Beyblade Metal Fusion (Fanfiction)

Chapter 3: Phoenix's Flames!

The sky was dark and clouded as helicopters made their way toward the fogged mountains.

Inside one of the helicopters were Kyoya and the rest of the Face Hunters.

Kyoya sat silently, suspicion gnawing at him. The other Face Hunters were also uneasy, exchanging nervous glances.

When the helicopters landed, the group got off, following Kyoya as they were met by the man who had offered his proposal to Kyoya.
Kyoya took in the surroundings, his eyes narrowing in suspicion.

"Hey man, what's the big idea bringing us here, buddy? To a dump like this?" Kyoya demanded.

The man in front of him stood with an air of authority. "I thought you were tired of... losing. Or do you enjoy losing?" he said, his tone mocking.

"What?" Kyoya snapped, clearly offended by the man's words.

"Time to shake things up a bit," the man said, pulling out a comb to brush his hair back.
"I will do all I can to help you win. Everything you need will be prepared for you. What do you think? This is definitely not a bad deal for you."

Kyoya remained skeptical. "There must be something in it for you then?"

"Of course there is... you'll become much stronger, and next time you will defeat him... or her. I don't care either way," the man said, smirking darkly.

Kyoya took in the information, slightly confused. "Him? Her?"

He got the first one, but what did he mean by her?

The man stood in front, answering, "Yes, Gingka Hagane and Haruka Hagane."

Kyoya raised a brow, thinking as he remembered the young female with red hair and a yellow fiery scarf at the top of the metal tower.
He connected the dots due to their resemblance.
"So they're siblings..."

"Yes, two siblings who have a strong will to fight and win," the man mentioned.

Kyoya clenched his fist, remembering his defeat. "Gingka Hagane...."

The man observed Kyoya's reaction with satisfaction. "Your rivalry with Gingka is well-known. But Haruka, she is just as formidable.
Together, they are a force to be reckoned with."
...

The cozy food place hummed with the lively chatter of patrons enjoying their meals.

Gingka, Haruka, Kenta, and Madoka were seated beside each other, eating burgers. They were amidst a relaxed time, the atmosphere warm and friendly.

As both siblings enjoyed their burgers, mirroring each other more than before, Kenta and Madoka found it very wholesome.

Madoka, who had been observing quietly, spoke up, "You know, I didn't notice this much before, but you both really look alike."

Haruka, sipping on her drink, glanced up to Madoka and sighed softly, "It's been a long time since someone pointed that out."

Kenta, curious, asked, "So you get told that often?"

Haruka gave a small smile. "Yeah, pretty much whenever we move to a new town, it's a common observation."

Gingka, thinking, lightly chuckled, "Yeah... I remember one time when we moved to a certain town, a kid mentioned the same thing, and Haruka knocked him out cold after he wouldn't stop mentioning it."

Madoka's eyes widened in surprise, and she shifted uncomfortably.
Kenta, startled by the sudden shift in conversation, moved back.

Haruka, noticing their reactions, flailed her hands, flustered. "Oh no, no, I wouldn't do that to you guys. Gingka is just exaggerating," she said, lightly nudging him.
