" Hey guys, I'd like you to meet an new friend of ours." James winked and pulled Hilary into the light and out of the shadows.
Hilary waved. " Hi there!"
Stanley, Brent and Amber were there, sitting on crates and chatting away, well they were before anyways. The three waved.
" James! Put a shirt on! Your going to end up scaring her away!" Brent smirked.
James rolled his eyes. " Ha ha, very funny." But he ended up leaving the room anyways.
Amber patted a crate next to her. " Sit down! Don't act like were strangers now."
Hilary smiled brightly and sat down, having to jump up to get on top, since the crate was rather tall. Stanley stared at her.
" So what are you doing here? Not trying to be rude or anything." Stanley waved his hands in front of his chest.
Hilary shrugged. " I didn't want to go back to the hotel yet. Then James poped up and said this was a bad side of town, either go to the hotel or come here. So my choice is ovious."
" He's right ya know." Brent spoke up. " Lots of gangs and stuff on this side of town. Drug gangs, gambiling gangs, rape gangs...OUCH!"
Amber had thrown her shoe at him, hitting him right in the cheek. " She gets the point!"
Hilary giggled, but simply grinned when Brent glared at her. " You deserved it!"
" Says you two!" Brent mumbled, rubbing his now rosey red cheek.
The two girls giggled. James walked back into the room, still no shirt on but five cans in his hand.
" Care for a drink?" He wiggled one in between his fingers.
" Gimme!" Brent clapped his hands toghter.
James smirked. " Gimme, gimme, never gets, don't you know your manners yet?"
Brent folded his arms across his chest. " Yes I do, very well, gimme, gimme any how!"
(A/N: I made up this last come back line when I was bored in class)
James threw a can at Stanley and Hilary, then one at Amber. " Gimme, gimme, never gets, you oviously don't know your manners yet, so shut your mouth, for today, i'll only give it if you pay!"
James stuck out his tougne and Brent groaned in defeat. " Cheap..." Brent muttered.
Cracking open the can, James toke a swig of the inner liquid. Hillary (A/N: I just remembered it's spelt with two L's) stared at the can before poping it open. She toke a quick smell of it and smiled.
" Grape soda, this stuff is really good!" She swallowed a gulp and set it down beside her.
" James!" Amber whined loudly. " Your drinking my strawberry soda again!"
James crunched the can in his fist and threw it aside, licking his lips. " It's good!"
Amber threw him a smug smile. " Then buy your own! I hate root beer!"
" I'll take that!" Brent jumped up and clapped his hands togher.
Amber shrugged and threw it at him. Brent grinned and chugged the whole thing in like 30 seconds!
" Take a breather will ya?" Stanley sweatdropped.
Hilary giggled as Brent cruched the can under his foot and kicked it aside aswell.
Amber rolled her eyes at him. " Trying to act all mocho?" She raised a brow at him.
Brent smirked at her and jumped off the crate. " Is it working?"
Amber sweatdropped and heaved a heavy sigh. " This is going to be another long night."

" Where are they?" Max cried.
Ray shrugged. " They should be back by now, it is getting pretty late."
The three Bladebreakers stood on their hotel room's balcony, staring around and gazing at stars. Suddenly they heard a door shut. Turning around, they saw that Kai had returned, but no Hillary.
" Kai, where have you been?" Tyson shouted as he ran back into the room.
Kai glared at him. " I told you I went for a walk."
Tyson opened his mouth to say something but was stopped by Max. He had slapped a hand over Tyson's mouth and sighed heavily. Ray shock his head and stared at Kai.
" Did Hillary go with you by any chance?" He asked.
Kai's stomach jolted. " Is she...not here?"
The three shock there heads, Max removing his hand from Tyson's mouth.
" I think she followed you, she wouldn't just leave without telling us first, right?" Tyson stated.
Max nodded. " She is very responsible."
" You didn't see her at all?" Ray questioned.
Kai shock his head and left to his bedroom. Kai's mind was racing as he flopped onto his bed in the darkness of the night.
Hillary was gone?! Where would she go? And at this time of night? And nobody with her? What if something happened to her? Wait a second. Didn't Tyson say that she was following me? Why would she do that?
Kai tried his best to answer the questions with logical answers, but his tiny portion of worse case screnario came into the picture, and messed everything up.
Kai jumped off his bed and grabbed a black hoodie. " I have to find her." He stated out loud and rushed out the door, thankful that his teamates had left to bed.

Hillary streghed her arms high into the air and yawned. Amber smiled gentilly at her.
" Had a long day?" She asked.
Hillary smiled back and nodded, rubbing her sleepy gaze. Stanley jumped off the crate.
" Well we had better get some sleep. Hillary, are you staying here with us or going back?" He asked, hands on hips.
Hillary shock her head. " I should really be getting back. My team is probably wondering where I am."
Stanley nodded. " Alright. Best bring on of these brats with you, you'll need the defence if you get attacked."
Amber stuck out her tougne. " I don't think that's the greatest idea."
James grinned. " None-sence. Both me and Brent could watch out for her."
" Oh no! Brent stays. He still owe's the team training time!" Stanley snapped his fingers at the thought.
Brent groaned. Amber giggled and James grinned. Hillary smiled.
" Right." James motioned for Hillary to follow him. " We best be going now."

Kai looked up and down the alleys, checked the streets, even got stopped by the cops. He told them he was just trying to find a friends place and asked for fake directions.
" She could be anywhere by now!" Kai cursed loudly as he ran into a dumpster.
Then the thought hit him. Retracing his foot steps, he finally stopped in a familier alley. The one he'd launched Dranzer in the first place.
" It's getting late." He told himself and turned around, thinking that he'd probably have better luck in the mourning, when it was light out.

" The city looks so beautiful when it's dark, all the lights, everything." Hillary stared in awe.
James pushed his hands into his pockets and walked beside Hillary, his attention fully on her. In more then one way.
" It is nice. But dangerous too." He reminded her.
Hillary smiled up at him, then blinked. She giggled and James looked at her with a confused look.
" You didn't bother to at least put a sweater on? Aren't you going to get cold?" She asked.
James shrugged, hands still in pockets. " I've gotten used to the cold. Besides, it's not that bad out. There's no wind, and it's not winter."
Hillary nodded, staring in front of her. " True. Very true. But still."
" Why do you care anyways?" James instantly regreted the question, since his voice was filled with annoyance.
Hillary stopped dead in her tracks. She stared up at him, her joyful expression shattered.
" I was only showing concern for a new friend? Is that something so bad that you have to get mad at me for it?"
James held out his hand, brushing her cheek. " I didn't mean it like that. I'm sorry."
Hillary nodded, moving her face away from the touch. Much to her discomfort though, James hand fell to her wrist, his grip tightening.
" Let go James, your hurting me." Hillary whined, her voice kinda playful.
James grip lifted, after a few more seconds in the tight grip, but he still didn't let go. Hillary looked up into his eyes and searched them quickly. For some reason, she'd seen that look before. Her eyes widened with fear.
" Please James, no." She thought. " Not you too."
