   Chapter 2
I am going to post the second chapter now. And I am up to Chapter 14 now. I'd love it you commented on it. Thanks.
Here it is:


Chapter 2: Backstage
“So you’re the lucky ones eh? C’mon through.” Josh led them down a corridor and turned right. “Okay. Here are their rooms. Choose the band you wanna see, knock and go in. You can check out as many as you want to, but remember we’ll be outa here at quarter to midnight. So you’ve got about 3 hours. Oh yeah, there’ll be an all you can eat dinner in 2 hours. Have fun!” and he left.
“Yum!” Tyson said.
“Okay, I’ll see ya’s soon. I’m going to The Thuganomics. They rock and no other bands here are really that good,” Hilary said. “Anyone coming with me?”
“No way. Ming Ming is my pick,” Kenny said.
“I’ll go,” said Ray. “How ‘bout you Tyson? Max? Daichi? Kai?”
“Yeah, okay. See ya chief,” said Tyson as Kenny walked down to Ming Ming’s room.
“I’ll come,” Max said.
“Me too,” Daichi agreed.
“Suppose so,” Kai said and followed them to The Thuganomics room. Hilary knocked and entered the room, followed by the others.
“Yeah, and did you see the look on Ming Ming’s face when she saw her blade at her feet?” the blonde girl Diana asked. She laughed along with the rest.
“Oh, hi! You guys must have won the backstage passes,” Chelsea said. She was the only dark person in the group. Her curly black hair fell to her waist and she flicked it back.
“Yes, that’s us,” Hilary said. You could tell she was excited and nervous.
“C’mon Hilary, chill. We aren’t gonna hurt ya or anything like that!” Nicole said.
“How do stars like you know my name?” she asked.
“Well Hilary, we went to the same primary school ages ago. I left soon after I started, but we were, like, best buds, remember? Any way, I see you on T.V. when you watch your friends beyblade,” Nicole replied.
“Oh yeah! I never knew you were her! Wow! I used to be best friends with a famous superstar!”
“Okay Hilary, breathe, it’s no big deal,” Tyson said, once again, sarcastically.
“Yes it is. She’s like, one of the biggest star in Hollywood for crying out loud!” she shouted and started to argue with Tyson.
“Isn’t there six of you?” Max asked.
”Yup. DC went somewhere,” Eddie replied. As soon as he finished saying that, the door opened and DC came in. He walked right through Hilary and Tyson, pushing them to the ground as he went past. The funny thing that happened though was that no one said anything at all.
“So, do you guys want autographs or something?” Voke asked.
“Um, yeah, sure,” Daichi said.
“Any posters or pictures, items of clothing or something that you want signed?” Eddie asked.
“Yeah,” said Tyson. “My butt.” At this remark The Thuganomics cracked up. Everyone apart from Kai joined in.
“You are joking, right?” Chelsea asked.
“Do I look like it?”
“Not really,” Diana said. “But I’m not signing anyone’s butt!”
“Me neither,” Voke agreed.
“Can you sign my cap then?” Tyson asked hopefully.
“Yeah, sure. Just don’t ask us to sign your butt again, okay?” Nicole said as she grabbed the cap and signed it. She passed it around and everyone signed it.
“Here,” DC said and chucked the cap onto Tyson’s head. It landed perfectly on his head. “One signed cap.”
“Anything else?” Diana asked.
“Yeah, a drink would be real nice,” Daichi said.
“Don’t be rude. You can wait until the dinner,” Ray said and nudged him.
“Don’t sweat it little man! I’ll get some drinks for you all. Take a seat too,” Eddie said and left the room in search of drinks. They all sat down between the five members of The Thuganomics still leaving room for Eddie for when he came back.
“Since when did you guys beyblade? With talent like that, Nicole, you could probably beat us!” Ray asked.
“Thanks Ray. We’ve been blading since we could. On the streets, you really have to steal stuff, so most of beyblades that we had on the streets were stolen.” Nicole answered. She knew that DC could spill the beans any minute now. She didn’t really want too many people knowing one of her deepest secrets. Eddie entered the room with enough drinks for everyone. They all grabbed a glass each and drank it.
“Hey Voke,” Max said.
“Yeah?”
“Where did you get your name from?”
“It’s a street name. Some of my mates had weird names too. One was called Arvicallied. We called him Arvi for short though. The Arvicallied Ally is the place where he was left alone, so he got called that.”
“Cool,” Max said.
“Hope you don’t mind me talking for a change, but what did you mean by tell Boris you’re back?” Kai asked. Everyone was amazed because he had just spoken for the first time in front of them.
“Long story.” Nicole’s answer was short, like she didn’t want to talk about it.
“Don’t care. Talk. I can miss dinner if it takes that long.”
“Man you are eager. But I still won’t say it. It’s personal and secret, but one day you will hear it.”
“I won’t wait!” Kai said and stood up. “Anything to do with Boris concerns me! Last time I was with him was enough torture! Tell me now-“
“Shut up Kai!” Ray shouted. Kai glared at him. Then Kai took a shot at him, his fist making contact with Ray’s stomach. Ray fell and Nicole kicked him from behind him. Kai fell too. She bent down to Kai.
“You’ll know when the time is right,” she said, stood up and walked out.
