   Ooooooooooops!
OMG! Thank you so much beyblader for pointing out that I had two Chapter 11s. I have changed it now so I'll re-post the last few chapters now and a few more too. I'll delete the other post so you'll have to comment again on this one. Please PM me with any other comments or if you want to be in the story. Remember to include where you are from. Suppose you want the next chapters? Here they are!:

Chapter 11: Run!
Diana and Ray turned and ran away as fast as they could. The alarm sounded, but shortly stopped and they stopped, thinking they had lost the guard. Ray pulled a door open and let Diana through and slammed it behind them.
“Okay, that was close.”
“Yeah, I agree with you Ray,” Diana said and took in deep breaths. It was a tip Nicole had given her because she got really puffed during long performances.
“Where are we now?”
“Dunno. It looks like a conference room,” Diana said as she stood up.
“Well that is a good guess I suppose. But lets get out of here. Through that door,” he said and pointed to the door at the other end of the long room. They ran around the long table and chairs and went out the door.
“We’ve been here before haven’t we?” Ray asked in confusion.
“Yeah, to get Nicole! We came in from over there!” Diana said. “But she’s stopped screaming. We won’t know where she is now.”
“Well lets random guess our way until we find her,” Ray said, hoping to make Diana feel better about the situation. That was just the way he is. She agreed and opened a door. They kept going like this until they came across a locked door.
“Must be this one, it’s locked.” Ray looked for a key and Diana tried to see if Nicole was inside by saying her name.
“Key’s here,” Ray said as he grabbed the key and unlocked the door. They entered the room and found Nicole lying on the ground unconscious.
“OMG. What happened,” Diana said, just about in tears.
“Uh, we need to get her out of here remember?” Ray asked her.
“Okay, how? She’s unconscious, she can’t walk,” Diana said. Nicole sat up laughing.
“No, I was asleep,” she managed to say.
“Shhh, we don’t want to get caught,” Ray said as he fetched the other key he had seen.
“Thank God you’re alive,” Diana said and hugged her friend. Ray came back and took the handcuffs off Nicole.
“Thanks, now lets get out of here,” Nicole said and ran out of the door.
“Going somewhere?” a masked figure asked.
“Yes actually. Out of this prison, Brooklyn,” she replied and kicked him hard in the guts. She then pushed him into the wall and made a run for it. Ray and Diana followed and caught up with her when she went down stairs.
“Where are we going?” Ray asked.
“I’ve got no clue, but I’m hoping there is an exit somewhere,” she said as she turned a corner. She ran right into a masked figure dressed in black.
“Nice outfit Garland,” she said and kicked him hard in the guts and pushed him into the wall. They kept on running and found a few guards that captured Nicole. Ray and Diana didn’t turn the corner, but hid in a room. Once again, just when she thought she was free, she was trapped.

Chapter 12: Rich
Kai, Chelsea, Max and Tyson all leaned against the door when the alarm went off, hoping to stop any guards from getting in. They stopped as the alarm turned off and looked around again.
“This is unreal,” Max said in a surprised tone.
“Yeah, I know. This guy Boris owns way too much money,” Tyson said as he stared around the room in shock. The room they had entered was full of money, rows and rows full of stacks of notes.
“This is wrong,” Chelsea said.
“Why?” Kai questioned.
“Why would a guy like this ‘Boris’ guy keep heaps of money in a unlocked room like this? Wouldn’t he have it in a safe?”
“My grandfather leaves stacks of money around the mansion because he’s so rich he doesn’t care if a few millions goes missing.” Kai’s reply astonished the rest of the group.
“So you could take a few hundreds and buy heaps of stuff?” Tyson asked.
“Yep. He wouldn’t care either.”
“Okay, that’s weird,” Max said as he looked around the room for the twentieth time.
“Lets go now, guards will probably be checking out all of the rooms now, so we should move before we get caught here,” Chelsea said.
“Wait a minute. Shouldn’t we take some? Money I mean. We’d be rich if each of us slipped a few stacks of notes,” Tyson suggested.
“I am rich,” Chelsea said.
“I’m rich too,” Kai said.
“Well, we could take a few. He probably wouldn’t notice, right?” Max told Tyson. They reached over to the shelf closest to them and grabbed a few handfuls each and stuffed them in their pockets.
“C’mon guys, just take a few. Please,” Tyson said.
“Okay, fine I will,” Chelsea said quietly as she walked over and grabbed a few handfuls.
“No way, lets go,” Kai said as he pulled open the door and walked out. Lucky for him, two guards were waiting there for him and grabbed him. He fought but lost and was dragged away. The other three though, weren’t captured because they were busy loading up their pockets with money. They turned around and left the room, but saw the guards dragging Kai away. They ducked back into the room and waited until they thought the guards were around the corner.
“Now we have to get him again,” Max said.
“Of course we do, he’s our friend.”
“You mean your friend, he’s not mine yet,” Chelsea said. “C’mon, we’ll lose the guards.” They walked silently across the hall and turned the corner to see a struggling Kai and three guards turning off into a room. This room was the conference room that Ray and Diana were in before. The three decided to not go in, but to wait in the room next to it until they came out. Only if they knew what was in that room.

Chapter 13: Street Style
As the alarm turned off, the four boys realized exactly where they were. They had entered a weapon room. Lots of guns, swords, knives and other weapons were on shelves. DC and Voke stood up and looked around, DC checking out guns by checking ammo and aiming with them (but not firing) and Voke checking out the knives and swords. Daichi and Kenny just watched as the two 15 year olds walked around collecting the best weapons.
“Okay, I’ll take Kenny,” DC said.
“And I’ve got Daichi,” Voke said with a smile.
“I am not using a gun,” Kenny said and backed off towards the door.
“It’s self defense Kenny. You might one day. If you lived on the streets, you’d have to carry one around if you wanted to live,” DC replied. He passed Kenny a small loaded gun while he checked out a sniper rifle.
“Here Daichi,” Voke said with a grin. “See if this is light enough.” Daichi grabbed the sword keenly and held it in his hands.
“It’s fine,” he whispered and a gigantic smile spread on his face.
“It’s one way you get girls Daichi,” Voke said and gave him a dagger. “You’ll need this too okay?”
“Yeah, this is just great,” Daichi replied.
“Right, we’re ready,” Voke told DC.
“We’re nearly ready,” DC replied and gave Kenny another gun. “Remember what I told you Kenny?”
“Yeah, I will,” he replied and thought to himself, ‘a gun gets the girls’. He smiled, loaded the gun and wished Ming Ming was there to see him now.
“Now, lets go kick some ass street style!” DC shouted, loaded his gun, grabbed heaps of other guns and pulled open the door. A guard faced him and he fired. The guard fell and DC stepped over him.
“I go and call when it’s safe to come all right?” DC asked. The others nodded in agreement.
“I’ll be back,” DC said in a Terminator voice and walked around the corner. A few fires and he called out. The others followed him around the corner.
“Kenny, you’ll take this corner,” DC ordered him and shoved him towards the corner.
Kenny went and fired twice and called out in a shaky voice, “Clear.” The others followed around the corner.
“We’ll take this one,” Voke said and looked at Daichi. Daichi nodded and got ready. They took the corner and charged at three guards. Voke took one down and so did Daichi. The other guard stabbed Daichi and got him in his arm. Daichi fell to his knees clutching where the blade had hit him. DC came around the corner and fired at the guard. He fell, dead. Kenny rushed over to Daichi who was moaning in pain.
“Are you okay?” he asked him.
“No! What does it look like?” Daichi replied in pain. DC kicked a door open and went in.
“Guys, get Daichi in here,” he said. Voke and Kenny picked up Daichi and took him in. DC was looking around the room for a bandage. He found one and mended Daichi’s arm the best he could. They went out and went around many corners with out finding guards. They opened a random door and went through and crashed into two people.

Chapter 14: Crash
Eddie and Hilary ran down hallways and through unlocked doors that led left and eventually came to a room where on exiting it through the door at the other side, they ran into DC, Kenny, Voke and Daichi carrying weapons. DC quickly aimed his gun at them.
“Oh, hi guys,” he said and lowered his weapon.
“Sup?” Eddie replied.
“Well we’ve got DC,” Voke said.
“We found the control room and shut down, everything I think,” Hilary said. Eddie nodded in agreement. DC handed a gun to Eddie and Hilary.
“You’ve got to be kidding me. I can’t use this,” Hilary stated.
“Self defence,” Eddie said and loaded his gun. “C’mon, lets find the others. What way?”
“Back where you guys came from? We found DC and I don’t think that they would keep the three together,” Kenny suggested.
“Good idea, lets go,” Daichi said and walked over to the other door. He pulled it open and walked out it. He called out ‘clear’ and took a right turn. They continued to walk down and DC advised that he led the way. The rest agreed and DC led the way until he turned a corner and everything was silent.
“Did he forget to say clear?” Voke asked. Hilary turned the corner and saw a guard. She fired her chick’s gun and hit the guard. He fell and Hilary said clear.
“DC is not here. Where did he go?” Eddie asked. He looked around hoping to see his friend.
“Did guards capture him again?” Daichi suggested. Everyone looked at him.
“Probably,” Voke said in a quiet voice.
“Well what are we waiting for? Lets find him!” Kenny said and went to the next corner. They kept going like this until they came across DC being led away by four guards. He was walking normally and had a gun pointed to his head by one of the guards. Hilary loaded her gun and aimed, but Eddie pulled it down.
“No! You might hit DC!” he hissed. “We came here to rescue him remember? Not to kill him!” Hilary sighed and lowered the gun.
“I know. Lets follow him. Then we’ll know where they are putting him” Hilary said and watched them as they disappeared around the corner. The group followed and kept this up for a few minutes. The guards stopped at a door and went in. This room was the conference room.
“I’ve got a feeling we shouldn’t go in,” Daichi said.
“So do I,” Kenny said and had a idea “We could wait in this room beside it so when they come out, we can follow them again.” They pushed open the door and entered the room. They saw Tyson, Max, Chelsea, Ray and Diana trying on bulletproof vests. When the door opened, they turned and saw it was only Daichi, Kenny, Hilary, Eddie and Voke all armed with weapons.
“Oh, hi guys,” Kenny said.
“Hi,” Tyson said as Chelsea and Diana ran over to Eddie and Voke. “We’ve got a confession to make.”
”Go ahead,” Daichi said.
“Well, we had Kai, but he got caught again. We followed the guards to the room beside us and we are staying in here until they come out,” Max explained.
“Yeah, we had DC, but he got caught too. He’s being threatened with a gun,” Voke explained.
“So why are you carrying guns then?” Tyson asked.
“Self defence,” Eddie replied.
“Street style.” Voke helped to answer the question. Eddie passed Chelsea and Diana a gun.
“Thanks,” she said and she smiled and loaded her gun. Tyson and Max both got guns too and the others ditched the knives and swords inside a vest.
“We won’t need these to much, so we’ll just use guns,” Voke explained as he pulled on a bulletproof vest. He grabbed a gun and loaded it. “Okay everyone needs a vest on and a gun. Is that clear?”
“Yes,” everyone replied and grabbed a vest. Soon they were ready.
“Right, when they come out, we’ll follow them and try to get them back. Some one carry extra vests for the three. I’ll keep some ammo and other guns to use and Eddy will carry some more too. We don’t want to crash into any guards by accident. Any questions?” Voke asked. They all shook their head and sat down and waited quietly for the sound of the door opening.

Chapter 15: Team Bega
Meanwhile in the conference room, Boris was already waiting in one chair at the end of the table. Guards surrounded the table and some had seated themselves at chairs close to Boris. Two clutched their stomachs. Kai’s grandfather Voltaire sat next to Boris with a grin on his face. Four guards entered the room with Nicole. She was fighting back until a guard aimed a gun at her.
“Sit,” the guard said and Nicole sat on the chair next to her. The guard kept the gun aimed at her and Nicole waited patiently. Soon door at the other end of the room opened and Kai was dragged in and placed next to Nicole. A guard aimed a gun at Kai’s head and he didn’t move. As soon as Kai sat down, DC entered with four guards beside and behind him. A gun pointed to his head explained why he was obeying the guards. He also sat next to Nicole and didn’t move.
“You thought that you could get away huh? Tell me, why was that?” Boris questioned them. They didn’t reply.
“Fine, don’t answer. Here’s what’s going to happen. You are going to be part of Team Bega. Here is the rest of the team,” Boris said and the guards sitting pulled off their masks. They turned out to be Garland, Brooklyn, Ming Ming, Hiro, Mystel and Tala.
“You’re kidding?” Nicole accidentally said out loud.
“No. Hiro and Tala aren’t actually part of the team, the coach the team,” Boris explained. The two nodded in agreement.
“I am not being part of that team,” DC said.
“You are being forced into being on this team,” Boris said. “You’ll be killed if you don’t agree.”
“Why me?” Kai murmured and looked down.
“In a few days there are Championship matches being held. You as a team will be entered. We will have five rounds and three battles in total against different teams to earn points. One point for each round won. The team with the lowest points will be disqualified. Then the other teams will battle until one winning team is found. Cash is awarded the winning team and many other prizes. We are first up against F-Dynasty and I’m sure that you will serve me well. That is all,” Boris said and he nodded to the guards. They made the three move out of the room. The group of friends that were in the next room heard the door open. They heard footsteps leading away in the same direction. The group stepped out and walked along after the footsteps. They followed until the guards left the three in a room and walked away in the opposite direction. The group went up to the door.
“Hey, are you guys in there?” Hilary asked.
“Yes,” Nicole replied.
“How are we getting them out? It’s an electric lock,” Eddie asked.
“How do you know what it is?” Ray asked him.
“Me and Hilary found the controls for electric locks in the control room,” Eddie replied and looked at the lock.
“I can probably hack into the system and unlock it,” Kenny suggested and plugged a cord into the lock. He stared at the screen and finally said, “I’ve got it! 55829.” Tyson punched the number in and the alarm went off.
“Run!” Diana shouted and they ran down stairs. They came across a door reading ‘exit’ and went through. They ran down the tunnel and came across fresh air. The group panted heavily and sat down.
“We left them behind!” Max exclaimed.
“Oh man! Why didn’t the number work?” Voke asked Kenny.
“I don’t know!” Kenny yelled back.
“Maybe we should wait until the Championships. They’re most likely going to be there don’t you think?” Daichi suggested.
“Yeah, they might be,” Chelsea said and looked at the sky.
“So we’re waiting?” Diana asked.
“Yep,” Tyson replied.
“Have we entered in the Championships yet?” Ray asked.
“No!” Max said.
“We should though,” Kenny said and his team agreed.
“Should we enter too?” Voke asked. “We’re missing DC and Nicole, and they might be against us.”
“Yeah, but I reckon we should give it a go,” Diana said.
“We might win,” Eddie said.
“No dude, we will win!” Chelsea called out.
“I’ll take that as a you guys are going to enter,” Hilary said.
“Yeah, we are,” Eddie said.
“Hey guys, you have to enter before midday today,” Kenny said and stood up.
“Wow! We’d better enter soon, ‘cause knowing Tyson, he’ll keep us back until midday!” Daichi said.
“Why you little-,” Tyson said and ran after him. Daichi ran straight back to the town and the others followed, their spirits lifted that they might get their friends back soon.

Chapter 16: Ready To Go
The two teams got off the bus and walked into the BBA building. The looked around and saw The PPB All Starz, The Blitzkrieg Boyz (with out Tala), White Tigers X, The Majestics and new teams. Tyson went up to the counter.
“I’d like to enter my team into the Championships please,” he said.
“Take a seat and wait please,” the girl said. “Mr Dickinson will be here soon.”
“I suppose we’d have to wait too, right? We want to enter too,” Eddie asked.
“Yes, that’s correct,” she replied. They all followed Max to his Mom and his friends.
“Hi Mom!” he said.
“Hello Max. I assume you will be entering with your friends?”
“Yeah, sorry. I guess you want me to be on your team.”
“Yes, but it’s your decision Max,” she said with a smile. “I see you have more friends Max.”
“Uh, I don’t think they’re friends with us yet. They are just entering too and have also, well, lost two friends.” Max tried to explain things a bit.
“They have? As in dead lost?”
“No, just lost Mom,” he replied. “We’ve lost Kai too.”
“He’s with the Blitzkrieg Boyz again?”
“No, he’s with a new team,” Tyson answered for Max.
“Same with our two friends,” Diana said. Just then, Team Bega walked in. Boris went up to the counter and got told to sit down too. Mr Dickinson walked into the room and looked around. He clapped a few times to get everyone’s attention and held the microphone up to his mouth.
“Welcome everyone. I see we have quite a few teams ready to beyblade. As you may know, there is money and other prizes ready for the winning team and you have to score points to win. We’ll register the willing teams and we’ll have a few beybattles tomorrow and that will be the first few matches of this competition. Every match is made up of five rounds. So what team that has participated before wants to register first? How about the world champion Tyson and his team?” Tyson, Max, Kenny, Ray and Daichi made their way up to the old man.
“So boys, why isn’t Kai up here too?” he asked as he handed a paper over and a pen. “Is he with The Blitzkrieg Boyz again?”
“No. A new team.” Kenny’s answer was short. The signed the papers and handed them back over. Other familiar teams came up and signed.
“And now it is time for the new teams to come up. How about that pretty girl’s team?” he said and pointed to Julia. She walked up with Raul and they signed.
“F-Dynasty has signed,” he said reading off the paper where they had put their team’s name. “So how about you? Girl with the pink hair by the guy with blonde hair.” That team walked up and registered.
“Barthez Battalions are now registered. Now lets see. How about you guys with BBA Revolution? Are you just friends or a team?”
“Nah, we’re not friends yet, but we’re entering,” Voke replied and walked up with the team.
“Aren’t they The Thuganomics?” Julia asked a bit too loud.
“Yes, but Nicole and DC aren’t there with there team. They’re with that other team over there,” Raul replied. They signed and went back.
“The Thuganomics have signed. And now that large team over there, come up and sign,” Mr Dickinson said as he pointed to them. The team walked over and signed.
“And Team Bega has signed. I will see you all tomorrow at the qualifying rounds. Good bye everyone!” Mr Dickinson said and walked away through the door leading to his office.
“Right, we’re ready to go and fight,” Eddie said.
“So what? You guys are ready, but we’ll still win!” Tyson said jokingly.
“Don’t bet on it!” Chelsea said and looked over at Nicole standing with Team Bega. She sighed loudly and Voke looked at her.
“We’ll get them back, don’t worry,” he reassured her, and then went back to joking around with Tyson as they left the building.

Chapter 17: First Rounds
It was the next day and the two teams, BBA Revolution and The Thuganomics turned up together.
“Let’s hope we don’t have to go against each other yet,” Diana said. “You guys wouldn’t be able to continue.”
“More like you guys wouldn’t be able to continue,” Max said back. A new announcer walked up onto the platform near from the middle of the stadium. She was wearing a blue mini skirt and a small, purple tank top and had blonde hair.
“Hello everyone! My name’s Zap, and I’m going to be refereeing these matches and guiding you throughout this Championship! Mr D has told me that first off it will be F-Dynasty against Team Bega! So can the first beybladers come up here and get ready to beyblade?” Zap bellowed into her microphone. The girl from F-Dynasty, Julia, walked up to the platform. The boy, Raul, watched her and wished her good luck in his head. Boris chose Nicole to go first and she walked up to the other platform.
“It looks like we have Julia from F-Dynasty starting off against Nicole from Team Bega! Lets see what kind of beyblade dish we have today!” Zap said and the floor started to move the beybladers apart. It revealed a dish with metal spikes in random places, metal walls in random places and a big metal wall right around the dish.
“It looks like we have selected the Metal Cell beyblade dish for these beybladers to beyblade in! Beybladers, get ready! And 3, 2, 1, Let It Rip!” The two let their beyblades into the dish and the spikes and walls moved up and down. One spike came up and made Julia’s beyblade fly up. A wall also came up and Nicole’s blade went full speed into it. The wall had a hole in it and Nicole just ignored it. Julia’s beyblade came down on top of Nicole’s blade. Julia’s beyblade went flying off and hit a wall and went back on the attack. Nicole moved her blade and attack Julia’s blade. Julia’s beyblade flied out of the dish and stopped spinning.
“And Nicole from Team Bega is the winner!” Zap announced. Nicole held up her hand and her beyblade flew into it and she turned and walked back to her new team. Boris congratulated her as she sat down, but she ignored it.
“Next beybladers please!” Zap said and Raul walked up to Julia as she left the platform. She picked up her beyblade and looked at it. It was badly damaged and she couldn’t blade with it.
“You’ll have to win the other rounds for me Raul,” she said in a quiet voice and sat down beside her coach. Raul got ready to beyblade as Garland came up to face him.
“And 3, 2, 1, Let It Rip!” The boys launched their blades into the metal dish. Garland and Raul were both on the attack, and soon both of the beyblades were loosing their balance. Raul used an air attack and missed Garland’s beyblade. Unfortunately, his beyblade stopped when he missed. Garland’s beyblade stopped spinning just after Raul’s stopped. They both picked up their beyblades and went back to the bench.
“Garland from Team Bega is the winner of this round!” Zap announced. “The score is two-nil to Team Bega!” F-Dynasty’s coach came up to Zap and explained to her that they couldn’t continue to beyblade. “It looks like that F-Dynasty is unable to battle anymore! They have forfeited this match and have left Team Bega the winner of this match!”
“Oh no!” Hilary said.
“If they weren’t against Team Bega, they would have won,” Ray said.
“Well we have to watch out for Team Bega then, don’t we?” Tyson said confidently.
“Yeah, we do,” Daichi said.
“I’ve got information on Garland and Nicole now,” Kenny announced and pointed to the screen of his laptop. “We can predict when they will use those moves later on if we are up against them.”
”Great. We might win now. This Team Bega seems to be really strong,” Max said.
“Hey everyone, it’s time for the next teams to come up!” Zap said. “We will see White Tigers X against BBA Revolution! Teams chose your first beyblader!” Mariah walked up to the platform and smiled at Ray, who was also walking up to the platform.
“We have Mariah from White Tigers X and Ray from BBA Revolution! Remember that you are trying to get 5 points to be equal with Team Bega! Lets get ready to see the new dish!” The platforms moved back and revealed a rocky landscape with different coloured lights shining onto it. “Beybladers ready, 3, 2, 1, Let It Rip!” Both beybladers launched their beyblades into the dish and went straight on the attack. Ray pushed Mariah and she pushed back.
“You’ve improved,” Ray commented.
“Thank you. You have too Ray,” Mariah replied.
“Drigger now!” Ray shouted and Drigger attacked. Mariah’s blade fell out of the dish, but still spinning.
“And here is your winner, Ray from BBA Revolution!” Ray went over to Mariah and offered her his hand. She shook it and Ray smiled and walked back to his team.
“Go Ray!” Max congratulated him.
“One point to us already!” Tyson said and looked at Mariah. She looked hurt as she gazed at him. Tyson managed to drag his eyes off her and prepare to beyblade next.
‘I must win this,’ he thought to himself.
“Okay Tyson, you’re next!” Kenny said.
“Good luck!”
”Win this!
“Don’t worry, I will,” Tyson said with a huge grin and walked up to the platform.
“Next we have Tyson, the world champion from BBA Revolution against Lee from White Tigers X! Lee needs to win this to make the score one-one! Bladers ready? 3, 2, 1, Let It Rip!”

Chapter 18: Three-Two
Lee and Tyson’s beyblades went into the beyblade dish and attacked each other. Intense fighting happened between the pair and at times the beyblades were only blurs of lines. Many strong attacks were used and strong defence moves were also used. Tyson decided it was time to end this match. He called Dragoon out to attack. Lee managed to dodge it and hit Tyson with his own attack. Believe it or not, but Tyson’s beyblade stopped spinning.
“I, I lost,” Tyson stammered. He picked up his beyblade and watched Lee go back to his team.
“I guess I wasn’t concentrating enough,” he explained to his friends when he got back.
“That’s strange,” Daichi said.
“What’s strange?” Kenny asked.
“Well, Tyson said he’d win, and he didn’t,” Daichi replied.
“Why you little-“ Tyson said and grabbed Daichi by his hair.
“Hey! Let go of me!” Daichi yelled and Tyson let go of him.
“Who’s going up next?” Kenny asked.
“You,” Hilary answered.
“Me?” Kenny asked. “Fine then, I’ll go.” He walked up to the platform and waited for his opponent. Kevin ran up and was ready to beyblade.
“The score is one-one, a draw, we will have Kenny from BBA Revolution and Kevin from White Tiger X beyblade now!” Zap said. “Ready? 3, 2, 1, Let It Rip!” Kenny’s beyblade bounced around on the rocks and up and down mountains. Kevin’s beyblade followed quickly and attacked. They battled powerfully for two minutes and Kevin did the right attack at the right time and left Kenny with a still beyblade. Kevin had won and Kenny had lost.
“We have a winner! Kevin from White Tiger X!” Zap announced. “We now have a score of two-one to White Tiger X!”
“Sorry guys, I lost,” Kenny apologised when he got back to his friends.
“Look, I’ll win the next round and then it will be two-two. We will win, okay?” Daichi asked.
“Yeah okay,” Kenny said as he sat down and picked up his laptop and started to type. Daichi sprinted up to the platform and watched Mariah come back up.
“A girl? This’ll be easy,” he commented.
“Don’t bet on it!” Mariah said positively and got her beyblade out.
“Round four is Mariah from White Tiger X and Daichi from BBA Revolution! And, 3, 2, 1, Let It Rip!” Zap said. Both beyblades attacked, but missed. It kept going like this until Daichi hit Mariah. Her beyblade was pushed back and just about off the cliff. He went to hit her again, but she swerved out of the way and Daichi’s beyblade fell off the cliff. Lucky for him, his beyblade kept on spinning and he went back to attack Mariah. This time he hit her and her beyblade stopped spinning.
“And Mariah’s beyblade has failed to continue spinning after Daichi’s attack, and Daichi wins! Two-two, a draw!” Zap said enthusiastically. “One more round will determine the winning team and a total of three points for one team, and two for the other, unless it is a draw! Then it would be three-three! Next beybladers up here please!” Ray and Lee both strode up to the platforms.
“You know I’ll win,” Lee declared.
“I will,” Ray replied.
“We have Ray from BBA Revolution and Lee from White Tiger X! 3, 2, 1, Let It Rip!” Zap said as the boys launched their beyblades into the dish. Lee attacked and sent Ray’s beyblade flying through a rock. Ray’s reaction? Well he sent Lee’s through a rock too. This rock fight kept going until Ray pushed hard enough to get Lee’s beyblade out of the dish and stopped spinning.
“And here is your winner of this round, Ray from BBA Revolution! He has made the score three-two to BBA Revolution! BBA Revolution has won this match!” Zap announced and many fans cheered.
“Congratulations Ray!” Hilary said as Ray came back with a big grin on his face.
“Yeah, congratulations mate!” Tyson said and hugged him.
“Thanks guys, I couldn’t have done it with out you though,” Ray said.
“That was so a Ray remark,” Max said.
“Three-two. We won that one. But next time Max, you’ll have to win, okay?” Kenny asked.
“Don’t worry chief, I’m going help you guys get to the top!” Max replied. He had let Ray go twice and miss out on his turn for this match, but he knew he wanted to win later on in the series. He looked at The PPB All Starz and saw his Mom. He wished he was there, but then again he didn’t. He didn’t quite like the new guy, Rick.

Chapter 19: Strong
“Let me fill you in on what’s happened so far if you have just joined us! Team Bega battled against F-Dynasty and F-Dynasty had to forfeit because their blades were unable to battle! Team Bega has five points now! Then BBA Revolution fought against White Tiger X and won three-two! Next will be The Barthez Battalions against The Majestics and against The Blitzkrieg Boyz in a three way battle! Please select your first beybladers!” Zap’s voice rang through the stadium. The result was that the score was five-nil to the Barthez Battalions.
“Barthez Battalions win with a score of five-nil! Lets see the next two teams face each other! We will have The PPB All Starz face off against The Thuganomics!”
“Okay, lets get a five-nil,” Voke said.
“How about four-one?” Diana asked. “If you ask me to battle, I’ll loose.”
“Well prove us you won’t,” Eddie said. “Now.”
“Now?”
“Yeah, you’ll win Diana,” Chelsea said encouraging. Diana sighed, knowing she couldn’t win against her friends. She walked up to the platform and looked to see Michael walking up too. She sighed again and the platforms moved back, revealing a new dish.
“And here it is, a new beyblade dish! This one is called Tropical Paradise! As you can see, it includes a sea, a hotel, a swimming pool and lots of palm trees! Facing off first is Michael from the PPB All Starz and Diana from the famous group, The Thuganomics! And 3, 2, 1, Let It Rip!” Both blades flew into the dish and Michael started to show off, pushing Diana’s blade around the dish and into the water.
“This is too easy,” Michael said and planned a finishing move in his head.
“Stop it!” Diana screamed and her beyblade attacked Michael’s blade. His beyblade went flying into a palm tree and chopped off the top of it. She attacked again, but this time his beyblade went flying into the hotel. As the dust cleared, Michael’s beyblade had stopped spinning.
“It looks like Michael’s beyblade has stopped spinning! Here is your winner, Diana from The Thuganomics!” Zap announced and Diana was over-joyed.
“I won guys! I won!” she shouted as she ran back to her friends. Her beyblade followed her and her friends congratulated her.
“Right, I’ll go next,” Chelsea said. “Wish me luck!” Emily was her opponent.
“Now we have Emily from The PPB All Starz and Chelsea from The Thuganomics! Beybladers ready! 3, 2, 1, Let It Rip!” The two girls launched their beyblades into the dish. They attacked each other’s beyblades and Emily used her finishing move. Chelsea’s beyblade got hit with an incredible force of energy and just about stopped spinning.
“One more attack and you’re finished!” Emily said but stopped and watched in aware as Chelsea’s beyblade started to spin faster and faster.
“No Emily, I think you’re finished. Talia, Ice Storm!” Chelsea said and her beyblade obeyed, creating a small storm over the dish. It was made of ice and ‘rained’ ice and froze Emily’s blade as well as the sea and the swimming pool! “Now Talia, brake the ice!” The beyblade moved towards the frozen blade and broke the ice surrounding it. Emily’s beyblade fell out of the dish broken and cold.
“From The Thuganomics, Chelsea has taken the victory!” Zap bellowed. Chelsea’s beyblade flew into her palm and she walked back to her pals.
“Congrats girl!” Diana said as Chelsea came back.
“Great work!” Voke complimented her.
“Lets hope I can do the same next,” Eddie said and jogged up to the platform. He watched as Rick, his enemy came up to face him.
“Here we go,” Eddie whispered to himself and got ready to beyblade.
“And 3, 2, 1, Let It Rip!” The two beyblades collided in mid air and fell back, just about exiting the dish.
“Man, that was close,” Rick commented as he launched an attack at Eddie’s beyblade. Eddie dodged, but soon got hit by a strong attack from Rick. His beyblade flew into the miniature hotel, smashing it hard enough so that it fell down.
“Enough of this!” Eddie yelled. “ Madeo, fire spin!” Eddie’s beyblade started to spin faster and flames started to cover his beyblade. When they disappeared, his blade was glowing a bright red with heat. You couldn’t tell it was meant to be maroon. The beyblade rammed into Rick’s beyblade and sent it flying out of the dish. Rick sighed and bent down to pick it up. He grasped the beyblade and soon let go of it. It was really hot and he dropped it immediately.
“Sorry, it will take a while for it to cool down,” Eddie said and held his hand up. His glowing beyblade flew into his hand. “I’m used to it, so I don’t feel the pain.” He walked down off the platform.
“Rick’s beyblade has fallen out of the dish! Eddie from The Thuganomics wins!” Zap announced. “The score is now three-nil to The Thuganomics!”
“Whoa, they are good!” Max exclaimed.
“Yeah I know. They never thought that they were good, but they must have never had talent to compare it against,” Kenny said.
“So they can beat us easily?” Ray asked eagerly.
“Most likely, especially since we have him on our team,” Daichi commented and pointed at Tyson.
“Why you little-“
“Hey you guys, not in public please!” Hilary hissed.
“Yeah guys, fight somewhere else!” Max insisted. Voke shook his friend’s hand and he took his place on the platform and got ready to beyblade. He gazed at Michael as he walked up to the platform again.
“This’ll be easy. The others can beat these guys easy,” he murmured to himself.
“We now will have Michael from The PPB All Starz and Voke from The Thuganomics! 3, 2, 1, Let It Rip!” Zap screamed and watched the beyblades as they fought.
“Attack!” Michael yelled.
“Pathetic,” Voke whispered. “Right, Jassio Fridos, attack with Rock Rain!” The beyblade moved around in a circle and dug down into the surface. Soon enough the blade came back up to the surface and had dragged up lots of small rocks (but they looked quite big compared to a beyblade) and threw them at Michael’s beyblade. Each time a rock hit, the beyblade spun slower and slower. As the last rock hit it, it slowed to a stop.
“Michael’s beyblade has stopped spinning! Voke from The Thuganomics wins!” Zap announced.
“I knew that would be too easy!” Voke exclaimed and held up his hand and his beyblade flew into it.
“The score is now four-nil! If The Thuganomics win the next one, they will have five points and be tied with Team Bega! Next beybladers come up please!” Zap roared into the microphone as Diana went back up. Emily walked up again and got ready.
“And ready? 3, 2, 1, Let It Rip!” Emily’s beyblade went to the right of the dish, and Diana’s to the left. They both went for each other and collided with a big bang and a burst of bright light, blinding everyone for quite a few seconds. When everyone could see again, they saw that Emily’s beyblade had flown out of the dish, but Diana’s was still spinning in the dish.
“And your winner is Diana from The Thuganomics! She has made the score five-nil!” Zap shouted and looked at Diana. She was over-joyed that she had won again. The rest of her team had come to join her and were celebrating the fact they had five points.
“Man they are strong!” Max exclaimed and Daichi agreed.
“So what? We’ll still win, right guys?” Ray asked as he watched Diana walk back down and sit on the bench next to them.
“Yeah, we will,” Tyson said, also staring at her. “I’m going to congratulate them on winning their first Championship matches. Ray, you can come too if you want.” He lent over and whispered to him, “I know you like Diana, it’s too obvious.” Ray shoved him, but agreed and the two walked over to them.
“Congrats guys, you won your first few matches!” Tyson said cheerfully.
“Thanks,” Eddie replied.
“Yeah, you guys rock, but we’ll still beat you if we get a chance to face you,” Ray commented.
“No way!” Chelsea fired back.
“We’ll win no matter what it takes!” Diana continued from Chelsea.
“And we’ll get our friends back too,” Voke finished for the girls.
“Yeah, we will,” Diana murmured to herself.
“And I am sorry to announce this, but we do have to eliminate a few teams. Mr D has informed me of a new rule. So, the teams that didn’t put on a good performance and/or have the least amount of points will be eliminated from this Championship series,” Zap said sadly.
“I wonder who it’ll be,” Tyson asked and followed Ray back to their bench.
“Yeah. I hope we have enough points and put on a great performance,” Max said and waited for Zap to continue.
