Chapter 3
Remembering the Past, Part One

"Come on out, Draciel," Max said. A purplish white light emerged from Max's beyblade, and standing in front of him was a boy Behind him with short, messy purple hair that stuck strait up andwas held up by a green deer hide band,and aqua eyes. He wore a green, baggy top, a purple vest, and baggy green pants.

"You too, Driger," Ray said. A golden white light emerged from his beyblade, and standing before him was a boy who appeared to be 15, with waist length white hair pulled back in a pony tail and wrapped in a strip of white cloth so that only and inch of hair was reveled at the bottom and green eyes. He wore a yellow head band with a yin-yang, exactly like Ray's red one, and similar attire to the other two bit beasts, except his was yellow and had green armor.

"Dranzer, you'd better come out as well," Kai said. A red light flashed, and there stood a boywith redhair with bangsthat fell past his cruelin eyes.He had a single gold earing in his left ear, and wore a long-sleeved red chinese dress shirt, lined in gold, and gold dress pants.

"It's about time," Dranzer said, his voice deep and fiery.

"Dranzer, what's going on?" Driger asked in his deep, purring voice.

"Yeah, somebody owes us an explanation," Draciel said. His voice was playful and bubbly, even when he wasn't.

"All right, I'll tell you everything," Kai said.

When Kai finished, everyone was quiet. The four bit beasts exchanged glances. "Kai, I don't think that was just a dream," Dragoon said.

"What do you mean?" Kai asked.

"1,500 years ago, the four of us, Dranzer, Draciel, Driger and myself, had four human friends. It was before Dranzer, Draciel and Driger were sealed in their bits, and I was sealed in the Dragon Heart sword. Their names were Maxwell Tate, Raymond Kon, Tyson Granger, and Kaile Hiwatari." Everyone just sat there, staring at Dragoon, waiting for him to continue, which he did.

"At the time, the Granger Clan, Tate Clan, Kon Clan, and Hiwatari Clan were all at war with each other. It made Maxwell, Raymond, Kaile and Tyson's lives very difficult. Especially since Maxwell and Raymond were lovers, and Kaile and Tyson were lovers."

At this the four boys blushed and sent sideways glances at their respective boyfriends: Max at Ray, and vise versa; and Kai at Tyson, and vise versa. Ray and Max had known for about a month, now, that Kai and Tyson were together and it worked the other way around, too. Tyson and Kai had kind of, well, let's just say the two of them walked in on Max and Ray making out, and the two couples ended up exchanging stories. These four boys were obviously their ancestors, and it seemed they had more in common with them then just their fist and last names and their relationship with Dragoon, Dranzer, Draciel and Driger.

Dragoon sighed and continued. "Unfortunately, Kaile was kind of obsessed with power…" Tyson snickered and sent a sideways glance at Kai, who, in turn, looked back, pretending to be hurt by the accusation.

"…and so, when his Grandfather offered him this incredibly powerful beyblade, he took it. Back then, some bit beasts, then called Sacred Beasts, could be summoned using a special symbol engraved in an item of great power, such as a sword, or a beyblade. The symbol on this beyblade had the symbol of Dranzer's twin brother, Black Dranzer."

At this everybody gasped, and Tyson, who had been sprawled on the floor, sat up. "I thought Black Dranzer was a biogenetically created bit beast made by Biovolt," Kai said, remembering, with a shiver, the event involving Black Dranzer that had taken place one year ago.

"Yes, well, all the so called 'artificial' bit beasts in the world were actually made in the image of a dead Sacred Beast, although their creators may not have realized it. Anyway, back to the story. In exchange for betraying his friends, that would have been Tyson, Maxwell, Raymond, Dranzer, Draciel, Driger and myself; Kaile received control of Black Dranzer, or, as you can probably guess, Black Dranzer received control over Kaile."
