MASTER POST OF THIS AU

Hiromi imagined her first beyblading match to be vastly different. Probably with some other rookie in a smaller, more manageable stadium, and under less threatening circumstances.

Not against one of the strongest bladers of their generation, and Kai may kill her. And she wants to save him.

Whatever.

If... the desire to win, or love beyblading is a source of motivation for her team... then is... wanting to save people... a source of motivation?

And then she thought of the sleepless nights lately.

She thought of Grandpa, waiting for Takao to come home.

She thought of Mao crying on the phone.

This Blake ... he has control of her team.

And the flames around her grew in response to her feeling of frustration.

"Hey!" she screamed through the flames. "KAI!"

He wasn't listening, as he was getting angrier.

"KAI!"

"These disgusting flames!" he snarled. "I will extinguish them."

"What?" she asked slowly.

She looked around herself at Blue Suzaku.

Why does... her bit-beast infuriate him?

Whatever!

"Kai, I don't know if you can hear me, but you're part of our team. Takao, Myself, Max, Rei, Daichi, Kyoujyu," she called out to him. "You fought with us for BBA, against Brooklyn, against the odds—"

"SHUT UP!"

"YOU WERE AN IMPORTANT PART OF OUR TEAM!" she yelled.

But it doesn't matter anymore who he beat... does it? This is not him... is it? What does she really know of Kai?

He roared in anger. "SHUT UP!"

Her Suzaku and Suzaku clashed at the heart of the warehouse, as they both yelled in unison, lighting up, and blowing off the rooftop as their beyblades rammed into each other. Sparks flew. The windows blew out. The night sky was lit up with sparks. Heat and wind surrounded they yelled their attacks.

"SUZAKUUUU! FIRE ARROW!"

"SUZAKUU!" she repeated. "FIRE-ARROW!"

"STOP COPYING ME!"

They both clashed and set the entire warehouse walls on fire as Hiromi felt the bit-beast surround her with blue flames to protect her from the onslaught. Her beyblade collided into his.

For a brief second, a sliver of a second, through fire, sparks and smoke, she saw his eyes clear from that cloudiness. He stared at her. Hiromi was thrown back.

"I..." she got to her feet. She may not know everything about him. But one thing's for sure. "YOU ARE NOT A PUPPET!"

For a split second, he widened his eyes at her.

And then he clutched his head.

"SHUT UP SHUT UP!" he screamed.

"NO!" she yelled back. "IF MY VOICE ANNOYS YOU! LET IT! THIS IS NOT WHO YOU ARE! YOU'RE NOT A PUPPET!"

Hiromi got to her feet, ignoring her burns.

"I SWEAR WHATEVER IT TAKES, I'LL DRAG YOU AND THE OTHERS OUT OF THIS HELL, BUT STARTING WITH YOU! WE'RE GOING BACK HOME. I'M NOT GOING TO LET HIM USE YOU!"

Then she felt it. A link. Something tethering the two of them.

This... Connection. Their flames started to connect, creating a circle around them.

The fires around Kai collapsed, as he's struggling against something, the mind-control or whatever. He trashed around, as he crashed to his knees.

She tried to cross over towards him.

Then circle of flames collapsed.

His flames barred her.

"I..." she thought. "I'm not strong enough to brave Suzaku's flames... but still... I can't do nothing. He's so close."

The flames increased in intensity.

"Kai..." she held out her hand.

He had his head in his hands.

"Kai, listen to me," she said. "You're strong enough to break free of this. You're stronger than you think. I..."

He then stood up as the flames around started to coil, and they increased in ferocious intensity forming a powerful fire vortex around him.

His eyes were red again.

Hiromi stared at him with wide eyes.

"Suzaku," he said. "Burn her."

Seriously?

Hiromi stared up at the powerful vortex.

She... she can't copy this one... This... true Suzaku is too powerful. She felt her helplessness fight against her frustration.

That's when another beyblade entered the fray. "You ain't gunna do that to her, KAI!" she heard. "YOU'LL REGRET IT!"

"Wolborg! ATTACK!"

And an ice-bridge divided them protecting her from Suzaku's onslaught.

"FALBORGGG!"

"SEABORG!!"

What?

Hiromi kept her eyes trained on Kai, who glared at them, and Suzaku shattered the ice. He was struggling.

Suzaku churned within fire, as a maniacal grin overtook Kai's face, and Hiromi's heart broke.

And with one final clash, Suzaku sent their beyblades flying. The Flames covered his departure through flames and smoke, as he looked over his shoulder at her one last time.

She thought she saw someone else through the flames.

She got to her feet.

Huh?

And then she broke into a run.

"OI!" Yuriy yelled at her.

She ran through the warehouse, past the smoke and fire, and the falling beams. And out into the cold night, where she saw nothing. HIromi spun around.

"Kai?" she called out into the night. "KAI!"

The sound of the waves crashing against the shoreline met her followed by the sound of another beam falling.

.

"I dunno what to do!" Boris said. "We looked all 'round for 'im, and can't find him."

Hiromi walked up to them, past the warehouses which were on fire.

"Drat," Yuriy said. "So he's gone or something."

"I was gunna beat 'im up before he tried to beat me up!" Boris said.

Sergei nodded solemnly, and he glanced over at Hiromi.

"What do we tell Kyoujyu? Is this the girl he was worried about?"

There was... a moment there... She sighed. She's so tired.

"Oi," Yuriy called out to her. "Are you the one who Kyoujyu was worried 'bout?"

"Oi, GIRL! YOU! GIRL!" Boris said. "If we weren't gunna save ya, you'd be roasted. Where's our thanks?" He wagged his finger at her.

She blinked as she looked up.

"Oh," she said with a smile "Thanks for that."

And they stared at her awkwardly, like they didn't expect her to thank them.

"Kyoujyu sent you?" she continued. She had been talking to him on the phone when she spotted Kai around the town.

"I didn't know Takao's teammate could beyblade," Yuriy said as he squinted at her.

"I don't."

"Huh!?" Boris said. "Then whaddya doing beyblading Kai?! Are ya crazy?"

"Haha. Well he was in town... for one reason or the other... likely to finish off Brooklyn, and I ran into him on my way back."

"Oh."

"Oh okay?!?"

"GUYS!"

She spun around to see Kyoujyu.

"You guys are safe! And Kai didn't destroy you guys."

"Whaddya mean Kai can destroy us?" Boris got all up in his face.

Yuriy stared at Kyoujyu and then he pointed at Hiromi, who rubbed the back of her head with a sheepish look.

"She was beyblading him, actually."

"Huh!?" Kyoujyu asked her. "I... I thought I told you not to do that!"

"Kyoujyu," Hiromi said with a smile.

"We don't know the capabilities of... something like that?! Incomplete Suzaku. What kind of... it's so cold and weird...?!"

"Kyoujyu."

"And beyblading Kai?! Are you serious!? Do you want to die!?"

"Kyoujyu."

"I KNOW WE'RE both frustrated! But you can at least wait for Brooklyn and me?!"

He pointed at the warehouse which was still burning.

"Kyoujyu!"

"What!?"

He was fuming. The Demolition boys stared between them.

"I think..." she said with a sooty smile. "I think I almost managed to break control off Kai."

He stared at her with wide eyes.

"Wot," Yuriy asked.

Okay, here me out: the original beyblade characters being the age they would be canonically now.

Since many of them are technically from the millennial generation, they might be in their 30s to 40s now, if we consider that they were in their preteens in 1998-2001-ish.

I wonder how their lives are like... 👀✨️

Takao probably hurt his back trying to do a beyblade trick. Living the "fun" life of those in their 30s 🥲 hes probably running his family's dojo, that also works as an open place for kids to practice their beyblading.

"Let it rip- ow, my back!"

Kai is probably running his grandpas company if we go by the manga. I just know buds stocking up on coffee after pulling all nighters to fix shit.

Hiromi aged gracefully 😌✨️ no reason, just because I like her.

... but shes also probably just as stressed as Kai, and working as a manager for some company. Raging in her car after her shifts, angry at her boss for changing the deadline for something her team is working on.

(Her boss is Kai. Man knows she's angry at him, and hes sitting quietly wondering how to make her less angry).

Chief is also just as stressed, but good at managing it due to working with what he loves 🥰 creating new inventions for beyblade parts, and probably being the reason the newer beyblades have a new kind of metal.

(He is though stealing/borrowing from his bosses coffee storage after said boss changed the deadline again-)

What Max and Rei are doing as adults is something I haven't thought much about.

Max most likely created a chatroom back in 2014 that is older than Rei and Maos youngest kid. So even if they are in different countries, they see Takao complain about his back hurting, and Kai awkwardly trying to one-worded apologize to Hiromi for something. But thankfully its all smoothed over by Rei posting his weekly picture of the dinner he and Mao made, which caused the Takao to post crying emojis over not being able to eat it.

All in all, normal modern adult stuff.

... until Kai posts a picture of his coffee supply at work being empty with "?!?!?" written afterwards the day after. 🫠
