Shattered Past

By Kitty-Kris

Chapter One: The first day of the rest of my life

It was around 5 am when Melody slowly opened her sapphire eyes to the ceiling above her and sighed while stretching cat like.

The girl got up from her bed and approached the window, yawning as she opened the curtains, revealing the white outdoors "Oh great. It snowed tonight... As if things couldn't get any colder..." she muttered looking down at the ground, where some boys were. Some were talking to each other, others were simply sitting on some rock, but the one she was looking for, was simply standing next to his friends, who were chatting about something amusing by the looks on their faces.

Tala was the name of that boy, who happened to be her best friend, her brother even. It had always been like that, whenever she had some sort of trouble, he'd be there to help her, and she was thankful for that.

But recently, Melody had developed another feeling for this boy. Even though she was trying to fight it, it was impossible for her to spend a day, an hour, a minute without thinking about him. Now what was that feeling?

"Hey Melly-Chan! What are you doing? It's time for the morning training! Melly-Chan!"

The young girl was awakened by the voice of a robot that sat happily on her bed. She blinked for a couple of seconds before wincing as she remembered where she was "Huh? Oh my God! I totally forgot! I gotta get ready! "

She dove into the bathroom while the robot picked her clothes and placed them on the already made bed.

"Deenix? Is my laptop ready?"

"Ready and willin'. Gee, I can't wait 'til I start working..."

"Save your sarcasm, we got stuff to do, and we better do it quickly before we get in trouble."

The girl came back into her room while finishing her long purple ponytail and got dressed quickly. As soon she was done, she turned to the robot and made it turn it's back on her. "Well, isn't this great? We're late! If Boris catches us we'll be dead for sure! Some trusty bitbeast you are... I told you to wake me at 4:30h. Why couldn't you do it? I'll tell you why: 'Cause you spent the whole night trying out that robotic suit I made you! At least tell me that it's fully functional..."

"Yeah, it is! Now hurry up and put me in the laptop! It's 5:30h, which means we are already half an hour late."

Melody squeaked as she took a bit chip from the back of the robot and inserted it in a laptop while running down the corridor that led outside.

She was halfway when someone grabbed her by the arm turning her around to face them. Only one word went through her mind that moment: 'Damnation'.

"What are you still doing here? Your training was supposed to have started half an hour ago."

"I... I'm sorry I woke up just now 'cause I was working till late last night... I assure you it won't happen again- Master Boris..."

The demented looking pervert known as Boris grinned "It shouldn't have happened in the first place, so I want you to be in my office at 8, that is, in about 2 and a half hours. And I advise you not to be late... or else..."

Melody jerked her head "Yes sir... I'll be going now..."

The man smirked and left to his office, while the girl ran as fast as she could to where she was supposed to go.

(O)(O)(O)(O)(O)

Outside, she found three boys standing outside of a stadium waiting for her. The shortest one was the first to greet her. "Hey! Look who overslept this morning..."

The tall blonde beside him couldn't hold back a grin "No need for you to hurry Melly, afterall you're only... forty minutes late... so no pressure. Take your time..."

Melody frowned at them and turned to the other boy, who had lilac eyes and hair, merely smiling at her in a greeting way. "Mornin' Birdy... Tala's sorta in a bad mood so you might as well expect some nice lectures today."

She just shrugged and opened the door, revealing inside the redhead she had been thinking about.

He turned at the just arriving group with a frown plastered on his face.

Tala's P.O.V.

I frowned at my just arriving team mates "What took you guys so long?"

Ian, the shortest one, quickly made up an excuse "We were, huh... waiting for Melly over there! Yeah! Ask Spencer if you don't believe me! He was with me the whole time! And-and so was- er, Bryan?" he laughed nervously.

I rolled my eyes. As usual he was blaming someone else to get me off his hair. But he was right this one time. It was sort of her fault, afterall, we couldn't start training without her.

I turned to face her, and the minute I laid my eyes on her beautiful sapphire ones, I felt my features soften. I just couldn't help it. I couldn't be mad at her, it just wouldn't feel right...

I stared in awe as she gazed shyly at me as if apologizing for being late. I felt shivers up my spine and all the blood run to my cheeks as she gave me a weak smile.

For how long had I been in love with her? I honestly have no idea. Ever since I've known her I guess...

I quickly shook my head to get rid of that though and avoiding her friggin' hypnotic eyes I frowned "You better have a good excuse for being late you know..."

She just giggled in response and made her way to her usual spot on a corner of the room sitting on a cargo wooden box and turned on her laptop. "Come on guys! Get busy so I can evaluate your performances!" She giggled again making me feel warm and fuzzy inside... She's so beautiful and- WHOA! Did I just think THAT?

End of Tala's P.O.V.

"Tala? Hello? Earth to Tala? TALA!"

The red-haired boy snapped awake "Wha? Oh sorry... erm, should we get started?"

Melody smiled sheepishly as the boys approached the beydish and launched their Beyblades. "Deenix, make sure you get everything they do, every move and every single bloody mistake they make must be recorded and analyzed. Understand?"

A sigh-like sound came from the laptop "No, I'm a nitwit and can never do anything right, duh!"

Melody grinned at that "So good of you to finally admit that! He he... just kidding. Let's get some work done."

"Yes captain!"

(O)(O)(O)(O)(O)

"Ok, guys! You can stop now! We got you're stuff fully evaluated, so come here 'cause it's time for your appreciations!" she grinned evilly at them.

The boys groaned as they approached, and once again, Ian tried to get rid of the lecture, looking down at his watch and hoping that luck was on his side. A grin was soon seen on his face "Hey Melly, weren't you supposed to be at Boris' office ten minutes ago?"

The girl jerked her head up and her eyes widened. She then looked down at the computer's clock and let out a squeak "Holy Mother of all things! I'm SO dead!"

Tala put his finger in his chin in a thinking manner "Hum... yup, you might as well consider yourself as dead as- well, as Boris mother must be… so er, when's the funeral?" he asked with a mocking grin.

Melody ignored him and started running outside while yelling at Deenix to lecture the boys about their performances, which made Ian groan while the other boys laughed at him.

Melody chuckled a bit herself until she arrived to Boris' office. She checked her wrist watch and gulped as she realized she was already 15 minutes late. She quickly turned the door knob and peeked through the small gap. "Er, sorry I'm late, may I?"

The man sitting on the chair smirked and nodded for her to come in his office. "Nice to see you finally arrived... Sit down."

Melody quickly closed the door and took the seat in front of Boris blushing a bit.

The man in front of her stood up and started pacing around the office. "Now, I have some issues to discuss with you, besides the fact that you, against what I've told you earlier, are LATE!"

Melody cringed at his last word, as it was spoken out quite loudly. "I'm sorry..." she mumbled

"Herm, no matter… for now... Now tell me how are the boys doing."

"Oh, they're doing fine, they're improving by the day, and hopefully, on the next championship, we won't have problems in winning..."

Boris gave an evil chuckle "Might be good to remind you that that was what was supposed to have happened on the last championship... and because of your carelessness the boys had to be trained differently and apparently, they lost because of that. Against all odds might I add..."

Melody jerked her head down feeling awfully awkward "I... I told you the ways you were using to train them weren't the best... but you wouldn't listen... It took me ages to get them into their old shape and-"

Melody's eyes widened as she felt Boris arms get around her in an embrace. She quickly tried to get free from his grip but it was useless.

Boris chuckled as he brought his lips closer to her ear "That's nice my sweet. Now, on to your punishment for being late today... twice."

Melody closed her eyes in terror as she felt him lick her neck and squeeze her harder 'Oh God, what am I going to do? He's gonna rape me- JUST A ROTTEN MINUTE! Hell no, his not! I haven't spent over five years learning self defense from him for nothing!' Melody's eyes flashed open as she gave Boris a headbash, knocking him out cold.

She quickly jumped to her feet and stared down at Boris' unconscious body. "Oh good Lord, maybe it wasn't such a good idea… what have I done... He's gonna kick me out for sure after this... if not worse..."

She made her way to the door realizing it was impossible for her to leave, as it was locked, and since Boris probably had the key and she didn't want to wake him up while looking for it she let herself fall down to her knees feeling hopeless. Suddenly, she heard something being thrown at the window, as a little rock maybe.

Her hopes came back as she stood up and went to the window. Down at the field she was more than happy to see Tala and Ian who smiled in relief as they saw her "Yo, Melody! Look up quick!"

She did so and smiled as she saw that on the floor above hers were Bryan and Spencer, the lilac haired boy carefully lowering a rope to her. She quickly grabbed the rope and stepped out into the windowsill. She nodded to the boys above her, who pulled her up with ease, since they were both brawny and she was pretty light herself.

As soon as she was safely with the two boys, Tala and Ian sighed in relief and ran inside to meet the rest of the gang.

R&R PLEASE! n-n
