Perfect Connection
I own no Beyblade
First of all, I want to thank all my reviewers for all their support. And one more thing I would like to add:
Dixon Oriole: Thanks so much for the review, and I'm thinking about what you said. I want to answer all your questions, but they tie into the plot too much and would give most of it away. So… you're gonna have to wait for me to finally finish this story XD
Secondly, I'm sorry; I've been on a story craze and haven't been working on this story so very much! Please forgive me! I'll try to update a few more chapters for you reading pleasure, but I can't guarantee what length they'll be, I kinda go all over. Please try to put up with me, and I hope I haven't angered you too much!
Enjoy if possible!
I'm sorry if I confused people about Kai 'changing' into Garland. What happens is (this is really confusing) Kai, using his thoughts, changes his molecular structure into one that is identical of the person he is 'morphing' into. Though, if you noticed, his voice didn't change because he wasn't completely Garland. Please excuse me if this makes no sense. I know it sounds like he's 'just morphing' but it's not like that, I swear… gods I explode my brain every time I try to explain this XD (love that face)
Chapter 6: Short, Sweet Bliss
With a sigh of pleasure, Kai collapsed in a bundle on the straw. He curled up in a tight ball, and soon the sound of peaceful breathing filled the cavern below BEGA.

Max shifted from foot to foot nervously as they waited at the airport for the taxi to pick them up. Instead, a big, green van pulled up in front of them, startling the two blondes. He looked to his mom confusedly, but then the driver's side door closed with a slam and Harold Tate came running around the vehicle.
"Max! Judy! So nice to see you two again!" he cried, wrapping them both in a bear hug.
Max smiled, Mom and Dad have been getting along so well recently. It's soooo cool!
Max waited, as patiently as he could, while his parents talked for a few minutes. The three of them were standing under an overhang, sheltered from the rain. People of all sorts went past, and he was tempted to ask two girls who walked past him, both with Canadian flags on their backpacks, how warm their igloos were. Now, Max was smart enough to know Canadians didn't live in igloos, but he didn't pay attention to much else in school.
"Are you ready to go Maxie?" Judy asked.
Max turned abruptly to look at her, "Huh? Oh… Oh Yeah! Of course!" he smiled, once finding his voice. He leapt into the van immediately.
"So… Dad, where'd you get the pickle-on-wheels?" Max laughed.
Both Judy and Harold laughed as well, "From the pickle jar of course, Max. Where else?" Harold replied with a smile.
"Of course, Dad, How could I have been so stupid?" Max laughed again. All three of them laughed, making up secret origins as they went along.
"It came from the planet Pickle-ton!"
"Spiderman's spider got hungry and bit a pickle!"
"Batman's first attempts at a car!"
And more like that.
Max was in a clearly pleasant mood, but as time progressed, his parents became involved with their discussions again and he was left to entertain himself for at least an hour.
That hour passed unnaturally fast as soon as Max had fallen asleep. He woke up to his mother's startled cry.
"Oh my- What happened to the BBA?"
Max jolted wake, a red line on his cheek from the seatbelt he had been resting his head on. Squinting out the window, through the raindrops, Max could see a huge building. It was not the BBA. On the front, Max had trouble reading it, but the logo was…
"BEGA?" Max said quietly.
Suddenly Max cried out in something that was awfully close to pain and clutched his stomach. Why, why did he feel so sick all of a sudden?
"It- It's alright, sweetie. We're almost at Tyson's house. Don't throw up now, tell me what hurts?" Judy said, reaching back to affectionately pat Max's back.
Max was shaking so hard, he didn't think it would stop. He finally lifted his head and, looking out the window, back towards BEGA, and gasped.
Max could've sworn there were two eyes, two glowing red eyes smirking at him…
Something very, very weird was going on…
Da dum, da dum, I'm just wastin your time cause we're movin ahead a little bit in the story!
"Hey- Hey, Tyson! I'm heee-rrrrrrreeee!" Max called loudly.
No one answered.
"Tyson? Rei? Chief? Hilary, Daichi?" Max paused a moment before hesitantly calling, "Kai?"
No answer.
Suddenly, "Hey! Little dog, don't 'cha mind letting a tired dude catch some 'Z's? Now get outta here before I bust out my sweet kendo moves on- oh! Maxie! Uses you'll be looking for ma man, Tyson and his peeps. Well, they're at the hospital, seemingly the little dude hurt his arm real good," Grandpa sighed, he gestured Max over and out of the rain.
"They'll be back any time now, so don't be afraid to make yourself at home, dude."
"Thanks Grandpa, I'll remember that," Max smiled as he walked inside.
He had set up his sleeping bag and was gearing up Draciel's engine-gear when the door burst open.
"MAAAAAAAAAAAAXXXXXXXXXIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEE!" Tyson screamed, launching himself across the room, seemingly forgetting his cast-covered arm.
Max welcomed the hug, but cried out in pain as soon as Tyson tried to hug him back, accidentally hitting the American with his cast.
"Sorry," Tyson said quietly, scuttling to the side and allowing everyone else to welcome Max back.
OH YEAH! I'M A WASTIN' YOU'RE TIME! We're going ahead a couple minutes… to the futurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrre! Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
"So, uh…. How'd you hurt your arm and how bad is it?" Max asked, gesturing to Tyson's cast.
Tyson looked down to the cast as if he had forgotten it was there, "Well, it's a bad bruising, I just avoided a fracture… or breaking it, whatever. Umm…"
"How'd that happen?" Max asked again, a sickening feeling welling up in his stomach.
"We… we were in BEGA and Tala and the Blitzkrieg Boys were there, minus Kai and… Tala battled this guy who was like Boris's right-hand man…"
"BORIS? You mean, the Boris, the one who tried to take Kai away from us?" Max demanded.
Tyson nodded, "Yeah. The same one. He got rid of the BBA and built BEGA in its place…"
Max nodded solemnly, "W-wouldn't Kai be here though? I mean… he definitely has a score to settle with Boris…"
Tyson bit his lower lip when Daichi suddenly leapt to his feet, "Why'd Kai have a problem with Boris if he's working for him? How do you guys know him? I want answers?"
Max's eyes grew as large as dinner plates as Daichi talked, he opened his mouth but Kenny replied sharply, "Almost three years ago, now, we were at the World Championships in Russia. We met Boris and he took us in and out of the cold for a bite to eat. He seemed to know Kai though, and kept pestering Kai about his past. Tyson ended up in a beybattle with one of Boris's students. With Kai's help, Tyson was just able to beat the boy… Alexander was his name, right? But, then, Boris smashed his blade under his foot and had Alexander dragged off by these two big guards! We left, but, I guess Kai made a silent vow to go back cause while we were out looking at the Russian sights, he went back to Balov Abby, where Boris was hiding.
Kai discovered that he had actually grown up and was raised in that very abbey. They fooled parents into believing it was a boarding school, but as soon as the kids went in, the parents never heard or saw them again. Boris turned them into emotionless robots, whose only goal was to win. Kai… well, we don't know what happened to his parents, but his only living relative is his grandpa. Who, by fate, was also the owner of Balcov Abby. They were beaten and abused for years and years. Finally, one day Kai used this Beyblade of unimaginable power and destroyed half the abbey. He then came to Japan where he became the leader of the blade Sharks and later met Tyson.
When Kai realized his past, he decided to join Boris, only because Black Dranzer had begun whispering in his ear again. It was taunting him with power. Kai took it and stole the bitbeasts of the AllStarz, white Tigers and nearly took our bitbeasts, but with Dranzer's help, we were able to stop him. Kai was finally broken, and nearly drowned because we had been battling on top of a frozen lake. We saved his life and then he came back to us. That's how we know Boris. He wand Voltaire, Kai's grandpa, were trying to take over the world. We foiled them last time, but this time… I think Boris is going solo."
"KAI IS WORKING FOR BORIS? WHAT THE HELL HPPENED?" Max cried suddenly, startling everyone with his sudden rage.
Wahahahaaa! I am gonna end here. Uh… sorry about my little bolded outbursts, they kinda ruined the story… but um… yeah. Please enjoy and review A.S.A.P.! Thanks!
