3. Alice
"That's pretty…" Shin said. The sound of the sea gulls blended beautifully with the sound of waves and the salty breeze.
"YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYY!!!!" Ed ran to the water and started playing in it.
"Edo!! We can play afterwards. First let's go to the beach house!" Faye called out. Ed turned.
"Haiiiiii, Faye-Faye Nee-san!!!" She chirped.
They got back into the van and Spike drove with Andy telling him the directions. Everyone slid their windows down to enjoy the fast fresh breeze. Julia forgot about her lovely hairdo and enjoyed the breeze.
"This is refreshing!" she commented.
"It is, isn't it, Vicious oops Vishi-Vishi-us!" Spike said teasing him. Vicious stared out of the window. "Hmmmm…" he said. "Yes," He muttered.
"How long will it be?" Lin asked. "We'll reach in about 10 minutes," Andy said. "Whew! I'm hungry again," Lin said.
"I want some tea," Spike said, his eyes on the road. "All you want is tea!" Julia said, "Every time he comes home the first thing he wants is tea. When we go to the café he wants tea! Tea in the morning, tea in the afternoon, tea in the evening!"
"Hey, sis, that's none of your business," Spike said coolly. "Whatever!" Julia said.
"Okay! Okay! Stop fighting!" Andy barged in. "You don't need to barge in every time, Andy," Faye said.
"Don't teach me, Faye oops Faye-Faye!!" Andy teased. "Shut up, Andy-Candy!" Faye said.
Spike smirked. "Andy-candy?! Pretty good, Faye!" he commented. Shin chuckled, "Andy-candy?"
Ed at once spoke up, "Andy is a candy, a very dandy candy, when eaten become sandy!!! Andy-candy-dandy-sandy!!"
Everyone laughed. "Make some more of that sometimes, Ed," Faye said. Lin smirked. "When are we gone get there, Andy-Candy-Dandy-Sandy?" He asked.
Andy scowled. "Shut up, Lin-dust bin!!"
Spike burst out laughing so did Shin.
"Oh my gosh, brother!!" Shin said.
"Lin-Lin in the dust-bin!!!"
Ed sang. Everyone burst out laughing. Andy pointed out to a pretty wooden house. "That's my beach house!" He pointed excitedly.
It was pretty. It faced the sea. Though it was only 2 storied and really small it looked pretty. It had a small fence. Spike stopped the car.
"There," Spike said as he pressed the brake and stopped the engine. Everyone got out and stretched.
"Ahhhh….that's so good!" Shin said as he stretched himself. "Shin-san!!!!" Ed squealed.
"What Ed?" Shin asked. "Ice-cream!! Ice-cream!! Ed want ice-cream!!" Ed said dancing around.
"Ok, you just get fresh and then we'll ask Andy… ah…Andy-Dandy to tell us where they sell ice-creams, ok?"
"HAIIIIIIIIIIIIII!!!!" Ed said walking unevenly on the ground.
Andy turned to them. "Hey, guys, you go in I'll just have some work." He said.
"What work?" Faye asked. "Well, I need to meet someone. One of my childhood friend stays there," he pointed to a house long away. "I wanna just say hello and come."
He ran of. "Ok, come soon!!!" Faye shouted.
"Hey, they have a small garden here!" Julia said as she pointed out to small patch of lawn and small flowers.
They walked to the door. Spike stopped causing the rest of them to bump into one another.
"Hey! Watch it!!" Faye shouted. "You idiot! We don't have a key to open the door," Spike said.
"Didn't he give the key?" Vicious asked quietly. "Nope." Shin said. "So then we'll have to wait outside till he comes?!" Julia asked worried.
"Andy, you lunkhead!!!" Faye shouted and kicked the door. She looked away and suddenly heard a creak. "Faye!! You opened the door!!" Julia exclaimed.
"The door wasn't locked in the first place!" Shin said. "Let's go in," Lin said.
They entered. The furniture was not costly but it looked really pretty. Each table had a vase on it with fresh flowers. The room was simple yet tastefully decorated.
"Wow, it's really comfy!" Faye said as she sat on a chair. "Hmmm…it's nice, really nice," Julia said as she looked out of the window facing the sea. It was really beautiful.
"Isn't it wonderful, Edo?" Shin asked Ed who was busy with her head inside one of the vases. Ed looked up. "Haiiiiii, Shin-san!!" she squealed.
"Did you like it Vicious?" Spike turned to a very quiet Vicious. Vicious nodded slowly, "Yes" he muttered.
"Hmmm…I wonder where Andy is," Lin said looking around. Suddenly they heard footsteps. They looked back to see a girl coming downstairs.
She saw them and stopped. Everyone looked at her.
She had curly, honey dew locks just like Julia but they were much much lighter. They swept past her elbow and reached her waist. Drawn back into a ponytail two locks of hair framed her pale face gracefully. Her turquoise eyes shone brightly as they scanned the newcomers.
After a moment she smiled, her rosy lips making a graceful curve. Everyone smiled back. No words were exchanged for a minute.
Suddenly they heard a dog bark loudly.
She suddenly snapped back. She turned to them and bowed and ran into the kitchen and out of the back door.
"Who was she?" Faye asked. "Dunno, but she was damn pretty," Spike said. "Hmmm…I wonder who she is," Julia said.
"I've seen her somewhere," Lin said all of a sudden. "Where?" Shin asked.
"I…I can't remember…" Lin said trying to recollect, "Oh yes!!! I know where!!"
Everyone turned to him looking at him in interest. Lin looked at them.
"Yes, I remember, I saw her picture in a photo with Andy at his house!!" He said.
Everyone looked at each other. "That means that she's…she's…" Julia said. "Andy's…Andy's… girlfriend!!" Spike finished. Then he suddenly said, "How come we didn't know about this?!" Spike demanded, "I never thought Andy would hide such a thing from us!"
"She was pretty," Shin said. "Yeah, he's lucky to have such a pretty girlfriend!" Lin said. ((A/N: Doesn't sound like Lin but ignore it!!!))
Faye frowned. "She's not that pretty. She's not," Faye said. Spike smirked. "Jealous, Faye? Oooohhh!! Faye is jealous! Faye is jealous!!" Spike teased.
"Of course not!! Shudup!!!" Faye shouted red in face. Spike laughed. "Look at her!!!! She's blushing!!" Lin said.
"I'm NOT!!!!"
"Yes, you are!!"
"Shin!! Am I blushing?!!" Faye shouted on Shin. "Ahh…actually…yes…" Shin said nervously.
"WHAT!!!!"
"Hey, what's up with the noise level?!!" Andy entered the room.
"Andy!! Took you long!" Faye said. "God, Faye, you looked red. Are you ok?" Andy asked concerned.
Spike started laughing. "What?!" Andy said surprised. "No…nothing!" Spike said straightening himself.
"Oh, you're here!!" they heard a voice. They turned to look at the girl on the threshold. "Yeah, how are you?" Andy asked. She gave him the same but more cheerful smile.
"Guys, this is Alice, my…" Andy began but was interrupted by Lin.
"We know her," he said. Andy looked surprise. "You do?"
"Yeah, she's your…your girlfriend, right?" Spike said. Andy stared at them for a minute and a pink tinge appeared on Alice's cheek. Then he lowered his face and snickered. He looked up and burst into laughter.
"Why is he laughing?" Faye thought.
"You idiots," he said between his laughs, "She's not my girlfriend, you jackasses!! She's my younger sister!!!" he clutched his stomach and laughed more. He clutched the corner of the table besides him and supported his weight on it.
Alice looked away embarrassingly. Everyone looked at Spike. "What?!" Spike asked.
Everyone looked at him with shifty eyes. "Spike, you were the one who told us that," Lin said. "Yeah, it's all your fault," Faye said.
"Ok! Ok! Now time for an introduction!!" Andy said as he motioned Alice to stand besides him. "This is Alice, my younger sister."
Alice bowed. "H-Hajemamashite!" she said in a soft voice.
"Alice this is Shin," Andy pointed out to Shin who held out his hand. Alice placed her hand in his and instead of shaking hands he kissed her hand. "Hello, sweet lady," he said looking into her eyes. She gave him a cheerful smile. "Hello," she said.
"Then this is Lin."
Lin just shook hands that's all and said a small and up-to-the-point hello.
"And Vicious."
Alice raised an eyebrow at the mention of his name. Since he didn't make a movement to shake hands she held out her hand. But Vicious simply bowed. Alice took her hand back in confusion and bowed. He didn't speak a single word.
"And Faye."
Faye looked kind of relaxed to know that she was only Andy's sister. She shook hands and said, "Hi! I'm Faye!" Alice said, "Hello! I'm Alice. Pleased to meet you!" the strange thing was that she spoke too formally.
"And this is her Edward Wong Hau Pepelu Turvisky The Fourth," Andy said as if he was reciting a poem. Alice looked at him in confusion. "Edward will do!" he said.
Alice bent to the adolescent. "Hello, Edward!!"
Ed looked up at her with huge ((A/N: Insert- Incredibly)) huge eyes. "Heeeeellloooo!!! What is your namey-namey?" Ed asked.
"Alice"
"Yaaaaaaayyyyyyy!!!! You are Alice-Alice-san!!!"
Alice raised her eyebrows at the mention of her new nick name. She found this boy amusing. "You're such a sweet boy!" Alice said smiling. "Ed no boy!! Ed is girl!!" Ed said. Alice looked in confusion. "You're a girl?" she asked. Ed nodded hard. She looked up at Andy.
"Julia."
Julia at once took her hands in hers. "Oh my goodness, you're blessed just like me with lovely hair!" she said. Alice blushed a bit.
"Oh my! You look like such a sweetheart!! Alice, you're really really cute! I'm soooo glad to meet you! I hope we can be friends!!!" Julia said as she shook her hands.
"Thank you," Alice said, "But I must compliment you on your beautiful eyes."
"Thanks!!" Julia said.
"And Spike."
Alice faced a 6'2" feet man and looked up. He held out his hand coolly to shake. Alice put her hand forward nervously than ever. As soon a the tips of their finger touched Alice felt an electric shock go through her body and she pulled her hand back blushing furiously.
Spike was surprised. Alice could sense his confusion. "S-sorry," she whispered not looking into his eyes.
Luckily the others didn't notice this bit of scene. They were busy with some other things. Andy called put to Alice, "Hey! Sis!! Make us something to eat! We're tired," Andy said as he sunk into the cushioned chairs with the others.
"Yes, would anyone here like to have muffins?"
Everyone's hands shot up. Alice smiled. "Ok and anything else?" she asked.
"Coffees for all of us except for Spike and Edo!" Shin said. "Edo like juice!!" Ed said flinging her hands in the air.
Everyone turned to Spike who was flipping through an old magazine as usual. He looked up.
"What?"
"What will you have, Spike?" Andy asked. "Oh yeah!! Black tea! No milk." He said and returned to the magazine.
"What are you reading?" Faye asked. "None of your business," Spike muttered not taking his eyes off the magazine.
"Yeah, what's so interesting in an old magazine?" Andy asked walking over to him. Spike hid the content from the magazine by putting the magazine under his arm.
"Spike, what are you reading?" Julia asked. He shook his head. "Let me read, you guys!" He said shooing them like they were animals.
"Hey, show that to me!!!!" Andy shouted as he lunged for the magazine and Spike moved from the chair only to have Andy's face smashed into the chair. Andy got up nursing his face. "Get him, guys!!" he shouted.
Everyone including Ed got up and walked towards Spike who looked in fear. "One!" Andy said. "Two!" Faye said.
"THUREEEEEE!!!!!" Ed shouted and everyone dashed at Spike who ran of at top speed with the magazine. Everyone dashed after him making a lot of noise on the hard wooden floor.
"ANDY'S SUPER MISSILE SHOT!!!!!!" Andy shouted and jumped on Spike and held his legs tightly causing him to slip.
"Owww…" Spike groaned. Julia quickly snatched the magazine while Shin pressed his hands to his back to avoid him from using his hand.
Lin and Vicious turned Spike around to face Andy.
"Are you ready Mimiko-Chan?!!!" Andy asked loudly. "Yup!!!!" Faye shouted, "Go ACTION KAMEN!!!!!!!"
"ACTION BEAM!!! Beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep!!!!!" Andy shouted and pretended to shoot missiles at Spike.
"OWWWWW!!!!" Spike shouted pretending to die. "I'm dead…"
Everything was quiet.
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!"
"That was fun!!" Julia said laughing. "Yeah, we used to do that every time when we used to be in school!!" Faye said laying back. "And every time Spike was the one who used to be caught!" Shin said as he brushed a tear away from his eyes. ((A/N: Those are tears of happiness))
"Anyway, what were you reading, Spike?" Andy asked. "Looks like…." Julia said inspecting the magazine. Her eyes widened and she let out a squeal.
"What?!! What was he reading?" Faye asked peeping into the magazine. Her eyes widened too. "OH MY!!!!" she shouted.
"What?" Andy asked impatient. "Spike was reading…Cinderella!!!" Julia squealed.
"WHAT?!!!!"
"I didn't know you liked fairytales, Spike." Andy said teasingly. "Shut up!!!" Spike snapped.
"Yeah, Spike, I never thought you love to read Cinderella," Lin said teasingly emphasizing certain words. Shin chuckled. "Edo, you heard that! Spike-person likes to read Cinderella!" he said to the adolescent.
Ed looked up. Everyone held their breath waiting for Ed to sing.
"Spike-person like to read Zinderella!!
Spike- person like to read fair-tale,
When everyone wonder what Spike-person is reading,
Spike-person says thriller,
But it is fairy-tale,
Which papa-papa read to Ed!!
Spike-person is in kindergarten,
He loves to read fairytale!
Zinderella! White-Snow! Big-hair-person!!
Spike-person dreams of being a princess-person!!"
Silence…one…two…three…
"AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA"
"That was AWESOME!!!" Lin said as he clutched his stomach. "Edo, you should make more!!" Shin shouted from between his laughs.
"Oh my! 'Spike-person dreams of being a princess-person' Princess-person?!!!" Faye said as she clutched her stomach.
"Hey, I think I can smell coffee…" Andy said as he sniffed in the air. Everyone at once put their noses in the air sniffing. "Hmmm…" Faye sighed. Sure enough Alice came out carrying a tray.
They all sat down to drink the coffee.

space raider- HI!!! ((Hugs)) Well, I tried to email you but it bounced back. I think maybe u should make a new mail id. Well, I know about Jet. I just felt an urge to add him there. He's such a nice guy. I just wonder that he does everything for Spike and Faye and they just ignore the poor man. He does cooking and washing and everything and infact he even allowed them to live on his ship. They just make fun of him and etc etc. Don't worry about rushing me cuz I understand about your excitement but please don't stop reading and reviewing!!
Anyways-
Well, I just had to add another character and I wanted an OC. Well, I couldn't think of anyone else. Those who have read 'Guns and Roses' know her well. I hope u guys don't mind Alice in the story. If you do then maybe I'll remove her but I just needed for the story to develop nicely. Maybe you'll realize that later.
And yes, don't jump to the conclusion that Alice is in love with Spike or something stupid like that it's only a little bit of infatuation. I'm sure some of you are… ((Looks at self in the mirror…blushes…pink background…random sakura petals and bubbles fly by …ooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhh))
