She had been here 5 years and all these years she had not even thought about Chaotic until she heard a few people talking about in the town one day. She thought to herself for a while before deciding that she'd see what it was all about.

She followed a few people as they were on their way to what they were calling the BattleDrome. She entered the building it was situated in and was taken aback a little at how clean and tidy the place was.

She kept to herself and sat down at a table on her own planning to just observe this place and then leave to never return again. She sat there and began to think about other things but was awoken from her day dreams when she heard a couple of guys bickering – one was an older guy with blond hair and pink tinted glasses which she could see pink eyes hid behind, the other one was younger and had black hair and blue eyes. She sighed at the bickering pair and tried to block them out by focusing on her music.

After a short while she felt the presence of somebody near her and so looked up to see the black haired boy from earlier on walk towards her. He smiled "hi" he said to her "hello" she replied back trying not to encourage him to speak further. "My name is Tom Majors, who may ask are you?" he asked determined to talk to the girl "Alice" she replied.

The blonde guy noticed that Tom was talking to a new person and got an idea "why don't I become friends with her so that I have another person on my side against him?" he thought to himself. He walked over to where Tom and the girl were. "you don't want to be talking to him" he exclaimed and she looked him in the eye "why?" she asked curious as to why not "he just wants to be friends with you so he can show off about having an attractive girl as his friend. He's a backstabber anyway" he replied and Alice looked back to Tom with a glare in her grey-green eyes. "No!" Tom exclaimed "I ain't like that - Klay's just lying as always"

Alice looked back to the blonde guy "your Klay?" "Yes, why?" he asked, Alice replied with "I've heard your name before, nice comments have always followed" at this he smiled and said to Tom "see, a nice guy doesn't lie now does he?" Tom sighed and thought to himself "well, she's lost to the bad guy now. I have to find a way to convince her he's the bad guy not me".

Tom walked away back to Sarah, Kaz and Peyton. He began talking about her to them and looked over to see her having a laugh with Klay, moving some of her black hair away from her face to reveal a scar. Peyton decided that he'd attempt to steal Alice away from Klay and so got up and approached the two "hey Klay, stop trying to convince people you're good just because Krystella and your little minion keep saying nice stuff about you" he said with confidence.

"Shut up Peyton" Klay replied "hey Alice, Tom really ain't a bad guy, anyone here would tell you that he's an amazing friend. I mean just look at him he screams friendly does he not?" Peyton said trying to convince her that Tom was friendly not Klay. "He does look friendly – but looks can be deceiving" she said back. A random girl spoke up at hearing the conversation "Alice, trust me here when I tell you that Klay causes trouble – you see this scar? He caused it" she said showing Alice a scar from a gash on her arm. At this Alice looked at Klay with wide eyes "you monster!" she exclaimed and got up from the table immediately.

Peyton escorted her to the table with his friends and gave up his chair so she could sit down. She smiled at his gentlemanly behaviour. "Sorry I didn't believe you Tom" Alice said "no problem – Klay commonly tries to steal people to his side". Tom told Alice about the realm of Perim and it struck to her that she knew this place but didn't quite know where she knew it from.
