NB: alright! Thanks to all you people who reviewed. Here's the next the chapter. I wonder how long it will take to finish this story.

Kirara: Just write the next chapter Aibou. You'll find out soon enough.

NB: True. I wonder what taking Kaira, Kai and Ray-chan to come. They should have been here by now. Then again Kaira probably holding on to Kai as she read the Of a Deep Blue over and over again. I think Ray in the More than meets the Eye checking it out since he didn't get to finish reading the dough draft of it. Oh and by the way all the lyrics are taken off the Internet and I don't change it. If I do it's probably cause I'm listening to the song and find they're missing a verse. But I don't change the spelling and all other sorts. So if they're wrong it's not really my fault.

To Rinrin-Chikage sorry about that. Yes {} this means that it is a song. The first song is Journey to the Past sung by Aaliyah (I think that how you spell it) from the Disney Anastasia. This song here At the Beginning is also from here Anastasia. But I forget the artist. The second song in His Prologue is My Will from InuYasha. Does that answer your question?

To ??????????: Thanks that make me feel better. Sorry when I posted that I also a bit under the weather.

Kirara: My Aibou doesn't own any of these anime or songs except Hoshi and Kaira own herself.

Chapter 1 First Day of School/At the Beginning

{We were strangers, starting out on a journey

Never dreaming, what we'd have to go through}

A young girl walked into the schoolyard. It was a fairly big school. She was new to this area, having grown up in a different area of Japan. What surprised her was that there was a middle school right next to the high school. When I say next to it I really meant next to it. All you had a to was walk in a straight line and a minute later you where on the middle school campus from where she was standing.

{Now here we are, I'm suddenly standing

At the beginning with you}

~*~Meanwhile~*~

{No one told me, I was going to find you

Unexpected, what you did to my heart}

Kai and Ray walked onto the campus making sure to avoid the fan girls. They had just finish the Russian Tournament and there where just fan girls everywhere. Even Tyson was getting annoyed with all the fan girls. Now when that happens it isn't a good sign. Mean how many times do you see Tyson get annoyed with attention.

Well since Ray wanted to stay with the Bladebreakers longer he decided to take school here too. Being that he was 14 like Kai he was starting high school with him. Tyson, Max and Kenny all being a year younger was still in the same middle school. So Ray was stuck on in a new school, in a new country with his cold-hearted team captain. Kaira was at another school much to Kai's dismay and semi-broken heart of that he couldn't see his love until the weekend. But he was a survivor he would live until than.

{When I lost hope

You were there to remind me

This is the start}

They walked into the classroom. Kai recognize a few people from the school last year. That when Kai noticed something else. Almost at once all the girls' eyes were on him and Ray. "Damn," he mumble to himself. "This isn't good."

The moment he finish saying that the girls were already giving a chase. Ray had already leaped out of the classroom and was already running. Kai decided to taken Ray's example and run! After a few minutes Kai manage to lose them but in the process lost Ray too.

{And life is a road and I wanna keep goin'

Love is a river I wanna keep flowing

Life is a road now and forever wonderful journey}

~*~

{I'll be there when the world stops turning

I'll be there when the storm is through

In the end I want to be standing

At the beginning with you}

Ray ducked around the corner. The fan girls were hot on his tail. He ducked into the library. Lucky for him none of the fan girls didn't see go in. He wandered farther into the library. Maybe he could find a nice book to read before school started. As he turned around the corner he bumped into someone. The person being smaller of the two fell to the ground. That's when Ray got a good look at the person who he bumped into. Needless to say she took his breath away.

The person was indeed a she. She about half a head shorter than him and had golden hair mixed to two shades of blue. Her eyes where sapphire and there was a little of crimson in them. She was wearing a light blue shirt and blue jeans. She was shaking off the stars in her head. Her books where everywhere.

{We were strangers on a crazy adventure

Never dreaming how our dreams would come true}

"Sorry," said Ray, "I wasn't watching where I was going." He helped the girl up. He heard her mumbling in languages he never heard of and didn't understand. Ray got the feeling that he didn't even want to know what she was saying anyway. Also she looked a tab bit familiar to him for some reason.

"Thanks," she said after. That when she got a good look at him.

{Now here we stand, unafraid of the future

At the beginning with you}

~*~

{And life is a road and I wanna keep goin'

Love is a river I wanna keep flowing

Life is a road now and forever wonderful journey}

The girl looked at the boy in front of her. Fairly taller than her and Chinese. His raven black hair fell to the ground and was tied back with a piece of cloth. He was wearing a white shirt and blue baggy pants. There was a red headband around his head with the Ying and Yang sign on it. The best trait of all was his golden amber eyes, which captivate her and soon she was losing herself in the very depth of them. She brushed the thoughts out of the way when she recognize who she ran into.

"Wait you're Ray from the Bladebreakers," she said half amazed half shock.

He nodded. *I bet he's praying that I'm not a fan girl,* she thought.

{I'll be there when the world stops turning

I'll be there when the storm is through

In the end I want to be standing

At the beginning with you}

~*~

{Knew there was somebody somewhere

I need love in the dark

Now I know my dream will live on

I've been waiting so long

Nothing is going to tear us apart}

Ray was praying that this girl wasn't a fan. Weakly he asked, "Are you a fan?"

He watch the girl giggle and say, "Well I'm a fan but not a fan girl. Don't worry I'm not going to chase you. But I have a question though."

"Uh okay," said Ray. He was happy that she wasn't a fan girl.

"Is Driger a Earth Bit Beast or a Lightning Bit Beast," she asked. "I've been pondering about that for a while."

Ray was a bit puzzled at the question. He never thought a fan would ask that unless they like Kenny who was pretty much gathering data on Beyblade and Bit Beast. "Uh Driger actually a Earth Bit Beast but I think he can be consider a Lightning one too. That being since he was able to use the black lightning attack at the Asian Tournament."

"Really," said the girl processing the information in her head. Then she realized something, "Oops forgot to introduce myself. I'm Cheryl but you can call me Hoshi." She worn a silly grin on her face that reminded Ray of Tyson.

{And life is a road and I wanna keep goin'

Love is a river I wanna keep flowing

Life is a road now and forever wonderful journey}

~*~

{I'll be there when the world stops turning

I'll be there when the storm is through

In the end I want to be standing

At the beginning with you}

Hoshi looked at the boy before her. In reality she thought that Ray was quite cute. *Wait did I just think that Ray was CUTE?! When did I start thinking like that,* she thought, fighting the blush was that coming up.

{Life is a road and I wanna keep goin

Love is a river I wanna keep flowin}

~*~Later In Class~*~

{Starting out on a journey}

Hoshi took her seat near the back of the classroom. She didn't know why but she had to take a family relationship/career class. It was supposedly help later on in your live and help you decided what you want to do when you graduate. They were supposedly to go and do volunteer work after school and that was her grade. She watched the door and was a bit surprised that both Ray and Kai walked into the classroom.

Almost after she noticed them walk in she noticed that all the girls started to drool and several of them got up and headed towards them. She watched as Kai and Ray avoided them and took a seat in front of her. Ray gave her a smile and then sat down. Hoshi just smiled back and returned to reading the book she took out of the library that very morning.

5 minutes later the teacher walked into the classroom. Everyone settled down and she began class. "Good Morning class. I'm sure you're had a wonderful summer vacation."

*Depends whether or not you count the fact that my family died,* thought Hoshi.

Unknown to her Ray and Kai were thinking something rather similar, *Depends whether or not if you count the fan girls chasing us all summer.*

"You will for this quarter will be doing volunteer work at a place you pick out of the hat. You will be paired up in boy and girls partners and yes I will choose them. No arguments please. So I want all the girls to come out and pick a place and then sit back down. I will give you the pairs after that."

All the girls took their piece of paper. There were mixed emotion on their faces. Some were happy, some not. Hoshi looked at her paper. Her eyebrow when up as she read it. "Child Care." *Looks like I'll be spending my afternoons at an orphanage or something,* thought Hoshi. She sat back down and pretty much hoped for a good partner. *I wouldn't mind Ray as my partner,* her mind unconsciously thought. *Wait! Did I just think of Ray again?* Hoshi shook her head of these thoughts as the teacher started to call out the partners.

"Lara and Mike. Sarah and Sam. Tiana and Chris."

There were plenty (Kirara: plenty? More like all of them including you. NB: Not now Yami please?) of groans from the girls that wanted to be paired with Ray or Kai.

"Joy and Ati. Carly and Carter. Cheryl, Ray and Kai."

Dead silence after the teacher said those names. All three of them Kai, Ray and Hoshi were in shocked and all of the girls were glaring at her with hatred. Hoshi and Ray were for the lack of better word speechless. Kai just looked at the teacher with a death glare. Both (Hoshi and Ray) part of them was jumping for joy yet still in shocked.

Hoshi finally shook of her shock as the teacher finish calling out the partners. *I'm paired with Kai AND Ray?! This is got to be a dream,* she thought.

"Alright there can't made any changes with these pairing unless you all want to fail this class. You will meet with your group and then you start work next week. So that gives you a week to prepare and get to know you're partners. Girls please come up to the front to get the information on the place you will working at."

{And life is a road and I wanna keep goin'

Love is a river I wanna keep flowing}

Hoshi shakily got up and got the folder. She took her seat again and looked to see a pair of golden-amber eyes staring at her. "Ack!" She was so surprised that she fell out of her seat and hit the ground with a thump. The same golden amber eyes that surprised her blinked and began to fill with worry. She opened her eyes to find a hand stretch out to help her up. She took the hand and felt herself being pulled up. "Thanks Ray. You kinda surprised me."

Ray scratched the back of his head, "Sorry about that, Hoshi but I didn't mean to scare you."

"That's okay," said Hoshi, "But if you want to know what we are doing it's child care."

Hoshi hear Kai groan as he heard that. She was guessing that Kai didn't like kids and from the look from Ray's face he wasn't too excited either. Hoshi figure after spending what 14 years with her kid sister she could handle any kid. In Hoshi's option you can't get any worse then her sister who was for the lack of better word 24/7 sugar high. Hoshi cringed at the thought as she remembered the last time her sister had found the Halloween candy. Her sister was bouncing off the walls for hours. Until her mom d told her that she couldn't have any more candy. It stopped her sister true but then after that she couldn't even sit still and Hoshi was stuck watching her kid sister for the next couple of hours. Pure torture I tell you.

Hoshi let out a sigh. Oh well nothing she could do about it know. She was stuck watching little kids with two of the cutest guys in the school. One she was already falling head of heeds for the other reminded her of her brother in a way and by now every girl in the either school hates her now. Yeah life was just *prefect*. But Hoshi took another look at Ray when he wasn't looking. "Maybe it wasn't going to be that bad after all," she whispered to herself as those words fell deaf into the noise of the classroom.

{In the end I want to be standing at the beginning

With you...}
