Chapter 1 : The Girl With Sapphire Eyes
"Good news boys," Mr. Dickinson passed out an envelope to each member of the Blade breakers. "I've scheduled a vacation for you."
"Awesome," 17 year old Tyson punched the air. "So where are we going? Someplace exotic I bet." Max, Rei and Kenny nodded with pleasure of the prospect of going to some warm tropical destination. As always the oldest member Kai was indifferent to any type of news, which made the rest of the group, excited.
"Sorry but not this time. We're headed to Canada."
"Canada?" Max asked his blue eyes filled with wonder. "What's in Canada?"
"Well a few things," Mr. Dickinson answered the blond boy almost suspiciously. "Including a tournament that I thought might interest you boys."
"Tyson never gives up a chance to blade and I would love to get some data about Canadian bladers," Kenny said beginning to look eager.
"Yeah, Chief's right," Max, agreed. "This could be fun."
"Another stamp on the old passport," Rei added looking at Kai. But Kai's silver eyes showed no emotion. He could care less about where they went to blade; it just meant that he would have to baby-sit Tyson and the rest of the guys. Regardless of the fact that they were almost out of high school the younger boys still needed someone to keep them out of trouble.
"Well that's settled then. We leave tomorrow at 10 am," Mr. Dickinson told the boys as he left the room. "Oh and Tyson, try to be on time. I don't want to have to hold the plane like last time." Max, Rei and Kenny burst out laughing while poor Tyson turned crimson.

The next morning the bladebreakers prepared to board a plane to Vancouver. And as always Tyson was the last member to get to the departure gate.
"Well at least this time he made it before the plane was heading down the runway," Kenny remarked as Tyson caught his breath. Tyson's black hair was in shambles and so where his clothes but al least he made it.
"I'm getting better," Tyson shot back. They all took their seats and buckled themselves in. Kai immediately put on his headphones and stared out the window. Rei, who was sitting beside him, turned and talked to Max across the aisle. He learnt years ago that Kai didn't talk to anyone when he was listening to his music.
After an extremely long flight they finally reached their destination. The boys dragged themselves off the plane. Mr. Dickinson seemed to be the only one awake. He was scanning the airport looking for someone. His face fell when he didn't see what he was looking for but none of the boys seemed to notice. They were too concerned with getting to their hotel to sleep.
"Uncle Dickie!" a voice shouted from behind them. They turned and saw a young girl hug Mr. Dickinson. They would have assumed she was a boy by her clothes from the back. Long, army green cargo shorts, black leather jacket over a white tank top and black skate shoes but her hair and body shape was not that of a guy. She was tall and slender with red brown hair in two buns, one on each side of her head and looked to be about the same age as the blade breakers. When she finally turned and faced them it was her eyes that caught their attention. Her eyes were a dark sapphire that looked almost cold but her bright smile made them shimmer. And the boys found it hard not to stare at them.
"Hi," she said, snapping them back to the present. The boys all blushed including Kai. Who was surprised at himself for reacting the way he did towards this girl. Not that he didn't like girls; just usually one never really interested him right away.
"It's so nice to finally meet you all in person," she said. "Uncle Dickie has told me so much about you all and of course I've seen all the coverage from the World Championships. I feel like I've known you all forever." She left Mr. Dickinson's side and hugged each of the boys. Rei was the only one that managed to hug her back the rest of them were still a little stunned. Kai couldn't believe that she actually hugged him; most girls would have been more than a little intimidated by his standoffish attitude.
"And we know nothing about you," Tyson mumbled after the shock had worn off.
"I'm sorry boys, this is my niece Amara," Mr. Dickinson beamed.
"Niece? You never told us you had a niece," Max questioned scratching his blonde head. Now it was Mr. Dickinson's turn to blush.
"Well…I …" he stammered.
"It's okay Uncle Dickie," Amara hugged him again. "More fun for me."
"Can we talk about this at the hotel? I'm too tired to stand here and talk," Tyson groaned leaning on his luggage.
"Sure we can. But you guys aren't staying at a hotel," Amara grinned at them.
"We're not?" Max asked her.
"Nope, you're all staying at my place. So lets go," she picked up one of their bags and put her arms around Rei and Kenny's shoulders directing them towards the exit. Eager to get to a place to sleep the rest of the gang followed. Amara escorted them outside where a black SUV was waiting. The Blade breakers piled in to the vehicle but Amara did not. She closed the door once they were all inside and walked to the front of the SUV where a green Kawasaki Ninja was parked. The driver of the SUV passed her a black helmet with two white stripes down the middle before she started up the bike and rode in front of the SUV.
"She can ride that thing?" Max looked at Mr. Dickinson.
"She's grown up around motorcycles," he replied. Kai never took his eyes off the bike or its rider the whole drive from the airport to the house. There was something about her that intrigued him.
