Beyblade
Fortunes Dear and Dire (2x42)
: 28, 2002
Zeo focuses on Beyblade training with his father Zagart. The most powerful rock Bit-Beast named Cerberus is designated for Zeo, but he must first be able to summon it. Zeo trains furiously, but the elusive Bit Beast never fully materializes. Meanwhile, the Bladebreakers must choose their two team-pairs for the World Beyblade Championships. Hilary brings in a pile of her fortune-telling books to help. They decide that Tyson will team with Max, and Kai with Ray. Not long afterward, Kai meets a strange pair named King and Queen, who are very impressed by Dranzer. They talk Kai into battling them, with Dranzer's attack ring up for grabs if they win. To Kai's surprise, not only do they have Bit Beasts of their own, but they're not above tag-teaming him to avoid defeat. By the end of the battle, Dranzer is so damaged that its attack ring is useless, which sends King and Queen on their way empty-handed. When Kai discusses the incident with his Bladebreaker teammates, it's discovered that King and Queen are infamous 'parts hunters' - Blader’s who search for high-end Beyblade parts from others that they can acquire for themselves. Back at Zagart's lab, Zeo tries summoning Cerberus one last time – and succeeds. Cerberus is a massively powerful canine Bit Beast with three snarling heads. Zeo can't wait to use it against the Bladebreakers to acquire their Bit-Beasts, which are necessary to fulfill his mysterious and still-unrevealed destiny.
