After much deliberation, (right) I have finally decided to re-do haunted by
the past- yaoi (or something or other) style!! Now I just have to hope I
don't get kicked off FFNet for this... By the way, since it's yaoi, I'll have
a couple of OCs who I probably don't need but what the heck...

"Beep beep beep bee..."
Kai slammed his fist on his alarm clock before it could wake his slumbering dorm mates. Grabbing his uniform, he headed for the bathroom.
Going through his usual morning routine of bathing before donning his school uniform, he allowed his mind to wonder; his routine was well- established enough he could trust himself to do it automatically and not end up walking in for breakfast with his shirt on inside out as Tyson seemed wont to doing. The Beyblading Nationals were coming up and he had a team; yes, HIS team. As in he was the team captain trying to keep together a bunch of idiots who would otherwise fall flat and disgrace the school despite their talent.
Quite a thankless job really. Kai had to wonder why he did it in the first place. Oh yeah, because, as Ria had so bluntly put it after one particularly hard practice, he was a control freak. Oh well, he'd long given up trying to change that and as far as Kai could see, it was serving its purpose pretty well. It wasn't as though he could change what he was even if he wanted to anyway. Kai snapped out of his reverie as he accidently knocked his shin against the toilet. Not bad, he was bathed and changed- without any misplaced articles of clothing.
In the canteen, he saw Ria sitting at the table with enough toast for two. Besides Rei, she was the only member of the school Beyblade team who could wake up earlier than him. Hell, if the otherwise empty canteen was anything to go by, she was the only one in the school aside from Rei who could wake up earlier, ever.
"Have some toast Kai." She said without looking up from her book.
"Hn." Kai replied taking a seat. Five minutes later, Rei joined them, long hair wet from an early-morning shower. He was probably the only student in the school to get away with such long hair; all he had to do was claim it was for religious reasons and always keep it neat and clean. Easier than defying teachers and a ready answer to any curious and skeptical classmates.
"Morning!" said the Chinese blader cheerfully. Ria replied in a similar tone while Kai just grunted. Rei looked around furtively before sitting down and whispering to the other two teenagers sitting across the table.
"Kenny did a search on the Demolition Boys, and if his stats are right, we're in for one hell of a fight."
"Enough of a fight that we may actually have to activate our bitbeasts?" Ria asked.
"In all probability,yes." Rei replied, showing his feline fangs in an evil smile. Or at least evil for him. The Chinese boy was by nature simply a very pleasant person. Something every one on the team noticed and appreciated, even Kai. Not that Kai ever said anything about it.
"Tell the other's training is doubled." Kai said as he left the table, presumably to work in a little pre-morning class practice.
"Owch, Tyson is not going to like that." Ria pointed out. It was true; the "pig" of the group had a strong aversion to any Beyblade training organized by the team captain.
"Precisely." Said Kai with an evil smirk as he exited.
"He's so evil sometimes it's scary." Ria noted. Rei duly nodded his assent; sometimes it was better to simply agree with one's younger sister.
~End~
Look, I'm really too lazy to a really good job of this so what the hell. Relax, Ria is NOT going to end with Kai like another one of those dreaded mary-sues. Review with a little positive feedback and maybe I'll get off my butt to re-do and re-post the second chapter. :)
