.

"Uh, yes! Come on!" he said, pulling Tala into a store called Black

Ice.

"Wolborg! Wha..."

"Try this on!" the wolf said, cutting him off and putting a silver garment

bag in his arms, shoving him into an empty dressing room. Tala came out a

few minutes later, and looked in the mirror.

"Damm! That is the perfect costume for you!"

"I like it! Especially these ice spike wings and accents...and

the white leather pants."

"Then GET it!"

"I am. But are you sure that I look good in this?"

"Four words: Bryan. Will. So. DIE!"

"I hope he doesn't..."

"Well, something like that anyway. Hm...If I get a pair of those

pants, I wonder what my Fal would say..."

Wolborg mused.

"Falborg?"

"Yep."

"No way...you and Falborg?" Wolborg snorted.

"Well, yeah! Whenever a Bit beast's holder finds his soul mate, their

bit beasts are soul mates as well. I think it's because of the extremely strong

bond between a bit beast and their holder. No that I'm complaining." Tala

thought back to Kai, and his 'little' ("Okay, BIG." He thought.) problem.

"How do you know if you and someone else are soul mates?"

"Drigger is really the person you want to ask about that kind of stuff,

because Drigger can sense feelings, or whatever you call it...I don't really

know how that works out. Anyway, he explained this stuff once to us. I

guess it was because Dranzer had asked him about that..." As realization

dawned on them, the two grinned at each other.

"Well, I know Kai loves Rei..."

"And I've seen those glances Drigger gives Dranzer..."

"Hm...so to get Kai and Rei..."

"Together..."

"We need to also..."

"Get Dranzer together with Drigger!" Wolborg finished. "But how?"

he faltered, but then realization lit up in both their eyes.

"THE DANCE!" they said together, slapping a high five. "Let's go

find Bryan and Wolborg!"

After Tala got back into his normal clothes, they paid for the

costume; and after grabbing the silver garment bag, ran out of the store,

looking for a way to get Kai and Rei, and Dranzer and Drigger, together.

(O)(O)(O)

Meanwhile, Bryan and Falborg were in another store, called

Millennium. Falborg was reclining on a couch, one arm thrown causally

over the side, and Bryan was standing in front of a 180-degree mirror,

adjusting the wings that went to his costume.

"Are you sure I should get this one?"

"Hell yeah! Tala will be floored!" Bryan turned to his bit beast, the

steel chains across his chest clinking.

"You really think so?" he said, sweeping a lavender lock of hair

behind his ear.

"Yeeeeesssss, I do. Just close your eyes and hold on a sec..." the

falcon got up, and when no one was looking, reached through a portal, and

brought out a dark purple velvet box that was ten inches by ten inches.

Closing the portal, Falborg opened the box.

"Okay...open your eyes!" Bryan did, a gasped.

"Whoa." In the box was a ring made of pure steel that was set

invisibly with diamonds that caught the light.

"You think this is cool? Watch this!" Falborg chanted a few words,

and the ring floated just above Bryans head, like a halo, with no strings

attached.

"Double whoa."

"Yep. Okay, Bryan. If we are going to get this one, then we gotta pay

for it, so get dressed." Bryan went into the dressing room, and after getting

dressed, went and paid for the costume.

"So what do you want to do?"

"Let's go find Ta...who's shouting my name?" his question was

answered quickly when Tala and Wolborg grabbed their boyfriends and

dragged them outside the store.

"What the hell?! Tal...!"

"Shh! Me and Wolborg need you and Falborg's help!"

"For what?"

"For getting Kai and Rei, and Drigger and Dranzer together!" Bryan

grinned.

"I am SO In! What do we do first?" listening to what Tala had in

mind, Bryans grin grew wider.

"Perfect!"

iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

-Hm. I tried some paragraphing. Its it a bit better to read now?-

-Guys- As you might have seen already, I'm not going to describe the costumes until they actually show them to each other. But I will drop some hints to quench your curiosity a bit. So bear with me!-
