At a tournament!

Two young boys were battling in a small tournament. "Go Sagittario! be the beyblade!" The young boy with green hair yelled to his small yellow bey. "Don't be so sure of yourself! Come on! Hit him hard!" yelled the green haired boys opponent. as the crowd cheered loudly.

In Town

A boy with spiky, flame red hair and yellow eyes was walking calmly down the sidewalks of a city. Next to him was a skipping girl. She had light blue mid-back length hair, and crystal blue eyes. Obviously, both were travlers, seeing how both were carrying bags over their shoulders. Suddenly, two young boys ran past the two new commers, shouting about missing a tournament. Both the boy and girl stopped, sharing a small glance and a smile.

The tournament

The crowd cheered loudly as the fierce battle continued. Both beys held nothing back as the collided over and over. "Take that!" the boy with green hair shouted. the boys bey hit it's opponent hard sending it out of the stadium. "Whoa! Bummer!" the boy's opponent shouted shock written over his face.

"That is a stadium out! The winner is... give it up for... Kenta Yumiya!" Blader D.J announced his voice booming. "He now advances to the third round!" Blader D.J continued. "Yeah! Alright!" Kenta cheered loudly. "Aww. This totally bites!" complained Kenta's opponent. The two boys held out their pointers, Kenta now had 1250 points, and his opponent now only had 840 points. "Boyeah!" Kenta cheered. The crowd cheered loudly for the victor, Kenta. Unknown to Kenta, that two bad looking bladers looked at him, evil smirks on their faces. "Yeah!" Kenta cheered happily, oblivious to the guys looking at him.

On the tower

Both the male and the female strangers were sitting side by side on a tower. The wind was blowing their hair as well as the boy's scarf. Both looked off into the distant town.

The tournament

"It's time for the Quarter Finals! First up Coji Yamina vs. Kenta Yumiya!" Blader D.J announced as Kenta ran up to his place at the dish. "Ready. Set!" Started the D.J. Both males put their beys on their launchers. "Three!" The D.J started the count down holding up 3 fingers. "Two!" the crowd continued holding up two fingers, "One!" Everyone yelled with one finger up. "Come on, let it rip! YAHH!" Shouted Kenta launching his bey.

Meanwhile

The red headed male was sleeping soundly, his arms were spread wide open, and he was using his bag as a pillow. He was letting off light snores. The blue haired girl however, was wide awake. She was studying her beyblade by the looks of it. Her bey was a light blue color, and had a few spikes with a howling wolf sticker. Her attention was soon dragged to her snoring compainion. She had a light smile on her face. The girl's gaze however lingered onto something in the males hand. It was a light blue bey with the head of a horse with wings on the bolt. His bey gleamed from the sunlight beaming on it.

With Kenta

Kenta let out a sad sigh. "After all that, I only got into the top eight." Kenta said gloomly. "But last time we watched, you didn't even make it to the third round. At least your getting, uh, little better." The chubby one said, "Right?" he said giving Kenta a small push. "Yeah, but you lost the first round, so you're getting a little worse," The taller skinnier one of Kenta's friends told the chubbier one. "Hey! I had a cold..." The chubby one defended himself with a blush. "Next time, you should try useing my beyblade, "The blond one said digging in his pocket, "You could get a lot further using an attack type. Don't you think?" He asked Kenta. Ohh, um, well, thanks, but, I..." Kenta slightly trailed off getting out his Sagitario, looking at it, "Want to get stronger with Sagitario, I think we make a good team." Kenta explained to his frineds, "I know we can win together. Right Sagitario, Ol'buddy?" he asked his beyblade with a happy blush. Both friends looked at him, "Y-yeah. Right. Well, I guess it doesn't mean anything if you don't win with your own beyblade." The nlond one smiled. "In the end, the only way to get better is to practice, huh?" the one with brown hair said, as they continued to walk. "Alllright! let's get our act together and practice!" the brown haired chubby one cheered. They passed a practice room and stared through the glass at the bladers practicing. "Let's have one more battle!" the chubby one stated. "Hey guys!" said the blond one, "Look!" he said staring. Both Kenta and his other friend looked in the same direction. It was getting really dark. "AHHH! How did it get so late!" the chubby one yelled, "I gotta get home!" "Battle you later Kenta!" the blond one yelled running with the browned haired one. "Keep spinning guys!" Kenta called after them.

A train drove on the trail built on the bridge above Kenta. Kenta was running happily under the bridge.Stronger, huh! If I keep practicing, the sky's the limit! Kenta thought while running.

Kenta's Daydream

Kenta was battling an opponent and quickly won. "We have our winner!" the D.J announced. Kenta cheered "Alright!" "Ladies and gentlemen! Please give it up for the winner of the National Tournement! The new owner of the title! Blader number one! Kenta King of the Beyblade Yumiya!" The D.J announced loud and clear. "All hail King Kenta!" shouted his chubby friend. "Long live the King!" shouted the blond one. Kenta was now holding up a trophy and had a crown of leaves on. "Thank you! Thank you so much everyone!" he said loudly, "I'd like to thank my beyblade, and my agent." Kenta said looking at Sagitario.

Back to reality

Kenta was running with his eyes closed. "I wonder if I should thank my mom!" he laughed still running. Then Kenta ran into something, causing him to fly onto his butt. He landed with a small grunt of pain. Kenta opened his left eye slightly, "owowowowowow-owch!" he said softly. he had a slight sweat-drop as he looked at three older males in front of him. The bigone looked down at him chuckling darkly. He put his fingers on his chin, "What's your problem?" he asked deeply. Kenta backed away fearfully, "Ah, I fell on my butt!" The three guys looked down at him. "What!? You think this is funny!?" the one left to the guy in the middle asked. "Huh, so you think it's a joke, buddy! A little punk like you running into Mr. Benkei, hm!?" the other on asked his hands on his hips. "B-b-b-b-b-but-but. Sorry I didn't do it on purpose." Kenta appoligised. Benkei growled loudly, causing Kenta to let ot a yelp and cring. "That's not exactly the point! Is it my little friend!?" Benkei asked tauntingliy. Kenta sweat-dropped, "Uh, it isn't?" he asked surrprised. "Nope. To make up for it, you can face Mr. Benkei in a beyblade battle. When you lose we gat all your points!" The one with spiky orange hair said. "Ah! A-all of them!?" Kenta asked panicing. "You guys are Face Hunters! Aren't you!?" Kenta asked standing up. "Hm, nice one. You noticed." The orange haired one commented.

"And we know you have quite a few points saved up!" the other one spoke. Kenta's lip quivered slightly, "No way!" Kenta spoke, "You can't have all my beyblade points! If you want them, just enter a face off and win them fairly! That's how it's done!" Kenta told them his hands bawled up into fist. The one with the spiky orange hair laughed, You seriously think we want to earn an easily 10 or 20 points using the standard rules!?" he asked. "Um," was all Kenta said before he tried to run. Two others came out cornering Kenta. "If you don't wanna lose your points, all you gotta do is beat Benkei." the on with the red shirt told Kenta. "Yeah, yeah, he'll show us these alsom skills of the compititions top bey, riiight?" The on with the red hair asked. Kenta whimpered overwhelmed. The five Face Hunters began laughing. Tears brimmed Kenta's eyes ready to spill. "Somebody... uh, somebody. SOMEBODY HELP MEEEEE!" Kenta yelled as a train passed on the bridge.

Back to the strangers

The red headed male was still asleep, a snot bubble coming in and out his nose as he snored softly. The girl was dozing off, holding her bey to her chest as she sat up. The snot bubble poped and the red head grunted slightly.

To Kenta

The Benkei grunted, "Yell all you want, no one is coming to help ya!" he told Kenta both ready to launch. "Alright! Let's get ready to battle!" Benkei yelled. Kenta gulped, tears still at his eyes threatning to spill. A Face Hunter began to laugh, "Here we go! Three" the one with the purple shirt said holding up three fingers. "Stop it! Please!" Kenta begged, "I don't wanna fight this kind of battle!" "Two." the one with the red shirt couted holding two fingers up. Kenta yelped, scared. "One!" the two in the back of Benkei yelled holding up one finger. "Let it rip!" Benkei yelled launching his beyblade. Kenta weakly launched his from all of his panicing. The two beyblades colided, Benkei's doing the most damage. Benkei laughed as Kenta whimpered. "My grandma spins harder than that!" he taunted. "Yeah, looks like your the top blade of babyblade!" one Face Hunter commented causing them all to laugh. "Come on Sagitario!" Kenta encouraged. Sagitario attacked Benkei's bey. "Oh, that tickles!" said Benkei, as his bey sent Kenta's bey flting. Sagitario hit the roof, "AH, Sagitario!" Kenta yelled. As sagitario came flying down, Benkei hit it again making it hit the wall. Benkei's bey kept hitting Sagitario until it hit the wall. "This isn't fair! Stop it already!" Kenta yelled at Benkei. "Well, then should I finish things off now?!" Benkei asked as Sagitario hit the ground. Sagitario was wobbling badly, giving signs of losing it's stanima. "Watch closly! You might wanna take notes! This is how you attack!" Benkei told him as his bey began to charge faster. "Waaaah! Sagitario!" Kenta yelled the tears coming back. A bright blue light passed followed shortly by another. The first light was a bey which knocked Benkei's bey out. The next was also a beyblade, standing protectivly infront of Sagitario. Benkei's bey went to his feet within seconds. "WHAT!? But how!?" Benkei asked. Both beys flew to the owners hands. The male let out a grunt, and the female did as well. "Wha" asked Kenta. Benkei growled. "Hey! Beyblading is supposed to be fun! You ganging up on someone!? Your not a true blader." The boy with the scarf said. "You can't just force your opponents to fight you! It's wrong! Plain wrong!" The girl said with a squeaky child-like voice said. "What did you say! Who do you think you are?!" growled Benkei. "The names Ginga. Ginga Hagane." Ginga introduced. "And I'm his little sis! I'm Crystal Hagane!" Crystal chiped in with a grin and a victory sign. "Ginga? Crystal?" Kenta asked. "Hmph, so you think your a tough guy!" Asked a face hunter. "Not a smart guy to get in the way of my battle!" Benkei growled. A face hunter gave Benkei back his beyblade, Benkei swiped and got it. "Alright then." Benkei told them, "If you really want to help this kid, then battle us" all the Face Hunter's spoke at the word 'us.' "No problem, big guy." Ginga spoke calmly to Benkei. "Yay! A battle! Hurray!" Crystal cheered in the background. "But thisis going to be a handicap match, two vs. five." A face hunter spoke. Kenta gasped, "What but that's not fair!" "Just zip it! This is how it's going down." The Face Hunter laughed. "So will you battle, or do you wanna just cough up all your points now?!" asked Benkei. "No don't do it! This is my battle!It has nothing to do with you!" Kenta told the two. "Don't sweat it kid." Ginga told him passing him, "I'm not gonna lose to this guy." "But!" Kenta protested. "Don't worry," said Crystal knelling by the boy, "Are you hurt? Let me have a scrapped knee, I'll help you with that." Crystal said diggin in her bag. "But, I thought..." Kenta trailed off. "Ginga's a strong guy. He doesn't need me in this fight." She told him biteing a bandage off the rest, and wrapping a small bandage on his knee. "O-okay." Kenta responded. "Ginga, kick some bey." Crystal told her brother, who chuckled. The Face Hunters prepared their beys. "Heh, this ain't no joke! Does this guy think he's funny or something! He's not even excepting help from the other brat!" The one with the red shirt said. "Who cares! Let's do this!" yelled Benkei, "Let it rip!" All five Face Hunters launched their beyblades, as well as Ginga. Whoa it's too fast! I can't even see the beyblade! Kenta thought as Ginga's bey ripped through the Face hunters so easily. All the Face Hunters were yelling in shock. Ginga chuckled holding up his pointer. The pointer went over 37000 points. The faces on the Face Hunters were priceless. "Over 30,000!" one yelled. "Unbelieveable! I've never seen so many points!" yelled another. "He's on a completely diffrent level! There's no way we can win!" yet another said. "I'll remeber this!" yelled Benkei as the Face Hunters fled. "Woooow!" Kenta said amazed by his power, "So cool."

Later

"That was alsome Ginga! Do you mind if I call you Ginga? How about Mr. Hagane? Ah, no let's go with Ginga. You rock Ginga. I'm Kenta by the way, uh, thanks for helping me! Uh, I don't know how to repay you. Uh, let's see what I got here." Kenta spoke really quickly, reaching into his pockets. "Half a donut, Mr. Froggietukis, uh." Kenta said pulling out half a donut, a stuffed frog, a bottle cap, and a hatched egg. "I got nothing." Kenta said. Ginga smiled at the boy. "Mr. Froggietukis? How does all that fit in you pocket?" Crystal asked tilting her head slightly. Kenta shrugged giving a light, "I dunno." "You don't need to thank me," Ginga smiled, Just tell me who those guys were back ther." Ginga asked curiously. "Huh? Who them? They're the Face Hunters." Kenta told Ginga. "The Face Hunters?" Ginga repeated confused. "They hunt peoples faces!?" asked Crystal holding both of her cheeks with her hands. "No," Kenta said looking at at Crystal who gave a sigh of relief. Kenta then looked at Ginga, " They force younger opponets into unfair battles, then they steal their points." Kenta told him. Kenta ran to catch up with Ginga and Crystal. "They've done it to a lot of my friends! Their just bullies!" Kenta said anger seeping into his voice. "Hm, it seems thugs like them, are everywhere." Ginga spoke. "Yeah, they're no fun at all either! Not one town we've been to doesn't have mean guys like them." Crystal said puffing out her cheeks. "Really? You guys aren't from here?" Asked Kenta, "Well where are you two from Ginga, Crystal?" Kenta asked, "Tell me." "Where from?" asked Ginga. Ginga hopped over the railing, and slid down in the grass layin down with his hands spread out. "Our home is right here." Ginga answered as Crystal jumped over sliding next to him. "Really?" asked Kenta. "Yeah, really." Ginga replied, "We're travling across the whole contry. In search of stronger rivals in order to become the strongest bladers." "The whole cuntry! By yourselves!" asked Kenta. "Yep." Ginga answered. "Wow! That's so cool! I bet you faught a lot of tough battles. That must be why your so strong. And I bet Crystal as strong as you!" Kenta said looking a Crystal... who was curled up sleeping. She let ot a soft snore, "I've got a ways to go until I'm as good as Ginga." she said in her sleep. Kenta sweat-dropped before turning his attention back to Ginga. "I don't want to bug you, too much. You must be tired, uh I'll let you rest. Anyway, how can I become stronger like you!?" asked Kenta. Ginga sat up, "Stronger?" he asked. "Yeah, it's normal for blader to want to become stronger, right." Kenta replied. "I know that I need to work on my attack power, and stanima. If only I could be as strong as you Ginga. Those Face Hunters wouldn't be able to make a fool out of me." Kenta said saddly. Ginga looked up at the stars. "Hmmm, It takes a lot of heart." He replied. "Takes heart?" asked Kenta. "Yes it does. Because a beyblade attacks you here." Ginga said putting a hand on his chest. "I don't... get it." Kenta said. Ginga layed back down. "Don't worry about it, just relax like this." "Li-like this?" Kenta asked laying down. "O-okay. Wooow!" Kenta stared in awe at the stars. "A beyblade's true strength, doesn't have anything to do with attack power or stanima. It attacks using the feelings of the blader connected with it. As if all the power of the cosmos, was being poured into it. You must put your heart, that is as big as the starry sky into it." Ginga explained. "Wow! Oh Wow that's heavy! Really heavy! Kenta exclaimed. "Hey, oh, hey Ginga." Kenta called. "Ginga, are you and Crystal leaving for the next place soon?" Kenta asked, cuase you know if you like, maybe you could stay in this town awhile." Kenta said sitting up. A light snore left Ginga causing Kenta's eyes to widen surprised, "Huh?!" "Yeah, let it... rip." Ginga talked in his sleep. Kenta laughed with a slight sweat-drop, "Nevermind."

In a warehouse

"So, you got your butts kicked, and then you just came crawling back here like little babies." A males voice spoke. A barrel was rolled at Benkei and the four other Face Hunters. All five of them whimpered a little. The rolling barrel stoped right before it hit Benkei. "I... I'm... sorry, but the guy was so strong." Benkei whimpered. "But if you faced him, Kyoya..." A Face Hunter spoke up trailing off a little. "Hm," was all Kyoya let out. "Y-yeah. You could crush him with your Leone." Another Face Hunter spoke. Kyoya's eyes narrowed, "What was that?" he asked. "How dare you speak the name 'Leone' without my permission." Kyoya spoke calmly, but some anger in his voice. "Uh, I-I'm sorry, sir." Benkei appoligized. "You will be reall sorry if you don't man up and take care of this Stinka, or whatever his name is." Kyoya threatened. "Hmm. Well then, just do whatever you have to do." Kyoya told them. A red headed girl standing behind him eyed Kyoya's back, slightly looking at the others as well. All she did was take a small, sharp intake of air, somewhat sighing.

The next Day

A bicycle bell rang as two bikers and a jogger ran past the riverside, where Ginga and Crystal were still fast asleep. A small bird landed on Ginga's chest pecking slightly. It flew off as a big shadow came over it. A growling was heard, Ginga opened his eyes slightly letting out a, "Huh?" When he looked up he saw Benkei standing over him smirking. "Having a nice nap?" Asked Benkei tauntingly. Ginga sat up, which revealed to him at least 16 Face Hunters surrounding him and his sleeping sister. "We're having a get-together. You're invited. But saddly it's a no plus-one invite, sorry." Benkei told him. Ginga slightly glared, letting out a, "Hmph."

In town

Kenta ran panting slightly. "I hope Ginga and Crystal is still here," Kenta spoke to himself, "I want him me some Beyblade tips today." Kenta continued to run, picking up a little speed.

When Kenta arrived at the river bank he looked around for Ginga. "Ginga! Crystal!" Kenta called looking. Looks like he left to go to the new twon after all. But I thought we could become friends.Kenta thought, his eyes widened as he spotted a sleeping figure. He slightly hopped over the railing sliding next to the figure. It's Crystal! So maybe Ginga hasn't left just yet! Kenta thought hopefully. He slightly shook the sleeping girl, causing her to groan groggily. "Crystal! Crystal!" Kenta called. The blue-haired girl sat up slightly rubbing her eyes. "Crystal! Crystal, oh, do you know where Ginga is!?" Kenta asked excited. "Yeah sure he's right..." she trailed off as she pointed to a spot right next to her. "There?..." she blinked twice, "Hey! Where's Ginga!?" she asked jumping up. She looked around quickly. "So you don't know either, huh?" asked Kenta. "Apparently... not." The girl spoke. "Well, come on! He might just be exploring this place a little bit!" Crystal decided cheerfuly. "You know this place more than I do, so why don't we search for him?" she suggested hopping over the railing. "Huh? Oh, uh, right!" Kenta replied hopping back withher and running in a direction Crystal right behind him.

They searched a few places, running around. Well, he couldn't have gone very far yet. Kenta thought. Crystal asked some people but they didn't know Ginga. The two ten year olds both looked place to place. He's... he's probably somewhere around town, he wouldn't have left without Crystal. Kenta told himself. A train passed over the bridge. I've gotta find him, Kenta thought determined. Both continued to run panting heavily, Ginga where are you? Kenta asked himself even more desprate then before. Both came to a stop by a road, just in time to see some Face Hunters. "Oh. Huh?" Kenta asked. "Those Face Hunters again." Kenta spoke. "What are they up to? Can't be anything good." Crystal answered her own question as the two shared a worried glance.

With Ginga

"Ginga Hagane. You thought you were pretty clever embarrassing us yesterday. So today we're going to return the favor. With the Face Hunters specialty... the 100 Bey Battle." Benkei told Ginga as 100 Face Hunters loaded their beyblades. Ginga chuckled his eyes closed, "Alright." He opened his eyes, "I accept. 100 bladers or 1,000." Ginga said it calmly. "Fine." Benkei grunted. "Ha!bNow you're going to pay for your big mouth." A Face Hunter shouted. "Yeah. We'll teach you what happens when you cross the Face Hunters." Another shouted. "Maybe you'd like a momment to kiss your points good-bye." Yet another taunted. All the face hunters laughed at the lame joke, "Good one." a Face Hunter told the one who had made the joke. Kyoya watched them from a hanging beam. "Well then, let's get this party started." Benkei spoke up, "Three." "Two." All the Face Hunters called, "One!" Ginga got ready. "Ginga!" Kenta shouted. "Let it rip!" Benkei yelled as he and all the other Face Hunters launched their beys. The beys were bouncing everywhere. This does not look good! Kenta shouted in his mind. "Their everywhere! There's so many beyblades! It's impossible to tell where a ricocheting Bey might come in from." Kenta said worried. But when the Beys hit the wall... doesn't it hurt there stanima at least a little? Crystal thought looking closely at Ginga. Benkei laughed, "Nothing warms my heart like a nice 100 Bey Battle. Beys slamming into eachother increasing their power and chenging their trajectory so they can attack from all directions." Benkei laughed again, "Good times." "He's doomed. No one survives a 100 Bey Attack." A Face Hunter spoke. "So hurry up and lose. We have lunch reservations." Another spoke. All the Face Hunters began to laugh, "Wait we do?" asked one of them. Ginga growled, he grunted as one almost hit him. "Look out, Ginga!" Kenta gasped tears welling up in his eyes. "Ginga!" Crystal yelled worried. Benkei laughed, Looks like your big buddy here is too scared to move." Benkei taunted. "Stop it! Stop it already!" Kenta yelled, "This isn't a real Beybattle. Ginga, just run!" Kenta yelled. "Ginga there's too many of them! This is an unfair match! Sometimes you have to forfit! Think about Peg-" Crystal yelled but was cut off by Benkei, "Zip it! Both of you, just zip it and watch!" Benkei yelled stomping his foot hard onto the ground. Crystal growled reaching for her Wolf. Kenta flinched. "Yes, both of you, watch." Ginga told them not facing Kenta and Crystal. Both looked up confused, Crystal stopped mid-grab. "I'm not going anywhere." Ginga told them. "But Ginga...?" Kenta asked. Has my brother lost it...Crystal asked herself. "Remember, a Bey's strength doesn't come from it's attack power or stamina." Ginga reminded. "What?!" Asked Benkei. "And it doesn't matter how many there are." Ginga spoke a blue aura surrounding him, "Let's roll!" Ginga got out his launcher, and let's not forget Pegasis. "It's show time, Storm Pegasis!" Ginga told his Bey closing his eyes, and then opening them. He put Pegasis on it's launcher. "Ginga!" Kenta yelled worried. "Let it rip!" Ginga shouted launching Pegasus. "No way!" You kidding me!" Benkei shouted. Pegasus ripped through the beys easily, as if they were as thin as paper. Kyoya stood up on the hanging beam, "That's impressive." Pegasus was unstopable. "Oh! Amazing." Kenta stared in amazment. "I knew Ginga was strong... but wow. He's surprises me each day." Crystal laughed softly. Now I understand what he was talking about. Kenta thought in realization. "Go! Pegasus!" Ginga shouted. Pegasus sped to unimaginable speeds, circling around it's master a blue light surrounding it. Wind picked up throwing and thrashing surrounding Beys. What a true blader's battle is...Kenta thought. Pegasus shown through, it's wings gliding. "What's happening?!" Benkei yelled. The tornado Pegasus created exploded sending Beys flying at the Face Hunters. "Aw hey! Don't run away! You guys!" Benkei called after the fleeing Face Hunters. Benkei jumped, slipping and landing strait onto the bar his legs were wide open unlucky for him. "Mommy." Benkei whimpered now falling off the bar. "You'll pay for this. Owie!" Benkei yelled fleeing holding onto the spot were the bar hit. Beys fell around Ginga, "Like I said, the diffrence between winning and losing... is the Blader's Spirit." Ginga said catching his Bey. "Yes! I see. That was alsome, Ginga." Kenta told Ginga running up to him. "You never seize to amaze me Ginga." His sister told him patting his shoulder.

Suddenly a voice called, "Ginga Hagane." Ginga turned around to see Kyoya standing on the hanging beam. "Storm Pegasus, huh?" Kyoya asked. "At last, my friend, it seems an opponent worthy of meand my Rock Leone has made himself known." Kyoya told Ginga showing him his Bey. "Who are you?" Ginga asked him. "I am Kyoya Tategami." Kyoya told him. Kyoya then laughed, "This should be intresting.
