She kind of sat back, her hands clasped behind her head, eyes closed. Perfect. He snuck up silently behind her, a glass of cold water in hand.
"Don't even THINK about it Bit Cloud or you'll be spitting up blood for three weeks straight."
Bit stopped, staring at Alanna who hadn't even opened her eyes. "How'd you know I was there?" "You move way to loudly, you breath hard and your aura is too fucking bright. Now go away."
He threw the water at her head, eyes nearly popping out when electricity fizzed up around her and evaporated the water. "You're not human!" "You're right, I'm Saiya-jin, pure blooded at that." She muttered, sitting up and motioning to her now apparent tail. He fell over.
She grinned as Leon came in and stared down at Bit, who was passed out on the floor. "What happened to him?" "He found out I wasn't human. I think he took it pretty well though." "How so?" "I wasn't declared spawn of Satan this time."
Leon nudged Bit with his foot, "Come on Bit, get up. You have to start repairs on Liger Zero." Jerking himself up, Bit blinked. "Shin'yuu?"
Alanna rolled her eyes and then leaned back in her chair again, eyes closed.
'This is impossible, must review everything.' Bit froze up and stared around the room, where was the voice coming from this time?
Flashes of battles ran through his mind, including the one he had had just yesterday. Someone was watching all the fights, remembering! Who was he?
'Must think straight, have to beat.. Bit Cloud Winner.. Name's familiar... ' A flash of a little boy struck through his mind and he barely heard Leon asking him if he was alright. "He.. Knows me!" Leon shook him, "Who knows you? Are you alright?"
Alanna's eyes shot open and she glared at Bit, observing his paleness and how obviously shooken up he was. Puzzled, she glanced at Leon. 'He can read minds... I better watch it around him. Does he know? No.. He doesn't understand yet.'
Bit looked at Alanna, watching her as she jumped out of her chair and hurled herself out of the room.
"What's with her?"
"I'm not sure yet."
****
Bit walked past the living room, then saw something that made him stop. He backtracked to see Alanna and Leon snuggled closely up on the couch. "You spying on them?" Doc Toros asked from the side of him, glancing at Bit. "I didn't know they were dating..."
"Alanna and Leon aren't technically dating yet, neither of them will ask the other. So for right now, let's just say their hearts are owned. Jealous?"
"Actually, I feel happy." 'But is that my feeling or someone else's? No, it's my feeling, why am I happy for her? She's always such a bitch to me...'
"Good, I don't want any rivalry over a girl.. Or a guy either."
"Hey Doc! I'm not that way!"
Doc Toros shrugged and walked away while Bit watched the content pair on the couch, 'They're not doing anything, just.. Sitting there. Wierd.'
"You can read people's minds, can't you?"
"Wha?"
"Can't you?"
He held his breath and looked over his shoulder at the same girl he had seen at the end of his first battle.
"Can't you?"
"Where are we??" He looked around at the smokey violet surroundings. "This isn't the hover cargo!"
"No, this is my mind. You can read people's minds, can't you?"
"Stop asking me that! I can't do that, it's impossible!"
"Alanna can do things too, nothing's impossible. You read people's minds. What's your real talent?"
A flash of violet behind the helmet's visor and then it was all-
Gone.
"Huh, what?" He looked around again, seeing the hover cargo perfectly. Alanna and Leon were still snuggled on the couch, though they were sleeping now. He pushed his sleeve up and checked the time, 9:03 pm. Late. Night. "How long have I been standing here? It was morning just a while ago!"
He heard a sleepy yawn and turned to see Alanna crack open an eye and stare at him. 'What's she thinking, can I tell?' He tried to hear her mind, to know what was going on in her head, but nothing happened. 'I can't read minds.... Whoever that was, she was crazy.'
"Bit?" He looked back at the half awake Alanna, who was still resting her head on Leon's chest. "Bit...?"
"Yea?"
"Why are you still standing there, you snot nosed punk? When I fell asleep you were there and I KNOW it's been more than a couple hours! Go watch some other couple, freak!" With that said, she grabbed a paperweight and threw it at his head.
Lucky for his health, he ducked in time and the paperweight hit the wall. "Next time, I'll use ki."
Gulping, Bit ran from the living room.
"What was that, 'Lanna?" Leon murmured sleepily, shifting his position. She sat sideways on his lap and cuddled further into his arms, pulling a blanket over them both. "Just a little bird... Go back to sleep, Le." He yawned, "Right."
She narrowed her eyes, staring at a wall before letting her eyes shut. As she drifted off to sleep, her mind spoke for her, loud enough for Bit to hear her all the way from the hangers.
'Stupid Bit Cloud, I know who you are, and I'm going to beat you one of these days! I swear it!'
****
"Hey, have you heard about her yet Bit?" Leena called up to him, as he was working sat in Liger's cockpit, talking to his friend.
"Who's her?"
"Violet Wolf! Are you THAT hopeless? She's one of the best Zoid pilots every! But compared to me, you know-"
"She'd look even better compared to you. That's like comparing a speck of dust to a whale, Leena. Violet Wolf would kick your ass."
"Ya, rumor has it that she's related to Star Wolf!"
Bit finally understood something that they were saying and his jaw dropped, "The Star Wolf?"
"You guys do know that Star Wolf was defeated twice and that her last defeat caused her death, right?"
Everyone gave Alanna an angry glare, "It makes her more famous!"
"What, can't handle the damned truth?"
Bit climbed down from Liger and stood next to Alanna, "You had better be nice to me today." "Why?"
"My family's coming to check up on me."
"And Alanna?" She looked at Doc Toros with her usual angry scowl, "What?" "Jamie and his friend are coming today also, they're joining up with us."
She shuddered at the thought of more zoids, "Reynos?"
"Yes, and it seems that Jamie's new partner is quite the pilot. I'd like you to set up some rooms for them."
"Fine fine, whatever. Bit, about your family-"
"Bit!!" Alanna was cut off by a familiar blonde haired pilot crushing Bit into a hug. Behind the pilot stood a woman with long pale blonde hair and crazy eyebrows. "Mrs. Winner? Mr. Winner?" She asked, blinking.
"Alanna! Why if it isn't the family babysitter, still taking care of our little boy?" Quatre asked, messing with Bit's wild blonde hair.
"Uh.. Yes, yes I am! He's just the cutest thing all grown up!" The 'babysitter' looped an arm around Bit's neck, squeezing angrily while forcing a smile. To Bit's parents, it looked like a hug. To Bit, it was death hold.
"We brought Serah and her new teacher along too! They said they were coming here anyways!"
Alanna grimaced, tightening her hold on Bit's neck as Serah Tsukibara ran up behind the Winners with none other than Jamie. "Serah is Jamie's new partner? She's the new Reynos pilot??"
"And we brought Duo and Neoami along! Neoami soo wanted to see her little sister!"
Toros nodded as he examined the growing crowd, "I didn't know you knew them, Alanna, you should have told me!"
"Oh fuck this shit! You people are crazy, don't you ever go away??!" She let go of Bit and hurried out of the hangers to escape her family and would be friends. Bit scratched his head, "So.. Alanna was my baby sitter?"
"Up to two years ago, hun."
