Disclaimer: Takao Aoki owns beyblade. I own my OCs and plot.
This is the sequel to The Fifth Blader. I suggest you read that fist, but it's not necessary if you don't feel the need to know things about which you're reading. (So yeah, you're gonna wanna read it to know what's up. And if you're not interested in long stories, this one will be, and the one after, etc.)
This is up a lot sooner then planned, but I'm as anxious for this as you guys are. I hope you like it!
Thanks to everyone who reviewed TFB and those who continue to. You are the fuel for this sequel. Yay! You meet new characters in this chapter! –Does a dance- Last time I pegged it, TFB had 67 reviews. (Before repost. Add them to get the total.)
The only reason all their frames are pretty much skinny is cause it's hard to draw otherwise! –Sweatdrops- Sorry girls!

Always – Chapter 19 months later...
Elisabeth had just finished practice and wasn't hungry. It didn't matter anyway, since Boris had removed her dining privileges for the day. Damn him. She went back to the room she shared with Amelia, T'atiana, Aoki, Andy and Natalia, more commonly known as Lia.
Her new roommates weren't bad. Except they weren't all exactly roommates. The girls' team was split into two rooms.
T'atiana is 17, with a not-too-tan skin tone and silky black hair to her hips. She's tall and skinny, with... a chest. She has pouty red lips and green eyes.
Aoki has blue/green hair that's always tucked into a bun, so only the girls know how long it is. She's pale and small. She's as tall as Lia, but she's only 14.
Lia has short cropped light-brown hair, hazel eyes and is pretty pale. She's not as skinny, nor as tall as Tatiana. She's 16, like Elisabeth.
Amelia has long silvery/white hair. The purple streaks she once wore have grown out, without getting re-done. She's very tall and classy. Is also pale with deep purple eyes.
Andy has short blond hair to just below her ears. She has green eyes and is of average size and build.
As she made her way back to the room, she saw Rurik, her other new friend.
They greeted each other as usual and she kept on walking.
Rurik has really dark brown/red hair that's pretty short except the long pieces that stick up in front and the small ponytail in back. He's tanned and has quite a bit of bulk muscle. He's 17 and is really nice, even after being in Balkov Abbey since he was just little, like Kai had.
She walked down the hallways and passages to the dorm area. The girls who she shared a room with were T'atiana and Aoki. Amelia, whom was now referred to as Mimi, (Cause there could be two Lia's, and that would be bad.) Was in the next room along with Andy and Lia. A door connected the two rooms.
She got to the corridor where their dorms were. A lot of the older boys roomed here as well. Kai, Rurik and Tala were together, joined next to Brian, Ian and Spencer. There were other boys' rooms here as well, but Elisabeth didn't know them.
She headed straight to her room and found Aoki blaring Linkin Park - Numb.
She immediately covered her ears. She liked the song, but not at such "It sounds like something is exploding in my ear" Volumes.
She went over to the player and turned it down to vol. 6 on the machine, which is as loud as Boris would allow.
"You know Aoki, if you keep blaring music like this, our privileges are going to be removed."
She glanced at Elisabeth carelessly. "Yeah."
Elisabeth tilted an eyebrow. Aoki was being moody again. She only did that after she got punished.
'That's why she wasn't at practice today...'
"What did you do this time?" She asked.
Aoki was silent.
"Aoki..." Elisabeth warned.
"Alright, alright! But I still say it shouldn't be against regulations to hotwire your friends car to go to the mall and come right back!"
Elisabeth was laughing...and then stopped. She looked at Aoki cautiously.
"...Aoki..."
"Mmm?"
"Which friends' car did you hot-wire?"
Aoki smiled sheepishly. Her cheeks grew hot and red.
Elisabeth let out an exasperated sigh. "Oh Aoki, what am I gonna do with you? You could have even asked for the keys! No need to damage my car."
Aoki's ears were red now.
Elisabeth stared. "What the hell did you do to my car?" The amount of fury was almost luminous.
"Its just a scratch! My punishment was to go to the shop and fix it with the guys."
"And then?"
"I sorta made it worse so they have to remold the metal of your door, repaint your car and redo the detailing."
Elisabeth flung open the door and marched out. She didn't want to do anything to Aoki. She was only 14, after all.
As soon as she got out the door, she walked into something hard.
"Oof.." She was going to fall, but was caught by... whatever it was.
She looked up. She blushed. "Hi Kai."
He smiled. She loved it when he smiled, 'cause he only did it when she does something stupid. (Which she does a lot :P) She was one of few who could make him smile.
"Bumping into things I see. Wanna go to dinner? You weren't there for first shift so I left. There's only a half hour left you know."
"I know. But I don't have privileges today, remember?"
He nodded and smiled apologetically.
He took her hand and walked her to the room across the hall. It was his room, so Voltaire had kept every bit of his word. For all nine months.
He picked her up and plopped her down on the bed. She snuggled into him and he turned on the television. They flipped over to the movie channel and watched whatever was on. They did this a lot because the boys had TV privileges four days a week. Everyone has music privileges from 9:00 to 11:00, every day. Girls only get TV if they hang out with boys.
They watched the movie for another hour before evening practice. The movie was Ringu. They heard the shrill evening bell and turned off the TV. The headed out quickly because after evening bell, they had only 10 minutes to get to wherever they had to be.
They met up with the Demolition Boys and the Annihilation Girls and proceeded to Boris' S Class Training Area.
After training launches for two hours, they proceed to combat, and whoever lost had to do 40 laps around the room. (Big room. 10 stadium size dishes.)
Lia, Aoki and Ian were doing laps with a lot of other kids. Lia lost against Spencer, Aoki against Tala and Ian against Kai.
The two teams waited for their trailing members and then went to their quarters. Lia and Aoki went for a shower and everyone else went to they guys' room.
Elisabeth lay on the side of Kai's bed with her head upside-down. He sat at the desk chair and almost everyone else was sitting on the floor or a bed. Aoki and Lia returned after their showers.
Elisabeth, then sat on the floor in front of the bed and let Aoki braid her hair. They'd been doing this a lot lately, as they'd become such close friends. Both of the S class' prime lineup, The Demolition Boys and Annihilation Girls had become close and had pre-eminence to most bladers in the Abbey.
They were La crème de la crème. The top bladers. Always.

Woo! How's that for a first chapter? Yes, some of the names are Russian. T'atiana, Rurik and Natalia are. What do you guys think about different class situations? I haven't kept you guys waiting for long, have I? But I'm sure you don't mind.
For those who review, I need you to vote on whether or not I should call Amelia "Mimi" or not.
Please review and tell me what you think.
