Chapter 16:Alia and Vivi
Ray's Point of View
We landed not far from Spiral City and walked the rest of the way so people wouldn't see us flying.Skye had landed on my shoulder so people would think he was a pet falcon.
"You humans have a strange way of building cities,"Skye said.
The city had a long walk way that spiraled up into the air with houses and shops on both sides.At the top was a much larger structure.
"That's probably the mayor's house,"I said.
"Why don't we go to a restaurant?That flight was longer than I thought it would be,"Trunks suggested.
"Well,it is close to lunch time.Skye,shouldn't you be ramming your head into a tree by now?"I asked.
He tightened his grip on my shoulder and glared at me,"Very funny."
"Okay,okay!"I exclaimed.
'Note to self:Don't make birds angry,'I thought.
"You go land on the roof or something.I'm pretty sure they don't allow birds in a restaurant,"I said when we were just outside the door of one.
Skye flew off my shoulder and we walked in.We all got seated at a table and ordered.I looked around to make sure Zaffiroth hadn't somehow gotten passed our senses.That's when I noticed a blonde girl staring at me,Zapland,and Trunks.I tapped Trunks on the shoulder and nodded in the girls direction.
'I wonder why she's staring at us?'Trunks thought.
'Maybe you don't want to know.She might have a crush on you,'I thought.
'I went through enough of that in my own dimension.My mother was the smartest and richest woman on the planet and for some reason girls thought Gohan and I were cute.Until the Androids got more vicious,'he thought.
'More vicious?I thought they were bringers of chaos when you were one year old?'
'Not exactly.At first they just did little attacks and people got over them quickly.But after about ten years of that,they started to destroy everything.Buildings,vehicles...They even tortured people until they begged for mercy,then they...'
Trunks slammed his fist on the table,startling everyone and snapping the table itself.His face started to turn red.I couldn't tell if it was out of anger or embarrassment.
"S-Sorry,"he whispered,though his voice was still filled with anger.
I knew how he felt.I,too,had gone through so much.There were times when I thought it was all a dream and I tried to wake up.Only to find that it was still real.
'The only advice I can give you is to control your anger and don't,'I looked down at the splinters of the table,'snap tables in half.'
'You sounded...like Gohan when you said,er,thought that,'Trunks thought.
"Ahem."
I looked up,it was that girl that had been staring at us.
"What?"Zapland asked,obviously irritated that someone had disturbed his thoughts about who knows what.
"I want that silver thing to meet a friend of mine,"the girl said cheerfully.
"I am not a thing..."Nono trailed off.
"Where is this friend of yours?"I asked.
"Down here."
I looked and saw an orange beast about the size of Nono.It looked like him too,but with orange hair.
"Hm?A..female?I never thought I'd see another one in my life!"Nono exclaimed.
I looked from Nono,to the orange female,and back.If I didn't know better,I would have said they had hearts flying above their heads.
"Since my friend's in a bit of a daze,I'll introduce her.This is Vivi,and I'm Alia,"the girl said and extended her hand.
I looked back to Nono and noticed that he was in a daze as well.Then I turned back to Alia and extended my hand.
"Nice to meet you.I'm Ray,the girl across from me is Sarah,the lavender haired guy is Trunks,"the girl giggled at Trunks's name,causing him to blush,"The girl across from him is Jessie,the guy next her is my brother,Zapland,the guy across from him is Cirrus,or the 'goon' or 'brute' if you prefer,and of course the silver beast over there's Nono.There should be a bird on the roof named Skye,but he's probably knocked himself out on a closed window or something,"I finished.
"Gee,you sure are a strange group,huh?"she asked.
'I have to agree with that,'I thought.
"Oh my...You know you have to pay for that,right?"our waitress asked when she saw the table laying on the ground.
Trunks blushed again.
"Heh...Sorry about that.My friend doesn't know his own strength,"I said and handed over ten zeal to pay for the table.
"C'mon,my table's big enough,"Alia said.
We shrugged and followed her over to the table.After the food arrived,I could tell the others were staring at me,Zapland,and Trunks again.Especially Alia.
"I'll never get used to that,"Sarah said.
I noticed that Nono hadn't touched his food,he just continued to stare at Vivi.
'Ah,what a cute sight,'I thought with a silent chuckle.
'I think it's nice that Nono has found another one of his species,'Trunks thought.
'Yeah,you're right.But I hope this doesn't slow us down,'I thought.
Sarah,Jessie,and Alia had been in a conversation which I had completely ignored until...
"Can I help you guys on your trip?"Alia had managed to pull us all into the conversation.
"Well,another ally does make things easier.But,it's dangerous.Are you sure--"I started.
"'You want to join?'Ray,you're getting too predictable,"Sarah said.
I decided to stay silent for a little while,'I now pass the leadership onto you.'
"Well,I guess Ray doesn't have a problem with it so...I guess it's all right,"Trunks thought,guessing what I had meant.
"I guess you're the leader,right?"Alia asked me.
"According to who you ask,I guess I am,"I replied.
"So,O great leader,what do you suggest we do until the silver haired one shows up again?"Zapland asked sarcastically.
"Well,first we have to teach her what we know,"I answered.
Ending Notes:"Again,I was thinking of Grandia 2 when I wrote this.That's how I came up with most of the dialogue between Ray and Skye.Well,since I don't have anything else to say,please review."
