Chapter 2 ~Can't wait to see Alice
Somewhere in the dark night sky a plane was on its way to Moscow to visit Alice. On board was Dan and rest the gang.
"I can't wait to see Alice again, It's been so long since we seen her" Runo said happily thinking of her sister-like friend.
"Yeah we haven't seen her since we saved Vestroia" Marucho said smiling too. Alice was like a big sister to everyone, since she was the oldest of the brawlers, she cared for everyone like they were her own little brothers and sisters that she never had.
Marucho looked over at Runo who was fiddling with something.
"Hey what's that Runo?" He asked her.
"It's a friendship bracelet I'm making for Alice's birthday, see" She said holding up a not compete beautiful bracelet. The beads were gold with pink, Purple Heart shaped gems through it and diamond gems. The colours sparkled in the sun light and sent rainbow beams everywhere around the room.
"Wow it's beautiful" they all said staring at the different colours beaming around the room...
"She's going to love it" Julie said hypnotised by the beautiful bracelet.
"Wow Alice is so lucky to have you as a best friend" Dan said, wishing Shun will be more like Runo.
"Thanks Dan" She said, smiling at him. Then Dan looked over to where Shun was and gave him a "Why can't you be more like her" look. Shun just grinned and looked away.
"Can't wait till Alice's Birthday in two weeks time" Julie gushed. Throwing her hands in the air in excitement.
"Me two this is going to be a birthday she'll never forget" Marucho cried out.
Shun stared out the window watching big, white fluffy clouds pass by. He was thinking of Alice.
Shun liked Alice...well more like he loves Alice but is too shy to tell her how he feels for her.
Alice too had feelings for Shun but she couldn't tell him how she feels.
"Hey wonder if we'll meet Alice's parents, we have never seen or met them yet" Runo asked thinking a little.
"Yeah I bet her parents are so cool, I can't wait to meet them" Julie gushed as she too thought of Alice's parents.
"Wounder why Alice hasn't mentioned them whenever we talked about our parents? We have only met her grandfather" Marucho asked in a daze.
"Don't know well maybe they have been travelling or something and Alice hasn't seen them for a while?" Dan answered, looking at Runo.
'Mmmm, wonder why she doesn't talk about them?' Runo thought.
Just then all the Bakugan rolled in there sphere shape form and jumped up onto the table.
"Hey where did you all go?" Dan asked them.
"We were in the spare room talking that's all" Drago replied.
"Oooo what we're use talking about?" Julie asked them all.
"Nothing much, well nothing that will interest you anyway" Tiggerera said jumping up on Runo's shoulder.
"Yeah mind your own business" Preyas said, trying to make another convosation.
"Ok, ok keep your skin on" Dan said, steadying him.
"So what have you talking about?" Gorom asked.
"Nothing" Runo said, annoyed.
"Come on" preyas said, trying to convince them to spill.
"No you wouldn't tell us what you were talking about so we won't tell you" Runo protested.
"Fine do whatever you want we'll find out tho" Preyas said, calming down.
Everyone rolled their eyes and laughed.

Meanwhile, Alice was enjoying roasting marshmallows over a fire in a Moscow forest. Alice smiled as she stared at the cooking marshmallow in the blazing fire. Hydranoid was sitting on a bag nearby eating his own marshmallow and humming softly.
"So Alice are you excited for your birthday?" Michael asked her.
"Yeah...I guess" Alice said softly, facing the ground.
"What's wrong?" Michael asked her as he saw her look away.
"It's nothing" She said quickly to cover up her tears that started streaming down her face.
Michael placed an arm around her and held her close. Alice wrapped her arms around him and sobbed quietly.
"You want your mum and dad don't you?" He asked.
Alice nodded and started crying louder. Michael put an arm around her head and stroked her hair
"I miss them too" He said breaking the silence and looking up at the sky and staring at the stars.
"But remember they will always be there for you and help you through life" He tried to make her smile.
"I know" Alice said, looking up and faintly smiled at her grandfather. He smiled back and then they both looked up at the beautiful night sky. A shooting star flew gracefully by and an array of light followed it.
"I wish they were still with us" Alice said dreamily. Michael smiled and looked at her cheerfully.
"You know you are a splitting image of her"
"Really?"
"Yep and you have the same personality as her too" he smiled
Alice smiled and hugged him and they both looked back in the sky again as a bunch of stars shone in the dark black sky.
'If only they were here now'
