Brotherhood of the Bladers- Chapter Three-

"So, how long until they get here?" Tyson whined impatiently.

"At least another 5 minutes." Ray responded for the hundredth time.

Tyson groaned in annoyance. He was starting to get more than edgy by now. According to Kai, the entire team would be arriving rather than just the Blitzkrieg Boys. To Tyson's relief, someone knocks on the door. "I'll get it!" Standing there is the original team- Tala, Spencer, Bryan, and Kai, but with them are two new members. Two girl members. Of the two, one had chestnut brown hair pulled back into a ponytail that came down to her mid-back. Her eyes were a blazing green color and she looked about 17 or so. The other had a waist-length, dark brown ponytail similar to Ray's, but her hair was bound in black fabric. Her eyes were a lifeless gray color, but there was an icy intensity to them that made her eyes look alive. She wore a gray hooded sweater that had claw mark designs imprinted in red on it.

The team walked in with only a word or two from Kai. Taylia noticed one particular boy looking at her, the one with the amber eyes and raven hair in a ponytail like hers, but his came down to his ankles. The brown-haired girl seemed to notice Taylia's expression and harshly elbowed Tyson.

"Ow! What was that for!"

"You might wanna introduce the new girls to the team, dolt."

"Oh."

Tyson introduced the group as Max, Ray, Kenny, Hilary, Daichi, and Dizzi, which intrigued Saiyana. She gave them a cute half-grin.

"Hey guys, I'm Saiyana."

"Taylia." Taylia muttered monotonously.

"Uh, Tai here isn't exactly a social person." Tala explained to the team.

Without another word, Taylia walked outside with her hands in her pockets.

"What's her problem?" Tyson snorted and looked to Tala for an answer.

"You don't wanna know."

While the groups got reacquainted, Kai watched from the far wall. Max was flirting with an uninterested Saiyana. If we weren't friends, I swear he would be dead. Wait, what am I saying? Am I jealous? Snap out of it Kai. "Kai? Anybody home?" Saiyana waved her hand in front of Kai's face. Kai snapped out of his trance-like stare. "Huh?"

"You zoned out again."

"Oh, sorry."

The team looked shocked.

"Did I just hear Kai apologize?" Tyson gawked disbelievingly.

Kai shot him a trademark SHUT-UP-OR-YOU-DIE look. Tyson shut his mouth.

Outside, Taylia was leaning against a tree, absentmindedly tossing her blade up and down in one hand. She wasn't even looking at it, and yet she could toss her blade as high as she wanted without missing it. A mauve flash suddenly streaked by her face, and Taylia's lightning-speed reflexes made her hand shoot out and effortlessly catch it. It turned out to be Bryan's Falborg. "I was awake you know." She growled dryly as she threw it back to the falcon's wielder.

"I know. Just seeing if you were on guard."

"I'm always on guard, you know that."

Bryan shrugged as the rest of the teams came out. The red-head, Daichi, ran up to Tala with his blade and launcher.

"I challenge you to a Beybattle!"

Tala smirked and folded his arms.

"You've seen me battle before, ask someone else." He responded coolly with his light accent. Taylia sighed in annoyance.

"Hey Tai, you wanna show this guy how a dragon fights?" Tala called over to the quiet dragon. She lifted her head enough to show her shadowed eyes.

"Whatever."

"You're going down!"

"Don't be so sure, Taylia's bit beast really packs a punch." Saiyana responded as the dragon loaded her blade into the black launcher and walked up to the dish. "3, 2, 1, LET IT RIP!"

"Strata Dragoon, Great Cutter attack!"

"Dralyx, defend." Taylia said, her tone remaining completely calm.

Daichi's earth dragon unleashed its attack, but because of Taylia's focus, the attack ricocheted right off her fire-colored blade. "Dralyx, emerge and show them a real dragon!" The center of Taylia's blade started to glow, then a red light shot up into the sky as it took the shape of a Fire dragon. The others stared at it in awe, Dralyx was HUGE. The thing that made her blade so powerful was that her dragon's attacks and defenses were all based on the natural element of dragons, Fire.

Dralyx towered over Strata Dragoon, the Fire dragon being colored in red, black, gray and white scales, each one harder than steel. In the center of its forehead was the kanji symbol of fire. "Dralyx, torch that dragon with your Double Helix Firestorm!" Dralyx threw its head back and roared as it was surrounded by an aura of fire. The mighty fire dragon threw its head forth again, spitting out a column of flames, surrounded by a double helix trail of embers. The attack hits with such force that Strata Dragoon collapses back into its blade, which has ceased to spin in the demolished blade. Except for Tala and Kai, everyone in the yard is staring awestruck and dumbfounded at the result and at the dragon before them, shining in all its glory. Taylia looked to Tala and smirked. "You really shouldn't have told him to do that."

Just as Kenny puts the finishing touches on the readers that would determine Taylia's power ratio, his jaw dropped. "Guys, you are NOT going to believe this..." He turned his laptop around for all to see. "Taylia's power levels are off the scale! I didn't even know it was possible, and in that battle you barely even tried!" He gapes at Taylia. "Any chance we could see you at full power?" Taylia closed her eyes and concentrated. The levels (numbers) on Dizzi's monitor started to slowly rise, they started to pick up speed, and then they were shooting up at such an alarming rate that Taylia opened her eyes again and the numbers paused where she'd stopped, not even up to half power. Dizzi: "Whoa, who is that that did that? These stats are way beyond superhuman... I've concluded that the only possible way to beat her at even half power would be to stack everyone's stats on top of each other's and even then it might only end up in less than a stalemate!"

Taylia smirked, and so did her teammates. They all knew as well as she did that Dralyx was capable of massive releases of energy, and that Taylia consistently meditated, strengthening her bond with Dralyx. "By the way..." Taylia stated to the others, "Dralyx is only his nickname. His full name is Dralyxaedra."

Drachenfire: Ok, that's 'Brotherhood of the Bladers' Part 3. PLEASE R&R! BTW Dralyx's full name is pronounced drahl-ix-zay-druh, and voila, Dralyxaedra.
