We were riding through the night like we owned it. Hurricane, Hydra, Spyke, and I were riding in the front. And the rest of the team was riding behind us. I wanted to blast off at full speed, but for once I felt the urge to slow down.

But I think it would be less confusing to start from the beginning. My name is Rashard but I am commonly known as Grimm. I am 14 years old. I was an orphan and was adopted by a Japanese family when I was very young. I have three brothers: Ren, Yuu, and Daichi. They moved out of their parents' home when the oldest turned 18 and I decided to go with them. All three of my brothers rode AT (air trek). Air trek are specially motorized aggressive inline skates, instead of four wheels these skates have two large ones and can move faster than a sports car, and even faster in the hands of a master.

We lived in a pretty big apartment, we weren't rich but we were pretty well off because my brothers had a lot of savings and were good with investments. Ren is 21 and about six feet tall, has jet black hair, and has a pretty good build of muscle. Yuu is my age; he is 5'7, has blond hair, and is a bit more muscular than me. Daichi is 16 and slightly buffer than Ren, has black hair with natural highlights, and is 5'9. I have caramel skin, enough muscle to say I wasn't fat, dark black hair that is always in a fade, and am 5'6.

Ren taught us all AT when he was thirteen, by the time I was a teenager we were all riding like pros. Based on our skills we were given our rider names. I was Grimm, Ren was Beast, Yuu was Thorn, and Daichi was Twister. We all had a similar aura that practically screamed "I will kill you if you cross me."

It was July first, crack down day. Ren called us all to an abandoned construction site around sunset. "Listen up," Ren said with authority. "Its crackdown day and it's time to see what new techniques you have discovered. Twister, you're up first." Twister went to the middle of the construction site with us on the outside of the gate. Whenever one of us trained lately, we all knew well to stand back. Twister was wearing a wind breaker, jean shorts, a cap turned backwards, and green ATs with a white trim. Twister turned to face us and Beast nodded.

Twister bent his knees in a horse stance and was getting ready for his run. Suddenly his wheels started spinning at an incredible rate. As his wheels were accelerating, the wind started to pick up. These were perfect conditions for Twister, the soil on the ground started to spin until a small tornado of wind and soil formed up to his knees. Twister smiled and he jumped 100 feet in the air. He did a twisting back flip and was falling towards the crane; he grabbed the hook of the crane and swung up to the arm. He was riding down the arm but it seemed as if his ATs were not ever touching the metal. He jumped off the crane towards a pile of concrete tunnels; his ATs started to accelerate again and his wheels were beginning to be cloaked by wind. He kicked out his right leg and a gust of wind sliced the tunnels into rubble. As he descended to the ruble, he barely touched a pebble before he kicked off and soared over 500 square feet of construction site toward our direction and landed behind us. Twister smiled, "How'd I do?" Beast nodded, "That was impressive, and you still managed to keep your hat on." "Thanks, but I would've done even better if I had some custom ATs." Beast patted Twister's shoulder," That was the point, to see how good you were using regular ATs, and you passed." Beast turned to Thorn and I. "Looks like we will have to changed location, since you are both at the top of your game during nightfall. How about we use those two abandoned buildings outside of town?" Thorn and I nodded. "Sounds like a plan," we both said in unison.
