Still don't own Beyblade. Isn't that nice? And let's read what happens next.
Chapter 30: Befriending
"Judy!" A Chinese girl at the airport called over a blonde girl. The two friends greeted each other after years.
"When did you move to Japan?" Judy asked.
"A few months ago. I'm completely settled in!"
"Trip on any guys yet?"
"That's not funny."
"Yes it was. Admit it. That guy even wanted your phone number after a while."
"Shut up. How are you and Dracy doing?" Judy smiled and took out a sparkly gold pendant.
Tysa felt around her surroundings. It was soft, but not the softness of freezing snow, but of a warm bed.
"You're alive?" a voice asked. Tysa opened her eyes and saw a red-haired boy sitting to the side of her.
"Where am I—"
"Shh!" the guy motioned for her to be quiet. "Boris shouldn't find out about you. He doesn't like outsiders that much."
"Where am I?" Tysa asked quietly.
"Biovolt." The guy said simply. Tysa got up with a start.
"Biovolt!" she whispered harshly. Then, her body felt a surge of pain, forcing her back down. The guy looked at her questionably.
"You're not Tyson, right?" he asked. Tysa nodded.
"I'm his twin sister. Tysa."
"Tysa, huh? Part of the Bladebreakers?"
"Yes." That made Tysa remember about her beyblade. She felt around her person. When there was no bump of a beyblade, she started to panic.
"What's wrong?" he asked. Tysa then grabbed his shirt collar angrily.
"Where's my Kairi?" she growled as she put on a menacing glare. The red-haired guy started to get scared.
"Hey, Tala!" a short guy with blackish hair entered the small room. "We analyzed that 'blade and—" Tysa moved her anger to the little guy.
"Where's my Kairi?" she repeated.
"T-Tala, who is this girl?" the little guy cried.
"She's the owner of that 'blade." Tala answered. "She's Tyson's twin sister." Then, two more boys entered: a really tall one with brown hair, and other one with grayish hair.
"Here's the beyblade, Tala!" the grayish haired one said, holding up a white and silver beyblade. "Huh?" he asked, confused, seeing one of his teammates getting held up by a person that looked like Tyson, but with long hair. "Ian? Are you getting beat up by—"
"Give me my Kairi." Tysa growled, holding the grayish hair one.
"Hey!" the tall one said. "Get off of—umph!" Tysa quickly punched the tall one, causing great fear in the other three.
"Give me my Kairi." Tysa repeated. Then, another surge of pain shot through her, causing her to collapse again.
"Tala, w-who is this person?" the gray haired one asked, fearful.
"That's Tyson's twin sister, Bryan." Tala answered rather calmly from what just happened. "I found her during that snowstorm."
"And you brought her here!" Ian asked. "What were you thinking!"
"That she would've died if I hadn't." Tala answered. "And, besides, I owe Tyson."
"But, Tala, s-she punched out Spencer!" Bryan said. "The strongest guys here can't even do that!" Spencer groaned upon hearing his name.
"Nothing we can do about that, can we?" Tala retorted as he picked up Tysa. "Now, tell me what you found out about her…Kairi."
"Well, it doesn't have any bit-beasts in it at all, but…" Bryan looked at it. "It has a similar energy to one. It's like it adapts. It could be even more powerful than a bit-beast!"
"You're kidding!" Ian exclaimed. "More powerful than a bit-beast?"
"Yeah!" Bryan nodded excitedly. "Think about it! If we can make more of these-!"
"Enough."
"Tala!" Both Ian and Bryan looked at their leader.
"She needs to get better, and Boris can't know. You know he especially hates girls."
"But, Tala—"
"And that also means no experimenting on her beyblade. It's too fine tuned for that. Boris will get suspicious if we 'found' a perfectly fine beyblade." Tala's words sparked disinterest in Bryan's mind, and he instantly dropped the idea.
"But it would be cool though…" Bryan mused. He took a closer look at the sleeping girl. "And, you know, she's kind of cute. Maybe we can…"
"No, Bryan." Tala said firmly.
"Look, I haven't had feminine contact since my mother. At least I can…"
"No." Tala said even firmer. Bryan shrugged. Ian looked at Tysa as well.
"I wonder if she's a good beyblader?" Ian asked. Tysa let out a groan of an awakening person. She opened her eyes softly.
"Uh…here's your beyblade." Bryan held out the Kairi. Tysa took it warily.
"So, wait…you guys are…the Demolition Boys…right?" she asked.
"You're brother told you that, right?" Ian asked. Tysa nodded. She examined her beyblade.
"But who's this 'Boris' guy? I've never heard of him…" she asked while she was examining it.
"We didn't do anything bad to your 'blade y'know…" Bryan said.
"Boris runs this place. From your reaction earlier, you apparently know what Biovolt is." Tala answered. Tysa nodded.
"The owner…is Voltaire. Kai's grandfather, right?" Tysa asked again, just for clairity.
"Urrrh, that no good Kai!" Bryan growled. "Just once I would want to get my hands on that weasel…"
"So, um…Tysa?" Ian asked. Tysa nodded as Ian asked his original question.
"Yeah. I'm pretty good." Tysa answered.
"Well, you must be for punching Spencer out." Bryan looked pityingly at the still unconscious Spencer, then looked back to Tysa. "You do know that he's the strongest here, don't you?"
"Well, if I did, I wouldn't have punched him that hard. I would've left him some pride." Tysa spat. Bryan was impressed that she was that tough, but he didn't show it.
"Where are you four!" a voice yelled from outside the room. The three conscious boys started to panic.
"Who is that—umph!" Tala quickly covered Tysa's mouth.
"That's Boris!" Tala whispered harshly. "We have to find somewhere to hide you!" Tysa looked around with her still head. This room was small, and there weren't many hiding places she could fit in.
"Tala! Bryan! Spencer! Ian!" Boris' angry voice sounded again.
"Take my beyblade!" Tysa whispered to Tala and held out her beyblade.
"What?" Tala asked.
"Take my beyblade!" Tysa said more firmly.
"You guys better not be hiding from me!" Boris yelled as he opened the door. "Huh?" The three conscious Demolition boys were just as confused as Boris was. "Why is Spencer sleeping?" Boris yelled. The D.B.'s didn't answer at first. They were still trying to figure out where Tysa suddenly went.
"Uh…Spencer accidentally charged into a wall!" Ian suddenly said. Boris looked at the boys suspiciously. They were acting normal enough…
"Fine then. You have training in a half hour." Boris said as he walked out the door. The three boys let out a sigh of relief. Then, the Kairi started wiggling in Tala's hidden hand. He looked at it confused as it released a flash of light, and Tysa appeared back in the bed, also confused.
"I still have no idea what happened…" she said. She looked at the other staring boys.
"And here we were hoping you would explain." Bryan said with sarcasm. Tysa glared at him and he glared back. It didn't last wrong though, because Tysa's glare was stronger. Bryan turned his face.
"Wow. You're the first person to beat Bryan's glare." Ian said with amazement.
"Guess I'm doing a lot of firsts aren't I?" Tysa said.
"Well, we better get to practice." Bryan said sharply. He started to drag Spencer out of the room. Ian sighed and followed, leaving Tala and Tysa.
"Try to stay quiet." Tala told her. Tysa turned into the side of the bed.
"Like I want to be the end of Boris' anger." Tysa said. Tala narrowed his eyes at her. It's like she couldn't be more proud. He sighed and pulled the blankets up to her neck, and walked out the door.
Well, isn't Tysa lucky? or unlucky? Reading this again, I'm not sure. Although I do feel sorry for the Demolition boys...
