GOG: Nothing much to say except...
I don't own Beyblade! And keep guessing on the letter! Another hint!
The song is for Sephiroth, the 'One Winged Angel'
If that doesn't help, I don't know what will!
----------A Gruesome Discovery----------
The Bladebrakers and 2/3 of the Demolition Boys continued to run down the long, metal hallway. Fro their perspective, the dang this never ended, yet they kept running.
"Does this thing have an ending?!" Tyson complained. "It feels like we've been running for ages!"
Kai looked back at the lagging teen with a sigh. "Stop complaining, Tyson." He returned his gaze to his front. He did have to agree with Tyson on one thing though. It did feel like they were running for quite some time now, but he wouldn't stop, not without Kinta.
Amazingly, after almost forty-five minuets of running, the group came to another large opening. This one led into was appeared to be a dock for just about every mode of transportation known to man. There was a very large boat, some smaller ones, four helicopters, a jet plane, and several fighter jets. There was also something unbelievably huge hidden under a just as large tarp. It had a symbol of a Beyblade inside a heart with two jousting sticks crossing underneath the heart. To Kai, it looked familiar.
The bladers stood there in aw.
"I've never seen this much stuff in one place in all my life." Ray gasped. Just then, he and the others heard footsteps.
"Hide!" Kenny yelled softly, but loud enough that everybody could hear. In front of the opening were a few wooden crates, which is where they all hid. Seconds later, two men in lab coats, two soldiers, and a man, no older than thirty. This man had blond hair that went an inch or two past his shoulders. A small part in the front on each side of his head was braded. He had gold eyes and a golden headband that covered his forehead and disappeared into his hair. It had a green bead that held four feather looking things to it. He also wore a black eye patch on his left eye and had a scar that ran out of the eye patch and across his nose. His shirt was a blue with a red cape that draped down to his knees. The cape was held onto the shirt by a gold piece. His pants were black. But the oddest thing was that his ears were pointed, like an elf's.
"He must be the leader." Bryan whispered to Kai, who hid right next to him.
Kai nodded. "Yea. He must be behind Kinta's capture.
Back with the mistry man, he was speaking with the two scientists behind him.
"Sir, I don't think it would be a good idea to continue with the experiment. It may kill her." The scientist on the left spoke the man.
"Trust me on this one. Boris tried this out over thirteen years ago on a boy the same age as her, and it worked fine. He just needed to be killed due to his wildness. I intend that won't happen here?" The 'leader' asked.
This time the second scientist spoke. "Of coarse not, sir."
The man nodded in approval. "Good. Now, whatever happened to the red head we caught earlier?"
One of the soldiers from the back answered. "He is in cell #587 level 4. Boris should be meeting with him now."
The 'leader' shrugged. "Good enough." He looked at the crates. "What are those?"
"They are the extra weapons. They'll have to tide us over until we can receive the atomic and nuclear bombs." The other soldier said.
The young man nodded. "Perfect. Have them brought into the base. Put them on level 5 with the others."
"Yes, Sir!" The two soldiers said in union. The two scientists and their leader' walked back into what was now confirmed as the base. There were four large boxes total and behind all of them was where the teenagers hid. Both soldiers went over to the first two boxes on the left side. Here, Kai, Bryan, Max, and Tyson were hiding.
"Hang onto the box when they are lifted. We should have a few minuets before-." Bryan was interrupted when he heard the box shift and a grunt. The soldier was attempting to lift the box!
"Hold on!" Kai said. He and Bryan griped the top of the box and held on for dear life. Max moved inward more as he saw the two Russians being taken away. Soon he and Tyson found themselves holding onto the box as well.
(I can't believe that these guys are lifting these boxes without any help! Each box must weigh a thousand pounds! Maybe a ton!) Thought Max.
Before he left the others, Tyson mouthed the words 'Go' then the opening was closed.
Hilary reached her hand out a bit. "Tyson..." She turned to the three boys. "Tyson said that we should go. We would just get in the way. So let's go." She stood up without looking to see if the hallway was cleared, which it wasn't. She came face to face with Boris. Fortunately, he didn't see the others, only her.
"Well, Well, what do we have here? A little girl like you has no place here. You best come with me." He reached out to her and grabbed her arm harshly.
"Hey! Let me go, you creep!" Hilary screamed.
"Shut up girl!" Before she knew it, Boris had knocked her over the head and she fell limp in his arm. "That's better." He flung her over his shoulder and left for the base.
"That bastard!" Ian said while tightening his fists.
"Maybe we should leave now. Tyson and the others will get out of there with everyone." Kenny said. The other two nodded and they ran out of the hallway.
---On the Fifth Level---
The four boys still hung onto the crates unnoticed. The two soldiers continued to carry the crates of weapons into a large, but dark, room. There, the boxes were placed. As soon as they were on the ground again, the four bladers followed the soldiers out of the room before the automatic door closed. When they were gone, Tyson spoke.
"This place is really high tech, ya know?"
"I also noticed that those soldiers were from the American Army." Said Max.
Bryan cocked an eyebrow. "How?"
"I could tell by their uniforms and I got a glimpse of their badges when they first walked by the crates." He answered.
Kai cut in. "Anyway, we need to get to level four. They said that a red hear teen was caught there. It could be Tala and he may know where to find Kinta."
Bryan nodded. "Right. We need to find a stairwell that leads downward."
The three other boys agreed and started searching. It didn't take too long before one was found.
"Over here you guys!" Tyson yelled.
"You didn't need to yell. We were right next to you." Kai said.
"Sorry. Let's go!"
The four boys went down the stairs, unknowing of what they would find. The stairs didn't last that long and the boys soon found themselves in a dim hallway. This was different from what they saw before. They thought it, too, would be metal. But this was different. The walls were made of stone. Every few yards, a light lit the way. They showed chambers that appeared to be empty.
"It's like a movie scene." Max commented, walking into the dark area.
"Tala should be here somewhere. So let's start looking." Bryan ordered.
"I would rather leave him here if you ask me." Smirked Kai.
Against Kai's wish, they searched for Tala. It seamed like there were thousands of chambers, of which all were empty so far. The boys continued looking.
Tyson sighed. "This is pointless! If we didn't find him yet he's probably not in any of the other cells either!" He let out a sigh and closed his eyes while walking.
Max smiled. "You're just to lazy to continue searching."
"Am not! Whoa!" A loose stone interrupted Tyson. He seamed to of tripped on it and caused something to happen. Just like before, they heard a light rumble. The four turned their heads to an open space on the wall, which started to draw back into the left side. Once it was done, it showed another hallway of stone.
"This is getting annoying..." Kai said flatly.
He was the first to enter the new hall. He removed one of the torches from the wall and walked inside. Bryan, Tyson and Max soon followed. This hallway was long, but not as long as the first one. The boys didn't speak the whole time, until...
"AHHHHH!!!!!"
Bryan looked around. "What the hell was that?!"
Kai looked ahead and squinted. He could see a faint, green light at the end of the tunnel.
"It might be Kinta or Tala. Let's go!"
The other three didn't waist any time in running after the two-tone Russian. As they got closer, the light got bigger. They were soon there.
Kai blew out the torch and placed it on the ground, then peered around the corner. His eyes went wide at what he saw. It scared him.
(What are they doing?!)
Inside the glowing room were Kinta, Tala, Boris and that man from the hallway before. Tala was locked in a small iron cage, guarded by two soldiers. He seemed to be unconscious. Kinta, on the other hand, was awake and in pain. She was screaming, but only the sound of bubbling water was heard. Her eyes were squeezed tight as she squirmed to be free of the chains and wires that held her down in the tube she was in. Boris and the other man, 'Leader', were talking quietly to each other. They kept glancing back between Tala and Kinta, but mostly focused of Kinta. The thing that scared and worried Kai the most were the changes on Kinta's body. Aside from being stripped down to her panties and 'bra'. /A/N: Her PJ's were ripped enough just to cover her boobs/ Covering her legs was black fur. It also was on her arms and the outline of her face. Her hair started to turn black as well, but kept its silver strips. The two remaining this that Kai could see were the cat ears that replaced her normal ones.
Kai wicked back around to the others. "They're doing something to her, and I don't like it."
"What about Tala?" Max asked.
"He's there as well."
"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go get 'em!" Tyson pumped his fist into the air. He was about to walk into the room when Kai stopped him.
"Not yet. We need a plan. Boris is in there with that guy from before, alone with two armed soldiers."
Bryan looked in the still glowing room. "What are they armed with?"
Kai shrugged. "They each had a main gun, some pistils, and maybe a few other things."
"We're fine then."
Kai's eyes went wide for a second, and then went back to normal when he knew what Bryan meant. "We can use Kinta as a shield. They wouldn't shoot if she were too close to us. Perfect."
Bryan smirked. "So I take it we are ready then?"
The other three nodded.
"3...2...1...Move!"
The three boys ran into the room, beyblades out. They lined up and each pointed them at the four free men.
The Mystery man yelled and pointed at the boys. "Get them!"
The two soldiers nodded and readied their guns. Kai and Bryan exchanged looks and did a dodge roll just as they fired the first shots. The mark left on the floor proved that these weren't normal guns...they were lasers. The Russians met up with each other again near Kinta's tube. The soldiers were ready to fire again, but Boris stopped them.
"Don't fire! You'll shoot the glass tube!"
The two men nodded and removed their fingers from the triggers, but still held the guns pointed at the boys.
Boris slowly walked up to the two Abby boys and smirked. "Well, seems like we have you at our will...again"
Fortunately, Tyson and Max had gone unnoticed. They snuck up behind the two soldiers and pinched them on the back of the neck, having them fall to the ground with a low 'thump'.
The sound made Boris and 'leader' turn their heads. This gave Kai and Bryan the chance to evade. They sprawled behind the two and kicked them in the back. Kai looked over to Max, who got his message. He took the two guns from the fallen soldiers and handed one to Tyson. Tyson and he then went over to the other two bodies on the ground and pointed the lasers at them.
Kai nodded in approval and went to the controls. He and Bryan looked for something that would get Kinta out of that chamber. The room was filled with nothing but Kinta's muted scream, which started to sound like the roar of a large, wildcat.
Bryan saw a big red button and showed Kai. The two looked at each other, then Kinta, then the button. And without hesitation, Kai pushed on it. He heard Kinta's screams stop and the sound of liquid flowing out. He looked at Kinta's tube and saw just what he wanted; her body was limp, but alive, and that odd-looking water was draining from the tube.
He walked over to her and saw she was still attached to the wires and chains, which held her body up.
"Now, let's get her out of there." Kai ordered. Max, followed be Tyson, started to walk away from their site since Boris and that other guy were out cold...or so they thought.
Max had made it over to the other boys but Tyson never did. Someone had grabbed his ankle and stopped him. Before Tyson could see who stopped him, he felt something sharp go into his skin be his ankle. After that, he felt his body go numb and was carried off away from Kai and the others and soon blacked out.
Bryan, Kai and Max didn't notice a thing that had happed behind them. Kai took out his beyblade, Dranzer, and aimed at the glass. He launched it and watched as it attacked the glass.
A few minuets after Kai launched Dranzer, the glass began to crack. Bit by bit, the glass cracked more and more. And soon, it shattered. Once this happened, he reached in and removed the tubes and chains from Kinta's body. She was still unconscious. He took her in his arms and looked at the transformed girl. The fur patched had grown in that short period of time. They now covered all of her body except the front of her face and part of her torso from her chest past her abdomen. She still had those cat ears on top of her head and now had a short stubby tail.
Kai could only sigh in defeat. "What ever they wanted done to her must have been completed."
Bryan looked shocked. He had never seen something like this done to a human, and in such a short time. "Is this what you saw?"
"Yes"
"Hey you guys! Boris and that other guy's bodies aren't here anymore. Neither is Tyson." Max said across the room.
"He's probably taking them someplace. Let's get Tala and get out of here. I don't know what happened to them, but I have a feeling it was bad." Kai ordered. Bryan did nothing but went over to Tala's cage and unhooked the bars. He pulled the body to him and picked him up. Tala didn't look as bad as Kinta, but still bad. He had several deep gashes all over and looked as though he was beaten...just like the old days in the Abby. Bryan shook his head to relieve himself of the painful memories and followed Kai and Max out of the room.
The group backtracked through the several hallways and found themselves in the large room, which held the fighter jets. They went out of that room and were soon in the long, metal hallway once more. Kai was carrying Kinta bridal style and Bryan had Tala slung over his shoulder. The three boys continued running until they reached the end. When they did, it was raining. The sky was clouded with gray, dark blue and black, nothing like before. They continued on their way but came to a halt at a lump on the ground. On closed inspection, it took the form of a human...and that human was Tyson! He was on his side and as wounded at Tala. Unbeknownst to the boys, a transformation, almost like Kinta's, was taking place under his shirt. There was also a note pinned to his jacket. It had the same symbol as the tarp and first note.
Max ripped it off and tried to read it out loud:
Estuans interius
ira vehementi
Sors immanis
Et inanis
Veni, veni, venias,
Ne me mori facias
Sors"I understand only one word in this thing." Max pointed out.
Kai looked back at the entrance. "Good. Tell us later. Grab Tyson, Max, and let's go!"
Max did as he was told and followed the older Russian's out of the forest and to Kinta's home...for now.
---Kinta's House---
The three –well six- teenagers flew into the house. They were tired, wet, cold, and a bit hungry but they didn't pay any attention to their needs.
Kai moved in first. "Let's lay them down on the couches and tell the others that we found Kinta and are at her house."
He, along with Bryan and Max, put Tyson and Tala on the other couches.
"I'll notify the others." Said Max.
Kai looked around at his friends. First Kinta, then Tala, and now Tyson. What had happened to them? What were Boris and that other man up to? He just couldn't figure it out. He looked at Bryan. His eyes became glossy.
"What do you think happened to them?"
"I don't know."
"Damn it all...straight to Hell."
"You couldn't help it...we couldn't do anything."
"Nothing? No one can do anything. I thought you knew that, Bryan."
"I do I just-...then again, maybe I don't."
Before Kai could speak, Max entered the room.
"They're on their way right now."
Kai nodded. "Good. Maybe Darcia can help us with this." He looked at Kinta. She was breathing faster than normal humans do. And if you listened closely, you could here her purr.
About forty-five minuets after Max called everyone, they arrived. First entered the White Tigers with ray, then the All-Starz, the Majestics, and lastly Serena, Kida, Darcia and Mr. Dickson.
"Where is she? Is she alright?" Darcia asked. Everyone could tell he was worried by the sound of his voice.
Max, Bryan and Kai looked at the ground, sadly. They didn't know what they were going to say.
Darcia asked again. "Well?"
Kai could only point at their old friend. Darcia gave him a puzzled look, but followed his finger to the girl.
"That's Kinta?"
Kai nodded. "We found her like this. We also found Tala passed out there as well and Tyson was knocked out in front of where we found her."
"Oh no...It's as she said..." Serena gasped.
"What do you mean 'it's as she said'?" Robert asked.
Darcia became valiant and walked up to his fallen friend. He knelt down beside her and looked her over. "Kinta told us that her father once spoke of the true power of a bit beast. He said that when a sacred spirit and its master have a strong connection, they can fuse into one grand being."
"Fuse together? That's impossible." Robert protested.
"If it was, then Kinta wouldn't be the way she is now. Tala and Tyson are probably going through the same thing."
Kida walked over to Tyson. She placed her hand under his shirt and felt around.
Hilary became mad. "Hey! What do you think you're doing?!"
Kida shushed her and continued. "Ah Ha! There it is."
"What is?" asked Ray.
"Dragon scales."
"Dragon scales?"
"Yes. His bit beast is the dragon Dragoon, correct?"
Ray nodded.
"Then he is changing as well."
"Tala's changing too!" Serena called from across the room.
Both he and Tyson were showing that they were changing. Tyson had blue dragon scales covering his torso, arms and legs. His ears were disappearing since Dragoon had none and had claws. He was also growing a tail that was, too, covered with blue dragon scales. Tala showed similar markings on his body. Instead of scales, he was growing gray fur on his arms and legs. His back was also covered and the front of his torso was outlined with it. He was growing a fluffy gray tail along with the ice wings that Wolborg had. To top it off, he had claws, fangs and pointed ears on the top of his head.
"Did you happen to spot anyone while you were there?" Oliver asked.
Kai nodded. "Yea. Boris and some other man."
Darcia's head shot up and looked at Kai. "What did he look like?"
"The man had blond hair that went an inch or two past his shoulders. He had gold eyes and a golden headband that covered his forehead and disappeared into his hair. He also wore a black eye patch on his left eye and had a scar that ran out of the eye patch and across his nose. But the oddest thing was that his ears were pointed, like an elf's."
"That's him...Blade."
Kai, Bryan, Kida and Serena all looked at him with shock.
"Blade? But I thought he was in prison all the way in America." Michael asked.
Serena raised an eyebrow at him. "How did you know?"
"It was all over the news."
Eddy butted in. "But it said nothing about him escaping."
"Maybe the government didn't want the American people to worry." Emily said while adjusting her glasses.
Johnny nodded in agreement. "Yea, you already have enough to worry about."
The All Starz and Max only glared at the Scotsmen. (A/N: This takes place in our time so Johnny is referring to the War on Terror)
"Knock it off, Johnny." Robert commanded.
Darcia spoke once thing were settled. "Anyway, we need to focus on what Boris and Blade are going to do."
"I say we wait and defeat them at the championships!" Tyson said, pumping his fist.
"Oh no! The Tournament! I completely forgot! What are we going to do now? We're entered in and it's only five days away." Exclaimed Darcia.
Kenny was about to say something but was interrupted by a groaning sound.
"Ugh...what's with all the yelling?"
The teenager turned toward the source and saw Kinta, awake, sitting up on the couch.
"Kinta!" Serena and Kida yelled at the same time. They ran to their friend and gave her a hug.
"Serena? Kinta? What happened?" Kinta barely returned the hug.
She looked at Darcia, who pointed to her hands. Kinta was puzzled at this, but looked at her hands. She gasped when they were furry, black, and clawed. She returned her eyes to Darcia. It looked as if she was about to cry.
"He's back...isn't he?"
Darcia nodded.
Kai looked at Kinta, a bit sad. (She must be talking about Blade. He must of tried this on her before and terrified her. Normally, she would never cry, no matter how sad she was.)
Kinta sniffed and looked around. Everyone was there, all eyes on her. A single tear strolled down her cheek.
"I don't want to go through that again..." She said in a low whisper.
Kai sat down next to her and wrapped a protective arm around her. She leaned into him, more tears falling. Kai looked like he was about to cry to, along with Darcia, Kida, Bryan, and Serena.
"We won't let that happen...I won't let you be hurt again."
