Chapter4--Bets on the Fight to See.
May 16, AC201
"Hey Lena! Hurry up! Your gunna' make us miss the fight!" said Brad from the other side of her bedroom door.
"Sorry! Sorry...I'm coming..." she said as she went for the door to her room. "DONE!" she yelled as she opened it. Brad suddenly started eying her up and down. She was wearing a dark red spaghetti strapped tank with the words "Delightfully Tacky" on the front, and on the back it said "Yet unrefined". She had had Black pants on that looked like leather, but weren't. She had her short hair up in a French twist, and was curled all over. She had Black boots on and she was just leaning on the door frame with her arms crossed over her chest.
"I guess It'll do..." he said with a smirk
"Ugh...your such an asswhole when you want to be. Do you know that??" she asked as she got up and started walking down the hall. "And where's Tony?" she asked as she turned around to look at him.
"I'm right behind you."
"Ahh!!! Damn...you scared the bejesus out of me!" she said glairing at him. She then slightly smirked "....wow...you look hot!" she said looking him up and down.. He was wearing baggy black jeans that sank at his hips a little and he was wearing a white muscle shirt that showed all his muscles.
"hm...you don't look to bad yourself." he said as he looked at her.
"hm.....OH GOD! WERE GOING TO BE LATE!!!!" she screamed as she took his hand and ran out of the "Resistance" building. Brad was following close behind. Once out of the building, there were 2 Jeeps outside. Corah Riley, the drummer, was sitting in the back with Jack Orison, who was the guitar player. In the other Car sat, Lindsey Scott, and Alex Ripley. They were good friends of Relena, Tony and Brad. Tony immediately jumped into the passenger seat of the car Corah and Jack were in, and Relena took the driver seat. Brad took the car Lindsey was in. Relena turned to Tony quickly and said, "You might want to buckle up."
"So...your Ms. Safety now huh? Thanks for your concern but I think I'm fine." said Tony as he crossed his arms over his chest and looked out the window.
"It's more of a warning than concern." She said as she smiled at him.
"Then thanks for the warning but, I think I can take care of myself, Ms. IonlycareaboutpeoplewhenI'muptosomething"
"*sigh*...Fine...suit yourself" she said as she suddenly looked forward and slammed on the gas peddle. Tony's head flew back to the seat. Relena drove threw the desert, kicking up dust in a furies haste. In about an hour or so they finally reached a freeway. Relena slammed on the breaks and Tony's head flew forward and hit the storage compartment.
"Ahh..." moaned Tony as he brought his hand up to his forehead.
"So...what did you learn...?" asked Relena with a sly smirk.
"Never to piss you off...." he said still clutching his head.
"And...."
"*sigh* and to always listen to you because you're always right..." he said in a bored tone.
"GREAT! Now lets go..." she said as she put her foot on the gas and drove the rest of the way to the stadium.
When they finally reached the stadium, Tony forced Relena to park in the back of the parking lot. He said it was to "prevent any further damage to our 'loaned' cars." Relena just rolled her eyes, got out, and walked to the front gate where tons of people were gathering.
"Lena! Wait!" said Lindsey as she ran up to her friend with Corah next to her. "Did you get back at Tony for shooting you finally?"
"hm...well sort of....he still has a lot of payback to go threw." she said evilly.
"OH RELENA! YOUR SO MEAN! Just drop it already!" said Corah.
"Ugh...relax Corah...it wont be that soon..." she said. "AND ITS LENA!!! not 'Relena'....she's dead...remember?"
"*sigh* yah...I remember..."
"good...now lets get going!!" said Relena as she ran up to the gate with Lindsey and Corah on her tail.
"Women!" said Tony in a pissed off demeanor.
"You got that right buddy. Oh and how are ya?" said Alex sarcastically as he swung one arm over Tony's shoulder.
"Yah...peachy...." he said as he rubbed his for head.
"Hey Alex...are you going to propose to Lindsey?" asked Jack behind them.
"hm...yah...I guess...I just haven't found the right moment to that's all..." he said as he took his arm off of Tony.
"Well...lets not think about that right now...we have a fight to see...." said Brad as he rubbed his hands together anxiously.
"Yah...Lets go!" said Tony as they ran to catch up with the girls. By the time they finally reached Relena and the others, they were already at the gate, getting ready to walk through. The girls just lifted their arms which held a pass and walked right in. The dark stadium was filled with people. Black lights filled the large arena with a purple and blue hue. Red, yellow, green, and blue spot lights worked their way around the sea of faces.
"This is so Kick ass..." said Corah as she looked around in wonder.
"Isn't it though?" said Relena as she smiled and looked around. She took a deep breath and started walking again to their reserved seats which were just above the ground. A perfect view.
"I wonder who's going to win..." said Tony as he sat down. Relena was sitting down in the far right isle seat, Lindsey was next to her, then it was Corah, much to Alex's disappointment. Tony was on the other side of Corah, then it was Jack, then Alex.
"Yah...its supposed to be the greatest fight in history." said Lindsey. Relena suddenly stood up and placed her hands on her hips as she looked at her friends.
"So who's up for a bet?" she said with a smirk.
"Roadster will hit for the win!" screamed Alex as he stood up. "His Red armor suit has new adjustments to it this year. So I know, he'll make it to the final two, and win!"
"So you've got red?" asked Relena as she grabbed a little pad from her back pocket and a pen. "Same here, but I doubt Roadster is going to win. I think its going to be Fiery Leila."
"A woman? You know as well as I do that a woman can NEVER kick a man's ass, especially when she's against Motorcycle of the Blue team!" said Jack as he leaned forward in his seat.
"Jack, shut up! Any woman can kick Motorcycle's ass. My god! He got creamed in the first round last year!" said Lindsey as she leaned forward and smacked Jack upside his head. She then turned to Relena and said "Put me up for Red, Fiery Leila." Relena nodded her head and wrote it down
"Blue, Titanium Square." said Tony as he fiddled with his pocket knife.
"Same here." said Corah with her head on her hand.
"I say....Red Roadster. Kick more ass Alex!" said Brad as he got up and gave Alex a high five.
"*shakes head* Dorks..." she says under her breath. She then continues "Ok...so, Blue team, we've got, Tony and Corah for Titanium Square, and Jack for Motorcycle. And for the Red team, we've got Alex and Brad for Roadster, and Lindsey and I for Fiery Leila. Am I right?"
"Yah but what are we betting for? 10, 20?" asked Tony as he stood up.
"Shit no! How about 50 a piece to the three who thinks right on which team who wins. And the people that voted the same, but got the wrong person, will only pay 10."
"How about we raise it from 50 to 100 and 10 to 20." said Relena with a glint in her eye.
"Big money big money!" said Alex as he stood up and started doing a little dance. "Red is gunna kick blue's ass this year."
"Right on Alex" said Lindsey as she blew him a kiss.
"eh..hehehe." he giggled as he blushed and sat down.
