Hizashis: (Groans)

Hinata: (Even with me, Hikari, and my brothers attacking Free together, we didn't stand a chance.) (Growls)

Rantaro: Phew! Like a said, Free's a real monster.

Valt: True, but the four of them made him get serious. That's something.

Akane: I think he senses something in them.

Free's leaving

Hizashi Bros: (Gasps) Free?!

Hikaru: Hold on a second!

Hyuga: One more battle!

Hyuga and Hikari ran after him, but he's not around.

Hikari: Aw, come on, Free! Wait. He vanished?

Selena: Hikaru, it's like Free just disappeared on us!

Hikaru: He's gotta be around here somewhere.

Valt: He went off to do his usual training.

Hinata and Hyuga: His training?

(In the forest)

Hyuga: One more, just one more time! We're gonna battle again! Watch!

Hinata: Hmm. (How can I win against Free?)

Valt: We're here!

Hinata: (Gasps)

Hizashi Sisters: A lake?

Selena: I feel like I've seen this place before.

Hikari: Oh, there he is!

Hyuga: That's his training? But he's not doing anything!

Rantaro: It's known as Zen meditation.

Hikari: What's that?

Selena: I know what that is. A kind of training that can help you raise your concentration.

Hikaru: Concentration, huh?

Hinata: All right!

Hizashis and Selena: We'll do it, too!

Hyuga: Yo, Free? You asleep? Hey!

Hikari: (Laughs) Oh, good! You're awake!

Hyuga: Can you show us how to do that meditation thingie?

Free looks at them and closes his eyes again.

Hyuga: Come on! Don't ignore me!

Hikaru: We just have to do what he does. (Grunts)

Hinata: Guess there's no choice.

Selena: Wanna join?

Hikari: Heh. That's easy-peasy.

Hyuga: Copycat time! (Grunts)

Valt: Okay. I'm gonna head back for some training of my own.

Akane: Babe! I'm coming, too!

Rantaro: (Laughs) Guess I'll practice myself.

(4 minutes later)

Hyuga: CONCENTRATE!!! Concentrate! Concentrate! Concentrate! Concentrate! Concentrate! Concentrate! Super concentrate! Concen-

Hinata slaps Hyuga in the back of his head.

Hinata: 💢 WILL YOU SHUT UP?!

Hikaru: We can't concentrate on anything with your shouting!

Hyuga: Huh?

Hikaru: Uh, right, Free?

Free: ...

Hizashi Bros: Wow. He's so focused.

Hikari: So does Selena. She hasn't flinch one bit.

Free: Be the void.

Hikaru: Huh?

Hyuga: (Groaning)

Free: (Sighs)

Hikaru: So does that mean we need to empty our minds?

Selena: Yes, Hikaru.

Hikari: Hyuga, would you stop making that noise?! Cut it out!

(Stomach rumbles)

Hyuga: (Groans) All this concentrating's making me hungry.

Honcho's doing some push-ups.

Rantaro: 394, 395, 396, 397, 398, 399, 400! (Laughs) Eh? Hmm? (Grunts)

He looks at the group and sees Hyuga fall asleep again.

Hyuga: (Snoring)

Rantaro: You've gotta be kidding me. Hyuga fell asleep.

Selena and Hikaru opened their eyes.

Hikaru: Huh?!

Hikari: Hey, where'd he go?

Hikaru: Hyuga, wake up! Let's go!

Hyuga: Huh? (Grunting)

Selena: Free disappear again!

Hinata: Hey, Free!

Hyuga: Where'd you go?!

Hikaru: (Gasps) There he is!

Selena: Up there!

Hyuga and Hikari: Amazing!

Selena: With just his arms?

Hizashi Bros: I can do that!

Hizashi Sisters: Same for us!

Selena: Don't leave me behind!

Rantaro: Be careful now, you five!

Hikaru: I'm gonna catch up to him!

Hyuga: Just keep climbing up!

Hinata: Just a little more!

Hikari: Whoa! (Grab Hinata's tail)

Hinata: (Shrieks) Hikari!

Hikari: I'm sorry! I slipped!

Free: You can't keep up with me.

Hyuga: Whoa, seriously?

Hikaru: Hyuga!

Hyuga: Hikaru!

Hizashi Bros: Ready! Go!

Hinata: Hikari, I'm gonna swing you to the next vine.

Hikari: Okay!

Hinata swings Hikari with her tail

Hizashi Sisters: 1, 2, 3!

Selena: What's the matter? Can't keep up?

Hizashi Sisters: Course we can!!!

Hyuga: This is awesome!

Hikaru: I'm right behind you!

Selena: This is easy!

Free flips to the next vine and Selena grabbed the next one.

Hyuga: Here we come! (Grunting)

Hikaru: True heroes can fly!

Hizashi Bros: Uh...

Hyuga: Whoa!

Hizashi Sisters: HYUGA! HIKARU!

Free: So that's it, huh?

Selena: Huh?

Hizashi Bros: We're not done yet!

Hyuga's vine was starting to snap.

Hyuga: Whaah!

Hikari: We got you!

Hyuga: Hikari! Hikaru!

Hikaru: (Grunting) Come on. Pull yourself up!

Hyuga: (Grunting)

Hyuga starts to climb his vine, but Hikaru and Hikari lose their grips and start to fall.

Hinata and Free caught them.

(Later)

Free: You guys are weak.

Hikaru: Oh, no, we aren't!

Hikari: (Pouting) What makes you say that?

Hyuga: Phew!

Free: Well, I'm moving on.

Hyuga: What? You mean there's more?

Free: Two-on-one battles.

Selena and Hizashis: Huh?

Hyuga: So you're gonna battle us?!

Free: Okay. You two first. (Points at Selena and Hikaru)

Hinata: Hikaru and Selena?

Hyuga: What?! You got a problem with me battling first or somethin'?!

Selena: It's worth a try.

Hikaru: (Gasps and sighs)

(At El Astro)

Hanami: That's right! It's me, Hanami! Now Free is up against Selena Mikazuki and Hikaru Hizashi from Japan in a two-on-one showdown! This match is a huge opportunity for Hikaru and Selena to rank up!

Valt: Looks like Free's taking this seriously.

Rantaro: Yeah! Of course he is!

Referee: This match will be the first to two points! First battle!

Hikaru: (My arms are still tired from earlier.) (Groans)

Selena: (The first time teaming up with Hikaru last time, was that battle against Cap'n.)

Free: This is your chance.

Hikaru: Huh?

Free: This is your chance to prove to me you're someone that's worth battling. I'll begin with a Lightning Launch. Can you keep up?

Selena: Yes.

Hikaru: (Sighing) Of course we're gonna be able to keep up!

Referee: Ready. Set!

3, 2, 1, Let it Rip!!! 💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥

Hyuga: A Lightning Launch!

Selena: We did it, Hikaru!

Hikaru: (Grunts) Yeah, we did it!

Valt: Hikaru and Selena seems that they're pretty relaxed.

Rantaro: That must be thanks to all my training.

Akane: Really? I don't see you doing any better.

Hanami: Wahoo! Lunar Selene and Kolossal Helios are gaining momentum and keeping pace with Mirage Fafnir!

Free: Not bad, but this is only the beginning.

Hanami: They clash head-on! Whoa! Helios holds strong!

Selena: Nice job, Hikaru!

Hikaru: All right! I got the center!

Free: Huh. You're aiming for a stamina battle against Fafnir? Have it your way, then.

Hanami: These attacks just won't let up! Fafnir chipping away Helios' stamina!

Rantaro: That Fafnir's really one tough cookie.

Selena: Selene, help Helios! Xtend Counter!

Hanami: Selene comes in with assists!

Hikaru: Thanks, Selena!

Hikaru: Now Whirl Counter!

Hanami: And Helios counterattacks!

Free: Nicely done. I like the way this is going.

Hanami: All Beys have given it their all, but one little stamina we have left is waning! Which one of them is gonna stop first?!

Hyuga: (Groans) Keep going!

Hizashi Sisters: Selena!

Selena and Hikaru: SELENE/HELIOS!!!

Selena: HOLD ON!!!!

Selene: (Yells)

Hikaru: HANG IN THERE!!!!

Helios: (Yells)

Free: (Gasps)

They hit themselves and then

Referee: Kolossal Helios and Lunar Selene with a survivor finish! One point goes to Selena Mikazuki and Hikaru Hizashi!

Selena: Hooray!

Hikaru: Yeah!

(Crowd cheering)

Hyuga: They did it!

Hanami: Absolutely unbelievable! Selene and Helios were spinning for a split second longer!

Hizashi Sisters: They did it! They did it!

Rantaro: What do you know? They took Fafnir on in a stamina battle and still won!

Valt: They've managed to get a point off Free!

Free: You both have proven yourself.

Referee: Second battle!

Selena: (We'll do another launch form and attack again.)

Rantaro: Free is spicing up his setup.

Valt: Yeah, he is.

Hinata: What do you think that is?

Akane: He's going to use his Counter Mode.

Selena: You think you're the only one who has a trick up your sleeve?

Selena flipped her Bey's ring over and change her driver in Defense Mode.

Hyuga: (Gasps) She flipped Selene over!

Hikari: I think that's her new technique.

Hinata: Could that be...

Referee: Ready. Set!

3, 2, 1, Let it Rip!!! 💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥

Hanami: Once again, we got triple Lightning Launches! But, wait! Why is Selene spinning the other way?!

Akane: She changed Selene into counterclockwise!

Hikaru: How's that?

Hanami: Kolossal Helios fires the first attack!

Free: (That won't work.)

Hanami: Oh, wow! Did you see that?! Mirage Fafnir's now able to parry each one of Helios and Selene's attacks! None of them seems to land!

Hikaru: What the?

Selena: It's stronger than before.

Free: (Yells) FAFNIR!!! (Summon avatar) GO! MIRAGE CLAW!!!

Hikaru: (Gasps)

Selena: Hikaru!

Referee: Mirage Fafnir, with a burst finish! With the score of 2-1, Free De La Hoya is the winner!

Hanami: Unbelievable! Fafnir settles the score with a single blow!

Rantaro: That is the power of the Blading Legend!

Hyuga: (Gasping)

Hinata: Selena and Hikaru lost?

Hikari: This can't be.

Hikaru: (Gasps)

Free: (Chuckles)
