Chapter 1 - Chapter One

Full Summery:

The Kitsune Blader

Set after G-Rev(kinda) A beyblading tournament is being held in Australia, with any and all
beybladers welcome to compete. The tournament is not for a title of any recognition, but
mainly for fun, somewhere teams still existing can battle each other and move to the top of
the scale. Among these teams is none other then white-tiger X, with Rei Kon still leading
the team. Not expecting anything out of the ordinary to happen, the arrival of a new team,
team Canadia, heats up the tournament. With demons popping out of nowhere, and the leader
of team Canadia, a stubborn and mysterious girl by the name of Dreea, drawing Rei's attention
away from beyblading, anything can happen. ReiXOC

Chapter One:The first meeting

Do not trust anyone right away, Dreea, no matter how much your heart tells you to.

I know sensai, I won't

Do your best in the tournament, my dear, and stay close to Larisa and Mark.

I will sensai

And be careful, young one. I sense that the demons shan't leave you be.

I know...sensai...

"Dreea......"

I won't let you down, I promise....

"Dreea."

Huh? wha....?

"Dreea, wake up." identical crystal blue eye's slowly flickered open, gazing at the planes ceiling
foggily. Blinking once, they followed the ceiling to the wall and then down to the girl sitting beside
her, blinking again when the girl giggled.

"Morning sleepyhead." her head turned towards the second voice, her eye's locking with emerald
green ones, the boy whom they belonged to grinning foolishly, his eye's sparkling from behind
long black bangs. Smiling a bit, Dreea yawned and sat up, turning back to Larisa, the blond girl
still looking at her with her ever-so-peppy brown eyes.

"How long was I asleep for?" she asked, yawning again and pushing back a stray lock of brown hair
that had fallen from her braid.

"A couple of hours, not long, considering how long the flight from Canada to Australia was." Mark
shrugged, stuffing his mp3 player into his bag. Dreea's eyebrow's creased a bit. "Wait, how long
it was? Are we in Australia?" Larisa nodded, also packing her stuff into her carry on.

"That's why we woke you up, we just landed." Dreea nodded and picked up her duffel, following Mark
down the isle and off the plane with Larisa following behind.

Once off the plane, Dreea breathed in deeply, smiling and letting out a sigh. "Ah, fresh air at last."

Laughing, Jeff and Larisa pulled their friend into the airport terminal to pick up the rest of their baggage,
pushing through the crowds to get to the luggage carousel. It wouldn't matter if they got split up-they
stood out pretty well in their canadian flag shirts with Team Canadia printed across the backs. Dreea
hoisted her duffel higher on her shoulder, reaching out and grabbing her two suitcases from the carousel.
Turning, she moved to walk out, not paying attention to where she was going.

"Oof!" accidentally bumping into someone, she muttered "sorry." and kept walking, not even looking to
see who she had bumped into.

"Oh your nice." Larisa giggled, coming up beside her friend and team mate.

"Yes, you should have at least looked at the guy when you said sorry." Mark added his two cents,
stepping up to stand on the other side of her.

Dreea rolled her eye's and hooked arms with her friends. "Whatever, lets just get to the hotel." her
friends laughed, allowing her to drag them towards the car awaiting them.

"Australia's nice, don't you think Rei?"

Rei gave Lee a smile over his shoulder as they walked down the plane steps, Mariah trailing behind.

"I don't see why they had to hold another tournament in Australia." Mariah whined, fluffing her hair
a bit. "It's too hot...and there's too many of those strange hopping animals around."

"They're called kangaroos, Mariah."

"I knew that."

Rei sighed, laughing slightly as he walked into the airport terminal. He didn't mind coming to this
tournament in Australia, in fact, he was looking forward to entering a tournament meant simply for
fun, and not for true titles. His cat like eye's roamed around the terminal, searching for any teams
he recognized.

That's strange, I only recognize a couple of other teams. Oh well, maybe the others just aren't here
yet, and all the new teams means there's new people to beat.

He was pulled from his thoughts when Mariah suddenly latched onto his arm, and he blinked, looking
down at her.

"Giftshop!" she smiled. Rei held back a groan.

"You go."

"nooo!" she whined, clinging to his arm more. "Your coming with me!"

Rei bit his lip, trying to think of a way to get out of the situation without hurting her feelings.

"I'll go with you Mariah, Rei can go get the luggage." Rei shot Lee a thankful look when his pink haired
team mate squealed happily and started clinging to Lee's arm instead of his. Watching until the two
had entered the gift shop, Rei turned and moved towards the luggage carousal. Determining just by
looking at the number of people surrounding the carousal that he wasn't going to get near it right away,
he moved as close as he could and stood behind a girl whom he assumed was also waiting for her luggage.

Having nothing better to do, he decided to examine the girl a bit, to see if he knew her. Long brown hair,
a thin frame from what he could tell, a red and white striped shirt with what appeared to be a canadian
maple leaf on the back, and the letters M and A visible on the part of her shirts back that wasn't covered
by her hair. Maybe she's from Canada. And if she was, he definitely didn't know her.

Not really paying attention to anything, Rei didn't noticed that the girl had grabbed her suitcases and turned
around until she bumped into him, a small "oof" escaping her lips. His acute ears picked up a mumbled
sorry from the girl before she walked off into the crowd. Rei blinked, snapping back to reality when he spotted
his, Mariah's and Lee's luggage coming around on the carousal, and he scooped it up, still staring off in the
direction the girl had gone in. I'll find out who she was sooner or later. Better go find Mariah and Lee. That
thought in mind, he forgot about the girl and walked off to find his team mates.

"Tell me....why I'm....carrying .....all the....luggage again?!" Larisa, hearing the question, turned back and
smiled innocently at Dreea, who was currently carrying all 6 of she, Dreea and Mark's suitcases.

"Well, for one, Mark went to go get us some pop." Larisa giggled, ticking the reason off on one of her fingers.

"Well why aren't you helping me??" Dreea growled, following her so called friend through the hallways of the
hotel and towards the stairs.

"Because your way stronger then me!" Larisa exclaimed, starting up the stairs. "I can barely lift one of those
things, but it should be no problem for you. After all, you are a.."

"Oh just shutup would ya?!" Dreea growled in warning, slowly climbing the stairs after her friend.

"Meany." Larisa pouted, making it to the top of the stairs. "Oh, Dreea, be careful, there's a slippery spot on
one of the steps."

"What ste...." Dreea trailed off when her foot hit the very spot Larisa was talking about, her body tipping
backwards.

"Dreea!" Larisa yelled, seeing her friend falling.

Oh great. I could save myself easily, but I can't! What if someone saw......Dreea's eye's clamped themselves
shut as she tumbled backwards, the suitcases falling ahead of her.

"Woah!" Dreea heard the unfamiliar voice and felt the arm around her waist, her mind whirring. I'm not dead?
Someone caught me? Who caught me? Hesitantly opening her eye's halfway to see what had happened, they
snapped open and her face turned red when she saw who had caught her.

"Are you alright?" Rei asked her, his amber eye's locked with her crystal blue ones.

"Uh....ya, thanks to you." she managed to mutter, steadying herself and pulling away.

"Did someone loose these?" she heard another voice grunt, and looked towards the end of the stairs, seeing
the blader she knew to be Lee of White Tiger X standing at the bottom of the stairs, holding all the suitcases.

"Ya, thanks for catching them." she called, jogging down the steps. Rei watched her, his eye's zooming in
on the back of her shirt, then widening slightly in recognition. It's the girl that bumped into me earlier. He
could see the writing on the back of her shirt clearly when her braid swung out of the way, the dark red letters
spelling out Team Canadia.

"Larisa! Get your @$$ down here!" hearing her shout, Rei snapped out of his thoughts and watched as the
other girl jogged down the stairs to her friends.

"You called?"

The brown haired girl growled and took two of the bags from Lee, shoving them into the girl now known as
Larisa's arms.

"You have to carry your own luggage!"

"But Dreeeaaaaaa!"

"No buts!"

So, her name is Dreea. "Don't mean to cut in," the two girls both looked at Rei, " but are you two in the
tournament as well?"

Dreea nodded. "Yes, we are. I'm Dreea James," she paused, sticking her hand out, "leader of team Canadia,
from, if it wasn't already obvious, Canada."

Rei smiled and shook her hand. "Rei Kon, leader of White Tiger-X. And that's Lee." he pointed at his team mate,
who waved the best he could, considering he was still holding four suitcases.

"Nice to meet you. My team mate, the lazy one who wouldn't help me before, is Larisa, and my other team mate,
Mark, is off getting pop or something." Dreea let go of Rei's hand and moved to Lee, taking the four suitcases
easily. "Thanks for catching these."

"No problem." Lee replied honestly.

Dreea smiled and turned, making her way back up the stairs, just not slipping this time.

"You sure you can handle those this time?" Rei asked, watching her.

Dreea made it to the top of the stairs and turned to look at him. "Four suitcases I can handle easily. Six are
a bit more difficult, so I'm fine now." she said, smiling a bit. "See you in the battle dome, Rei Kon." with
that, she turned and walked out of sight, Larisa scurrying to follow.

"Wonder if she's a good blader." Lee said.

Rei grinned at his friend. "I have a feeling we'll be finding out soon."
