29: A Real BeyBLADE
Disclaimer: Ok, so I said I would get more snide comments to put here. (Points at Disclaimer). But I haven't and I can't think of any more. But you know the drill right. (Crowd: Emma aka Queen Kat…(Kat looks peeved and starts tapping her foot in impatience. 'I'm Queen Kat'.) (Crowd: (looks scared) Shadow Samurai of the Darkness doesn't own Beyblade. (Kat: Good Peeps.)) See, you know it already. .
Kai: Why did you put 'BeyBLADE' for the title Em'? Its just Beyblade.
Emma: You'll find out.
Kat: Hang on, 'BeyBLADE', your emphasizing 'Blade' and that means something that cuts and slices.
Emma: Yep.
Kat: I still don't get it.
Emma and Kai: You wouldn't.
Emma: Now Kai, have you done my homework yet?
Kai: I said I wouldn't, even after you threatened me, so what do you think?
Emma: I think you haven't done it.
Kai: No I didn't.
Kat: (Looking at some sheets of paper). Then why is it done?
Emma: (Looks confused). Ok, I know I count in my sleep, and maybe sleep walk, and raid the fridge now and then, watch T.V in the night but am still asleep, drawn on my brothers face and then…
Kat and Kai: Shut up.
Emma: (Grin). Well, anyway. I know for a fact that I don't do my own homework in my sleep.
Kat: Then why is it done?
Kai: (Smirk). I said I wouldn't do it, but it doesn't mean I couldn't get someone else too.
Kat: And who would that be.
Emma: (Thinking). Let me guess, you forced Tyson to do it?
Kai: (Nod). He deserved it, he ate everything.
Emma: Great.
Kai: What, your homework's done isn't it?
Kat: Tyson did it!
Kai: And?
Emma: Then it's going to be wrong isn't it.
Kai: (Groan). Good point. (Grab paper and walk off). I guess I'm doing it then.
Emma: I didn't even ask. Something has to be up.
Kai: (Sniggers). And she thought I would get the answers right for her. Loser.
Kai Phoenica: Glad you like again and I'm glad I've got it right. Thanks for reviewing.
Inuyasha loves chi-chi demon: glad u like. Thanks for the review, (when you get this far)
''Why are you here?''
''Why are you so hostile to your own grandfather?''
''You call yourself a grandfather? You'll be saying that your starting to collect pink fully toy rabbit collection next.''
''You won't be talking to me like that when I'm done with you, but this time, you won't be getting away.'' He took a step closer to Kai still sitting on the floor, wrists and ankles bound.
''Some contest this is. You haven't even given me a chance to hit back.'' Kai spat though still was fearful of his Grandfather as he reached inside his robe for something.
''Who said I would? You know I don't play fair Kai, do you really expect me to start now.'' Kai just growled and tried to struggle to his feet.
''Then answer me my questions.'' He said reaching his feet to stand upright again. Now he was just smaller than his Grandfather and seemed more imposing.
''Very well Kai. I'll answer what I seem fit.'' Voltaire said leaving whatever was inside his coat alone again.
''How are you here?''
''Didn't you know? The Demolition boys were free while I was in jail. They bailed me out. It was simple. You should have been the one signing my papers Grandson, if only you had stayed with me and my team, you would have been perfection. Of course, that window is still open.''
''And I'll be closing it.'' Kai spat. ''So then, since you're free, for the little time that I let you anyway, why are you here?'' Voltaire simply smirked.
''I have unfinished business with you, Grandson, and then with a little brown and blue haired girl you call Kat Triagon.''
Kat got no answer, well, no spoken answer, only a pair of smirks that quickly spread onto the five other live people in the room.
''What are you doing to him?'' Kat roared. Her pain had long been forgotten; she had brought Kai and would leave with him as well, and NOT in pieces.
''Us, no, we aren't doing anything to him.'' Mecca said smirking at the young woman.
''Maybe you should ask one of our new associates.'' Emica said, she would never say to Kat that these kids and their two leaders were her new masters. She would never live it down in the five minutes Kat let her live through afterwards. Kat turned her glare towards the Demolition Boys.
''I don't know who you are, or what you're here for but I will get my answers.'' She said sternly. ''Why do you want Kai?''
''Because, child, he was once part of this team.'' Boris said. Kat paled. Kai used to be part of the people now trying to hurt/kill him and kill her. She just glared at them but they seemed to be telling the truth.
''It's not true.'' She muttered.
''You might find that it is.'' Tala said his eyes were suddenly pieced by black orbs of obis.
''So then, since Kai used to be part of your team, I'm guessing you want revenge of some sort.'' They smirked, her thoughts were confirmed. ''So then, what do you want with me?''
''Nothing to do with you child.'' Boris said. ''Only your bit-beast, Whisper I think he name was.'' There was a deafening neigh as suddenly a silver streak came from Tala's hand. Kat gasped.
''No…Whisper…no.''
''So, who are you again?''
''Jay, my name is Jay.'' Jay all but practically growled.
''And where are we going?''
''To find you friends and hopefully save them from death.'' He said in the same tone.
''When are we gonna get there?''
''I will be there in little over half an hour, you though…'' He turned to Tyson and Max in the seats behind him. ''MAY NEVER GET THERE, SO SHUT THE HELL UP BEFORE I HAPPEN TO GET REALLY MAD.'' The pair were silenced as Jay turned back to the road in the 4X4 front seat.
''There always like that, just ignore them.'' Ray said from the passenger seat. Jay nodded.
''You seem to be the only sane one…'' He glanced back at Kenny. ''That actually speaks around here.''
''I'll take that as a compliment.'' Ray said looking ahead of him. ''I hate to ask but…what exactly is going to happen? You're taking us into a war zone you know. The Bladebreakers are Beybladers not Gunmen.''
''And that's why you're here. You know about Kat's Beyblade thingy don't you, that's why you're here, I want to know, who and why this person would take it from her.'' He said. ''So I can rip their throats out.'' He muttered. Ray nodded.
''I have a feeling it might be our team captain, Kai's, Grandfather. He does stuff like this, world domination through blading I think, he's crazy. He's meant to be in jail but escaped a few months back now. He must be after Kat's blade for it's power.''
''What power?''
''Haven't you even seen it?'' Tyson immediately yelled. Jay's grip on the steering wheel visibly tightened and his growling increased.
''Tyson I'd be quiet if I were you?'' Ray warned.
''Why?''
''Because…''
''Because I am the one driving this thing and also the one with enough ammo to blow up half of Japan in my power. Understand?'' Jay threatened. Everyone nodded and abruptly fell back into silence.
''Master, you can go now, and take those beginners with you. I have no need for help.'' Tala said. Boris smirked and nodded and walked to the door with the rest of the Demolition boys following although looking slightly peeved. They didn't get their fun but a quick glance from their team leader told them to act normal and do as he said.
''You must come with us.'' Boris said to Emica. She huffed.
''And you are going to make me obey to that how…?'' She smirked. Boris growled.
''You will come with me. We are simply going to watch Kat suffer for a while. Surely you will want to watch her pay for her insolence?'' He said using Emica's own joy against her. It would have been better for her to be making Kat suffer, it wasn't but it was good enough. She smirked and nodded.
''Mecca, do as the man says, he has a...rather persuasive offer.'' Mecca just looked at her.
''And I thought you were meant to only follow Silva.'' He smirked. ''If your agreeing to this then it has to be good. Go ahead specks, lead the way.'' He smirked at Boris who just glared back and led the way to the lookout box above the new 'stadium'. Mecca smirked at Emica and the pair followed.
''What are you planning, Emica?'' The woman smirked.
''Nothing, but if they annoy me…'' Mecca's smirk couldn't get any bigger.
Kat didn't notice the group leave. She only saw Tala's icy blue eyes pierce her own eyes before a silver flash was emitted and her cheek suddenly streamed with red.
''Wha…?''
''Its blood, Kat. You should know, you're in the blood business aren't you. It must be a different experience for you though. A simple Beyblader is now ruling over the blade and bullet.'' Tala said smirking. Kat reached up to her cheek and then looked at the blood on her hand. She glanced across at Tala to see him behind the red head.
''How?''
''I'm very persuasive. And why you are cut, well, let's just say I've upgraded your blade into a real BeyBLADE. (there's the title ) Now it can slice through flesh like a metal dagger but also destroy any other Beyblade like it used to with even more ease.'' Tala smirked.
But Kat didn't hear half of his explanation. She had fazed out. She was quicker thinking than Tala thought she was. He had already figured out that they had attached metal knife blades to her Beyblade. She had felt the cold metal scar her cheek as it cut. The Blade now spun at Tala's feet but she didn't care. She looked behind him again.
''Whisper.'' She murmured. Tala smirked.
''No, not Whisper. This is a different Bit-beast to yours. Well, he is the same beast but is different in power. It is my power now.'' Sensing that his master and team-mates as well as the beginners had reached their look out point above his head in a glass commentator's box like thing attached to the warehouse wall. Tala decided to get the fun started.
''This is no long Whisper the Unicorn of the winds. This is Shadow Whisper. Shadow Whisper of the Darkness.'' Tala said with pride. ''He is far better than any other bit-beast, maybe even than Black Dranzer, he is superior and he is mine.'' He smirked at Kat's shaken face. ''So now Shadow Whisper, attack your former pathetic master and teach her why I am greater than she could ever be.'' Tala yelled pointing at Kat. She felt the wind suddenly pick up as a huge gust of black wind hit her dead on in the stomach.
Where once was white is now black,
Belongs to the shadows now,
Black filled eyes of hate and anger,
Where only evil thoughts prowl.
He is no longer yours,
Black amour, eyes and tail of flame,
The darkness is the one that owns him now,
Not yours now and never the same.
Hooves of studded iron steel,
Clash against pale skin,
Where was once perfect unscarred flesh,
Blood does now cling.
Kat rose from the ground again. She couldn't take it anymore. Her arms were punctured from the beast's deep studs on his horseshoes. Her face cut from his black horn. Legs buckling under her own weight in pain. Her eyes wary of his black evil depths. Her ears deafened by his roaring challenges and mockery. Her voice hoarse from calling out for help…None came…None would.
She looked at her former friend. He was now truly the Bit-beast with no weakness. His eyes were still jet-black but no longer looked like they held any emotion. His mane, legs and tail were black flames of energy. His armour a glistening and shiny black. His body was still covered in white fur but it looked static and angry even with being just fur. He even seemed to have a black aura of energy bursting from his feet and spurting around him like a shield that she saw was why she felt heat every time he attacked her. It crackled with electricity as well as cut like grass and burned like fire.
''I think that is enough for now Shadow.'' Tala said and the Unicorn snorted at Kat before disappearing back into his blade that abruptly stopped spinning. Tala picked it up in his hand although it should have been around 100 degrees but it didn't hurt him. Kat just moaned in agreement and fell to the ground in exhaustion. She didn't care about looking weak. Right now she was. She lay on her side and steadied her breathing.
''Pathetic.'' Tala yelled. ''Get up and fight.'' She heard the hum of her former Beyblade spin back into life but she didn't care. She saw silver flick in the corner of her eyes and she just clenched her eyes shut as it pieced her leg leaving a deep cut. This time though, she couldn't contain her pain, she yelled out into the night…
''I have seen enough of her pitifulness. I will go see how Master Voltaire fares with the traitor. Boys.'' Boris said as he left with the Demolition Boys following on his command.
''If I knew Beyblades did that much damage and so quickly before, I would have grabbed one.'' Mecca said in amazement.
''It's better to deal it out yourself.'' Emica said as she watched Kat get attacked again, a cruel smirk forming on her lips. Mecca noticed this but ignored it. He couldn't help but feel a bit sorry for the girl. He would have given her a Bandit Honour at least but now she was getting beaten. He sighed slightly. It wasn't his decision to make though, nor any of the Black Bandits for that matter. It was all in the hands of Voltaire. He glanced subconsciously at the door which the Demolition boys had just left through. Something wasn't quiet right, he could sense it, something was going to happen. Something important.
Kai was little better off than Kat. His eyes were swollen and his limbs and torso cut. His clothes in tatters. His black leather Thunderbirds coat torn and bloodied. Jay wasn't going to like the sight of it for sure. Voltaire had pulled a knife out of his coat a few minutes earlier and he could do little more than take the brutal attacks of his cruel evil-minded Grandfather. He fell to the floor in pain and his Grandfather just smirked.
''Given up already Kai? I've never known you to be so weak.'' He smirked. Kai just growled but then sighed in defeat. He was too tired to even try and fight back. He was in too much pain to do anything but submit.
''Now, hand over Dranzer and maybe I'll ease off.'' Voltaire said outstretching his hand towards his fallen Grandson.
''Only after you get rid of these binds.'' Kai said gruffly. Voltaire's eyes brightened and he smirked and cruel and evil smirk before he lent towards Kai and undid the ropes that held Kai's hands and ankles from moving. (I know he wouldn't do that but hell, I'm writing this thing and I need Kai freed). The teen smirked. And he thought his Grandfather wasn't as stupid as that. He sniggered as he kicked Voltaire in the face making him stumble back against the wall and let go of the Knife. Kai's hand quickly become it's new home.
''Your old age has made your mind weak, Voltaire.'' He smirked as he stood up on unstable legs. His Grandfather growled at him as his shook the blood from his face.
''Don't think you can get away from me Kai.'' He growled. Kai smirked.
''I don't think, I know.''
(What's going to become of Kat? Will the Bladebreakers make it in time? Will Kai get his revenge like Kat did? Find out next chap).
