ACT TEN - Behind Bubbly Exterior
The gang were hanging in the library, well not by choice. They all had something individually to be working on. Alex was working on an ethic's paper, Sam and Ethan were working on a psychology paper, Delia was working on research for her science class, Emi was studying for her German class, and Bay was working on her government paper. Bay turns the page in her text book and then sighs, she was tired. Bay looks at her cell phone, it was five o'clock in the evening. They've been in the library for about two hours working.
"Guys," Bay spoke, "Wanna stop for the day and get something to eat?"
Ethan looks up, "I could go for some food."
Delia turns to him then to Bay, "Yeah I'm down for that. I need to stop reading over theoretical cell voltage." Delia said and began to shut her text book.
Alex nods as well, "I am almost done with my paper for Dr White anyways." She said.
Emi rubs the back of her neck, "The more I stare at my German text book, I wish I understood it but its still gibberish." Emi said.
Alex turns to Emi, "Don't worry, you'll get it." Alex said.
Emi blushes, "Thanks, Alex."
Alex smiles, "You're welcome." Alex said.
Bay turns to Sam, "What about you, Sam?" Bay asks.
Sam stops writing, "Yeah, I'm pretty hungry right now." Sam placed his pencil down.
Bay smiles, "Usual spot?"
The gang nod.
The entire group gather their things and began to head out of the library. For the most part the rest of the week had been normal. With Sam's reveal of his biological identity and also the fight with the yellow knight as well as the Gold and White Ranger showing up for yet another time. The remaining of the week was pretty normal. Going to classes, part time jobs, and training.
Ethan turns to Emi, "Hey, Emi. Think you can help me with training tomorrow?"
Emi nods, "Sure thing, power buddy." Emi said.
Ethan chuckles.
Sam turns to Alex, "You feeling alright today?"
Alex nods, "Yeah."
From behind Bay frowns. She knew that Sam confided to Alex about his biological identity, she knew that those two were really close. And yet, Bay couldn't help but feel jealous. She has feelings for Sam, which is really obvious for the most part. Basically everyone in the group knew, well minus Alex and Sam. Those two seem to be in their own world when they are together.
Delia nudged her friend, "You okay?"
Bay turns and nods, "Uh huh." Bay said.
-MYSTICKNIGHTS-
Burger Palace wasn't that crazy for a Saturday night. Most college students were at parties raging from dorm parties to out on the beach parties. The college is kind of a party central college, which gives the school a bad name but it isn't the teaching staff and the dean's fault. It's the crazed students who need to get it out of their system. So the gang ordered their food and found a seat near where they had sat the first time.
Ethan took a sip of his soda and turns to the others, "So, wouldn't this make a great story?"
All eyes shift to him.
"You know, normal college students becoming superheroes but must keep their secret hidden from everyone." Ethan said.
Delia tossed a french fry at him, "No one would ever read that." She said.
Emi shakes her head, "I would. I mean, when it comes to novels I'm not to picky." Emi said.
Ethan points to Emi, "See, Emi gets it." Ethan said.
Sam turns to his pal, "Okay, I get it. Though, it might feel like every teen action based novel. There is some plot of some evil and these unlikely group of teenagers have to save the world or everyone dies. It's so unrealistic." He said.
Bay shrugs her shoulders, "I mean it seems like a cool idea." Bay said.
Alex holds onto her drink, "But too over dramatic. Like some things that would never happen."
Sam nods, "I completely agree."
Bay turns from Alex to Sam, "Well what's wrong with that? Who cares if it isn't realistic." She said.
Delia turns to Ethan, "Maybe we should talk about something else."
Emi nods, "Agreed."
There was a moment of silence in the group. Sam was poking at his food, Ethan awkwardly rubbed the back of his neck, Emi glanced up around the others, Delia took a sip of her drink without making eye contact, Alex turns to glance out the window, and Bay looks from the table to Alex. She frowns and then got up from the table. All eyes on her.
"Bay?" Delia asks.
Bay forces a smile, "Let's play some video games at the arcade." She said.
Ethan nods, "Sure."
The group got up and began to walk over. Bay turns to watch them go over to the arcade. Bay smiles to herself for a moment and then follows the rest of the group over to the arcade. Ethan and Sam were playing some shooting game, Delia and Emi were playing a dancing game, Bay was playing at the claw machine, and Alex was just watching Sam and Ethan play.
Bay walks over to Alex, "You going to play?"
Alex shakes her head, "Nah. I'll just sit down." She said.
As Alex went to go sit down, Bay grabbed a hold of Alex's arm. A sudden switch in her behavior.
"Why are you so negative," Bay asks, "Why act this way?"
Alex turns to look at Bay, "Bay?"
Suddenly Alex felt the now familiar headache. Her expressions gave it away to Bay, that and when Alex basically collapsed onto her knees at the arcade. Alex holding onto her head and closing her eyes, the pain was starting to be normal but yet it still hurt. Bay was a bit shocked, she knelt down and looked at Alex with a concerned look on her face.
"Alex?" Bay spoke softly.
-Vision Sequence-
Alex appeared to be standing inside an airplane. She was a bit confused. The reasoning that she had appeared there. She began walking down the aisle, she saw the different people sitting in the seats. The ages were different and the races were as well. Alex walked down, looking at each individuals in the seats then stopped when she saw a familiar face. A younger Bay was sitting in the seat next to what Alex assumed to be her parents. Bay looked no older than twelve, she had a big smile on her face as she rambled on in Spanish to her parents. Alex formed a small smile, how lucky Bay was to have both of her parents.
"Mom," Bay smiles and began to speak in English, "When we get back home can we go see that new movie that came out?"
Her mother looks at her father and then to Bay, "Of course, darling."
Bay smile got wide and seemed to be happy with that answer. Alex walked closer to their seats, she looks down at them with a smile and then suddenly the room- well the plane began to shake. Because Alex was in the vision, she was thrown and her body impacted the wall near the flight attendants. Alex groans and looks at the panic of the passengers. The masks fell down and everyone began to put it over their mouths.
"This is your captain," The captain spoke, "We are experiencing some technically issue regarding landing, we are making an emergency landing. Everyone brace yourself!"
Alex felt the violent shaking, she looked at the scared flight attendants to the passengers. Bay looked terrified as she held onto her mom and dad while crying, the tears were sliding down her face. Alex somehow, even though she shouldn't be this affected in a vision, stood up and turns to see into the cockpit. The ground was coming closer. Alex turns to look at the scared Bay, and then black.
-Vision Sequence Over-
Alex shot straight up, she was sitting on the floor next to her friends. She looked around and noticed the concern they all share. Bay looks directly at Alex, probably with the most worry on her face. Alex tried to collect herself and then remembered everything.
"I'm sorry," Bay said, "I caused the vision."
Alex quickly turns to Bay, "No- No. It wasn't your fault." Alex said.
Bay looks into Alex's eyes, "But- it happened when I said those things."
Sam looks at Bay, "Bay, they just happen."
Delia nods, "Alex has not been able to fully control this yet." She said.
Ethan nods as well, "Hell the bad guys was able to pull her from a vision." He said.
Bay nods slowly.
Alex looks at Bay and then hugs the Pink Ranger, "I'm sorry if I am negative." Alex said.
Bay was shocked, "Alex-?"
"I- My life is the reason I am who I am," Alex then pulls back, "But this team, you guys are all new to me. I'm trying. I'm trying to be different." She said.
Bay was stunned.
"Bay, you are the most confident person I've ever met. I'm jealous of you." Alex said.
"You're jealous of me?" Bay asks.
Alex nods, "Yeah."
Bay smiles, "Oh- wow, Alex. I- I had no idea."
Emi then adds, "So what was that vision about?" She asks.
All eyes shift to Alex.
"Bay, it was a vision of the day a flight of your crashed." Alex said.
Bay remembered that day, "I was twelve. My parents traveled a lot for their jobs and since I was their only child, they brought me along to all the trips. So it was like any other trips. Traveling from Columbus, Ohio back home to Trenton, New Jersey but it wasn't. Halfway back, something happened to the plane. I remember a lot of shaking and screaming."
"Bay," Sam looks at her.
"It's okay." Bay looks back at Alex, "My parents told me to hold their hands. So I did. We wore the masks and braced ourselves like the captain said. One second we were being violently shook and screams echoed the plane, then black and dead silence. Afterwards, we were being pulled out of the plane and more panic consumed the situation when the plane just suddenly burst into flames."
"Wait- Flight 87, back in 2004?" Ethan asks.
Bay nods, "I was there."
Emi looks at her, "Sorry you went through that."
Bay shakes her head, "It was hard at first, sometimes I still get nightmares. That event is part of the reason I don't like planes anymore." Bay said.
Delia smiles at Bay, "Well if you ever need anything, we're here."
Sam nods.
"Yeah, Bay." Ethan said.
Alex nods as well, "Yeah. We're a team." Alex said.
Bay smiles, "Thanks guys."
-MYSTICKNIGHTS-
Back on campus the girls and the guys said their goodbyes as they headed off in the directions to the dorms. Ethan and Sam were heading right while the girls were going left. Alex was trailing behind Emi, Delia, and Bay like usual. She was keeping to herself, like how it was in the beginning but then she was surprised to see Bay slow her pace.
"Sorry about earlier," Bay said, "That was out of line."
Alex shakes her head, "It's alright."
Bay frowns, "No it wasn't."
Alex watched Bay look around, like she was trying to make sure no one was going to listen in on their conversation.
"I was jealous of you too." Bay said.
"Of me? Why?" Alex asks.
Bay frowns, "I'm not proud of it but I am. I- I really have feelings for Sam and well since he told us the truth about his biological past and everything, you two are more close than before. I- I thought you have feelings for him and he had feelings for you too. So it made me mad, because I really like him. I usually don't get this jealous but I am sorry."
Alex forms a small smile, "Well I accept your apology, Bay. To be honest, this is a first. No one has ever thought I had feelings for someone before."
Bay looks shocked, "Wha- What really?"
Alex nods.
"Who do you like?" Bay asks.
Alex blushes and turns her head, "N- No one."
Bay smirks, "Tell me!"
Alex shakes her head, "No!"
-MYSTICKNIGHTS-
In another dimension, in an alternative universe. This place looked much like the normal world, with people walking and driving, cities, streets, and people. Walking home from school were students or driving home. The school had let out, and exiting were a lot of teenagers. Upon that a group of a tight friend circle said their goodbyes in hopes to meet up later.
Walking in the direction of his home was a boy, well a teenager. A junior in high school, seventeen years old. He had light skin, standing at 5'8" tall, slightly muscular, short black spike cut hair, and green eyes that were covered by his glasses. He was wearing a blue neatly tucked in button down shirt, khaki pants, and black shoes. He was carrying his backpack and just wanting to get home quick, probably to do homework or because he had plans.
As the boy turned the corner he bumped into a women. The two fell to the ground.
"Oops," The boy spoke, "Sorry ma'am."
The women shakes her head, "No it's fine."
"I'm sorry about that," He said, "My parents would be mad at my manners, my name is Garry Harrison." He introduced himself.
The women smiled at the well mannered young man, "Why aren't you well mannered. Not like many children these days."
Garry smiles as he helps the women up, "My parents would be awfully angry with me if I wasn't respectful toward my elders- not saying your old, ma'am-!" He began to feel bad.
The women shakes her head, "No need to apologize, Garry." She said.
Garry notice the women beginning to cry, "Ma'am, are you okay?"
She nods while wiping the tears away, "It's just- this is stupid, your shirt is blue and well, my daughter- that was her favorite color."
"Is she dead?" He asks.
The women shakes her head, "No- No, its just- I haven't seen her in a long time."
Garry frowns, "I'm sorry about that."
The women smiles, "It's quite alright. I should get going." She said.
As the women continues to walk onward she hears, "What's your name, ma'am?"
The women turns to Garry and smiles, "Ursula McClure."
(A/N: It's been a while and I'm sorry. School has been consuming, mostly with German. Anyways, things have changed in my scheduling for this series. Obviously, Bay was suppose to have a two part chapter like the others, but it didn't end up happening. I am sorry to that, I had been struggling to write a Bay chapter for a couple of weeks now. I was scraping ideas left and right, finally I went along this chapter and said it was better than the bad copies I wrote prior.
Now the follow chapters will be the same but Ethan's chapter may be also a one part chapter like Bay's, all depends. Anyways, why I am kind of forcing the rest of the "character development" along is because of this arc coming up. This arc has been in the making since well, the beginning of the series. Its the crossover between Mystic Knights and Monster Hunters. A lot of questions will be answered in due time. Anyways, I'm going to go. Work on school stuff and possibly the next chapters. Until next time, -ICrzy)
