"Okay so this story is a bit different from yours Grants." Said Delaney

"Anyways it all began one summer day..."

******Flashback******

"In this story Free was a bit older than your Grant but this was when he got Fafnir."

In this time Free and Trad had been working all day. They hadn't come out for meals and even when it started to get late.

Kris was a little bit worried but when she checked on them Free assured her they were doing fine.

While they were working the rest of the team was practicing. They were actually surprised that Trad and Free didn't show up. Now usually Free didn't show but Trad was always there striving for the team to be practicing. He was a little uptight but he did keep the team on track.

Instead of practicing a group of kids hung out in the back of the gym talking.

"I heard a rumor that Free is upgrading his bey."

"I wonder how powerful it will be."

"If your so curious then go find out."

"Fine."

The group of kids following the leader went to Trad's office. The door was closed but by listening closely the kids could hear the faint sound of the 3D printer.

Each of the kids took a look through the keyhole.

"I want to see!"

"No it's my turn."

"Come on guys I haven't even looked yet."

Before they knew it they were full on yelling and screaming at each other. Trad came out a few moments later and told them to go practice.

"Don't worry guys I've got a plan."

Meanwhile Free had finished Fafnir and had been proudly looking at it. Trad was a bit concerned since Free had been staring at it for a while but he didn't press on.

For Free he was talking to Fafnir and when he was done he told Trad thanks and left his office.

When Free was heading to the forest he was stopped by a large group of kids.

"I challenge you to a battle." One of the kids said holding out a bey.

Then just as he challenged Free the other kids challenged him as well.

"Alright, come on." Free said walking away.

"Wait, I'm confused which one of us do you want to battle?"

"All of you."

The group of kids followed Free to the gym. A large stadium was set up in the center with several launching areas.

"Well then I'm waiting." Free said.

Each blader took up their position in the stadium.

"3..."

"2..."

"1..."

"Let it rip!"

Several beys flew into the stadium; it was an invasion of the Beyblades. Then they all hanged up on Fafnir in the middle. They collided creating a huge burst of power. Then Free got serious, summoning the power of Fafnir the Dragon roared at the challenge.

"Finish this Fafnir!"

A golden aura surrounded Free and lighting erupted from the stadium. Wind threw back everyone's hair causing so bladers to fall over. The only bladers who wasn't fazed was Free. He stood there just watching.

Then when all the action died down the sounds of bursts were heard.

Fafnir stood spinning in the middle while the pieces of burst beys were all around it.

"And that's the story of how Free made his mark on BC Sol. Kids were talking about it for weeks. Some say he took on ten bladers others say it was twenty."

"Whatever the number was it was an intense battle. According to some kids Fafnir showed its true power that day. Now how's that for a story?"

"That's not true besides you weren't there like I was." said Grant.

"Well it did happen."

"Yeah sure Delaney, besides it's just a legend of Free it's not like that actually happened. Taking on 20 bladers at the same time? That's crazy!"

"Well he's the world champion what other bladers could've taken on 20 bladers at the same time?"

"Phi."

"And Gingka Hagane."

"Well whatever that's my story I'd like to see you guys come up with a better one."

"Hey guys."

"Kris!"

"Any particular reason why you guys aren't practicing?"

"Oh sorry Kris we were just telling stories about Free."said Taylor.

"Oh well if that's the case do you guys want to hear my story?"

"Sure!" They all said at the same time.

"Okay so one day Free was training in the gym. Now this was when we were younger. Back then Free used to feel like he wasn't enough. Since my grandfather was busy that day the bladers did their own individual practice session."

"So when I came in to check on the bladers I was horrified. Free was standing across the stadium, his veins were popping out and his arm was covered in blood, scars, and bit marks."

"The people on the other side of the stadium were scared of him. Concerned I took him over to a chair. After rummaging through my grandfather's room I found the perfect thing. Going back over to Free I fastened his gauntlet on his left arm and ever since then he's always had it on."

"Wow now that was a good story." Said Grant.

"Yeah." said Delaney.

"Anyways I've got to go, but don't spend all day talking about Free."

"Okay Kris." said Delaney.

When she was gone they got up to start practice but Taylor stopped them.

"Sorry guys but it's my turn you guys haven't even heard my story." said Taylor.

Sorry for the short chapter but fun fact for the day that story Kris told is actually true there's a page in the manga that talks about the origins of Free's gauntlet. But I don't know Japanese that good so I guessed on some things and it's not that accurate.
