Replies to guest reviewers:

Allekinz001: Well that's good to know lol, or else I would've re-edited that chapter. Thanks, that took a load off of my shoulders.

Guest 2.0: Yes, yay! And you're very welcome, I do this for you guys (maybe me too) :)

Guest: I updated, thank you. I'm glad you think it's so good!

Guest12345: You really think so? And yeah there are only about three good one's, maybe even four, that I've read. I remember one was soooo good, but was abandoned after like the sixth chapter :(. It's kinda what inspired me to do this, I guess I could almost say :)

Jinkglow17690: You're awesome for calling me awesome, that's pretty much all.

Chapter Ten

Girls and Outings

"And he just totally flaked on me, can you believe that?!" Dana exclaimed, gripping a napkin that was on the table. Ada sighed.

"Well, I'm sure he had a good excuse?" she said, unsure of what she was saying. Dana shrugged.

"It's always the same excuse, that's the point." she huffed, crossing her arms. "I'm starting to think that sometimes the old man doesn't even need him, like he's just using him an excuse to not spend time with me or something. You know?" she explained, Max and Ada both shrugging as a response.

Dana had called Max, who in turn called Ada, asking for a sort of 'girls day'. Just as a way to get her mind off of things, aka Terry. And, as of right now, the three girls were sitting in a food court at the Mall.

"Didn't you want to get your mind off of Terry?" Max asked, but she knew Dana couldn't help it. She was just one of those people who expressed how they felt, the girl was terrible when it came to hiding how peeved she was.

Dana sighed, resting a hand on her cheek as she leaned on the table. "Yeah, I know ... but I guess I can't help it." She could feel her anger slowly dissolve into sadness, "I mean, maybe he isn't lying to me ... but I still feel like there's more to his job than what he says. You know?"

After hearing this, Max snorted a little. Trying to hold back a little laugh, making Ada raise an eyebrow as she sipped her drink.

"What are you laughing about?" she questioned, and Max held up a hand.

"Nothing ... I was just ... thinking of something funny." she said, slowly calming down. Ada found it strange how she just so happened to 'think of something funny' after what Dana said.

"You sure you don't have something to tell us?" she asked, and Max immediately turned serious.

"No, of course not." she said, taking Ada's drink from her hand. Ada shouting a 'hey' in protest. "If I really did, I would've told you." she admitted, then took a sip. Ada rolled her eyes, then smiled.

"Yeah, you're right, cause we all know how much you love to talk. I should've guess." she said, snatching her drink back. Max giving her a playful glare.

"You're buying me one of those later, it's pretty good." she said, then Ada shrugged.

"If it keeps you from touching mine? Definitely,"

Dana sighed. "... I'm pretty bored ..." she trailed, resting her head in her arms.

"Well, there's not much to do during the day. Is there?" Max asked, and there honestly wasn't. All of the cool places didn't open until nighttime, which left a disappointing day life if you were looking for something fun to do.

"How about we go shopping?" Ada suggested.

"My dad only gave me like, fifty credits when I left the house." Dana said. "And I already spent like, five on the food."

"You're pop actually gave you that much?" Max asked, then scoffed. "Lucky, my folks gave me what was in their pockets." she said, crossing her arms, then looked at Ada. "What about you?"

"Are you kidding? I have a job Max, I don't need to rely on my parents for money." she said, then Max smirked.

"I forgot you were 'miss independent', sometimes I'm surprised you don't live on your own house Ada." Max joked, Ada giving an awkward laugh in response.

"Yeah, me too sometimes ..." she replied, then all was silent between the three. Their minds going to different subjects. Dana thinking about what Terry may be doing, Max thinking about the new vileness in town, and Ada about her 'job'. After a while, Ada finally sighed.

"Not to be a dreg or anything, but this 'girls day out' is getting pretty boring." she said, then Max and Dana groaned.

"Yeah, we know, but there's nothing to do ..." Dana said. Then they thought, what could we do?

"... How about the arcade?" Max suggested.

"We aren't kids Max." Dana said as she messed with a strand of her hair.

"I think it's a nice idea," Ada piped. "We don't have much option."

"But I've never played a game a day in my life!" she admitted, then Max grabbed her arm as she stood.

"Now's as good a time as any to start, isn't it?" she asked, and Ada stood as she finished the last of her drink.

Dana rolled her eyes and picked up her purse, then smiled. "Fine, whatever, but this better be fun!"

"It will be," Ada said, then the trio threw away all there trash and went on their way to the nearest game center.

As they stepped inside Arcadez, they were met with a bigger majority of teens than children. Max, at the sight, turned to Dana with a smug look.

"What were you saying? About arcades being for kids?" She laughed when Dana stuck her tongue out at her.

"Shut up," she said, then walked further inside. Ada and Max following behind trying to hold in laughs. Dana walked up to one that was currently not being used and examined it, as if it were something completely foreign to her. "What's this one?"

"This is one of those virtual reality fighter simulations." Ada said, picking up one of the helmets.

"Huh?" Dana asked, and Ada shrugged.

"It's just a fighting game." she said, and Dana nodded.

"Thank you for saying it in English." she joked, making Ada smirk.

"When the game starts, bystanders can watch from that big screen up there." she said, pointing up to a giant flat screen that was hanging above the game. It was currently blank, as no one had played for some time.

Dana nodded again, then crossed her arms. "Well, I'm not exactly the 'brawler' type. I'll just watch you and Max play, scrapper." She smirked, calling Ada scrapper on account of her bruised face. The mark seemed to have gotten just a tad darker since yesterday.

"Whatever, prissy." she said, then laughed when Dana stuck her tongue out at her just as she did to Max.

Max picked up the other helmet and sat it on her head. "You ready to get your ass handed to you?" she asked as Ada turned on the game. Ada sat her helmet onto her head and scoffed.

"I should be asking you that, shouldn't I?" By the time, the game was finally over. People had gathered to watch the two duke, cheering when Ada came out the victor.

"Wow, you're good. Where'd you learn to fight like that?" Max questioned, Ada shrugging as a response.

"Let's just say that I know someone who knows some good moves." Max smiled and patted her shoulder.

"Well you'll have to tell her to give me some lessons sometime, you're agile and graceful."

"Yeah." Dana piped, draping her arm around Ada's shoulders. "Almost like a cat or something." Ada smirked at the two.

"Really? You don't say ..."

Author's Note: Oh my god this chapter was so bad! Lol you guys may not think so, but this chapter sucked to me. Another filler, sorry. I wouldn't be surprised if one of you guys finally snapped and said, "Get to the damn point already!" or something!

I'm surprised by all the positive feedback I've gotten so far, the only flame I ever got was from some anonymous person. Lol she basically told me off about there already being a Catwoman in the comics and Ada being a carbon copy of Selina and Terry.

Anyway, even though I didn't, I hope you liked this chapter. You guys waited a while for this, so I hope I didn't disappoint.

Thanks for reading, please review!
