DragoFlare 4000: With a hint of lemon, of course.

FireHedgeHog: Of course. I'm psychic!

Shuinka: Axl secretly enjoys it. It gets him extra attention

I'm not a horribly sarcastic person. Of course not. Short crappy chappy because… I didn't feel like writing any more.

Weddings, even impromptu ones, do not occur over night, unless you run off to Las Vegas. In that case you can get married several times in one evening. There needed to be a dress and a tuxedo and bridesmaids, the best man, a cake, a church, flowers, a photographer – Cinnamon was off in her own world planning this. Alice was perfectly content allowing her to do this.

Marino, Layer, Alia, Nana and Pallette agreed to be the bridesmaids. Zero was the best man ( despite the fact that Alice was wearing the dress she still was the man in the relationship and definitely was closer to Zero than to X ), Signas was the Justice of the Peace, Douglas was the photographer, Massimo had a disturbing talent with flowers and X agreed to make the cake.

Well, you can't win them all.

All this planning meant more time. And more time meant that the inevitable would happen.

"Who was the brilliant person who thought up weddings and made them so damn complicated?" Muttering to herself Alice walked down to the mess hall. She needed coffee and she needed coffee badly. It was only five in the evening and she was still exhausted. Damn child. No, wait, damn children. At least she hadn't suffered through morning sickness, though she was beginning to show now. Well, beginning was too nice of a word. It was more like she suddenly ballooned over night. Alice swore she really wasn't giving birth to two children, it was just a bunch of basketballs Alia had stuck up there to be evil. That bitch.

Grabbing a cup, she ignored the stares she was getting ( oh no, not again ) and poured herself some coffee. Looking around the room she spotted Nana and X talking at one table. Alice walked over and sat down, tuning into Nana's exuberant ramblings. "… it was such a good idea too! MetMets everywhere! No one would ever suspect a thing until it became to late and they were already everywhere! I was so close, so close to world domination…"

"There there." Patting her on the back, X forced a smile. "I'm sure you'll have other changes to try for world domination. After all, you can't expect to succeed the first time. Just keep on trying and you'll get there eventually. Look at Sigma. He's tried eight times and he's failed miserably every time but he hasn't given up."

"Really?" Sniffing, Nana wiped her eyes and looked around, spotting Alice. "Oh, hey…" She paused and blinked, staring. "… Axl!"

"Huh?" The girl took a gulp of the burning liquid and cocked her head to the side. "Axl?"

"Yeah. Don't tell me you didn't notice."

"Notice…?" Looking down, Alice realized that something was missing. It would come to her eventually, she knew that. It was almost like… "Oh. I see. I'm not Alice anymore then, am I?" Nana nodded, raising an eyebrow. "Geeze, don't blame me. I can't see past this lump in my stomach."

"It's not in your stomach, not unless you're digesting the baby. And you're awfully calm to have just suddenly gotten your male body back." X grabbed the cup away from the pink-haired boy and took a sip himself, making a face. "Ew, you drink this black?"

"I don't expect people to be stealing my coffee so yes I drink it black." Axl made a face. "My voice hasn't changed. Again. Why is that always the last bit to go?" He stood up and stretched, waiting a moment for the brief period of dizziness to pass. "I have to go change then."

"Change?"

"Yeah. You've never tried wearing panties while being fully male, have you?" X sputtered, face going pale. Axl grinned. "No wonder I was so uncomfortable down there." The boy left, leaving a very disturbed X alone to contemplate the meaning of life and just why his 'friends' were so damn mean to him.
