Chapter 3. I forgot to put in the ages for the characters, it will be from oldest to youngest in the age groups. I don't know anyone's actual age, aside from my character, so, I'm using their ages from the Bladers Forever website. And I made Grannie and Grandpa Granger the same age.

Grandpa Granger, Grannie-75

Kai, Chris, Ray-19

Mitzie, Tyson, Hilary, Max-18

Kenny-17

Daichi-14

Tigercubsis: Really? I wasn't going for touching. And the whole Grannie thing, my actual grandmother did that to me when a brought some of my friends over. It was embarrassing.

-The Bus Staion-

The G Revolutions were saying good by to Daichi. His bus was waiting for him. He was returning home to help his family with the new baby. He walked to the bus, which pulled off as soon as Daichi sat down.

"So, what do we do now?" Tyson asked

"I guess we do the tournament without him." Hilary said

"What do you mean we?" Tyson asked

"I mean we as in the rest of the team, Tyson." Hilary said

"Oh..." Tyson felt stupid

"Lets go." said Kai

They leave the bus station and head back to the dojo. About halfway there a mysterious person appeared in front of them! Out of nowhere! The person was male and had golden eyes and black hair. But there was something different about him. If you looked at his eyes yo could see traces of red. And the look on his face showed evil!

"Lee?" Ray said, uncertainly

"Yes, Ray. I decided to pay you a visit." Lee said, Ray noticed an evil gleam in his eyes.

"Why?" Ray asked suspiciously

"Simple, I am here to destroy Driger."

"I knew it! Your not Lee! What have you done with him?" Ray demanded

"Hmhmhm. But I am Lee. In a way. I have possessed him, and if you want to free him you must find the black panther Bit Beast and defeat me with it."

"Let Lee go!" Ray shouted, "Or else!"

"Or else what?"

"You'll have to answer to me and Driger!"

"Like I said, you must find the black panther, and only then will I face you. Oh, and by the way, my name is Dargone." said Lee/Dargone and he dissapeared.

"LEE!" Ray shouted

"What just happened?" Tyson asked

"something possessed Lee." Ray answered, "I have to find this black panther, but where?"

"Chris." Kai said

"Huh?"

"Chris has Dronther, a black panther." Kai clearified

"We have to find him." Ray said, and ran toward Chris' house. When he got there he quickly knocked on the door. Grannie answered it.

"Ooh, hello dearies, how are you?"

"Is Chris here?" Ray asked

"Why, no, he said he was going to see if you wanted to train." Grannie answered

"Awe, man, Thank you!" Ray said, and ran towards the dojo. He ran inside, followed by a panting Tyson, Hilary, Max, and Kenny, Kai was only starting to break a sweat.

"Gramps, has Chris been by here?" Ray asked, as soon as he found him.

"Yeah, dudes, he wanted to know if you home boys wanted to train. But you were awol, so he said never mind." Gramps said

"Did he say were he was going?" Ray asked

"Yeah, the park, but whats the low down?" Before he got an answer, Ray was gone. "The dude needs a chill pill. Tyson, you better tell me whats going on."

"Well it all started when we were coming back from the Bus Station..." Tyson explained everything to Gramps.

"Whoa, I wonder what happenin'" Gramps said

-The Park-

Ray was running around looking for any sign of Chris. 'Man, where is he?' Ray thought, 'Why is it when I need him he's nowhere to be found, but other times he pops up everywhere?' Suddenly a white shirt with black sleeves cought his eyes. 'There you are!' Ray ran up to the kid with the white shirt.

"Chris!" Ray shouts, causing the boy to turn around.

"Ray? Whats up?" Chris asked

"I need your Bit Beast!" Ray said

"What? No!" Chris said, "Why?"

"My friend is possessed, and he said if I get the black panther and battle him, he'll release my friend!"

"Take me to this guy, and I'll see what I can do."

Ray lead Chris to where he first met Lee/Dargone. When they got there no sign of Dargone could be seen, of Lee for that matter. Ray started to get worried. He looked all over the block, and the ones around it. But he still found nothing.

"Maybe he'll come if you call him." Chris suggested

"Its worth a shot." Ray said, "DARGONE!" No sooner than the nalme left Ray's mouth did a person appear in front of him.

"You found the black panther, I see. Now, you two must fight me, then and only then will I release your friend."

"You promise?" Ray asked

"Yes."

"And if you don't go throught with your promise, then...we get your powers!" Chris said, "Deal?"

"Deal!" They shook hands

All three of them get their launchers ready, and launched their blades. Dargone used Lee's blade, but now it had a dark aura around it. The the two blades lanched by Chris and Ray crashed into Lee's blade, causing sparks to fly. Lee's blade was actually holdin the two other blades at bey.

"How is that blade so strong?" Chris asked

"It must be the dark aura! But we can't destroy the blade, it belongs to Lee." Ray said

"Then lets go for knocking it out!...Stop it from spinning!" Chris said, he then says to Ray, "You get on one side, I get on the other, and we absorb the spin, okay?"

"Sounds like a plan!" Ray said

Driger and Dronther got by Galeon's sides, and pinned him between themselves. Galeon slowly began to loose spin.Galeon tried to get free, but he couldn't get out of Driger's nor Dronther's grip.

"You think it'll be that easy?" Dargone asked, "Dark Galeon! Show yourself!" Galeon came from its blade, surrounded it a dark aura! His fangs were longer, and his claws sharper.

"No way!" Ray said, shocked

"Ray, we need to call out our Bit Beast!" Chris said, "Dronther!"
"Driger!"

Dronther and Driger came from their blades and lunged at Dark Galeon. Dark Galeon was hit by both attacks and disperssed into tiny balls of energy, that reformed in the form of a bit chip, which landed in Ray's hand. While the blade stopped spining.

"Hm. My suspicions were correct. You are the same one whe defeated me over ten thousand years ago." Dargone said

"Um..I'm only 19." Chris said

"Me too." Ray added

"Hm...You are decendants of the Kon Family, yes?"

"Yeah, I am." Ray said

"I never meet my father." Chris said

"I must take my leave. Good bye." Dargone started to dissapeare

"WAIT!" Ray shouted, "What about Lee?"

"I'm evil, I decided I like this form."

"Tan you have to give us your powers." Chris said, "It was a deal. And you can't go back on a deal!"

"You are correct. I am sworn by a bit seal." A balck mist came from Lee's body, and flew into the sky, while Lee himself fell to the ground, unconcious. Ray and Chris ran to him.
"We need to get him to a bed." Chris said, "My house is closer. Lets go." Ray flung Lee over his shoulder, and followed Chris to his house.

End Chapter. I am aware that it took Ray and Max to lift Daichi in the previous chapter, but look how the kid eats! He's bound to be to heavy for one person.
