A/N So...this is my first attempt at a beyblade fanfiction. I will warn you, it is somewhat yaoi. If that isn't your thing, well, you have been warned. Do tell me if I slaughtered the characters, personality wise though, it would be nice to get some feed back. Read and review, please.

"Okay...I'll do that. Will you stay on the phone, so we can – Ok. I'm going."
The last sentence was a bit snappy. Rei picked up the remote from the table as he entered the living room. His teammates looked at him with confusion as he changed the channel. Immediately a news cast was audible...

A/n Yeah...That was kind of confusing, I suppose. I'll try not to have scenes split like that again, but I thought it was a good idea to get a look at what was going on on both ends. Most of the second chapter is written. Please review.
