"Let... it... rip!" Tyson, three times world champion, let out his beyblade once more. It spun around the beystadium, charging around like it owned the place. It was soon joined by Ray's, one of Tyson's team members. They spun around each other in a fierce circle.
It was not long before their battle was over. Tyson had been training hard while Ray had been visiting his home village in the mountains. Max, another friend and member of the Bladebreakers, grinned as he once more declared Tyson the winner.
"Come on Ray, I seem to remember you as being a lot tougher than this." He teased.
"Come on Tyson, I've hardly had time to train since I left for home. One more battle, before we get back." Ray challenged him yet again, Tyson checked his watch, having to reluctantly recline.
"Sorry Ray, but I have to get back. Grandpa said he's got a surprise for me back at the dojo. Do you wanna come?" He offered; both Max and Ray accepted gratefully. Tyson's family was well known for being great cooks. "Cool, hey! Last one there's got no pizza!" He called; all three ran to the dojo, fast.
They arrived at last, catching their breath after running from Max's home. To everyone's surprise the whole of Tyson's family seemed to be there. They all stood there surprised.
"Tyson! My man! Where've you been?" His grandpa jumped in front of him. Startling Tyson so much he fell over. Everyone laughed.
"Grandpa! Come on man!" He groaned, getting up and ignoring his two friends who were biting back their laughter.
"Hey Tyson! I was wondering when I'd see you!" A female voice said behind him, he groaned. The brunette behind him was none other than Hilary, Kenny's sister. He groaned even louder, the two were sworn enemies, well, not quite. Ray and Lee, a member from the notorious White Tiger team, were enemies, Tyson and Hilary just didn't get on.
"Go away Hilary." He told her, she scowled.
"Fine, I'm not going to be civil to you. I WAS going to show you Isis but you can go and find her on your own." She replied folding her arms. Tyson almost immediately perked up.
"She's back from England? When?" He asked. Isis was his favorite cousin, only cousin in fact, who was also a pro beyblader. Hilary nodded.
"Yup, she came back this morning, and she's got a new trophy thingy as well." She said. "But I guess you don't want to see her so-"
"Of course I want to see her! Where is she?" He demanded. Hilary sighed as though she was expecting it.
"In her bedroom, she's unpacking as we speak." She told him, he was off before you could say Let it rip. Max and Ray just stood there, not quite sure just what was going on. Hilary decided to fill them in. "Isis is Tyson's English cousin. She lives here sometimes too though."
"How come this is the first time we've heard of her?" Ray asked. Hilary rolled her eyes.
"Isis is a professional beyblader like you guys. She spends most of her time on tour." She explained. They nodded to show they understood. "Well, I'm going to find her. She should be packed by now." She told them and walked off, leaving them once more to dwell on the news.
"Ray, Max. Good to see you again." Kai stepped out of the shadows, nodding his head towards them in acknowledgment.
"Hey Kai, what are you doing here? I thought you went back to... Well wherever?" Ray asked him. Kai scowled.
"I'm on the trail of a new Beyblader. There's a new band stealing bitbeasts, I thought I'd drop by and warn you." He told them. Max's smile slipped slightly.
"So much for a social visit." He muttered; he instantly received a threatening look from Kai.
"I don't do social Max. Remember that." He told them darkly. He turned to leave.
"Hey! You're the famous Bladebreakers aren't you?" A girl around Kai's age appeared through the crowds.
She was willowy with pale skin and long raven like hair that fluttered stylishly in the wind. She had large lilac eyes and a small nose. She held a good natured smile on her lips as she took her hand out for them to shake. It seemed only Kai didn't seem bothered by her looks.
"Who are you?" The girl withdrew her hand, using it to cover a small laugh of embarrassment.
"Sorry, I expect people to know me already; over in the UK they do anyway." She explained, "My name is Isis Kinomiya. Also a pro beyblader such as you are yourselves." She told them.
"Oh! Hilary was telling us about you, you're Tyson's cousin aren't you?" Max asked her. She grinned.
"Yup. Where is Hil? I need to tell her something... Oh they have the sweetest little things in London, like this Ferris wheel called the big eye. You can see the whole city from up there..." She sighed, not noticing the looks on all three lad's faces - confusion. "Yikes! Have to go, got to tell Hilary!" She laughed again and waved good bye.
"Feh, I'll see you around." Kai muttered, walking off. Ray and Max scarcely took notice. Still looking for the mysterious Isis in the crowds...
