Note: This is how this story works; I make it up as I go along. Sounds odd, yes. The method is strange, yes. But, I get the idea, I write it down. It goes in the story. How this got started was, I got the idea of her jacking his computer, than it just built up from there. Its actually written all down in one document in my computer. Every time I go to write, I make a page break and type away. Each chapter is the new addition onto the story. This is roughly pre-events of movie. I don't know when the movie will kick off. You'll see as you read along. At the end, I will prehaps write a story analysis. I'm actually developing themes, motifs and symbols in this. Well disclaimer, blah blah. Enjoy.

Chapter 2.

By the time Blade had returned from a night full of searching, Scud and Lex were laying on the floor, panting like crazy. Scud with a black eye and some bite marks, Lex sporting a pretty nasty split lip. Between their laborus breaths, they let giggles slip out. Blade loomed over them like the over protective brother he tryed to be. Alexia was like his little sister. He felt even more obligated to watch over her due to the fact that she was Whistler's daughter. Unbeknownst to them, they caught their breath and started up a decent conversation as Blade stood there, watching them intently.

"So, what were you doing in here anyway?"

"I was bored, looking for something to do."

"You know, I've known you long enough to sense when you're sneaking around my shop. Planning on starting your own project or something?"

"Hm, maybe."

"Sorry to break it to ya Lex, but you're not the most talented mechanic around."

"Aw, Scud, why do you have to dash my dreams like that? There goes my hopes of being a mechanic..."

She faked a sniffle and Scud shook his head as he stood up, dusting off his pants. Blade stood behind him and his eyebrows rose in a curious manner. It was a good thing he was wearing sunglasses, for they hid the amused and twinkling look in his eyes.

"Having fun?"

Scud nearly jumped three feet out of his shoes as he whirled around to face Blade. He pressed his hand to his chest and let out a weak laugh.

"Jesus Christ, B. You can't go around scaring people like that. It's enough you already look the part."

Alexia laughed as she got to her feet as well, pointing at Scud. Than as soon as her laughter came, it left for she turned to face Blade with a stone cold look.

"Did you find out anything?"

Tracking mode was switched on. She even forgot about the fact that there was a line of blood streaming from her lip, down her chin. Blade cleared his throat and pointed to his own lip, indicating the fact that she should attend to her's. She blinked and stared at him, than gently pressed her fingers to her lip and stared dumbfound at her bloody fingers. She made an O' shape with her mouth and quickly turned around to dash to the nearest bathroom.

Blade just looked to Scud with an amused expression.

Scud stared back, a hard and angry look in his eyes.

"You know B, how long you gonna keep this up?"

Blade's face hardened.

"She's not a little kid anymore. How long are you going to keep her from getting out there? She wants to help you so bad, she'd chop off her own leg to help you find him. She loves him, and she can't accept the fact that he was turned. The least you can do is let her fulfill her hearts desire. She wants to help you track him so bad. Stop being so over protective of her..."

"You two sure have fun with your pillow talk, huh?"

Scud turned red in the face.

"Now wait a minute...!"

Scud did not like being accused like this. Not one bit.

"And how long did you guys stay up, laying in your bed, talking?"

Scud let out a small growl and almost made an advance towards him, to yell right in his face. How dare B make assumptions like that. Blade just stood there, as calm as could be, with his arms crossed.

"B.. you're really pushing it. It's nothing like that. She just bitches about it everyday, and I have to hear it!"

Blade just turned around and left.
