Free's Best Friend

Chapter Two

   My best pal, Free goes up next, while I catch my sleep in the corner over here.
   Free's POV
  Of course she'd be asleep, after all I work her up around 5 in the morning. Which wasn't like me, at all. Anyways this Valt person, sure got a lot of praise from Lucy. Yet, I honestly doubt he'll win against me.
   I am in the top five after all, Lucy would be. But since she wears a mask, and no one,knows her identity minus a couple of people, she can't make it to the top five.
    Valt has a flat launcher, he's either going to use a rush launch from what Lucy told me. Or he's acting like a big shot. Either way, I'll win.
    "Winning, is a great feeling is it not?" I ask. Valt nods, "Too bad you won't experience it." I say. I could end it fast,or do what Lucy did. Which I didn't expect her to do.
   I'll make it last longer, so this kid thinks he has a chance. We do the count down, just as I toss my bey, Lucy wakes up. I saw it out of the corner of my eye. She stretches, then walks over and sits mear the stadium.
   "I want to watch this first hand," She says. I nod. She looks unamused, which I would be too if I put a ton of hope into one person.
    "May I help you, kid?" She asks. Valt nods, "Turn your front foot towards him," She says pointing at Honcho.
   "Then make your arm when your launching go like this," she says showing him.
  Still the same, I see. Always helping my challengers. Well unless its an official match.
  Anyways, I just toss mine in ever so slowly. It wobbles, but rentlessly it tames the center.
  This Valt kid, looks excited. Either he loves blading, or thinks he can win. I can tell Lucy, sees it as well.
    Valt does he's rush launch, which is pretty sad for him. Cause he doesn't even realize he was giving me more power and speed.
   His bey runs out of speed fairly quickly. I yawn, "You could've tried harder you know,"
  I win, and seeing since Lucy was about to fall asleep again, I tap her shoulder. "Let's go," I say. She nods and hops up. After a few steps, I could tell one of her legs were asleep, so I held out my hand. Which she grabbed, and I lead her out to our favorite spot.
    Where the deer always was. "Do you want to sleep or stay out here?" I asked her.  "Stay out here," she responds. I nod and we take in the beautiful scenery.
    Valt's POV
"How could they just leave?!?!" He asks. "That's just them, that's how they are," The blue haired girl says.
