Angel- Yeah I know, the coming of age ceremony is for the age of twenty though. Different cultures, yes it is fun, but it is hard trying to make decorations for every holiday.

Jamesstutz-Thank you again, I guess if you enjoy it that is all that matters.

Skittles the Sugar Fairy- Okay, maybe I type your e-mail address wrong. Solstices, yeah I almost forgot about those, Mom would be extremely disappointed if she read that.

For all purposes I do not claim ownership of the two shows I use herein.

Disgruntled, could describe the Blade Breakers at this instant. Takao was currently dragging Max and Kyouju down the stairs of the his family dojo. Not to be left out Max grabbed Rei on the way who latched on the distant Kai having the whole group flying down the multicolored side streets of Japan. Kyouju, was trying desperately to regain his limb from Takao, unsuccessful in his attempt at least he had managed to stop Takao's pace for the moment. "Takao, what is the rush and what is with all the decorations?" Kyouju inquired. Takao tilted his head in wonder.

"Kyouju, you have been living in Japan how long?" Takao asked. Kyouju, blinked at him wondering what his question had to do with his. "Today is Tenno Tanjobi, the emperor's birthday." Takao explained to his puzzled teammates. All his teammates stared at him blankly. "Okay, imagine your birthday only bigger, everyone gets a break form work and many cool things." Takao said. His teammates nodded, and Rei stepped forward.

"Takao where are we rushing off to?" Rei asked. Takao smiled in answer and turned away tugging his companions onward. Rei yelled at Takao, "could we at least slow down, so we can enjoy the decorations?" He requested. Takao heard his request and slowed to a walk. Thrown in the trees aligning the main road where ribbons of royal purple, and red. The Blade Breakers reached down town and Takao lead them to a small group of trees in the middle of the cement sidewalk with benches surrounded them. Takao sat down and gestured for his companions to do the same, he flicked a glance at his wristwatch and leaned back. "What are we waiting for?" Rei asked as he caught Takao's action. Takao waved him off with a smile and closed his eyes. Rei frowned in response, but he smirked a minute later. "Hey, Takao, how about a battle?" Rei inquired. Takao eyes flew open and he stood, drawing out his launcher, beyblade and ripcord. Kyouju place his laptop open on his lap recording the data.

They both counted off and launched their bey blades at the exact moment of the end of the count. Dragoon and Driger rushed at each other only to swerve off in different directions at the last minute. Rei and Takao played a rousing game of chicken, before Max and Kai smirked at each other drawing out Dranzer and Draciel. They launched theirs into the battle, making it a four way battle. A few minutes later a fifth blade entered the fray and they smirked in recognition. "Zin." They all chime as they saw the familiar green blade. Takao's elder brother walked up in his casual outfit of Shippu no Zing. The soft part of the outfit was navy blue with the shoulder, elbow, knee, boots, and lower face shield being pure white. Clangs, sparks, and clashes echoed as the battle heated in intensity. A large crowd had begun to grow the battle as each blade entered the fray.

Usagi cheered as she dashed down her home stairs. Ikuko, Kenji, and Shingo glanced up as she grabbed her coat, a piece of toast, and her shoes. Having everything Shingo stood, and Usagi grabbed his hand dragging him out the doorway in her school way dash. "Bye, see you later, love you." Usagi called out to her parents as she left. Ikuko sighed and held out a brown paper bag to the black cat that came down the stairs, letting her out the door. Luna held tight as she ran after the sibling pair. Luna meowed in distress and Shingo turned hearing her, jerking Usagi to stop so Luna could leap up on his shoulder. Usagi seeing Luna secured took off again. "Can't be late, can't be late." Usagi muttered as she ran.

"You know with her going mach one I can not see how she is ever late." Shingo mused to his rider. Luna nodded in agreement as the pretty decorations passed by in a sickening blur of colors. Usagi halted quickly, stopping everyone else shortly. Shingo peered around Usagi trying to figure what was going on. His ears caught on the familiar clang of meeting bey blades. "Usagi, I bet that is our group we are meeting." Shingo said. Usagi nodded in agreement as she pushed toward the front of the crowd. They both laugh as they saw Rei, Max, Takao, Zin, and even Kai showboating for the crowd. Shingo flicked a glance at his watch noting the time he tapped on Usagi's shoulder. "Usagi it is almost time for the parade." he pointed out. Usagi nodded and stepped a little closer.

"Alright, you five quit showing off." Usagi order. They looked over, Max and Takao pouted, but they called back their bey blades. Usagi felt the crowd glaring at her in disappointment, and she turned to see Shingo glaring back at them. She grin at her annoying, but lovable younger brother, she missed the glares of the Blade Breakers at the crowd. Everyone stopped glaring when Usagi turned back to the competitive males. "The Emperor's parade is going to start soon." Usagi informed them. They nodded and the crowd dispersed as everyone lined the streets waiting for the parade to start. "Don't worry everyone, I am sure they will resume their battle after." Usagi pointed out as she saw the challenging looks between the males. Everyone cheered, and Usagi tugged the males to the waiting floats. She drew the over to where Daitenji-san and Daichi were standing. "I brought them like I promised." Usagi said as she saw them. Daitenji-san lead them to a float that resembled a large beyblade. Standing upon the level top of the float was the other teams, Usagi waved to all the familiar ones as the Blade Breakers climb on. She gave Shingo a boost up and watched as Kai kneeled offering her a hand up. Usagi shook her head, but smiled at him.

"Why are you not going on Usagi?" Daitenji-san asked, Usagi turned and looked at him.

"Someone's got to take pictures." Usagi said as she pulled out her camera.

"I'll take them, you go on." Daitenji-san offered.

"Nope, you get up there, Mr. Chairman." Usagi said. He sighed in resignation and climb up. Usagi smiled, but her eyes were at little disappointed.

"Well, I am glad I didn't raise a selfish girl." A female voice came from behind Usagi. Usagi turned to see her mother behind her. "Now, hand me that camera and scramble up there I want pictures of my babies riding the float." Ikuko ordered. Usagi sweat dropped at her mother's comment, but grabbed Kai's still offered hand climbing up. She heard her mother take a picture as she used Kai's hand as leverage. Usagi shook her head and shrugged as she stood on the float's base. Trumpets sounded and the float began to move.

Leading the parade was a line of professional drummers. Following was the trumpeters with two banner holders on either side with the Emperor's name on them. After that was the Emperor, himself being escorted on the shoulders of strong men who balance the moving pagoda. Following the four men and the emperor was a float with the character of prosperity and health erected on it. After that were floats of other good characters, like luck and joy. Nearing the tenth float was the B.B.A.'s float. Their float was balance on its tip with it being lashed and held securely with several ropes tied to the flatbed of the truck. The bey blade was modeled after the reigning beyblade champion Takao's Dragoon. White was main part of the attack ring, and all of the base except the very under belly. The attack ring had two Dragoon head shape wings sticking out from it, the eyes painted red and the tails running from it were green. Imprinted on the tails was Dragoon Galaxy with bold white letters. The weight disk was a metallic sliver and the under belly of the top had four green strips on it with Dragoon G written on them. Based on the bit chip of Dragoon was the Version two of the blue dragon.

Usagi smiled beautifully out at the crowd leaning gently against Rei's right shoulder and Takao's left shoulder. She had her right arm through Kai's left, and her left arm through Max's right. Sitting in front of her was Shingo who leaned against her legs. Behind Kai was the Neo-Borg boys, Yuriy, Ian, Bryan, and Spencer. Behind Rei was Bai Hu Zu, Lai, Mao, Kiki, and Gaou. Next to Max was his mother and the All-Starz, Michael, Emily, Steve, Rick, and Eddie. Next to Takao was his grandfather, his brother, the chairman, Daichi, and the Psykick's, Kane, Jim, Salima, and Goki. Spaced around was various beybladers and teams. They were all smiling, smirking, and waving out to the crowd. The float ride was ended in joy and they kneeled to the Emperor as he rode back to the state capital waving and throwing money coins into the crowd.

Together, they headed to the mall and joined the large party that was being held there. A little later their were several talents shown including a pair of dancing dragons, and a miniature show on the beybladers skill. After, Usagi waved good-bye saying she would see them later, giving them all hugs and rushing off to find her mother. Together, they went to home, and the Blade Breakers went to Takao's dojo.
