ABBIE: Er hi guys... I have a really great excuse for not updating, you see, it's a really funny story...

EEVEE: (points at furious reveiwers) They look like they could use a good laugh.

ABBIE: Well you see, I was so busy reading and writing all my other fics that I, wait for it, totally forgot this existed! Isn't that funny...

EEVEE: Hysterical...

MEG: (Laughing her ass off)

EEVEE: (Kicks her) I was being sarcastic!

MEG: We do not own Beyblade!

ABBIE: Does it scare you how quickly she changes the subject?

EEVEE: Oh yeah...


Bye Bye Birdie

Tasha looked at the stunned faces of the room, her hawk eyes scanning them. Of course she knew them all already. The blade breakers; Max, Rei, Tyson, Kenny, Hilary (who was not there) and the one member of the team that she knew was there but refused to look at. Kai Hiwitari.

She was panicking now, everyone in the room was eying her with shocked stares, and Hiro was refusing to speak. A new wave of panic hit her as she realised that Kai probably knew who she was as well, and that would mean only one thing. Pain, lots of pain. The bluenette girl realised that she had to leave now if she wanted any chance of escaping.

"This was a m-mistake. I-I shouldn't ha-have come." She spun on her heel and strode towards the door as someone grabbed her arm. Their grip was vice like, effectively stopping her in her tracks. She was spun around to meet crimson eyes full of well concealed shock. Tears sprung to her eyes as she realised that she had been caught, even if she got away now, Hiwitari knew she was alive, he would report back to Balkov.

But that didn't mean that she wouldn't try.

"Hiwitari, let go of my arm." Her voice remained calm but her eyes betrayed her. Her hawk eyes burned with hate and terror, ripping right through to Kai's soul. In an instant the Russian boy relaxed his grip enough for her to pull her arm free.

Tasha turned and ran out, pulling her hood up as she ran. Throwing the door open, she stopped for a moment, turning to face her older brother. Her face shining with tears, but remaining stony.
"I shouldn't have come back, you and Tyson have your own lives now Hiro, you don't need a blast from the past. At least I get to say goodbye this time. Tell Tyson, tell him I'm sorry!" She broke down and bolted out, her long black cloak billowing out behind her.

Everyone except Kai; who was staring at the door turned to Hiro who was also staring at the door in horror, muttering lightly under his breathe.

"No, she's dead, it's a trick, there's no way…" Rei took a few careful steps towards the older boy and placed a comforting hand on his shoulder. Hiro shook his head, clearing it of the mess that was confusing him. A low groan from the couch brought everyone out of their trances, well everyone except Kai.
Hiro leapt up and kneeled by his brother. "Tyson, are you alright, can you hear me!" He breathed a sigh of relief as Tyson's stormy eyes opened, although they were slightly clouded with confusion. Tyson tried to push himself up but Hiro kept him down with one hand. "Tyson, be careful, what happened?"

Tyson's eyes darted around the room, searching for someone who was no longer there.

"Where is she?"

-----------------------------------------------------

Tasha ran, tears pouring down her face, clouding her vision. It was pitch black and freezing but she didn't notice. All she cared about was escaping. She knew that she didn't have long, the second Hiwitari reported her she would have about ten minutes to get out of town.

He hadn't believed it was her, well what had she expected? Him to just welcome her in after eleven years of supposedly being dead. No, she had known he would be more cautious but outright rejection, that she hadn't expected at all.

FLASHBACK

The ally was wet and dirty, it was still dark, only about two or three o'clock in the morning.

A boy and a girl, both wearing very dirty night clothes suddenly turned a corner and bolted down said ally, the girl carrying a younger boy.

A bullet bounced off of a bin, three centimetres to the left of the older boy's ankle, the girl screamed, hugging the younger boy to her chest.

Behind them, a man ran, a small silver gun pointed towards the children. Every time he fired he missed because he was running. He wore a long black trench coat and a black scarf covered his face.

The two children turned another corner, only to find themselves with a dead end. The girl thrust the younger boy into his brother's arms.

"Hiro, take Tyson and run, I'll distract them!"

The boy, Hiro looked at her in shock, while balancing the younger boy in his arms. "No way, we're all going to get out of here, mum and dad would want that!"

Tears leaked from the girl's eyes and her face became more determined. "Mum and dad are dead, accept it, they didn't want to die, but it happened, and this is happening too, so go, I'll be fine!"

"No, Tasha, come with us, we can make it!"

Tasha pushed him forward as the footsteps that had been following them got louder. "Go, save Tyson!"

Something clicked in Hiro's mind, he nodded and ran, and not a moment too soon, the man with the gun turned the corner and saw Hiro run past him, holding a crying baby boy. He aimed at Hiro's back.

"Hey pea brain!" Tasha yelled frantically.

The man turned around and smirked, he aimed and fired, then everything went black.

END FLASHBACK

Tasha was suddenly ripped from her memories as a bright white light nearly blinded her. She stopped running and ripped her eyes open, to be met with two large white orbs, racing towards her. She could hear a beeping sound warning her to move but her legs were paralyzed with fear, her eyes on the truck she screamed and suddenly shut her eyes.

Pain coursed through her body as she flew through the air, the initial hit hadn't hurt so much, well actually it hurt like hell, numbing her mind to anything but the pain. The worst was to come as her body hit the ground head first, not knocking her out, just adding to the pain. Everything was so dark, and she felt wet, not just rain type wet.

"Oh crap… I've pissed myself…" She muttered softly before falling unconscious.


ABBIE: I am so sorry for how short this is, but I hope it's ok!

MEG: (Still laughing)

EEVEE: (Holding a machine gun) must not murder meg... must not murder meg...

ABBIE: Please reveiw, and tell me what you would like to happen, because I forgot the plot...
