AN: Reviews are coming in slowly but surely, and to those who have put my story on their alert lists, i thank you. An author cannot have a good story without readers that enjoy it.

You may read some stuff in this chapter that seems to be in a diff language. IT will be in Draconian, and will most likely be in Boldtype and or Italics... or i might just type it and put the translation in parentheses.

Chapter Three: "Oh, my beeper went off . . ."

April 23, 1994

After School

"So, Where's a good place to eat around here?" Sugimori said, having becoming fast friends with Tommy.

"Not too Far, actually," Tommy said, "It's the Angel Grove Youth Center, about a block or two away from here."

As the two reached the Youth Center, Sugimori's eyes wondered around.

"Who is that hottie over there?" the young man said, seeing a girl in a pink tank top and hot pants coming their way, "What did i say something wrong?"

"Oh, that's my girlfriend, Kimberly," Tommy said, ruffling the shorter person's hair, "but you did say one thing right, she is hot."

"I heard that," Kimberly Hart said, "Hey, Trini, Billy, Zack, Jase, Tommy's here!"

"Hey, Bro," Jason said, "Who's the pipsqueak?"

"Do you want to keep your tongue?" Sugimori said, sarcasm laced in his voice, "Don't call me pipsqueak. I'm not short, just vertically challenged."

Jason laughed. This kid had a calm demeanor, but he had a tongue on him.

"What's your name then?"

"Kevin Sugimori," The boy said, "good to meet ya."

"Likewise," Jason said, shaking hands with the newcomer.

"So this is the Youth Center, eh?"

"Yup," Tommy said, "Come on, Jason and I teach a class in here, maybe you could join us."

"I prolly shouldn't, i might make you look bad," Sugimori said, no sarcasm in his voice, only sincerity."

"You know we'll have to test you, don't you?" Jason said, amazed at this boy's confidence.

"I'll go easy on you."

As the group of teens walked into the room, Sugimori stood in awe of the place.

"Nice, i likes it," Sugimori said, looking to the juice bar owner, "Howdy, how much for a milkshake?"

"Dollar fifty," Ernie, the Juice bar owner said, "You're new to this place, aren't you?"

"Yup. Lived in stone canyon... was supposed to be in AG a few years ago, but the p;ace we were going to move into burned down," Sugimori said, handing the cash to Ernie, "Name's Kevin Sugimori,I'm your new favorite customer."

"Good to hear," Ernie said, smiling as he gave Sugimori his shake, "Say, you and Tommy boy over there look a lot alike."

"I thought that too," Tommy said, butting into the conversation, "Ready Kev?"

"Are you ready?" Sugimori said in retort.

Jason and Sugimori faced off first. Jason got the first two points, but Sugimori caught up, getting three consecutive points, winning him the match.

Jason smiled. This boy wasn't cocky, he was good. Darn good.

"My turn? Tommy said, "You ready?"

Sugimori grinned, "Ahg, uras Itus. Hirash... (Argh, Too many darn questions...) Yeah."

Tommy recognized that language.

"Egh,narug ledt Shing, (I don't have all day,) Come on," Sugimori said.

"Let's go..." Tommy said, and the two started the competition.

After twenty minutes, neither competitor had obtained a point. It was as if they knew what move the other was planning.

"When the Spires of Arcadia rise," Sugimori said.

Before tommy could process that info, his wrist communicator went off."

"What was that?"

"Oh, my beeper went off, let me go check that."

"Sure," Sugimori said, skeptical.

"Oh, by the way, the answer to your statement is 'the sons of Arcadia will join."

As Tommy and his friends ran off, he smiled as he sat down.

"Ding, we gots a winner."
