A/N: This is a bit AU, leading right from the beginning of the G-Revolution. Hitoshi/Hiro isn't the Shippu no Jin, he just appeared and Daichi is here as well… Heh… This takes place two or three years from the prologue, and things will get mixed up later. There is a lot of OOC-ness, so don't blame me if they're acting weird. Of course there is YAOI, so just a warning. Also, Takao has been turned into a girl. Don't worry, our little Ty-chan will turn back in the end!
Pairings: TyKa, MaRa, TaBy, HiKe and much more!
Disclaimers: Sadly… I don't own Beyblade or its characters. This is just a fic made by own fanfare and musing.
Summery: Takao sadly died, and became lost to the world. After three years, he's returned, but things have changed drastically. He struggles to save the world from an ancient force, faces many challenges, and is caught up in recollecting his past memories.

Chapter One: "Who Am I?"
"We'll always be friends, Takao."
"I can't believe it, you're the World Champion!"
"You're the greatest friend anyone could have!"
"Now that you're champion, everyone would want to battle against you."
"You're such a baka, Takao."
"You are lousy, and worthless. No one will ever love you, boy."
"I love you, Takao."
"Takao…"
"Takao!"
"TAKAO!"
Gasping for air, a pair of chocolate brown eyes widened into reality. Sitting up, and calming the racing heart, the surroundings became unfamiliar. Eyes fazed no longer recognizing anything or remembering the past. A hand reached up, and clutched a foreign object, hanging around the neck. It was a pendent, and it sent comforting waves that surrounded the shaking body. Presses it closer to the form. 'Who… Who am I?' The mind whispered.
A flash of light surged from the hand, releasing it to see the ornament glow blue. Then a glowing figure appeared before the frightened and confused person. It was a little boy, with messy light blue hair with darker streaks of blue. He smiled to the person, reaching out to touch the face. He cupped the sides of the pale face, and pulled it closer to hit. His stormy gray eyes were comforting, causing the chocolate pools to trance. Their foreheads touch, a pulsing warmth radiating from the gem on the boy's forehead. "You are back to this world, to fulfill your destiny. Don't be afraid, I will be here to help, guide and protect you, little one." The boy smiled. "Please remember who you are… you are my master. I am Dragoon…"
The pair of chocolate brown eyes widened, and flashed a stormy blue color. Suddenly it drooped down, causing the body to limp. The boy frowned sadly, and lifted the figure's head. He cradled it gentle. "I'm sorry I couldn't protect you back then, but I promise to save you now. You may not look like the same Takao I've known and served, but you are still who you are…" A pair of wings sprouted from his back, spreading largely shielding them.
Looking up at the dojo, a hand shielded the glaring sunrays. Behind the dark sunglasses, a brow raised while nearing the doors. Lifting a hand, there was a knock. The doors suddenly opened, and a tall brunette appeared. The girl had shoulder length hair, and big umber eyes. She wore a purple and black school uniform. She smiled widely. "Can I help you?"
The other person was a shorter female. She had long midnight blue hair up in a messy bun. Her eyes were hidden by the dark shades. She licked her pale pink lips. "My name is Ty, and I'm looking for Kinomiya Hitoshi? I um… kind of signed up for a tryout to join the team?"
The brunette smiled widely. "Well, come in Ty-san. My name is Hiromi." She led the girl inside the dojo. Ty, the blunette, raised a brow behind the fallen locks of hair. She stared at the dojo, still looking like a new structure. 'He's… still here…' Hiromi stopped in her tracks, showing the back yard of the dojo. There were three others there. One was older than the rest of them. He had a light shade of blue hair, pulled back in a loose ponytail. He wore a dark jacket even in the nice warm day. He was watching the two younger boys. One was really short, and looked younger than the three. He had spiky dark hair with red bangs. He wore a loose tank top and ripped shorts. The boy had a goofy grin, while laughing to himself. The other was a timid guy, who looked to be the same age as she. He had bushy light brown hair that covered his emerald green eyes. He wore matching black uniform, but his black blazer was off, tied around his waist and his purple tie hung loosely around is neck. "Hey you guys! It's another Beyblader trying out to be in the team." Hiromi called out.
The short tanned boy looked up grinning widely. "Really? Well bring on the challenge." He taunted.
The other boy sighed and shook his head. "Please, Daichi, don't be so cocky."
The young man smiled to the new guest. "You must be Ty?" The blunette looked up at the tall man, and nodded. "Well, I hope you are prepared. First, I am the team's coach, Kinomiya Hitoshi. This is our number one player, Daichi and the other member, Kyoujyu." He glanced at Hiromi. "She's the assistant and sometimes another Beyblader of the team."
The blunette nodded. Daichi narrowed his eyes at this Ty girl. She wore a weird style of clothing, with a black sleeveless duster, with a long tail trailing behind her. She had a black shirt, stopping below her mid-drift, and a short mini skirt, accessorized by three belts hanging from her hips. She had a pair of netted gloved, up to her upper arm with black gloves over her hands, cut off to show her slender fingers. She also had netted stockings, with a pair of black tight boots, stopping below her knees. To top it all over, her mid-night blue hair was put up in a messy bun, with her bangs a few strands falling, and a pair of dark sunglasses covering her eyes and masking the true identity of her face. Daichi crossed his arms, not really impressed with this girl. 'She looks good and all, but does she have the skills on the dish?' He smirked, and stomped his foot for attention. "Let me take a crack out of her."
Kyoujyu and Hiromi looked at him oddly, but the coach shrugged. "Sure."
Daichi's grin widened, taking out his Beyblade launcher. He set it up, ready to release the power of his Gaia Dragoon. The girl smoothly took out her launcher, causing an awing expression to the witnesses of the battle. She went into her stance, her lips pressed to a thin line. Hiromi stepped up towards the dish, acting as the referee of this Beyblading battle. She raised an arm, looking at the two Beybladers. "Ready! 3… 2… 1…"
"Go shoot!"
Ty tugged on her cord, and suddenly felt time suddenly gone slowly. She could see the slow motion move of her opponent, as the Beyblade was slowly making its way to the dish. Ty narrowed her eyes. When the time went back on its own pace, there was a collision of the Beyblades in the air, not yet on the dish. Daichi widened his eyes as he saw the impact caused his Beyblade out, and his opponent's into the dish. Everyone's eyes were shocked at this, but not the coach. Ty felt her lips twitching into a smile. She looked up at Daichi's gaping mouth. "What? No way… what happened! That's cheating!" He outraged.
"Wow, that's amazing, you were accurate on your calculations." Kyoujyu noted. Ty recalled her Beyblade back into her hand. She looked down at her pale blue Beyblade with silver linings.
She looked up at the team. "So, I made the team?" She asked persistently.
Hitoshi grunted. "I'm not that impressed. You may have accurate calculations to send a Beyblade out, without going through a whole experience of a battle." Hitoshi walked up to the dish and suavely took out his launcher and Beyblade. "Let's see how your skills are, Ty-san."
The girl shrugged at this, and went into her stance. Hiromi smiled and looked at each Beyblader. She rose up a hand. "Ready! 3… 2… 1…"
"Go shoot!"
Both Beyblades landed into the dish, and started to circulate around the dish. Hitoshi smirked, and looked at Kyoujyu and Daichi. "You two launch your Beyblades." The two younger boys looked at him in shock. The coach gave them a look, and they didn't dare to disobey. They went into their stance, and hesitantly let out their Beyblades.
Ty blinked her eyes, and looked up at the coach in confusion. Her lip started to twitch into a frown. "You're supposed to be a coach. You're playing unfairly!" She accusingly points at the coach.
Hitoshi smirked, and crossed his arms. "That's true… but this is our try-out session. Anything goes in a Tournament, Ty-san. You need to be prepared for anything. If you want to be in my team, then I want to see how well you 'play'." Ty's eyes started to twitch in anger. She gritted her teeth, and clenched her fists. "You intrigue me much, Ty-san. So show me if you are world-class material." He raised an arm, as a signal. "Formation A." He commanded.
Hiromi gasped, and glanced at the shaking blunette. She wasn't frightened about this, but angered. "Takao-kun, you must calm down and concentrate!" Ty's eyes flashed blue from behind her shades, and her hand went up to clutched the hidden ornament under her shirt.
The three Beyblades scattered into different directions, leaving the pale blue one in confusion on whom to chase. Then all of a sudden, there were quick clashes, as the light Beyblade was taking on attacks from all sides, like a ball being tossed around. Ty tightly clutched the object in her hand. 'I have to shake them off some how, and go into offence. But there is three of them, and only one of me. This will be a bit difficult, but I think I can pull it off in one attack…' Her eyes started to roam around the dish. Then time froze, and her eyes widened. 'There!'
Ty glowed in a blue aura, and her eyes started to shine blue. "Let's go! Gale Blast!" She screamed out.
Daichi narrowed his eyes, and responded to the up coming attack. "No way, sister! Great Cutter!"
Kyoujyu raised his arm into the air. "Hyper Blast!"
The two Beyblades went in front of Hitoshi's. Ty released a powerful gust of wind that circulated around her. Hiromi held back her hair from whipping her face. Daichi and Kyoujyu struggled to stay in place. Hitoshi just stood there, with his arms crossed, and eyes intent. The light blue Beyblade stopped on its place, then suddenly spun the other way around. Daichi and Kyoujyu gasped in shock. Soon the strong winds picked up, and started to form a powerful tornado attack around the blue Beyblade. Daichi and Kyoujyu's attacks were nullified, and their Beyblades were being sucked into Ty's tornado attack. There was the sound of metal clashing, and the two were sent out of the dish. The tornado died down, and Ty was smirking widely. Hitoshi saw this, and widened his eyes. "Now!"
Ty gasped, seeing as her Beyblade was a bit powerless after her strong attack. The green Beyblade went on a head on assault towards the pale blue one. "Dragoon!" She yelled out in defense. The green Beyblade was inching towards hers, and she saw time slow down again. Her eyes flashed blue, and the Beyblade dodged Hitoshi's attack. This caused everyone, even the coach himself, in shock. Caught off guard, Ty took this chance, and attacked the green Beyblade. Metal grinned, and it was sent out of the dish. It was over, and Ty's Beyblade was the last one standing.
Joy bubbled in the blunette. She received her Beyblade, and started to jump happily. "Oh my gosh! That was so cool! I won!" she laughed out loudly with her head to the sky. Snapped out of their stupor they looked at this strong Beyblader. She started to giggle uncontrollably. "We did it Dragoon! Hee. Hee. I didn't think I could have done it, but I did!" She squealed boasting on to herself. "Yay, Dragoon!"
"Wait a minute." The blunette froze from her self-congratulations. She looked at the coach, with a pale expression. "Dragoon…?" He whispered in a shaky tone. "Who… who are you?"
Ty widened her eyes in realization. 'Uh-oh!' She slowly stood up straight staring at their speechless expressions. Ty panicked. / Eek! Dragoon, you have to help me out here! / She bit her lip, fidgeting under their uncomfortable gazes.
Brows creased, and mouth parting. Opening and closing, but no words spoke out. Her head was turning, and beads of cold sweat trailed from her face. Tears were forming from the corner of her eyes. A comforting hand reached out and touched Ty's forehead. Her face relaxed, and she continued to sleep soundly.
Hiromi sighed, and smiled softly. She woke up from the smaller girl's cries, and she felt the need to help the stressed girl. It was the middle of the night, and Hiromi recalled clearly of the moments that past this afternoon. Tears fell from her umber eyes, as she watched the peaceful sleeping girl. She formed a teary smile, and choked back a sob. "I can't believe it's you, Takao. This is still so hard to believe, but I can see it. I can see you." She bent down her face, laying her head onto the girl's pillow. She watched as the girl's lips move as she breathed. "You're back. You don't know how much it hurt all the people around you, Takao. So much has changed since you were gone for three years…" She closed her eyes, and let her tears fall. "I'm glad you're back." She smiled.
Flashback They were all gathered inside the dojo, sitting on the wooden floor. 'Ty' sat uncomfortably in front of them, with her head bowed. Slowly, she lifts her head, and looks at them with chocolate brown eyes. Her shades were off, and in her shaking hand. "I…I don't know how to explain this to you guys… but honestly… I don't remember my past. There are faint images, and I see you guys there, but I can't put names to their faces." She said in a whisper. "I try to remember, but I can't, because all I get is this wrenching pain." She touched her chest, feeling the object behind her shirt.
"Please tell me…" Hitoshi looked up at her. "Where is it that you got that Bitbeast, Dragoon?"
Ty shook her head. "I don't know. It's like I suddenly woke up from nothingness, and Dragoon was there."
"C-could you be… Takao?" Kyoujyu asked shakily.
The girl bowed her head. "I…Dragoon keeps on calling me that. I'm not sure if I am." She said sadly. There was suddenly a flash of light from under her shirt, and a glowing form appeared in front of them. It was a little boy, around six years of age. He wore unusual attire, robes of many shades of blue, to match his hair. It brought out his stormy gray eyes. A crest was on his forehead, with a bright blue gem on the center. He had transparent blue wings, behind him, that like a fairytale dragon's wings. He was barefoot, and had razor claws with pointy ears.
They were all in awe at this boy that floated a few inches from the floor. The glowing was gone, but he still had a majestic aura around him. "W-who is that?" Daichi spoke out.
The boy smiled warmly at them. "Don't fright." He said in a silky young tone, but a little deep than how a tiny boy would speak. "I am know as the Guardian of Storm, Dragoon." They all gasped. The boy chuckled. "This is just my human form. My real form is the spirit you see when I fight during a Beybattle."
"So then… all bit beasts can do this, come out in their human forms?" Kyoujyu asked, very interest in this supernatural experience. Heck, nothing was ever normal to them, anyways, right?
The boy lifted his legs, like he was sitting on an invisible chair. He leaned forward, with his elbow leaning on his knees, and his hand holding up his chin. "Only if their master is very powerful, and that their powers are merged with them." They all looked at Ty. The boy smiled, and floated to be beside Ty. "Takao is very powerful, that is why he had returned."
"So, Takao was really dead this whole two years." Hitoshi stated.
Dragoon furrowed his brows. "Not really…"
"So what do you mean then?"
The little boy placed a finger on his chin. "You see… all I was able to do was save Takao's spirit, his soul. I took him to my world, and there he stayed. There was war in our world, and Takao seemed to be the only one who could stop it. When the wars were over, it turned out the Dark Seal here was opened, and I had to return Takao here, because he and the other chosen are the only ones who could close it. Seeing as his old body was buried, I had to get him a different body."
"You turned Takao into a girl?" Asked Daichi.
The boy laughed lightly. "Dizzara said she would take care of it…" He shook his head at the remembrance.
"Dizzy?" Kyoujyu blinked his eyes and clutched on to his laptop.
Dragoon nodded. "You see…in our world we live in our true forms, you know that spirits within your bit on a Beyblade. The bit beasts, as you call them, are really living in our own world, but are able to come to yours, through those bits and we send our spirits out. In order for us to materialize into the real world as a life form, we have to take in human forms, like I am now." He smiled at them. "Me and the other three protectors of the Dark Seal are the only ones who are able to appear in our true forms here, because we were sent here to prevent anyone from opening it."
Hiromi furrowed her brows in worry. "The Dark Seal?"
Dragoon's expression turned into a serious frown. "The ancient evil that was sealed by our Light millions of years ago. I, myself and three others were protectors of the seal. Our powers were passed down through the years, to our descendant of our powers. Those chosen to have our powers, we serve and protect them. Because Takao died and there was no other successor to his powers…"
"The Seal was weakened and who ever found the Seal opened it." Finished Hitoshi. Dragoon nodded. The three other clueless teens glanced from their coach to the bit beast. "The Holy Four…I've heard of the legends on my travels, and from my grandfather."
"Who are the Holy Four?" Asked Kyoujyu.
Dragoon smiled at them. "I think you know them pretty well. The Guardians of Fire, Water and Earth." He pointed out.
"Could it be…Dranzer, Drigger and Draciel?" Hiromi suddenly spoke.
The little boy's smile widened, and he nodded. Suddenly there was a moan of pain, and they all looked at the silent blunette. She was clutching on to her head in pain. She gritted her teeth. She furrowed her brows, and sweat started to glisten. Dragoon was alert of her pain, and neared her. "Takao-sama…Are you okay?"
End Flashback
Hiromi brushed away a few strands from the girl's pale face. 'Dragoon says we need all the help we can get to prevent the coming of this darkness. If it is true… then Takao would have to risk her life again.' She frowned. 'She's scared and oblivious to her surroundings. She heaves a lot of pain trying to remember her past. I wish there is some way to help her.' She started to hum softly, as she crawled up to her own sleeping bag.
+She was running down a dark corridor, panting heavily. She didn't know where she was really running to, but she kept on going. She stopped in her tracks as she saw a boy standing in the hallway, peeking through a slightly opened door. She saw the horror expression from the boy's widened stormy blue eyes. She narrowed her eyes, and slowly walked up to the boy. He didn't move, but stayed rooted to the floor, frozen. Curious, she slightly pushed the door open, and then voices were flashing through her mind.
-"Takao… I love you. If you don't return my feelings, I understand, but I'll wait for you forever. I promise."
Her eyes widened, with the same expression this boy in front of her had.
-"I want to make you happy… it's the only thing I strive for in life… to make those around me smile."
She backed away and shook her head, mimicking the same actions the boy was, like she was a shadow.
-"You are the only one I need, Takao. No one else can take away what I feel…"
Her back hit against the wall, and she watched as the boy calmly walks down the hallway.
-"I promise I'll never leave. All I want is to take away your pain. I'll be your light, and you can help me face my darkness…"
Two figures stepped out from the room, and she narrows her eyes to clearly see them. Their faces were clouded, and she wanted so badly to see them. They were both tall guys, one slightly taller than the other. The tallest one went running after the boy that left a few minutes ago. The other, she saw guilt and anger, as he clenched his fists. She saw him move his lips, but she didn't hear anything from him.
-"All I want from you is…"
She blinked her eyes and suddenly found herself in a different surrounding. It was raining hard, and the pouring clouds darkened the skies. She turns her head and sees the boy running towards her direction. Closely behind was the other guy. She could see the guy calling out for the boy. The boy was ignorant to everything, shaking his head, drowning the sounds. He stopped in front of her. She suddenly felt the over bearing pain the boy carried. Suddenly she looked up to see lights of a coming car. She widened her eyes, and reached out to warn the boy, but her hand went though him.
-"I want your love."
The boy looked up with fear in his widened eyes. She yelled out, trying to save this boy.
-"I… I love… I love him… Yes, I do love him very much…"
The tall guy stopped with horror and yelled out. "TAKAO!"
Her eyes widened and she hears the screeching of the car. She even hears the impact of a horrid sound of the body hitting the car, and being thrown to the floor. She hears the rain pouring loudly all around, and more commotion surrounding her. She closes her eyes. 'Who am I?'
-"I love you, and only you, Takao."
'Takao… Am… Am I Takao? Then who… who is it am I suppose to remember? Who is it that says these things to me? To Takao?'
-"I love you too." A smile. "I love you too, Kai…"+
Ty sat up suddenly, gasping for air. She looked around her surroundings and saw that morning was rising. The other occupants in the room were still sound asleep. She weakly stood up from her bed on the floor, and stumbled out of the dojo. Out in the fresh air, she breaths heavily, still reminiscing on her dreams. The sun was slowly rising, painting the dark sky with its coming rays. Ty leaned against the closed doors and slid down to the floor, crying. She buried her face in her hands. She cried of the forgotten past. She cried of the pain this Takao went through. She cried for this guy… Kai.
To Be Continued…
((Dun, dun, dun, dun! Whoa. This is too much tense on my part. I can't believe I've written so much of this drama stuff. . Well anyways, please do review. Please be easy on me. I'm kind of new to writing Beyblade. Oh don't worry… I'll spoil it for you that Kai and Takao will get back together. How Takao died, you'll just have to find out. Till next time!))
