A/N: Ok, sorry I haven't been doing anything with any of my stories. The thrice-blasted laptop I was using decided to go into a melt-down again. Meaning, I lost all of my work… again… All stories I had started. All chapters that were ready to be uploaded to the site. Everything gone. So, I was forced to start all over again. Though, I only just started writing again. Losing all your work is a real downer. Not to mention that I started a Correspondence Course on Business Management at the beginning of the year. Plus, I also needed to go help my oldest, adoptive brother move.

That's another thing. In between the time we were getting ready to go to my grandfather's funeral and my 21st b-day, my parents dropped a hell of a bombshell on me. Turns out that even tough I am relative to them, I'm still adopted. Mom's actually my great aunt, making her sister my maternal grandmother and their parents my great grandparents. So yea, I won't go into full detail about it, but the fact remains that I am adopted. Makes things confusing when I have both of my mothers in the same room or one is in the same room as me while the other is on the phone with me. *Shrugs*

Anyway, onward with the story. Hope you enjoy it.

Chapter 1 ~ First Day of School and New Friends

Two small kids, the older one 7 and the younger 3, were on their way to school. It was the younger one's first day of school and his sister had the responsibility of taken him there. Her long red hair flying out behind her as she rode her bike a few meters ahead of her little brother, who was trying to kept up to her as best as he could. He didn't complain though. He was too excited about finally starting school and making new friends and seeing old ones.

The ride was a good 5 minutes from their house, but that didn't matter to them. They were just glad when they finally reach the school's gates. The school was small. Two classrooms with mixed grades. The younger years being from Nursery to grade 4. The older years grade 6 to 9. Grade 5's spent their mornings with the younger years and the afternoons with the older years.

"Ah Terra, I see you managed to get your little brother here safely." The younger years' teacher said as she came over to where Terra and her brother had put their bikes with the others.

"Yes, Ms. McKenize. He had a little trouble keeping up with me though." She responded with a big, toothy smile.

"Ok, Jay, let me take your backpack so you can go play. When you here the bell, it'll be time to go inside for your first class." Ms. McKenize said as another new kid showed up with his dad behind Terra and Jay. They stepped off to the side so the adults could talk.

"You must be the new Airport Manager, Justin Doucette, correct?" Ms. McKenize asked politely.

"Yes, I am and this is my son Terry." Justin replied just as politely.

"Terra, why don't you show Jay and Terry around the schoolyard while I take their backpacks inside." Ms. McKenize said as she took Terry's backpack from him and his dad left to go back to work.

"MS. MCKENIZE! THE TRANSPORTATION STUDENTS ARE HERE!" One of the older students shouted from across the sports field.

"OK, THANK-YOU RYAN!" She shouted back as she promptly changed course to meet said transportation students. Terra, having spotted another new student among them, followed her and waited until she had retrieve all of the backpacks and life-jackets of the younger years with the help of one of the older ones. Terry and Jay followed behind her, curious as well.

After Ms. McKenize was away from them, Terra went up to the new girl that was standing nervously in the middle of the field, not knowing what to do. She gave her a big smile and got a shy one in return.

"Hi, I'm Terra. This is my little brother, Jay and this is Terry. He's new too. What's your name?" She said quickly and excitedly, pointing at each of the boys as she said their names.

"…Kayla…" Came the quiet response.

"Come on, I was just about to show these two around the school. You can join us." Terra said with another smile as she grabbed Kayla's hand, who nodded her head nervously in reply. Terra started explaining things as she walked, followed closely by Jay and Terry.

"That white building you pasted when you entered the schoolyard, Kayla, was the Old School. It's used as a storage shed for sports equipment now. This field we're in is the sports field. This is where a majority of the larger games are played during recess. The large, tannish building up ahead is the New School where we'll be taking our classes. Gym class is either held out here in the field or over at the Community Center, depending on the weather and/or what our teachers have planned for us that day. The playground is on the other side of the school. So is the sliding hill that's only use during the winter. You're not allowed passed the Water treatment plant if the hill isn't open."

After she'd shown them where everything was, they went over to the swings and talked to each other until the bell rung to go inside. They'd learned how old they all were, what their favourite foods, colour(s), activities, games and other things were and where they were all originally from. One thing they all had in common was Beyblade. They all loved the game and each had their own customized Beys.

A fast and strong friendship was form between the four of them in those remaining 35 minutes of recess that would last as they grew up together. Most of the time, you could always find them hanging out around the school during school hours and hanging around their favourite spots after school and during the week-ends. They even managed to get their parents to agree to spend the holidays together (Expect for Christmases on a few occasions when it was decided that each family needed to go spend time with their other relatives that live in other parts of the country.) Point is, you could never separate any of them unless one of them was sick and even then, they almost always got sick at the same time.

They eventually started participating in local tournaments and a few out of town ones together as they got better and better at it. They were even unofficially declared as Stevenson Island's official Beyblade team as they'd always act like one. Practicing together, giving each other advice and tips they'd individually found out worked or helped improve technique.

It stayed like this for many years, Terra, Jay, Terry and Kayla spending most of their time Blading…

Even when something bad happened…

Something upsetting to not just one of them, but all…


Next Chapter: The first of several time-skips. We find Terra and co. 6 years down the road when tragedy strikes. What is it? Who does it affect the most? How will they cope with the outcome of it? Find out in the next chapter: Chapter 2 ~ Tragedy


End Notes: Sweet and to the point. I think most of the chapters are going to be like this to make it a faster read. I've read those stories were one chapter takes "HOURS" to get through. I hate it. It makes the story long, tiresome to get through and boring after awhile.

As to how many chapters this is going to be, I haven't really decided that yet. It's going to be at least 10 or 11 though… If I'm likely enough to make it the long, that is. I find that I'm better at short novels than long ones.

Anyway, that's enough rambling for now. Hopefully I can keep the chapters flowing and update quickly. Please review, but be nice about it. Flames are more hurtful than helpful to authors. Dea-Slán!
