The beginning of a battle
Rockaku takes Reiji and Daisuke to the tournament location. When they arrive, Chibi falls into a river and is found by two mysterious twins. Reiji goes looking for Chibi, and ends up finding him with the twins. The twins have tied him to a rope and is forcing him to dance on a ball in the middle of the ocean. Reiji is furious and demands Chibi back, but the twins refuse because they found him and say they own him. Plus, he is much more entertaining than their previous dragon. The twins' escort appears and tells him that she'll pay him a bunch of money if he lets them keep it. Reiji refuses the money and the twins are shocked about how ungreedy he is. They call forth this giant fish to eat Chibi and their previous lame old dragon. Can Reiji save Chibi and the other dragon?

Dragon Drive
Oozora Reiji isn't a lazy boy, he's just terribly unmotivated; all the clubs and activities he's joined don't interest him for long. That is, of course, until his best friend Yukino takes him to a underground arcade where an unbelievable virtual reality game is played - Dragon Drive - in which players fight each other with virtual dragons. Reiji ends up throwing all he's got into training a dragon so rare that the Dragon Drive staff are baffled. But soon Reiji learns that Dragon Drive isn't all it seems, and he might be the only one who can save an entire world from evil.
