! Alexis slowly opened her eyes, the sun had started to go down and illuminated the small room she was in with bright orange. An IV line protruded from a vein in her arm. She felt immense pain on her back and tried to sit up. She winced as she did this.

"Hello…?" Her voice was rough and raspy.

"Alexis?" A head popped in from the doorway.

"Well hello dear." A tall woman walked into the room. Her brown wavy hair fell down to her waist as she smiled and adjusted her glasses.

"I'm Nurse Monica. How do you feel?" She pulled up a stool next to the bed Alexis was in.

"Okay."

Nurse Monica grabbed a clipboard and scribbled something on the paper.

"Do you know where you are?"

Alexis looked around the room and nodded. "Nurse's office."

"That's right dear. Do you know how you got here?"

Alexis nodded again. She knew EXACTLY how she got there.

"Nurse Mon-! Well hello! Look who's awake!" Lord Death spoke cheerily and went over to her bedside.

"Lord Death, she just woke up." Nurse Monica looked up at Lord Death expectantly.

"Oh did she? Well that's great! How are you feeling Alexis? You gave us all quite a scare you know!"

Alexis nodded and looked down.

Seeing this, Nurse Monica felt a pang of sympathy for this girl. She had been attacked by some raging animal! She must be scared to death! Nurse Monica grabbed Alexis's hand and smiled as Alexis looked up.

"How long was I asleep?"

"For about 4 days! Not long!" Lord Death looked at Nurse Monica and something passed between them that Alexis just couldn't figure out. Abruptly Nurse Monica stood up.

"I'll be back in a little bit! You two talk, I'll be right back." In an instant she was out the room.

"So, Alexis, do you happen to remember what happened?"

"Well… a giant black cat chased me in the forest when I went on a walk. It looked sort of like a panther." Alexis informed, her voice starting to sound the same as it did before.

"A panther?" His voice sounded as if he knew what a panther was, but asked anyway.

Not catching this, Alexis went on. "I mean it was a big black catlike animal… except its teeth were sharp and it was huge. Its eyes were red… and I've never seen anything like it."

Lord Death stayed quiet for a moment then spoke. "Well I'm glad you're feeling better! But I must go! I have a meeting to go to! I'll come back later to check on you!" He left in somewhat of a haste.

She nodded as he left and mentally scolded herself for saying panther. She did wish that somehow… someone would know what Earth is. Many a day she had contemplated and planned on telling someone of her true origin but her plans always fell short. She told herself that she didn't tell them because of fear of rejection and unneeded as well as unwanted media. Half of what she told herself was true. She was afraid that they would reject her. Be everything but understanding. They would call her crazy and isolate her, not as if she isn't already isolated enough.

Alexis slowly got out of bed and pulled the IV line out of her arm. She looked up at the laughing moon which illuminated the well named Death City. She then looked down, focusing on a moving object. She didn't think much of it until she saw something else. She saw a figure jumping from rooftop to rooftop; another figure floated after them quickly. It took her only seconds to realize that the first moving figure was Maka and Soul on Soul's motorcycle. The figure jumping from rooftop to rooftop was BlackStar and Tsubaki in weapon form! And the figure floating after them was Kidd standing on his skateboard with Liz and Patty in weapon form!

Alexis felt anger surge through her as she narrowed her eyes and grinded her teeth, a habit that she does when she's angry. It just wasn't fair. Why were they happy and going home to enjoy each other's company when I'm cooped up in this room with no one to go home to. Why do THEY get to have family when I have to one?

"It's not fair is it?"

Alexis jumped and turned around. A tall woman in a long red night dress stood next to her bed. Her black high heel shoes must've been three inches tall. Her black hair fell beautifully over her shoulders down the length of her back. She was stunning.

"Who are you and why are you in here?" Alexis asked, unfazed.

The woman smiled, revealing sharp white teeth.

Alexis gasped. "You're the beast that tried to kill me!"

"No ma'am. If I wanted to kill you, I would have."

Alexis was not impressed. "What are you doing here?"

"It's not fair is it?" She repeated, sounding more devilish.

Alexis ignored her and looked out the window at the three meisters and four weapons below.

"I know how you feel dear. The feeling of betrayal, loss, pain, both physical and emotional. I know that feeling my dear. You are not alone." The woman spoke with genuine sincerity.

"Why did you hurt me?"

"Because I wanted to test your strength, mentally, emotionally… physically."

Alexis turned back to look at the woman but didn't say anything.

The woman frowned and walked over to Alexis, her heels clicking against the linoleum floor. She placed two manicured hands on Alexis's shoulders. "Come with me. Together, we can get revenge on the one's that hurt us."

Alexis looked into the woman's deep brown eyes; a smile crawled up her lips. "I would love to."

The woman smiled and with a snap of her fingers, they were gone.

Now I know this story is a bit oc centered, but Hey! At least she doesn't get paired with anyone! Don't worry though… Kidd does get to play a sort of role in this. Anywho! I hope you enjoyed this chapter!
