Arikashika5985: so sorry for the super long wait for this next chapter guys. It's been a bit difficult for me to get anything typed out because I've been volunteering at my little brother's school every week day.
Dan: yeah, yeah let's just get on with Alice's trail now
Ch. 12
"Alice? Alice, wake up," said three male voices. Alice was passed out on the ground. She started to stir once the guy nudged her arm a bit.
"Hm? Wha- where am I?" she asked as she sat up. Looking around she almost freaked out when she saw a guy with three heads and wearing darkus clothing.
"Alice, it's me," said the guy.
"Hydronoid? What in the world?" Alice asked standing up.
"I have no idea what just happened."
"You have entered the trial," said a big booming voice. Hydronoid and Alice looked around but didn't see anything or anyone.
"Trial?" Alice asked backing into Hydronoid. The ground under her feet gave out all of a sudden. Hydronoid quickly flatted himself on the floor and grabbed onto Alice's wrist before she fell further.
"Alice, hang on!" Hydronoid told her in a slight shout. Alice nodded as she looked towards the left wall. What she saw… caused tears to form in her eyes.
"Alice, what's wrong?" Hydronoid asked pulling her up. He pulled her into a gentle hug as she spoke.
"My… my parents… crash…" she sobbed. "What… what's the… point now… Hydronoid?"
"What do you mean, Alice? There's always a point in fighting back but if there was nothing you could've done… there's still a point to continue," Hydronoid tried to help her calm down.
"There is no point in continuing to live," said the booming voice. "There is only death in everything. Death must be embraced. No one can live forever. Death is inevitable. No one can stop death."
Alice cried more into Hydronoid's dark shirt. That big booming voice was getting to Alice too much. She looked up once she heard Hydronoid gasp sharply.
"Hydronoid!" Alice shouted. Hydronoid was beginning to disappear.
"Alice!" Hydronoid shouted back.
"See what I mean, girly?" asked the booming voice. "You can't stop death from happening."
Alice tried hanging onto her bakugan but she couldn't get a hold of him. Hydronoid was about to say his good-byes when Alice stood up sharply with a stomp of her foot.
"Death cannot be stopped, that's true! But that doesn't mean that you'll never see them again! Someday I will see my parents again… until then they'll be in my heart forever! I'll keep living and help my friends whenever I can! You can't make me see that I can't! Because I can be a big help to my friends in these battles! There was nothing I could've done for my parents that day, but I'll keep going in life!"
"Hmph. The other one let her blasted bakugan die," said the voice as the space went white with light. Alice and Hydronoid fell through emptiness until they passed out.
