Shitza: Okay, I guess it's time for another update. The main reason, I am home, I'm sick… I have an irritating cold that won't leave me!
Kai: Can't believe her!
Ray: Your mother told you to rest you know!
Shitza: Know, but I am terrible bored.
Zeo: At least it means she will continue the story, last chapter made me want to read the next.
Max: Sure, she's evil. She has paired up every single girl and guy from the show with someone. ARRRGGHHH!
Zeo: Huh?
Tyson: What happened?
Ray: O.O
Shitza: Max tried to take the cookies, but I guess I sort of knocked down the chair he stood on.
Max from the floor: Told you she was evil!
Everyone: sigh…
Daichi: (Pops up) Shitza don't own Beyblade or us. And as for that cookie affair, it wasn't her fault; it was all Max's.
Max: WAS NOT! (Chases Daichi out the frame)
Shitza: Review, and perhaps we can sort out this racket!
Chapter 14 Fight between the Elements
Today was the day, today was their last match they could perhaps influence their goal to victory. Their last chance to prepare themselves before the final. Everyone had to admit they were nervous for the outcome of the match. After all, no team had been able to beat their opponent. They listened as Daichi ran through a list of useful tricks he had learnt while living in that valley. All of them sounded incredible and unbelievable. For example, he told them how to communicate with other bit beasts, how to heal it from its injuries. Even how you shared your soul with it during a match.
"Isn't that what Ana is doing right now? Sharing her soul with her bit beast to protect herself from that corrupting power?" Kai asked.
Daichi shook his head. "Not quite. She is letting herself wander corrupted by her bit beast. Her soul is forced back to prevent it from being controlled by that damn thing. After all, my sis has always been vulnerable against darkness, or rather say evil darkness."
"And about that, about soul share. I don't understand it?" Ray said.
It means you and your bit beast will share both thought and bodies. Driger will be half of you and you will be half of Driger. It is complex, but very useful. I know you guys have done similar things in your previous matches. After all, of all of you I believe Tyson and Kai already understand what I mean. It's you and Max that needs to practise. You have to be one with your bit beast."
Ray shook his head worried. Actually, he had no idea how.
"Isn't that dangerous?" Mariah wondered as she walked beside Ray. To her horror Daichi nodded.
"It's one of the most dangerous ways of battling, ever. You see once you share souls you also inflicts more damage upon yourself. Every blow your bit beast experience is reflected upon you. People have died in that way, but if we are going to beat these things then that is our only choice. After all, I fear that if the Elementals win this year, it will also inflict damage upon the world. The valley is the centre for all bit beast power, and with Veymo Thon as their leader I fear this will be another Voltaire. Sis has told me enough, not only does he throw away people and things he think aren't useful. He also makes sure they will never be able to follow him. He sent sister to Biovolt for a special reason, something I know nothing about."
"I think I know the answer to that Daichi, but we can discuss those matters once we have thrown that thing back were he belongs. In hell!" Kai said boiling of anger.
"In some ways, Veymo is even worse then Voltaire. Even his name means Death Madness. Problem is that he already has powers over the villages, except for Darkness and Ice. Darkness seems to have figured him out beforehand and refuses to let him in. And the Ice people are lone wolves who never allies with anyone. But he has the majority of villages, and the majority of bit beasts behind himself. He is a strong and mighty opponent."
"So, what do you reckon will happen if that team wins this year?"
"The worse. Bit beasts destroying the world and causing havoc. Our bit beasts won't be an exception. Once his victory is sealed they will most likely disappear from our blades and the next time we will see them they will probably be the ones to kill us."
"WHAT!" Tyson said shocked. "Dragoon would never turn against me!"
"Neither Draciel!" Max filled in.
"I know" Daichi said. "But once it happens then they won't be able to recognise us. They will believe us to be demons or something even worse. They won't hesitate to kill."
Kai sighed. He took out Dranzer and stared at the bit chip. He couldn't see it; he couldn't see his Dranzer devouring him.
"The village follows the will that the ten greatest bit beasts ever will arise again. Veymo must have tricked the villagers to believe he has the answer, which will be a lot quicker then blood bounding as all priests and priestesses believe in. You see, the priests in the villages once foresaw a gigantic bit beast, fused by the ten great once, that could bring the world back to harmony and dispose all evil in the world. It was as the bit beasts were first discovered. But as you all know, something went wrong and the ten sacred ones split into pieces. All the village has been able to do, after thousands of years, is to reconstruct Serpera into one. We are close to find the other nine, bit so far no luck. Sis and I have some theories since we are the more courageous ones who have searched the world. Actually, it is my believes that your bit beasts have something to do with it."
Everyone stared at Daichi as the team finally arrived back at the Norwegian stadium.
"But that is impossible!" Kenny said. I mean, surely the bit beasts are strong, but not that strong. I have measured your bit beast's strength and it reaches the roof. Our…"
"Kenny, what didn't I tell you all long ago? The most powerful ones happened to be a turtle, tiger, phoenix and dragon. Do you understand my point?"
"But…"
"I know this is hard to understand, but please listen instead of complaining and it will be far easier to let this message melt in. Ten bit beasts disappeared for about ten thousand years ago, no one has either seen or heard about them since. Serpera was pure luck that he appeared once more. And if you think closer about it, it all fits. Take this as an example. There is a village called the Lighting Village in the valley, whose duty is to guard the Tiger of Lightning. Isn't that what Driger is, a White Tiger of Lightning or Thunder."
"So Driger should be one of the most wanted bit beasts in the world, my… You surely are good at surprising us!" Ray said laughing.
Daichi sighed. So far it was simply thoughts, but if it all fitted, then again he had no real proofs. He had no equipment to look it up.
He hurried off to the changing room, where the team would have to decide about the upcoming battles. Truth to be told, he really wondered if it was really necessary since all senses pointed out, they would have to loose.
The Majestics sat glued to the screen, anxious to know if their friends would make it? The White Tigers sat in their hotel room, watching as their teammate wandered by Ray's side, looking as nervous as the team itself. Team Zeo sat in couches, waiting to know the outcome, wishing their friends good luck. The anticipation and ambitions to win had to be cut by a knife, if you wanted to know the details of what was happening.
The battle started out with the handshake, but by looking at the two captains the two of them looked ready to kill the other one. All cameras around the world was set on their faces as Kai walked back to his teammates. His hand still burning from that shake and his face still locked in that evil grin he had showed. He sat down on the bench. Daichi got up and walked over to the dish. For the second time in this tour, his opponent would be Rumoto, and it hadn't been the Chief to tell him. He had said this himself.
"Chief, before we start out, let me battle Rumoto again. I mean, that girl is from my Birth place and she needs to be taught a lesson."
Sure Daichi, I just hope you know the best!" Kenny had said typing on Dizzy. "Just remember…"
"I know all about her, we trained together once. We and all the other children."
Chief nodded and Daichi sighed of relief."
On the other side of the field, Veymo was talking rapidly to Rumoto.
"Remember how he used to put you down, remember how he despised you. Give him pain and tears for what he has done to you! If you want to, kill him!"
Rumoto smiled. This would be fun.
The dish for this match was a mountain with what seemed to be a hundred caves. It would be a cat and rat chase, because most of the time neither one of the bladers would be able to see their blades as they battled.
Daichi launched like usual. But his launch was rather nervous and the reason was easy to see, as Rumoto launched. Her whip lashed the air and struck his shoulder, ripping his shirt. He had a nice burn from the blow as he fell to his knees.
The spectators were shocked. Rumoto smiled as her blade attacked. Tenira attacked Strata Dragoon and forced him backwards. Daichi opened his mouth to say an attack, but Rumoto struck him again. Daichi winced in pain.
"Come on Daichi, don't let her beat you!" Max said. Yet he, like the whole team was worried of this match. After all, this was impossible to battle in. Ray was strongly reminded about his match against Bryan, only this time it wasn't a bit beast attacking, it was the blader herself.
At the dish Rumoto was laughing. "Have you lost your touch, oh mighty priest? Maybe I should finish you off right now and the village will have to rethink on what they voted. After all, you are not even close to the title."
Daichi was shocked. Priests were the best male bladers in each village. He couldn't believe what he heard, after all he had never thought of himself as the best for years. He had been cocky and tried to live up to the standard, but known deep inside that he still would be somewhere between. But if he had been chosen priest, then what had the world gotten to?
Rumoto attacked him again, and Strata Dragoon started wobbling. Daichi was so lost in his own thoughts he didn't even think of defending himself. He did nothing; he didn't even hear his friends behind him, yelling at him to attack.
It all looked as if it could be over soon, Strata Dragoon was loosing speed and strength to continue.
"He's not going to make it" Hilary said worriedly. Tyson put his arm around her shoulders and sighed. "I think you're right."
Daichi looked down on the floor, thinking. He knew he was loosing, but he still had some tricks up his sleeve. Murmuring some ancient words he summoned a part of Strata Dragoon to his, while letting another part glide into the bit beast. Strata Dragoon rose again from close defeat. The battle wasn't over yet…
"All right, go kick her but!" Tyson said excitedly. His team didn't even bother telling him off, all of them were watching the match with interest.
"Strata Dragoon, Rising Quake!" Daichi called. The dish started shaking violently, crushing the mountain from inside.
Rumoto gritted her teeth. "Tenira Egyptian Tomb!" she said.
Sand washed away from her blade, completely covering strata Dragoon. At first it looked as if the match would be over, but a second later the violet blade shot up from it's fate and landed on a small rock. The dish itself had changed from a rocky mountain into a sandy desert. Everyone was shocked, everyone except the two bladers in the battle.
"Not to bad, at least you can still attack!" Daichi said evilly, trying to tease her.
"Shut up, let's finish this! Tenira, Sand Wave!"
More sanded erupted and Daichi shielded his eyes. But the battle wasn't over yet. The Bladebreakers saw to their astonishment how Strata Dragoon moved closer its opponent.
"What, after all this, how do you do that?"
The sand wave dropped and Daichi coughed. "You are not only battling against me, but also my team. I may loose, but I am going to show you a thing or two about blading. Strata Dragoon attack!"
The blade bounced from the ground and attacked from air. Rumoto heightened her whip to strike, but Daichi jumped out of the way!
Rumoto was angry and attacked over and over again. Incredible enough Daichi took every blow with a scary calmness. His blade was crushed into splinter, but he didn't seem to mind. Five minutes later, all that existed left was the bit chip. However, Daichi didn't seem to have moved an inch and he was still smiling.
Jazzman announced the winner. Daichi sighed, picked up Strata Dragoon and sighed. Then he searched his pocket for Gaia Dragoon.
"Next time, I will win Rumoto. And next time, you will have to face this!" he said holding out the two bit chips. Then he walked back to his friends, defeated yes… but he had a plan. He bent over to Max's ear, and whispered something to him.
Rumoto walked back to her team, fists shaking with anger. That thing had tricked her, he truly owned, the strongest earth elemental bit beast in the world.
"Max, you are up against Sakhmekh of the Elementals. Any complains?" Chief wondered.
Max shook his head, like most of his team he wondered if they would be able to win this. Ray rose from his seat, he was complaining.
"Chief, I have to disagree. I did promise the White Tigers to finish that thing of for Mariah."
Kenny shook his head. "Sorry Ray, I have other plans for you. Still, I don't have any hopes this time winning. If you compare statistics the Elementals are way better then us."
Tyson shook his head in the background. "I still can't believe we haven't seen them in any tour previously. I mean, if they are this good, why don't they join and kick us out beforehand?"
"I've said this beforehand Tyson. Almost none of the villagers in the valley care about the titles. We have other reasons for being in this tour, yet simply ignoring others."
And so their fight between the two bladers was on. It was at least good to know some things never change.
Sakhmekh listened to what Veymo had to say. Half listened really, cats rarely cared about those things.
Veymo noticed his pupil's lack of interest. A really evil yet effective idea formed in his head.
" He also despises Neko Jins and hates cats…"
Sakhmekh opened his eyes. They formed into slits. He scratched the tiger skin he was wearing and yawned. "Why didn't you say so before?" he asked while running over to the dish. He would enjoy teaching hits American a lesson.
"AN NOW IT'S FINALLY TIME FOR THE SECOND DUEL OF THIS EXCITING MATCH! THIS WILL BE A POISONOUS APPEARANCE AND A DRENCHING PLAY! LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, BLADERS AND FANS, BOYS AND GIRLS OF ALL AGES. PLEASE WELCOME FROM THE ELEMENTALS… SAKHMEKH!"
Jazzman's voice boomed over the whole field as the crowd of spectators cheered for the Elemental who practically jumped up to the dish. Everyone gasped as the show of in tiger skin did volts and jumps. From the team everyone sweatdropped.
"AND FROM THE BLADEBREAKERS WE HAVE MAX TATE, AMERICAN CHAMPION AND INCREDIBLE DEFENDER OF HIS TEAM'S TITLE!"
Max got up and walked up to the dish. He stared at his opponent, which was a mistake. Sakhmekh offered him a glare that would surely have killed Max ten times already, if looks could kill.
"BLADERS IN POSITION! THREE… TWO… ONE…"
"Let it rip!" both bladers said. Their blades landed in a bowl, which had about the oddest shape ever. There was no real dish, only a tree where the two blades fought angrily. Three of the branches held what looked like nests, but else there were only branches to fight in. Below the tree, there was nothing.
Sakhmekh's blade Moheda attacked Draciel over and over again. Max had to rely on his defences to take the blows that were seriously damaging.
The blades climbed higher and higher up the branches until they had reached the top. There Max took his chance to attack, not knowing how much this would work, but still. He wouldn't loose that easily.
"Draciel, now is your chance! Heavy Tsunami Wave!"
Water rushed down the branches almost taking Moheda down on the way. Sakhmekh got drenched and he hated that. He hated Max!
Sakhmekh heightened his launcher that like most other launchers of his people had two uses. One as a launcher, two as a weapon. Max didn't have time to react, as the tiger paw hit him, claws out.
Max fell as his chest had been ripped. Not dangerously but it still hurt. The whole stadium was shocked. And worse it would become.
Sakhmekh heightened the chained paw again, this time Max had time to avoid, but the weight of the stone filled thing made serious damage to the platform they stood on. And to everyone's horror, they could do nothing to stop it.
"Moheda, Web of destruction!" Sakhmekh ordered. A gigantic green spider erupted from the bit chip and created a web that covered the whole tree. Draciel had a hard time, he was caught.
"Moheda, finish this! Poisonous web, send that cat hater to his grave!"
'Cat hater?'
Max closed his fists and his eyes once more glowed pure blue. "Draciel, Heavy Tsunami Wave, send that thing away!"
Once more Sakhmekh was drenched and now he was extremely angry. Moheda managed to stay in the match, thanks to all webs he had constructed. Yet most of the web had been destroyed and Draciel was allowed to move.
"Good work Draciel" Max said encouraging. "Now, let's see if we can finish this off, Attack!"
Sakhmekh backed several steps, but he wasn't out from the match yet.
'I cannot believe this guy; boss told me he hates cats, but why does he act like he is only battling for fun. Doesn't make any sense?'
Draciel was attacking Moheda over and over again. Yet as close attacks wasn't Max strongest way of battling, his opponent was knocked out yet. However, Moheda was loosing speed and power.
'He was lying, he must have… There is no other way to explain it.'
Moheda was an inch from defeat when the blade suddenly glowed and pushed Draciel backwards. Max looked confused at his opponent. Sakhmekh had lowered his launcher and held his right hand over his heart. It seemed as if he was listening to something.
Strangely enough Draciel responded by glowing and the match seemed to have frozen for a moment. The weird feelings all stopped as Sakhmekh opened his eyes again, smiling.
"I see!" he said knowingly. "So I have been wrong all the time. Well, well… let's finish this my friend. Spider Bite!"
Moheda knocked Draciel out, which landed by Sakhmekh's feet. Max sighed and looked defeated down at his own feet. Suddenly a hand appeared before him, holding his blade. Max looked up to see the Elemental smiling.
"That was a great match, I hope our teams will meet in the future."
Max smiled as the two bladers shook hands. The Bladebreakers, all except for Ray and Kai, cheered. Kai simply kept quiet like usual, and Ray felt defeated, as he had to admit they weren't monsters after all.
Max returned silently to his team, who all congratulated him for the excellent show, even if he lost, but he had gained something else. A new respect. All though he still wondered what had happened out there. Maybe one day, he would get the answer.
(Shitza: And for those who have read this story extra carefully, perhaps already know the answer to that. Aw, I write too much!)
For the next match Tyson got up. His opponent would be…
"The demon of water, the piranha on land, the elite fighter of water…. AAHH, I cannot believe this!"
Chief had gotten crazy; yet still mad was a better way to say it.
"You mean, he is up against Lei Dan?" Daichi asked calmly.
Chief nodded slowly. Daichi sighed.
"Oh great… Tyson, remember then to have some dry clothes nearby. That is my advice for when that battle starts, we will all probably be soaked. Knowing Lei, he can be tricky, yet a fool. Nothing really to worry about, he talks more then he battles."
Most of this the ex-Elemental said to calm himself then to calm Tyson. After all, Lei like most others, had dirty tricks up his sleeves.
Lei Dan, the chosen represent for the Water Village stood up. His launcher, or to say the metal ring he used as a launcher, hung by his belt. He was ready to fight; he truly wanted to win this.
Veymo stood in front of him, guiding him through the match. After all he was about to meet the current World Champion. Not that he was nervous or so, after all no bladers really had a chance against them.
"I have something for your blade." Veymo said. He held up a thin attachment to his attack-ring. Place this on your blade, and then this match will be an easy win. Understand.
Lei shrugged and did as he was told. Cheating or not, it didn't really matter to him as long as he won.
"AND IT'S THE THIRD ROUND WITH THE WORLD CHAMPION TYSON AND THE SHARP DUELLER LEI DAN!"
The spectators cheered, especially for Tyson who after all was tour favourite. It was rather nervous applause for the Elemental, after all having seen the two previous matches people had started wondering whom to cheer for.
The dish was another masterpiece, inspired from the Asiatic culture. A really beautiful mansion in the middle surrounded by high walls. It looked very much like a previous dish from the Asian tour, when Ray and Mariah had fought for the first time in years.
The two bladers launched, and Tyson had to jump several steps backwards to avoid that metal ring that threatened to cut his foot in half. Lei growled, after all a blader thinking more of a hurt part of his body would have been a much easier opponent.
Tyson growled too, and called upon Dragoon to start attacking. Each blow Lei's blade Buetra experienced seemed to be reflected upon the blader.
'So, he is sharing soul' Daichi thought. 'Tyson has to be careful; once that thing attacks it can mean our doom.'
Yet Tyson thankfully didn't seem to leave any holes for his opponent and Lei Dan winced in pain. Everyone stared as the Elemental fell to his feet. Tyson suddenly stopped his attacks, unsure of what was happening.
'No Tyson, continue' Daichi thought.
"Tyson, don't let your guard down!" Hilary called. Yet Tyson didn't seem to hear her.
Before the Champion had time to react the other blade had started attacking, and attacking fiercely.
"Buetra, attack!" Lei called over and over again now being the one to not leave any holes to attack in.
Buetra threw Dragoon into the mansion, crushing the walls on the way. The whole building fell over Dragoon, yet the blade continued spinning.
"Dragoon, I cannot win without you. Let's finish this thing!" Tyson said.
But it didn't help. Nothing seemed to help him. Dragoon was once more forced to retreat.
"Tyson, don't give up, fight!" Daichi finally managed to say. "Remember what I told you before, about sharing souls. You are one of few people who know how to do that, you have the gift to do it! You cannot win without healing Dragoon from inside."
Tyson looked confusedly back at his friends. All nodding.
"Remember what Robert once said, about being one with the bit beast." Kai said.
"He is just a pushover!" Max yelled.
"Max is right, he is not a Bladebreaker, like us!" Ray finished.
Tyson nodded. He smiled victoriously. Lei Dan was still attacking, but this time, those attacks didn't mean anything.
Suddenly a huge wave of energy seemed to escape him, as another wave entered him. Dragoon glowed in a blue light, the same happened to Tyson. Everyone gasped as the strength of their bond broke out and an incredible huge wind erupted stealing Buetra from the ground, throwing her away.
Lei sighed deeply. He was defeated.
Tyson felt his energy flood back, as Dragoon's left him. He grinned back to his friends, who all were beaming. Even Kai had to admit he was impressed, after all few had been able to beat an Elemental. Yet Lei wasn't the most powerful one.
Hilary met him with a congratulating kiss, something that made him blush furiously as the cameras all caught this. Indeed over the last days there had been a lot of romance in the Beyblading world.
Lei walked back to his teammates, where both the captain and the second in command seemed completely ignoring him. Only Sakhmekh seemed to care about him, yet Sakhmekh was a rather sharp one, and he knew something his teammates didn't.
The excitement rose, would the Bladebreakers perhaps pull up a victory, or would it be defeat?
"Ray" Chief had said. "Your opponent is Raya (pronounced Raja). She uses a fox spirit in her battle." He said showing them a clip of her previous match with Gary versus the red haired Elemental. Indeed in one of the slips Kenny had managed to take a shot of the magnificent Fire Fox.
"O-okay" Ray said nervously clutching his blade.
"One more thing you better think of, be prepared to dodge some knife work in this." The Chief said.
"Huh?"
"She is really skilled by tossing knives" Daichi explained silently. "Her father was the one to teach her, and I am afraid that with sis' father as a coach, you have to be extra careful."
Ray nodded, trembling slightly. At least, when he had been battling Bryan, he at leas didn't have to be this nervous over it all.
"Raya, don't make any mistakes this time. Do what you must!" Veymo said coldly to the girl. Raya, who had had her eyes closed, opened them to reveal bright purple eyes. She smiled.
"Don't worry master, I won't let that cat escape my grasp."
The girl picked up what seemed to be an arsenal of different knives. Some short and some longer. She put two knives in her boots, two crossed on her back, two in her belt and one hanging in her skirt.
She put her red her in a ponytail and walked over to the dish. After all, this was what she had been trained for, almost all her life.
Ray got up to leave for his match. He had his blade in one hand and the launcher in the other. Before he left he kissed Mariah lightly on the lips, but it was a kiss of someone who wasn't sure of what could happen to him. Mariah shivered slightly wishing him good luck.
Ray stepped up to the dish, in front of him the red haired girl walked up. He smiled slightly as Jazzman counted down. The girl didn't smile back, she took out her blade, fastened it one the handle of one knife.
"Let it rip!" they both yelled. Driger soared into the dish as well as the red and yellow met it. Ray jumped quickly backwards as planned. He could understand what Chief had meant. That girl wouldn't be too afraid to kill.
"Avez, Fox Bite!" The girl said. The blade sped towards Driger and sent him backwards. Ray gritted his teeth. This wouldn't be too easy.
"Driger, Thunder Growl" he commanded. Driger roared as he emerged and started flashing in green lightning. The bit beast opened its mouth to roar, but as the attack was about to come, a red fox appeared and it knocked the attack backwards. Driger was taken aback, and Ray too was shocked.
"Avez, this is your chance! Fire twister!"
A big twister of burning red flames emerged from the blade and sped towards Ray and Driger. Driger shielded Ray, but received serious damage in it all.
"Driger, hang in there!" Ray said as a sharp pain struck his shoulder. To his astonishment a small knife had ripped his shirt and skin. Thankfully only ripped it, because he hadn't heard it. Raya took out a new knife to toss.
"Ray, forfeit the match!" his team said as they noticed what was happening out there. Mariah looked ready to run over to him, if Max wasn't holding her back. Ray sighed. He didn't know what to do.
"I forfeit!" he said in confusion.
"Are you sure?" Jazzman asked. Ray nodded, a drop of blood trickled down his shoulder down to the floor.
The Bladebreakers sighed in relief as Jazzman declared the Elementals victory. Ray stumbled down the platform and was immediately taken to hospital for his wounds. It was serious, but it needed to be sewn back. Mariah and Max followed him. The rest stayed to see the last match. All hopes seemed to be gone of winning this.
"Kai, are you ready buddy?" Tyson asked nervously. Kai stared at him. His fists were clenched in anger and he stared coldly at the other team and especially at that girl.
"Kai, it is up to you for a captain versus captain fight. I am sorry for it, but we need someone strong to fight that Anto Set. After all, I think you are the most experienced one for that."
Kai sighed. "Whatever!" he said.
Anto Set got up, and he completely ignored his team as he walked up to the dish. He only had eye for this phoenix and hate rose within him. After all, Hiwatari was a hated name in many regions in his valley, and what wouldn't be better then to send Hiwatari to hell?
Veymo kept quiet seeing that blood taste in his pupil. Indeed, he had succeeded his first step."
Kai walked up to the dish, a simple bowl this time. The only thing about it was that it was made entirely of glass. Kai looked down at it and then smiled. This would get easy.
He had no idea that Anto thought the same.
Both bladers launched, and the wind that came in the Elementals launch forced Kai backwards, ripping his clothes. But Kai had felt similar things before battling both Tyson and Brooklyn. A little wind didn't scare him.
"Dranzer, Firewheel Jealousy!" he commanded. The ring of fire erupted, melting the glass.
"Northern Winds!" Anto said cooling the glass. His blade jumped into the air. It landed in the centre of the dish, not aiming at Dranzer at all. The glass broke sending splinter up in the air. Anto had no thought of attacking the blade. He was thinking other things.
"Wail emerge!" he said as a blue dragon, not like Tyson's Dragoon but still, emerged. "Use Cyclone force!"
A large tornado grew talking the glass with it. The tornado was aimed for Kai, who was sent flying, Dranzer with him.
"AND THE ELEMENTALS WINS THIS ROUND AND THEREBY HAS WON THIS MATCH BY FOUR-ONE!" Jazzman cried out through the microphone. Most spectators cheered as the Bladebreakers stood around their captain making sure he was okay. Kai was fine; miraculous enough he hadn't been severely hurt.
The Bladebreakers all sighed and made their way back. Ray would come back to them later, but nothing seemed to be able to cheer them up. They had been beaten seriously.
The days went. The White Tigers lost to both the Majestics and then to Zeo's team. The Elementals completely crushed the Majestics later in the last match of the Second Part of the tour. Yet it all came as a surprise, as a letter came to them, explaining something none of them had even thought of.
Dear Bladebreakers
You will battle in a Semi-final that will take place in the Swedish capital. As two teams have the same score you will meet Team Zeo in two days, to decide the final.
Sincerely Camilla Borg
Tyson dropped the letter after he had read it to the others, who where just as confused as him. They were actually in the game? Unbelievable!
In another part of the hotel Zeo read the same letter. He smiled for himself. This would indeed be an interesting match.
