~the next day came and people began flooding into the Sparking Arena, Athena unfortunately was about to learn a terrible truth. Lane had destroyed Hyperion and Helios the night before.~

Athena: Destroyed?! Last night!?

Aiga: Yes, but no need to worry because they finished their new beys this morning.

*he showed her a tablet which showed the specs of the new beys*

Aiga: Hyugas new bey is Hyperion Burn and Hikarus is Helios Volcano.

Athena: They dont have a chassis! It just has some funky looking disk.

Aiga: Thats the thing. They're apart of some new type of Sparking System. The Limit Break System is what they called it. These new types of beys have some sort of special ability that activate when their disks move to a certain point.

Athena: Limit Break System? Special Ability? huh, Interesting..

*the 2nd round of the Legend League was starting, the first match was Aiga Vs Xhaka! The 2 bladers walked to the stadium*

Xhaka: Aiga Akaba. Its been a while.

Aiga: Yeah it has.

Xhaka: Unfortunately, i won't be able to take that Championship Belt off your shoulders but at least I'll have the glory of defeating you!

Aiga: You took the words right out of my mouth.

Athena: They definitely seem fired up.

Valt: Yeah, Aiga and Xhaka are some of the most hot-headed people I know. Put the two together and not even i know whats gonna happen..

Referee: First Battle!

*Aiga had changed to Infinite Shield while Xhaka had flipped his sword winder to the Power side*

Referee: Ready Set!

3 2 1 GO SHOOT!!

*Xcalibur landed in the stadium and spun at high speeds, in fact it was spinning faster than usual. It blew right past Achilles, causing it to go off balance*

Aiga: So fast!

*Achilles was able to recover and sped toward Xcalibur*

Aiga: Infinite Guard!!

*4 shields surround Achilles as Xcalibur began closing the gap*

Xhaka: Heh.. Yeah that'll save you!.. DO IT XCALIBUR!! DESTROY THEM WITH X-SABER!!!

*Xcalibur broke through Achilles' defenses and sent it flying and it hit the ground and burst, leaving Aiga absolutely shocked*

Referee: Zone Xcalibur with a Over Finish! Xhakuenji Kaiza earns 1 point!

Aiga: What in the world was that?!

Xhaka: Just a little technique i came up with. Incredible stuff right?

*The Laughing Giant let out a big laugh*

Aiga: X-Saber.. Looks like Xhaka aint playing around today. In that case, i'll use the Swords this time. Sword Vs Sword as they would say!

Referee: Second Battle! Ready Set!

3 2 1 GO SHOOT!!!

*Achilles and Xcalibur land in the stadium*

Aiga: Now go!!

Xhaka: Finish this in one blow! X-Saber!!

*the two beys clashed hard and began a rapid back and forth frenzy of blows, the incredible sight lit Athenas heart ablaze as she was starting to get fired up. Aiga and Xhaka yelled out as their beys clashed fiercely, it was an all out brawl between Infinite Sword and X-Saber*

Aiga: Send Xcalibur flying! Go Achilles!!

Xhaka: Pierce through it!! Zone Xcalibur!!

*the beys clashed hard as a shockwave blew throughout the arena and Achilles blasts through Xcalibur in an explosive burst finish*

Xhaka: W-What?! Impossible!!!

Referee: Infinite Achilles with a Burst Finish! Aiga Akaba moves on to the semi-finals!!

*the final match of Block A was Athena Vs Free. The 2 bladers stepped up to the stadium*

Athena: Free De La Hoya! Its not going down like it did before, im a changed girl!! Im so much powerful than I was before!!

Free: Your battle with Lui sure made that clear and i congratulate you for that, but you're gonna need more than just power to beat me.

*the battle began as Elaina began cheering for her daughter. Athena had changed to Guide Adeona as she had a clever idea*

Referee: First Battle! Ready Set!!

3 2 1 GO SHOOT!!!

*Fafnir and Adeona landed in the stadium. Adeona speeds into the L Plate and slams into Fafnir*

Free: So you're spinning right? Have it your way then..

*Fafnir absorbed Adeonas spin and sped up as its Nothing driver compressed down to a giga flat. Fafnir sped up even more and zoomed around like a rocket*

Athena: What?!

Free: Crush it with Nothing Break!!!

*Adeona was blown out as it nearly struck Athena in the face*

Referee: Mirage Fafnir, Over Finish! 1 Point to Free De La Hoya!!

Free: "A changed girl" you said.. Wheres the strength when you defeated Lui? Where is it!?

Athena: Adeona.. We'll win the next one.. And with a burst too!!

Referee: Second Battle! Ready Set!

3 2 1 GO SHOOT!!!

*the battle began and Adeona didnt go for Fafnir this time*

Free: Not gonna attack this time?

*Adeona headed into the L Plate and accelerated*

Athena: Keep going!!

Free: Not happening!

*Fafnir blocked Adeonas path and knocked it away*

Athena: Say what!?

Free: You actually think i'll lose in a battle of stamina, get real!

*Fafnir began hammering Adeona with ruthless attacks!*

Free: Its over! Mirage Claw!!

Athena: Its not over until I say its over got it?! Rise Adeona!!

*Athenas coronet came undone as her hair flowed out and turned white. Her flare activated and shined. Lane watched in awe at Athenas new form!*

Athena: You know what to do! Full Power!!

Free: Fafnir!!

*Adeona and Fafnir clashed with EVERYTHING they had. The clashes, dodges and travels in the Plates never stopped. It was an epic battle for the history books. The beys came in for the attack that would decide everything!*

Free: Nothing Break!

Flared Athena: Guiding Upper!!!

*the beys clashed at full power as the stadium rumbled with a massive explosion! Nobody noticed but Adeonas ring started to crack as it burst through Fafnir*

Free: That can't be.. Impossible.

Athena: I.. I actually did it.. I actually defeated Free..

Referee: Guide Adeona with a burst finish! Athena Valhalla moves onto the semi-finals with Aiga Akaba!!

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

*later that day as Athena was getting her hair redone, Aiga walked in*

Athena: Aiga?! What's up!

Aiga: Nothing much really. Kinda wanted to see what you're up to.

Athena: Well im just getting my hair rebraided and that's it.

Aiga: I see. You excited for our Semi-Finals match?

Athena: Yeah, i won't be holding back!

Aiga: Neither will I. I'll see you later!

Athena: Aiga wait!

Aiga: Huh? What is it?

Athena: I just wanted to say thank you for everything. When I was on the wrong track, you helped me and I regained my pride and confidence which worked out for the better and even before then, i always looked up to you and i would always watch your matches.

Aiga: You were a fan even before I became Champion?

Athena: Of course! I supported you through the Longinus Cup, Battleship Cruise and even the horrid Dead Gran! I even watched your battle against Hearts, Kitt, Phi and even Valt. Every time I watch your battles, i get always butterflies and I thought of the day where id get to battle you..

*Athena was now blushing and trembling*

Athena: I guess what I'm trying to say is that... I-I like you.. Like a lot.

*Aiga was a bit taken aback but really couldn't help but smile*

Aiga: Thats really nice of you Athena. But i can't be with you, not romantic aspect at least. But i do appreciate you coming out and telling me how you feel, i can tell that must've taken a lot courage for you to say. I do hope you understand. I have my responsibilities as a World Champion and I have my family to take care of.

*Athena was a little heartbroken but nodded her head*

Athena: I understand.

Aiga: And dont worry, im sure that you'll find someone one day, i know it. I'll see you soon ok?

*Athena waved goodbye and Aiga left. Meanwhile Block B's matches were starting and it was Lane Vs Wakiya!*

Lane: Wakiya Komurasaki. I'll end this match with a burst, there wont be a second battle!!

Wakiya: A burst you say? I'll be the one who wins with a burst!

Referee: First Battle! Ready Set!!
