Disclaimer: I do not own Brink or anything related to disney...besides the odd action figure I've recieved over the years. heh

Anyways I don't own any of the characters except one that I made up not in the original Disney Movie. I only own the added bit of plot I've thrown in. Please enjoy!

Summ.-Even though the Brinkers are having a difficult time there's room in the house for another mouth to feed. How will Venice Beach react to the new addition and how will Team X-Bladz handle their captain's reaction.

Racing out of his room Brink threw a dirty sock in the hamper next to the door and grabbed his backpack with skates attached before bounding down the stairs, his blue shirt turning into a blur. He hopped the last few steps gliding his hands down the railing and spinning around the corner quickly. His messy hair continued to swing in his eyes as he ran into his mother.

"Eoh! Morning," she said, pushing past the hurried teen as he went to the fridge and pulled out a bottle of Hershey's syrup. "What up Katie?" he asked as he poured it into his mouth. "Let me guess. Going to Venice beach?" asked a girl in a red shirt and an overoll dress. She continued to get her own breakfast giving him a look from her place standing on a small step so she could reach the plates and mugs.

"You know it," came the muffled reply from the chocolate mouthed teen. Brink ran over to another cabinet, pulling it open. About to pull out a glass his mother took the syrup bottle, "Oh stop foregeing! Sit down and eat something!" Brink let her have it and continued his scavanging of the cabinet. "I can't mom I'm late," he said shoving something into a pocket. He close the door quickly before heading for the exit of the kitchen.

His mother grabbed his arm as he started to run from the room, "Wait wait wait. Did you clean your room?"

"That's why I'm late!"

"Uh! What- Don't forget your cousin is-" she started before he turned away and continued to leave causing her to shake her head. 'Teenagers' was probably her only thought on the matter. Running into his dad holding the paper. Brink grinned.

"Woah hey watch it."

"What up dad," Brink tapped his dad lightly before slipping past him and finally making his get-away to the outside of the house.

"English! That up!" he heard his dad yell from behind him and he shook his head still grinning and heading out.

Of all the days he had to clean his room it had to be the morning of the last day of summer. So of course it had made him late and he had a feeling the guys...and Gabby wouldn't be too pleased when he got to the bus stop. Throwing on his headphones he ran quickly to the bus stop hoping that he could still make it.

Peter glanced at his watch. "He'll be here. He said he'd be here," he commented gazing longingly in the direction Brink should have already come from. He really REALLY didn't feel like waiting for another bus should they miss this one. "Maybe something happened to him," said Jordy, "I mean maybe he got hit by a car. Or maybe his dad's back started acting up again and they had to rush him to the hospital." "Or maybe he got kidnapped by aliens," said Gabriella pretending to be serious. "Hey don't joke. That happened to an uncle of mine," said Jordy. Gabriella let out a laugh, "You're a lunatic. D'you know that?"

"Oh man," sighed Peter as the bus drove straight by them. The three hung their heads. They'd miss the stupid bus. "Great! This is the weekend. Do you have any idea how long we're going to have to wait for the next bus," Gabriella asked gesturing with her hand at the bus stop.

It was then that the forth amigo ran up almost out of breathe. "Yo guys. What up?" he asked pulling off his head phones. The three looked up at him.

"Uh lateness," said Peter.

"Dude choreness! My mom made me clean my room before I could leave," he said almost pleading and feeling guilty.

"Fine," he responded, "But we're gonna be late and have to wait to use the pit."

Brink looked excited, getting an idea. "I don't think sooo." Brink sat down on the bench next to his friends, grinning and showed his skates, "Ahhha," he said as if unmastering a great idea. "Wait a minute wait a minute. You're not thinking of skating to the beach are you?"

"Well why not Jordy?" asked Brink as the others started changing into their skates as well. "Well GUYS it's like A million miles away!"

Brink finished a skate and started onto the other, "Ah Jordy Jordy JORDY. Did you wake up this morning and tell yourself, 'Today I'm gonna talk. Or today I'm gonna skate.' " He sighed as Gabriella turned to him smiling, "Well come on put 'em on," she said to Jordy and they finished changing their gear.

The skate to the Pit wasn't all that exciting besides for Brink reminding everyone it was the last day of summer which caused many groans and curses at him. He continued to grin though pulling off stunts as they neared the beach around and over tables along with the others. Skating under the arch that read Santa Monica he grinned.

Finally making it to the Pit they grinned having been the first there. Skating around a bit and warming up getting ready to practice some harder stunts Brink skated about calling out a few pointers. "Gabriella watch your back leg," he said as she skated down a rail. "Watch your own back leg," she shot back as she skated away to try something else causing Brink to grin and shake his head.

He skated over to Peter who pointed, "Hey check it out." he asked and pointed at a photographer with a hat that read ' in.line skater magazine'. "He's from in.line magazine," he said confused. Gabriella skated up, "What's he doing over here?" she asked nodding at the photographer nearby. "He must 'uve heard about us," said Peter and Brink smiled. Jordy listened in as they talked.

"Coooool," said Brink. "Let's show him what soul skatings all about!" he said and they charged off in separte directions pulling off various stunts and routines. As everyone continued skating Jordy stopped and watched the camera guy, "Hey what's he waiting for," he asked as the others skated up. They turned and looked, seeing the guy was looking at his watch.

Suddenly a blur of yellow and black like a mini swarm of bees went flying past them all. Well they may not have been actual bees but they were just as annoying." Team X-Bladz," muttered Peter. "Ah forget them. We've still got the Pit right? come on Big Pete, I wanna see a 540. Let's go!" he said skating off as the team known as X-Bladz continued to take pictures nearby with the magazine guy and XBladz manager.

Pete took a breathe before skating forward and starting to pull the 540 before falling on his hand and tumbling down the pike and landing on his front. He winced as he started to get up.

Across the pit XBladz manager pulled down his shades and whistled. "ouch," he commented as one of his skaters with long brown hair stopped next to him. "He tried to go bio on a 540. One and a half rotations horizontal in the air." The manager nodded. "You can do that right?" "In my sleep, replied the brown hair boy smuggly.

"Jimmy," called the photographer to the manager. "I'm on a tight schedule here can we possibly shot these somewhere else?"

"Nah nah I want a picture of the Bladz in the Pit. I've just got to figure how to get rid of these losers," he said watching Brink and the others helping Peter.

"Oh I know 'em. I'll just ask them to leave," said the Bladz skater casually.

"They'll do that for you?" asked Jimmy almost skeptically. "OFcourse." "Cool."

He then skated off bringing one of the other skaters with him towards the pit.

Brink said something to Peter before skating off to try another run when out of nowhere the XBladz skater appeared infront of him and Brink had to swerve to miss him and ended up falling over hard a few feet away, hitting one of the obstacles.

"Ow," said the other skater wincing a bit.

Peter skated over quickly and started helping him up. "Yo Brink you ok man?" "Yea no problemo," he said looking a bit disoriented as he stood.

"Hey Brink what up?" asked the XBladz skater as he skated over. "Now you going to to do that for the invitationals or are you saving it for the championships?"

Brink watched as the other X-Bladz skaters laughed. "You know what Val. I don't think you skate so good anymore man. I don't know. Maybe you should bag both competitions," he said back.

"Nah," said the brown haired skater, now known as Val. "I'd have to give back all this cool stuff," he said tugging on his yellow Team X-Bladz shirt and smirking.

"Ooooh sponsored skaters," said Peter scoffing. "Big deal."

"It is a big deal," said Arne, another of the X skaters. He seemed to be like the gang's little toadie always having to have a say in things. "Team X-Bladz rules. Everybody knows that," he said. Gabriella started to roll her eyes, arms crossed.

"Speaking of which we've got a photoshoot to do here. Mind getting lost?" said Val with a smirk.

"Mind if I kick your butt?" asked Gabriella, eyes narrowed.

"Wait," said Brink, holding out an arm to signal a ceasefire from the comments. "We had the pit first. You know how it is," said Brink shrugging with a smile that was starting to form. "Yea. But. We have it now," said Val not even blinking and watching Brink. "See you guys. left. The pit. B.J.'s using it. isn't that right Beejeh?" he called to one of the X-Blade skaters who was nearby taking off his helmet to fix it on one of the obsticales. He nodded.

"Ah man," said Jordy. "You guys snaked it and you know it!" Val shrugged. "You guys should have had someone save your place...you know how it is," he said glancing at Brink who sighed, looking defeated.

"Val you are such a jerk!" yelled Gabby. Arne laughed, "And you too worm." He stopped laughing. "Hey Gabriella. Ever been arrested for impersonating a boy."

"No. You?" she shot back.

Brink now laughed and the other smiled.

"Forget about it," said Val to Arne. "Maybe one day they'll be good enough and someone will want to put their face on a magazine...maybe not."

Brink sighed, "Come on. Let's go," he said and they skated off the Pit.

Skating out of the area and heading towards the boardwalk Brink glanced around and saw something motioning to the guys...and Gabey. "Check it out guys I've got an idea," he said grinning and skating towards an area.

He skated up to a group of skateboarders in their 20s about. "Excuse me guys. But can I ask you a question?" he asked causing them to stop and watch him as if saying continue and coming closer to hear him. "Yea?" said the supposed leader in a grey shirt and orange shades. "Um..All skateboarders aren't wusses are they?" Gabriella, Pete and Jordy exchanged an alarmed look.

"I mean no no no no," he said as one of the skaters took off their helmet giving him an evil eye. "They all can't be no talent no skill half smart inline skating wannabes am I right?"

The orange shaded man took a step down, coming more level with Brink, "What was that?"

"Dude dude personally I don't think that at all," he said holding up his hands in defense. "Alright? That's exactly what those guys over there told us," he said pointing over towards the Pit and Team X-Bladz." The orange shaded man followed Brink's finger and watched them skating for a moment. "Those guys said that?" "Yea man," said Brink nodding. "Let's go," he said to one of his fellow skateboarders and the group skated away heading for the Pit.

"Ah man. Val's gonna freak!," said Jordy. "If he lives!" said Gabriella joining in the laughter. Meanwhile the orange shade guy pulled Val's shirt by the back of the neck while the others bothered his teammates. "Heard you been talking about me." he said shoving him a bit. The group continued to laugh watching Val look startled and confused as he continued to get poked at. He glanced over and saw the four of them. "Why don't you say it to my face. Huh. You got something to say?" Val narrowed his eyes at them and they gave the thumbs up sign.

Skating away and heading back in the direction they had come they continued to laugh. "Hey Pete what time is it?" called Brink as they took a break, taking a sip from his water bottle. "Well it's about...two o'clock, why?" he asked. "Oh man I got to get back." he said slipping his drink back into place. "What's the rush?" asked Gabby. "Yea what's the rush man. Last day of summer," said Peter.

"My cousin's coming today remember?" he said squinting a bit into the sun as he turned to face his friends. "What the little three year old about a few hours away?" Brink shook his head, "Nah the chick our age from San Fran," he said. "Well technically at least. She lived there and in what's it called..Napa?" The other shrugged. Like they'd know. It wasn't their cousin. "Anyways she's coming today. Remember how I said we're houseing someone for a while?" Gabby nodded. "Well she's it. We got cousin Mandy to play with."

Gabby nodded, "Well cool. Can we come meet her?" Brink grinned. "Awesome!" The other two guys shrugged as if to say cool as well and started off with Brink and Gabby. "You guys better not by coming just to check her out," said Brink teasingly and the others rolled their eyes. "Dude it's your cousin. I feel bad enough for her as it is without her going out with one of those two." said Gabby. "Hey!" said Peter and she laughed, pushing Pete lightly.

"Come on race ya," she called to everyone and they headed off for Brink's house to catch a glimpse of the newcomer. It was quite possible the new school year could have some entertainment to it now.
