A/N: STORY UPDATE 2011! 8D this story has also been around for a while lol Originally published and Finished in the year 2006; I have decided to tweak it and update it a little too (get rid of so many bold words and phrases and stuff) but the story is mainly the same it was back then.

As a writer, I have matured and improved my way of writing, but I still think it's fun to look back and see my previous stories; maybe blush a little as I think, "omg, what the flip was I thinking lol!" May sound a bit hypocrite, since I'm leaving the story as is, but still changing a few "immature" aspects of a noob writer; that's because I now understand that having complete phrases in bold, italic and underline Plus Caps and about a thousand exclamation points (LIKE THIS!) is irritating and hurting my eyes, so I can just imagine what it's doing to yours... D:

My other story, Tonight was written around the time I was finishing this story up, so naturally, it's "better" written; I personally think that some reviews I got about this being mary sue and whatnot were right, but hey, I had fun writing this story, so I will leave it up here and share with everyone, like it or not :D I was just a little upset that fanfiction deleted all my "00000" (they were the indicator that I was separating the scenes) So it ended up looking run on, unfocused (maybe more than it was already XD) and messy... so here I am, trying to fix that. Well, rant is over, on with the story! :D

Suki Tatewaki.

That was the name of one of the 16 year olds in Aoi High School. She had natural black hair, with baby blue highlights; it reached down to her mid back. Her eyes were a dark shade of purple, which were even more noticeable with the pale skin she was born with. They were cold and emotion less around strangers, but warm and happy around those she really loved. They were beautiful, especially when they turned a shade of pink under the rays of the sun. She had average sized lips; light shades of pink defined them but were not as noticeable like her eyes.

Suki had a strange passion for chocolates, which only a real chocolate-lover would understand. Her favorite flower was the black and red rose, and as for mystical creatures, she like phoenixes, dragons and fairies.

At school she had only two friends. One of them was a 16-year-old, white, brown eyed, brown haired girl named Yumiko Hazama. She cared for Suki, and had a ten-year-old sister named Maya Hazama. Teletha Hinashiro was Suki's other friend. She was 16, white, gray eyed, gray haired, happy, bossy, curious and an only child. It was not that Suki wasn't social, it was that she was very picky with friends. No one could blame her; she had suffered betrayal enough times to be cautious about what friends she decided to have. When she wasn't with her friends, she was alone; she never really spent time with her family. But the truth was, that she never really was alone.

She had a spirit friend, Odeon was her name. She was Suki's Bit Beast. Odeon was a Black Phoenix, with golden legs and beak, silvery eyes and nine red tails. She threw fireballs out of her beak like a dragon. The mystic beast had a mind connection with Suki, that it could be said Odeon was Suki's conscience. When Suki needed to talk to someone she completely trusted and neither Yumiko nor Teletha where there to listen, she would talk to Odeon. She would appear as an illusion by her side, a ghostly figure only Suki could see. They would communicate through thoughts.

Suki lived with her family, consistent of a mother, a father, a sister and a brother. Her mother was sweet, very protective and very strict. She had dark skin, blue eyes, brown hair and named Kazumi Tatewaki, Harada. Suki's father was gentle, very protective and a hardworking man. He was also white skinned, green eyed, and brown haired. He was named Kugamoro Tatewaki. Ishuzo Tatewaki was Suki's 10-year-old sister. She was white, blue eyed, brown haired, and a pain in the butt. Kambei Tatewaki was Suki's older brother. He was 19, dark skinned, green eyed, brown haired and also a pain in the butt.

Suki and Kambei often exploded into arguments for things that couldn't be proven right. Yet the most favorite subject for Kambei to argue about was Suki being a "nerd". Suki always was the winner; for she always pointed out that the highest grade her brother had ever had was a 20. When this was brought up, Kambei would back up and no more was said. It didn't matter how much the tactic was used, it never failed.

Suki was the one that really outstanded from the rest of her family. And no wonder; nobody could figure where the heck had she gotten the black hair and purple eyes; for all the people knew, she was supposed to have either blue or green eyes and brown hair… Unless she was adopted. But she wasn't.

That specific day, she was training Odeon for the Championship of BeyBlading that was supposed to take place next morning at the BBA stadium. The whole country was going to see it on TV, and Suki wanted to give a good impression. Suki's father always encouraged her to train to be the best. Her mother on the other hand, was more on the educational side. Suki was in neither; she thought that both were pointless. However, she did her best to please her parents. So much that she had earned the title of a "hard-to-beat-opponent" at beyblading, and the lowest grade she had ever gotten was a 90.

"Let it rip," she whispered, and tugged at the launching gun making Odeon's physical body spin. In a matter of seconds, Odeon's spiritual self came out and flew majestically in the sky. "Odeon, Dragon's Breath." Ordered Suki. The phoenix opened her golden beak, aimed at a tree and fired. The fireball crashed into the rock wall and vanished.

"Odeon, you were supposed to hit the tree, not the wall." Suki said.

"I tried. But its hard to hit a target when I'm moving around" complained the phoenix.

"That's what the practiceis for," said Suki. "Tomorrow we must give our best, Odeon."

The Phoenix nodded and threw another fireball through her beak. This time, she hit the tree. "Good job, Odeon! Keep it up!"

The phoenix nodded and kept practicing. "Practice makes perfect," thought Suki as she watched Odeon fireballs of flames one after another.

"Nobody will beat us," she thought as she went to bed. "There's no match for us." She closed her eyes. Little did she know that the next day, she was about to meet the person who would actually give a good battle to remember.
