Chapter 7
Wish upon a star
I do not own the Beyblade franchise but I do own my OCs. Speaking of which can you guys send me some ideas for them. I need more characters! Anyway so I also need a front cover for my story. I was thinking I could have a small 'competition' to see which one of you could make the best front cover. The best one will be used for the story. Just send it to me! Anyway, enjoy!
It was recess at Rando school. It was freezing cold outside from yesterday and Jakku stood underneath the undercover area next to Tyler. Pīto was battling some other kid and quite frankly destroying him. Pīto was gonna win for sure. "So...cccc cold," spluttered Jakku. "Well," said Tyler. "You wouldn't be freezing right now if you had just worn longer trousers."
"You only live once Tyler and I'm not spending my life putting on trousers."
"It takes the same time as shorts!"
"Whatever!"
Jakku watched the battle. Somehow the other kid was still holding onto the battle even though he was getting pounded. "Come on Pīto. Finish it!" Yelled Jakku. "You got it!" Replied Pīto. And with one final attack he sent the other Beyblade flying out of the stadium. "And that will be twenty points for me, thanks very much!" Exclaimed Pīto triumphantly. "Hey isn't that Taiyō over there?" Asked Tyler. Taiyō had been good friends with Jakku last year. He was an enthusiastic young boy with tanned skin dark brown hair with a blonde line cutting through the middle and golden eyes. He looked really sad for some reason. That was strange. He never looked sad. "Yeah, he looks sorta sad though," replied Jakku. Jakku walked over to Taiyō who was sitting in a dark gloomy corner of the undercover area. "Taiyō, what's wrong?" Asked Jakku.
"Nothing really. It's just...I don't have a Beyblade and no one is letting me use their's."
"Hey why don't you use mine?"
Jakku held out his hand with his gleaming Earth Libra in it. "No...its just...I dunno," stuttered Taiyō. Though Taiyō didn't say anything Jakku knew what he was trying to say. Jakku couldn't think of using anyone else's Beyblade now. Taiyō needed his own.
Because Taiyō didn't have his own Beyblade he was being left out. It would totally suck to come to school all the time and get left out every recess and lunch break. "Why don't you buy one then?" Asked Jakku. Taiyō held out his hand and he only had a ¥1 coin. That was no where near enough to buy a Beyblade. Jakku suddenly felt sad for Taiyō. If Jakku hadn't joined the world of Beyblade, socially he would have been left in the dust. The same might happen to Taiyō and at this moment Jakku needed to be a good friend. "Listen Makusu, Pīto, Tyler and I are going to this farm we rented out on the weekend. Do ya wanna come?" Asked Jakku.
"Really?"
"Yeah it'd be fun!"
"Sure thing!"
Later that week on Friday afternoon everyone went down to the farm. On Saturday everyone explored the whole day and in the late afternoon everyone was just about to jump onto their electronic devices when Jakku's Dad told them to go outside and hit a snake with a stick or something. So that's what they did. They went outside and looked for a snake. They searched for hours until the sun started to set. "Aaaaarrgh, where's the stupid snake?!" Moaned Pīto. "Are there even snakes in Japan?" Asked Taiyō.
"Yes there are, there are forty-seven species of snakes in Japan," replied Tyler
"We've been looking for hours! How about we just call it quits and go home," suggested Makusu. "Uhh guys it's getting dark now I think we should go back to the house," said Jakku. "Wait which way is back?" Asked Pīto.
No one knew the answer. It was almost getting to dark to see. "Why are we even looking for a snake" asked Taiyō. "I can't even remember," replied Jakku. "It's because we were going on our game consoles and computers," said Makusu. "Wait I'll just go on my computer and use the maps function to get us back!" Exclaimed Tyler triumphantly. "There's no WIFI genius," slurred Jakku. "Aaaahhh what are we gonna do? How will we get back? What happens when one of the forty-seven different types of snakes come for us?!" Yelled Tyler in distress. "Thanks for reminding us about the snakes!" Replied Makusu. "It's okay guys if a snake comes we'll just sacrifice Tyler," said Jakku.
"What why me?!"
"Because if you die no one at school will realise."
"Aaaaargh Jakku this is your fault we're out here!" Yelled Pīto. "Why?" Asked Jakku.
"Cause you invited us down here!"
Everyone continued to argue for a long time until they could barely see each other anymore. "K guys lets just sit down and chill out!" Suggested Taiyō. So that's what they did. "That's weird," said Jakku. "What's weird?" Asked Pīto.
"The ground's slimy."
"Jakku that's not the ground your touching!" Yelled Tyler. Jakku looked to his left and saw...a snake! It was staring him in the face with its ball bearing like eyes and it hissed softly. Jakku screamed and so did everyone else. Before they new it everyone was running down a hill when someone tripped and a sort of bolder effect started and everyone rolled down the hill. At the bottom they all dispersed in different directions. They groaned and as they started to pull themselves together the looked at each other angrily. "Guys look!" Exclaimed Taiyō. He pointed to the sky and it was dotted with beautiful vivid stars. It was amazing. It was if everyone stopped arguing and forgot about everything that had happened in the past few minutes and just sat there and gasped.
Everyone lay on the ground and pointed out constellations. "Look there's Pegasus!" Exclaimed Pīto. "Yeah and Draco too," said Makusu. Tyler shuffled over to Jakku. "Hey look! There's Libra," said Tyler. "So it is," replied Jakku. He pulled out Libra from his pocket. "It's the same as your Beyblade," said Tyler. "Yeah," said Jakku softly. "My Grandfather was born in Libra."
"Really?"
"Yeah."
"What date?"
"September 24th."
"Cool."
"Unfortunately he died recently."
"Oh."
Suddenly everyone was just quiet. The just lay under the stars and watched. "Southern Cross is bright tonight," said Pīto. "Sure is," replied Taiyō. "Wait a sec why is when of the stars falling from the Southern Cross."
"Oh gosh! It's a meteor and it's heading for us! Everyone run!" Yelled Tyler. Everyone got up and started sprinting but Jakku looked behind him to see that Taiyō had tripped over. "Taiyō no!" Yelled Jakku but it was to late. The meteor struck the ground and Jakku and his friends were sent flying and white light shone everywhere. Jakku hit the ground with a thud and got up immediately. Despite being disoriented, he wobbled around until he reached the crash sight expecting to see his friend's body flatted in the ground. Instead he saw Taiyō standing up. There was an orange aurora surrounding his body and he was holding his hand up in the air as if he was trying to block the meteor. But he had something in his hand. It was something black but strangely shiny. Taiyō looked at his hand in the air looking astonished that he was still alive.
"Taiyō?" Mumbled Jakku. Taiyō just stood there and gasped. Then the orange aura disappeared. Taiyō held his hand to his face and saw what he was holding. Everyone ran over to Jakku and gasped as the saw Taiyō was still alive. "My wish...it finally came true," said Taiyō. "What is it?" Asked Jakku. "My new friend!" Exclaimed Taiyō as he held out his hand with...a Beyblade in it? "Taiyō!" Gasped Jakku. The Beyblade had a black fusion wheel with a rose gold energy ring. The face bolt was also rose gold and depicted a sun but with a star shape behind it. "Awsome," gasped Jakku. "Well someone's gonna have to battle it and I guess I'm up first!" Exclaimed Jakku as he held out his launcher. "Alright then," replied Taiyō. He pulled out something from his pocket. It was an orange Light Launcher with a blue Ripcord. "I've been saving this for a long time," said Taiyō. "Wait Jakku what are you doing? You nearly got hit by a meteor and now you wanna Bey battle? I mean...there's everything to consider like the nasty tumble you just had..." Panicked Tyler. But Jakku nor Taiyō was listening as Tyler rambled on about all the things that could go wrong. They were just getting ready to battle.
"3."
"Aaaaaahhh!" Yelled Tyler.
"2."
"1."
"Let it rip!"
The two Beyblade landed on the gravel road that was next to them. This road ran through the countryside. Funny that the kids hadn't thought to take it back to the house. They just focused on the battle. "Go now!" Yelled Taiyō and Jakku. "Tyler! Tell us about that Bey!" Exclaimed Makusu. Tyler opened his computer and started typing.
"Ok," began Tyler. "What I'm getting here is Vulcan Sunstar 145W²D. It's a defence type like Libra but it has the ability to be super aggressive too." Just then Libra and Sunstar collided at huge speeds that there was an explosion. Jakku was sent flying into a near by tree along with Libra. There was dust circling around the place where they landed. Suddenly Libra and Jakku flew out of the dust quickly and started running quickly towards Taiyō and Sunstar. "Go Libra attack!" Yelled Jakku. "Go Vulcan Sunstar!" Yelled Taiyō. The two Beys started grinding against each other sending sparks flying. Libra and Sunstar continued to battle. 'How is he continuing like this? He just picked up a Bey for the first time and he's owning me. I need to finish this!' Though Jakku. "Libra attack!" Yelled Jakku. "Sunstar!" Replied Taiyō. The battle was fierce. Every time the Beys hit there was an explosion. "Vulcan Sunstar's power is off the charts! I've never seen this much power in a Bey before!" Exclaimed Tyler. "Ok Taiyō. You've put up a good fight but I have to end this!" Yelled Jakku. "Special Move! Ramming Spirit Shield Ultimate!" Libra turned into an amazing streak of green light hurtling towards Vulcan Sunstar. "Ok Sunstar I need your power," said Taiyō. "What," asked Jakku. "Special Move! Suns of the Cosmos!" Yelled Taiyō. The Southern Cross constellation shone brightly and much like a tractor beam projected light between each other and the projected it onto Sunstar. The aurora appeared again around Taiyō and he yelled at the top of his lungs. The two Beys then sped towards each other.
The Beys collided and white light went everywhere. It was blinding and when it finally disappeared the Beys were no where to be seen. Suddenly they fell from the sky and bounced on the ground. Both Beys had stopped spinning and Taiyō and Jakku just looked at each and smiled. The battle had been a tie. They stood there and looked at each other under the stars. Taiyō had finally discovered the bladers spirit.
Anyway that's all we have for today. Stay posted for the next chapter of Beyblade Metal Ghost. Up next is Return of The Golden Dragon!
