CHAPTER 1: THE FINALS

::Moscow, Russia::

"Welcome, boys and girls to the cold and chilling Moscow, Russia!" said AJ.

"That's right AJ and we are also nearing to an end of the competition and the World Tour. Here in Moscow, we will be holding the semi-finals and the finals of the tournament." Said AJ's Partner.

"And please welcome the four finalists. First we have the 3-year-runing champion the BLADEBREAKERS!" Jazzman introduced. The crowd that were seated in the warm stadium gave the loudest cheer as one of the squares parted and a platform was rising, with the bladebreakers standing on it.

"Can we have the stats please?" Jazzman asked.

The screen on the four sides of the stadium turned black before the logo of the bladebreakers appeared. Then the picture of the first blader and the bit-beast appeared.

"Firstly we have the team captain, Kai! His game is a mysterious but we know him as fast and I-don't-waste-time game." Said AJ.

"Yeah and his bit-beast Dranzer will do it straight with her Fire Arrow attack." Said Brad.

"Cat-Boy like Rei is swift and smooth and endurance is his specialty." AJ introduced the next member. "And swift he is with Driger's Tiger Claw attack."

"Next we have hyper and bubbly Max Tate whose offence is his defence and his bit-beast Draciel will make sure of that." Brad continued.

"Second to last we have everybody's favourite Tyson as well as Dragoon and his Demon Hurricane." AJ commented.

"Hehe. What can I say? The crowd loves me!" Tyson commented. The bladebreakers rolled their eyes.

"And lastly the new member and the former Demolition Boy, Tala!" said AJ.

"Along with his ice wolf, Wolborg!" Brad finished off. Everyone cheered again for the bladebreakers before going to the next team.

"Next, please welcome Rei's former team that came all the way from China, the one, the only, the WHITE TIGERS!" Jazzman screamed into the microphone.

The crowd cheered loudly as the White Tigers made their appearance just like the Bladebreakers, with their logo on the screen behind them.

"Ladies first. Mariah may look sweet and caring outside the battle but inside the battle she is cunning and short-tempered and Galux would swipe through your blade."

Mariah, a pink-haired, neko-jin, smirked at the comment than blushed when she noticed the wink Rei sent to her.

"Next we have green-haired, short-stuffed Kevin and his monkey beast. They waste no time on 'goofing' around when there's a job to do."

"After that we have the silent, raging Gary and his bit-beast.

"Lastly we have the team captain Lee and his bit-beast Galleon and their black lightning attack."

The crowd cheered for the third time as the next team made an appearance, their logo replacing the White Tiger's.

"All-starz tennis champion Emily can be very snappy in the dish along with her tryalligator."

"All-starz top footballer Steve kicks off with his trampling bit-beast."

"Top basketball player Eddie can really swipe the floor with is tryscorpio."

"And lastly the team leader can really ditch the pitch with his baseball skill and trygle. Please welcome Michael."

The crowd cheered one last time as the final blading team made their appearance, their logo on the screen. But the cheering stopped suddenly when the top parts of the players were seen. They all watched in awe and confusion was building in their mind as the team was now standing on the platform.

"Err... yeah! Everybody... please welcome... the BLADE ANGELS!" Jazzman continued with his role. Nobody moved to clap, cheer, or any sign of welcome. There, in front of them was what looked like a duplicate of the Bladebreakers except they're all feminine.

A vein started popping on a certain cold-hearted bluenette.

"Will you get on with the stats already!" she screamed. Both AJ and Brad woke up from their trance and continued their job.

"OK, AJ. What do we have here?"

"Well, they are all new entry but let's just give the audience what we know. Firstly we have the team captain Rayne Hiwatari who plays the same tactics as her twin brother Kai along with her bit-beast the Angel of Darkness."

The bladebreakers all gaped at Kai with surprised look on their face and saw Kai raised an eyebrow in surprised as well.

"Next we have fiery, short-tempered Anya Ivanov along side with her bit-beast Trumpcard. You may recognise her as Tala. They both are twins."

"Thirdly, Chinese Vivien Kon comes all the way from China to visit Anya and Rayne ending up in taking part in the tournament, and her bit-beast Silverwings doesn't mind at all either."

This time the White Tigers looked stunned at the unknown Chinese girl as well as Ray who thought all of his family members were dead in the fire.

"Next we have Hubble-bubbly Amber Tate, a complete duplicate of Max Tate who is also a miracle maker along with her bit-beast Miracle. Those two make a miracle come true and they really work as a team."

"And lastly we have our happy-go-luck, matchmaker Alexia Grange. Her tactics are a mirror reflect as the champion Tyson along with her Angel of Love, Petal."

Both Amber and Alexia blushed at the comment they heard about themselves.

"Well there you have it, folks the four teams will compete each other in a three out of two combat in the semi-finals before the two remaining team go head-to-head in a tag team battle in the finals." Jazzman finished off. "Until then..."

"LET IT RIP!" Alexia and Amber both joined the Jazzman in the screaming before they high-five each other, laughing at the excitement when the silence was replace by the screaming coming from the crowd.
