>>> I find that this image represents them so well, as brothers! I am too jealous of all those who know how to draw like that! Congratulations to the artist who drew it!! <<<

While continuing their discussion, Hikaru and Hyuga entered the common training room. But stopped immediately as soon as they saw a young blond blader propelling his bey into one of the stadiums.

" Dante ? " The two brothers called, which made him turn. He smiled and invited them to join him. 

" Hi guys ! ", he greeted warmly, " What brings you here? Aiger and Valt are gone if you're looking for them..."

" Not at all ", the blue-haired blader replied, " We were driving by and thought we'd come and say hello."

" By the way, you're training alone ? " Hyuga asked, a bit sad for his friend.

" Yes, but you can train with me if you want ", the Dragon Tamer proposed in excitement. The two brothers joyfully acquiesced and took out their beys. 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

" Hey, I just thought of something ", Hikaru suddenly announced, turning the heads of the two bladers towards him, " who would win between Valt and Aiger if they had a solo fight? "

" That's easy, Valt! ", Dante shouted.

" But Achilles is almost unbeatable when equipped with its shield and sword ", Hikaru contradicted.

" Yes, but Valt has more experience than Aiger with the Beyblade ", Hyuga argued by looking directly at his brother.

" Yet, Aiger managed to beat Valt and take his title of world champion ", Hikaru replied with as much ferocity as his brother. They both settled long before Dante finally spoke. 

" Anyway, Valt and Aiger couldn't beat Gwyn ", The young bladers turned to the laughing blond.

" You mean the boy you faced in the last battle against Inferno? " Hyuga asked

" Yeah ", Dante grinned, " Eclipse Genesis is really a fantastic bey in a fight. I wonder how Gwyn would manage if he faced Lui or even Lane..."

" As we saw during the Inferno battles, even though Genesis is a Defense type, its attacks are extremely powerful ", Hikaru explained by crossing his arms while thinking.

" And you saw its superior flux ", added Hyuga, " it was really amazing..."

" There's nothing to say, Gwyn is a formidable opponent ", concludes the oldest of the two brothers.

" Yeah, it was a great moment when I finally managed to beat him. I think that of all the bladers I've faced, Gwyn is perhaps the hardest to beat. With Delta, of course! " 

" Oh yes it is true, I remember him ", remembered Hyuga, " and when his bey and your Dragon have been fused, it was amazing! Its power had increased impressively! "

" I'm willing to bet that Delta would have loved to participate in the Legends Festival ", said the smiling blond, " He could have faced legendary, well-known bladers... And if it had been possible, I would have teamed up with him: we would have blown everyone else away ! " 

" In your dreams ", laughed Hikaru, "if I had been with Aiger, it was our team that would have crushed you all. "

" Stop your delusions, it's me and Valt who would have been the champions of the festival ", Hyuga proudly boasted, " In any case, Valt is the best and that's it, he ends up with a smirk. He can explode any bladers present at the tournament. "

" Eh! ", the other two boys complained, offended by the red-haired blader.

" I'll let you know that Aiger is much better than Valt! " Hikaru declared, upset.

" Nonsense ! " Dante laughed.

And the three continued to argue over who would beat who, whether in a solo or tag battle, all afternoon, instead of training as they had originally planned. 

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The last thing Valt expected to find in the common training room was three young bladers lying on the edge of an arena, snoring. He entered the room, followed by most of the Legends, and the full sight of the sleeping three made him laugh: the oldest of the three was leaning against the arena, and the other two were leaning against him, the Dragon Tamer on his right and his younger brother on his left. 

" Hey Honcho, I think Free stole your students ", the previous world champion laughed. Then turned to the blond blader and smiled at him, " Wanna join them ? " That to which Free gave him a dull look, but smiled discreetly.

" I swear this is the only time they are quiet and silent ", said Silas, " what a relief for once! "

" Yeah, they remind me of someone..." Rantaro said, staring out of the eye's corner Aiger.

"  What do you mean ? " The scarlet supernova got mad, but got hissed down.

" He just means that you and the boys, especially with Dante, have the same competitive temperament ", explained Valt with a big smile, amused by the situation.

" They should be moved ", Free suddenly spoke, which took everyone by surprise. But everyone agreed. Valt approached Hyuga and pulled him away from his brother's side. He placed him on his back and placed his arms around his neck. 

" Honcho, you take care of Dante ? " Valt proposed to his best friend.

" No problem! " The blond smiled and approached the sleeping blader. He stretched out his arm, ready to grab his shoulder when he was stopped.

" Hands off, Rantaro Kiyama..."

He turned around neatly. At the entrance of the room had just arrived the terrific Lui Shirosagi. He had a neutral expression and advanced towards the bladers. He passed Rantaro, who had moved to the side, and crouched down near his teammate. He did not hesitate even for half a second: he lifted Dante's right arm, placed it on his shoulder, and, getting up and turning fast enough, placed it on his back. He wrapped both arms firmly around his neck and supported him under his thighs. Then the Winter Knight walked towards the exit and left the common training room. 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Five minutes later :

The automatic doors of the common room opened, letting the champion of Asia pass by with Dante, still asleep. He went to one of the sofas, the sound of the doors closing in the background, and gently placed the blond. Then sat by his side, making sure not to wake him up. He looked at the youngest and immersed himself in his thoughts. He imagined himself, as a child, playing with a much younger Dante. He smiled at this image, almost envious of his imaginary version: when he came back to Japan, no one wanted to talk to him because he seemed so different. He was all alone, with only his imagination for company. Gabe had been his first friend, but what he would have liked was to have a little brother. Maybe not like the Hizashi brothers, but more like the Kiyama. And maybe that's why he liked Dante Koryu so much: he has a personality, certainly, similar to Valt Aoi, but he doesn't let himself be intimidated. Even by him.  The two are similar in some respects, but remain different. Almost like brothers: where Lui is reserved and mocking, Dante is friendly with absolutely everyone! In any case, from his point of view. And in addition, he is also a good blader: their first tag battle had surprised him surprisingly about his abilities. And all those stitches together probably made him want Dante as a partner. He went out of his thoughts when he heard distant voices coming closer. He got up, always making sure not to wake the Dragon Tamer, and went to the exit. But, before leaving the room, he turned his head and took a last look at him. Finally, he left the living room. 

" If anyone touches a single hair of my young dragon, it's not just his bey that I will explode..."

I really think about Lui as a protective big brother ! Do not hesitate to tell me in the comments who you would have loved to see fight 😊 I, I maintain that Gwyn would have made a carnage if he had fought some Legends in Surge.
