Chapter 23 Hall hath no fury like a woman's scorn

" Great job Amy, I don't think I've seen an awesome battle like that in a long, long time," she grinned at the rest of the team, " and Kai I think she's defiantly in." The other's nodded their agreement. Kai growled at Sapphire and turned with a swish of his scarf and left.

" What crawled up his ass and die?" Amy muttered.

The rest of the team sweat dropped.

Kai stalked down the hall with a scowl. He tied with someone, a girl no less. A dark chuckle came from around the corner. Kai stopped and stood vertical with the wall. " Sir, everything is going as planned." Kai leaned over the side and sat Boris talking into a cell phone. " Don't worry sir…yes…Kai's in the tournament…they found a…yes…of coarse…Dickenson…the BBA…nothing will fail." Kai heard enough and walked the other way a frown creased his face and dark shadows flinted across his face. His hand flew into his pocket and he touched Dranzer, a comfort that it was still there.

Vinny paced in her room she snarled softly as she looked across the room at Lance. He sat near the window watching Sapphire and Amy practice. Stupid she thought dryly, going after something worthless when he had her. Sapphire would pay…for more than just stealing Lance…much, much more than that.

Sapphire hummed softly, her mood mush brighter than it had been in days. " So…what chance do you think we have of winning?' Amy looked up from across the field a doubtful look crossed her face. " Well…I really good chance, but you don't have a bitbeast…" Sapphire nodded and bit her lip. She was going to be the reason her team lost…that she was sure of.

Amy watched Sapphire closely, " Oh come on Saph, relax. I'm sure we'll still win." Sapphire nodded and sighed. " Can I tell you something?" Amy nodded and the two collected their blades and sat down.

" My name isn't Sapphire Becer, that's my codename." Sapphire waited for the usual comment that would follow, but Amy just sat there listening, " Silver Rye's my name I was created by Biovolt." Amy stared, " But…" Silver held up her hand. " Don't worry, I'm not about the steal anyone's bitbeast."

" The thing is…I have a bitbeast inside of me. Her names," She bent over and whispered it into Amy's ear, " She's an evil demon bitbeast, that's why Akela was able to hold her off; they balance each other out." She secretly wondered if that's why Alexiel was her energy support.

Amy stood up and paced, " So...you can blade…right?" Silver stood up too, with a sigh and nodded her head. " I should be able to…but don't tell the others." She pressed her finger to her lip and the two girls broke down into giggles like nothing serious had happened.

Max, Tyson, and Ray sat in the café. Max leaned forward, ignoring Tyson's eating habits once again. " Can you believe it?" Ray gave a smile and leaned back on his chair. Max continued, " I mean we can win two tournaments in one." Ray nodded and winced when Tyson spit some food out.

" Tyson…" Ray sighed and just picked up a napkin and wiped it away. He was never going to change.

Kai leaned against a wall of the being repaired stadium. " Hiwatari." He turned to look at Tala. He stood alone and staring at a glaring Kai. " What do you want?" Tala sighed and walked closer.

" Simple, Biovolt is back, you and I both know what their after." Kai grunted and Tala took this as a sign to continue. " But I learned something else…" Kai listened attentively as Tala talked.

Silver and Amy made their way down the streets of Moscow. " It's amazing what beyblade has become." Silver nodded lightly and something in the shop window caught her eye. " Amy…" Amy looked over. " It's nice." Silver tilted her head to the side. " Hey, look that one looks like Twilight." The two girls hurried into the shop.

" WHERE ARE THEY?" Tyson shouted. Amy and Sapphire suddenly turned the corner. " Sorry we're late!" They were panting and beads of sweat clung to their foreheads. They didn't have time to talk before they were dragged into the stadium.

" We are sorry for the delay!" shouted DJ Jazzman. A woman walked up to him and whispered something into his ear. The crowd and bladers shifted and murmurs rose. DJ coughed nervously. " I'm sorry, but would the Blade Breakers please come to the front?" They stood with confusion and walked over. The woman that was talking to DJ ushered them into a room. Sapphire's breath hitched as she caught sight of Lance and Vinny. Her gut turned in response.

A man sat at the head of the table. He removed his sunglasses and waved at them, motioning them to sit. " There has been some…disturbing news that has been brought to my attention." He turned his yellowish eyes to pin Sapphire. Sapphire took in a sharp breath and held it. " Sapphire Becer, I'm afraid to say that you cannot and will not be competing in either tournaments."

" What?" The Blade Breakers broke out in shouts about unfairness and whys. Kai sat where he was watching Sapphire. Her head was bent down and her hands were griping the table so hard that her knuckles were white. She suddenly pushed her chair back and everyone fell silent. Sapphire took a deep breath and turned. She walked out the door without a single glace back.

Tyson and Amy rushed outside, with Max, Ray, and Kai following. They glanced around and saw Sapphire standing in the middle of the complex. Her head was bent and in her hand she gripped her digital blade. She gripped it so hard that the glass was cutting into her palm and blood dripped on to the ice covered ground. " Silver." Amy whispered and gently took the blade from Silver's hand.

Sapphire her hand away from Amy and grabbed the blade. She threw it down hard against the stone floor. The blade shattered and the codes flew everywhere. " Leave me alone!" Sapphire shouted, " leave me alone!" Ray put a hand on her shoulder and Sapphire threw him off too.

" Sapphire-" Silver whirled around and her eyes were a blazed. " DON'T CALL ME THAT!" She screamed and tears streamed down her face. " My name isn't Sapphire Becer, it's Silver Rye! That's why I'm not allowed to blade!" Letting out a gasp, she covered her mouth and turned away from the shock faces. Silver got herself under control and wiped the tears away from her face. " I give up." She murmured brokenly. " I give up."

She walked away and Kai held Amy back as she went to run after Silver. " Let her go." Amy chocked back tears and turned to cry into Kai's chest. Silver walked on and the wind blew snow up. Silver was swallowed up in mist, leaving her by herself to figure out whom she was.

" Give me wings to fly."

I'm finally finished with this story! It took a year and I finished it. I know this isn't much of an ending, but…I got so sick of the story line, I decided to cut it off here and start a sequel. I'm already writing the sequel and hope you have it out on my birthday.
