*It was later that day and Bella had returned to the city of Japan to train, she had finally learned what Michaels weakness was*
Bella: I finally know it.. Michaels weakness!
---Flashback---
Free: The weakness to Michael?
Bella: Yeah, if i am to take him down then i need something in order to beat him. You beat him right? You must know his weakness!
*Free sighed and just stared at her*
Free: I may have won by burst finish but it was a Slo-Motion burst.. i don't actually know what Michaels weakness is.
Bella: W-What?!
Free: However, i know that Michael has burst locks which can save it from a burst. Your task if you want to beat him is to break through the burst locks and that's how you can burst it.
Bella: Burst locks huh?
Free: Just like Beherit, Michael is not an easy bey to burst, never has been.
Bella: I think i finally get it! Thanks a lot Free!
Free: And one more thing..
Bella: What's that?
Free: Don't be so sure that you can burst Michael so easily, it won't be an easy challenge to overcome. Main i'm sure has already become a huge roadblock for you and what you really want to do.
Bella: What i really want to do?
Free: There is something you want to do but you don't know if you have the strength to do it.. what is it?
*Bella just stood there and looked down at the ground, an image of Athena popped into her head*
Bella: I've beaten her before but i want to really have a fun and explosive battle with her.. I want to surpass her and i'll do whatever it takes to make sure that becomes a reality. I'll train for hours a day if i have to in order to become the blader Athena sees in me!
*Free stared in awe at Bella who was glowing with her purple and pink aura*
Free: Her determination and intensity.. she reminds me of a certain someone i know..
*Free just smiled as the young version of Valt popped in his head*
Free: I admire your determination, you have my respect for that. I hope to see you again soon.
---Flashback over---
Bella: We're going to win next time against Main for sure, we'll blow that guy away for sure!
*Bella had eventually made it to the Sparking Arena and Valt and Shu were there along with Athena*
Shu: There she is.
Athena: Bella, where have you been?
Bella: I saw Free today and i beat him in a battle!
Valt: You beat Free in battle?
Bella: That's not all, he's given me the info we need on Michael!
Athena: A weakness?
Bella: Not necessarily a weakness but a way we can actually burst it.
Athena: Well spill the beans then.
*Bella began to explain everything to the very last detail about Michaels burst locks*
Shu: Burst locks?
Valt: Just like Beherit..
Athena: It make sense, Michael utilizes the Ultimate System too. I should've known that was the key to its defeat.. is there any way we can actually burst it?
Bella: You can't do anything to negate its Burst Lock from the outside, you have to keep attacking as hard as you can if you are to burst it.
Shu: And Michael has a whole array of different special moves in order to protect itself, Main obviously knows this flaw or else he wouldn't go to great lengths to try and increase Michaels defense.
Valt: And not only that, only a strong and powerful attack can break through it and Michael is a stamina type bey. Not all beys can keep up with it until it finally is able to burst.
Athena: Supreme Sphere.. Its Michaels ultimate special move. It invincible defense can send the force of the opponents attack back at it and crush it with unrelenting force.
Bella: There has to be a way to break through that move too.
Athena: The only way to break through it is to just push as hard as you can against the shield until it breaks, however you risk severely damaging your own bey in the process.
*Bella began to think for a moment, she remembered the day in Spain where her bey was destroyed at the hands of Main, she wasn't going to let something like that happen again*
Bella: I won't let something like that happen again, i still remember it all. The sound of Beherit breaking, it still haunts my dreams.
*Shu stepped forward as he held up his bey, Atlas Spriggan*
Shu: Well in that case, let's get to work. You need as much training as you can get.
*Bella nodded and everyone began to get to work*
---Meanwhile---
*At Supreme Prime, Main stood alone in a Bey-Lab within the castle and Main was healing some of the damage Michael had sustained from the battle with Athena*
Main: That battle really put a strain on you, however we won't let something like this stand. She'll return here for a proper rematch.
*Michael began to glow on the table as a ring of light emitted of it and it pulled Main into a void of sparkles, the avatar of Michael stood before him*
Main: Y-You're Michael..!
Michael: Main, why do you Beyblade?
Main: Why do i... Beyblade?
*Main looked down as he was brought closer to Michael*
Main: I want to crush Athena, that is all. My revenge means everything to me!
Michael: And do you not see the damage around you? You've destroyed numerous beys and now you call yourself the Supreme Lord.
Main: I am the Supreme Lord!!
Michael: And what do you think you'll gain from all of this? Sooner or later, everyone is going to be against you if they haven't figured out your game already!
Main: People will learn to live under my rule, all it takes is a demonstration.
Michael: What do you mean by a demonstration?
Main: I will face Athena again, i can guarantee that and her complete and utter defeat will prove my superiority to all of the world!
Michael: Is that so? And what if that doesn't work? What if Athena makes a complete fool of you like she did in Spain?
Main: Then i'll find someone to defeat instead, someone who is close to Athena and i already have the perfect opponent for that.
Michael: Bella?
Main: She'll know the true power of the Supreme Lord, everyone will. This is my style of blading!
*The avatar world disappeared and Main looked down at his bey as it started to glow brightly, he took the bey and he could feel power coursing through his very being*
---Later---
*The Training at the Sparking Arena was still underway and Bella hadn't won a single battle since they had started, Shu picked up his bey and had left for the day. Bella fell to her knees in complete despair*
Bella: Why.. what is going on with me!?
*Athena just stood there with nothing to say as thoughts began to flood her mind*
Athena: Beherit and Michael, both of them use the Ultimate System.. if their weakness is the Burst locks then beating them shouldn't be too hard, i will win no matter what.
*Bella jumped to her feet and she began to laugh*
Bella: It won't matter, i'll continue getting stronger as i build more and more strength!
*Bella dashed out of the room and went to find Rangara*
Athena: Well that was quick..
*Bella had ran through the town as she looked for Rangara and eventually, she found him in the park training on his own*
Bella: Rangara!
*Rangara looked up from his training and his face was incredibly distraught*
Bella: W-What's wrong?
Rangara: Didn't Lane tell you? Adeline is gone..
Bella: W-What? What do you mean "gone"?!
Rangara: She left us, she's not with us anymore!
Bella: Where did she go?!
Rangara: She went home.. She went to the UK!
Bella: The UK? How do you know?
Rangara: Lane saw her heading to a plane at the airport, i don't think she is coming back..
Bella: What was wrong with her..? She seemed alright the other day.
Rangara: However, this is no time to worry about her. We need to get ready for your battle with Main in just a few days or whenever you plan on battling him..
Bella: Actually, first i think you should take the chance to get your revenge.
Rangara: What do you mean?
Bella: I mean that you should have your rematch with him, especially after what happened in New York.
*Rangara couldn't forget that day, the day he battled Main and his bey was torn to pieces*
Rangara: I could never ever forget that day.. i want to beat him just as much as you do.
Bella: So battle him Rangara, you have a score to settle with him, so you should take that opportunity.
*Rangara began to tear up and wiped his tears away*
Rangara: T-Thank you.. thank you so much! I'll beat that guy into the ground, just you watch!
Bella: I believe in you Kiyama, you and Ragnaruk got this.
*Rangara nodded as he held his bey as it started to glow*
Rangara: Yeah, we can do this..!
*Bella held up a new launcher and it was colored in the colors of Ragnaruk*
Rangara: I-Is this..?!
Bella: Yeah, i made one for you too. I even made one for Athena and Lane too.
*Bella held up 2 more launchers, one was purple and white which was for Athena and the other was Black and Pink which was for Lane*
Bella: It's a launcher that guarantees incredible launch strength, way stronger than the previous model.
*Rangara took his new launcher and it gleamed in the sunlight*
Rangara: Yes! It even feels more powerful too!
Bella: Well of course, i made it after all!
Rangara: Then it should work then!
*The 2 started to train and eventually, Shu had made it to the park*
Shu: How's it going you two? Training?
Bella: Yeah, i'm going to battle Main soon but first, Rangara is having a revenge battle against him. He destroyed Ragnaruk a little while back.
Shu: I see.
Bella: I need more training, defeating Main is now a priority. I can't delay anymore than i already have today.
*Shu nodded and held up his bey as the 2 got set up at a stadium*
Rangara: Alright, 1st Battle!!
*Shu stared at Bella as he prepared to change modes*
Shu: I went with Stamina Mode in the battle from earlier, this time she'll go with a more offensive approach than she did then. I'll go with Defense Mode.
*Shu changed his Quattro' driver into Defense Mode and left the spin direction in Right Spin*
Bella: Defense Mode, so he's going more passive.. Let's see how he does.
Rangara: Ready Set!!
3 2 1 GO SHOOT!!!
*The beys were off and Spriggan had taken the center and Beherit came rushing in for the blow*
Bella: Alright! Obsidian Shoot!!
*Beherit fired off a fierce barrage of attacks and Spriggan was getting knocked around hard*
Shu: Spriggan! Counter!!
*Spriggan tilted on the ball of its defense tip and recovered from the blow, resisting all of Beherits attacks now*
Shu: Is that all you got? Surely you can do better!
Bella: We're just getting started! The Princess Of Darkness won't be done in so easily!
*Beherit started to speed up as its driver began to sparkle brightly, particles coming off of it*
Shu: W-What is happening..?!
Bella: This is.. the power of Beherit's Ultimate Awakening!
*Beherits Forge driver had completely worn down and it was now a rubber flat tip, it began to charge up and pick up some massive speed*
Bella: True Obsidian Shoot!!
*Beherit slams into Spriggan and sent it on the move*
Shu: Spriggan!
*Spriggan hits the wall and its Quattro' driver unlocked, it landed back and changed into Attack Mode, referencing its mode change trick from the Zeta driver*
Bella: Tricks won't save you now! Go!!
*Beherit was spinning fast and it was racing around the stadium with full speed*
Shu: This ends now! Atlas Slash!!
*Spriggan was speeding up too, its axe blades glowing bright*
Bella: It's over for you! Go Beherit!!
Beherit: I'm off!
*Beherit was starting to glow bright as bolts of electricity was sparking and surging around it*
Bella: The curtain falls! End this with True Obsidian Thunder!!
*Beherit and Spriggan clash with full force as a massive explosion bursts out of the stadium! with a fiery burst, Spriggan was defeated.*
Shu: Tch.. impossible..!
Rangara: Obsidian Beherit with a burst finish! Bella Akazara is the winner!!
Bella: Yes!! That is the true power of Beherit!
Shu: At the last second.. Beherit awakened by wearing the driver down and gaining a power boost.. i have to admit, that's impressive.
*Shu just smiled and walked away*
---Later that day---
*Rangara had made it to Supreme Prime and he had made it to the Throne Room where Main was waiting*
Main: Rangara Kiyama.. i've been waiting for you.
Rangara: I'm not here for games, i'm here to get the revenge i've been wanting and i'll crush you with full strength!
*Main just smiled as he held up his bey, the bey glowing brightly as its light was radiating off of it*
Main: If that's the case then no holding back, i'm going to absolutely crush you!
[TBC]
