After a terrifying yet exhilarating journey on the motorbike, they arrived at the beach in one piece. Once the bike had stopped, Raven immediately made an utter fool out of herself by falling off the bike.
Ozuma picked her up and set her back on her feet with a smile on his face, apparently not noticing the tomato red blush that stood out against her pale skin.
They had been walking down the beach for about an hour or so, talking about anything and everything. Kai was so wrong, thought Raven; he is a really nice guy, a really cute, nice guy.
"Hey you wanna go get an ice cream?" he asked her, casually slipping it into the conversation.
"Sure" she said and they both headed towards the ice cream stand.
"Two vanillas please" Ozuma told the ice cream man, he then paid for the two cones and handed one to Raven.
"Thanks"
"My pleasure" he smiled at her again, she really liked him.
They both sat on the sand eating their ice creams. Watching the sun set over the water. It was beautiful.
"Raven?"
"Hai?" she answered.
"You've got ice cream on your nose" he chuckled.
"Oh no" her hand flew up to her face only to be stopped by Ozuma wrapping a hand around her wrist.
"I'll get it" he smiled seductively at her, and leaned towards her face. He was so close she could feel his breath rushing past her skin, leaving goose bumps in its wake. She froze, not knowing what to do.
Her tongue darted over her dry lips, temporarily moistening them. Ozuma expertly licked the ice cream of her nose, before leaning his forehead against hers and grinning like an idiot. She hardly knew him and yet she felt that she could trust him.
She smiled back at him, and any thanks she was going to give came out as a muffled sound as he captured her lips with his own.
She froze in shock, before she began to kiss him back. Her head was spinning and her knees felt weak. It was a good thing she was sitting down. Ozuma pulled out of the kiss for air and gazed directly into Raven's ice blue eyes. He had gotten what he wanted.

"Ooh Tyson look!" Hilary tugged on the navy haired boy's sleeve, bringing his attention to a particularly beautiful pale pink rose. "Isn't it beautiful?" she sighed. Hilary had always loved plants and flowers, they were her obsession.
'Just like you' Tyson thought, "Yeah Hil, it really is, hey look a plane!" he jumped up and pointed to the sky, just as a Tornado F3 went screaming over their heads. Hilary knew that Tyson was fanatic about aircraft. The walls next to his bed in his dorm were plastered with posters of them.
"One day, Hil, you'll see me flying one of those" he said dreamily, dropping onto the grass beside her, lazily watching the fighter jet roll in the sky.
"I'm sure you'll be a very good pilot, Ty" she soon got bored with watching the aircraft and returned to admiring the gorgeous pink rose. It was growing right in the middle of a patch of deep red roses and looked totally out of place amidst the crimson sea.
She swung her gaze up to the sky and just sat there watching the clouds roll by.
"Hey Hilary?"
"Hn?"
"Here" she felt something being thrust into her hands, she looked down to see the perfect pale pink rose held between her fingers.
"Thank you Tyson" she said quietly, "I love it" a slow blush crept up her cheeks
She looked up to his face only to see that he had plastered a stupid grin on his but his cheeks were tinged a pale pink.
He pulled her into a hug her, head resting on his shoulder. Together they just laid there on the grass, watching the sky, nothing can get much better than this, thought Hilary.
Grumble
Hilary sat up and looked at Tyson who rubbed the back of his head subconsciously and laughed sheepishly.
"Heh, guess I must be hungry" he said with a chuckle, Hilary sighed and smiled, some things would never change.
-*-
"It's too hot!" Yushi cried, dropping her head down onto her arms. She, Johnny, Mariah and Rei were all sat on the jetty that jutted out over the lake. It was half-way through autumn and it was still absolutely roasting hot. Johnny didn't seem at all fazed by the heat and was grinning at her.
"I don't know how you can stand this Johnny?!" she sighed, she was laid out on her stomach on the edge of the jetty, waiting for the sun to dry her t-shirt and shorts out, which were all laid out at the side of her, leaving Yushi sat there in just her scarlet swimming costume.
"I, unlike you, in a relatively cold place Yush, I welcome any hot weather we get" he said shrugging, "Besides, if you are that hot, I can think of a way to help you cool down" he smirked at her.
"Then please tell me it, oh mighty one" she said sarcastically. Johnny stood up and walked over to her, and picked her up in his arms and walked towards the edge of the jetty. She started to struggle like mad when she realised what he was about to do.
"No Johnny don't!" she squealed, but it was too late, she dropped her off the edge of the platform, straight into the cold water below.
She surfaced spluttering and coughing, "Oh, you are so gunna get it, Johnny!" she yelled, and climbed out of the water, she ran full pelt down the length of the jetty. She leapt clean over Rei and Riah's heads and pounced on the red haired teen, toppling them backwards into the water.
"Is it just me or are we the only sane ones here?" Riah said quietly to Rei.
"Us sane ones should stick together" Rei nodded and they both grinned at each other before bursting out laughing.
"Well, mostly sane anyway" Riah gasped through her giggles.
"You wanna go leave these two to kill each other, and go get a drink?" Rei asked, watching Yushi try to drown Johnny, but not succeeding.
"Why not" she shrugged and they got up and walked towards the outdoor drinks stand.
She and Rei both ordered cokes and sat back on two deck chairs to watch Yushi attempt to murder Johnny in the distance. Riah glanced around her when something colourful caught her eye.
"Hey look, the school dance is on Friday!" she yelled, bouncing and frantically pointing at the poster. Rei was afraid she'd done a Yushi and something in her head had finally snapped.
"Oh no," she covered her mouth with her hands and looked totally shocked, "I don't have any formal wear!!!" she wailed dejectedly.
Rei leant over to her and patted her back comfortingly. "Don't worry about it, I'm sure you and the girls can all go shopping tomorrow after school, ahh wait, shit, I don't have any either!"
"Why don't you come with? Bring the guys, I mean I doubt very much that they have anything like that" she glanced back at the poster, "hey, it says here they want some local bands for the night, this gives me an idea" she grinned like a maniac and her eyes lit up like stars.
-*-
Emily was sat on the bank of the lake, staring out over the water.
"Hey there Ems!" she heard a voice cry out in the distance, she didn't pay attention to it and was broken out of her reverie when someone pounced on her and enveloped her in a bone crushing hug.
"Maxie, it's nice to see you too but has someone given you any sugar?" she choked out.
He let her go and scratched his head, "well I had a coke this morning and then I had a candy bar with my lunch ooh yeah and there was-"
"Forget I asked" Emily giggled, "What brings you to the thinking place of the mighty Emily?"
"Nothing in particular, what were you thinking about?" he plonked himself down the ground next to her.
"Nothing in particular" she mimicked, a giggle escaping past her lips. He smiled down at her.
"Em, I want to ask you summits" he started, blushing like crazy.
She turned to look at him, jeez him blushing was making her blush, damn blushes!
"Would-you-go-to-the-dance-with-me-on-Friday?" he said in one breath and his slight blush turned into a full blown tomato red flush.
Her heart skipped a beat, did he just? Yes...OH MY GOD!! She figured that she had better say something, before he got the wrong idea.
"O-Ok! I'd love to" she stuttered, and he let out his breath in one huge whoosh, he hadn't realised he had been holding it. A huge grin spread across his face as he held out a hand to Emily.
"Deal?" he asked, she clasped his heand in her own and gave one firm shake.
"Deal"
~*Later that night in the girl's dorm*~
"Well girls, I, have a proposition for you" Mariah was stood in the middle of the room. Each of the other girls were sat on their beds. Yushi was sat cross legged and looked very excited, almost bouncing up and down. Hannah was sat as far back on her bed as she could, almost hidden by the shadows, seemingly curled underneath the angel on the wall.
Hilary was sat on her bed, lovingly placing the pale pink rose in a tall twisted glass vase, Emily and Raven were sat on the floor in front of Raven's bed playing some card game.
When she was sure she had everyone's attention, Riah continued.
"I think we should reform the Shattered Souls, to play for the dance on Friday" She looked around at her friend's faces and waited for the silence to break.
"Well, I don't have a problem with it" this came from Hannah, she uncoiled herself from her shadowy corner.
"What's the Shattered Souls?" Raven asked inquisitively.
"Our old band, and we have a place open, if you're interested" Yushi said, looking at Raven with huge blue eyes.
"Yeah, Mariam used to be our backing singer, though she often shared the main vocals with Hannah, we finished the band when she left, so are ya interested?" Emily grinned at her.
"Sure am, I love singing!" Raven jumped up and punched the air.
"Welcome to the Shattered Souls, Raven Bacari" Mariah grinned, "I think we should book the practice room for tomorrow after school"
"Pfft, we'll have to fight the Demolition Boys and the Blade Breakers for it" Hilary said, placing the rose on her desk, next to a number of other plants that littered her desktop.
Raven looked at Emily and Yushi with a blank look on her face.
"Huh? Oh yeh! Kai, Rei, Tyson, Maxie and Kenny are all in a band called the Blade Breakers, Kai as main vocals, Rei on lead guitar and Maxie on bass, Tyson is crazy on the drums and Kenny got the keyboard, they are really good, but not as good as us of course!" Yushi said excitedly, "they weren't too adventurous with their band name though, sticking with the blading team name"
"And the Demolition Boys?" Raven asked, looking blankly at the orange haired friend.
"Yup, that's the goony gang, Bryan on drums, Tala on lead guitar with Spencer on bass. Ian's on the keyboard, even though he has to sit on a very high chair just to reach" Emily said and Yushi snickered behind her while Riah grinned widely, "And Ozuma on vocals, though sometimes Tala sings"
Raven did a double take, "Ozuma's in the band?!"
"Yup and he's not too bad either"
"But nothing compared to me and Raven" Hannah scoffed quietly
"How would you know, you've never heard me sing" Raven stared at the gothic teen.
"I don't need to, from what Kai tells me you're brilliant" Raven felt her face heat up, she turned away to hide her glowing cheeks.
"Anyway, moving on, where did you go this afternoon Rave?" Yushi asked, flopping backwards onto her bed and making odd symbols in the air by waving her hands around.
"At the beach, with Ozuma" she stated, "What?" she looked cautiously around her at her friends concerned faces.
"Raven, I'd watch yourself with that one, none of us want to see you get hurt" Raven turned around to face Hannah, who had moved to stand behind her.
Raven was getting slightly pissed off with people telling her that, she was capable of making her own judgements. Why couldn't they see how good a person Ozuma really was, and why would no one tell her what they meant?!
-*-
S-E: You like, you hate? Oh yes and Ozuma has been adopted into the Demolition Boys, and I am aiming to get 30 reveiws before I post my next chapter...ooh and am off on holiday in 15 days! W00t!
Kai: Hooray!
S-E: Shut up, you love me really
Kai: No I don't
