Disclaimer: I do not own Beyblade or any of its characters, Beyblade's and Bitbeasts and…you get the picture. My heart only goes out to Michael Parker and as I know I said this in chapter 1 he isn't in this story but he is still mine!
Rating: PG 13 – Due to some swearing and violence.
Alex had followed Lee into a little cavern of a hut for a festive meal. Lee took the chair and pulled it back for Alex to sit on and she did. Ray sat opposite her, jealously flaming in his feline eyes. Alex didn't seem to mind at all about the flame of jealously that flashed through Ray's eyes, in fact it just made her smile with the fact that she was better than him anyway.
Flash, just laid outside the window staring down the food that was being made through the doors of the cavern. He didn't seem to mind that he was plonked outside while the rest were indulging in a meal fit for a king, in fact grass pleased him the most.
"Well Alex, let's hear what you have been doing for the past 10 years away from your home village, hmm?" Lee asked out of curiosity.
"Yeah let's hear what you have been doing since you betrayed us!" Kevin retaliated giving her an evil smirk from where he sat next to Ray.
Alex's smile disappeared and a face of a thousand demons arose. She hadn't took that as a compliment, more like an insult to her.
"Actually you little bastard, I didn't betray you, neither did Ray I did the same as him you screwball. I have been perfecting my techniques of my Beyblading style and kicking arse, so if you would be so kind to piss off my case ok!" Alex replied with a cold glare to him, Kevin sunk back in to his chair daring not to make another comment.
Food arrived on the table for them all; it had taken all they're harvesting to make this special meal for Alex. Chickens, pigs and beef and… Minted lamb, Alex's favourite meal of all time.
"Dig in!" Came the chef's voice, as the clatter of knives and forks left the napkins, as they did as they were told and ate till the cows came home.
"So Ray what you been doing since I have been away, getting pissed, having sex –
Ray retaliated with, " Before you say it I haven't been having sex with Mariah."
Ray hated the way she thought he was a stud, which he wasn't at all.
"That a surprise" Alex replied a little too sarcastically.
Ray twisted his face at her menacingly; he had never been so insulted in his life. She had changed, and not for the better. Ray knew she had been a little too bossy when she was little but this was no excuse now. She was 14 and still acting like a little baby at the zoo.
Alex was sitting next to Mariah, but in her official language, called her fur-ball. Seemly enough Mariah was also jealous of the way she would act towards her and her team. She knew that Ray wanted to be her friend, her close friend but Mariah had stopped that from happening by getting lessons off Ray.
Alex didn't need anyone to give her teaching lessons for Beyblade, only when she ushered Lee over to have a battle with him once and a while, just to see how she was comparing to the Team Captain of The White Tigers.
"Errr… what's with the hair… still wild as usual I see?" Mariah contemplated, looking at the back of Alex's blonde hair, it was all in tangles of mess from lack of combing over the years but that hadn't seemed to bother her that much.
"Yeah well you know a gal can't do much with her hair in the wilderness," Alex replied, again a little too sarcastically, "When you are riding Flash of course"
Mariah just slumped back down in her chair with a 'hmph' to Alex which she didn't mind.
Ray's anger was now simmering inside of him. Who does she think she is the queen or something? Well, she is not and I'm gonna make sure of that.
"I've had enough!" Ray yelled, causing the Elders to jump back in shock. He had banged his two fists on the table with brute force, causing Alex to stop taking sips from her drink to give him a look of a devil.
Alex stood up, "What the hell is your problem! I'm just fooling around!"
"Fooling around! More like mocking my teammates! And me since you came here!" Ray yelled back, faces almost touching.
"It's just my way of having fun that's all! I can't help it if I mouth off about people! So just get off my fucking case right Kon!"
Before Ray could counter, Alex pushed her chair away and stormed out and in to the nearest cavern available. The door slammed and was nearly took off it's hinges hadn't it been for the hinges it would have momentarily came off.
Flash followed in to the small cavern with great difficulty with his wings of course but finally managed to get in and comfort his master.
