Chapter 3: The partay!
"It's great to be here."
"It sure is." The group decided to stick together for a while drinking some Champaign.
"Look it's Leon and Naomi! Hey! Over here! The couple came over.
"Hey guys! Wow! Can you believe that we were invited," Leon shaking everyone's hand and giving Leena a hug.
"So Naomi do you have a date?" Brad asked as he was taking a sip of his Champaign.
Naomi linked arms with Leon and made a simple sigh, "Leon." Brad spit back into his glass while Leon and Naomi laughed.
"Just kidding, we're on the same team. We had to com together," Naomi still giggling.
"Then I'm sure Leon wouldn't mind if I asked you to dance," Brad offered a hand to Naomi. She gladly accepted and the two went off to the dance floor. That left Leon, Bit, Leena, and Jamie.
"Well I'm going to try to find Dad. See ya!" Leon disappeared in the crowd.
"Bit, you wanna dance?" Leena gesturing him to the dance floor.
"I…" He stuttered as he noticed someone. A girl just about his age with long, dark, red hair and her face looked so familiar.
"…I…I can't dance," Bit said as he continued his stare.
"What! You…you just don't want to dance with me."
"It's not like that," Bit still staring at the girl.
"I'll dance with you honey."
"Ah! Harry where did you come from?"
"I'll always be right behind you, so how about that dance?"
"Uh! Jamie wants to dance with me! And…and he asked me first, so. Ta-ta!"
"Hey wait a minute, Leenaa!" Jamie whimpered as Leena grabbed his wrist and dragged him to the dance floor. That left Harry and Bit.
"(Sigh) That's just my luck."
"Hey Harry," Harry turned to Bit, "Who's that?" Bit pointing at the girl.
"I don't know. Any particular reason?"
"No, it's just that she looks so familiar." Bit decided to go and see who she is. He left Harry at the buffet table and proceeded across the dance floor. (Author's Note: The next scene when Bit tries to reach this girl is like in slow motion, giving it a dramatic look.) He barely squeezed through the crowd trying to keep up this mysterious girl.
"Sorry, sorry," he said as he bumped into a couple trying dance. He continued but bumped into a waiter with a tray full of wine glasses stacked on each other. Bit helped him balance saying his apologies as he tried to look around for the girl. But he lost her. Bit scanned through crowd looking for her.
Leena, who was dancing with Jamie, noticed how clumsy Bit was being. Well, more than usual. Her curiosity got the best of her. She started to lead Jamie toward Bit."Uh, Leena what are you doing."
"Hold still! I don't want Bit to see me."
"For what reason."
"………"
Meanwhile Bit couldn't find where the girl went. Then he accidentally backed into someone.
He turned around, "sorry," but froze. He just bumped into the girl he had been searching for the whole evening. They both stared at each other for a minute until Bit broke the silence.
"Sorry I don't mean to stare…"
"Yeah me too…"
"It's just that you look so familiar," the two said at the same time. They were both stunned.
"…Ashley…"
"…Bit…"
They both smiled wide as this new girl named Ashley jumped into Bit's arms. He spun her around with joy in him. Leena who was trying to hide behind Jamie grew bright red with fury. Bit put Ashley down and they just stared at each other for a while, they decided to talk a little bit while they danced. They took the waltz position and started to dance.
"Stupid Bit! He said he couldn't dance," Leena was furious. Back to the waltz. Bit and Ashley were doing great. If the party had a contest then they would've won easily. Their eyes were locked to each other's.
"Where have you been all these years?" Bit said as they stretched apart form each other and the only thing connecting was on hand. Ashley twirled back into Bit's arms.
"I would like to ask you the same question."
"Well, the last time I saw you was when you somehow managed to push the guy from axis of evil off the cliff. After that everything went black. I've been salvaging parts for food for a long time. One time I had a dream about the perfect zoid partner. After that experience I've been searching for him."
"Did you find him?"
"Yep! I'm one of the best zoid team too…The Blitz team."
"Oh, I heard that that team won the Royal Cup and went into class S."
"You heard about it?"
"Yeah, I wasn't near a city during the time."
"Okay. Now it's your turn to spill. What happened after I blacked out?"
"Well I had to drag you to a town. I stayed at your bed for a while until a bunch of people came. They took me away even though I resisted. I stayed in this city for a long time. Eventually I ran away and I've been a traveler for the past six years."
"Both of are lives are pretty screwed up," Bit said with a chuckle.
"Not anymore, we can be best friends again. Just like in the old days."
"Now you make it sound like we haven't seen each other in eighty years."
"Fifteen years to be exact."
"That long?"
"Your still the old Bit I knew," Ashley giggled.
"I know! You should come and stay with the Blitz team. You'll love everyone."
"Are you sure they wouldn't mind? I mean I'll just be burden to a class S team. They wouldn't need me." Bit dipped her, their noses were just inches apart.
"Your wrong and I'll show you that I'm right. You are always welcomed where ever I am. I'll make sure of it."
Leena was going crazy as she watched the dance. She was so angry that she was squeezing Jamie's arm so hard, he felt like it was going to just pop off.
"Leena please! There is no circulation in my arm!"
"Huh? Oh! Sorry." Jamie rubbed his arm and took a glance at Bit. He was laughing with Ashley as she was sharing one of their memories they had when they were little. Jamie looked back at Leena and then back at Bit. Back and forth, then a big grin came one his face.
"Leena are you jealous?"
"Jealous! I'm not jealous! Why would I be jealous!?!"
"……Leena it's so obvious."

(Author's Note: That chapter took a while, but I think it's great. Ashley is just a person I made up and she is not Bit's girlfriend. Their just old best friends. Anyway next chapter is when Ashley comes and joins the Blitz team. I'm not sure when the next chapter is going to be up. Please review! Bye!)
