~On Our Own~

+Prologue+

I couldn't believe it. We, the Bladebreakerz team actually won the World Beyblade Championships! What's more is that me, Tyson Granger, Age 14 from Tokyo Japan is now actually the World Champion Beyblader!!! It was actually surprising that we got that far after only knowing each other for about two months since April.

What, me starting out as a rookie and amateur, Kenny a.k.a. Chief being the expert on the sport of Beyblading, Kai the supposedly the loner of the team not to mention team captain, Max who was the new kid in town but an expert on defense, then finally there was Ray who was the calm member who almost betrayed us and left to go back to his old team the White Tigers. We were a strange bunch.

Me always eating but actually the chain that kept the team together, Kenny well the nerd but helped us upgrade our beyblades despite the fact Kai never let him touch his[I failed to say that we are all surprised that even a smart kid like him could have an I.Q. of 130], Kai the team captain who keeps us in shape for someone as coldhearted as he is, Max the very hyperactive bubbly member, and Ray who can charm any girl he likes[to put it simply ANY girl who sets eyes on him, Max, Kenny, and I are a bit jealous of him and Kai] but just as good in flirting as he is with Beyblading.

We have grown quite close since we first met, even Kai now and then gives us a smile which is very rare. The only smiles he ever gives us are victorious ones or you-think-you-can-beat-me-smirks. It's almost scary in a nice way when he becomes friendly.

Unfortunately, this summer we thought we might spend two months together[without the training much to Kai's disappointment and besides the fact that Kenny is going to Computer Camp]and have some fun. However, my dad seemed to have pulled up a father/son trip together with me and his colleague in Australia so we're gonna spend the next two probably horrible months down under and hopping with kangaroos.

Max's mom called him up and invited him to come to America for the summer just the two of them to spend some quality times together and get closer since his parents were divorced. How can Max say no to that? His mom was always first on his list.

As for Ray, he had thought that perhaps this summer he might try to find The One. With his attractive looks (A/N: not yaoi or shonen-ai) I doubt he will have any problems at all. The White Tigers invited him back to his home village to hang out like they did before. Of course he accepted.

Kai couldn't care anymore or any less although for some strange reason we believe that he'll probably miss us as much as we'll miss him. It was weird because he decided that he was going to spend the entire summer in Moscow, Russia. In other words, he's practically spending two months of winter there in our opinion.

So from that day on, our summer didn't go exactly as planned...
