Chapter Three

Alexx dived to the floor, covering her head in combat fashion as she saw the orbs falling in her direction. Then she heard the familiar popping of balloons, and the splashing of water as they connected with her body. The ice cubes felt like rubber bullets pelting her skin as they came free. She shivered as the air around her changed to freezing. Mello laughed loudly. She slowly stood up, glaring through curling bangs.

"Mello, I am going to make you suffer." Her voice was light and sweet, not what he was expecting, He looked at her, only to notice the sweet look on her face, only the glint in her eyes betrayed her face. "And you will never see it coming..."

She giggled as she rubbed her arms, trying to restore the warmth that was robbed by the doomed blonde. She sighed and watched Mello run. How was she going to repay the blonde? Get him so good, he will fear for his very life every time he heard her name? Make him fear anything she does? She sighed and fell to the floor as her legs gave from under her. "Damn it. Haven't even been here for two hours and I already have to resort to old habits again. Why is life so unfair, Near?"

Near stared at the soaking wet female in front of him. She was handling this well. But the look in her eye said otherwise. She wasn't complaining, no. She was planning. "Well, Miss. I will help you with Mello." He grabbed a few fallen cards and put them in a deck slowly. He was rather tired of Mello's actions. Or the fact he always was on the receiving end of his pranks.

"Eh? Near you wanna help?" She said with a blank face. "You might get into some big trouble. Like, arrested trouble." She slammed her wrists together as if they where handcuffed to show her point.

"Miss Alexx, Mello blew up a church last week." Near looked up at Alexx's face. Blank. "I highly doubt we will be arrested for pulling a few pranks. Maybe scolded, but that is the worst."

Alexx smiled as her plan grew. She rose from the floor and walked over to Near. She stood over the boy with her hand held out. "Come to my office, Near. I need to get supplies. And make a quick pit stop."

Near grabbed her hand and was pulled up from the floor. "Office?"

Matt held onto the snake, petting its two heads. For some reason, he didn't want to give it back. It was interesting. Despite all of Mello's information on snakes, it was rather harmless. It was not venomous, nor was it violent. If anything, it was like a kitten. Likes to be petted, cuddle, and hissed when annoyed. "Interesting." He held the snake in front of his face, his goggles over his eyes, just in case the snake did decide to bite. "They work in harmony. It must be rather difficult to be attached to your brother." He then petted the web of scales where the two heads joined.

"MATT!" Matt sighed as a blur of blonde turned the corner into the common room where the red head was hiding. "Matt! Where the fuck are ya! We need to plan somethi-"

Matt sighed and wrapped the snake around his neck. "What now, Mello?"

Mello stared at the creature on his best friend's neck. "What the hell?"

Matt blinked under his goggles. "Wanna hold it?" He pointed at the snake.

"HELL NO! That thing belongs to the bitch, doesn't it?" Mello crossed his arms with a smile. "I say kill it, Matt."

Matt stared at Mello as if he was the one with two heads. "No."

Mello stared. Did he just hear what he thought he heard. "Excuse me?" He stared at Matt in disbelief.

"I said no. What did Alexx ever do to you? I bet the water balloons I saw you with earlier where used on her. She's a nice girl, Mello. Leave her alone," He got up from the couch where he sat and looked Mello in the eyes. "Quit being such an ass all the time."

Mello blinked. "What the hell, Matt. I thought you were my friend. Now, are you going to help me or not?'

"If it involves Alexx, no." Matt looked around the room, planning a route to escape if Mello got to mad at him. "Have you seen her?"

Mello stared at Matt. "She's in the boys wing." He clinched his fist and gritted his teeth. He was going to kill her. Turning Matt against him, she was going to pay.

Near stared at the plain room. "Um, Alexx?" He shifted in doorway. "Boy's are not allowed in the girl's wing." He curled a piece of his silver hair around his finger.

Alexx opened the single bag on the white bed. Clothes spilled out, along with chocolate bars and cookies. "Near, you are gonna be breaking a lot of rules. Now, come here." She picked up a chocolate bar, unwrapped it, and examined the white wrapper under the foil. "Horse laxative... Perfect."

Near walked into the blinding room, noting the emptiness. "Miss Alexx, where are your belongings?" He glanced into the empty closet.

She turned to face him. "This is all of my stuff." She pointed over her shoulder at the ripped bag. "I wasn't able to bring everything. Just Inu and Neko, and some clothes." She smiled at him.

She shoved the laxative in his hands. "Hold this, don't eat it. I'm going to go change." With that said, she grabbed a black hoodie, a black t-shirt, and some old dark blue jeans from the pile that formed on her bed. She wondered off into her bathroom and closed the door.

Near stared at the bar in his hands. What could she be planning? He looked around. Wait, where does she keep her snake?

"Nate? What are you doing in Miss Soel's room?" Roger asked with a glass cage in hand. Roger glanced at the clothes strewn on the white bed. Then back at Near holding the 'chocolate'. Roger smiled.

"She brought me here." He said staring back at Roger. "She's changing right now."

Alexx stuck her head out the bathroom door to see Roger holding the cage. "Oh, Mister. Put that down next to the bed." She wondered out and grabbed Near's hand. "Come on, to the kitchen!" She dragged the boy past Roger who watched with interest. He placed the cage down and glanced around the room. It was so plain. Maybe she will decorate it like the rest.

Alexx smiled as she mixed the brownie mix. "Near, hand me the candy bars." Near did has he was told. He grabbed the bag of crushed Kit-Kat's, Butterfingers, Hersey's bar, and Reese's. He handed it to the girl who dumped it in. "Okay, now the two pans." She folded the bits of candy into the batter as she waited for Near to retrieve the pans. She dipped her finger into the batter, and thought. "Marshmallows. It needs marshmallows. Near..."

Near came back with the two silver pans and reached under the counter to retrieve a bag of bite size marshmallows. "What are the brownies for, Miss Alex?" He asked handing the bag to her.

She snatched the bag away and tore it open with her teeth. She chuckled at Near as she dumped half the bag into the mix. "Step one of getting Mello back." She dropped the bag and picked up the laxative that laid next to her on the counter. "He likes chocolate, no? Then he can not refuse my diabetes in a pan." She slammed the bar hard against the counter, letting it break up in pieces. She repeated this motion until the pieces where more like crumbs. "I don't like to start out revenge to strongly, got to do it quietly, like a ninja." She poor half of the batter into a pan and put five marshmallows on top. Then she dumped the laxative crumbs into the rest of the batter and stirred it.

Near didn't think it would work. "Put that pan in the oven." Alexx said pointing to the non-laxative brownies. She was finishing Mello's brownies. "Near, what is Mello? He's not British is he?"

Near picked up the pan and opened the oven. He was greeted by a rush of hot air in his face. "He's Russian, I believe."

"Hm." Alexx turned to hand Near the other pan, "He needs a hug." She handed over the pan and planned step two in her revenge. "Near, can you get me a copy of the rule book and punishments?"

Near looked up at her as he closed the oven door. "Yes, why?"

"I just need to check something..." Alexx trailed off as went back to planning.

Matt walked down the halls, searching for the snake's owner. He was hit by the smell of home-made brownies halfway to L's office. He stopped to sniff the air, curious has to who would be cooking, he followed his nose to the kitchen. He stopped in the black arch way and stared at Alexx. She had Near cutting brownies. "Careful, Near. Gently pull the knife. If you pull it to quickly, the brownies will crumble." She said eating a piece from a pan next to her.

Near did as he was told. "Are you sure this is going to work?" He asked removing a piece to a black glass plate. He started stacking them in a chocolate pyramid. "He's not one to fall for things like this." He finished stacking the brownies and faced Alexx.

She licked her fingers before dusting imaginary dirt from her hands. "I'm sure, you have to be positive about what your doing. Think of this as a puzzle, Near. Each piece of the plan has to go in its place, or it will never be finished."

She giggled as Near stared, trying to convert her plan into a puzzle. "I understand."

Alexx looked towards the doorway to see Matt staring at them. "Matt, want some brownies? I just made them. I was hoping Mello would come too. I wanted to apologize for what ever I did to upset him..." She casted her brown eyes to the floor, her lips quivering. "So I made him a pan of brownies just for him. But I don't think he'll take them from me." She blinked rapidly, then forced a smile.

Matt, noticing her change in clothes and her now curled bangs, knew that Mello had in fact bombed her. "Sure." He walked over to the pan of brownies and picked one up. Melted chocolate oozed out in spots, with melted marshmallows mixed in. The top of the brownie was crunchy, with the middle just the right chewiness. It was a heaven. "Oh, here." He shoved the snake from his neck, into her hands. The two heads pulled away from each other as they tried to find a warm spot to curl up against again.

He glanced at the plate of brownies, then at the forced smile on Alexx's face. "If you want, I'll take them to Mello." Alexx eye lit up and she hugged the boy.

"You will? Oh, your the best! Mello is so lucky to have a friend like you!" She begin to jump up and down. She let Matt go and shoved the plate in his arms. "Don't tell him their from me though. Not until he eats them all. Oh, and don't eat them. Me and Near made more if you want another."

Matt nodded his head. "Why don't you want him to know they're from you?"

Alexx sighed. "He might throw them away. I don't know why, but he hates me..." The fire in her eyes died, and the forced smile appeared again. "So don't tell him, okay?"

'She's really good at lying.' Near thought watching the whole display. He had knelled down on the floor, twirling a lock of his hair, learning all of Alexx's tale-tell signs. There were hardly any to give her away. But one was clear: she could not look Matt in the eye. Easy enough to spot.

Matt nodded again before turning away. "Um, Alexx.."

Alexx smiled. "Yeah, Matty?" She gave him a pet name. Near almost laughed.

"Those brownies were really good." With that said, he fled the room to deliver the poisoned sweets to an unsuspecting blonde. Alexx stared at the door with a genuine smile.

"He like my brownies." She reached toward the half full pan and grabbed another. "Try one Near, please?" She turned to face the poor albino.

"No thank you, Miss."

"Near. Eat it. Now." She took a step towards the boy. "It's not poisoned."

"How do I know?"

Alexx smiled wickedly. "Near, you will eat the brownie." She jumped towards the boy, knocking them both to the floor. She grabbed his wrists and pinned them over his head. "Say ah!" She shoved the brownie into Near's mouth as he opened it to tell her to get off, muting any protest he would give. He stopped moving as the combination of the brownie and the many flavors mixed in hit his tongue.

"Near?" Alexx stared as the albino closed his eyes. Then he begin to chew. She sighed, thankful he didn't choke on it.

"It is good." Near said after swallowing the sweet. "Will you release me now?"

Alexx blushed a deep crimson as she climbed off him.

Mello stared at Matt, then down at the temptation in the red head hands. "What are those?" He said inhaling the chocolate aroma lifting off the sweets. His mouth watered against his will.

"Brownies. Some girl who has a crush on you wanted me to give them to you. She was afraid you wouldn't accept them from her." Matt said dully, It wasn't a complete lie. Matt forced the plate into the blonde's hands. "They smell really good."

Mello grinned down at the chocolate. "Well, they are for me. Go get something from the kitchen if your hungry." He shoved a one of the brownies into his mouth, letting Matt know they were in fact, delicious. He actually moaned as he tasted his favorite chocolate bar melted into the brownies. "Oh my fucking god. The bitch who made these must be a real fucking good cook..."

Matt smiled as Mello continued to inhale the pieces of heaven. As Mello finished the last one, he looked Matt in the eye. "Who gave these to you?"

"Alexx."

Mello dropped the glass plate onto the floor. It shatter as the fragile platter connected with the wooden planks. "Alexx! She probably poisoned them! She said she was going to get me back." Mello clenched at his stomach, waiting to die. Then his stomach rumbled loudly. Followed by painful cramps. "OUT OF MY WAY!" He shoved Matt to the side as he ran towards his room. Trying to get to his bathroom in time. He ran down the hallway, reaching the blue carpet of the boys' wing.

Alexx stared at the rule book. Looking at the most extreme punishments. An evil smile creep onto her face as she highlighted a paragraph. "Oh, this is going to be fun..." She tucked the book into her hoodie pocket and flipped onto her stomach as she flopped onto her bed. "Hey, Neko, Inu? You think I'm not going to far, right?"

The simese snake watched a cricket jump around the glass cage. Then it lashed out at Inu caught it in its mouth. Alexx giggled to herself as she finished the last details of step two.
