#Beyblade au

[aduah]

Now after having Sonia and Sasha backstory can we have Lara's?

If it's okay?

Lara... she's the most interesting one, actually!

She and Kay met randomly when she challenged him to a bey battle, defeating the world champion pretty easily! Since then, Kai always tried to have a rematch to get the chance to defeat her.

She first accepted, but she also did not like Kai's attitude, so she started refusing his requests.

Kai had to ask Takao (already dating Sonia) how to approach a girl. He started following advice: being nice and calm, listening to her, and strangely... he found himself hooked to the girl.

What he didn't know is that she was tied to the worst beyblade organization that will take a big role in my AU: the KuroBey. She's actually the sister of the boss, and he's using her to get data from Kai's bey.

She obviously has a change of heart and ends up betraying Lucien (her brother) and staying with Kai.

The two actually get married, have Daniel, and live a happy life... until she disappeared all of a sudden when Dani was 6.

Since then, Kai became obsessed with finding her, to the point he forgot he had a son to raise.

Where did she go?

She's still fighting against Lucien. She just doesn't want her family to be involved.

Most chaotic MFB Beyblade AU to pop up into my head. Part 3: Metal Fury

Part 1: https://www.tumblr.com/eternalnexuswarrior/745518197057404928/most-chaotic-mfb-beyblade-au-to-pop-up-into-my?source=share

Part 2: https://www.tumblr.com/eternalnexuswarrior/745524457497591808/most-chaotic-mfb-beyblade-au-to-pop-up-into-my?source=share

And then… Metal Fury. Ho boy, this is a wild ride.

Dynamis explains what happened with the star fragment, as his arcs’ episodes showed he was the one to split the star fragments, but didn't know where they went. So when Kyoya and Gingka revealed their beys evolved, he starts freaking out. And then when Ryuga and Yuki's beys are evolved, that's when he comes to the conclusion.

Dynamis: Did the star fragments literally go to every single one of us? Like is this the reason we are linked together?!

Gingka: Only one way to find out. Road Trip!

Thus starts the journey to find the other legendary bladers, except Ryutaro joins in with the group. Canon events happen, with some changes. The boys meet up with Aguma and Bao in the tournament (with Bao knowing the whole story, those two have a brotherly bond and you can't convince me otherwise). Johannes goes after them to recruit the beylin fist without knowing Aguma and Bao are already on the Legendary Bladers’ side, and the two decide heck it, let's spy on them, because it's gone well in the past. Next is to New York for Destroyer Dome, where we learn some new details about some of the boys. Dynamis wasn't too happy about the temple holding VariAres being destroyed.

Dynamis: “You destroyed your family's temple?”

Kyoya: “You're so screwed.”

Gingka (slightly terrified): “I don't think I've ever heard Dynamis this mad before.”

Yeah... don't destroy temples around the historian/lorekeeper/guardian. He's not a happy person when you do that.

Anyways!

The boys finally get to Mist Mountain, run into Ryuto, and scale the mountain. Via their spying, Aguma and Bao get into some battles, Johannes starts getting into Kyoya's head. Canon events continue up until the end, where instead after Kyoya leaves the temple, he just goes outside to take a breather. The other legendary bladers are there to pick up the pieces of Kyoya's emotions, and eventually Kyoya stays the night before parting to help find Tithi. Both Tithi and Chris’ searches fall around the same time frame, and everyone is happy. Except for one thing.

Pluto.

He barges in on the middle of this happy group and activates Dynamis’ curse like the smug little man he is. This puts all the legendary bladers on high alert to get to Nemesis’ revival site to save their friend. Some battles happen as Canon, although some interactions are adjusted for this AU. At some point it goes from the standard Chris VS Gingka, Yuki VS Cycnus, Dynamis VS Kyoya, and Aguma VS Tithi to Aguma, Kyoya, and Tithi teaming up to save Dynamis, and Gingka, Yuki, and Chris just wrecking Cycnus and causing mayhem.

Now where is Ryuga in all this?

Still training to get stronger and master L-Drago, and Kenta is determined to recruit Ryuga to help. The Sagitarrio blader took Ryuga's not willing to join in on the search as him not helping his friends (when it's really the opposite, Ryuga just isn't one for big groups). Eventually the misunderstanding is cleared up, and Kenta actually grows on the L-Drago blader. All the while he's just giving commentary on the whole thing.

Ryuga: Gingka your friend is not half bad as a blader as he thinks he is. He cracked L-Drago's face bolt this time.

Gingka: Oh wow! That's some strength!

The remaining events in the temple fall under Canon, Doji returns (and is the menace that he is except he throws his own bey in there to bait Ryuga to breaking formation). Ryuga actually stays with the group while they all heal, but still gets badly injured during the final battle and gives Kenta his star fragment (he's living though, screw the anime on that). The final battle happens and they all recover again together. Kenta ends up linked to their group during the final battle, and he's not expecting the chaos of it all in the days after that.Part 3 will probably cover personality differences and AU changes for our boys.

More self indulgent posting for Beyblade because why not- LET'S TALK ABOUT CAMP HALF BLOOD AU!!!

Picrew credit

First up my beloveeeed Tyson, aka son of Zeus. Being the son of the King of Gods of course he's blessed with a lot of abilities, but his control over the winds and lightning is the most powerful tool under his belt. He loses his mother when he's about 9 to mysterious circumstances which aren't clarified to him until much later. His stepfather at the time doesn't care for him much and sends him to a military school for problematic kids where he spends two years avoiding monsters until finally he runs away and makes it to Camp Half-Blood. It takes a few months for Zeus to claim him, till then he spends time at Cabin 11 (Hermes) where he makes fast friends with Charlie (OC). After he is claimed and assigned his first quest, he discovers during the quest that his mother just didn't die a mysterious natural death, but was murdered because of a plot instilled by Hera and then swears that he'll never answer to the goddess' call or prophecy (which proves almost fatal to him in the future as well). His sword-fighting skills are topnotch, thanks to his maternal grandfather a kendo specialist, who comes looking for him after he finishes a year at Camp Half-Blood and takes him in during the school year since then.

Hilary is the daughter of Athena and has been around at the camp the longest as her father her dropped her there when she turned 5 and didn't try to reconnect with her until she was much older. Despite many other kids being older than her, she's still the most sought-after for advice regarding quests because her strategic thinking is almost unparalleled within Cabin 6, however, she isn't allowed to join her first quest until Tyson rolls into the camp. She's sceptical of his presence because a child of the Big Three never not comes with problems but warms up to him eventually after they successfully complete a quest together. She understands his dislike towards Hera but tries to maintain a good relationship with the goddess herself, which eventually leads to them being dragged into a quest at the behest of Hera. This creates a big divide between her and Tyson, after the quest is over and the two go back for the school year, they don't keep in touch at all and don't speak to each other until the next summer. She's good with any kind of weapon, being the daughter of Athena, but prefers a bow and arrow.

Kai is the oldest camper and is the son of Ares. He's mostly quiet and barely noticeable around the camp until a battle comes by where you might hear his infamous scream that stops everyone in their tracks for a full minute helping him gain full control of the battlefield. He has very faint pyrokinetic abilities as well, but they only activate during stressful situations. Ares is also very open about claiming Kai as his favourite kid. His preferred weapon is a sword, and he's in charge of conducting the sword fighting lessons at the camp.He prefers to take solo quests despite Chiron's many attempts to team him up with other kids, and his first quest as a team is with Tyson (Tyson's 3rd Quest) when they're prepping to infiltrate a monster army base led by the Titans, but the two often butt heads and end up half failing the mission, leading a handful of monsters back to the camp which turns the whole camp into a warzone when they're not prepared for it. The only thing the two agree on is their dislike for Hera and the need to smash monsters into dust.

Now I thought a lot about Max but finally decided to make him a son of Apollo instead of Poseidon because he matches up so well with Will Solace in terms of personality and because with the stupidity/rashness levels of Tyson & Kai, they need a healer in the group. Apart from being one of the strongest Healers from Cabin 7, Max is also a talented archer and singer, and the most popular boy in Camp Half-Blood. Apollo is very openly proud of him and gifts him a magical quiver that never runs out of arrows after he completes his first-ever quest with Tyson and Hilary.

Charlie (OC) is the daughter of Hermes and usually prefers to sit out quests. She claims she's more interested in helping around at the Camp rather than monster fighting, but the truth is that after losing her sister (from her mortal parent) while making her way to Camp Half-Blood, she's just afraid that she's not strong enough to protect anyone else. The Oracle however picks her as the lead for a quest that requires stealing back important magical items from the Titan's monster army and through that quest Charlie is finally able to get over her fear of questing. She's friends with almost every Cabin and is usually the mastermind behind every major prank that happens at the Camp. She's a Capture the Flag expert and every year she makes other Cabins bid for Cabin 11's support using camp chores as leverage.

Rei arrives at the camp very late, and although his mother, Nemesis claims him instantly, since there is no cabin at the time for minor gods, he bunks at Cabin 11. He prefers not to divulge any information about his life outside of Camp Half-Blood which makes everyone at the camp naturally more curious towards him. He has his mother's blessing of perpetual good luck which makes him the most sought out companion for quests. Despite his cool demeanour and usually balanced outlook on life, Tyson notices that Rei doesn't really enjoy being bunkmates with Cabin 11 and at first, Tyson's protests for getting a Cabin in Nemesis's name aren't heard so he invites Rei to sleep at Cabin 1 which is obviously empty apart from Tyson. This doesn't sit well with anyone, but especially not with Hilary since it's breaking a major rule and tradition, and only sours things further between her and Tyson. Rei is grateful however for having more space for himself and he mentions this to Nemesis during one of his offerings, which ends up making the Goddess fond of Tyson as well so she always tries to make sure good luck is on his side. His preferred choice of a weapon is a dagger, though he does well with a sword as well.

[I don't think I need to spell out the ships since they're obvious but uh TyHil, KaixOc and ReiMax are endgame though there is a bit of drama involved with Mao and Mathilda (Aphrodite's daughters) in the middle.]

Fuck it, Beyblade AU

[cloudys-fics-and-art]

It's my birthday and I got time to draw!....Briefly.

But whatever!

I haven't been able to stop thinking on what could have happen after my fic, Leaving Your Tower is Easier in Fairytales. Just funny stuff for now like this two having to look for the legendary bladers together while Gingka and his gang have a muppet style roadtrip (Gingka wants to battle every "weird blader that got a shooting star").

I also gave then outfit changes because the last chapter must have damaged their old clothes.

Oh, and since they dont have WBBA resources to rely on, they stole Pluto's credit card.

[johannepetereric]

THIS PLOT BUNNY WON’T LEAAAAAAVE!!!

(If I already said this before, shhhhh, no, I didn’t! /j)

Ok, so Ryuga (He didn’t die, but I haven’t decided how and I probably never will) and Kyoya are together, and one of the Rules set in place when they’re in public is that Kyoya is supposed to eat everything set before him. Bonus affection, somewhen, if Kyoya actually ordered a food at all.

So, in a Ranma 1/2 crossover where Ryuga is participating in the Extreme Parkour tournament with a free ticket to China as the prize (Ryoga was the winner cuz Ranma 1/2 is a comedy at its core) because Training/He’s Bored/Wanna Be The Very Best.

We’re putting him in something that *isn’t* a Beybattle, and Ranma 1/2 is literally “Anything Goes,” where putting yourself in danger is often treated as a joke, so L-Drago can only be taken so fearful to the ninja-powers crew even if we keep the canon “IT CHANGED THE WAYS WARS WERE WAGED” and mini-nuke explosion steel-destroying strength as is.

Because Reasons, Kyoya is relegated to being a spectator, BUT we take Ukyo out of the equation (to balance out the number of competitors) where Kyoya went up and—basically he’s her sugar daddy until he and Ryuga have to leave, with how much he’s spam-ordering the okonomiyaki.

With Ukyo isn’t available in the tag-team, the next question is who does Ryuga team up with (I think the announcer guy said that they can’t go solo?). Do we pair them together? Do we go with my joke that Ryoga’s fuckin’ “On your left”-ing Ryuga all over Japan? Would it be funnier if someone else (maybe Ryoga still) won even if Ryuga TECHNICALLY won the battles he waged along the way, or he still keeps stomping everyone? Or do we stick with the classic that he’s a winner?

When Ryuga got back and met up with Kyoya-and-now-Ukyo, Kyoya already ate enough okonomiyaki that he would have to skip dinner to not vomit anything out. This makes Ryuga jealous cuz takes *great pride* in being the (main) cook, and Kyoya felt like pissing him off that day. (Imagine if (almost) every fucking time we cut back to Ukyo and Kyoya talking or some shit, he’s already on another okonomiyaki like that episode where the old guy had Ukyo feed him enough okonomiyaki that he begged her to stop. Just to punch the revenge gag in).

And he had by then had overtipped Ukyo just enough money to afford that ticket to China anyway lol

[aduah]

Greetings Aduah

I have something to ask you if it's okay

Cn we have Sonia's backstory?

I really like your ocs and au in general ❤️

I have a counter question: why Sonia?? Is it because I've rarely talked about her? Is it because she died young and never got the chance to be a mother???

And kjshfaksjdfhlaskdjhfasd thanks a lot!!! Glad you like my stuff!!! ;;;

Well, whatever's the reason, LET'S DITCH EVERYTHING I'VE EVER SAID ABOUT HER AND SASHA because I'm gonna re-write her (and consequentially their) backstory NOW!

Long text ahead, sorry!

Sonia and Sasha Vittoriani were born on March 7th, 1990 in a little town in Tuscany (yeah, let's ditch the "they're from Rome" thing because of personal reasons). They grew up in a quiet environment, surrounded by mountains but also a few minutes from the sea, so they got to experience both of them! Sonia was more of a sea person, while Sasha was more of a mountain one.

Except for this, the two were close and similar: they both liked hanging out with friends, shopping, music, and dancing. As kids, they liked to dress the same, but as teens, Sonia took more of a "tomboy" style while Sasha was pretty feminine. Still, their stiles would match, no matter what!

Sonia had a passion for dancing, stronger than her sister, that's why she attended dance classes since she was 6.

They both discovered Beyblade when the first world tournament was being broadcast and immediately decided they wanted to try it! And... they sucked, lol. But still, they loved the sport immensely, so much so that they started saving and making plans to actually go see one live!

They managed to do so for the GRev one when they got in Italy, and here, the first headcanon for Sonia and Takao starts.

While Takao was hanging around with Tao, at some point he walked away from all that "fashion shopping" to relax, and sat right next to Sonia. Needless to say, Sonia almost died when she realized she was sitting next to Takao! She tried to make small talk in English, but Takao pretty much ignored her and left when he saw his team in difficulty against BORG. Sonia couldn't shut up about the encounter the whole day with Sasha (notice: Sasha had the same experience (sort of) with Max, who was still pretty down because everyone was against the PPB, but the two managed to have a talk and also exchange contacts!).

Jump one year later; there was a contest and the winner would have the possibility to follow around the Japanese team for the whole duration of the WBC! The twins did their best and actually got picked, so they got to follow the reformed G Revolution around the world as they fought!

Takao and Sonia... didn't get along too much, because everytime Takao tried to teach her beyblade, she would fail. It was some sort of Daichi vs Takao all over again, but everyone teased that they liked each other. They... did. But they wouldn't admit it.

They start to talk more and hang out more, and at the end of the tournament, when the team wins, Sonia can't hold it and kisses Takao in front of the whole stadium. And from there, they're together!

They managed to make it work through distance thanks to raising technology, emails, and chats, and sometimes they would visit each other (of course, Max or Sasha would tag along for convenience!).

She was with him when he started having heart problems. She kept around when Takao revealed he still had a big crush on Kai and was jealous of Lara (Takao is actually poly). She did all she could to make it work, even if... things started to deteriorate from that confession.

She became anxious and jealous, the two would argue more than before, and probably they would've broken up if... she hadn't gotten pregnant.

She was sure that now Takao would stick around, and he tried his best, without telling her that he was being eaten alive by stress and anxiety, and his heart was holding all that weight.

It wasn't good.

Everything ended on a faithful night when Sonia was involved in a car accident with her older brother Gabriele.

Takao took the first plane he could find, but when he arrived, she was gone. And Yury was there.

He decided to move to Italy to take care of the baby, helped by Sonia's family.

Sasha held a grudge against Takao for a long time, saying that her sister should be there, not the kid. Takao too lived with guilt for years, trying to push it back to make sure Yury could grow up without worries.

I have a HC that, if she had survived, probably she would have lied to Takao and said the kid died, to cut all ties with Takao. She would also lie to Sasha, telling her the kid she saw around was someone else's. That would be a really depressing, bad ending AU, even more than the normal one.

MayBlade Day 2

Day 2 Prompt: School

————

There were several reasons Ginga wasn’t a fan of school.

Classes were boring, and sitting still for so long just made him so antsy, like he was just gonna explode- and it was scarily similar to the feeling right before he shifted unexpectedly, making it difficult enough to tell the difference to put him on edge all day, nearly every day.

On top of that, gym class was a nightmare.

It used to be that just about any liquid could cause him to shift, if enough of it touched his skin. Water thrown by someone, other people’s sweat (which was also really gross, but happened sometimes anyway), rain, even slipping and falling in wet grass or mud had caused the shift before, he’d lost track of how many times Hyoma had to cause a distraction- and usually get detention for said distraction- so he could scramble for a bush or the bleachers before his legs ceased to exist and his whole class found out his secret.

Sure, Kazuo was helping him get better control over it, but it’d still happened since then, so he still had to be just as careful. And he couldn’t tell his dad, he’d worked so hard to convince him that he had enough control to go to school with Hyoma in the first place, even if he didn’t like school as a whole, he didn’t want to lose it! The only real chance to interact with other kids his age!

…Even if he never really talked to any of them, only Hyoma, because all the other kids thought he was weird. The bad kind of weird, the kind that made people avoid you.

But he had Hyoma, and it was way better than being cooped up at home all day. So no, he didn’t like school all that much, but that didn’t mean he wanted to give it up.

…Today he found himself questioning that resolve when he remembered that his first class was without Hyoma, meaning he was left alone in his fighting to stay awake at way-too-early o’clock, listening to a teacher who was about as interesting as watching grass grow.

Said teacher’s voice had long since faded to the background, something about good vacations and ‘don’t let the giving spirit end’, and Ginga was just watching the little window in the door, silently taking note of what teachers and staff walked by.

And that was why, when someone stopped in front of the door, Ginga was the first to sit up, and the only one not surprised when the door opened, a girl his age poking her head in to look around.

“Excuse me young lady,” the teacher- whose name he couldn’t remember for the life of him, but he was pretty sure it sounded like an animal- squinted at the girl over his glasses, the impassive drone of his voice changing just slightly.

“What are you doing in here? You should be in class.”

The girl huffed out a sigh, walking in completely and letting the door swing shut behind her. She smiled politely at the teacher, clasping her hands behind her back.

“This is my class, actually, my name is Madoka Amano. I just transferred here, and there was nobody at the front desk when I came in so I decided to come find my class myself, so I wouldn’t be even more late.”

Ginga perked up, a smile sliding onto his face.

Someone new? In the middle of the school year? Someone who didn’t just know him as the weird kid always picking fights with bullies and trying to avoid gym?

“...Ah, yes,” the teacher responded after shuffling through the papers stacked on his desk, “my apologies, er- welcome to class then. You can go ahead and take a seat, and then we’ll get started.”

The girl- Madoka, he really wanted to remember her name- nodded and turned to scan the room, her gaze briefly falling on Ginga before landing on the empty desk next to him, and he about started bouncing in his seat when she walked over to sit next to him. He shot her a friendly grin that she actually returned as she pulled out her books and things.

Okay, maybe it’ll be a little better in this class now!

He turned to the front to try and pay attention, now wide awake with the prospect of a possible new friend.

————

…Nope, he still had no idea what had been talked about, too distracted by the new girl to pay much attention.

But hey! That was a problem for later Ginga, now Ginga had someone to introduce himself to!

He practically leapt from his seat to stand next to her desk, smiling again when she looked at him questioningly. “Hi, I’m Ginga!”

Madoka looked surprised, but to his delight she chuckled, adjusting the goggles on her head before she stood up.

“Nice to meet you, Ginga! I’m Madoka, if you didn’t hear before- I’d love to stay and talk, but I’m apparently finding my own way around and I don’t wanna be late…”

No wait but you seem nice-

“I-I could help you find your next class!” he offered quickly, bouncing in place a little, “I know the school pretty well, and my next teacher usually doesn’t mind if I’m a couple minutes late anyway!”

For a moment he thought he might be overstepping- she made a funny face that he really didn’t know how to read, but then she smiled and hurriedly grabbed the rest of her things. “If it’s no trouble I’d really appreciate that! My next class is social studies, but I wasn’t given any teacher names, so…”

Yes!

He did a little dance in his head, because he actually did know where that would be!

“Yeah, I gotcha!” he nodded, showing another of his brightest grins, “c’mon, it’s not far!”

They kept talking as he showed her the way to her next class, and apparently she was transferred so suddenly because she’d just moved here, and didn’t want to wait so long to start school again.

(Personally, Ginga would wait to wait a lot longer before going back to school but to each their own he supposed)

He also found out that she’d lived around here before, when she was little, and she was really hoping to find her best friend from back then too. She promised to introduce them if she did, because she thought they’d get along well.

By the time Ginga made it to his next class, he was more than just a few minutes late. Luckily his teacher believed that he was helping out a new student and not just goofing around, so he was able to sit in his usual spot without any trouble, kicking his feet excitedly and letting out a giddy little laugh when Hyoma sent a funny look his way.

I made a new friend!

How could he be expected to focus on class after that?

————

“She might be in our lunch period, yeah,” Hyoma allowed, having to hold Ginga back from sprinting off as soon as he said it. “But that doesn’t mean you can just run right up to her, you helping her to her class doesn’t mean she’ll sit with you.”

It wasn’t that he didn’t want Ginga to have more friends, he just didn’t want him getting his hopes up- people could be mean, and he very rarely saw it coming.

“I know, I know,” his friend sighed, though he didn’t look very deterred, “but really, I think you’ll like her! She’s really smart, and she wears these cool goggles, I’ll have to ask where she got them-”

Ginga was still talking as they entered the cafeteria, but Hyoma didn’t bother stopping him- it wasn’t like he could be heard over the roar of chattering students, everyone talking about anything at once, he could barely hear himself think, let alone whatever someone else was talking about.

(Hyoma didn’t like the cafeteria, not one bit. Too loud, too crowded, and too few places to escape if Ginga started getting fishy in the middle of lunch, it made him nervous)

He was already heading for their usual table in the corner, near a door and as far away from where the bullies sat as possible, so he nearly toppled over when the ball of energy attached to his arm suddenly yanked him in another direction entirely.

“I saw her! She’s over here!” Ginga cheered over the rest of the crowd, and Hyoma could only sigh and go along with him, shooting their empty table a longing glance.

To Ginga’s credit, the girl was smiling and waving them over, so he couldn’t worry too much about some misunderstanding, but the shorter boy sitting next to her looked uncomfortable- or maybe embarrassed? Embarrassed to be seen with them?

“Hey Madoka!” Ginga greeted his apparent new friend cheerfully, plopping down in the seat across from her without a care in the world. “This is my friend Hyoma- and who’s that with you?”

Annnd now he had to sit down. Curse extroverts.

“Hey Hyoma,” Madoka smiled at him as well, then nudged the green-haired boy, who’d been avoiding looking at either of them thus far. “This is Kenta, I met him in my math class.”

Shy? Or did he not want them over here?

...Actually, he was pretty sure this kid sat behind him in history, so it wasn’t like they were complete strangers, they’d probably had brief conversations here and there.

Ginga hadn’t picked up on whatever it was, but that was no surprise- he was only ever observant when other kids were getting picked on, a trait Hyoma would assume was trouble-seeking if he didn’t already know that trouble found him either way, and Ginga just liked helping people along the way.

“Come on, Kenta,” he faintly heard while he was digging through his lunch bag (one of the many upsides to Ginga’s dad’s store- they never had to buy stuff for lunch) and he looked up to see Madoka nudging Kenta again, a little frown on her face, “see, he’s not intimidating- he’s like a puppy!”

He’d watched Kenta in class before, and shy was not a word he’d associate him with, so this was already abnormal. But ‘like a puppy’ was clearly Ginga, who else? And in that case- intimidating?

Hyoma was of the mind that Ginga and intimidating barely belonged in the same language as each other, let alone the same sentence.

But despite that, Kenta definitely looked nervous, tugging at a bracelet and glancing between Ginga and the table.

(Ginga was, of course, being as un-intimidating as possible, inhaling a sandwich like he breathed ham instead of air- which just reinforced the question of what the heck had Kenta seen)

“Um!”

They all jumped when Kenta spoke up abruptly, and Hyoma had to give Ginga a good slap on the back when his ham-breathing failed him before he could focus on the other boy, who had stood up and was now staring intently at the redhead, lunch tray seemingly forgotten.

“Ginga, I- I wanted to thank you!”

Ginga just stared at him, sandwich remains in hand.

“Uh- why? What for?”

The embarrassment returned, Hyoma could tell in the way his shoulders drew up, but Kenta kept going.

“Um, well- on my first day, Benkei and some of his gang were picking on me, b-because I was new, ‘nd I’m short for my age, and everybody was just walking by and ignoring it, but- but you didn’t!”

He sat down again, but this time he was smiling at Ginga, looking grateful. “You tried to stop them, and even when Kyoya himself came over you stood up to him! It was- I thought it was really cool, and I never got to thank you for helping me, so…”

…Huh, now that was a new one for both of them. All Ginga usually got for shutting up Kyoya was detention.

He took it in stride though, absolutely lighting up in a grin, already talking a mile a minute, and Hyoma couldn’t help a chuckle escaping when Kenta actually joined in.

He went to give Madoka an amused look, since she was clearly more of the quiet sort, but she seemed distracted, mouthing what looked like ‘Kyoya?’ before looking around the cafeteria, eyebrows furrowed and a frown tugging at her lips.

That’s strange, he noted, frowning to himself, Ginga said she lived here when she was younger, maybe she recognized his name?

He looked away when she looked back, not wanting to be caught staring, and settled in to quietly eat his lunch, curious but content to watch Ginga and Kenta go back and forth about some card game he’d never heard of, and another brief look at Madoka showed much the same, though she also piped up with a comment every so often.

…Still, through the rest of lunch he couldn’t help but notice that she didn’t eat much, and kept looking around with that same frown- one time she looked angry, and she didn’t speak up after that, just picking at her food.

Hm, something to keep an eye on.

Two! He had two new friends! In one day!!

Madoka was nice, smart, actually seemed interested in what he was saying, and since she was new to the area he could show her around, take her to his dad’s store and then show her all the best places to hang out and get food- or, well, did it count as new if she’d just moved back? Was she re-new? Maybe things were still pretty similar- but they hadn’t moved here until he and Hyoma were ten, so she definitely didn’t know the shop, he could start there and see what else might be new to her, maybe.

And Kenta! He remembered Kenta, he’d just started this year, and Kyoya’s goons loved going after new kids- he needed to remember to warn Madoka about that- and he’d seen them picking on him on the way to lunch, but didn’t get to talk to him afterwards because he spent that lunch in the office for ‘starting a fight’.

(Kyoya’s the one who always started it, he didn’t understand why he never got in trouble for being such a bully to everyone…)

But now they’d gotten to meet properly, Kenta even wanted to introduce him to a new game, and he and Madoka already got along, and they both got along with Hyoma even though he was quiet! He was gonna have so much to tell his dad when he got home, and even more to tell Kazuo when he came over tomorrow, it was gonna be great.

“See you guys tomorrow!” Kenta waved to them before hurrying off to the bus line, while Madoka stayed with him and Hyoma as they left the school, though she’d been looking around a lot since school had ended- maybe she was still looking for that old friend she’d mentioned?

Oh, that reminded him-

“You never told me your friend’s name!” he pointed out, getting the attention of both (both!!) his friends, Hyoma curious and Madoka embarrassed.

“Right, yeah, forgot I mentioned that, heh…”

She looked away, suddenly seeming uncomfortable with the subject, “um, I think I might’ve found him already, I just haven’t gotten a good look at him or any chance to talk to him yet…”

“Oh, really?” he noticed her change in mood, of course he did, but couldn’t figure out why she’d be uncomfortable, so he just started looking around too. “Do you see him now, or do you think he takes the bus?”

He could hear a lot of people laughing, which could either be absolutely nothing or Kyoya, but he tried to ignore it on the off chance it was nothing.

Madoka snorted, and he caught her looking towards the laughter too even when she rolled her eyes. “I think his dad would have an aneurysm if he ever stepped foot on a bus, but on the other hand I doubt he cares enough to pick him up, so… He probably walks, if it’s actually him that I…”

She trailed off as the crowds thinned out a bit, and it was revealed that the laughing was from Kyoya’s group, gathered around a kid he vaguely recognized from one of his classes.

Kyoya was right up front, of course, with that smirk on his face that made Ginga want to punch him. Or bite him.

…Mostly bite.

“Just leave it Ginga, there are too many of them,” Hyoma murmured from his shoulder, but he couldn’t just stand there when those jerks were tormenting someone, it wasn’t like the teachers would help, so who else would stop them when everyone else just ignored-

His train of thought was abruptly derailed when Madoka shoved her backpack into his arms and marched towards the group, shoulders set like his dad when he dealt with people trying to steal and a scowl on her face that could probably rival Kyoya’s.

“Kyoya Tategami!”

…Which was where she was headed, apparently- he was surprised at how loud she could be, nearly every kid still in the area was watching her as she stomped up to Kyoka and crossed her arms, glaring at him like she wanted to punch him now. “What are you doing!? What, did you just lose all sense of kindness and decency when I moved away??”

Ginga gasped, and next to him he heard a quiet ‘no way’ from Hyoma as they- and everyone else- watched Kyoya’s eyes go wide with shock, the school-wide bully actually taking a step back.

“M- Madoka!?”

He looked at Hyoma, his friend looking back with just as much confusion, and for once, they ran to the gathered crowd together.

I gotta hear this story-

Most chaotic MFB Beyblade AU to pop up into my head Part 2: Metal Masters/Fury

Alright, Continuing on from Part 1: Metal Fusion of my what if the legendary Bladers are all telepathically linked together AU. If you don't understand, link to part 1 will be right here: https://www.tumblr.com/eternalnexuswarrior/745518197057404928/most-chaotic-mfb-beyblade-au-to-pop-up-into-my?source=share

Okay then.

Metal Masters is relatively the same. All the battles, all the moments like that. The only two real thing that happen is 1) Ryuga involved in the Dark Tsubasa stuff as soon as they figure it out. Hyoma finds him, but he already is aware of it due to the group telepathy giving him the side commentary.

Gingka: Hey Ryuga? The darkness from L-Drago is possessing Tsubasa. Can you help?

Ryuga: You're not serious.

Kyoya: Nope, it just happened.

Gingka: And he kinda fled the hospital.

Ryuga: Alright, give me a bit to head out and find him

(Later)

Ryuga: When were you guys going to tell me he was in Italy

Kyoya and Gingka: He was in Italy?!

The other major thing, and this leads to the most goofy and chaotic moment, is Kyoya's stupid but good idea. And said idea is to visit Dynamis on Mist Mountain before the African team qualifiers. And the reactions are immediate.

Kyoya: “I got a stupid idea.”

Tithi: “Uh oh.”

Chris: “This should be good.”

Gingka: “Kyoya, let's not be reckless.”

Dynamis: “... For some reason I wanna hear it.”

Chris: “Dynamis!?”

Kyoya: “Where's Mist Mountain located? I'm looking at African qualifiers and I want to see if it's nearby to pop in.”

Gingka, Aguma, and Chris: “What?!”

King: “You can't just casually drop a bomb like that man!

Ryutaro (Again, see first post): “You just broke my cousin here! He is literally shell shocked.

So Kyoya goes a few days ahead of time, meets Dynamis’ family, comes to visit Mist Mountain with Ryutaro, and the first thing he does is give this Boi a hug. Dynamis gets emotional, and also gets a solar powered radio with some good frequency so that he can listen to the battles. Outside of those two Canon follows relatively smoothly.

Part 3 will cover metal Fury as I just found out Tumblr has a word/letter limit. Okay then.
