Aprilangel413: Chapter6 is here, with a bit of a twist to it. No time has passed, it is just after Alex meets with Xanatos.

Disclaimer: I don't own Gargoyles.


Alex left his dad's office in a much better mood then he had when he entered. His father inquired him about his eye. And laughed we he heard the answer. Then when he was able to calm himself he got to the point of the meeting. Alex was relieved that it had nothing to do with the incident in the gym. Now that it was over he was off to find Fiona, to apologize.

He found her on the balcony, playing chess with Malcolm. He walked out behind her and placed a hand on her shoulder.

"We need to talk."

She looked down at the game and then at Malcolm.

"I'll know if you move anything."

Then she walked off into another corner of the balcony.

"I just want to say I'm sorry, I don't know what I was thinking."

"It was probably that whack in the head I gave you. It must have screwed your head up."

"So we agree that it was nothing, just a one time thing."

"Yeah, one time."


Alex was in his room, reading some books Owen had recommended. The sun had come up and the clan went to sleep. He guessed that Fiona was awake, to think of it they had never really formed any sleeping or eating patterns. He had been thinking about the conversation he and his dad had earlier. It was defiantly something that was going to keep his brain busy for a while.
Fiona was sitting on the balcony, staring at the chessboard.

"How did he win?"

Elisa put a hand on her daughter's shoulder.

"He moved his knight, queen, and both his bishops."

"Little brat."

"But he's your nephew, and you know deep down that you love him."

"I know you're right but can I deny it for just a little while longer?"

"Go ahead. I'm turning in."

"Ok seeya in a few hours."

Elisa kissed her daughter on the cheek and then went to her room.


It was now eleven in the morning. Alex and Fiona were both up and in the kitchen. Alex had a slice of pizza with a Pepsi, and Fiona was having a small salad and a sprite. They ate in silence until Fiona started conversation.

"I heard you got called to your dads office for a little chit chat."

"He was the one chit chating. I had to listen."

"I feel so sorry for you. So what was it about?"

"A bunch of rich parents are having a big fancy party. He wants me to go."

"What? But you don't like those high class parties, do you?"

"No I hate them. I don't know anybody there but they all know me."

"So if there was someone there you knew you wouldgo?"

"Actually let me rephrase that. The only people there are snobby trust fond babies. The guys hate me and the girls won't leave me alone."

"It must be horrible."

"The only good things about debutante parties are the food and the way we dress."

"You like to get dressed up?"

"The suits are ok, but the girls always look so beautiful in their dresses."

Alex was staring off into space now and Fiona just got up and left. Alex then got up and ran after her.

"Wait. I want you to be my date."

"What!"

"I won't have a good time unless you're by my side."

"But I've never been to a party like that before."

"So?"

"So I can't go, I'm a gargoyle for gods sakes."

"I don't care if you're a harpy, you're my best friend and I need you there. Please?"

"I need to think about it."

She then turned her back to him and headed to the library. Alex just watched her go down the hall.

"Let me know soon. Ok?"
