After the testing beybattle with Rei, Daisuke's hanging at his place! I know Keisuke won't be very pleased to hear this! Anyways, she's still attending the Private School with the student chattering amongst themselves about HER. If this keeps up, I think there's gonna be bloodshed! After school, Keisuke's on her next target. The food crazed one. No, not Daisuke! Remember he's still in CHINA! Sheesh, talk about SHORT-TERM memory!

**A FEW DAYS LATER**

~AFTER SCHOOL~

"Finally!" Keisuke sighed with relief as she exited the school ground, loosening her red neck tie and unbuttoning her teal jacket. "Now, time to get some work done."

After straying on the deserted streets for a while longer, getting looks from the other students, she decided to head on to Tyson's place. Taking a right, Keisuke strolled down the already busy streets, keeping to herself and glaring back at people who glanced over to her.

~INFRONT OF TYSON'S DOJO~

"This is it." Keisuke stood infront of Tyson's place, a half smirk.

Tyson's grandfather, Mr. Kinominya, or we all know him as Gramps or Grandpa, was sweeping infront of the dojo, whistling to himself. He spotted Keisuke, lingering there.

"Hey, dude!" Grandpa stopped sweeping as well as whistling, calling to Keisuke who seemed somewhat distant.

"Hmm?" Keisuke snapped and shook her head, clearing it. She took noticed of the old man and responded with a rather unimpressionable voice, "Is Tyson here?"

Gramps shook his head no and replied, "T-bone is at the park! You can find my little man there!"

She nodded in acknowledgement, turned around and waved her right hand in a jester to say 'Later'. "Thanks."

Keisuke then headed to the park, both hands in its respective jacket pockets.

Gramps rested both hands ontop of the broom, resting his chin on his latched fingers, and clicked his tongue. "Looks like T-bone's gonna have another challenge. Dude's gonna be hyped up about this!" He then started to sweep again, whistling a tune of his.

~PARK~

-Now where is that obnoxious kid?- Keisuke scanned the park, standing ontop the entrance arch, with an irritated expression.

"Go Dragoon!"

"What the.........?" Keisuke found the owner's voice, the kid with his cap on backward and bright colored clothes. "Oh. Well he saved me the trouble of finding him."

Tyson was surrounded by on lookers, a triumph grin, winning another beybattle by an amateur challenger. He was near the jungle gym, a few feet away from where Keisuke is standing at. She ran along the wall, now standing infront of Tyson on the wall without his knowledge.

"Aww....." The challenger pouted as he retrieved his knocked out beyblade. He then looked up at the goofy grinning Tyson and said with a sudden change of expression, "You ARE the best Beyblader, Tyson!"

"Aw, geez" Tyson scratched the back of his head in embarrassment. "I'm just a typical kid."

Keisuke had already obtained her beyblade in its white launcher. She took this opportunity and dispatched her white beyblade into the simple dark blue bey-stadium.

"What the-?!" Tyson was taken back by the unexpected white beyblade.

"How about a more challenging beybattle?" Keisuke suggested, folding her arms.

"This is YOUR beyblade?!" Tyson questioned unbelievingly as he lifted his eyes. "How'd you managed to get UP there, anyway?" -He's wearing the same uniform as Kai...-

"Yes, it is my beyblade" Keisuke replied with a huff. "I jumped, of course. Now come on. Let me see what you got."

"You're asking for it, kid!" Tyson said, already discharging his grayish- white beyblade into the bey-stadium, colliding with the one.

Keisuke stood where she was. Luminous took the damage but it had no effect on its rotation.

"Hey, look!" A kid pointed out, "The white one took damage but shows no effect! Weird!"

"Yeah, definitely weird" Tyson agreed. "Okay, Dragoon, do your thing!"

The blue Dragoon arose from its resting place, roaring thunderously as it swiped its clawed talons around. Different tones of blue aura surrounded and outlined its extended body.

"It's gonna be over!" exclaimed the defeated challenger. "No one defeated Dragoon yet!"

"Tyson!" Kenny or Chief called as he ran to the crowd.

"Chief!"

"Keep in mind, kid, you said 'yet'" Keisuke said in a low voice. "Luminous, I summon thee!"

The familiar white dragon with soulless purssian blue eyes materialized from its relevant seal. It roared equally thundering as Dragoon, floundered its massive wings. White and pale blue aura glowed blinding as it outlined the dragon's body like scorching fire.

"What's going on here, Tyson?" Kenny asked, bewildered.

"This dude here challenged me to a beybattle! And I accepted!"

"With a BIT BEAST?!" Kenny exclaimed.

"Uh, I didn't know until now."

"TYSON!"

"Sorry!"

"Whoa! TWO DRAGONS! NEAT!" A boy overwhelmed with excitement.

Kenny shook his head and quickly flipped open his laptop.

"Hey, Chief! What's-" Dizzi was cut off short as she sensed a bit beast. "Wow! That white dragon bit beast is a lot powerful than Dragoon!"

"What?!"

"Check it out!"

Dizzi brought up a power chart which almost made Kenny fainted in shock. Luminous' power rate was twice as strong as Dragoon's.

"Be careful, Tyson!" warned Kenny as he attempted to retrieve data from Luminous. "That bit beast is stronger than Dragoon!"

"I figured!"

"Chit-chat time has ended. Now let's put where your beyblade is at!"

"Mostly in your mouth!"

"I doubt that it would fit. Luminous, collide!" -Always depending on data, they didn't know that Luminous is SURPRESSING its true power!-

"Dodge that Dragoon!"

The white beyblade quickly sprinted to the grayish-white beyblade, already colliding head on. The slightly darker beyblade wobbled a bit but quickly regained speed.

"Dragoon! Phantom Hurricane Attack!"

Dragoon stretched its clawed talons as visible winds appeared and encircles both it and Luminous, in a hurricane matter.

"Blinding Light, Luminous!"

Luminous expanded its scaly white wings and flashed blinding white light which caused Dragoon's Phantom Hurricane to rapidly disappear. Dragoon rubbed its eyes in hoping the white flashed had vanished.

"Luminous, attack now!"

The white dragon roared as it lunged its claws dead on to the dazed Dragoon. The beyblade itself charged towards the grayish-white beyblade.

"Defend, Dragoon!"

Luckily, Dragoon had brought up both its arms, crossing each other, the basic 'X'- defense, taking slight damage. Tyson's beyblade held its ground when the attack connected.

"Recoil and tail it, Luminous!" Keisuke commanded.

Luminous draw back, its wings expanded as its tail flickered up and down.

"What???" Tyson was at lost of Keisuke's choice of move, but at the moment, he couldn't careless. "Dragoon, take this opportunity at ATTACK!"

"That's not-!" Kenny's voiced drowned out because of Dragoon's roar, agreeing with Tyson.

"Amateur" Keisuke hissed quietly. "He won because of a fluke."

The grayish-white beyblade hurtled itself towards the white beyblade, expecting another head on collision.

Luminous awaited the storming Dragoon, until the moment to strike comes. And it did.

The blue Dragoon raised its right clawed hands, ready to drive it onto Luminous. The white dragon had seen an opening where Dragoon's lower body is most vurnable, quickly turned its back on the attacking dragon and while it was at it, swiped its claws on Dragoon's face. Dragoon roared but it had no time to react since Luminous whipped its tail to the lower body, causing the blue dragon soaring far back. Dragoon then retreated back to its seal.

To the on lookers, the grayish-white beyblade was stampeding dead on but the white beyblade moved a bit away from the attacking beyblade, making a U- turn, ramming up against the attacker. Tyson's beyblade seemed to about jerk away but Keisuke's beyblade again rammed back up, sending the opponent's beyblade soaring into the air and the gravity pulled it back down again, wobbling uncontrollably.

"Ah! DRAGOON!!" Tyson cried.

"That-that was unexpected!" Kenny stated in shock.

"As the saying goes, expect the unexpected, amateurs" Keisuke said. "And the winner is..."

Tyson's beyblade stopped spinning and dropped, rocking side to side. Keisuke's beyblade still spinning strong like it was just launched a second ago. She called her beyblade back and it does so. Tyson retrieved his Dragoon, trembling.

"....I" Keisuke finished with a triumphed smirk. "That battle was amusing for my taste. Expected so high of a World Champion but obtained so low."

"Why did you do what you did?!" Kenny demanded clutching his laptop. "And WHO are you?!"

"Hey, Chief! Easy on the drives!" Dizzi complained from within the laptop.

"My name is Keisuke Kashiwagi" Keisuke introduced herself. "I was only testing him to see if he is worthy."

"Worthy for what?!" Tyson asked, grasping Dragoon tightly.

"To see if he is on the standards that I expected to enter Tokyo's Duo Tournament" Keisuke explained. "He is pretty much on the standards of a middle ranking amateur. Anyways, the Tournament will be a two team battle instead of a five team. You, the BladeBreakers, White Tigers, All Starz and the Demolition boys will be participating in it. So I highly suggest you choose a partner that can teach you defense, Tyson since you obviously lack in that department."

"I AM NOT AN AMATEUR!" Tyson shouted. "AND I WILL WIN THAT TOURNAMENT!"

"You are an amateur" Keisuke stated. "Win the tournament, under my specialty? I think not since I'm in it with my partner."

"What's the prize?" Kenny cautiously asked.

"Be there and you will see" Keisuke replied as she stuffed her beyblade and launcher within her teal jacket. "The tournament will be held in exactly 3 months from now. Train all you need and I will see you there."

Keisuke waved dismissively with her right hand, leaping off the wall and onto the streets. -Amateurs. They don't know what hit them until the very last moment.-

The on lookers oohed and awwed, and then looked to Tyson and Kenny, expecting them to say something.

"He's powerful..."Tyson softly said, "Now I'm not so sure if I could win that Tournament."

"Actually, Tyson, he's a SHE" Kenny corrected. "And you CAN win the tournament if you work hard enough!"

"He's a SHE?!" Tyson and the crowd exclaimed in unison. "But she's wearing KAI'S school uniform! That's an ALL BOYS' PRIVATE SCHOOL if you didn't know!"

"I know." Kenny nodded. "But that makes it all the more suspicious of her, attending an all boy's school. I probably think she attended so she can beybattle with Kai as well."

"I just hoped he didn't lose to that creepy girl" Tyson hoped with a sigh.

"Just forget about it Tyson" Kenny urged. "Let's go to your place since I think I collected enough data on that Keisuke Kashiwagi."

"Yeah, good idea, Chief" Tyson nodded. "Later guys!"

"Yeah, good luck, Tyson!" One of the boys wished well as the crowd slowly departed.

~TYSON'S PLACE~

"Wow......"Tyson awed as he looked on with Kenny with Dizzi replaying the beybattle with Luminous.

"It seems to me that her bit beast, Luminous, I recall, did all those attack with surprising ease and precision" Kenny concluded, "while you on the other hand, handle it like you were blading with Tala and Kai mixed together or something close to that."

"Wha.....Did I look THAT bad???" Tyson asked blinking at Kenny.

"Well what am I SUPPOSE to think?" Kenny retorted, staring at the boy. He then turned his attention back to his laptop. "Anyways, I think we got more than we bargain for, Tyson."

"Whaddaya mean?" Tyson question, dumbfounded at the moment.

The boy with glasses sighed, incredulous to know that Tyson was THIS dense. Kenny pointed to the file on the screen, "Remember the last attack you did on her?" Tyson nodded. "Good. Dizzi can you make a close up shot of her bit beast and Tyson's?"

"Sure thing, Chief!" Dizzi chirped. The laptop whirred for a moment and another file showed up. "Done."

"Okay, what did she say, 'Recoil and tail it'?" Kenny racked his memory and then confirmed it. "Yes, I think that is right. Alright, she called Luminous to recoil-"

"What does 'recoil' mean???" Tyson interrupted, blinking innocently.

"Recoil means an act or instant to retreat for the time being" Kenny explained, trying to make sure that Tyson could comprehend it.

"Oh...I knew that" Tyson grinned goofily.

"TYSON!" Kenny exclaimed with exasperation. He then cleared his throat and then continued on, "Keisuke called Luminous to recoil, which could only mean that she was waiting for the moment to strike you unexpectedly. Mostly like to your vurnable spot. And then we see here," Kenny clicked on to another file, showing when the white dragon intercepted the blue dragon, playing it. "She did do that." Kenny felt something was wrong. He turned to face Tyson but found that he was....

"ZZzzzzZZ.............Food........."

"TYSON!!" Kenny shouted. He had to restrain himself to whack his laptop across Tyson's face and if possible get some sense into him. "WHY ARE YOU SLEEPING AT A TIME LIKE THIS?!"

"Five more minutes please.........?"

"TTTTTTTTYYYYYYYYYSSSSSSSSSSSSOOOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

"ZzzzzzzZZZZZZZZzzzzzzz................"

"I'M OUT OF HERE!" Kenny got up and carried his laptop. Putting his shoes and out the door he went, storming to his house, muttering about Tyson's obnoxious attitude.
