NOW FOR THE LONG AWAITED CONTINUATION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Trouble, Pain, and Doubt (Part 2)
.
Dive's visits with Chameleon became more and more frequent as the weeks went by. I t was pretty cool cause they had actually become friends. Whether he was on guard duty or just down there with one of the others, he just wasn't as talkative around them. It wasn't that he was ashamed that he was friends with him, but the other that didn't already know would freak! Especially Wildwing and Canard. That's just what Canard needed, another excuse to get on his case; plus the guys where jumpy cause Old Draggy hadn't attacked since they had capture Chameleon. They talked about everything and nothing all at the same time. And Duke was beginning to notice, so he decided to check on the kid one day during guard duty. He was about to say hi when he overheard talking so he hid.
"You should have seen her face! It was hilarious. My only regret is that I didn't have a camera," laughed NoseDive.
"You just love to aggravate her don't you?" asked Chameleon as he to laughed.
"You'd better believe it!" he smiled.
"Why?"
"Well, because……. you know what, I have no clue. Mal-mal just seems like the ideal target." he shrugged in response.
"But she has a temper," reminded Chameleon.
"There goes the understatement of the century. I guess it's because I look at her like a sister, and a sibling, especially a younger sibling, must be annoying." he smirked.
"You're a funny person Dive," laughed Chameleon.
"No, you wanna know someone funny, try Wildwing. He's so has the hots for Mal-mal, but he's to shy to admit it."
"Wildwing, shy?! You're kidding."
"None what so ever."
"I just can't see it."
"There's a lot of stuff you, or the team for that matter, don't know about us."
"What do you mean?"
"You wouldn't understand."
"Try me," silence "Come on Dive, from friend to friend. You can trust me. Tell you what, if you'll answer me, I'll tell you anything you wanna know."
"You mean you wouldn't anyways?" he smiled.
"Well of course I would have but…. you're trying to confuse me aren't you?"
"What do you mean trying? I did, and yea I guess I'll tell you about myself, if you go first." Dive agreed.
"Hey wait a sec., I thought you were going to tell me about yourself first."
"After you, deal?"
"Deal, but what if you have to leave?" asked Chameleon.
"Then we'll continue this discussion on my next watch. Deal?"
"Deal. Okay, what exactly do you wanna know."
"Uhmmm…. Why are you so afraid of Dragonus besides his face?"
"You had to ask the hard question didn't you?"
"Oh yea, so what's the answer?"
"Well, I don't exactly know how to say this, but every time we fail, especially me, he literally beats the crap out of us. I've got the bruise and scars to prove it too." Chameleon sighed.
"That must really, really suck,"
"It does, but you get used to it after a while."
"No, not really."
"Pardon?"
"I personally never got used to it."
"Used to what?" asked Chameleon a little confused.
"Getting the living day lights beat out of you daily for no reason."
"And how would you know that?"
"Cause, after my parents died Wing and me went threw a few families, some nicer than others," Dive replied looking away.
"But you were six and………." Replied Chameleon in shock.
"Exactly." Dive interrupted with a look of pain in his eyes.
(Wow,) he thought, (I never even considered that we may have something in common)
"What time is it?" asked Chameleon realizing a change in subject was needed. He knew exactly how the kid felt. Plus that also explained why Wildwing was so protective.
"What, huh?" asked Dive coming out of his thoughts, "oh a sorry why do you wanna know?" he asked out of curiosity.
"Cause Duke should be down soon,"
"Shoot, you're right. He should have been here a while back."
Duke over heard all of this and Duke decided now was a good time to enter seeing as he didn't want to get caught. "Hey kid, sorry I'm late. I was busy" He called down.
"No problem Dukester," he smiled standing up and stretching.
"Can you handle it from here? I gotta meet Wing for something or another and than I'll probably go see Thrash and Mook,"
"Later kid,"
"bye," waved Dive as he left.
(Trust, Dive, Chameleon, it doesn't fit. I mean no offense, but they sound like friends, but Dive hates saurains.) thought Duke to himself as he entered to holding room for guard duty and Dive left. "So the kid trusts ya, or did I miss something?" Duke asked after he thought for a few moments and sitting down in the chair that Dive was in moments ago.
"Yea, I guess, I mean that's what he said anyways. And from what he told me it must be true. Why? What's it to ya?" asked Chameleon suspiciously.
"Just wondering," replied Duke coolly, "I was worried about the kid. And my hearing," he added under his breathe. "His trust is pretty hard to earn," he continued. "Did you know that?"
"No I didn't, but……."
"From what I can tell he usually has pretty good judgment," interrupted Duke, "especially in these areas. Wildwing however, won't be won over quite so easily, even with Dives help. He's very protective of his little brother, as you know. And Canard sides with him. Slapshot…. he'll probably side with Dive, Tanya will leave the decision to the team, Blizzard and Nightingale will be like Tanya, and Kat….. who knows I'm still not sure how she thinks. And then there's Mallory, I'll wish you the best of luck.. I live and fight with her and she still doesn't trust me." continued Duke as he rolled his eyes.
"So does that mean you trust me?"
"No, it doesn't. It means that I care for that kid and I'll watch his back. So anything I do is for his sake, not yours." Replied Duke. He was about to say more when Drake One's alarmed blared threw the building. Canard sooner appeared in the holding cell area.
"Duke, put him cuffs or something. We're gonna need the whole team on this one and we can't leave him here."
"Righto," replied Duke standing up. "Give me a minute,"
"Do you need help?"
"No, I think he'll come willingly," he said looking over at Chameleon who nodded in agreement.
"Alright, give me a call if you need help. Remember he's tricky." Stated Canard as he headed up the stairs.
"I will," Duke call after him as he thought, (maybe we can trust him after all, but then again…..)
"Don't worry Duke, I won't fight ya."
"Thanks," he smiled. "Common, we'd better go before the others start to worry, and I'm sorry but you have to wear cuffs,"
"I understand," he replied.
"Hey Dukester," replied Dive as he ran down the stairs. "I can take it from here,"
"Alright kid, meet us up top in 2 minutes," he smiled leaving. (I hope you know what you're doing kid,) he thought. "Oh yea, kid"
"Yea Duke,"
"You're on guard duty during the battle," with that he left with out waiting for a reply.
"What was that about?" Dive asked Chameleon as he got everything prepared to leave.
"With Duke,"
"Yea,"
"He overheard us talking and well…….."
"Cooloa, 10 points for the Dukester," he grinned. "Let's ride," he replied as he went up stair with Chameleon in loose cuffs. "Ready guys," he replied as he arrived at the Migrator to find the others waiting. Wildwing started the engine and they were off. "So Dive," stated Canard, "Duke tells me that you're in charge of watching Chameleon, think you can handle him?"
"No doubt," he smiled in reply.
"Okay……..but keep your puck launcher ready, remember he's really tricky."
"Got cha,"
Upon arriving at the battle field everybody, with the exclusion of Dive and Chameleon, got ready for battle field which didn't take long to begin. Dive kept a look out from his position where he was "guarding" Chameleon. He fired a few rounds at the saurian. All of them were fighting minus Draggy. When he turned back around Chameleon was gone.
More really, really soon. I promise this time. Thankx for you patients.
