Disclaimer: -sigh- I no own Beyblade. There. I said it. Happy now?

Author's Note: This fanfic is ALL ABOUT Max and the All Starz. Gee, that was unexpected (sarcasm). Anyway, if you happen to dislike the All Starz or Max, DON'T READ THIS (for obvious reasons)! Also, this is one of my first fanfics ever. Anyway, enjoy and remember to review!


Prologue

"GROCERY SHOPPING?" yelled Rick, confused and shocked. You could tell he was confused and shocked, too; he looked like he had just seen a pig carrying Tyson fly by (which we all know is beyond impossible).

"Aw, come on, Rick! It'll be fun!" exclaimed Max, patting Rick on the back. Max was grinning, as usual, but right now, he seemed to be trying to hold back laughter. Everyone else was trying not to laugh, too. Eddy, however, was not doing a very good job at this. He kept snickering every five seconds or so.

"Uh, yeah, Rick… fun. Lots of fun!" lied Michael.

Emily was getting tired of trying to convince Rick that grocery shopping was fun. "Okay, fun, right. Let's GO already!" She grabbed Rick and tried to pull him along, but had no success. Rick was too… uh… muscular for Emily to drag.

Max laughed. "Come on, Rick! We're almost out of food. Do you want to starve or something?"

Rick thought for a second. "No…"

"Exactly!" said Eddy. He was still giggling.

"Okay, fine, I'll go on your stupid grocery shopping trip. But we go in, we get the stupid food and we're out of that stupid place! Got it?" Rick was obviously not happy about going on the "stupid grocery shopping trip."

"Got it!" answered Max. He pushed Rick out the door and they were on their way!

Truth was, though, they weren't out of food at all. In fact, their fridge was so full you couldn't fit more food in it if you tried. But that's not the point. The point was that the All Starz were bored and needed something to do. The first thing that popped in to their minds: grocery shopping. And that's why they were standing near the door at the grocery store… Well, that and the fact that Tyson and Daichi were visiting next week.

"Any chance we can go home while we can?" asked Rick, looking and the store like it was Tyson at an all-you-can-eat buffet.

"Nope," said Michael, giving Rick a funny look. "Did you actually think we'd say 'Yes, Rick. We came all this way just we can go right back home again?'"

Rick sighed. "Yes, actually, I did. Thanks so much for crushing my hopes and dreams," he said sarcastically.

"You're SO welcome," was Michael's also sarcastic reply.

"Okay, guys, cut it out," Emily said, giving them a look that said 'don't-you-guys-dare-start-fighting-in-a-public-place-and-embarrass-us-all.'

"Let's just get this over with," Eddy suggested, walking into the grocery store, with Max following him. Emily, Michael and Rick glared at each other for a second, and then walked in as well.

'Goodness knows what the heck is going to happen in HERE,' Rick thought as he glared at everyone in the store.
