Disclaimer: I barely have the talent for fanfiction. How the bloody hell do you expect me to own them? Though I admit I wouldn't object in the least to owning Kevin.

Chapter Four: So That's What They do in Their Spare Time

While the White Tigers were peicing everything together, Kevin, Jin, and Max were in the middle of an argument over something that really has nothing to with anything that anyone else would find important mere days before the Asian BeyBlade Tournament. It should be noted that, when together, Kevin and Jin tackle subjects tottally unrelated to their current situation, so they don't a) get to serious, or, b) panic. Oddly enough, that second part is related, partially to what was causing the trouble in paradise- the argument between the Moon Twins, and Max.
"Look, I'm not insulting you." Max said. "I just don't think there's in any point in carrying towels around in your bags." He was put of balance breifly by the other two Bladers twin glares.
Kevin took the moment to give his input. "We aren't hurting anyone. It's not like we're going to throw the towel in our opponents eyes in the middle of a match."
"I wouldn't put it past you." Alyssa said, not looking up from her magazine. The other three ignored her.
"I know you're not." Max said. "But it's a bit pointless. It's not like your going to be hitching a ride on an alein space ship any time soon. You don't need one."
"We also don't need you." Alyssa said. Once agein, she was ignored.
"Who cares what we need, and don't need?" Jin asked. "We want them."
"You're also both totally insane." Eve said. She, like her younger sister, was ignored by their team mates, though Kevin took a moment to wonder who she was to talk about the mental stability of others.
Max finnaly managed to get another word in. "Okay, look." he said. "If we see an alein space craft that's about to destroy the world, you can do whatever the hell you want with the towels. In fact, you can do whatever you want with them when we're not in the tournament. But, when we /are/, leave them at home!"
"We can't." Jin said. She received an odd from Max.
"What?" he asked.
"We can't." she repeated. Kevin grinned at her.
"What she means is," he said. "we can't leave them at home. My home is a small Chinese village that no one has ever heard of, and her home is a small apartment somewhere in Norway, even though she's never there."
Max blinked. "Norway?" he asked.
"Me, Rowan, and Noel didn't have the money for Monaco." she answered, in reference to two freinds of hers who she bladed with in local tournaments under the team named 'BladeGodlings'. "We figured New Zealand would be silly." she continued, smirking at the memory of their conversation. "We knew we'd just start laughing every time we explained why we moved there."
"You do that when you explain the Norway thing." Kevin observed. She just smiled would-be innocently, and fluttered her eyelashes.

To be continued.......

AN: Okay, this chapter wasn't very good, was it? I wrote it late one night, under the influence of caffeine (which I react funny to), and sleep-deprivation, after watching the Hitchhikers Guide movie, and before watching the Soap marathon, so I was a bit, well, loopy, at the time. Just thought I'd let you know. Anyway, in the next chapter, I get back on track, and we see the first battle of the BladeGoddesses, as well as a reference to the best TV show in the world (drum roll, please) Soap! Ain't ya` just THRILLED?????? I didn't think so.

PS- We also find out that Jin has a crush on a certain character from Soap. I'll give you three guesses who. You're hint- the team they go ageinst is called 'the Puppeteers'. -_-;;;
