Beyblade Burst - Main Antagonist Introductions

Beyblade Burst has a series called Meet The Bladers, which goes through certain people in the series and describes them. It often includes scenes of the people themselves from episodes. This post is a collection of all the introductions of the main antagonist bladers who have been part of the Meet The Bladers series. Before that, a list of who I consider to be the main antagonists, listed per season.

Disc 1 refers to someone who takes the role until the true main antagonist comes along, whether as a rival, a minor villain, or any other role. An antagonist is not a villain and can even be an ally/friend of the protagonist that they battle.

As it is for bladers only, there was nothing of this kind for Theodore Glass. Weirdly, Arthur Peregrine doesn't have one despite being the overarching main antagonist of Rise/GT. Shu and Spryzen are listed on the same line as Spryzen possessed Shu and became the main blading antagonist alongside its blader.

Lui Shirosagi | Lost Lúinor Nine Spiral (The Spear of Ruin - Judeo-Christian mythology - Basis: St. Longinus and his Holy Spear)

Hanami: He's won 4 National Tournaments in a row, and he's one terrifying force of nature. Please welcome Lui Shirosagi!

Crowd: *Cheering*

Nika: He's the one who beat Shu?

Right, and their rivalry's intense. See, Lui's frighteningly powerful and he knows it.

Lui: I only accept an opponent's challenge if they seem like they'd be worth the effort.

To him, other bladers are just waiting to be beaten.

Lui: You're a terrible blader.

Valt: Huh?!

Totally reckless, (Lui: Heh heeeh.) Lui couldn't care less what happens to anyone (Valt: Aah!) as long as HE wins.

Valt: You almost hit me, dude.

Lui: Ha, whatever.

Lui/Valt: Let it rip!

Lui's bey is an incredibly unique attack type. Lost Lúinor spins counter-clockwise. It's most trusted move?

Lui: Lost Spiral!

Lúinor: *Roars*

Watch Lui and let it rip on Beyblade Burst.

Lui: I'm gonna smash your dreams into bits!

Joshua Burns | Blast Jinnius 5Glaive Guard (The Wind Genie - Arabian/Islamic mythology - Basis: The Jinn/Djinn/Genie)

Today, we're taking a look at one of the strongest teams in the world, America's Raging Bulls. Their owner, Theodore Glass, is always 5 steps ahead of the curve. (Free/Shu: Rip!) He cherry-picks (Fafnir: *Roars*) top talents to beef up (Spryzen: *Roars*) the Bulls roster. For instance, Japan's wonderkid, Shu Kurenai.

Raging Bulls Staff Member: He's won more matches than the two of you combined.

Then, Glass poached the world champion of Beyblade, Free de la Hoya.

Theodore: I've got very high hopes for your performance.

These days Glass has tapped up blockbuster movie star and Beyblade supernova to be the captain of the Bulls, the inimitable...

Joshua: Joshua. Heh. Joshua Burns.

Joshua: We're ready!

Word is, Joshua joined the Raging Bulls just to prove himself to Free. Free's kind of his idol.

Joshua: Wait! Free! I'm coming! We'll grab lunch! Do you eat lunch?!

And Joshua definitely has a reputation to uphold. He's one of the Big 5, the top bladers in the world. His bey, Blast Jinnius, is a defence type featuring two techniques loaded with star power. Cyclone Wall raises Jinnius during battle to keep it free from harm.

Joshua: Time to end this thing!

Then, it's curtains with Cyclone Counter. Jinnius' layer slams down on its opponent with a powerful show-stopping strike. Can Joshua take the Raging Bulls to the top of the box office?

Joshua: I smell a best actor nod!

Watch Joshua and the Raging Bulls and let it rip on Beyblade Burst Evolution!

Free de la Hoya | Drain Fafnir 8 Nothing (The Golden Dragon - Norse mythology - Basis: The cursed dragon/worm Fáfnir)

Check it out! It's Free de la Hoya.

Valt: You recognise that guy?

Rantaro: The world's top blader? Of course I do.

Not only is he the captain and secret weapon of BC Sol, Free is a blader of seemingly superhuman abilities. I know, I know. He's not what you'd expect.

Free: *Yawns*

Valt: He seems so... bored.

Rantaro: Uh, dude? You look like you've been hypnotised or something.

Lots of people think Free's a bit of a space case. Not so! He just, uh, marches to the beat of his own drum. As BC Sol's owner, Kris is one of few who truly understands Free.

Trad: Hey, Free! Pay attention!

Kristina: No, never mind. Just leave him.

At first glance, Free may seem lazy, but he trains harder than anyone else. He's unique in every way. Even Free's bey launch is one of a kind.

Valt: Where's your launcher?

Free: Not using one.

Valt: Huh?

Speaking of his bey, Drain Fafnir, it may look shaky, but it gets stronger each time its hit by a clockwise-spinning bey.

Free: I'm absorbing your power.

Silas: No bey can do that!

Free: Well, mine can.

Free: Rip!

Because of his out-of-this-world skill, plenty of teams have their eyes on Free.

Theodore: What a shame he's on the wrong side. He'll come to us.

Free loves BC Sol more than anyone, and he'll do whatever it takes to help his team, even... leave?

Valt: *Gasp*

Shasa/Rantaro: *Gasp*

Kit/Honey: *Gasp*

Free: See ya around.

Watch to find out just what Free is up to next on Beyblade Burst Evolution!

Shu Kurenai | Legend Spryzen 7 Merge (The Protector Giant - Cornish mythology - Basis: The Spriggan)

Spryzen (possessing Shu Kurenai) | Spryzen Requiem 0 Zeta (The Protector Giant - Cornish mythology - Basis: The Spriggan)

Version 1:

Introducing Shu Kurenai.

Reporter: Many are calling him the most talented blader to emerge in over a decade.

A member of the Supreme 4, the greatest bladers in the country, he gets the game inside and out.

Toko: Awesome!

Nika: He's so cool!

(Fangirls: *Fangirling*) Beloved by fans the world over...

Nika: Shu, we love you!

...Shu Kurenai is a Beyblade superstar. But fame hasn't changed him. Shu remains humble, hard-working and trains all the time. With his bey Storm Spryzen and their amazing signature move Counter Break, (Spryzen: *Roars*) Shu's putting a new spin on the game that's all his own. But above all, Shu is cool, cool, cool!

Valt: What do you say?

Shu: I'm not really a club-joining kind of guy.

Valt: Aaah?

That's a classic cool guy move.

Valt (muffled due to mouth being full): What do you call this stuff?

Shu: It's called spaghetti carbonara.

(Valt: Mmm! Oh!) And he can cook too?!

Watch Shu and let it rip on Beyblade Burst!

Shu: Hmm.

Version 2:

Shu Kurenai is missing.

Valt/Rantaro: Huh?!/Ah!

Wakiya: I know where to start our search!

Wakiya: I've found it.

Deep in the dangerous jungles of Mexico...

Daigo/Rantaro: Hm?

Snake: *Hiss*

Valt: Aaaaaaaaah!

...Rumours tell of a secret Beyblade society. Their single-minded objective to train the strongest, most savage bladers (Two snakes: *Hiss*) of all time. This is the (Snake: *Hiss*) Snake Pit.

Security: Enter if you dare.

(Snake Pit bladers: Ah!) Here, only the strong survive.

Snake Pit bladers: *Sounds of hard training.*

Theodore/Black Eye: Failures must leave./*Gasp* Aa!

Black Eye: Aaaah!

No underground society would be complete without a shady ruler.

Theodore: You may call me Ashtem.

And his shadier disciples. Hey, those beys look familiar.

Daigo: They're just like ours.

They've got shadow versions of everyone's beys?! Who ARE these copycat bladers? Ashtem's most powerful disciple is...

Shu: Red Eye, and my bey is... Legend Spryzen.

Valt: Huh?!

Hey! That's Shu Kurenai's bey! What's going on here?!

Shu: I know how to harness its true strength.

Legend Spryzen is a balance-type bey that can spin both clockwise AND counter-clockwise.

Shu: Axe Launch!

Spryzen: *Roars*

Valt: Aa- aa.

Is there any stopping Red Eye (Spryzen: *Roars*) and the rest of the Snake Pit? Find out on Beyblade Burst Evolution!

Kurt Baratier | Boom Khalzar 7Under Hunter (The Hurricane Bird God - Mayan mythology - Basis: The war serpent deity Kukulkan)

Bisuke: Hooligans, punks and goons, draw near! Time for you to cheer as your dear Emperor is here.

Kurt's gang: *Cheering*

Introducing the one and only Kurt Baratier. Before Free became (Free: Rip!) number one, Kurt Baratier, (Kurt: Heh heh heh) a.k.a. The Emperor, (Kurt: Let it rip!) was the world's top blader.

Kurt: I rule the blading world.

He reigned over the rankings without a single loss to his name. Having risen to the top of his game, Kurt grew bored with the official tournaments, then one day, he left the blading world altogether. He began battling in an underground blading ring with seriously high stakes.

Kurt: If Valt loses, I take his bey. It's that simple.

This is where Kurt holds court over his motley crew of loyal subjects.

Bisuke: Coming through, out of the way! Didn't anyone ever teach you to make way for royalty?

Bladers: Nnh?

Bisuke: Ngeeheheheheheeh.

His bey, Boom Khalzar, is a high-speed attack type.

Kurt: Arise, Khalzar!

Khalzar: *Roars*

It commands 2 regal techniques, Thunder Attack and...

Kurt: Bolt Attack!

Now, Kurt's returned to official Beyblade competition (Crowd: *Cheering*) as a (Kurt: Hnn hnn) wild card in the (Bisuke: Yeah!) International Bladers Cup. (Gang member: Show no mercy!) But why? Has The Emperor set his royal sights on reclaiming his crown? (Khalzar: *Roars*)

Kurt: Be very afraid. Things are only going to get worse from here on in.

Watch Kurt and let it rip on Beyblade Burst Evolution!

--------------------------------------------------

Valt Aoi | Wonder Valtryek 12 Volcanic + Turbo Valtryek Zenith Evolution (The Battle Goddess - Norse mythology - Basis: The Valkyrie)

Valt: *Gasp*

Valt: Let's do this thing!

This is (Valt: Yeeeaaaah!) Valt Aoi.

Valt: I'm gonna crush this!

Yeah, (Valt: *Gasp*) Valt's enthusiasm and energy are way off the charts.

Valt: Alright!

Sometimes, it makes up for the fact he (Valt: Aaaaaagh!) tends to lose his cool. Valt's heart's in the right place, and he's a great communicator.

Valt: *Imitating a bey battle*

He makes friends wherever he goes. Even with his toughest Beyblade rivals. Beyblade is everything to Valt, (Valt: Let it rip!) and with his bey, Victory Valtryek, (Valt: Let's go!) and their awesome signature moves...

Valt: It's time for a Rush Launch!

...They may be headed... to the top of their game.

Valt: Together we're gonna become the best Beyblade team in the world!

Join Valt and let it rip on Beyblade Burst!

Valt: Time for my happy dance.

--------------------------------------------------

Hyde | Dread Hades 11Turn Zephyr' (The Underworld God - Greek mythology - Basis: The underworld deity Hades)

Phi | Revive Phoenix 10 Friction + Dread Phoenix 10 Friction (The Immortal Bird - Greek mythology - Basis: The Phoenix)

They say he appeared from a fallen meteor.

Naru: Wait, do you think he's an alien?

No matter what the rumours say, the facts are, Phi is one terrifying opponent.

Phi: It seems your eyes have seen something they never should have stumbled upon.

His bey, Revive Phoenix, is a defence-type bey with a mind-blowing secret.

Aiger: We did it! Nngh. It didn't burst.

That's right. The first time Phoenix bursts it only loses its outer armour. It can even use its armour as a weapon.

Phi: Revive Crush!

Phi draws his power as a blader from his intense resonance with Phoenix. He senses a similar connection between Aiger & Achilles and it fascinates him.

Phi: Seems Achilles wants to battle as much as we do.

But Phi's not the only one who's noticed there's something about Aiger.

Hyde: Ah, so this is why Phi wanted to toy with him.

Phi's twin brother Hyde and his bey Dread Hades have also taken an interest in Aiger's power. A balance-type, Hades is one of the heaviest beys in existence. But its strength is never more obvious than when Hyde's using...

Hyde: Dread Gravity!

Hades encircles its opponent, smashing them around like a bey-shaped pinball. These techniques are driven by Hyde's own warped resonance with Hades.

Hyde: What magnificent power! Now this is true resonance!

With that kind of intensity, it's no surprise that these brothers have taken sibling rivalry to a whole new level. As children, they fought over who would get (Hyde: Ah, I want this one!) Hades... and Phi lost. That resentment fuels the tension between them to this day.

Phi: You shall lose everything!

Tempers are boiling over as Phi finally exacts his revenge and takes back what's his. Keep watching to find out how far Phi & Phoenix will go on Beyblade Burst Turbo!

--------------------------------------------------

Delta Zakuro | Venom/Erase Devolos Vanguard Bullet + Master Devolos Generate (The Devil Dragon - Judeo-Christian mythology - Basis: Satan)

Endless style and talent, burning passion, Delta Zakuro's got it all.

Delta: Nnh!

But what he doesn't have is patience for bladers who aren't on his level.

Delta: You're a nuisance.

Delta puts in hours of hard work to be the best, and the fruits of his labour shine through when he battles.

Delta: Go, Devolos!

Devolos is a balance-type that can alternate between two modes, the clockwise-spinning Venom Devolos and the counter-clockwise-spinning Erase Devolos. So no one has any idea how he'll attack... unless he tells them.

Delta: I'm going with Erase Devolos.

Kinda like that. When they unleash their signature move...

Delta: Dual Phantom!

Devolos' tip splits in two! The small clone then attacks their opponent while Devolos focuses on spinning.

Delta: Devolos is going to swallow up all of your light!

Devolos: I'm starving!

The blading world better watch out 'cause these two are a force to be reckoned with.

Watch Delta & Devolos and let it rip on Beyblade Burst Rise!

Delta: Only one star in the sky can shine the brightest.

--------------------------------------------------

Arthur Peregrine | Prime Apocalypse 0Dagger Ultimate Reboot' (The Sword of the End - Judeo-Christian mythology - Basis: The dragon that bestowed power upon The Beast and caused the Apocalypse)

ERROR 404 - Meet The Bladers episode not found.

--------------------------------------------------

Gwyn Reynolds | Royal Genesis Hybrid + Eclipse Genesis Hybrid (The Beginning Shield - Judeo-Christian mythology - Basis: The origin of life known as the Genesis)

Mystery + intelligence + a mastery of hyperphysics = Gwyn Reynolds, an enigmatic math whiz with a knack for solving the toughest of equations. As a newcomer to the blading world, Gwyn's inspiration to battle was brought to life when he witnessed Dante and Delta's face-off with Arthur Peregrine.

Gwyn: You know, Beyblade... might just be fun.

Even with his Royal Genesis undefeated, Gwyn never stopped reaching for something more.

Gwyn: It's complete. Eclipse Genesis.

Eclipse Genesis is a defence-type with a Burst Prevention System, making its super high defences that much tougher to crack, and nothing says defence like blowing your opponents away!

Gwyn: Eclipse Pulse!

Gwyn thinks he's got it all figured out, but can Dante inspire him one more time?

Watch Gwyn & Genesis and let it rip on Beyblade Burst Rise!

Gwyn: Finally... I found the answer.

--------------------------------------------------

Lain Valhalla | Vex Lucius Mobius 2D + Lucius Endbringer Kou Drift (The Fallen Angel - Judeo-Christian mythology - Basis: The fallen archangel Lucifer)

A rookie blader is out to topple the blading legends and he's got one name.

Shu: Lain.

Hyuga: Lain!

Hikaru: Lain...

Senor: Lain Valhalla!

Lain: Nnnrrrrrrraaaaaaaaaaaargh!

Lain's a powerhouse who came out of nowhere and he's trained by Shu Kurenai himself, so you know he's got skills.

Lain: There's nothing in this world I can't do.

Now, the blading legends are in his sights and he's not backing down.

Lain: Who needs legends? They're nothing but a waste of space!

But if he's going to take on the world's top bladers, he'll need a bey unlike any other.

Lain: The most powerful bey ever, Vex Lucius!

Vex Lucius is an indestructible defence-type. That's right. In-de-structible. When it unleashes Vexing Wall, nothing can even touch it. Powered by a raw energy he calls Flare, Lain continues to grow beyond his limits. But if no one can touch Lucius or Lain, who will stop his Flare from devouring him completely?

Watch Lain & Lucius and let it rip on Beyblade Burst Surge!

Lain: I'm gonna need you to up your game to fuel my Flare.

--------------------------------------------------

Rashad Goodman | Glory Regnar Over High Xtend+' (The Archangel of Light - Judeo-Christian mythology - Basis: The archangel/angel Raphael)

Make way! Make way! Beyblade's knight in shining armour has arrived. Rashad Goodman's always wanted to be just like his idol, Valt Aoi.

Rashad: I know everything about you and Valtryek. I mean it! I know more than anyone else.

And Valtryek made Rashad the blader he is today. Ernest, good-hearted and true, Rashad is a prime example of what a blader should be.

Rashad: Us bladers got to stick together, right?

But its his skill that earned Rashad the title of High Prince, and his partner Glory Regnar is the perfect crown.

Rashad: I'd like you to meet Glory Regnar.

Regnar is a balance-type bey. When it armours up with Glory Crown, it keeps its weak points out of harms way, making it nearly impossible to damage.

Rashad: I summon the brightest light, with Glory Crown!

The High Prince is a gallant blader who can do no wrong. He's a shining light to guide the way, a role model through and through.

Watch Rashad & Regnar and let it rip on Beyblade Burst QuadDrive.

Rashad: This is one step closer to my TRUE goal.

[beybladeburstzenith]

why did I do this?

Drum: How's the sexiest person here~? Gwyn: I don't know, how are they~? Drum, flustered: I- Delta, from across the room: I'm doing great, thanks!

[beybladeninja]

Back into the God AU!

Here's Gabe!

Gabe is the God of Earthquakes. As someone with literal ties to the Earth, he is the definition of "stone cold serious". It is incredibly difficult to get him to laugh, or cry, or express anything other than "this is my resting bitch face". Gods like Bel, the God of Discourse, have tried, but such stories of any person, human or god, causing his stone cold exterior to crack only belong to myths and legends.

His job is to monitor the tectonic plates of the planet. If he ever feels that it is necessary for a plate to move, to make way for another plate or something else, he will cause it to move. Such a process usually results in earthquakes ranging from every level on the Richter Scale, and creates formations like mountain ranges and chasms.

He often works in tandem with Delta, the God of Eruptions, as one reaction usually leads to the other. He also shares several sympathies with the explosive god; his earthquakes are usually incredibly destructive, so humans view him as a vengeful god and leave several offerings and sacrifices in an attempt to appease his fury. Little do they know that causing earthquakes is simply his job, which is necessary in order for life on Earth to continue. He and Delta frequently feel misunderstood and under appreciated.

But like Delta is also associated with fertility because of his volcanic soil, Gabe is also associated with rebirth. His earthquakes are destructive, but what they knock down can be rebuilt in time, and can be built twice as better at that. The rebuilding process can bring help to bring previously reclusive communities together; both of these effects brings Gabe some solace in his work.

What do you think of God Gabe?

And put on your best dress or suit, because the Emperor himself is up next!

To keep the list going, who do you want to see as a god next?

Mayblade day 19: gold (Gold Turbo)

During the GT season of Beyblade Burst (2019 - early 2020), several beys had Gold Turbo recolors. With these beys, when you opened the box, there was a 1 in 72 chance you’d get the Gold Turbo version. While the manga didn’t reference this at all, the anime made a special move called Gold Turbo (Hyperflux in the dub), where the beyblade glows golden

Gold Turbo is achieved when a blader and bey are perfectly in sync with each other. Valt and Aiga manage to use Gold Turbo extremely quickly because at the time of GT, they are both some of the world’s top bladers. Aiga kinda foreshadowed Gold Turbo towards the end of Cho-Z, but it was never confirmed to actually be Gold Turbo

The other Gold Turbo users are the main characters of GT: Drum, Amane, and Delta. Of the three, Drum achieves partial Gold Turbo fairly early on, but takes a while before he can fully use it. Amane’s mastery of Gold Turbo happened against Arthur. Both are fairly standard character progressions. But I want to talk about Delta. Delta was the first of the three to master Gold Turbo, but he was the only one to ever fail at using Gold Turbo after learning it. After Drum and Amane learn Gold Turbo, they can use it whenever they want. Delta mastered Gold Turbo, but in a later battle failed to activate it. This is because  Delta grew as a character while Diabolos did not. A bey and blader being in sync doesn’t have to be good, like is the case with Arthur’s Dark Turbo or Gwyn’s Superior Turbo. Delta and Diabolos were shady at best and villains at worst, at least until Arthur’s introduction. But Delta failed at using Gold Turbo because he started to doubt himself, and if he really agreed with Diabolos. Delta only managed to reliably use Gold Turbo again when Diabolos stopped trying to “consume all light.” With Delta, losing Gold Turbo meant he became better

[justchillingplease]

My bestie won't come so I'll post him and Delta here.

August made this for us.

A New Normal

ao3 link:

Summary: The match between the Victories and Inferno is over, and Gwyn is left with a lot to think about.

Words: 1481

Gwyn opened the door to his room, and was greeted by the dim lights casting a faint glow across it. He squinted a bit. He’s more used to the lone blue screen being the only source of light, but that hasn’t been on for days. The match took much longer than expected. 

He looked around the room, and couldn’t help but feel something off about it, even though it had no noticeable changes. The dark shadows painted along the crevices and edges, the scribbles that littered the walls and floors, and the papers scattered all over. Nothing was new. It was all the same. But still, the feeling lingered. Was it always this quiet?

He flipped the on switch, allowing for the bright artificial lights to engulf the work area, before planting himself on a chair near the computer desk, the hard wood pressing on his arms. 

His fingers twitched slightly, and the off feeling was made even more present, digging itself in place. He glanced around the room. Perhaps he just needs to get back into the routine. Clearly everything felt different, so if he went back to something familiar, that could make the feeling go away. 

He eventually found a journal that sat on the table next to him, laying in front of the black monitor. The pen wasn’t too far off either. But as he tried to reach for it, something stopped his hands from moving. It was heavy, laid sticky in his arms and hands like glue and tape, and stubborn, refusing to move. And to be honest, he didn’t find himself resisting it. 

It doesn’t make sense in hindsight. If it were like any other day, he would have no problem reaching for the journal and writing down anything and everything. In fact, it would’ve been second-nature. Instinctual. Ingrained with every movement. He should be writing.

And yet, he didn’t. He just sat, and studied the room as if he was seeing it for the first time again. 

A faint glow began to radiate from his pocket. His hands moved its mold to the chair to the smooth lining of the pocket’s fabric. Static still buzzed in his head. 

~

Genesis looked down at him. He knew it was, even with his head was facing away from it. 

It stared at the top of his head, but stayed quiet. Both of them did, which only gave Gwyn more time to think. 

The stadium is cheering, the large platform and seats filled to the brim with crowds of people. Dragon and Genesis clash, blow after blow, sending waves across the two bladers. Gwyn looks up, and sees Dante smiling back. A rainbow glow shines around him. 

He looks to his right. Both Arman and Delta are on either side, giving him the same smile. 

“Not bad Gwyn. Nice job.”

“Not bad at all!”

Dante speaks. “It's fun, right? Giving it your all?!” His eyes shined as he did.

“…fun.” Gwyn whispered under his breath. Genesis peered at the young boy. 

“Is something still on your mind?” It had a firm, but gentle voice, one that wasn’t demanding, but held an air of strength around it as echoed around their chambers.

He didn’t respond at first, taking time for the word to bounce in his head before his mouth blurted out an answer. 

“No.” He said. He hesitated, but continued on. “My search is finished; I have the answer. I do not need to go any further.”

“And yet, you still question yourself,” it said.  Although the words were a statement, it felt more of a question. He tried to come up with an answer, but just as the words were on the tip of his tongue, it died and sunk back deep in his throat. Another stretch of silence followed. 

He couldn’t answer, could he? He had no solution.

He couldn’t calculate it. 

His thoughts steered back to the moment when that realization began to settle in, back to the very last battle of the match, and to the outburst that preceded it. 

Not because he was embarrassed of the breakdown. He wasn’t ashamed. No, what he couldn’t stop thinking about was what he had said, and how much he would give to take it back. 

And he did, once the battle ended, and while Dante had simply smiled and laughed, the words still stuck in his head, like dried glue to paper. 

I wish we never met.

“It’s different now,” Gwyn finally responded. His hair grazed his cheeks as it floated next to him, lightweight and unkept with every strand. It covered his face, if only barely, but had been parted slightly so that he could see the figure towering over him.

He knew avatars always had expressionless faces, from the research he has done, but it was still unnerving the way that Genesis could look deep into his eyes with nothing in its own. It would be terrifying if it wasn’t also comforting.

“What has changed?” 

He looked up, and thought. For once, his mind was completely silent. “I don’t know.” 

Another strand grazed his neck. Genesis stays quiet.

~

Gwyn had to blink a few times to adjust to the brightness of the room, but once he did, it couldn’t have been more unrecognizable and jarring. The off feeling has somehow turned into a blinding pulse that tugged every bit of his being to leave. To leave, and never come back.

His life was in this room, but now, he could barely stand to be in it. 

Gwyn stood up and buried Genesis back in his pocket. He walked over and grabbed a piece of chalk sitting on one of the tables, and went to turn off the light before closing the door behind him. 

~

As he step outside, the sun was already making its descent to the horizon, making everything glow with a yellow hue. To be frank, he didn’t have a destination. His feet took him to wherever it wanted to go, and he followed behind it. The utter silence in his head made the entire walk even more overwhelming. It was no longer filled with everything at once, or thoughts zipping past faster than it could be processed, or numbers upon numbers.  It was filled with nothing at all.

The parks that occupied the urban area always had people crowding around the stadiums stationed everywhere. But since it was late, they were empty.  

For the second time that day, everything was quiet.  

But even so, the walkways were far from dead. There was the chirping and rustling of birds in the nearby trees, the little that were in a city. There was a whistle and lapping in the soft breeze, and the rippling of calm waters by the riverbank. There was the light tapping of shoes at every step and if he listened closely, there was the distant laughing lingering at every corner.

As he walked further and further, a certain sound rung through the air. His feet slowed to a stop. 

“Come on Dragon! We got this, just break right through!” 

“Ashindra, counter it!”

They were distant, he thought to himself, but not too far away. He stood still, and listened.

“Aw man!”

“Ha! I win this one!”

“Come on, one more time!”

“Really? Haven’t you had about enough already?”

“I can’t just walk away with a loss! Come on Arman, one more battle!”

“Hey, you two, that’s it for today.”

“Aww, but I wanted to go another round!”

“We can continue tomorrow. In the meantime, get some rest. Remember, rest is part of training.”

“Alright… Hey Delta, did you see that super awesome move Dragon just pulled?!”

“Yeah, I did. Not bad.”

“I know right! Man, Dragon’s the best! Hey Delta, wanna battle more tomorrow?”

“Sure thing. Better watch out though, I’ll crush you.”

“Ha, we’ll just see about that!”

Gwyn’s fingers twitched around the chalk. A deep, heavy feeling filled his chest, and swirled into the pits of his stomach, a gnawing that rasped his hands and throat. He breathed in slightly, and his feet continued forward, allowing for the talking to grow more distant with every step.

It got quieter and quieter until there was nothing at all, and Gwyn finally saw where he was. In a grassy valley next to a river, in front of a small patch of soft dirt. In it, he could see the traces of old scribbles, bits of variables and numbers and expression, and two fresh sets of footprints on either side. 

This was where he first met him. 

The yellow sunset hue was no longer there, but rather replaced by a deep red that engulfed the soil. The sun was nearly down, disappearing by the second. 

Gwyn rubbed the chalk in his hand and tucked it away. 

He picked up a long stick that laid not too far. 

And he began writing.

Beyblade World Tournament: MD12-MD17

The early second half of that one random comparison tournament thing I'm doing because I can. Nothing more needs to be said. I still think the fact that Phi and Hyde don't have a known surname looks off compared to all the others.

This is used in the event of all the peeps having the original beys. Mainly because Hasbro beys are about as appealing as Sage hentai, and also because on Hasbro beys, the hax don't exist.
