Hi everyone here is the next chapter, (mutters under breath) I know someone

asked for who gave the idea for Kari having a beyblade... but I accidently lost

the person name and email address. So I apologize to that person, now onto the

fic.

Starting Over

Chapter Four

      School was a normal affair, school work, the usual things and joking

around with Toya and eating lunch with Yuki. As always he wondered about Yuki,

it seemed to him that the other teen had a strange aura... two sides to it. That

was probably why he had given Yuki the nickname Ying, but another nickname

Yang seemed to belong to the other side of the aura.

      "How's your cousin today?" Yuki asked as he ate, Ranma smiled at the

question. It was here in this town that he had found a home, no longer did he

wonder about... and best of all no more wondering martial artists trying to kill

him.

      "She's fine Yuki, she's even back to school today," Ranma said

truthfully, Yuki smiled at this. So far Yuki hadn't met Kari but he wanted to,

Ranma and Yuki had been instant friends since they met.

      "So, did you give her that beyblade you built?" Toya asked, he knew

about the blade and bitbeast because he had been there when Ranma built it.

      Since leaving Nerima many things had changed for the once aqua-sexual

martial artist. He had discovered a great skill in building amazing things and

great skill in using computers and anything electronic, he knew he had never

discovered his true skills in Nerima because people had never given him time

to get near one.

      "Yup, I plan to teach her to use it after school... want to come?" he

asked, Toya smirked knowing how fun this could turn out to be and Yuki also

smiled.

      "We'd love to, I'll even bring Sakura along... she'd probably like to meet

Kari," he said, Yuki nodded and slipped the last of his lunch into his mouth.

      "Ranma..." Yuki said, Ranma sweatdropped at the puppy dog face his friend

was giving him.

      "Yes Yuki?" he asked, his friend proceded to give a pathetic hungry

look... one he recognized very well.

      "Please..." Yuki begged, Ranma sighed and pushed the rest of his lunch to

his friend. He didn't know how but he had gotten over his food complex

(meaning he ate at normal speeds and normal amount... or at least semi-normal),

but Yuki ate as much as he did... it was because of this he brought extra almost

everyday.

      "Thanks," Yuki chirped, Ranma rolled his eyes use to this... this happened

almost every day.

      "Your welcome," Ranma said, Yuki only nodded as he began eating more

food.

      Eriol ate his lunch quietly, it was a beautiful day and nothing could go

wrong. There was only a few days until the final test for Sakura, then all the

clow cards would be star cards... what happened next he didn't now. He knew that

Sakura had a great destiny ahead of her, but first she had to finish

converting all the cards.

      It was then that he felt a strange aura, curious he looked up and his

eyes widened slightly. Walking towards a large tree was the girl he had seen

earlier, the one that had the aura that rivaled light in the light department

(lol).

      He frowned noticing that she was avoiding everyone, while he hate alone

she looked like the type that would eat with friends.

      'Strange, I must meet her' he thought, if everything went as planned he

wouldn't have time to meet her so this was the perfect time. Once she sat down

he got up and gathered his things, with a smile on his face he walked towards

the brown haired girl.

***

      "Is this seat taken?" a gentle voice asked, Kari jumped startled

slightly and looked up. Looking down at her was a blue haired boy wearing

glasses, Kari frowned slightly and decided to let him sit... Ranma had wanted

her to make friends.

      "No ones sitting there, I was eating alone," she admitted, the boy

grinned and sat down beside her. As she watched he sat down and pulled out his

lunch, soon both of them had finished there lunches.

      "My name is Eriol Moon," the boy said finally putting out a hand to

shake, Kari blinked and had to smile... at least he was friendly and polite.

      "Kari Kamiya," she said with a smile, she put out a hand and shook.

      "Its nice to meet you Kari, I wanted to meet you because were both new.

I saw you earlier today with that black haired teenager, is he your brother?'

he asked, Kari surprised both of them by laughing.

      "No, he's my cousin," she giggled, he blinked and then laughed also.

      "My fault I suppose, so where did you move from... I moved from England?"

he asked, she smiled more and decided that she might as well answer him. So

far he didn't realize she had been a digidestined, maybe she could be friends

with the younger boy.

      "Odaiba, its in Japan so it isn't anywhere near as far as you came," she

said, he shrugged.

      "Hey, what's that sticking out of your pocket?" he asked suddenly, Kari

blinked and then realized that her blade was sticking out of her pocket.

      "It's a beyblade, my cousin Ranma built it and gave it to me today, he

plans to teach me to use it later today" she told him, he looked over the

blade with interest and whistled when he saw the bitbeast on its.

      "Wow a bit beast, what's its name?" he asked, she giggled.

      "Her name is Hikari, my cousin has a bitbeast called Yami," she told

him, he nodded still studying the blade.

      "Very interesting, mind if I tag along when your cousin teaches you to

use it... I'm quite fascinated by bitbeasts?" he asked, Kari frowned as she

thought it over.

      "I don't know Eriol, I'll have to ask him when he picks me up from

school... you can come with me when I ask though," she said, he nodded.

***

      Eriol smiled as he headed back to class when the lunch period ended, he

had actually enjoyed his conversation with Kari. She was a very interesting

person and her aura felt so nice, from the short time he had felt her cousin...

Ranma's aura he knew he wanted to meet the other teen also.

      'I hope I can go along, it seems to me that things around those two can

become quite interesting' he thought, as it was he wondered if Ranma had

anymore bitbeasts... it would be nice to have one of his own.

***

      Ranma smiled as Kari, Eriol and himself walke around the small beyblade

stadium built for practicing. It was a small place since no tournaments took

place here, but it was still quite a good place to train.

      Eriol... he found interesting, the young boy had a strange aura and Ranma

knew he was hiding many things. But he could tell that it wasn't about his

cousin, he felt that Eriol meant no harm to either of them at the moment... so

he wouldn't worry.

      It was then that he felt great emotional depression, he frowned for it

felt as sad as Kari's had been when he had found her.

      "Ranma?' Kari asked seeing him frown, he shook his head.

      "Kari, Eriol, stay here. Wait for Toya and Sakura to show up... Toya knows

what you look like, I have something to check out," he said, the two children

nodded and he quickly slipped out of the stadium.

      Quickly he followed the high emotions, soon he found himself in a back

ally behind the stadium. Soon he heard the sound of crying, and whoever it was

sounded exausted.

      "Who's there?" he asked, the sobs stopped and a child crawled out of a

cardboard box.

      'Oh my goodness, how did a kid get in this situation' Ranma thought in

shock, sitting on the ground was a boy around thirteen years old with a skinny

malnurised body. His long blue hair was greasy and dirty, his clothing looked

as if they hadn't been washed in months.

      "Me," the kid said finally, still frowning Ranma walked over to the boy

and helped him up. Looking down (Ranma is taller) he looked into depressed

blue eyes, it was then he noticed something in the boys hand. Looking closer

his eyes widened, it was a bitbeast... a blue dragon bitbeast.

      "What's your name kiddo?" he asked, the boy sighed.

      "I don't really have one, I use to have a family but my grandpa suddenly

kicked me out of the family for no reason... but call me Tyson," the boy said

sadly, Ranma sighed.

      "Well, I'm Ranma Kamiya and I think you need some food," he said, the

boy then blushed as his stomach growled loudly.

      "But tell me, what happened after?" he asked, this might give him more

of a clue of what had happened to the boy.

      "After I was kicked out I went to see if any of my friends could help

me, you see we all belonged to the world champion beyblade team the

bladebreakers. But they said no... they wouldn't let a ronin near them... I was

dirt to the, they destroyed my beyblade while chasing me away and I only had a

chance to save my bitbeast Dragoon," Tyso said, Ranma growled and wanted to

rip those boys apart... it seemed they had ripped Tyson's heart apart.

      "Don't worry Tyson I won't chase you away, lets go get you some food and

then get you cleaned up and into some new clothing," he said, the boy looked

at him with surprise in his eyes. Then he broke out crying and hugged Ranma,

Ranam sighed for he knew how easily hearts could be broken.

      'Good thing I have two guestrooms, seems like Kari and myself have a new

roommate' he thought, but if he could he planned to find out what had torn

Tyson's life apart.

TBC

Well that was chapter four, as you can see I brought Tyson in from Beyblade

and he will be living with Ranma and Kari. Don't bothering to say Tyson is OOC

and noone in the show would do that, it did happen and it will all be

explained later on... for one thing things are often not what they seem in my

stories.
