Well, this is my new story, since I lost all the chapters to my old one. But I think I like this new one is somewhat better. Anyways here it is:
Chapter 01:
Chapter 02:
"3,2,1, Let it Rip!"
I crowded around the stadium, and watched closely as the 2 beys manuvered around, clashing into each other and ricocheting off, then coming back together to strike. I was really beginning to enjoy this.
"Go Pisces, Hurricane Dive!" Daniel yelled.
Mark neverously began to shake, he closed his eyes and yelled, "Nemean Leone, Guard!"
Daniel's bey bounced off Mark's and flew out of the stadium. Mark slowly opened up his eyes, and held his index finger high up in the air.
"Who's ready for the second round?! We have Johnny Johnston vs. Fred Laaarruusssooooo!"
I let out a large sigh, and walked up to the stadium, Fred had a large grin on his face.
"3,2,1, Let it Rip!" everyone yelled.
My bey sat in the center of the stadium, while Fred's circled around the edge. He still smugly looked at his Beyblade. They beys clashed together sparks flew around the stadium.
"Striker, Unicorn Smash!" Fred yelled
The bey charged towards Orochi,
"Dodge it!" I yelled.
Orochi swerved towards the left, avoiding the onslaught of attacks. He u-turned arpund the edge of the stadium.
"Striker, Barrage Mode!"
His bey zipped around in a zig-zag pattern, and smashed into mine, both beys were sent flying in the opposite direction, Orochi barely caught the edge, whereas Fred's was sent flying.
"The winner is Johnny!"
I couldn't believe that I had won. I picked up my bey and stuck out my tongue and put my middle finger and index finger into the air. I watched intently at the next few matches, the competition was really picking up.
" Next up is Johnny vs. Robert!" the announcer yelled.
"So you decided to get a bey? Too bad I'll have to destroy it." Robert chuckled.
I was to nervous to think of a suitable response. I wiped the sweat from my forehead and stepped up to the stadium.
"3,2,1, Let it Rip!"
Both beys clashed in the center of the stadium, his bey the swerved under and smashed into Orochi's giant track. He kept up his attacks, and was slowly draining my stamina. What should I do? His bey then proceeded to move to the edge of the stadium.
"Attack Orion!"
It sped towards orochi in a diagonal position. It seemed like there would be a lot of pressure on one side of the bey's tip, so if I add a little more it should lose balance and fall over. Orochi came down hard on Orion and the free-spinning tip collided with the stadium, and sent it flying to the right, and out of the stadium.
"Beginner's luck." Robert said rolling his eyes.
It was great I made it this far, but I watched my next opponent's match, he destroyed his opponent with one hit!
"It's finally time for the shop semi-finals! This will surely be an exciting match!"
"3,2,1, Let it Rip!"
My bey sat in the center, while Akio's circled around the stadium. It didn't even seem like he was paying attention.
"Finish it, Wolf Slash!"
It was all over, my Orochi was sent flying through the front window. I guess that was kinda fun.
"Enjoy your first tournament Johnny? You did surprisingly well for your first time."
"Yeah it was fun, sorry about your window." I replied.
"That's no problem, just remember to come back!"
"I will!" I said as I walked out the door.
I stepped out the door, and a glimmer of light caught the corner of my eye. It was a Beyblade!
Chapter 3:
"So you just found it?" Mark asked.
"Yeah weird right?" I replied.
Someone entered the shop and a small bell rang at the top right corner of the door. His black hair was neatly combed and hung down low on his horehead. He wore a plain white school uniform with white pants and a necklace with a dragon symbol that hung down to mid-point between his elbows and shoulders. He was immediately greeted by an eager shop manager.
"May I help you sir?" He asked.
"Just window shopping," he replied.
He peered down at my mysterious new Beyblade, and gasped in shock. He threw Mark out of the way, and he plummeted to the floor.
"Hey! Watch it!"
The stranger was sweating and his mouth hung agape. He suddenly regained composure and pulled at the collar of his shirt. His dark eyes were locked on my Beyblade with anxiousness.
"Let's have a battle, if you win you'll recieve my bey."
"And if you win?" I asked.
"I'll receive your sonic Wyvern, simple enough right?"
Sonic Wyvern? I looked down at my Beyblade and I pondered whether to accept the challenge or not.
"Deal."
"Are you serious Johnny!?" Robert protested.
I picked up my Beyblade and walked to the stadium. A large smirk appeared on the stranger's face.
"3" he said.
"2" I said.
"1, Go Shoot!" We both yelled.
We drew our beylaunchers and pulled the string. The two beyblades plopped down onto the stadium. Mine circled around the perimeter and his trailed behind me. I noticed his Beyblade beginning to wobble and make its way to the center of the stadium. The two beys clashed in the center, sparks flew out in every direction and it appeared like the two beys were "stuck" together, but smsll jolts of lightning pushed my Sonic Wyvern out to the edge. A dim sound appeared from his Beyblade. It reminded me of a blown fuse box or a cut telephone wire. The sound began to build up over time, and tiny electrical currents shot out from the Beyblade. I needed to attack before it's too late.
"Go Wyvern!"
My bey took a sharp u-turn and charged to the direction of the Beyblade. The momentum from Sonic Wyvern suddenly dropped to a snail's pace. Wyvern began to wobble and drift towards the center of the stadium
"Haha! This is my Thunder Lindwurm's special ability: Electro shocker! The static electricity of my Beyblade builds up, and the number of rotations of your Beyblade down!"
I clenched the stadium, I was in peril, what could I do!?
Chapter 4:
"Wyvern! Hurricane Slash!"
Wyvern built up speed and enormous gusts of wind formed around my Beyblade. A green light shone from the top. A large screech followed the light and an enormous green dragon shone above my Beyblade. I took a step back and marveled at it's glimmering scales.
"So you've finally brought out your bit-beast! The sacred dragon bit-beasts will all belong to me! Rise Lindwurm!"
A large yellow lizard appeared above his beyblade.
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
Both beys met in the center of the stadium, a shower sparks flew out in all directions. Lindwurm's power was beginning to overtake Wyvern and he was being pushed back. The barrages of quick attacks were beginning to mean trouble for Wyvern who couldn't hold his ground.
"Grrr, Wyvern!"
The green dragon released a massive shriek and locked his eyes on the foe. The full fury from Wyvern was just beginning to be released and Lindwurm was being thrown around without much time to recover. The stranger had a worried look on his face as he stared at the dragon before him. Wyvern's attacks became to much for him to bare. Lindwurm was being tossed around the stadium. Wyvern made a u-turn from the edge of the stadium, smashing into Lindwurm and flinging it across the stadium, and then released a barrage of attacks. The foe clenched his teeth in anger and his eyes became bloodshot. Suddenly his bey stopped and hopped out of the stadium.
"I'll get my rematch soon enough!" He yelled.
He fled the shop in rage.
Chapter 5:
"Dude, that was EPIC!" Mark yelled.
"Yeah totally!" Robert said.
"Sure whatever." I replied tiredly.
I plopped down onto a chair and sighed. I wiped the sweat from my forehead, and noticed my right hand was twitching. My head started pounding and my teeth chattered. I hazily heard the concerned voices of Mark, Robert, and the shop manager, but I couldn't makeout anything they were saying. And I was out like a light.
I felt a cold splash of water on my face. I opened up my eyes and blinked a couple of times.
"Hey! Are you okay!?" Robert asked.
"Yeah... Sort of." I replied
The truth was, my head was still pounding and I was exhausted.
"I know your still tired, but I had a crazy idea, why don't we go to BeyPark? They always have some easy opponents we can take on." Mark said.
"Yeah, sounds good to me." I replied.
"Wait just one moment, I have a surprise." Mr.Chao said.(the shop manager)
He went through a door witha. sign that read: Emloyees Only. We waited a couple of minutes before he came back through the door with a bunch of loose parts and new Beyblades.
"Go nuts Guys!"
After about 2 hours of part swapping and dicussing, we came up with Sonic Wyvern slash160 Metal Core Rubber Flat, Bandid Genbull Stamina Ring 200 Eternal Twin Ball, and Guardian Killerken Switch Attack 165 Rubber Around Sharp. I looked down at my watch, 4:27, perfect, it wasn't too late. We made our way to BeyPark.
Chapter 6:
We trotted down to BeyPark, trying to ignore Mark's shrieks of excitement.
"Dude, I'm so pumped!" Hopefully the Ancient Knights will be there." Mark eagerly yelled.
"Who exactly are the Ancient Knights?" I asked.
"They're this awesome Beyblade team, that basically rules BeyPark because of their skill. I'm pretty sure they use this technique called, sway attack, and there undefeated! Until now that is." Mark replied.
I nodded my head trying to follow what exactly he was saying.
"What exactly is sway attack?" I asked.
"Well it's when...uh, it's when you....I'm not sure really. Do you know Robert?" he replied.
Robert shrugged. We arrived at BeyPark, and sure enough they were there. They seemed to be hoing up against a team of third graders. It was a 3 v. 3 match, but only 1 member of the opposing team was still hanging on. The kid's bey was wobbling in the center of the stadium, while the 3 Ancient Knight members circled the stadium. Hmmm, the stadium. It was fairly large with three opening on the side and a large rim over the top. It was a clear gray that shook constantly. I then noticed the small third grader, he had a bowl cut with blond hair, cargo shorts, and a plain white t-shirt. He looked like ke was on the verge of peeing his pants.
"Excalibur Slash, Flaming Arrow, Charging Smash!" the three yelled.
The three met in the center of the stadium, and sent it flying over the top. They were really powerful. I noticed the team leader, Kira, staring down at me, it made me feel... weak.
We walked up to the raisable platform and I marveled at the enourmous stdium. My mouth hung slightly open. It looked so much bigger from the top. I snapped back into focus and readied my Beyblade.
"3" we yelled.
"2" they yelled.
"1, Go Shoot!" We all yelled in unison.
The beys plopped into the stadium and immediately the Ancient Knights swerved to the outter part of the stadium. Wyvern shot towards one of the beys, but the other two sped up behing Wyvern and pulled it backward. The two beys collided with Wyvern and my bey was stuck. The third member u-turned, and smashed into Wyvern sending it headed to a pocket.
"Hold your ground!" I yelled.
Wyvern came to a hault and continued to attack.
"Hurricane Slash!" I yelled.
The stadium shook and bounced around, large gusts of wind slashed out in all directions. Wyvern was headed straight towards Kira's, Dark Knight Excalibur. It was inches away when out of nowhere, Wyvern suddenly collided with Spencer's Archer saramanda and flew into a pocket. It didn't stop there.
"Twin Blade, Flaming Arrow, Holy Shield!" the three yelled.
"Rage of the Deep!" Mark and Robert yelled.
Torrents of water gushed out from the center of the stadium. Team Ancient Knight's Beyblades were swept up by the water. Archer Saramanda and Guardian Goreim were forced out of the stadium.
"Holy Sword of Justice!" Kira yelled.
An enormous wave of light cut throught the water and made its way to the center. Both Marl and Robert were sent flying out of the stadium.
"Darn, we almost had them." Robert said
"We've just got to keep practicing." I replied.
"Yeah whoever got better sitting around moping!" Mark said.
Just then, the shop manager busted into our conversation and pulled out a flyer.
"Check it out guys." he said.
We stared down at the flyer. It was about the WBBA's training camp.
"Sounds Awesome!" Robert said.
"Totally, I replied.
"Well its settled, we'll leave for the camp tomorrow!" he said.
Chapter 7:
~The next day
Bags in hand, I walked into the Beyshop, along with Robert two other bladers were already there, it looks like we're waiting on Mark, figures. I recognized one of the two bladers, he was the guy I faced in the semi-finals in the tournament 2 weeks ago. The other I hadn't recognized, she wore a black hoodie that covered most of her face, she wore torn jeans, and solid black shoes, she looked very shy.
"It looks like we're just waiting on Mark now, let's start loading up the bags." the shop manager said.
"Wait!" Mark yelled.
He busted through the door, and collapsed on the ground, out of breath.
"I slept in late, but I'm here now." he said.
"Looks like we're ready to go." the shop manager said
All six of us boarded the rental van. For the most part it was a silent ride, except for Mark's occasional outbursts.
"Are we there yet!?" he would yell.
We eventually arrived at the WBBA, and we were greeted by a woman in what appeared to be wearing a flight attendant costume.
"Welcome!" she said.
The shop manager proceeded by taking our bags out of the trunk.
"Oh it's not that kind of camp sir, you won't be needing bags." she said.
"What kind of camp is it then?" Robert asked.
"You will be informed in do time."
The gates opened up with a *creek* and we were assigned a plane number. We walked inside the massive dome and six planes were lined up in two rows of three. We boarded plane number four and awaited instructions from the captain, who appeared to be the new Blader DJ.
"Yo!!! This camp will be an obstacle to test your strength, endurance, and skill. I'm sure you will be quite surprised, because this isn't your ordinary Summer Soccer Camp, it's an island. Where you fight until you're eliminated. The way to be eliminated is to lose one of our BeyBattles, and remember the only rule is, that there are no rules. You can team up with your friends to battle one blader. Three versus one, six versus two, maybe even fifty to one, if you're that desperate. Okay we will be arriving at the island momentarily, so find the parachutes located above your seats. Be mindful where you land, we can't help you if you drift off to sea!" Blader DJ said.
A large door opened up on the side of the plane, and air rushed in. Was I really going to do this? I let out a sigh and strapped on my parachute and stared down at the island filled with lush green trees, small mountains, and mysteries.
Chapter 8:
I closed my eyes, and took a deep breath, and peered over the edge of the plane. I was pushed out by some kid.
"AAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!" I yelled.
The parachute opened up. I landed softly on the on the shores, and the water brushed up against my shoes. I looked up and noticed the hundreds of parachutes, I decided to run before I was challenged at the beginning. I climbed up a small, yet bulky tree. I leaned back and waited.
I heard the intense sound of metal on metal clashing. I realized I had dozed off and my feet were asleep. The contest was already in full-swing. I jumped down from the tree and looked around, the coast was clear.
"There are now 950 competitors left!" said Blader DJ.
Wow 50 gone already. I took a step, and immediately a whirlwing of moist dirt shot out and I covered my eyes. I pulled out my bey and launcher, and pulled the ripcord. I got a look at my opponent, he had red hair and a very intimidating look on his face.
Bursts of flames shot out from the bey, and caught the edge of my sleeve. I immediately batted it down.
"Attack Wyvern!" I yelled.
A green dragon arose, and collided with the opponent's phoenix. The intense gusts of wind pushed me back. I looked up and saw that Wyvern was being heavily overpowered. Wyvern
zig-zagged to the forest. My opponent wasn't far behind. Wyvern was carefull moving around, whereas the other bey, smashed through the trees and rocks. After 10 minutes of sprinting through the woods my opponent was stopped by two bladers, this bought me some time. He made quick work of his opponents.
"Numbers 922 and 921 have been eliminated!" yelled Blader DJ.
I ran behind a tree, and inhaled and exhaled. I closed my eyes, and suddenly felt a small cut on my right cheek, and was met by my opponent. How did he find me so fast!? His bey rebounded from the ground and catapulted towards me. I moved out of the way. I continued running and I eventually reached a small river. Wyvern hopped over the rocks and I did the same. The phoenix sliced through the water. I was tired, drenched in sweat, out of breath, but I continued to push through. I was looking for a way to escape this awful nightmare. I came upon a small desert, and stopped. I turned and faced my opponent. Time to fight back.
"Wyvern Hurricane Slash!" I yelled.
A torrent of sand covered my opponent, I knew this wouldn't defeat him, so I took of North-West and collapsed in front of a lake. I splashed myself with water from the lake. Three bladers approached me and pulled out their launchers. What did I get myself into?
Chapter 9:
The three bladers launched their beys toward me. I hastily put Wyvern on my launcher and readied myself, but in a moment's notice the three were smashed into the sky by a white light. The mysterious blader hopped down from a tree. Then tripped over his untied shoelaces. He wiped the dirt from his face, and it was Mark!
"Yo!" he said.
"Did you get a new Beyblade?" I asked.
"Yeah, sweet right? It was in this treasure chest I tripped over a while back, after Robert got eliminated." he replied.
"Oh! Hey Johnny there's soemthing I've been meaning to ask you." he said.
"Are you ready for our rematch!?" he asked.
I nod and give a hint of a smile.
"3,2,1, Go Shoot!!!" we yell.
Byakko(his new tiger-themed Beyblade) comes in with a powerful attack, which is quickly avoided by Wyvern. I loop around and clash into his bey. My attack is quickly repelled and pushed back. How good is his new Beyblade? A series of attacks were inflicted to Wyvern. I could see bits of the Crystal Wheel chipping away.
"Grrr, Slash 160! Draco Meteor Claw!" I yell.
"Attack Byakko, Tiger Claw!" Mark yells.
A large white tiger and an enormous green dragon appeared from our Beyblades. The same green dragon I had seen in previous battles. My eyes were locked on his. It let out an immense "Roar". The two beasts clashed. The ground shook, dark clouds formed in the sky, and an intesnse wind picked up as the two continued their on-slaught.
"Hurricane Slash!" I yell.
"Tiger Claw!" Mark yells.
The intense blast blew me back and I slid on the rough terrain. I coughed becuase of the dust that crowded around me. I winced a few times, and got back up on my feet. The dust had settled and a large crater had formed, and surprisingly both beys were still spinning, but barely, and the two beasts had vanished. Mark got up and rubbed his head and peered down at the crater. Mark's Byakko began to slowly turn on it's side and stop spinning.
"Pssshh, I'll get you next time." he said.
"Number 864 has now been eliminated! Only 513 competitors remain!" yelled Blader DJ.
Chapter 10
Hours passed, blader after blader I fought, dangerous twists and turns led to unpredictable close calls, until the time finally came.
"We are now down to the final fifteen!"
The face of the final fifteen flashed on the screen of the large blimp.
"The finalists are Jack Wong, Kai Yumizaki, Jason Smith, Andrew Langston , Johnny Johnston, Max Rivera, Hibiki Tomo, Haruko Tomo, Jannette Walker, Ibuki Takori, Shin Sakomori, .... Ocard Rednuht, Samuel Thompson, Akio Yoshima, and Kurai Ryu!"
I recognized the last two bladers, because they rode with us to the "camp". The third to last was the mystrious blader who I fought at the Beyshop with the dragon beyblade.
"Everyone please report to the Zero-G stadium atop the mountain."
I eventually arrived at the large mountain.
"Is everyone ready for this year's tournament?!"
The crowd of eliminated bladers cheered.
"3,2,1, Go Shoot!"
Chapter 11
Chapter 12
~The next day at the Beyshop
"There's a letter for the three of you from the WBBA's Technological Institutes. They want to introduce new up and coming bladers into the events the world of Beyblade has to offer." said the Shop Manger.
"When do we go?" I asked.
"Tomorrow!" he replied.
~The next day at Technological Institutes
"Welcome! I will show you into the meeting hall for a very important announcement."
We walked into the large room, it was packed with bladers from all across the world. There were numerous excited whispers and murmurs throughout the visitors; until a semi-old man broke the silence by trying gather everyone's attention.
"As you all may know the annual Beypoint Contest is coming up soon, and we are most pleased to announce a new twist."
"The Beypoint Contest in the past have been battled using the standard format. But this year it will be conducted in Zero-G format! Also, instead of a tournament for the top 20 contenders, this year we will have the top 25 teams of 4 will imstead compete in the Beyblade Battle Circuit!"
"Now that you've heard that, we will introduce a new system of blading that will allow more competition than ever before. Of course this is only optional, but anyone who wishes to take part in these prototyped Beyblades please follow me."
Chapter 13: The unlucky chapter
~The next day at the BeyShop
"There's a letter for the three of you from the head of the WBBA's Technological Institutes. They want to introduce the new events in the world of Beyblade and test the skills you possess." the shop manager said.
"When do we go? I asked.
"Tomorrow" he replied.
~The next day
"Welcome! I will show you into the meeting hall for a very important announcement."
We walked into the large room, it was packed with people from across the world. There were numerous whispers and murmurs until a man walked through a door and stepped on stage. The crowd silenced.
"As you all may know, the annual Beypoint Contest is coming up soon, and we are most pleased to announce a new twist. The Beypoint Contests held in the past have all been standard format, but this year it will be in Zero-G! Also, a team of 4 bladers will compete together in a chance to enter the Beyblade Fight Circuit! It has a new set of rules which won't be mentioned. This isn't all we have to announce. Everyone please follow me into the next room." the old man said.
We walked down a corridor with many rooms with plexiglass windows that revealed lots of machines and bladers being observed by people in crisp, white coats. We soon entered a room, that had a very large machine with many wires connected to a a smaller machine that looked like an advanced 3D printer.
One of the scientists called up a blader. The scientist asked for the kid's Beyblade. He put ot on a flat surface connected to the large machine. A green ray scanned the Beyblade. A couple of minutes passed and the second machine revealed a bew Beyblade. It was very similair to the HMS series of Beyblade, except the track was seperate from the tip.
I was eventually called up the same process was done to my Beyblade. A few miuntes passed and out came my new Bey. It had a dragon insignia. The first part of the metal wheel was completely metal. It was green. The second part was metal as well, but metallic gray in color. The track resembled that of Slash Riger MS' but was of a 150 height. The track was the same as before, but twisted clockwise onto the track. Same did the track to the metal wheel.
After everyone recieved a modified Beyblade we entered another room with standard Beyblade dishes scattered in the room. We were given a Beypoint device once we entered. The old man told us about a team tournament as a way to kick-off the Beypoint contest. Our team was made up of Akio, Me, Kurai, and Mark.
"The battles will be best 2 out of 3 and the victors will recieve 25 points each."
Akio was first up for our team.
"3, 2, 1 Go Shoot!"
Akio's bey struggled to keep a straight pattern as it zipped around the stadium uncontrollably. His opponent continued to wait out the battle in the center. Despite Akio's early control problems, he eventually took control over his Beyblade.
"Wolf Crusher!!!" he yelled.
His Bit-Beast emerged; flying straight towards his opponent's Beyblade. It was sent out of the stadium.
I stepped up to the dish.
"3, 2, 1, Go shoot!"
I had worse problems than Akio! Wyvern was being tossed around by my opponent's enormous Beyblade. If I didn't do something quick my Bey was going to be nothing more than scrap metal.
"Bull Rampage!" he yelled.
Wyvern was sent into the air.
"Wyvern!" I yelled.
My bit-Beast appeared, instead of a normal green dragon; Wyvern had burning green flames all on him. Wyvern came down ina spiral of green fire. A cloud of dust covered the stadium. The dust eventually settled and both beys had stopped in the center. Normal beys would be destroyed after taking a hit like that, but the improved Beyblades were far better. It was up to Ryukai for a tie-breaker.
"3, 2, 1, Go Shoot!
Her launch was weak. It slowly eased into the center of the stadium. Her opponent flew around the edge.
"Dracofly! Wingbeat Blast!" he yelled.
His bey flew into the air. The Bit-Beast emerged and came raining down. Ryukai's Bit-Beast shown forth.
"Scrreeeeeecchhhh" yelled Fairy Drago.
Dracofly was consumed in a veil of light.
As the battles progressed our control over our Beyblades increased, but so did the skill levels of our opponents.
"We have reached our final two teams. Instead of having a measly 25 point reward to the victors. Each blader will recieve 500!!! But only if a representative from one of the teams can defeat a representative of our own."
We agreed that Akio should be the one to do it, considering his power and agressive style of battling, plus Kurai was too frightened.
"Okay, you have all agreed to a representative." the old man said.
"Taichi! Your opponents' await." the old man said.
What appeared to be a 14-year old kid stepped through a door. He wore specialized mechanics on almost all parts of his body. The red device on his eye scanned both representatives beys.
"Hmm, 88(Akio) and 82(Japanese representative), pretty weak." he said.
"Oh yeah what's your power level buddy?!" Mark asked.
"There hasn't been a device made to calculate the power of my Beyblade. But If I had to guess I'd say it exceeds 200." he replied.
Well, what do you think?
Chapter 01:
Spoiler (Click to View)
"What's Beyblade?" I asked, unaware of the sour looks I was about to be given.
The entire class turned around in there seats, and gave me the "What is wrong with you" look. I sunk down low in my seat.
"How do you not know what Beyblade is Johnny?" Robert asked.
"I'm not so much into lame hobbies, I guess."
"Beyblade is not some lame hobbie, it's an amazing thrill ride filled with excitement and suspense!" said another kid.
"Right." I replied, rolling my eyes.
Just then the final bell rang, amd summer had officially started. i packed my books up into my backpack, and imagined what I could do over the summer, I was looking forward to those hours of soaking in the sun, and the giant amusement parks, I can smell the concession stand now. I kept walking thinking of the exciting things I could do over the summer. I overheard Joey, Robert, and Mark, talking about a Beyblade tournament in a few minutes. I figured I'd listen in, and maybe check out what all the hype is with this, amazing thrill ride filled with excitement.
"You're going to the shop tournament right?"
"Dude, of course, I'm so going to win!"
The three ran towards fifth street, and I decided I should follow them.
I stepped into the store, there were 25 or so kids all huddled around, swapping parts, or practicing launches. I stepped up to the front desk, there was a girl, maybe a year or 2 older than I was, she sat on a stool behind the counter, and when she noticed I was standing there she put down her magazine and stood up.
"How may I help you?" she asked.
"I'm here for this tournament, but the thing is I don't have a Beyblade."
"That's no problem, we can give you one of the new shipment of Shogun Steel Beyblades. Just sign your name there, and we can sign you up for the tournament."
"Okay," I signed the paper she handed me, and recieved a very heavy beyblade, with a sea dragon-like design on it.
"That's Leviathin Orochi, a very clanky defensive-type Beyblade, by the way, best of luck in the tournament." she said.
I marveled at it, it did look rather intriguing. The shop manager stood up on the pedestal in the center of the shop. Everyone crowded around, and waited for him to speak. He cleared his throat and said,
"Now who's ready to start the tournament!?"
The entire class turned around in there seats, and gave me the "What is wrong with you" look. I sunk down low in my seat.
"How do you not know what Beyblade is Johnny?" Robert asked.
"I'm not so much into lame hobbies, I guess."

"3,2,1, Let it Rip!"
I crowded around the stadium, and watched closely as the 2 beys manuvered around, clashing into each other and ricocheting off, then coming back together to strike. I was really beginning to enjoy this.
"Go Pisces, Hurricane Dive!" Daniel yelled.
Mark neverously began to shake, he closed his eyes and yelled, "Nemean Leone, Guard!"
Daniel's bey bounced off Mark's and flew out of the stadium. Mark slowly opened up his eyes, and held his index finger high up in the air.
"Who's ready for the second round?! We have Johnny Johnston vs. Fred Laaarruusssooooo!"
I let out a large sigh, and walked up to the stadium, Fred had a large grin on his face.
"3,2,1, Let it Rip!" everyone yelled.
My bey sat in the center of the stadium, while Fred's circled around the edge. He still smugly looked at his Beyblade. They beys clashed together sparks flew around the stadium.
"Striker, Unicorn Smash!" Fred yelled
The bey charged towards Orochi,
"Dodge it!" I yelled.
Orochi swerved towards the left, avoiding the onslaught of attacks. He u-turned arpund the edge of the stadium.
"Striker, Barrage Mode!"
His bey zipped around in a zig-zag pattern, and smashed into mine, both beys were sent flying in the opposite direction, Orochi barely caught the edge, whereas Fred's was sent flying.
"The winner is Johnny!"
I couldn't believe that I had won. I picked up my bey and stuck out my tongue and put my middle finger and index finger into the air. I watched intently at the next few matches, the competition was really picking up.
" Next up is Johnny vs. Robert!" the announcer yelled.
"So you decided to get a bey? Too bad I'll have to destroy it." Robert chuckled.
I was to nervous to think of a suitable response. I wiped the sweat from my forehead and stepped up to the stadium.
"3,2,1, Let it Rip!"
Both beys clashed in the center of the stadium, his bey the swerved under and smashed into Orochi's giant track. He kept up his attacks, and was slowly draining my stamina. What should I do? His bey then proceeded to move to the edge of the stadium.
"Attack Orion!"
It sped towards orochi in a diagonal position. It seemed like there would be a lot of pressure on one side of the bey's tip, so if I add a little more it should lose balance and fall over. Orochi came down hard on Orion and the free-spinning tip collided with the stadium, and sent it flying to the right, and out of the stadium.
"Beginner's luck." Robert said rolling his eyes.
It was great I made it this far, but I watched my next opponent's match, he destroyed his opponent with one hit!
"It's finally time for the shop semi-finals! This will surely be an exciting match!"
"3,2,1, Let it Rip!"
My bey sat in the center, while Akio's circled around the stadium. It didn't even seem like he was paying attention.
"Finish it, Wolf Slash!"
It was all over, my Orochi was sent flying through the front window. I guess that was kinda fun.
"Enjoy your first tournament Johnny? You did surprisingly well for your first time."
"Yeah it was fun, sorry about your window." I replied.
"That's no problem, just remember to come back!"
"I will!" I said as I walked out the door.
I stepped out the door, and a glimmer of light caught the corner of my eye. It was a Beyblade!
Spoiler (Click to View)
"So you just found it?" Mark asked.
"Yeah weird right?" I replied.
Someone entered the shop and a small bell rang at the top right corner of the door. His black hair was neatly combed and hung down low on his horehead. He wore a plain white school uniform with white pants and a necklace with a dragon symbol that hung down to mid-point between his elbows and shoulders. He was immediately greeted by an eager shop manager.
"May I help you sir?" He asked.
"Just window shopping," he replied.
He peered down at my mysterious new Beyblade, and gasped in shock. He threw Mark out of the way, and he plummeted to the floor.
"Hey! Watch it!"
The stranger was sweating and his mouth hung agape. He suddenly regained composure and pulled at the collar of his shirt. His dark eyes were locked on my Beyblade with anxiousness.
"Let's have a battle, if you win you'll recieve my bey."
"And if you win?" I asked.
"I'll receive your sonic Wyvern, simple enough right?"
Sonic Wyvern? I looked down at my Beyblade and I pondered whether to accept the challenge or not.
"Deal."
"Are you serious Johnny!?" Robert protested.
I picked up my Beyblade and walked to the stadium. A large smirk appeared on the stranger's face.
"3" he said.
"2" I said.
"1, Go Shoot!" We both yelled.
We drew our beylaunchers and pulled the string. The two beyblades plopped down onto the stadium. Mine circled around the perimeter and his trailed behind me. I noticed his Beyblade beginning to wobble and make its way to the center of the stadium. The two beys clashed in the center, sparks flew out in every direction and it appeared like the two beys were "stuck" together, but smsll jolts of lightning pushed my Sonic Wyvern out to the edge. A dim sound appeared from his Beyblade. It reminded me of a blown fuse box or a cut telephone wire. The sound began to build up over time, and tiny electrical currents shot out from the Beyblade. I needed to attack before it's too late.
"Go Wyvern!"
My bey took a sharp u-turn and charged to the direction of the Beyblade. The momentum from Sonic Wyvern suddenly dropped to a snail's pace. Wyvern began to wobble and drift towards the center of the stadium
"Haha! This is my Thunder Lindwurm's special ability: Electro shocker! The static electricity of my Beyblade builds up, and the number of rotations of your Beyblade down!"
I clenched the stadium, I was in peril, what could I do!?
Spoiler (Click to View)
"Wyvern! Hurricane Slash!"
Wyvern built up speed and enormous gusts of wind formed around my Beyblade. A green light shone from the top. A large screech followed the light and an enormous green dragon shone above my Beyblade. I took a step back and marveled at it's glimmering scales.
"So you've finally brought out your bit-beast! The sacred dragon bit-beasts will all belong to me! Rise Lindwurm!"
A large yellow lizard appeared above his beyblade.
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
Both beys met in the center of the stadium, a shower sparks flew out in all directions. Lindwurm's power was beginning to overtake Wyvern and he was being pushed back. The barrages of quick attacks were beginning to mean trouble for Wyvern who couldn't hold his ground.
"Grrr, Wyvern!"
The green dragon released a massive shriek and locked his eyes on the foe. The full fury from Wyvern was just beginning to be released and Lindwurm was being thrown around without much time to recover. The stranger had a worried look on his face as he stared at the dragon before him. Wyvern's attacks became to much for him to bare. Lindwurm was being tossed around the stadium. Wyvern made a u-turn from the edge of the stadium, smashing into Lindwurm and flinging it across the stadium, and then released a barrage of attacks. The foe clenched his teeth in anger and his eyes became bloodshot. Suddenly his bey stopped and hopped out of the stadium.
"I'll get my rematch soon enough!" He yelled.
He fled the shop in rage.

"Dude, that was EPIC!" Mark yelled.
"Yeah totally!" Robert said.
"Sure whatever." I replied tiredly.
I plopped down onto a chair and sighed. I wiped the sweat from my forehead, and noticed my right hand was twitching. My head started pounding and my teeth chattered. I hazily heard the concerned voices of Mark, Robert, and the shop manager, but I couldn't makeout anything they were saying. And I was out like a light.
I felt a cold splash of water on my face. I opened up my eyes and blinked a couple of times.
"Hey! Are you okay!?" Robert asked.
"Yeah... Sort of." I replied
The truth was, my head was still pounding and I was exhausted.
"I know your still tired, but I had a crazy idea, why don't we go to BeyPark? They always have some easy opponents we can take on." Mark said.
"Yeah, sounds good to me." I replied.
"Wait just one moment, I have a surprise." Mr.Chao said.(the shop manager)
He went through a door witha. sign that read: Emloyees Only. We waited a couple of minutes before he came back through the door with a bunch of loose parts and new Beyblades.
"Go nuts Guys!"
After about 2 hours of part swapping and dicussing, we came up with Sonic Wyvern slash160 Metal Core Rubber Flat, Bandid Genbull Stamina Ring 200 Eternal Twin Ball, and Guardian Killerken Switch Attack 165 Rubber Around Sharp. I looked down at my watch, 4:27, perfect, it wasn't too late. We made our way to BeyPark.
Spoiler (Click to View)
We trotted down to BeyPark, trying to ignore Mark's shrieks of excitement.
"Dude, I'm so pumped!" Hopefully the Ancient Knights will be there." Mark eagerly yelled.
"Who exactly are the Ancient Knights?" I asked.
"They're this awesome Beyblade team, that basically rules BeyPark because of their skill. I'm pretty sure they use this technique called, sway attack, and there undefeated! Until now that is." Mark replied.
I nodded my head trying to follow what exactly he was saying.
"What exactly is sway attack?" I asked.
"Well it's when...uh, it's when you....I'm not sure really. Do you know Robert?" he replied.
Robert shrugged. We arrived at BeyPark, and sure enough they were there. They seemed to be hoing up against a team of third graders. It was a 3 v. 3 match, but only 1 member of the opposing team was still hanging on. The kid's bey was wobbling in the center of the stadium, while the 3 Ancient Knight members circled the stadium. Hmmm, the stadium. It was fairly large with three opening on the side and a large rim over the top. It was a clear gray that shook constantly. I then noticed the small third grader, he had a bowl cut with blond hair, cargo shorts, and a plain white t-shirt. He looked like ke was on the verge of peeing his pants.
"Excalibur Slash, Flaming Arrow, Charging Smash!" the three yelled.
The three met in the center of the stadium, and sent it flying over the top. They were really powerful. I noticed the team leader, Kira, staring down at me, it made me feel... weak.
We walked up to the raisable platform and I marveled at the enourmous stdium. My mouth hung slightly open. It looked so much bigger from the top. I snapped back into focus and readied my Beyblade.
"3" we yelled.
"2" they yelled.
"1, Go Shoot!" We all yelled in unison.
The beys plopped into the stadium and immediately the Ancient Knights swerved to the outter part of the stadium. Wyvern shot towards one of the beys, but the other two sped up behing Wyvern and pulled it backward. The two beys collided with Wyvern and my bey was stuck. The third member u-turned, and smashed into Wyvern sending it headed to a pocket.
"Hold your ground!" I yelled.
Wyvern came to a hault and continued to attack.
"Hurricane Slash!" I yelled.
The stadium shook and bounced around, large gusts of wind slashed out in all directions. Wyvern was headed straight towards Kira's, Dark Knight Excalibur. It was inches away when out of nowhere, Wyvern suddenly collided with Spencer's Archer saramanda and flew into a pocket. It didn't stop there.
"Twin Blade, Flaming Arrow, Holy Shield!" the three yelled.
"Rage of the Deep!" Mark and Robert yelled.
Torrents of water gushed out from the center of the stadium. Team Ancient Knight's Beyblades were swept up by the water. Archer Saramanda and Guardian Goreim were forced out of the stadium.
"Holy Sword of Justice!" Kira yelled.
An enormous wave of light cut throught the water and made its way to the center. Both Marl and Robert were sent flying out of the stadium.
"Darn, we almost had them." Robert said
"We've just got to keep practicing." I replied.
"Yeah whoever got better sitting around moping!" Mark said.
Just then, the shop manager busted into our conversation and pulled out a flyer.
"Check it out guys." he said.
We stared down at the flyer. It was about the WBBA's training camp.
"Sounds Awesome!" Robert said.
"Totally, I replied.
"Well its settled, we'll leave for the camp tomorrow!" he said.

~The next day
Bags in hand, I walked into the Beyshop, along with Robert two other bladers were already there, it looks like we're waiting on Mark, figures. I recognized one of the two bladers, he was the guy I faced in the semi-finals in the tournament 2 weeks ago. The other I hadn't recognized, she wore a black hoodie that covered most of her face, she wore torn jeans, and solid black shoes, she looked very shy.
"It looks like we're just waiting on Mark now, let's start loading up the bags." the shop manager said.
"Wait!" Mark yelled.
He busted through the door, and collapsed on the ground, out of breath.
"I slept in late, but I'm here now." he said.
"Looks like we're ready to go." the shop manager said
All six of us boarded the rental van. For the most part it was a silent ride, except for Mark's occasional outbursts.
"Are we there yet!?" he would yell.
We eventually arrived at the WBBA, and we were greeted by a woman in what appeared to be wearing a flight attendant costume.
"Welcome!" she said.
The shop manager proceeded by taking our bags out of the trunk.
"Oh it's not that kind of camp sir, you won't be needing bags." she said.
"What kind of camp is it then?" Robert asked.
"You will be informed in do time."
The gates opened up with a *creek* and we were assigned a plane number. We walked inside the massive dome and six planes were lined up in two rows of three. We boarded plane number four and awaited instructions from the captain, who appeared to be the new Blader DJ.
"Yo!!! This camp will be an obstacle to test your strength, endurance, and skill. I'm sure you will be quite surprised, because this isn't your ordinary Summer Soccer Camp, it's an island. Where you fight until you're eliminated. The way to be eliminated is to lose one of our BeyBattles, and remember the only rule is, that there are no rules. You can team up with your friends to battle one blader. Three versus one, six versus two, maybe even fifty to one, if you're that desperate. Okay we will be arriving at the island momentarily, so find the parachutes located above your seats. Be mindful where you land, we can't help you if you drift off to sea!" Blader DJ said.
A large door opened up on the side of the plane, and air rushed in. Was I really going to do this? I let out a sigh and strapped on my parachute and stared down at the island filled with lush green trees, small mountains, and mysteries.
Spoiler (Click to View)
I closed my eyes, and took a deep breath, and peered over the edge of the plane. I was pushed out by some kid.
"AAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!" I yelled.
The parachute opened up. I landed softly on the on the shores, and the water brushed up against my shoes. I looked up and noticed the hundreds of parachutes, I decided to run before I was challenged at the beginning. I climbed up a small, yet bulky tree. I leaned back and waited.
I heard the intense sound of metal on metal clashing. I realized I had dozed off and my feet were asleep. The contest was already in full-swing. I jumped down from the tree and looked around, the coast was clear.
"There are now 950 competitors left!" said Blader DJ.
Wow 50 gone already. I took a step, and immediately a whirlwing of moist dirt shot out and I covered my eyes. I pulled out my bey and launcher, and pulled the ripcord. I got a look at my opponent, he had red hair and a very intimidating look on his face.
Bursts of flames shot out from the bey, and caught the edge of my sleeve. I immediately batted it down.
"Attack Wyvern!" I yelled.
A green dragon arose, and collided with the opponent's phoenix. The intense gusts of wind pushed me back. I looked up and saw that Wyvern was being heavily overpowered. Wyvern
zig-zagged to the forest. My opponent wasn't far behind. Wyvern was carefull moving around, whereas the other bey, smashed through the trees and rocks. After 10 minutes of sprinting through the woods my opponent was stopped by two bladers, this bought me some time. He made quick work of his opponents.
"Numbers 922 and 921 have been eliminated!" yelled Blader DJ.
I ran behind a tree, and inhaled and exhaled. I closed my eyes, and suddenly felt a small cut on my right cheek, and was met by my opponent. How did he find me so fast!? His bey rebounded from the ground and catapulted towards me. I moved out of the way. I continued running and I eventually reached a small river. Wyvern hopped over the rocks and I did the same. The phoenix sliced through the water. I was tired, drenched in sweat, out of breath, but I continued to push through. I was looking for a way to escape this awful nightmare. I came upon a small desert, and stopped. I turned and faced my opponent. Time to fight back.
"Wyvern Hurricane Slash!" I yelled.
A torrent of sand covered my opponent, I knew this wouldn't defeat him, so I took of North-West and collapsed in front of a lake. I splashed myself with water from the lake. Three bladers approached me and pulled out their launchers. What did I get myself into?
Spoiler (Click to View)
The three bladers launched their beys toward me. I hastily put Wyvern on my launcher and readied myself, but in a moment's notice the three were smashed into the sky by a white light. The mysterious blader hopped down from a tree. Then tripped over his untied shoelaces. He wiped the dirt from his face, and it was Mark!
"Yo!" he said.
"Did you get a new Beyblade?" I asked.
"Yeah, sweet right? It was in this treasure chest I tripped over a while back, after Robert got eliminated." he replied.
"Oh! Hey Johnny there's soemthing I've been meaning to ask you." he said.
"Are you ready for our rematch!?" he asked.
I nod and give a hint of a smile.
"3,2,1, Go Shoot!!!" we yell.
Byakko(his new tiger-themed Beyblade) comes in with a powerful attack, which is quickly avoided by Wyvern. I loop around and clash into his bey. My attack is quickly repelled and pushed back. How good is his new Beyblade? A series of attacks were inflicted to Wyvern. I could see bits of the Crystal Wheel chipping away.
"Grrr, Slash 160! Draco Meteor Claw!" I yell.
"Attack Byakko, Tiger Claw!" Mark yells.
A large white tiger and an enormous green dragon appeared from our Beyblades. The same green dragon I had seen in previous battles. My eyes were locked on his. It let out an immense "Roar". The two beasts clashed. The ground shook, dark clouds formed in the sky, and an intesnse wind picked up as the two continued their on-slaught.
"Hurricane Slash!" I yell.
"Tiger Claw!" Mark yells.
The intense blast blew me back and I slid on the rough terrain. I coughed becuase of the dust that crowded around me. I winced a few times, and got back up on my feet. The dust had settled and a large crater had formed, and surprisingly both beys were still spinning, but barely, and the two beasts had vanished. Mark got up and rubbed his head and peered down at the crater. Mark's Byakko began to slowly turn on it's side and stop spinning.
"Pssshh, I'll get you next time." he said.
"Number 864 has now been eliminated! Only 513 competitors remain!" yelled Blader DJ.
Spoiler (Click to View)
Hours passed, blader after blader I fought, dangerous twists and turns led to unpredictable close calls, until the time finally came.
"We are now down to the final fifteen!"
The face of the final fifteen flashed on the screen of the large blimp.
"The finalists are Jack Wong, Kai Yumizaki, Jason Smith, Andrew Langston , Johnny Johnston, Max Rivera, Hibiki Tomo, Haruko Tomo, Jannette Walker, Ibuki Takori, Shin Sakomori, .... Ocard Rednuht, Samuel Thompson, Akio Yoshima, and Kurai Ryu!"
I recognized the last two bladers, because they rode with us to the "camp". The third to last was the mystrious blader who I fought at the Beyshop with the dragon beyblade.
"Everyone please report to the Zero-G stadium atop the mountain."
I eventually arrived at the large mountain.
"Is everyone ready for this year's tournament?!"
The crowd of eliminated bladers cheered.
"3,2,1, Go Shoot!"
Spoiler (Click to View)
I took a deep, exasperated sigh and readied my Beyblade on my launcher.
"3,2,1, Go Shoot!" we yelled.
My bey circled around the edge of the stadium, but not too close to the edge, so that I wouldn't be KO'd by unexpected attacks. Kai and Samuel were following close behind me. I commanded my bey to Zig-Zag through the center of the stadium. Wyvern maneuvered around apposing Beyblades, Kai was still following, but Samuel had collided with another Beyblade. I clenched my fists while trying to think of a way out. I commanded Wyvern to tilt on its side. The tip collided with the side of the stadium and was sent flying into the air. It landed atop the stadium!
"Phantom Hurricane!" I yelled.
Six Beybaldes were lifted out of the stadium by the immense hurricane and were slung out. Only eight Beys remained(Shin Sakomori was eliminated by Akio). Wyvern fell back into the stadium; stamina drained.
Wyvern had gathered a lot of attention. He was attacked by the Tomo twins. Wyvern was completely helpless.
"Electro Shock!" Ocard yelled.
The two Beybaldes were consumed by an electric shockwave. All that remained were chunks of metal and pieces of plastic.
A yellow lizard-like beast emerged feom his Beyblade. It advanced towards Wyvern. A green dragon emerged feom my Beyblade. The two beasts collided. A series of slashes and tail whips came from his dragon. Wyvern's wings released a gust of air, that pushed back my opponent's bit-beast. Jolts of electricity erupted from the claws of the beast. It slashed across the chest of Wyvern.
"Roooooaaaaarrrrrrrrr!!!" Wyvern yelled.
Wyvern soared high into the air. An enormous twister whipped up. The gusts sent other Beys flying. One bey was sliced in half! The twister formed around teh electric dragon. The gusts slashed at the dragon. Wyvern flew down from the top of the twister and smashed into Ocard's bit-beast. The shockwave nearly knowcked a few bladers off the mountain. I struggled to hang onto the edge. I climbed up the mountainside. All that remained in the stadium was Akio's Beyblade and Kurai's Beyblade. Ocard was nowhere to be seen, neither was his Beyblade. I sunk to my knees and noticed my Bey. It was chipped and cracked. I walked down the steps of the mountainside.
Kurai fought viligently to withstand the immense attacks from Akio.
"Ninja Fairy Drago! Shining Light of Destrustion!"
I finally got a glimpse of her Beyblade. It was a dragon like mine, but was divine and majestic. Akio attempted a counter-attack, but was hopelessly covered in a blinding light, and stopped in the center of the stadium.
"There you have it folks! Our winner is Kurai Ryu!" Blader DJ yelled.
"3,2,1, Go Shoot!" we yelled.

~The next day at the Beyshop
"There's a letter for the three of you from the WBBA's Technological Institutes. They want to introduce new up and coming bladers into the events the world of Beyblade has to offer." said the Shop Manger.
"When do we go?" I asked.
"Tomorrow!" he replied.
~The next day at Technological Institutes
"Welcome! I will show you into the meeting hall for a very important announcement."
We walked into the large room, it was packed with bladers from all across the world. There were numerous excited whispers and murmurs throughout the visitors; until a semi-old man broke the silence by trying gather everyone's attention.
"As you all may know the annual Beypoint Contest is coming up soon, and we are most pleased to announce a new twist."
"The Beypoint Contest in the past have been battled using the standard format. But this year it will be conducted in Zero-G format! Also, instead of a tournament for the top 20 contenders, this year we will have the top 25 teams of 4 will imstead compete in the Beyblade Battle Circuit!"
"Now that you've heard that, we will introduce a new system of blading that will allow more competition than ever before. Of course this is only optional, but anyone who wishes to take part in these prototyped Beyblades please follow me."

~The next day at the BeyShop
"There's a letter for the three of you from the head of the WBBA's Technological Institutes. They want to introduce the new events in the world of Beyblade and test the skills you possess." the shop manager said.
"When do we go? I asked.
"Tomorrow" he replied.
~The next day
"Welcome! I will show you into the meeting hall for a very important announcement."
We walked into the large room, it was packed with people from across the world. There were numerous whispers and murmurs until a man walked through a door and stepped on stage. The crowd silenced.
"As you all may know, the annual Beypoint Contest is coming up soon, and we are most pleased to announce a new twist. The Beypoint Contests held in the past have all been standard format, but this year it will be in Zero-G! Also, a team of 4 bladers will compete together in a chance to enter the Beyblade Fight Circuit! It has a new set of rules which won't be mentioned. This isn't all we have to announce. Everyone please follow me into the next room." the old man said.
We walked down a corridor with many rooms with plexiglass windows that revealed lots of machines and bladers being observed by people in crisp, white coats. We soon entered a room, that had a very large machine with many wires connected to a a smaller machine that looked like an advanced 3D printer.
One of the scientists called up a blader. The scientist asked for the kid's Beyblade. He put ot on a flat surface connected to the large machine. A green ray scanned the Beyblade. A couple of minutes passed and the second machine revealed a bew Beyblade. It was very similair to the HMS series of Beyblade, except the track was seperate from the tip.
I was eventually called up the same process was done to my Beyblade. A few miuntes passed and out came my new Bey. It had a dragon insignia. The first part of the metal wheel was completely metal. It was green. The second part was metal as well, but metallic gray in color. The track resembled that of Slash Riger MS' but was of a 150 height. The track was the same as before, but twisted clockwise onto the track. Same did the track to the metal wheel.
After everyone recieved a modified Beyblade we entered another room with standard Beyblade dishes scattered in the room. We were given a Beypoint device once we entered. The old man told us about a team tournament as a way to kick-off the Beypoint contest. Our team was made up of Akio, Me, Kurai, and Mark.
"The battles will be best 2 out of 3 and the victors will recieve 25 points each."
Akio was first up for our team.
"3, 2, 1 Go Shoot!"
Akio's bey struggled to keep a straight pattern as it zipped around the stadium uncontrollably. His opponent continued to wait out the battle in the center. Despite Akio's early control problems, he eventually took control over his Beyblade.
"Wolf Crusher!!!" he yelled.
His Bit-Beast emerged; flying straight towards his opponent's Beyblade. It was sent out of the stadium.
I stepped up to the dish.
"3, 2, 1, Go shoot!"
I had worse problems than Akio! Wyvern was being tossed around by my opponent's enormous Beyblade. If I didn't do something quick my Bey was going to be nothing more than scrap metal.
"Bull Rampage!" he yelled.
Wyvern was sent into the air.
"Wyvern!" I yelled.
My bit-Beast appeared, instead of a normal green dragon; Wyvern had burning green flames all on him. Wyvern came down ina spiral of green fire. A cloud of dust covered the stadium. The dust eventually settled and both beys had stopped in the center. Normal beys would be destroyed after taking a hit like that, but the improved Beyblades were far better. It was up to Ryukai for a tie-breaker.
"3, 2, 1, Go Shoot!
Her launch was weak. It slowly eased into the center of the stadium. Her opponent flew around the edge.
"Dracofly! Wingbeat Blast!" he yelled.
His bey flew into the air. The Bit-Beast emerged and came raining down. Ryukai's Bit-Beast shown forth.
"Scrreeeeeecchhhh" yelled Fairy Drago.
Dracofly was consumed in a veil of light.
As the battles progressed our control over our Beyblades increased, but so did the skill levels of our opponents.
"We have reached our final two teams. Instead of having a measly 25 point reward to the victors. Each blader will recieve 500!!! But only if a representative from one of the teams can defeat a representative of our own."
We agreed that Akio should be the one to do it, considering his power and agressive style of battling, plus Kurai was too frightened.
"Okay, you have all agreed to a representative." the old man said.
"Taichi! Your opponents' await." the old man said.
What appeared to be a 14-year old kid stepped through a door. He wore specialized mechanics on almost all parts of his body. The red device on his eye scanned both representatives beys.
"Hmm, 88(Akio) and 82(Japanese representative), pretty weak." he said.
