Ha ha! I write again! Trying something different this time. Don't know how
it will go. Please let me know what you think! I don't own Beyblade by the
way, just Tia Shenohi and her father and Rosie and Celia. Oh yeah and
Nanasi and Tiana and Sammie and Raein, but who really cares about them?

Hienmar High
Chapter 2
When Johnny eventually got home after zooming around town for awhile he noticed that the removalists that had been parked in the driveway that was linked to the next unit were gone.
It was about five so he decided to go in and see what his mother had prepared for them that night. He lived with his mother, had never known his dad and loathed his grandfather sometimes who came to visit and was somehow related to the McClouds, although Johnny himself wasn't related to the McClouds.
"Hey mum, what's happening?" he shouted walking in the door and up to his room.
"Hi Johnny, dinner's nearly ready," she replied in her thick Scottish accent from the kitchen. He followed her voice and kissed her on the cheek.
"I see the movers have finally finished," Johnny said setting the table.
"No one's moved in yet," his mother replied. "They said they wouldn't actually be moving in until late tonight, or early tomorrow morning."
"Ah phooey for them. We got a new chick at school today, weirdo girl. Goes for this grunge look with no black."
"Sounds interesting make sure you do your homework after dinner."
"Yeah."
Tia drove to the base and met her dad at the gate.
"What's the deal?" she demanded getting out of her car.
"They got a flight sim and want you to try it," her father replied handing her a card.
"Err.hello, you're the qualified one, I'm not," she replied crankily.
"Well, they said it would be better if a less experienced person tested it out," he replied.
"Then they got the wrong person haven't they!" she exclaimed angrily. "I'm just as experienced as you and besides, they'd be better off getting one of the motor pool to check it over wouldn't they?"
"Calm down girl, just do it. I've already had a go, it was fun."
"Fine, but then you buy me whatever I want for dinner. And then we head to the new house."
The next morning Johnny woke to the sound of a roaring engine, it was close by too. He got up and looked at the time; he was going to be late to school.
"Damn it!" he shouted and had a shower before changing and heading downstairs.
"Johnny! It's about time, I've got to get to work, I tried waking you several times but you wouldn't budge."
"Sorry mum, I'll lock up," he said hurriedly getting his things together.
"The neighbours are in too, but they've both left for wherever they're headed," she added walking out the door.
Johnny got onto his bike and sped to school; Ray, Kai, Tala, Bryan and Robert were waiting in the car park.
"What took you so long?" Kai said snidely.
"I slept in, so sue me," he replied coldly.
"Aha, sleep strikes again," Bryan drawled before being whacked over the head by a ball. "Stupid kids!"
"You coming for soccer practice this afternoon?" Ray asked Kai as they walked into the school gates.
"Yeah, didn't the coach say something about a new player? Don't see why we need one," Bryan added.
"Yeah, got to agree with you there," Kai said as they walked to swipe on. "We haven't lost the premiership in the last three years, just because Ian left town doesn't mean we're going to start now."
"But it's always useful to have another player, what if someone gets hurt?" Ray said pointing out the reason they were really trialling new players.
"Hello, earth to Ray, we're the one's that hurt people, remember?" Johnny replied reminding Ray of the time he broke another player's leg. Ray scowled and ignored their jeers as they headed back to the cars for a few minutes while everyone else arrived.
"I hear that you and Raein are hitting it rough," Enrique said to Kai joining them as they walked past the senior study.
"What's it to you Giancarlo?" Kai hissed in reply.
"Just rumour mill, thought I'd better get it straight from the horse's mouth," Enrique said holding his arms up in surrender. Kai was about to reply when the roar of an engine could be heard down the street.
"Hey, I think it's the new girl's car," Bryan said as they hurried to the car park. Sure enough, the green car was on its way down the street.
"That has one sweet sounding engine," said Nanasi appearing next to Tala.
"Hey, I haven't spoken to you for a while, what's doing?"
"I'm about to go and see if she'll take me for a spin," Nanasi said walking into the car park where Tia was parking her car.
"What?" Tala asked in confusion.
"That car apparently belongs to the new girl," Johnny said emphasizing apparently and blowing it off. "Personally I don't believe one word of it."
"Then eat your words Johnny," Ray replied nodding his head in the direction of the car park. Sitting in the driver's seat with the window down, talking to Nanasi was Tia. She had some fashion glasses on and her hair tied up, but she still wore the same camouflage style, this time in the form of a camouflage top with "Commando hot" on the front.
"I'd like to know what sort of car that is," Ray said and watched as Oliver climbed out of the passenger side.
"Hey Oliver!" Tala shouted as he entered the school, taking something from Tia as Nanasi got in.
"What?" Oliver asked a hurried expression on his face.
"What kind of car is that?" Ray asked as they approached, Tia sped out of the car park.
"It's an Australian model, Holden. When she comes back ask her yourself," Oliver said hurrying up the stairs and into the school.
"As if, that car is no where good as mine," Kai said defensively as she pulled back into the car park. The engine roared loudly as she revved it one more time before shutting it down.
"Let's get out of here," said Johnny turning around. They turned around and walked back into the school.
They went to the senior study and met up with the others.
"Hey, I heard the new chicks got a hot car," said Eddy from his seat by the fridge.
"Yeah! It's great!" said Oliver as he walked in the door.
"What sort is it?" asked Emily in interest.
"She told me, I can't remember exactly, I got an idea," Oliver said looking for someone. "Hey Chief, get over here."
"Hi Oliver what's up?" asked Kenny walking over.
"I need you to look up something for me, look up the latest model of Holden to come out," Oliver said as Kenny put his lap top on the small table in front of them. Kenny typed away and then waited for a moment.
"The latest is called a Holden Commodore, VY, the highest level you can get one is a SS Club sport," he said reading the stats on the hottest car in Australia. "Whoa, this car is loaded, it's one of the most powerful cars in the world, powered by a V8 engine and aerodynamically produced. They even have a race with them in it every year, called the V8 championships."
"Doesn't sound too bad," said Eddy as Tia walked in.
"Unlike your face," Johnny laughed. Tia shot him a nasty look.
"Hey cuz," Eddy said as she sat next to him. "They were just telling me about the car you got. I never thought it was that great."
"Got a new one, best selling model in Australia, could kick your car to the ground in one second," she replied glaring at Kai and Johnny.
"Any chance of a lift home then? My car is getting detailed as we speak," he said putting his hands behind his head.
"I suppose, I'm giving Oliver a lift anyway," she replied shrugging as the bell went.
"What have you got first?" Oliver asked looking at his timetable.
"Modern History."
"Ugh, how can you stand that subject?" Sammie said flicking her hair over her shoulder. She was now clinging to Michael who didn't mind unlike Ray.
"I could ask you how you can stand jumping up and down in tiny skirts while guys goggle your features that don't involve your face, but I already know the answer," Tia replied coldly standing up with Eddy.
The whole time Kai, Johnny, Tala, Bryan, Ray, Lee and Nanasi were staring at Tia and Eddy.
"I can't believe those two are cousins," Nanasi said recovering first and walking out with them.
"Believe it," said Kai in reply.
"Anyway, what was her car like?" asked Ray as they headed for Ancient history.
"Oh my god! That car is a machine and a half. She pumped it all the way down the highway and back, she's got a killer deck in there too. Sorry Kai, but her car is slightly in a higher league than yours," Nanasi said smiling smugly.
"Get lost junkie," he said pushing her into a door way. She glared at him before walking into her classroom.
"Hey Robert!" Bryan shouted as he was about to disappear into a classroom. The purple haired boy looked for his caller.
"Hello, how are you?" he asked in his thick British accent.
"Hey good, what have you got?"
"Modern History, why?" he replied eyeing him suspiciously.
"Oh, you're in the same class as Tia," Bryan said looking at the others.
"Yes, she's here already," Robert said looking into the class room. The others peeked in. Sure enough she was sitting in her seat, speaking with Mr Lawson, the Modern History teacher.
"Hey, Tia!" Bryan shouted waving. She looked at him, frowned and then ignored him, returning to her conversation with Mr Lawson.
"Ooh, rejected," said Robert with a smirk before going into the classroom.
They spent the first two periods in their classes, but most of them had a free after recess so they all sat in the senior study, except a few who had PE. Tia was sitting at a desk, working on something with her earphones in.
"What's she doing?" asked Ray as he sat next to Oliver who was working on his math homework.
"Dunno, we don't have any Art homework, she's probably just doodling," Oliver replied as the girl with Enrique squealed, throwing something away. It hit Tia, splattering all over her work.
"Uh oh," said Eddy standing up. Tia stood up, taking her earphones out. All over her art work was covered in red ink; it was splattered on her face, red streaks across her face. She turned to the blonde and Enrique.
"Dude, I'd get her out of here," Oliver said to Eddy who was standing with Ray and Tala. Tia was clenching her fists, grinding her teeth as she glared at the pair who was watching in a corner.
"Oh gee, I'm really sorry," said the blonde in a high sweet voice, sounding totally insincere.
"Tia." Eddy warned as she took a step forward.
"Ah let her explode," Johnny smirked from a corner where he was holding a brunette with blonde streaks. Tia shut her eyes and the released her fists, her mouth relaxing slightly.
"Yeah, the little blonde brat might learn the difference between naughty and nice, like for instance, messing with Tia Shenohi isn't a good thing," Eddy hissed in Enrique's direction. He got the point and shoved the girl roughly from the room.
Tia blinked and sat back down, trying to salvage her art piece.
"You okay Tia?" asked Eddy in concern.
"Fine, why do you ask?" she replied seeming totally unconcerned. She wiped the page clean, leaving red streaks on her page, but that didn't seem to bother her too much. "Hmm, looks better like this."
"Are you sure?" Eddy persisted. "I mean, you're not the type to sit down and leave something."
"Che.trust me, I won't be leaving it," she replied, a steely glint appearing her eyes as she glared at her cousin.
"Oh dear," Eddy said as she swept past him to go and wash her face.
"Psycho," Kai muttered from his corner with Raein clinging to his arm.
"That girl looked like she could kill someone," Raein said in a high and annoying voice.
"She probably could have," Eddy replied glaring at the cheerleader. "She's come close to killing me before."
"Serious?" Oliver asked in surprise.
"No, she just beat the crap out of me," Eddy replied shrugging.
"Oh."
The next class was Design and Technology, Tia and Nanasi were the only girls in the class of eleven. Their teacher Mr Castel was very happy to talk to Tia about her past projects in Australia and she spent most of the lesson drawing different versions of her projects for him.
After the class Nanasi and Tia left to go and get something to eat in town. Kai, Robert, Tala and Johnny were all in the car park talking; Raein was clinging to Kai as usual. They were also leaning on Tia's car.
"Hey guys, check it out," Kai said nodding towards Tia who didn't look very happy.
"Oh, hello Tia," said Raein who had been in her SLR class and was quite happy she had performed better than Sammie. Tia glared at her and then unlocked the car, ignoring the boys looking her up and down. Apart from the commando top she had on she was wearing a short box pleat skirt in khaki.
"Get off the car," she hissed as she shut the door. Johnny didn't move. He leant down in the window.
"This car a little to high class for a girl like you to be driving isn't it?" he said with a smirk.
"That bandanna's on a little too tightly isn't it Flame brain?" she replied and turned on the car. Music pumped out of the subwoofers and the engine roared to life, making Johnny jump back. Tia smirked and sped out of the car park.
"She is a little.Argh!" exclaimed Johnny, running his hand through his hair.
"Just because you got rejected," Tala said with a laugh.
"Shut it," Johnny said and left in a huff.
"Ooh, poor Johnny, she's not very nice," Raein said frowning as Johnny stormed back into the school.
"I think she's pretty cool," Robert replied turning to watch as the car drove past on the highway.
"Yeah, cold hearted," Kai sneered.
"She's nice, in her own way," Bryan replied.
When Tia returned, Nanasi and her went to their last class, SLR for Tia. Sammie was sitting cross legged in the change room, filing her nails and talking loudly. She frowned at Tia as she walked in.
"Oh look, it's G.I. Jane," she said snidely standing up. The other girls all looked nervously at Tia to see what she'd do.
"It's nice to see you too Sammie," Tia replied taking out her sports uniform. Sammie seemed slightly taken a back that she hadn't called her Barbie.
"And what abilities will you be showing off to us today?" Sammie sneered.
"The ability to kick your ass in anything you try," Tia said sweetly before walking into a cubicle to change. Sammie looked furious and slammed her nail file into her bag roughly before storming out. Tia came out and walked out, Raein tagging along behind her.
"Today we'll have a game of Volleyball," Mr Turada announced trying to set up a net.
"Give us a go sir," Ray said taking the rope and jumping up so the rope would catch the hook. He tied it and then helped with the other side.
"Anyone here played Volleyball? Beach Volleyball or anything?" Mr Turada asked marking the roll.
"Yeah," Tia sighed. Mr Turada looked up; he hadn't expected anyone to answer.
"Oh, well I thought you might," he replied smiling. "What sort?"
"Both," she replied shortly, looking at the net that flapped softly in the breeze.
"Well, you'll be happy to know that we don't play by all those complicated rules, we'll be playing three hit, out and the usual scoring rules," he said putting his folder on a bench.
"Whose captains' sir?" asked Tala stretching his arms.
"Err.you and Ray I think," he replied looking around.
The teams ended up being Tala, Kai, Raein, Johnny, Sammie, Tina, Susie, Miriam and Michael verses Ray, Lee, Tia, Riana, Gary, Reece, Bryan, Tyson and Max.
"Ok, Ray's team to serve," Mr Turada said standing next to the net.
"Here Tia, you do it," Ray said throwing her the ball. She sighed and went back to the service line before throwing it in the air and then hitting it with the palm of her hand. It shot over the net straight at Sammie. She screamed and ducked, it hit the ground.
"Nice one!" laughed Ray as the other team groaned.
"Get your act together Blondie," sneered Johnny as he picked up the ball and tossed it back to Ray. Tia served again, straight back at Sammie, this time she tried to hit it, only to have it bounce up and hit her in the face.
"Ow!" she shouted. "I broke a nail and almost broke my nose." Ray and Tala were doing their best not to laugh too loud.
"Come on Sammie, get into it," said Mr Turada. Johnny sneered and tossed the ball back to Ray again.
"Better give them a chance Tia," Ray said giving it back to her.
"Fine." She served it again, with a lot more force straight at Raein. She squealed but managed to hit it up so that someone else could lob it over.
"It's about time!" shouted Lee as Kai stepped forward to knock it over the net. It flew over the front line which was Ray, Lee, Gary, Tyson and Max. Tia stepped forward and punched it back over from the front line.
"Nice hit!" exclaimed Mr Turada. It was heading straight for Sammie.
"Nice aiming," said Ray with a laugh, but Johnny jumped in front of her and hit at Riana. Riana knocked it up so Tia could hit it back. She shot it straight at Sammie yet again, by Johnny again knocked it back over. Ray hit it up and Lee spiked it down at Johnny's feet.
"Damn!" shouted Johnny diving, but hitting it into the net.
"This is just too easy," said Lee high fiving Ray. Ray tossed the ball back to Tia, who took aim again, she served it straight at Miriam who squealed and ducked, but she was on the back line.
"Out!" announced Mr Turada. Kai and Tala cheered while Johnny sneered at Tia.
"Not so good now are you?" he said smirking. She glared at him coldly before changing places and moving across to where Riana had been.
"You and me huh Tia?" Riana said. Tia nodded but didn't look at her. Tala served, it aimed straight at Riana. She knocked it into the air for Tia who lunged forward and knocked it in front of Gary. Gary barely jumped but it still headed for the ground in front of Michael. He lunged forward and was able to knock it up for Kai who lobbed it over.
"Ray!" shouted Lee, but Ray was on the back foot. He fell down, and they watched as the ball headed for the ground. At the last minute Tia dove across Riana, hit the ball up for Riana and rolled on the cement floor. Riana hit it back over the net as Tia stood up.
"You okay Ray?" she asked brushing herself down.
"I was about to ask you the same thing," he replied, his face was shocked to see her okay. Sammie missed the ball and it hit the ground. Her team groaned.
Nanasi waited for Tia outside the canteen where they'd been playing. She had caught the last ten minutes of their lesson. Mr Turada had decided they should have a game of singles. Tia had played against Johnny, and both had been diving around on the concrete.
Mr Turada had finally decided that it was getting to dangerous when Johnny made it hit her in the face and had said they should play pairs as it would be a lot safer. Naturally he was wrong.
Riana and Tia had played against Johnny and Kai; both boys had started a verbal fight as well as a physical one when Tia and Riana kept out playing them. Tia had ended up being knocked to the ground when the ball was pegged at her legs as she tried to jump.
"Hey Tia," Nanasi said as she walked out with Riana. Tia was definitely not in a good mood.
"Whatever," she said and they walked to her car where Oliver and Eddy were waiting.
"Bye Tia, don't worry we'll get them next time," Riana said leaving with her boyfriend.
"Hey Tia!" a voice shouted from behind her. It was Ray; he had separated from Kai and Johnny who was walking with Bryan, Michael, Tala and Raein.
"What do you want?" she asked coldly. He hadn't exactly jumped up to help her, although he did yell at Johnny several times to stop.
"Just wanted to see if you were alright," he replied, slowing down.
"I'm fine, and you can tell your buddies back there that they'd better watch themselves, they may get a nasty surprise." And with that she unlocked the car and waited for Eddy and Oliver to finish talking with her Linkin Park CD turned up all the way.
"That girl has a real attitude problem," said Kai, glaring at her while she ignored him.
"She's not that bad," Bryan said who actually thought she was quite nice, when she wasn't being cold or nasty.
"Forget about her," Ray said returning to the group. "Let's think about training this afternoon, we're trialling the new player."
"Yeah, well I don't care. We don't need any new players," Johnny sneered, still glaring at Tia as she started the car. She sped out of the car park.
"I really like her car," said Raein as it sped down the road.
"Did I just hear right? Raein just said she liked a car?" a pink haired girl said appearing next to Ray.
"Mariah! How come you're here?" he asked in surprise.
"School was let out early today, whose car was that?" she asked referring to Tia's Holden.
"New girl, little bitch," Johnny hissed.
"Must be cool, if you don't like her," Mariah replied matter of factly. Johnny glared at her and then got onto his bike.
"I'll catch you guys at training," he said coldly putting down his visor and starting the engine. He sped out the car park.
"Yeah, come on," Kai said to Ray and they got into his Viper and sped out after Johnny.
Johnny pulled up in his driveway. His mother was out the front talking to a man in a military uniform.
"Hello Johnny, what took you so long?" she asked as he got off his bike.
"I stopped off at Oliver's café to have a cappuccino," Johnny replied taking his bag out of the back.
"This is Simon, he's just moved in next door," she said introducing the man. He shook Johnny's hand.
"Nice to meet you kid, nice bike too," he said nodding towards Johnny's Honda.
"Thanks," Johnny said liking him immediately. There was a roar down the road. "Oh great," he said recognising the roar.
"What's wrong?" his mother asked frowning.
"The new chick at school's a real pain and that noise is her car," Johnny explained grimacing as he slung his bag over his shoulder. Simon raised an eyebrow. The green machine, as the kids at school had come to name the car roared around the corner and slowed down. "What the hell is she doing here?"
"Ah.here she comes now," he said to Johnny's mother. Johnny froze as she pulled into the driveway. She turned off the music and then revved the engine once more before turning the car off. She frowned as she got out of the car.
"Hi Tia, have a nice day at school?" Simon asked his teenage daughter as she picked up her bag and took off her shades.
"Not particuly," she replied locking the car. She walked past Johnny.
"Hang on," Simon said as she was about to walk inside. She sighed and stopped, walked back down the path and stopped in front of Johnny's mother.
"How do you do? My name is Tia, it's a pleasure to meet you Mrs McGregor," she said bowing and waited for a response.
"It's nice to meet you too Tia, please ignore my son's rude quandary and feel free to come and visit whenever you please," Mrs McGregor replied shaking Tia's hand. Tia looked at Johnny with a nasty glare and then continued inside.
"You were saying Johnny?" asked his mother. He stormed inside and went to his room.
"Ah.children," said Mrs McGregor.
"I'll talk to you another time Rosie," Simon said and hurried inside.

Please review me and let me know whether I should keep going. I'm thinking this is going to definitely go into a higher rating, so listen up okay.

"Ugh, how can you stand that subject?" Sammie said flicking her hair over her shoulder. She was now clinging to Michael who didn't mind unlike Ray.
"I could ask you how you can stand jumping up and down in tiny skirts while guys goggle your features that don't involve your face, but I already know the answer," Tia replied coldly standing up with Eddy.

"Hey, Tia!" Bryan shouted waving. She looked at him, frowned and then ignored him, returning to her conversation with Mr Lawson.
"Ooh, rejected," said Robert with a smirk before going into the classroom.
They spent the first two periods in their classes, but most of them had a free after recess so they all sat in the senior study, except a few who had PE. Tia was sitting at a desk, working on something with her earphones in.
"What's she doing?" asked Ray as he sat next to Oliver who was working on his math homework.
"Dunno, we don't have any Art homework, she's probably just doodling," Oliver replied as the girl with Enrique squealed, throwing something away. It hit Tia, splattering all over her work.
"Uh oh," said Eddy standing up. Tia stood up, taking her earphones out. All over her art work was covered in red ink; it was splattered on her face, red streaks across her face. She turned to the blonde and Enrique.
"Dude, I'd get her out of here," Oliver said to Eddy who was standing with Ray and Tala. Tia was clenching her fists, grinding her teeth as she glared at the pair who was watching in a corner.
"Oh gee, I'm really sorry," said the blonde in a high sweet voice, sounding totally insincere.
"Tia." Eddy warned as she took a step forward.
"Ah let her explode," Johnny smirked from a corner where he was holding a brunette with blonde streaks. Tia shut her eyes and the released her fists, her mouth relaxing slightly.
"Yeah, the little blonde brat might learn the difference between naughty and nice, like for instance, messing with Tia Shenohi isn't a good thing," Eddy hissed in Enrique's direction. He got the point and shoved the girl roughly from the room.
Tia blinked and sat back down, trying to salvage her art piece.
"You okay Tia?" asked Eddy in concern.
"Fine, why do you ask?" she replied seeming totally unconcerned. She wiped the page clean, leaving red streaks on her page, but that didn't seem to bother her too much. "Hmm, looks better like this."
"Are you sure?" Eddy persisted. "I mean, you're not the type to sit down and leave something."
"Che.trust me, I won't be leaving it," she replied, a steely glint appearing her eyes as she glared at her cousin.
"Oh dear," Eddy said as she swept past him to go and wash her face.
"Psycho," Kai muttered from his corner with Raein clinging to his arm.
"That girl looked like she could kill someone," Raein said in a high and annoying voice.
"She probably could have," Eddy replied glaring at the cheerleader. "She's come close to killing me before."
"Serious?" Oliver asked in surprise.
"No, she just beat the crap out of me," Eddy replied shrugging.
"Oh."
The next class was Design and Technology, Tia and Nanasi were the only girls in the class of eleven. Their teacher Mr Castel was very happy to talk to Tia about her past projects in Australia and she spent most of the lesson drawing different versions of her projects for him.
After the class Nanasi and Tia left to go and get something to eat in town. Kai, Robert, Tala and Johnny were all in the car park talking; Raein was clinging to Kai as usual. They were also leaning on Tia's car.
"Hey guys, check it out," Kai said nodding towards Tia who didn't look very happy.
"Oh, hello Tia," said Raein who had been in her SLR class and was quite happy she had performed better than Sammie. Tia glared at her and then unlocked the car, ignoring the boys looking her up and down. Apart from the commando top she had on she was wearing a short box pleat skirt in khaki.
"Get off the car," she hissed as she shut the door. Johnny didn't move. He leant down in the window.
"This car a little to high class for a girl like you to be driving isn't it?" he said with a smirk.
"That bandanna's on a little too tightly isn't it Flame brain?" she replied and turned on the car. Music pumped out of the subwoofers and the engine roared to life, making Johnny jump back. Tia smirked and sped out of the car park.
"She is a little.Argh!" exclaimed Johnny, running his hand through his hair.
"Just because you got rejected," Tala said with a laugh.
"Shut it," Johnny said and left in a huff.
"Ooh, poor Johnny, she's not very nice," Raein said frowning as Johnny stormed back into the school.
"I think she's pretty cool," Robert replied turning to watch as the car drove past on the highway.
"Yeah, cold hearted," Kai sneered.
"She's nice, in her own way," Bryan replied.
When Tia returned, Nanasi and her went to their last class, SLR for Tia. Sammie was sitting cross legged in the change room, filing her nails and talking loudly. She frowned at Tia as she walked in.
"Oh look, it's G.I. Jane," she said snidely standing up. The other girls all looked nervously at Tia to see what she'd do.
"It's nice to see you too Sammie," Tia replied taking out her sports uniform. Sammie seemed slightly taken a back that she hadn't called her Barbie.
"And what abilities will you be showing off to us today?" Sammie sneered.
"The ability to kick your ass in anything you try," Tia said sweetly before walking into a cubicle to change. Sammie looked furious and slammed her nail file into her bag roughly before storming out. Tia came out and walked out, Raein tagging along behind her.
"Today we'll have a game of Volleyball," Mr Turada announced trying to set up a net.
"Give us a go sir," Ray said taking the rope and jumping up so the rope would catch the hook. He tied it and then helped with the other side.
"Anyone here played Volleyball? Beach Volleyball or anything?" Mr Turada asked marking the roll.
"Yeah," Tia sighed. Mr Turada looked up; he hadn't expected anyone to answer.
"Oh, well I thought you might," he replied smiling. "What sort?"
"Both," she replied shortly, looking at the net that flapped softly in the breeze.
"Well, you'll be happy to know that we don't play by all those complicated rules, we'll be playing three hit, out and the usual scoring rules," he said putting his folder on a bench.
"Whose captains' sir?" asked Tala stretching his arms.
"Err.you and Ray I think," he replied looking around.
The teams ended up being Tala, Kai, Raein, Johnny, Sammie, Tina, Susie, Miriam and Michael verses Ray, Lee, Tia, Riana, Gary, Reece, Bryan, Tyson and Max.
"Ok, Ray's team to serve," Mr Turada said standing next to the net.
"Here Tia, you do it," Ray said throwing her the ball. She sighed and went back to the service line before throwing it in the air and then hitting it with the palm of her hand. It shot over the net straight at Sammie. She screamed and ducked, it hit the ground.
"Nice one!" laughed Ray as the other team groaned.
"Get your act together Blondie," sneered Johnny as he picked up the ball and tossed it back to Ray. Tia served again, straight back at Sammie, this time she tried to hit it, only to have it bounce up and hit her in the face.
"Ow!" she shouted. "I broke a nail and almost broke my nose." Ray and Tala were doing their best not to laugh too loud.
"Come on Sammie, get into it," said Mr Turada. Johnny sneered and tossed the ball back to Ray again.
"Better give them a chance Tia," Ray said giving it back to her.
"Fine." She served it again, with a lot more force straight at Raein. She squealed but managed to hit it up so that someone else could lob it over.
"It's about time!" shouted Lee as Kai stepped forward to knock it over the net. It flew over the front line which was Ray, Lee, Gary, Tyson and Max. Tia stepped forward and punched it back over from the front line.
"Nice hit!" exclaimed Mr Turada. It was heading straight for Sammie.
"Nice aiming," said Ray with a laugh, but Johnny jumped in front of her and hit at Riana. Riana knocked it up so Tia could hit it back. She shot it straight at Sammie yet again, by Johnny again knocked it back over. Ray hit it up and Lee spiked it down at Johnny's feet.
"Damn!" shouted Johnny diving, but hitting it into the net.
"This is just too easy," said Lee high fiving Ray. Ray tossed the ball back to Tia, who took aim again, she served it straight at Miriam who squealed and ducked, but she was on the back line.
"Out!" announced Mr Turada. Kai and Tala cheered while Johnny sneered at Tia.
"Not so good now are you?" he said smirking. She glared at him coldly before changing places and moving across to where Riana had been.
"You and me huh Tia?" Riana said. Tia nodded but didn't look at her. Tala served, it aimed straight at Riana. She knocked it into the air for Tia who lunged forward and knocked it in front of Gary. Gary barely jumped but it still headed for the ground in front of Michael. He lunged forward and was able to knock it up for Kai who lobbed it over.
"Ray!" shouted Lee, but Ray was on the back foot. He fell down, and they watched as the ball headed for the ground. At the last minute Tia dove across Riana, hit the ball up for Riana and rolled on the cement floor. Riana hit it back over the net as Tia stood up.
"You okay Ray?" she asked brushing herself down.
"I was about to ask you the same thing," he replied, his face was shocked to see her okay. Sammie missed the ball and it hit the ground. Her team groaned.
Nanasi waited for Tia outside the canteen where they'd been playing. She had caught the last ten minutes of their lesson. Mr Turada had decided they should have a game of singles. Tia had played against Johnny, and both had been diving around on the concrete.
Mr Turada had finally decided that it was getting to dangerous when Johnny made it hit her in the face and had said they should play pairs as it would be a lot safer. Naturally he was wrong.
Riana and Tia had played against Johnny and Kai; both boys had started a verbal fight as well as a physical one when Tia and Riana kept out playing them. Tia had ended up being knocked to the ground when the ball was pegged at her legs as she tried to jump.
"Hey Tia," Nanasi said as she walked out with Riana. Tia was definitely not in a good mood.
"Whatever," she said and they walked to her car where Oliver and Eddy were waiting.
"Bye Tia, don't worry we'll get them next time," Riana said leaving with her boyfriend.
"Hey Tia!" a voice shouted from behind her. It was Ray; he had separated from Kai and Johnny who was walking with Bryan, Michael, Tala and Raein.
"What do you want?" she asked coldly. He hadn't exactly jumped up to help her, although he did yell at Johnny several times to stop.
"Just wanted to see if you were alright," he replied, slowing down.
"I'm fine, and you can tell your buddies back there that they'd better watch themselves, they may get a nasty surprise." And with that she unlocked the car and waited for Eddy and Oliver to finish talking with her Linkin Park CD turned up all the way.
"That girl has a real attitude problem," said Kai, glaring at her while she ignored him.
"She's not that bad," Bryan said who actually thought she was quite nice, when she wasn't being cold or nasty.
"Forget about her," Ray said returning to the group. "Let's think about training this afternoon, we're trialling the new player."
"Yeah, well I don't care. We don't need any new players," Johnny sneered, still glaring at Tia as she started the car. She sped out of the car park.
"I really like her car," said Raein as it sped down the road.
"Did I just hear right? Raein just said she liked a car?" a pink haired girl said appearing next to Ray.
"Mariah! How come you're here?" he asked in surprise.
"School was let out early today, whose car was that?" she asked referring to Tia's Holden.
"New girl, little bitch," Johnny hissed.
"Must be cool, if you don't like her," Mariah replied matter of factly. Johnny glared at her and then got onto his bike.
"I'll catch you guys at training," he said coldly putting down his visor and starting the engine. He sped out the car park.
"Yeah, come on," Kai said to Ray and they got into his Viper and sped out after Johnny.
Johnny pulled up in his driveway. His mother was out the front talking to a man in a military uniform.
"Hello Johnny, what took you so long?" she asked as he got off his bike.
"I stopped off at Oliver's café to have a cappuccino," Johnny replied taking his bag out of the back.
"This is Simon, he's just moved in next door," she said introducing the man. He shook Johnny's hand.
"Nice to meet you kid, nice bike too," he said nodding towards Johnny's Honda.
"Thanks," Johnny said liking him immediately. There was a roar down the road. "Oh great," he said recognising the roar.
"What's wrong?" his mother asked frowning.
"The new chick at school's a real pain and that noise is her car," Johnny explained grimacing as he slung his bag over his shoulder. Simon raised an eyebrow. The green machine, as the kids at school had come to name the car roared around the corner and slowed down. "What the hell is she doing here?"
"Ah.here she comes now," he said to Johnny's mother. Johnny froze as she pulled into the driveway. She turned off the music and then revved the engine once more before turning the car off. She frowned as she got out of the car.
"Hi Tia, have a nice day at school?" Simon asked his teenage daughter as she picked up her bag and took off her shades.
"Not particuly," she replied locking the car. She walked past Johnny.
"Hang on," Simon said as she was about to walk inside. She sighed and stopped, walked back down the path and stopped in front of Johnny's mother.
"How do you do? My name is Tia, it's a pleasure to meet you Mrs McGregor," she said bowing and waited for a response.
"It's nice to meet you too Tia, please ignore my son's rude quandary and feel free to come and visit whenever you please," Mrs McGregor replied shaking Tia's hand. Tia looked at Johnny with a nasty glare and then continued inside.
"You were saying Johnny?" asked his mother. He stormed inside and went to his room.
"Ah.children," said Mrs McGregor.
"I'll talk to you another time Rosie," Simon said and hurried inside.
