My story beings with Kai going to bed in his mansion at let say ten.
It had been a long day of training and I was about to go to bed when the phone rang. I half wanted to ignore it but it had that annoying ring that just wouldn't stop until you picked it up. So I had to literally drag myself towards the phone.
"Hello." I said in my usual voice thinking 'this had better be important.' I waited for an answer trying hard to keep my eyes open. "Is that you Kai?"
"Yes Mr. Dickinson what do you want?" I was too tired to care if it sounded rude or not. I pulled up a chair beside me. Whenever Mr. Dickinson wanted to talk it usually takes a good few minutes and I didn't have the energy to stand for long.
"I have something I wish to run by you before the championship. I have been studying this new person who I feel will be a reliable asset to the team." I sighed and rubbed my eyes tiredly. "It's a week before the beginning of the championship and you bring this up now?"
"I know it's a bit of short notice but the team needs five members to compete this year and you can't seem to choose anyone." I hated to admit it but he had a fair point. We auditioned players ever since the tournament ended and I felt neither of them were any good. "Just come see her tomorrow, the rest of the team are coming."
"Ok I'll take a look."
"Good, I'll see you tomorrow at two o'clock by the bey stadium." I was relieved when I finally put the phone down. It was then Mr. Dickinson's words hit me on my way to bed. 'A girl? He wants us to look at a girl? This will be the easiest decision I've ever made.'
The next day I met up with the team who were their usual cheerful selves. Mr. Dickinson came up to us and smiled. "Where's the new girl?" Tyson asked looking curiously at him. "She's not here?"
"She probably chickened out." I said with a smirk on my face. "Or maybe she's right behind you." I turned to see a girl with hair as white as snow fastened in a long ponytail rather like Rei's, her eyes were a deep emerald green. She must've been half a head shorter than I with no smile playing on her face. She was in a short red jacket over a black t-shirt and blue baggy jeans with grey trainers. "People say your cold but I didn't know you were a jerk as well."
"Strike one." I glared at her. "Baseball? I thought this was beyblade." She was really starting to piss me off. "Strike two."
"Please. We don't want to start off on the wrong foot now do we?" She looked at Mr. Dickinson with hate burning in her eyes. "Too late." I glared at her but she didn't seem to care.
We went inside the stadium to see what she could do. "I hope you blade as well as you talk." She glared at me. "I can talk the talk aright, and trust me when I say I can walk the walk." I raised an eyebrow when she said this, I almost believed her. "Who will be testing her?" As usual Tyson stepped up to the dish. The girl looked at him without any change on her face. "By the way what's your name?" She looked at him trying to decide. "I'll tell you after the match."
"Oooh, your one of those mysterious people." Tyson mocked with a childish grin. "Ok then, I hope you're prepared to loose." She shrugged and got ready to launch her blade as Tyson did the same. Her blade was smaller than an average sized blade, meaning she must have a great deal of speed and agility. It wasn't pink but a combination of black ad blue.
Max did the countdown and I noticed the girl had the utmost concentration on her face. She wasn't about to go down easy and I think Tyson noticed it too. He looked just as focused as she did. The countdown was over and then, they launched.
Tyson went in for the attack and she immediately disappeared. "Huh?" The girl started to look a bit dangerous and came in for the attack. Her blade striked Tyson's nearly hitting it out of the dish. "Nice try." Tyson came at her again and she was hit. Her blade grinded by the edge of the dish and dodged Tyson's attack by inches. He nearly ended up shooting right out the dish but gained control just in time.
"She's good." I heard Max say to Rei who nodded in agreement.
Tyson was starting to not take her lightly and turned on the wind. The girl didn't even flinch and looked at him. She raised her arm, which was pointed at her blade and raised it. We watched as her blade rose slowly up in to the air and left it there. I think she was looking for something.
"Kenny…how is she doing that?" Kenny was frantically typing on his laptop to try and find out. When he finished he looked grim. "I have no idea Tyson! All I know is that her power levels are going through the roof."
Then she seemed to have spotted something and moved in for an attack. She clicked her fingers and her blade charged in to the tornado and landed directly on top of Tyson's. "Reverse your spin." She ordered her blade. "No way!" It did so and made the momentum of Tyson's blade become slower and slower. Tyson tried to shake her off but she wasn't budging. It took a good few minutes before she managed to drain it completely.
By the end of the battle the tornado stopped and so had Tyson's blade. But the girl's kept spinning as if nothing had happened. "She beat me?"
"Yeah it looks that way Tyson." Max said chuckling slightly. "Yeah ok, that wasn't a bad battle. But you said you'd tell us your name." She looked at Tyson and smirked. "I did didn't I?" She started to walk away. "So what is it?" She stopped and shook her head. "Maybe I'll tell you tomorrow." Tyson growled at her. "Aaaahhh! You said you'd tell us after the battle!" She walked away. "I lied."
With that she was gone. "She's one of the most infuriating people I have ever met."
"Man, we've only just met her and she's already under your skin Tyson?" Max said with a smile on his face. He quickly ducked behind a wall as Tyson threw his hat at him. He picked up his hat and glared at the ground as they walked out. Mr. Dickinson looked worried and tried to calm him down. But Tyson was too angry to listen to him. That girl really did a number on him, I can't remember the last time I saw him like this. Rei and Mac didn't mind the girl but I had to agree with Tyson. She is just an annoying girl.
The next day we were training and I spotted the girl running laps around the park. I must've watched her for a good hour and not once did she stop. 'So she's fit, but I still want to see her power.'
When she did stop she stretched and looked around. She spotted me and I told her to stay there, she nodded and kept still. "Where are you going Kai?" Tyson asked and I looked over to the girl. "Oh."
"I'm going to see if I can get her name…and maybe find out a bit more about her." Tyson shrugged and went back to the others to train. I came over to the girl and looked her up and down. "See something you like?" She said in annoyed kind of way. Her arms were folded across her chest and she watched me cautiously. "You should treat us with a bit of respect."
"Hey you started it by calling me a chicken." She glared at me and I glared back. "Girls are weaker when it comes to strength so what's your best skill?" She sighed and looked less threatening. "Let's see…speed, agility, quick attacks, surprise attacks and brute force if needed." I was interested to see her prove these skills and I asked her to launch her blade. She seemed to accept my challenge and we launched.
Her speed and agility was very fast and perfectly controlled. The surprise and quick attacks nearly caught me off guard and dodged them by seconds. "Your speed is quite formidable…now lets see your brute force." She nodded and came in for a head on attack. I did the same knowing she wouldn't stand a chance. But never did I think she would last a full five minutes against me.
Her strength gave out just before mine and I knocked her blade out the dish. We were both tired from it but I didn't show it. She was panting and was on her knees with sweat pouring down her face. I picked up her blade noticing it was heavier than it should be because it was a smaller blade. I came towards her and handed her blade back to her. She looked up at me with angry eyes and took back her blade. "You put up a good fight." She glared at me. "Yeah right."
"Keep fighting like that and we'll win the championship." She looked away and started walking. But then she stopped and sighed. "Thanks." I watched her walk away before collapsing on a bench. She really took a lot of energy out of me and I smirked. She didn't know how close she came to beating me and never will.
"So?" Tyson said looking at me curiously. "So what?" I asked without looking at him. "Did you find out her name?" It had just occurred to me that I forgot to ask. "No." Tyson smirked. "She didn't tell you either."
"Hmph!" Was the last thing I said to him that day. Sometimes I wished he would grow up and start to take life a bit seriously.
