The World Championships

Chapter 11 Wolf vs. Buffalo and Whale vs. Eagle

After the G-Revolutions and White Tiger X had parted company, and they were back in their respective stands, DJ Jazzman announced the next teams.

"The first team to compete are the beyblading gladiators, the PPB All Starz"

A loud cheer flooded the stadium. While this happened, the PPB All Starz strolled in, all were ready to go.

"And their opponents, let's give a warm welcome to the Blitzkrieg Boyz"

The crowd clapped and cheered as the Blitzkrieg Boyz entered, and from her seat in the crowd, Luna blew Tala a kiss. Tala reciprocated, making her heart flutter.

Now at their respective benches, the Blitzkrieg Boyz and PPB All Starz prepared to battle. Before long, Steve Jones strolled up, he waited for his opponent.

"The PPB All Starz are sending Steve to the dish, with his combination of speed, strength and cunning are a no brainer in this high-pressure situation"

"You said it, Brad, but who'll the Blitzkrieg Boyz send to counter"

Tala squared his shoulders and walked purposefully over, taking his position opposite Steve.

"Well, there's your answer, AJ, the Blitzkrieg Boyz plan to fight fire with fire power, and when strength, speed and endurance are concerned it doesn't get much hotter than Tala"

As soon as Tala reached his position, the ground split open, revealing a stadium with the Royal Palace of Madrid, complete with its armoury and gardens.

"Gentleman, take your positions and prepare to launch on my order"

"Don't get too comfortable, because you won't be sticking around long"

"Strong words but can you back them up with action"

"You bet"

"Ready, and three, two, one, Let it rip"

"Let It Rip"

Steve and Tala launched their beyblades into the palace gardens, the two blades landed perfectly.

"Tryhorn, attack"

Tryhorn responded to Steve's command, and began to slam Wolborg ferociously, striking it with heavy blows. However, despite the beating that his blade was taking, Tala didn't care remotely.

"And the game is on, Steve is in serious overdrive and he's not easing up at all, but Tala doesn't look worried because his Wolborg seems to be absorbing the offence"

"That's it, Steve, you're doing great"

"Keep up the steady attack"

"Go, Tryhorn, attack"

Tryhorn began to slam Wolborg mercilessly, dealing it heavy damage, even though Tala was unconcerned.

"That's right, waste your energy on a pointless attack, and soon you'll be at my mercy"

Wolborg slammed Tryhorn hard, forcefully sending it to the edge of the dish.

"I think Steve's used up all his good luck mojo"

"Attack, Tryhorn, hit him hard with your Stampede Rush"

A herd of huge buffalo appeared, and Steve's blade knocked Wolborg into the palace. Unfortunately for him though, Wolborg was still spinning.

"Now finish him off, Wolborg, Novae Rog"

Cold air and water vapour flowed from Wolborg's base, which enveloped Tryhorn, and a beautiful woman with long blue hair appeared. Then the woman turned round, becoming the majestic ice wolf that froze Steve's blade before Wolborg broke the ice surrounding Tryhorn, and knocked it clear of the dish.

"That was harsh"

"Let's make it official"

"The winner is Tala"

Wolborg returned to Tala's open hand, while Steve picked up Tryhorn and went back to the PPB All Starz. Tala also went and sat with the Blitzkrieg Boyz. Seeing Tala's win, Luna rushed down and flung her arms round his neck. Tala wrapped his arms round Luna's waist.

"Congratulations, Tala"

"Good luck for your battle, Luna"

"Thanks, Tala"

"Whoa, is Tala in love?"

"If his honey comes down like that, then surely he is"

After Tala and Steve had returned to their respective teams, and Luna had returned to her seat, Spencer and Michael stepped up, readily replacing them.

"With Tala's first round win, it rests on Spencer to tie it up, or can Michael ensure a decider"

"Three, two, one, let it rip"

Spencer and Michael readily launched their beyblades, both hit the ground running.

"Attack, Seaborg"

"Go, Trygle"

Seaborg and Trygle began viciously attacking each other, striking hard.

"Keep attacking, Seaborg"

Spencer is attacking aggressively; will this extreme strategy pay off"

"I won't let you take over, attack, Trygle"

Trygle suddenly went into overdrive, viciously striking Seaborg like a bear in the woods.

"Trygle is in serious overdrive, it's striking Seaborg like crazy"

"Push it back, Seaborg"

Seaborg slammed Trygle, knocking it back for yards, before striking again.

"Seaborg, multi slam"

"Oh no"

Suddenly, Seaborg ferociously attacked Trygle, knocking it around like a tennis ball.

"Trygle, full force attack"

Trygle slammed Seaborg backwards, sending it into the armoury fence.

"Seaborg, attack with everything you've got"

Seaborg went all out, striking viciously, and dealing heavy damage with every blow.

"Spencer is going all out, he's striking ferociously"

"Trygle, hang on"

Somehow, Trygle summoned enough strength and pushed Seaborg straight out of the armoury.

"No way"

"Looks like this match is mine"

"We'll see about that"

"Indeed, we will"

"Trygle, attack"

"Go, Seaborg"

Seaborg ferociously attacked Trygle, unrelentingly hammering it with heavy blows.

"Oh no"

"Finish it off"

"Not a chance, push it back, Trygle"

"Keep going, Seaborg, push it back"

"I don't think so"

"Full force slam"

"Hang on, Seaborg"

"You're going to get wet"

Trygle, out of nowhere, summoned strength, and slammed Seaborg straight into the water.

"Thanks, Michael"

"What?"

"Seaborg is a natural water spirit, so by knocking him into the water, you've helped me"

"How?"

"Watch closely, Stramolyu"

A great yellow and purple sperm whale appeared, it leaped from the water and ate Trygle.

"No"

"It's over"

Indeed, it was, for Trygle lay motionless on its side, while Seaborg leaped out of the water into Spencer's hand.

"Winner Spencer"

"No way"

"Yes way"

"With Spencer's win, the Blitzkrieg Boyz have taken it all"

Michael skulked back to the PPB All Starz, miserable because of his defeat and dismayed at the Blitzkrieg Boyz.

"Nice job, Spencer"

"Congratulations"

"The Blitzkrieg Boyz will now advance"

"We're through"

"That we are"

"Yes, I wonder who'll we face in Dubai"

"But I'm sure we'll beat them"

A buzzing came from Tala's trouser pocket, he picked up his Samsung Galaxy S10 and saw a WhatsApp message from Luna, that read: "Cinema, tomorrow eve? xxx"

Tala replied: "Sure, Luna, that would be lovely xxx"

Tala's phone buzzed again; he checked his WhatsApp. It was Luna, replying with: "It's a date? xxx"

Tala swiftly responded: "Yes, Luna xxx"

"Who were you texting, Tala?"

"Luna"

"Is she on the Death Stars?"

"Yeah"

"How can you be dating someone on an opposing team?"

"She's just a friend, Bryan"

"How can you be sure she's not trying to shift our focus?"

"Relax, I'm sure she isn't"

The Blitzkrieg Boyz and PPB All Starz made their way back, making sure they were sat in their proper seats.

"That was an epic two sessions, a huge upset for the PPB All Starz and a proud victory for the Blitzkrieg Boyz!"

"Join us tomorrow to witness Frozen Fortitude clash with the Death Stars, who will prevail, find out in tomorrow's clash?"
