The Kitsune Blader Written By:The Al Bhed Known as Amaria Original Characters by: look up Disclaimer:I own nothing originally from beyblade. I do own Dreea, Mark and Larisa, and the use of them without my permission will cause me to hunt you down. I'm serious. Chapter Four: The Second Round and a Strange Occurrence "Shunme! Attack now!" the pink and red blade rushed at it's opponent, knocking it up and out of the dish easily. "And Larisa is the winner! Team Canadia will once again be moving on to the next round!" the crowd broke out in cheers once more, watching as Larisa grinned and walked back to her team mates. It had been about a week since the incident at the beach, and Team Canadia had been winning all of their beybattles, as had White Tiger X and the PPA Allstars. However, in every round, it had always been Mark and Larisa battling. Not once had Dreea stepped up to the dish to fight for her team, and this was frustrating Rei to no end, as the neko-jin wanted to see her battle. "Why the heck doesn't Dreea ever battle." he wondered aloud, not realising his team mates had heard him. "Maybe she's actually a horrible blader, and that's why she never takes a turn!" Mariah blurted out as they walked out of the stadium. She was getting very annoyed with Rei's constant talk of the Canadian blader. "Mariah, be quiet. Don't voice opinions on things that you obviously know nothing about." Rei growled icily, walking past her. Mariah pouted and followed after, muttering 'meany'. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Back at the hotel, Dreea sat on her bed with her legs crossed indian style as she watched her team mates celebrate. "A toast!" Mark exclaimed, holding up a can of coke, "to victory!" Larisa laughed and toasted with her own can of coke, both proceeding to chug the pop. Dreea rolled her eyes at her friends antics, shaking her head in amusement. "Come on Dreea, join the fun!" Dreea shook her head at Larisa's request. "I won't celebrate until we have really won." Larisa sighed dramatically. "Your just upset because you haven't been able to battle yet." Mark stepped in front of the blond and waggled his finger in front of her face. "Remember, 'Risa, Dreea can't battle until it's necessary." Larisa glared, pretending to snap at his fingers with her teeth. "If she really wanted to, Dreea could battle!" they were into yelling now. "It would be to risky!" "I say it wou.....!" the argument was cut off by the closing of the door, and Dreea sighed. She had to get away for a bit, as the incessant chatter of her team mates was beginning to give her a head ache. She wandered quietly out of the hotel and down to the boardwalk, leaning her arms on the railing and looking out at the ocean. Breathing in the smell of the ocean deeply, she sighed, a small smile touching her lips. "Hey Dreea!" her ears twitching, Dreea turned to see none other then Max Mizuhara walking over with a big grin on his face. She smiled back a bit. "Hey Max." she replied before turning to look back at the ocean. Dreea had met Max briefly while on a trip to the USA, the hyper boy quickly becoming someone she considered a friend. Dreea started when Max began bouncing up and down, waving his arms around. "Hey! Hey Rei! Over here!" Blinking, Dreea turned, locking eye's with, of course, Rei Kon of White Tiger X. Walking over, Rei smiled. "Hey Max," he paused, looking over at Dreea again, "Hello Dreea." She nodded her head. "Hello Rei." she replied, before looking back to the ocean again. Rei continued to look at her for a moment before turning to Max with a smile. "So, we're all going on to the next rounds." Max nodded, still grinning widely. "Yup! It's really great to see some of the old teams, but it's fun beating new ones to!" the neko-jin laughed. "Is Tyson here?" "Naw, he said something about needing to tone his skills more before competing again." "Sounds like Tyson." "Oh hey, your teams going on to, right Dreea." the brunette blinked and looked at the two guys. "Huh? Oh, ya, we're moving on." "Dreea, can I ask you something?" she looked wearily over at Max. "Uh.....sure...." "How come you haven't battled yet?" Dreea turned back to the ocean again, seeming to think for a bit before answering. "Lets just say, I'm my teams 'Secret Weapon'." Max laughed, shaking his head. "Ah, I see. Always with the secrets Dreea." She gave them both a small smile, turning and leaning back against the railing so she was facing them. "Yup, I'm full of secrets. Anyways, I hop...." just like the week before, Dreea trailed off again, her pupils shrinking so that they almost disappeared. Snapping back to normal, her head whipped to the right, Max and Rei looking in the same direction, their eyes coming to rest on a man about to hit a stray puppy with a cane. Both blinked when Dreea suddenly bolted, grabbing the mans arm before he could bring the cane down, the man looking at her in shock. "If you dare move your arm, I'll report you for animal abuse." Rei and Max, who had run over, her the growl in her voice, and Rei was confused when he saw her bearing small fangs at the man. Said man gulped and nodded, running off when she finally let go of his arm. Dreea stared after him, a low growl continuously reverberating from her throat. Then she turned and scooped up the whimpering puppy, which appeared to be a husky of some sort. "Shh, your safe now." she whispered to the trembling pup, gently stroking it's back. Both Max and Rei were surprised when soft purring escaped her lips. The puppy stopped whimpering and snuggled into her arms, it's little tail wagging back and forth. "Your one of a kind Dreea." Mac commented, laughing a bit. Rei nodded in agreement. 'She sure is. Why the hell would she have fangs if she's human?' he thought, watching as she stood up with the puppy in her arms. "I'm going to bring her to animal shelter a bit later. Hopefully she'll find a good home." she said, smiling a bit. Max laughed, suddenly clapping his hands together. "I just remembered!" Dreea and Rei looked at him, "Dreea, your team is battling mine next!" Dreea blinked, recognition dawning on her face. "Ohhh...ya. In two days right?" Max nodded, grinning. "Maybe you'll actually battle this time." Dreea shrugged. "Maybe." XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Woot, got another chapter out.
