Hyuga sat with Hyperion. "Hyperion, I am so frustrated." Hyuga Hizashi said to his bey. "When we were battling together, it was like we were one." He says as the memory comes to mind.

He grits his teeth, huffs air through his teeth, and stands up with clenched fists. "WHAT DO I HAVE TO DO TO WIN AGAINST FREE?!" He shouts, gaining the attention of every blader in the room.

Meanwhile, Free stood in front of a stadium in his usual training grounds. Fafnir spun in the stadium. Free just watched with his black eyes.

"Hey, you okay?" The kind, concerned voice of Valt Aoi asks as he walks toward Free. Free turns to his friend.

"Depends on what you mean. Ok with what?"

"That battle against (Y/N). Then Hyuga." Valt explains. "Something seemed kind of off."

Free looked away. "They reminded me of a certain rookie blader I met in the U.S." His mind flashed to the siblings and the way an aura unlike what he'd seen before had wrapped around them. (Y/N) with her lavender. Hyuga with his red. Then, they changed into a boy with a dark magenta aura. His eyes were sharp and his hair spiked up. "His name was Lain." Free's own eyes sharpen. "He's the blader that I lost against."

Valts eyes widen. He releases a breath of shock. Free continues.

"They say he learned how to blade from Shu Kurenai."

"From Shu?" Valt asks in surprise.  An image of the albino haired blader flashes in his mind.

"He thinks Lain has what it takes to change the world of Beyblade as we know it."

(Y/N) Hizashi sat on her own. She kept thinking of her tears. She knew they were pointless. It felt good. She also knew it wasn't healthy, but what else could she do? She couldn't tell her brothers. They wouldn't understand. Her mother? Her father? She couldn't burden them like that. The one person who might? Well, he was gone from her life. Forever. There was a part of her that hated him. Gosh. She hated him so strongly for what he did. He probably hated her too. They hadn't ended on good terms. Even though there was a part of her that hated him, there was another part. One that wished for him back. That missed him. She shoved that voice down with anger. However, at some point, anger becomes sadness. She had thought about telling her brothers multiple times. They both loved beyblade. When she and Lain had first met, and before they separated, she didn't want to share something that felt like. . . hers.

That was selfish of her. She knew that. She couldn't destroy it though. She held onto that hatred. She made it burn through her. After all, he has ruined so much of her life. She doubted he even remembered her though. She shook her head. She launched her bey into the stadium. It wasn't like it mattered. She would never see him again. Not in a million years.

In another part of Spain, stood Hikaru Hizashi. He stood in front of a stadium. He, himself, thinks of things too. Of his brother, and his excitement in meeting Hyperion. Her younger sister defending her twin. Why did she run out of the room? He didn't know what to make of it all.

He looked at his own bey. His brother's excited voice reappeared in his head. "Is something like that even possible?" Hikaru looked down at Helios. His face scrunched up in thought. "If so. Helios can do it too." His emerald eyes filled with determination. He launches Helios. "Come out, Helios!" He shouts at it. The bey just spins in the center before quickly stopping. He tried again.
