Here's chapter three.
Here's when Draciel comes in with a few surprises.
Enjoy.
(Ray's POV)
As the group and I walked through the piece of forest that Dranzer said would lead us to Draciel, Max was all hyper and excited. He couldn't wait to see Draciel.
The forest was large, but easy to maneuver through, so after a short time of walking, we came to a small lake. The water, from where we could see, was crystal clear. With a look around, Draciel was nowhere to be found.
"Where's Draciel?! Where's Draciel?! Where's Draciel?!" he complained. "I wanna see Draciel!!"
"Calm down Max." Dizzy said. "Draciel, as I have told you, moves quite often. He probably stepped out for awhile. We'll just have to wait until he gets back."
"I don't think we have to." Dranzer said, and the ground started to shake. After a moment, we found who we were looking for. Max's bit-beast, Draciel.
"OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMG!!" Max squealed. I had to hold him back by his shirt so he wouldn't run up and scare Draciel, being the hyper ball of energy he was.
"Hello Draciel." Dranzer said, making our presence known.
Draciel turned from the lake to face us. He looked just like he did as Max's bit-beast in his beyblade.
"Why hello Dranzer!" Draciel said. "And Dizzy too! What brings you two here?"
"We're not the only ones here to see you Draciel." Dizzy said, motioning to Kai, Kenny, hyper-Max and I.
"Hm?" Draciel looked confused at the sight of us. "Nobody told me that there was a time-warp! I would've come to help!"
"Now can I say hi?" Max asked. I looked at Dizzy. She nodded and I let Max go. He jumped up and down and all around, squealing about how much he's wanted to see Draciel and how he was like in the Bit-Beast world.
"THIS IS SOOOOOOO AWESOME!!!" Max finished, finally running out of steam.
Draciel laughed.
"You're still as energetic as usual I see!" Draciel said.
"So Draciel, do you by any chance know where Tyson is?" Kenny asked.
"Actually I do." Draciel answered. "He's with Dragoon at his house nearby. I was there because Dragoon called me over once Tyson appeared out of nowhere. I had to come back because…"
Draciel stopped in the middle of his sentence, about to say something he probably wasn't supposed to.
"What?" Max asked. "What'd you come back for?"
"Uhm…" Draciel started, trying to think up a good lie.
"Does it have something to do with that "Little One" thing that Dizzy and Dranzer started talking about yesterday?" I asked.
Draciel looked away.
"Maybe…." He muttered.
"Can you tell us?" Max asked, his eyes pleading. "Please oh please oh Please?"
"I'm not sure if I should…" Draciel said, looking in Dranzer's direction.
"But why not?" Kenny asked. "What harm could it do if he tells us?"
"What do you think Dranzer?" Dizzy asked. "Do you think that it'll do any damage?"
Dranzer sighed.
"Fine, go ahead." He said, and then said something under his breath that we couldn't hear. It looked to me that I was the only one who noticed.
"Then what'd you need to get?" Max asked Draciel.
"Well…" Draciel said, walking to the lake. "I had to wake up my son from his nap."
"You have a son!?" Max exclaimed. "Really?!"
"Yes, indeed I do." Draciel nodded. "Now wait here, I'll be right back."
And Draciel dove into the lake. After a few minutes, he returned with a little creature in his arms. It looked like a turtle, but on his legs were tiny fins, like a fish's.
"Aww!" Max cooed. "He's so cute!"
"His name is Dracie." Draciel said.
"He's adorable!" Max continued to coo. "...But wait a minute, who's his mommy?"
Erk.
Draciel had a look on his face that had hoped that none of us would ask him that. He was about to tell us when someone spoke up.
"Sharkrash, right?" Kai asked.
Draciel seemed surprised for a moment, then nodded. Max freaked.
"YOU MARRIED SHARKRASH?! FOR REALS?!!!" he squeamed *. Again, Draciel nodded.
"But wait a minute, Kai, how did you know?" Kenny asked.
"Dracie's legs." Kai said. "They have fins like a fish, and the only fish bit-beasts I know are Seaborg and Sharkrash. And I know very well that Seaborg is a male."
Draciel continued to nod. Things grew quiet until another bit-beast showed up.
"OH BIG BROTHEEEEEEEER!!!" the bit-beast sang, running into the clearing and nearly falling in the lake. One look at us and the bit-beast froze.
"Big Brother," it said to Draciel, "you didn't tell me you'd be having guests."
"DRACIEL'S YOUR BIG BROTHER?!!!" Max squeamed again. "Wow, I'm learning a lot today."
"Yes, this is my younger sister, Dracieo." Draciel said.
"I can see the family resemblance." I said, seeing that Dracieo looked almost exactly like Draciel, except that she was a little.... pinker. Like a purple-pink.....
"So, Dracieo, what brings you here?" Draciel asked.
"Don't you remember?" Dracieo asked her big brother. "The reunion's today!"
"Today?!" Draciel exclaimed. "Well, that would explain why Dragoon was already hyped up even before Tyson appeared."
"A reunion?" Max asked.
Draciel nodded.
"Yep!" Dracieo said. "We're all getting together for a little party! You wanna come? I'm sure we can fit you guys in, since Dragoon's house is so freaking huge!"
"I don't think--" Dranzer started.
"WE'D LOVE TO COME!!" Max exclaimed.
"Oh dear." Dranzer muttered. "This is going to end up a big mess."
See? Draciel with a couple of surprises!
Now, in the next chapter, the mystery POV from last chapter will be revealed (though lots of you have already guessed *correctly*) and Tyson may come in too.
I'm so sorry for not updating, but I've had school and crud.
Thanks for reading! Please review!
