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.
It was early morning, the sun was rising through the Chinese mountain ranger where they were resting.
Alex hadn't gotten a bit of sleep last night, the argument just kept coming back to haunt her out of her wildest dreams. Instead to take her mind off it, she had been stroking Flash on his head while he was asleep on his master's legs. Totally stopping the circulation.
Almost immediately she heard pitter-patter of footsteps across the village, or in the hedge growth surrounding the village. She couldn't make out where it was coming from but she could hear it.
Her door then tilted open to show Lee popping his head round the edge of it. He had came to give her a lesson not to mouth off to people as soon as she saw them.
"Erm…Hey Alex…mind if I join you?"
"Sure…why not" She didn't seem so keen to talk to him, or anyone at this moment in time, though if it helped to patch things up with Ray and the Elders then why not.
"Look Alex, I know it's your personality to mouth off to people but you know it could be considered as an insult. Don't take this personally, but couldn't you just once give that attitude a rest"
"It's in my nature, it's in Flash's nature too to mouth off. But I will try Lee I will. But I'm surprised you aren't annoyed with me mocking your team-mates are you?"
"Yes I am but I am trying not to show it Alex. So how about we get some training in after dinner? Let's see if you have become any better than me hmm? Bet not" Lee stood up from the bamboo chair and left Alex to think about what he had just said.
Alex stretched up from her bed while Flash had fell off and was still very much asleep on the floor.
"Come on Flash, we got training in an hour so GET UP!" With that she gave Flash a hard kick to the stomach and he jolted awake in surprise.
He stood up, trying to give her 'I can't be arsed look' but he got in to her bit chip non-the less. Alex got up and went for brekky in the nearby cavern.
When she entered she ignored the eerie silence that hung upon her like a web. She got a plate and started getting anything in particular, as long as it was edible. She sat down away from any other person and started making her way through her meal.
When she had finished she had found that a loud burp came from her mouth and echoed through the mountains. Even Tyson would have been ashamed.
She was making her way to the top of the ever favourite mountain for a spot of Beyblading with Lee, if he was there when she got there.
