A/N: I apologize for not uploading a new chapter yesterday, but I didn't feel so well. Unfortunately, I won't be able to update after this chapter for a good while. Assignments in my university are becoming too much in such little time, and I need to concentrate on them. I hope you understand.
Chapter 18
Morning came, and Blake woke up looking at her surroundings. Everything was calm until Blake saw her hand in Keith's and quickly untangled it.
"What has happened?"
Blake picked Reaper, who was sleeping very quietly, but quickly woke up once he felt someone picking him and showed himself.
"Blake?!"
Reaper was surprised. Usually, he was the one to wake Blake up, not the other way around.
"What happened last night?"
Blake asked.
Reaper was dumbfounded at first until he noticed Spectra in PJs, sleeping and mask free figure.
"I don't know too. I was in deep slumber."
Reaper replied.
"I see."
Blake stood up picking her yesterday clothes, tossing them in the wardrobe and instead got her tight jumpsuit which was sitting in the closet for some time now along with shirtless long jacket with some details on the back, which she had bought at the same time when she was shopping for her Vexos attire. With that, she left for the bathroom to change.
In no time she returned to her room, and a fully clothed Keith, no Spectra was there with his mask shining from afar.
She was speechless.
"Cat got your tongue."
Spectra teased.
"Haha, very funny."
Blake said unamused, picking her Hades mask.
"Cold."
"Don't pretend you aren't."
Blake retorted.
Spectra rolled his eyes.
Blake was near the door and about to leave.
"Whatever you say, Ice Queen."
Spectra chuckled.
Blake froze in her tracks
A blush was trying to creep on her face.
Spectra used this moment to surprise her from behind, startling her even further.
"What the hell are you trying to do?!"
A pink blush was visible on her face.
Before she could do anything further, Spectra hugged her.
Blake didn't like hugs and tried to break apart from it, but as a result, Spectra hugged tighter.
"I feel the air is leaving me."
Blake didn't like this and unfortunately had to resort to 'dirty' tricks, which by that she meant stepping on his foot rather painfully.
This made him release her from the hug.
Blake grabbed the chance and quickly walked to the middle of the hallway, irritated.
She quickly fixed most of her composure.
"Don't ever do or mention this again."
From afar, Spectra chuckled.
"I never imagined you'd be so against and embarrassed by this."
"Calm down, loverboy."
"Shut up, Helios."
Meanwhile, the Bakugan Brawlers were in Marucho's, and we're sitting on four separate couches. Mira looked at her necklace with Keith's photo, wondering what he was going to do.
For some reason, her thoughts were stopping on Hades. Like the rest of the brawlers, Mira thought that Hades was an even bigger mystery than Spectra, not only that, but as powerful and dangerous as him too.
Mira's mind started replaying recent events like flashbacks, but some of Hades's mannerisms reminded her of someone that was supposed to be dead from a decade ago. But it couldn't be possible, right? But then again, Spectra turned out to be her brother, so she was expecting everything at this point.
"That's ridiculous unless the Vestal technology has evolved to do such things."
Mira thought with horror-struck face.
"Hades is …."
