Anyways...I was walking home from picking my sister up from a friend's house and was thinking of stuff when I came up with this idea. So don't flame me if this is already taken..I didn't know...

Chapter One-Getting stuck...in an elevator

Kai stood in the middle of the crowded room, looking from side to side, trying to find someone familiar. This was the main reason why he hated to come to these kinds of things. He always got lost. The unsurprising thing was that he didn't really care. I mean, what kind of person would want to be in the same room with Tyson?

Kai sighed. Still it would be nice to be in sight of a familiar face. Someone that he could glare at atleast. Kai couldn't help but hear Rei's voice and instantly turned in the direction of it. Rei wasn't so bad. Rei was actually a pretty nice guy, that if Kai wasn't afraid of letting his defenses down, Kai would actually like as a friend. However, Kai wasn't into revealing too much about himself, so he just let it past and made his way towards the sound of Rei's voice.

Rei's voice towered over the crowd around him. "I challange you to a match than. We'll see who has the better bitbeast."

Kai elbowed his way through the crowd, muttering a small 'sorry' here and there but too soft for anyone to actually hear. Eventually Kai made it to the front of the crowd and saw that Rei was addressing Tala. Kai rolled his eyes, this was going to be a short fight.

Rei saw Kai standing there and beamed, going over and pulling Kai into the center. "And Kai's going to be my partner."

Krys stood against the wall, her eyes closed, her head bent down and her light purple hair falling over her face, keeping the onlooker from seeing her. Krys liked to stand this way, it made her look mysterious, which meant that no one would know what to expect from her, which of course was an advantage all to itself.

Krys could hear the small commotion going on nearby. Some big star, punk beyblader thought that he could handle the big boys or something equally stupid. Krys hated those scenes, it made the good beybladers look bad and anyone that made Krys Ravens look bad was in for a tough ride.

Krys heard her friends, Macy and Hannah also talk out, and Krys gave an inside groan. This meant that Macy and Hannah were going to get involved. And if Macy was going to get involved, soon Krys was going to have to get involved, or lose a friend. Stupid Macy who always has to stick her foot in her mouth.

Krys heard another voice, this one masculine and felt her knees become weak. That voice she'd know anywhere. That was the voice of Kai Hiwatari, the famous beyblader. He was the best and Krys had the privledge of knowing him personally when they were younger. He probably didn't remember her now but Krys would never forget him. He had given her her first kiss when she was only eleven and Krys could still taste it. Of course, she had found out later that he had been doing so, only on his grandfather's orders and that little piece of information, nearly broke her heart.

Pushing that aside, Krys opened her eyes, stretched and walked over to the crowd, pushing aside anyone that dared to be in her way. Most people glared at her but she didn't care. It wasn't like they could do anything about it. Krys put a hand on Macy's shoulder, her full five foot, nine inches frame backing Macy. "Is there a problem?"

"Is there a problem?" The purple-haired, green eyed girl asked them.

Problem? There was a problem, a big one. HER! What kind of person, comes pushing their way through a ground to back up two bitches? Probably another one. That was the way it always did seem to work. Oh well, the sooner he took out these three, the sooner he could be on the way to his home, and that just couldn't happen soon enough.

Raye watched from another table, trying not to start laughing. Only Krys would go and save those two idiots. Personally, Raye thought that those two deserved everything that happened to them. No one could be dense enough to go and call Rei Kon a coward and think that no one was going to punch them for it. Then again, looking at Macy and Hannah, maybe there was.

Raye respected Rei, and it wasn't just because their names were the same. It was because he was a good guy and he was always trying to keep the team together, working cooperatively, and that was Raye's main focus in life too. That was why she would have to get up in a few seconds to keep Krys from punching Rei in the groin, and trust us Krys would do that!

Raye could hear Rei say something, and when she listened closer, she heard that it was a challange for the girls. Raye got up and made her way into the crowd, there was no way those three were going to go up against Bryan and Tala without her. No way on earth.

"NO FIGHTING!" The guy in charge of everything commanded, holding Tala by the ear.

This guy had about five seconds to let go of Tala's ear or Tala was going to explode. He had been insulted by Rei, than by some girl, than by some other girl and now by this guy. Why in the hell did this sort of thing always happen to him? Couldn't Karma go and find some other person to bug for awhile?

"I want you all out of this place NOW!" The guy continued, yelling right in Tala's ear. Bryan could see that Tala was close to exploding so he took Tala's hand and dragged him out, Kai, Rei and the girls following.

"Where do you think you're going?" Tala asked the girls as they stood in front of the elevator.

"We're waiting for the elevator you dodo brain." The tallest one said.

"That's nice but we're going in it." Tala said, glaring at her.

The girl turned to face Tala, trying to use her size to scare him. "Oh, and how exactly are you going to stop us?"

Tala glared, which made Rei sigh. "Listen, I know we don't all get along that well but could we at least stop it for a while, we can all go in the elevator at the same time and once we get down to the lobby, we can all go our separate ways."

The girls, Tala, Kai and Bryan all nodded in agreement. Kai pressed the button for the elevator, it came and they all stepped in and then that tall girl pressed the 'lobby' button. It was all going smoothly until...

The lights went out and the elevator stopped, throwing everyone into one wall. There was a loud beep and the emergency lights came on. Hannah took a deep breath and tried not to think of the fact that she was stuck in an elevator..a very small elevator.

"SHIT!" Kai said as he stood up. "This is NOT supposed to happen. We're supposed to get our asses down to the lobby, out the door and then whatever wants to happen can happen. I am NOT being stuck with a bunch of lunatics in an elevator."

Hannah continued to take deep breaths, hoping that someone else would talk so that she could focus on their voice and not be as aware of where she was. She was relieved when Krys began talking. "Yah! Well, we don't really want to be in here with you either Kai Hiwatari. You are such a jerk! Don't you see that Hannah here is claustrophobic?"

Hannah whimpered when someone grabbed her hand. Wherever Kai was, he kicked something and then grunted. "What do I care?"

"Obviously you don't." Krys said and it sounded like she was right on the edge of her limitations.

"Guys.." Hannah managed to get out. "Please stop it."

The hand gripping hers squeezed harder and Hannah attempted to squeeze back but couldn't. It was too close in here.

"Listen, Hannah's your name right, I'm going to push the emergency button and someone will be here in a minute. All right? Can you last that long?" The voice was from Rei this time and Hannah nodded slightly to let everyone know that she was still alright.

There was a loud shattering sound that echoed all across the elevator, everyone threw their hands over their ears to block out the noise but to no prevail. Hannah whimpered and tucked herself into a ball in the corner. Rei saw her and went and gave her a hug and cuddled with her, hoping to bring her some comfort. "Shhh, it'll be alright."

Hannah nodded silently and closed her eyes, not wanting to see anymore.

Rei didn't know why he was holding this girl that he barely knew but that didn't really matter, no one really cared about it, they all thought that he was just trying to make her feel better, which was what he was doing...right? Rei didn't really know anymore and that made him feel uncomfortable. However, he couldn't let his own emotions get in the way, this girl needed comfort and Rei was the only one in this whole elevator who was willing to give it to her.

Rei looked up at the purple-haired girl and smiled. "So, what's your name?"

The girl smiled. "I guess we haven't really introduced ourselves, huh?" She motioned to a girl in the back that was the reason they were kicked out in the first place, this girl had long black hair and piercing red eyes. "This is Macy."

"How ya do?" Macy said cooly.

The girl then motioned to the girl in the other corner, who had brown hair that fell to her waist smoothly. "That's Raye." Rei smiled, it was kind of ironic that he was in an elevator with someone who shared his name. "And you've already met Hannah. Oh and by the way, my name's Krys."

"It's nice to met you Krys. I'm Rei, that's Kai with the blue hair, Tala with the red and the last guy's Bryan." Rei said and then smoothed Hannah's hair.

"It's nice to met you too." Krys said and then leaned against the wall, obviously blocking everyone else out. Rei sighed and watched Kai do the same.
