"Hey. Hey, wake up."
Ali opened her eyes slowly. Someone was nudging on her shoulder and was talking to her. Ali opened her eyes fully and looked at who was disturbing her. It was a blonde haired boy that looked about her age and he was smiling.
"You're up." He stated.
"Yes, I am." Ali said, pulling herself to her feet.
"What were you doing down on the ground?" He asked.
"I was... I was taking a nap alright?" Ali snapped.
"No, you were unconscious." He said.
"Fine, I was unconscious. Happy now?" Ali snapped.
"Hey," He said, raising his hands in surrender. "I was only trying to help. I'm Clark."
"Well how very good for you." Ali said, checking her pockets for the orb.
"This is generally the part where you tell me your name." Clark said.
"Is it a law?" Ali said, digging through her messenger bag.
"Well, no, but -"
"Damnit!" Ali exclaimed.
"Excuse me?" Clark inquired.
"She stole it." Ali said to herself. "She stole it!"
"Who stole what?" Clark asked.
"You're very nosy." Ali said.
"I take offense." Clark said.
"Good, why don't you take it far away?" Ali suggested.
"Hey now, I'm being nice. The least you could do is be nice back." Clark said. "Now, who stole what?"
"Fine, you want to know? The oldest Dark One stole the orb that I have two of her sisters imprisoned in." Ali said.
"You... you hunt the Dark Ones?" Clark asked.
"Someone's got to do it." Ali said.
"I do too!" Clark exclaimed. "We could work together!"
"Um, no." Ali said. "I'm doing pretty good on my own."
"I've gotten to some of the higher members of their circle." Clark said.
"That's nice." Ali said, starting to walk away.
"Come on." Clark said, following her. "I can help you."
"Nobody can help me." Ali said. "I work alone."
"Aw, come on." Clark begged.
Ali ignored him and began looking all around her. She looked in her bag, then looked all around on the ground.
"Where is it?"
"Where is what?" Clark asked.
"Her sword... I got Phoebe's, but where is Piper's?"
"I saw Prue take it. Just before she left. I just got here as she was leaving with the sword." Clark said.
"I needed that." Ali grumbled. She started walking again, with Clark following. "What are you doing?"
"I'm going with you." Clark said.
"No, you're not." Ali said firmly. "You could get hurt."
"I've been hurt before." Clark said. "I can take it."
"You couldn't possibly take what the Dark Ones can dish out." Ali said.
"I'm strong and -"
"Strength has nothing to do with it." Ali said, cutting Clark off. "You said you killed members of their circle? Who?"
"Well, they were mortal members, but still..." Clark mumbled.
"Mortal? That's nice." Ali said.
"Well who have you killed?" Clark asked.
"Me? I captured two of the sisters and I killed the demon Belthazor." Ali answered like it was nothing.
"Belthazor?" Clark asked, his jaw dropping.
A/N: So.... intrigued yet? Huh? Heehee.
