Disclaimer: Don't own Beyblade. Don't own any of the events that happen in this series. Based on true stories that I've read from magazines or have seen on TV. Names from the original stories will not be told. Hell house on the series A haunting is a Discovery channel production.

Author notes: I've stumbled across lots of ghost stories, and have encountered a few unexplained things myself. I've decided to turn this into a long series, each segment will be named Eg. Hell house, etc. I love reading about a good ghost story and I hope you do too. The length of the segments/cases will vary from one chapter to multi-chapters. Most of the cases will tie in together, but there might be a oneshot that stands alone. So, enough from me. I hope you enjoy!

Another note: I've got some bad news, good news, then bad news again. First the bad; I've sprained my wrist yesterday, which hurts like hell and I won't be typing for awhile (I'm currently using my left hand and it's slow going). The good news is that I've finished typing the two last chapters to "End of being alone" and I have almost completed a couple of chapters to this fic. And the last bit ofbad news is that I haven't started on the next chapter for "I will take care of you". Despite all that I'm in a far better mood than I was yesterday, big thanks to everyone for trying to cheer me up. You're all very sweet. I might be able to do finish off a couple of chapters of this fic since I'm nearly finished anyway, using only my left hand which should be fun, because I have a couple of days off and I know I'm going to be bored brainless. Anyway that's it from me, for real this time. Enjoy!


"I don't understand, Judy," Eddy said, leaning over the back seat of the minivan the PPB Allstars are riding in. "Why don't the PPB just pay for a hotel for us to stay in?"

"Well, Eddy, the PPB thought it would be best that this team has their own house to live in while we train," Judy explained. "I'm sure you all would prefer your own bedrooms, anyway."

"Yeah, I guess," Eddy sighed, falling back into his seat.

"What, afraid to clean up after yourself, Eddy?" Steve sniggered next to him.

Eddy groan. "Man, I can't believe I forgot what a totally pain in the ass you can be."

"Judy," Emily whined. "Do I really have to share a house with these immature boys?"

"Now, Emily," Judy half scolded. "I'll be living there for a while too. Someone has to make sure you stay out of trouble."

"I don't cause any trouble do I, mum?" Max asked, an innocent puppy grin on his lips. Although grin looked innocent to the untrained eye, underneath there was a certain mischievous feel to it.

Judy saw right through it. "I've been a parent for 15 years, Max. I think I know a little better than to trust my own son."

Max laughed, knowing that his mum was just joking. He knows his mum can't wait to spend time with him and the rest of the all stars under living conditions.

"It seems your mum has even seen through your innocent look, Max." Rick smirked.

Max chuckled. "She's not the only one. I can't get anything passed Kai. It's so freaky how he knows everything, even before you do."

"Maybe Judy should take a lesson or two from him," Emily smirked.

"Oh, hush, all of you," Judy half scolded.

But the mindless chatter continued, with Max telling the others how Tyson could never, ever get anything past Kai. During all this, Michael sat in the far corner of the bus, staring blankly out the window. With each second that passes, he felt increasingly uneasy, a feeling that something wrong, something bad was going to happen. He has never been the type to predict depending doom, or anything of that nature. But right now, if he could, he'd leave this quiet little town and head back to the city. There at least, he knew what to expect.

"Here we are," Judy announced as she pulled the van into a long, stoned driveway that lead to a old, large, Mississippi type house.

"Oh, wow!" Max exclaimed, eager to exit the van and have a look around.

Judy stopped the van. "Come on, why don't you have a look around?"

Everyone left the van slightly excited, even Rick. They took the keys from Judy and raced up the front porch, hastily unlocked the large double doors, and took off in different directions inside.

Judy chuckled at their enthusiasm, but was shortly surprised to note that Michael wasn't amongst them. She turned to the van and saw that Michael was lingering near the van, his arms folded across his chest, looking almost frighten as he glanced up at the old house.

"Michael?" She asked. "Is there something wrong?"

Slowly, Michael turned his gaze away from the house to regard Judy. "I don't like it," He said. "It's… it's evil."

"Oh, don't be silly," Judy scoffed. "You haven't even been inside yet."

"I don't want to," Michael stuttered.

"Well, you don't have much of a choice," Judy replied, sternly. "As of today the PPB officially own it, and we're living in it until your training is over. So go inside and have a look, and pick out your room, or you'll be left with the smallest."

Reluctantly, Michael began to venture towards the house, his heart in his throat. As he entered the house he immediately got the feeling that someone was staring, no, glaring at him. Glaring with absolute hatred, feeling as though someone was staring less than a few inches from his face. He shivered and wrapped his arms around himself.

Inside, the house was large, spacious and filled with antique furniture. A few feet from the front doors was a large staircase leading upstairs to the bedrooms.

Michael made his way towards the staircase but noticed a shadow from the corner of his eye. He squinted at the pathway along side the staircase that probably lead to the kitchen or something. He walked down it, past a stairway cupboard. Suddenly the door sprung open, hitting Michael on the arm.

"Ah, shit," He muttered as he rubbed his arm with his other hand. He glanced wearily at the door. Slowly he lifted his hand to open the door fully to see if there was anything inside.

"Michael!"

Startled, Michael whipped around.

"There you are," Eddy said. "Was wondering where you went. Come on, you need to check out the bedrooms."

Michael took a second to glance at the open door one last time and then followed Eddy to the stairs. As he slowly climbed the stairs the glaring sensation grew stronger, and he got the distinct feeling that none of them were welcomed here. He began to wonder if anyone else was getting the same feelings as he is.

"Hey, Michael," Max greeted. "Here's your room."

Max lead the unwilling Michael to the bedroom at the end of the hall. He stepped inside to see only a few bare essential of furniture in there. A double bed was pushed up against the window, a small bedside table, a dressing table and a large wardrobe. He looked at the wardrobe again, swearing that it just shook. Shaking his head and turned to Max who was still standing in the doorway.

He looked concern.

"What's wrong, Michael?" Max asked. "Don't you like the place?"

"Um, no not really," Michael replied, giving a shaky smile. "It's giving me the creeps, but I suppose it's just because it's old and drafty."

"Yeah," Max agreed. "You'll get use to it. Anyway, my room is next door, then Rick's, then Eddy, Steve, Emily and my mum."

Michael nodded, and watched as Max left the room, walking back to his own. The knowledge that everyone else was sleeping on the same floor offered little comfort. On one side he has Max's bedroom, on the other he has nothing, just open space outside. A feeling of isolation seeped in. He might be a teenager, but the feeling of being alone in this house scares him.

He hates this house, and he's pretty sure this house hates him. In fact, he thinks that this house wants him dead.

What has he and the rest of his team got themselves into?


Tada, first chapter done. What do you think of it so far. If some of you guys have already seen the show 'A haunting' and seen this episode of it, I'm pretty sure you know what to expect, but please keep it to yourselves for there are others who haven't seen it, and I'd like to keep it a surprise. But also, it's only based on that episode, it won't be word for word, I'll add a few things and leave some out. Thank you.

Oh, and a question. Is the All starz called the PPB All starz, or the PPA? I'm a little confused.

Next chapter: First night in the new house.

Read and review, please.
