TK: This is just what you can call a preview. I'm indecisive on whether or not I should continue it...It was just some random idea I thought I might try out...So tell me what you think. And Linear is pronounced 'Lenny-yare'

Disclaimer: Here I go again...I own nothing Beyblade related, and probably never will. The OCs and...still forming plot is mine.

Linear

"Linear! What did you do?!" Screamed Matilda

"I don't know! I don't know! It was supposed to turn into flowers, not a snake!" Screamed Linear as the pair continued to run way from the giant snake that was slithering at an incredible speed towards them.

"Change it back! Change it back!" Yelled Matilda as she looked back only to run faster.

The pair continued to run…but how this all started, it must be told from the very beginning. So let's rewind back to the start of the day…

An ordinary plain two-story white house stood tall and proud, its luscious green yard decorated the front of this ordinary home. In front of the house and beyond the yard sat a small wooden white fence, not meant to keep anyone out, more like to add on to the decorations.

Within this ordinary house contained a spotless kitchen, an organized living room, and four bedrooms. Each door of each bedroom was ordinary and white…except for one.

This one door that stood out among the rest was located at the farthest end of the hall of this ordinary house. Decorated on the white door were yellow 'Caution' tape and a white board with a picture of a fierce looking…beaver? No, rabbit…uh…but anyway the picture was hanging on the door.

And unlike any other room in this ordinary house, this room was a complete mess. Mass of papers littered the small desk located adjacent from the window, books were scattered on the floor, and book bags of various designs were pushed up against the white wall. Posters of various bands clung onto the white room. It was a clutter of items everywhere!

What this out of the ordinary bedroom contained was an out of the ordinary person.

A bob of extremely bright orange could be seen peeping out of the navy blue plaid bed sheet, sleeping soundlessly…

Brrrriiiiinnnnngggg—TWACK

A slightly tanned arm stretched out of the cover and swatted the alarm clock shamelessly to the ground. A light groan emitted from under the covers, and out emerged a much disheveled female. Her bright golden eyes exemplifying her bright orange hair, which was short, cropped to the point that the only thing she could do with it was spike it. She rubbed her eyes and groggily got up and walked towards the mirror. Upon seeing her messy reflection she flinched back in fear.

"I am a mess…need shower…"

She grabbed her towel that was hanging limply on her desk chair and dragged her feet unwillingly towards the restroom, which was located inconveniently at the end of the hall. Once she reached the restroom she tried the knob. It was locked. Her eyes spread wide open. She began to obstinately bang on the door.

"Julia! Julia! Get out! I know you've been there for two hours! I need to shower too!" She stopped momentarily in order to hear Julia's reply.

"Well that's too bad isn't, Linear? You should have woken up early just like me."

Linear's eye began to twitch, "Well so-rry! I like sleeping in! Now hurry up! I'm gonna be late to school!" Linear began to bang her head on the door with quick strides, until the door finally opened and she fell forward and onto the floor with a loud 'thud'.

Julia had fair skin and long two-toned colored hair. Brunette in the back and golden orange in the front; she crossed her arms and stared down with annoyed green eyes at her younger sister.

"Why do you have to be so weird Linear? Can't you try to act normal? People do know we're related!"

It was hard for people who had never known the sisters to believe that they were related since from the color of their hair to their personality, they differed extremely.

Linear picked herself up and glared at Julia before closing the bathroom door.

--

Downstairs, a small crowd of three was already waiting when Julia descended. Two out of the three were males, father and son. The son was Julia's twin, Raul. He also had two-toned hair, brunette in the back but blood red in front. Their mother, a slightly plumped lady turned towards Julia.

"Julia," She stated in a Spanish accent, "where is your sister? She will be late again!"

Julia rolled her eyes and took a seat at the table, "She's upstairs taking a shower."

"Still?"

"Yeah."

"Goodness me! That girl needs to get up early!"

Raul rolled his eyes, "Maybe someone here needs to stop hogging the restroom."

Julia sneered at her twin, "It takes a lot of time to perfect my beauty."

"You're so vain"

"I speak only of the truth."

The two teens continued to bicker when Linear finally made her way down, a bright smile on her face.

"Morning mom! Morning dad! Morning Raul! And morning…Julia" She sang, except for the last one which she grumbled. Julia ignored her and took a bite out of her toast. Their father, a tall and lean man ushered Linear to sit.

"Morning sweetheart, hurry and eat your breakfast, you don't want to be late again!"

"Yes dad."

Linear grabbed some toast and spread it with butter and then spread strawberry jam on it. She bit into it with a bright smile, her golden eyes dancing.

Raul grinned, "Hey Lin!"

"Yes, yes, my dear brother?"

"You wanna stay after school to watch me and the guys play?"

Liner held a finger on her chin; she glanced questioningly at her brother, "Why?"

Raul shrugged his shoulders, "Well, if you don't want…I guess you can't have ice-cream"

"Ice-cream?!"

Raul smirked, "Ice-cream"

"I'll stay! Can I bring Mattie?!"

"Sure, sure."

Raul watched as Linear clapped in happiness. He liked her a lot; okay, she did weird things and was always found at the wrong places and at the wrong times, but he loved her anyway. They may not be related by blood, but it was all the same to him. They were all the same age, 16, but Linear was two months younger than them. His parents had found her when she was eight; she was sitting in the park staring up at the stormy sky as the rain poured down on her; clutching a small bag that contained her identification. They didn't have the heart to leave her, and the moment they took her in they fell in love with the strange girl.

"Okay, okay. Less talking, more eating. You have to walk you know!" Scolded their mother; the twins rolled their eyes while Linear scrunched up her nose.

"I propose that we hitch a ride!"

Julia shook her head, "With whom, a giant bird?"

Linear's eyes expanded, she leaned her head towards Julia and whispered, "You know about that?"

Julia just stared blankly at her sister, "What? I was being sarcastic."

Linear let out a relieved sigh, "Oh good!" She gave Julia a serious look, "We never had this conversation."

Julia dropped her toast and picked up her plate, "I'm finished. If I sit at this table any longer, I'll get infected with whatever virus is flowing through her veins."

"Julia!" Scolded their father. Julia rolled her eyes, "Sorry! But it's true…" She mumbled the last part to herself. She loved Linear, she honestly did. But couldn't she act normal for once in her life? She was entertaining but it was embarrassing to know that your own sister was practically the laughing stock at school. Julia glanced back at Linear who was finishing up her orange juice. Didn't she understand how it hurt to hear people whisper amongst each other about her own sister? She hated it, but Linear continuously acted like she didn't hear, like she was deaf. Linear wasn't a loner, she had plenty of friends who liked her; it was just the rest of the school who found her an abstract to society.

Their father glanced at his watch, "Oh! You better leave! You have fifteen minutes to power walk to school!"

"Kay!"

The teens stood up and grabbed their book bags. They went to Lockhart private school and wore the Lockhart uniform. For girls it was a mid-thigh plaid green skirt with a white collared shirt. For the guys, it was also the plaid color design except as pants, with a white collared shirt and a green jacket if they wished to wear it. It was ugly to everyone but Linear. She adored the uniform and wore it proudly.

The teens had managed to make it to the school with two minutes to spar. Linear sat down in the back looking around.

"Hey Lin!"

Linear turned and waved enthusiastically at her best friend Matilda. Matilda was short with short pink colored hair and brownish red eyes.

Mattie took a seat next to Linear, "You actually made it on time."

Linear smiled sheepishly, "I know!" Suddenly, Linear tensed up and slowly turned towards the front of the classroom. Matilda rolled her eyes, she knew this reaction; she knew it very well. He was close. Linear had some built in radar that told her when he was around. It was weird…but it's Linear, so it's normal…kind of.

Just then, he walked in. His hands in his pockets and his book bag slung effortlessly over his shoulder. His name: Kai Hiwatari. His status: The biggest, but most liked, jerk on campus. He had two-toned disheveled hair: black in back and slate grey up front. He even made the uniform look decent, but to Linear, who liked the uniform, thought he made it look like a work of art.

Matilda sighed, "Here we go again. Why don't you try someone who is not Kai Hiwatari?"

Linear turned to Matilda and gave her a look of disbelief, "But Mattie! It's destiny! Can't you hear the bells?! We're meant to be together! It's our fate!"

"Oh boy, not again."

"We're going to get married and have kids and live in a pretty house!"

"Right…even if you're rolling in your grave that won't even happen."

Linear hung her head and mumbled, "I know…but it's nice to dream…"

The bell rang and everyone began to take their seats. Linear let out sigh as she watched Kai sit two rows in front of her, he was…perfect.

--

During gym, Linear and Matilda lagged behind, not because they couldn't run the mile…they just didn't want to.

Matilda stared at the silver spoon that Linear was holding, "Are you still trying to turn that into a hamster?"

Linear shook her head, "Nope! I'm gonna turn it into a bunch of flowers so I can give it to my one and only love!" Linear clasped her hands together and let out a dramatic sigh. Matilda slapped her forehead, she should just give up.

"Good…we don't need a giant bird snapping at us."

Linear let out a feeble laugh, "Yeah…no kidding. Julia made a sarcastic comment about giant birds and I thought she saw me accidentally conjure it up."

Matilda gaped at her friend, "Good thing she didn't! Who knows what could happen if someone found out! Even I'm still unsure about all this 'magic' business. Where did you say you came from again?"

Linear shrugged her shoulders, "Don't remember. But now! It's time to turn this spoon into a bunch of flowers!"

Mattie nodded her head as the pair stopped, the rest of the class were miles ahead of them.

"Ahem!" Linear held the spoon away from her, her bright gold eyes gleaming, "Silver spoon, silver spoon…um…with my magical powers I'll turn you into a bunch of flowers!"

"What?!" Yelled Matilda, "What kind of spell is that?"

"I don't know! It rhymed!"

The spoon began to glow; Linear dropped it when it became scaly. She raised her brows, flowers weren't supposed to be scaly. And they weren't supposed to be big either.

Matilda tapped her friend, "Lin…how big did you want your flowers…"

Linear swallowed a fearful lump, "Not that big…"

"Oh…okay…"

The light that surrounded the big object vanished, and what emerged were not flowers…but a scaly being with fangs.

"Holy…wows…that's not flowers…" Stated Linear as she stared into the face of the giant snake.

"RUN!" Yelled Mattie. The pair began to run as fast they could, the giant snake on their tails. They didn't want to run the mile, but it seemed they were going to now. Linear looked behind her and 'eeped'

"Faster Mattie! It's gaining on us!"

"Linear! What did you do?!" Screamed Matilda

"I don't know! I don't know! It was supposed to turn into flowers, not a snake!" Screamed Linear as the pair continued to run way from the giant snake that was slithering at an incredible speed towards them.

"Change it back! Change it back!" Yelled Matilda as she looked back only to run faster.

"Okay! Umm…" Linear took in her surroundings.

"Hurry!"

"Umm…roses are red, violets are blue…um…I asked for flowers and not you!"

"Oh my god!" Yelled Matilda in exasperation; the pair stopped when they heard a poof and felt petals shower upon them.

Linear smiled sheepishly, "Um…its raining flowers…"

Matilda raised her hand and smacked Linear upside the head, "If your rhymes weren't so lame maybe you'd get what you ask for!"

Linear collided her pointer fingers with one another, her head downcast, "Sorry…I'm still learning"

Matilda sighed, "That's fine…at least we didn't get eaten…again…"

"Heh…"

The pair had finally arrived back at the school where everyone was lounging about, talking.

Linear and Mattie took a seat on the provided bench and let out a relieved sigh. A black haired teen with golden eyes like Linear—but less intense stopped in front of them.

"Hey Linear! Hey Mattie! Uh…why are you two covered in flower petals?"

Linear grinned, "Hello Ray! I'll tell you what happened! While we were running at a turtle's pace, a giant snake popped out of nowhere and poofed into flower petals that began to rain on us!"

Mattie covered her face with her hands; sometimes she wondered why she was friends with her in the first place.

Ray stared at Linear for sometime, before a wide grin spread across his face, "You're too funny Lin, you're too funny. I'll see you two later!"

Mattie turned towards Linear and glared at her, "What were you doing?!"

"I was telling him what happened."

"Ugh! Never mind…never mind…"

Linear shrugged her shoulders and sat looking around the school grounds. Suddenly her blood ran cold and a cold tingling sensation ran through her body.

"It's him again, isn't it?"

"Yeah…he is…northwest from our position…" Mattie and Lin turned towards the specified direction and spotted their target.

Mattie shook her head, "How you do that is beyond me…you even got the directions right! If that isn't stalkerish, I don't know what is."

Linear squirmed, "I can't help it…it's not like I asked to have a Kai radar installed…it just so happened to be conveniently placed in me already! I told you! It's fate!"

"Right, does fate say that you'll end up having to kill your sister so you can be with your one true love?"

"Huh? No, why?"

Mattie pointed towards Kai, who was talking with Julia; well Julia talked while Kai answered, not very frequently.

Linear let out a groan, "Noooooo!! My dreams will be crushed by the wicked sister who has flown down to snatch my future lover and take him away into the dark abode where I'll never see him ever again! Nooooo!"

Linear clutched her face as she continued to groan. Matilda cradled her face in her hand, watching Linear over dramatize the situation.

"Linear…breathe."

Linear stopped and stared at Mattie, "But I am breathing, see?" She took a deep inhale before exhaling it out.

Matilda chuckled, "You're so weird Linear."

--

In chemistry, everyone had to pair up…and since chemistry involved chemicals, practically everyone backed away from Linear. Linear smiled sheepishly at the class.

"Okay! Who wants to be my partner?!"

She ignored how everyone flinched back in fear and grabbed hold of the nearest person, claiming them as their partner. The class was odd in numbers so there usually was a group of three. Tala glanced at Kai who let out a sigh. Tala turned to Linear, goose bumps already forming on his skin.

"Hey, Lin!"

"Yes Tala?"

"You can be with us…"

"Really?!"

Tala let out a sigh, "Really…"

"Yeah!" Linear pranced her way towards the pair and smiled brightly at them. Kai grunted; this girl was too happy for her own good. The trio began to get the necessary lab items.

"Are you staying to watch us play today Lin?" Asked Kai, as he grabbed a bunsen burner.

"Yup! Raul said you guys are going to get ice-cream right after!"

Kai smirked, "Just like you. But seriously, you don't need anymore sweets."

Linear pouted, her bright eyes pretending to water, "But I like sweets…"

Tala chuckled and patted Linear on the head, "Lin, you are one of a kind."

"That's because I am. And so are you. Everyone's one of a kind!"

Kai rolled his eyes, "Focus you two nimrods. Lin, don't touch anything…just read us the directions."

"Okay!"

Tala and Kai smirked at each other. Easy enough, nothing could go wrong if Linear was reading the directions and not touching anything hazardous.

Fire fighters sprayed the hose of water into the burning classroom. The students stood outside the school watching the blaze in silent awe.

Linear, Kai, and Tala stood together, watching as the flames slowly died down. Their face was covered with soot. The two males turned towards Linear, a blank stare on their face. Linear turned towards the pair, her face extremely blackened. She shrugged her shoulders biting her lip.

"Oops…"

"Oops?" Replied Tala. Linear nodded her head, "Oops…"

"That is not an 'oops' Lin, that is an 'oh no'." Responded Kai, staring at the wreck; he thought for sure there wouldn't be an accident…

"Linear! Kai! Tala!"

The three turned around to find their chemistry teacher, Mr. Bodwell, approaching them. He was a tall, skinny, bald man with an English accent. The accent was to be expected since they were in Europe.

"Good, you three are alright. So, do you want to tell me what happened?"

The boys were at a lost for words, they didn't even know what happened.

"I can tell you!" The males turned to Linear who had her arm raised up. Mr. Bodwell, pursed his lips but nodded his head, "Alright Linear, what happened."

"Well, I was reading the directions to Kai and Tala, after a while, I got bored and said some things like 'flames will dance in this room' and then all of a sudden the chemicals in the beaker started to work up and then it exploded causing the fire, which began to expand! And then we all ran out here…"

Linear panted, from the overexertion of her explanation. She had thrown her hands in the air and did all kinds of movements to emphasize her statement.

Mr. Bodwell, rubbed his temples, "Why do even I bother…you boys must have put something explosive in there."

"We didn't! We used what were told of us!" Exclaimed Kai. Tala nodded his head. Linear stared at the males, it was their lost if they didn't believe her story.

Mr. Bodwell shook his head, "I don't know anymore…well, class is dismissed for the rest of the day. Go on home."

The three stood stalk still. Linear danced on the balls of her feet, "Let's go get our faces cleaned up!"

The two males turned to Lin, and nodded their head, still unsure what had gone down.

"So, how you'd guys start the fire?" Raul blocked the ball as he asked his question.

"We don't know! We're still trying to figure it out!" Exclaimed Tala as he tried to slap the bouncing ball away from Raul, "But we weren't the only ones involved!"

"Yeah, Lin was with us too." Kai snatched the ball and dribbled it towards the other side of the court, he positioned himself to shoot. The ball had made it through the net with a 'swoosh'.

Raul laughed, "Lin was involved? No wonder. Now I'm not so shocked, I thought at first it was just you two."

Ray shook his head, "Lin seems to always be at the wrong place at the wrong time."

Raul nodded his head, "You have no idea, it's like bad luck follows her."

The four boys stopped and stared at Lin who was keeping score. She looked up from her paper and grinned wildly at them. The guys shook their heads, she was an oddball alright.

--

Mattie smiled at Linear, "If you keep smiling, your face is going to stay stuck like that."

Linear grinned, "Really? Maybe I should keep smiling to see if it really works!"

"Lin…" Mattie let out a sigh, "How did you set the chem. lab on fire?"

"I was thinking up some rhymes…and I kinda said them out loud…and it kinda caused an explosion…"

"Ah…I kinda figured that…at least school's out early."

"Yup!"

"But you did cause two near death situations in one day."

"Yup!"

"And the day's not over, so you'll probably cause another one…and another one…and another one…"

"Yup! Yup! Yup!"

Mattie straightened herself out, "Hey, the boys are done."

"Goodie! Now we get ice-cream!" Linear bounced in her seat at the thought of the cold sensation melting in her mouth.

"Hey, Linear! Who won?"

Linear looked down at the paper and called out, "Tala and Kai by two points!"

Raul shook his head, "Damn! I have to buy."

Kai smirked, "It's fair, I bought last time."

Raul grinned, "True, true…come on ladies!"

Linear jumped off her seat on the bench and skipped after the guys with Mattie following closely behind.

At the ice cream parlor the teens sat eating their ice-cream.

"Hey Lin?"

"Yes, brother dearest?"

"You think you can set the school on fire again?"

"Raul! Don't give your sister ideas! Don't listen to him Lin, it's dangerous." Ray glared at Raul who shrugged his shoulders, "It was only a suggestion."

"A bad one at that." Replied Matilda.

Linear smiled, "I can't do that Raul! I can only cause accidents, not intentions!"

The teens chuckled, that was so true.

TK: Well, how was it? Should I just disregard this fic or continue it? I can't decide...and if you think I should continue it...it'll be a while until I post the next chapter...I wanna at least finish either 'WIN' first...or 'LOBC' but it looks more like 'WIN' is close to being complete. So yeah...let me know!

Thanks!
