A/N Hey everybody! I know what you're thinking and I'm thinking the exact same thing. 'Well, it's about time!' or 'Finally!' and maybe some of you are asking 'Where have you been?'. Well, to answer your questions all I have to say is I got writers block and after that I got lazy, and I am truly sorry for leaving you guys hanging like that. Alright enough excuses, apologies, and whatnot; on with the story!

Chapter 9- Double Trouble

"Hello Alicia." Boris said with a sadistic smirk.

Alicia scowled at him. "Boris."

"So how have you been my niece?" Boris said slowly.

Alicia scoffed and crossed her arms. "Like you care. I have no interest in making small talk with you, so could you please get out of my way?"

"Why? Have you lost your team?" Boris asked with another smirk.

"Yeah, you wish. You'd just love for me to do something wrong wouldn't you?" She said knowingly. "When I left Biovolt you thought, no, you were hoping I would fail. Because then I would come crawling back to you, right?" Boris just shrugged guiltily, his smirk still in place. You glared at him darkly. "You can think and hope what you want. You'll have to get rid of everything I've ever worked for to get me to go back, and I'm not even sure I'll go back to that hell hole then. In fact I'd kill myself before I'd make the same mistake twice."

Boris smirk had faded into an emotionless expression. "I hardly believe you'd kill yourself." Boris stepped closer to her, but Alicia stayed put, looking far from intimidated. You know you loved the power you had while you were there, how you got to control people as they obeyed your every word." He walked to the side of her and bent down to whisper in her ear, "You'll be back with us soon, my niece." Then he left, laughing manically.

Alicia stood there scowling until she was sure he had left then she punched the wall angrily, leaving a dent as she growled in frustration. He was up to something again, she could tell because he was just too damn cocky. Then his last words floated back into my head; you'll be back with us soon, my niece. She scoffed and started walking towards the stadium again. "I hate relatives."

In the Stadium

Alicia sat down in the seat next to her team and glared at the stadium where Tyson battled Gary.

Keena looked at Alicia in confusion. "Is something wrong?"

Alicia glared at the stadium more. "I would like to know why you three were here instead of going back to our locker room like I told you to do."

"Because we got a message from you saying that you would meet us at the stadium." Mallory said as she ate some cotton candy. The whole crowd went into an uproar as Tyson slammed Gary's blade out of the stadium. Alicia didn't ever send them a message, so the only explanation for that was that Boris planned out his little meeting with her precisely. That bastard.

"So, are you saying that you didn't send us that message?" Jessica asked after she sat back down from cheering for Tyson.

Alicia just stood up and started to walk off. "I'll see you guys later." They all nodded as she walked off. Alicia smirked as she walked around the coliseum. Boris went through all that trouble to get me alone just so he could make meaningless threats. He could've done anything at that point, and she wouldn't have been able to do anything about it.

"Maybe Uncle Boris's mind was finally weakening with old age." Alicia said to herself with the smirk still playing on her lips.

"Or maybe you just don't realize how clever your uncle really is." Someone said from behind her. Alicia's smirk turned into a frown as she recognized the voice.

Alicia sighed. "Do you not have a life, Tala?"

"Well, not since you left." Tala walked closer to her, and she rolled her eyes with her back still turned towards him. "I know you haven't forgotten how it was. When we walked around Biovolt together, and how everyone would cower in fear at the power we held, and how we never had to repeat ourselves when saying an order. They listened and obeyed our every order without question." Tala was right behind her now, and he put his hand on her shoulder. She flinched at his touch and quickly moved away from him.

She turned to look at him now. "Your right, I haven't forgotten anything that went on in there, and I haven't forgotten the…power. But do you really think that the feelings get out here without you, Boris, and Biovolt aren't as good as the feelings I had in there? It feels a hell of a lot better to do things and win things with my team. Besides," she smirked, "what you get in Biovolt isn't respect, its fear. What I have with my team is real respect, none of us are afraid of each other. So you, Boris, and Biovolt can just burn in hell." Silence stretched out between them now, but it was interrupted by the roar of applause and cheers from the stadium as the announcer announced that Rei had won his match against Lee.

"The next match will be the Bladewreckers against the Majestics, and after they're match it will be the Demolition Boys against the All-Stars. The next match will begin in about an hour, so everybody can get prepared."

Alicia smirked again. "You heard the announcements, my team is up next." Alicia said as she walked by him. "I will never abandon my team for Biovolt." Then she was gone.

"We know that already, that's why we're taking your team too." Tala said to himself with a mischievous smirk as he walked back to his team's locker room.

A/N That just seemed like the perfect place to end it. Don't you think so? Lol. Anyways this is way shorter than I planned for this chappie to be, so I'm gonna split this one into parts. This will be chapter 9 part 1 and the next one will be chapter 9 part 2. Don't worry Alicia it will still be revolved around you, and some even better news is that you'll be spending a lot of time wit Kai. I've got it all planned out, but I'm gonna prolong everyone's agony and not post it until like Sunday. Muahaha coughs hahaha! Happy Thanksgiving!
