Lync-finally! So who's in? tell me!

Alice- maybe you should look at the reviews? She said she'd use the first five in her next chapter after all

Runo-I know who's in

Julie- same here

Lync- who!

Me- you'll have to wait for the next chapter, plain and simple.

Lync- I don't wanna!

Me- do you want to read it?

Lync-yea

Me- can you read English?

Lync- there's more than Japanese and Russian?

Anna- (face palm) where's your idiot punishment stick?

Me- ignorance doesn't count… I think…

Runo- you think?

Julie- how can you not know?

Me- shut up!

Everyone else- (laughing.)

Me-meanies! (sticks out tongue and runs off to magical evil computer)

Lync- after her!

Me- crud

Runo walked home. Things have been hectic for a while. She began to go over them in her head.

Dan left. He was forced to move to Bay View, in America with Julie. They broke up.

Runo remembers it perfectly.

Flash back

Dan and Runo were meeting in the park today, of course he would be late… as usual. Runo was in her favorite outfit, a light yellow tank top with her white summer coat Alice gave her for Christmas, that fell just under her knees. She had on a pair of pale pink shorts that were almost Capri pants if they were an inch longer under her white skirt. Her hair was up in her usual pigtails falling down to her waist since they grew out since she was 15, and liked her old style better than it down.

Runo looked at her pale pink Haos brawler watch. He was five minutes late!

Runo sighed and sat on the edge of the fountain, why was she always the one on time?

Dan ran up to her but he looked sad and dejected. Something was very, very wrong with her boyfriend, and Runo didn't like it.

"Runo, I'm sorry, my parents are making us move to Bayville, in America. I'm so sorry."

Runo knew what was coming next. It was inevitable.

"I thin-" He was cut off by Runo slapping his cheek, hard.

"Fine, we're through Daniel Kuso!"

Runo stormed off to her house. Her parents were out on a trip, and weren't going to be home for a month. Runo cried into her pillow. It was times like this when she wished Tiggerra was still with her, but she went back to New Vestroia… Runo's mind could help but picture Dan with American female brawlers throwing themselves at him. It happened in her own shop for crying out loud. Runo wept harder and harder.

End of flashback

Runo sighed. Her parents had come back early, by a week. Dan had left by then, and her father used the harshest of words if Dan Kuso was mentioned in his store, in any way.

I have become stronger because of that… Runo repeated in her head for months. Her grades picked up form straight Bs to A+ only. Runo poured her heart into her writing and took up karate for her frustration. She has been decided as a Valid Victorian with all her extra credits and AP classes she took, but she still had two years left. She hadn't taken anything average since. Runo took up some art drawing and sculpting so well they looked like they'd jump out at you. Her heart still wished for him to return, for that day never to have happened. Her mind was fine with it, it made her a better person than Dan Kuso would ever be. She was tutoring kids and helping find orphans a family that clicked with them. She often took care of strays and volunteered at the local animal shelters. She turned people around. Though her heart was constantly bleeding, it gushed when Bakugan were mentioned, and broke once more when Dan was mentioned. She felt awful that she hadn't spoken to her old friends, so she often called Alice to keep up with her elder sister like friend.

Runo talks to Julie often who tells her how Dan is doing, even though Runo wouldn't admit it, she was secretly happy Dan hadn't started dating since she broke up with him. At least that's what she tells herself. Julie was more than over-joyed to find out what Runo was doing. Dan often asked her how she was, and Runo was doing well, she was working on becoming a veterinarian at the moment. She told Dan how well Runo was doing for herself.

Julie on the other hand was forced to break up with Billy when she moved. Julie took up cheer and AP history to cope with her pain. She took up her job as a waitress. She often helped out little kids and gave pointers to Jake. She wished she still had Gorem, but he was safer in New Vestroia. Julie often found her mind wandering to Billy. How would he like this? Would he like the new her? Did he think of her too? Was her hair to his liking? How would he react to this and that?

Julie often spoke to her other friends in cheer, and spoke to Alice here and there when she had time. She missed her terribly, but knew everything made her that much stronger. She missed Billy a lot, and openly admitted it to herself. She was often asked out, but always turned them down. Her heart was back in Australia, with her beloved Billy. Everyone could see that if they really knew her. She had to help Dan with English before he moved. She was a good teacher, and was focusing on being a history teacher when she was an adult. She her ADHD was very mild now, and she was a lot better when it came to common sense.

They never expected to be taken one day. They never expected the same needles that were once in Alice and Anna to go into their bodies. Neither ever thought it would happen. Neither ever thought they would react to it either. Neither thought their powers would cause them to be noticed.

A girl named Anna spoke to them, and asked them to join her group. She explained that they had a gene in their bodies that her people had also, that gave them abilities. Anna said she was given each, but she was raised often in darkness. She escaped to a safe place in the dark where there are others like them. She us part of the few that can take the light, apparently if you were not their top priority then you weren't worth the effort. All of them have some handicap; Anna is deaf (became, not born) but can feel vibrations and see in every vision and has the eyes of an eagle, a boy, Dick was deaf, Axel has reduced co-ordination (no hand-eye co-ordination, Sammy has ADD, Bruno has dyslexia(reading disability), George has a language impairment (can't speak properly or put things in context, John is color blind, (completely, he became) Jacob was born with Dyscalculia (math learning disability).

She offered them a place when the others like them were completely gathered. She told them their powers would be massive, and grow as their pain dulled. She told them a girl called Mylene was Aquos or water empowered, Mira was another Subterra or earth powers like Julie as an aid, Alice as darkness's mistress, Chan as Pyrus or fire born, but Ventus was missing. Until one was found, they could live normally. They agreed. The dark deal had been made by 12 yr old.
