Why are you obsessing over the fact that you think poison and blood are not elements? First of all, what does it matter?? Its a good story and you shouldn't go around spamming the thread ranting about the fact that you don't agree with Chinablades choice of elements. Anyway, great story! I really hope you keep writing.

I don't want to fight but it pisses me off when you complain many times saying you're going to quit and when you try to kill your self, just stop soon people won't care when you say you're gonna quit,edboy3 and Charlie both agreed with me , ed say you overeact and charlie says i have a right to my on opinion, but really stop blaming others for something that you did, i'm not sayng you start everything but you expand the problem by being so damn emotional and trying to find people to rant to
just stop complaining and stretching the truth you blame me for your issues when it's not my fault, i just tell you what's true and i try to be fair but you take it as a bad way, just stop even when we first met you you did this.

Just about a billion times. And don't say "no, i only said it seven times" (or however many times you said it) because you know what i mean. I just don't see why it matters so much to you. And if you know she will get upset if you say something, why say it? and keeps saying it? over and over?

Great story can't wait till next chapter.
RE: (Story) Beyblade: The Knights of The Elements (Ch 16 Up!) - Hitsugiya - Aug. 08, 2012
Speculation, read at your own risk!
Toris obviously wont be evil for long.
Anca is now anti-hero, because she also fancies Z.
Vash will probably be evil for longer than Toris.
Saika is organized evil, not demonic evil like (former?) Anca, (now) Vash and Tat.
Basically, Toris is weaker than Saika, Anca is stronger than Toris, but weaker than Tat. Good story, don't give up. Don't criticize unless it's constructive. Don't vote for "STOP WRITING! YOU SUCK! " just because you can, and for that sole reason. Also, I'd recommend you read the story before you do anything that has to do with the story/writer itself.
RE: (Story) Beyblade: The Knights of The Elements (Ch 16 Up!) - ChinaBladeâ„¢ - Aug. 08, 2012
Thanks for all the support... My descision is still undecided. I may leave, I may stay. But this whole thing has made me look like a hypocrite. I feel so special. Anyways, I have a few ideas for my next story (If I do stay). Here they are:
Ideas:
1st Idea (I like this one a lot. I came up with it in a dream.):
Beyblade: The Twin Heros
In this story, a young boy from Louisianna, Louis Bonnefoy, meets his twin brother from France. But his brother isn't just some random guy. He happens to be the Prince of France. Francis Bonnefoy. They meet when Francis decides to go to Louisianna for a few days. But then, a new evil arises. The Demolishers (Still working on the name. Suggest one in the replies!). But, before they can stop these evil bladers, they must overcome their own differances. Will they be able to overcome their differances to stop the new evil? Or will they fall...? (Yes. I know there is no Prince of France in real life. But in this story, there is. Deal with it.)
2nd Idea:
Beyblade: From Zero to Hero
In this story, a poor boy from Korea, Im Yong Soo (They call him Yong Soo), is visited by a bright light. His bey is transformed for him to stop a new evil. But, he has to escape the Korean military before he can actually stop the new evil. Will he be able to get past the new ruler? Or will he be killed by just trying to get past them...?
3rd Idea:
Beyblade: Bladers of Athenos (Still coming up with name.)
In this story, a teenage Greek boy, Heracles Karpusi, and his little brother, Sadik Karpusi, are trusted with two beys. They represent the God of thunder, Zeus. Using these two beys, they must stop the bladers under the control of Hades. But first, they must find the bladers of Poseidon, Apollo, Ares, Hephaestus, Artemis, and Athena. These bladers have been placed all over the earth. Will they be able to find them before Greece, and the whole world, is destroyed...?
I hope you guys like these ideas! They will all have a conection with this story. Please post in the comments on which story you'd like to see! (I want the first idea. XD)
Here's chapter 17!
Still told from Anca's point of veiw.
Chapter 17:
The Evil in Tat
"3! 2! 1! GO SHOOT!" Tat and I shout as we launch our beys. They collide, sending out a shock of energy. We both take steps back. "GO VULPIMANCER!" I shout. "ASTRON!" Tat commands. They both attack each other over and over again. Then, Vulpimancer attacks head on and throws Astron to the other side of the room. It starts digging into the wall. "I'll finish this as quickly as it started!" I exclaim. "GO!" Vulpimancer went straight for Astron. "No! Argh!" Tat yelled. "Astron!" Astron wouldn't budge. Vulpimancer jumped into the air and smashed into Astron.
"Special move!" I shouted. "Vampire's Rage!" Vulpimancer powered up and was covered in a red aura. "NOW!" I shout. An explosion occurs. Tat was swallowed by the smoke. I throw my head back and laugh. I point to where tat was standing. "I can't believe the forbidden bey lost to me! You're supposed to be the big man! You lost to a girl!" I say and laugh. Then suddenly, two deep blue dots appear. "What the..." I mumble. The blue dots form eyes. "I'm not done yet." Tat says. He blows the smoke away. Both beys are still spinning strong. He is surrounded by the deep blue aura.
"But how?!" I ask. "My secret." He says. "Now... Let's start this battle!" He says. Astron sends out a huge blast of energy, blowing Vulpimancer away. I'm starting to worry. I look to the door, expecting Vash there, but he isn't. Instead I see Z. "Stop it!" I think. I cover my ears and close my eyes. "Anca?" Tat asks. I don't respond and fall to my knees. He runs over. "Anca!" He shouts. He gets up close to my face. I smile. "What am I doing?..." I think. "I can't bite him! But I want to... Ugh! Screw it!"
"Anca look at me." He says. I look up and hiss. "What the?!" He says. I bite his neck. He lets out a howl in pain. "You little-" He goes mute when I pull away. "That tasted... Disgusting... Human blood is supposed to be rich... That had no flavor..." I think. "And... It was cold..." I back away from him. "What has Astron done to you?!" I say. Vulpimancer attacks Astron. "You've changed!" I shout.
He laughs. "Astron is the best thing that's ever happened to me!" He says. Astron attacks Vulpimancer. I hear it crack. "Stop!" I say. "Never!" Tat replys. Astron continues attacking Vulpimancer, causing it to crack even more. I can't take it. "STOP IT!" I shout and am surrounded by a red aura. Vulpimancer blasts Astron away. Tat growls. "ASTRON! SPECIAL MOVE! SPACE CORRUPTION BLASTER!" Astron sends out waves of energy that blast Vulpimancer away. It slams into the wall and stops spinning. It cracks even more. I run over and pick it up.
"No..." I mumble and fall to my knees. Tat walks up from behind and grabs my neck. He lifts me up. He starts choking me. "Time for you to pay the price." He says. I look back over to the door. I notice someone's eye. It's Toris. I shake my head. "What are you looking at?!" Tat says and looks over. Toris hides. Tat chuckles. "You really are insane." He says and lifts up his other hand. He grabs my right fang. I feel tears forming in my eyes. "This will be fun!" He says and starts pulling. "NO!" I manage to say.
Then suddenly, a bey comes flying in. "POISON GENOCIDE!" Someone shouts. It hits Tat and causes him to drop me. The room is filling with poisoness gas. I'm immune to poison, unlike Tat. Tat lies on the floor, half dead. I get up and walk over to the door to see Toris. He catches Akuma. "We need to get out of here." He says. I nod and run to my room and get my stuff. I put two packs of cigarettes and a lighter in my pocket. I give my rabbit a goodbye kiss and run.

Because I wanted the two main elements to be co-existing. Like a yin-yang. One can't be there without the other.
Here's Chapter 18!
(Warning: It is long!)
Chapter 18:
The Unicorn Returns
After resting up, we went to an outdoor bey park. "Lilly!" I say. "Let's battle!" She smiles and nods. We go to a regular bey stadium. Our friends watch from the side lines. "We've never actually got to battle!" I say and ready Tempus. "Yeah. This should be fun!" Lilly responds and readies Gryph. "Let's go!" I shout. "3! 2! 1! GO SHOOT!" We both shout and launch our beys. They collide in the middle of the stadium. "Tempus!" I shout. "Gryph!" Lilly shouts. They collide again, sending out a burst of air.
Gryph circles around the stadium while Tempus stays in the middle. "Let's get this over with!" Lilly says. "I want to battle Fan!" I hear Fan laugh. I smile. "You're confident. But can you beat this?!" I shout as Tempus sends out a beam of energy. They hit around Gryph. "That was a close one!" Lilly says. But then, Tempus shoots out another blast of energy, heading straight for Gryph. "Gryph!" Lilly shouts. Right before the beam hits Gryph, it disappears. "What the?!" I exclaim.
Lilly smiles. "Now!" She shouts. Gryph appears behind Tempus and attacks him. Gryph then disappears again. It continues doing that. "No!" I shout. Tempus is losing spin, and fast. "Get out of there, Tempus!" I say. Tempus can't move. "Dang!" Lilly laughs. "It looks like I have this battle in the bag!" She says. I feel sweat forming on my forehead. "What am I going to do?" I think. "I can't move..." Then it hits me. "TEMPUS! SPECIAL MOVE! TIME DISTORTER BLAST!" Tempus powers up. Lilly laughs. "Go ahead. Use the move!" She says. Tempus sends out the blast of energy.
But suddenly, Gryph appears and stops to move by hitting Tempus. Tempus goes flying. "No!" I shout. Tempus lands in the stadium, just missing the knock out area. "Go!" Lilly shouts. I see the C145 on Gryph send out it's claws. A stream of wind surrounds Gryph. It starts heading straight for Tempus. "I have to act fast..." I think. Then it hits me. "Wait for it.." I think. Gryph is almost here. "Now!" I shout. Tempus uses the wind surrounding Gryph and spins around it. Gryph crashes into the stadium.
A small explosion occurs. "Alright!" I shout. Lilly smiles. "It's not over yet!" She says. "Huh?!" I exclaim as Gryph flies out of the smoke. It smashes into Tempus and pushes him into one of the stadium walls. "Special Move!" Lilly shouts. "TORNADO CLAWING ASSULT!" The claws on Gryph come out and hit Tempus, draining it's spin. "Tempus!" I shout. "This battle is as good as over!" Lilly says. "GRYPH!" Gryph powers up even more. The wall is beginning to crack. "If the wall breaks, it's all over!" I think.
Then it hits me. "Tempus! Change height!" Tempus' track changes to the tallest mode and Tempus disappears. I look up to see a crowd has gathered around the stadium. "Let's put on a show, then, Tempus." I think. Lilly closes her eyes. "What are you doing?!" I say. She then opens them and points to a spot in the stadium. "There!" She says. Gryph heads for that spot and smashes into something. Tempus is revealed.
"How'd you do that!?" I exclaim in shock. "I can hear your bey." Lilly responds. They clash over and over again. I can tell both beys are at their last leg. Both beys get sent to opposite sides of the stadium. It's time for the final run. Our beys power up and are covered in our color auras. "GO!!!" We both shout. Both beys starts speeding towards each other at full power. They are about to collide when suddenly, a bey is shot in and blasts both beys away. "Special Move!" Someone shouts. "Mega Lightning Assault!"
"Hey!" Lilly and I shout. The bey sends out two blasts of lightning and knocks both of out beys out. I look at the bey spinning in the stadium. It's obviously an attack type with a low spin track. It has a green energy ring. We look around to try and find the blader. "Return!" A voice says. The bey jumps out of the stadium and goes into a tree. A man jumps down. He has white hair a flaming red eyes.
He had on a blue German military uniform with an iron cross necklace around his neck. A small yellow bird was sitting on his head. He smiles. Roderich and Alfred walk over. "Well if it isn't Gilbert Beilschmidt!" Roderich says. They shake hands. "Uncle Gilbert!" Lilly exclaims and runs over. The man picks her up and spins her around. "It's been awhile, Lilly!" He says. He sets her down and looks to me.
"You're Zeit!" He says and walks over. "Do I know you?" I ask. He laughs. "I'm the one who helped name you. It's been a long time since you've seen me." He says and smiles. "Oh yeah! I remember you!" I say. We shake hands. "You've become an amazing blader. Just like your dad." He says. He then looks around. "Where is he?" He asks. I explain the situation to him. He frowns. "I'll help you guys stop them." He says.
"It's a deal." I say and we fist bump. Then I hear something. A moan. Lilly raises her eyebrows. I look to Peter, Fan, and Feliks, who are confused as well. "Did you hear that?" I ask Gilbert. "Yeah." I look around. I hear another moan. "It's coming from that bush." I say and point. We run over and I push back the leaves and twigs. The sight is horrible. "Anca?!" I exclaim.

Nice Chapter!
RE: (Story) Beyblade: The Knights of The Elements (Ch 18 Up!) - ChinaBladeâ„¢ - Aug. 10, 2012
Seriously post on the story. Lol. I need posts. XD Anyways, here's Chapter 19!
Chapter 19:
The Dark Dragon
There, sitting in front of me is a beaten up Anca. She's covered in cuts and bruises and has blood stains all around her mouth. "Hey." She says and smiles. I help her up. "What happened?!" I ask. She wipes her mouth off. "Tat. Wild animals. Other things." She responds. She stumbles backwards. "Whoa!" Feliks says and catches her. He brings her back up like he's hugging her. She has her eyes closed and is smiling. We all laugh. She then realizes what's happening. "Get off of me, you swine!" She says and slaps Feliks back into reality. "I had to." He says and lets go of her.
She wipes her clothes off. She then proceeds to take off her over coat, revealing a bloody dress shirt. "Ugh." She says. "I wish Vash was here..." She mumbles. "But I am here." A familiar voice says. We look to see Vash standing in a tree. He jumps down and walks over. He puts his rifle up to my head. "Hey!" Anca says and punches Vash in the chest. He drops the gun. "What was that for?!" He asks. "Don't hurt him." Anca says. "Why do you care?!" He asks. Anca has a surprised expression.
"Just because!" Anca says. "What will you do to stop me!?" Vash shouts. Anca takes out a damaged Vulpimancer and puts it to Vash's face. "Battle me. Now." She says. Vash stares at the bey and then bursts out laughing. Anca's mad expression doesn't change. Vash stops laughing. "You were serious?!" He asks. Anca nods. "Fine." He says. Anca hands me her over coat. They run over to the stadium. Anca readies her bey. Vash loads his gun. "That's his launcher?!" I ask Roderich. He nods.
"Be careful, Anca!" Peter says. She looks over and winks. She then focuses on the battle. "3! 2! 1! GO SHOOT!" They both shout. Anca launches her bey. Vash pulls the trigger on his gun and his bey comes flying out. "Dark Knight Dragooon!" He shouts. "Vulpimancer!" They collide and send out a burst of air, blowing Anca back. She lands on her back and lets out a cry in pain. Vash laughs. She gets back up and runs over.
"I feel bad doing this." Vash says. "But let's end this quickly." Dragooon sends out a burst of energy and is covered in a glowing yellow aura. "SPECIAL MOVE!" Vash shouts. "DARK KNIGHT CRUSHER!" Dragooon sends out a blast of energy. It then smashes into Vulpimancer. The impact throws Anca back. I see the fear in her eyes. She hits the ground, hard. I look to Vulpimancer, who is barely spinning. "Weakling." Vash says. "What did you call me?" Anca says.
"You're weak!" Vash says. Anca sits up. Her eyes are completely blood red. "Oh carp." We all say. She gets up and walks back over to the stadium. "You'll regret this." She says and is surrounded by a blood red aura. "What the?!" Vash exclaims. "I HATE YOU!" Anca exclaims and unleashes her power. Vulpimancer heals itself and then smashes into Dragooon. "SPECIAL MOVE!" She shouts. "VAMPIRE'S RAGE!" Vulpimancer attacks Dragooon without stopping and throws it out of the stadium.
Vash looks surprised. Anca then disappears and reappears in front of him. She then grabs his coat collar. "We are so over." She says. I see tears forming in Vash's eyes. Anca then punches him right in the nose. He stumbles back. "That was for calling me weak." I hear Elizabeta giggle. "What's so funny?" I ask. "He needed that." She responds. We all nod. "Hey Anca!" She shouts. Anca looks up. "He's part Hungarian, too!" She looks astonished. "I kissed a Hungarian swine!?" She says. Vash laughs nervously.
"I really hate you." Anca says. She then pins him down on the ground. "Hey!" Vash shouts. She lifts her fist up and creates an orb of energy in her hand. "This is for all the pain you've caused me!" She shouts and brings her fist down on his chest. She punches him so hard that it makes the ground under him crack. He coughs and disappears. Anca gets up and shouts Romanian curse words. She holds her head. "Why did I ever get in to this!?" She shouts. I run over. She starts crying. "Calm down!" I say. She turns to me and hugs me. "I hate myself..." She mumbles and then faints.
All I can say is...
Poor Vash.
[Edit] Romanians are not fans of Hungarians. That's why Anca got so mad.
[Edit 2] Toris' theme song is the 4th opening of the anime, Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood. If any of you know the name of the song, please tell me.
