Normal POV

It was raining outside, and the sky was a dark and bleak blue colour, lighting up every time lightning shot out the sky, and the windows rattling because of the thunder echoing through the house. All the Bladebreakers were inside the Dojo, Max watching cartoons, Kenny working on his laptop, Rei cooking dinner, Hilary doing homework, Kai standing in a corner, watching everyone else, and Tyson had locked himself in his room some time ago, not knowing what to do because he wasn't allowed outside to practise blading.

"Hey guys, dinner's nearly ready," Rei shouted from the kitchen, "can someone please get Tyson."

"Sure, I will!" replied Max, who jumped up into the air and ran towards Tyson's room to tell him dinner's ready.

As Hilary began to set the table, Rei still cooking, Kenny saving his work, and Kai still in the corner, Max came running back, panting.

"Tyson isn't in his room."

"What?" Hilary said, looking bewildered at this statement, "Are you sure he isn't just hiding or something?"

"Tyson wouldn't hide when it's dinner," began Kenny, "He likes it too much."

Everyone ran towards Tyson's room, and opened the door, hoping that Tyson was still there, but all they saw was a messy bed with Beyblade magazine's on it, his drawers left open, and his window…open!

"He wouldn't," Rei muttered.

They all ran to the window to see Tyson, outside, with a raincoat on, practising blading, shouting orders to Dragoon while trying to concentrate during the storm. But when they were about to leave to get him, when Kai saw someone coming out the shadows towards the unexpecting Tyson. Kai jumped out the window, running quietly and quickly towards Tyson, but Tyson had just noticed someone approaching him from behind the cluster of trees. He recalled Dragoon, and began to ask who the person was, when they stopped in front of him and began to laugh menacingly. He began to slowly creep forward towards Tyson, but Tyson began to slowly retreat backwards, repeating his question over and over again.

Then, the hooded figure pulled out a beyblade, and challenge Tyson to a match.

"Tyson, no."

Tyson turned around to see Kai standing, looking towards the figure hold up his blade.

"Why, isn't it little Kai," began the hooded blader, "Have you come to show off some more of your so called blading. Wasn't it you that tried to get on the BEGA side for the 5 against 5 match, and completely mess up, being beaten by Brooklyn?"

"Yeh," Kai retorted, "So? I beat him later on, didn't I? More than I can say of you."

"Kai, do you know this person?" Tyson questioned, looking up t Kai with suspicious eyes.

Kai looked down, thought for a moment about what to say, and how to say it, and replied, "Yeh, I do, but from a long time ago," he began, "We were beginners in the Abbey at the time, but I was moved up a class because of my blading capability, and he was moved down one because of lack of. We never got along after that, even though we shared a dorm sometimes. His name is Peter."

Tyson looked at him as if he had grown an extra head or two, and then looked back at the boy.

"Wow, how touching you remember me," Peter mocked, looking straight at Kai, then to Tyson. "But I'm sorry; I'm not here for a reunion as such. I'm here to get Dragoon, and nothing is going to stop me in getting it."

"Unless I turn down your offer," replied Tyson.

Both of the other boys looked at Tyson as if he was crazy, but as Peter's gaze got darker and more threatening, Kai's became softer, but only a little, because he was proud that Tyson knew when to accept a battle, and when to decline one, no matter what he may be losing.

"What?" snarled Peter, "You can't decline this offer, Tyson. I was being nice last time, but now I'm demanding you to battle me, whether you want to or not."

"Actually," began Tyson, "I can, and I have. You'll just have to live with it."

And as Tyson was about to turn around and leave, Peter began to laugh menacing again, but this time, his eyes were glaring and maniac, nearly.

"Oh, Tyson, you will regret what you just said," he said, making Tyson and Kai stare at him as if he had lost it, which he might have done. "Get ready, Tyson, because whether you're ready or not, I'm gonna get Dragoon, and NOW!"

He then launched his blade right at Tyson, and if Kai didn't have quick reflexes, Tyson would not be conscious right now. Kai pushed himself and Tyson down on the floor just in time to dodge the blade.

As Tyson got up to his feet, helping Kai up as well, he shouted, "What the HELL are you trying to do? Kill us?"

"If that's the only way to get Dragoon, so be it."

So, Peter ordered his blade to attack again, but this time, Kai was ready, and launched Dranzer just in time to deflect the attack aimed at them.

"Well, well, well, I guess I'll be able to have some fun before my job, I guess," Peter said with a smirk growing on his face.

"I'm not going to let you win, Peter, no matter what."

After this, Kai and Peter began to battle each other, and at this point, the others had made it outside and were now watching the battle from behind Tyson, who was standing up, looking baffled from one to the other. Then, when he came back to Earth, he turned around and saw everyone else watching the battle, looking as clueless as he felt. But when he turned around, he saw that someone else was emerging from the shadows, who launched his blade at Dranzer and knocked it back even more, making it spin uncontrollably.

"Hey, Brian, leave this one to me," Peter yelled at the other boy, "I want to finish this big mouth off."

"And let you have all the fun, think again," Brian retorted, smiling an evil smile, that sent shivers up Tyson's spine.

"Now, let's have some more fun. Drogar!" shouted Peter.

"Kanzer!" yelled Brian.

And all at once, two bit beasts emerged from the blades. From Peter's blade came a monkey type creature, but was black and on its hands, feet and head were sharp daggers sticking up. And from Brian's came a bird like creature. It resembled a hawk, and had a beak made out of steel, and sharp, metallic claws.

"Dranzer!" shouted Kai, who already looked tired and badly injured.

"Aw, look, Peter," began Brian, "He's getting tired."

"Yeh," sniggered Peter, "How about we finish this off. Drogar! Dagger Slash!"

"Metallic Strike, Kanzer!"

Both bits came hurtling down from the sky, aiming for Dranzer, and Kai knew that Dranzer couldn't last that attack, and looked defeated, till he heard a faint shout from behind him, and then a flash of light came flying past him.

"DRAGOON! VICTORY TORNADO!"

And then a massive dust cloud surrounded them all, and when it began to clear, they saw two blades still spinning, one being Kai's, and the other's Tyson's.

"W-What?"

"Are you o.k. Kai?" Tyson asked Kai when Kai seemed to mutter out only one word.

"WHAT!" shouted Brian, "I can't believe he beat us!"

"Yeh," agreed a gob smacked Peter, "I don't think the boss is gonna like this- AH!"

"Who's your boss?" Rei asked, in a very low, threatening way, making his eyes mere slits, making Peter shout out in fright and shake uncontrollably.

"We can't tell you," said a smirking Brian, "Well, see ya around."

And with that, Brian threw down a smoke capsule, making it easier for both boys to escape, and when the smoke cleared, Rei was on the floor, Max ran over to make sure he was alright, Tyson was beside a now confused and half conscious Kai, and both Hilary and Kenny looked at each other, and went inside, to make sure that they weren't kidnapped.

"Kai?" asked a now nervous Tyson, "Are you alright?"

"Yeh," replied Kai, looking up into navy eyed, that were filled to the brink with worry, and when Kai awoke from his trance by Tyson's eyes, he looked away, with a faint blush creeping onto his face, but hidden in the shadow of the trees, but little did he know that both Max and Rei noticed this, and both looked at each other, having a small conversation about whether or not Kai might actually like Tyson, and, their conclusion was an unanimous yes. They both grinned when they looked back to see Tyson offering to help up Kai and Kai accepting, and when he was at his full height, just taller than Tyson, and he was about a few inches from Tyson, and was still holding onto his hand, and pulling it back, blushing slightly more, but, by the look of things, he didn't really see. Both Rei and Max knew he was still looking into his eyes, but when they both came back to reality when they heard Kenny cough behind them, explaining that the dinner was still cooking.

"Oh no!" Rei exclaimed, "My chicken!"

And both Max, Rei, and Kenny left, leaving behind a pair of dumbstruck teenage boys, who looked at each other one more time, till Kai said he was going inside.

"O.k." said Tyson, "I'm coming."

It had stopped raining a few minutes before hand, but everything and everyone was soaking wet, or at least, Kai and Tyson were because when Kai pushed him down, the wind ripped it off him, and Kai ran outside without one in the first place. But as Tyson looked back, he knew that wasn't the last of them, by far.

They'd be back. And soon.

Very soon…
