Chapter Four-To See or Not To See
The sun glistens through the breezy trees in Elmore Park. From afar, there are two figures shown but when closer, we start to see Alpha and Carrie walking throughout the park talking. Wanting to get to know about each other. The two of them went to sit on the swings and as they sat, Alpha began to speak, "This place isn't bad so far." Carrie was confused at that statement for a moment, but then knew what he meant. "Well yeah. This place is always weird and strange due to some idiots," Carrie saying, referring to Gumball and Darwin, "But you're right, it isn't so bad, and that what make me feel like this place is home." she added. They sat still in the swings taking view, and as they did, they saw Gumball running around blindfolded. Only after for a few seconds, he was running straight toward a sturdy tree, then in a flash, "Ouch." both Alpha and Carrie said, seeing the blue cat make impact with the tree, face first. The two of them went to check on Gumball for his safety as Alpha asked, "Oh shit, Gumball, are you alright?" with concern.
"Oh maaaaaaaaan. Don't worry, I…feel…fine…" Gumball said before laying on the grass,.
"He should have expected it." Carrie said. "Wait a minute. Where is Darwin?" Alpha asked, raising an eyebrow, wondering. As they turned around from Gumball, they looked for a short moment before finally seeing Darwin. The fish was running but was stopped when he tripped over a curb, prompting him to fall down, face first as well, much to Darwin's luck.
Carrie and Alpha both picked up the two, still unconscious and moved them under a large tree for shading. The ghost girl sat down on the grass and the light grey wolf laid back on the tree. Just when the both them were about to relax someone shouted at them.
"Well, well, well. If it isn't the fur ball that got lucky last time." is was Tobias.
"I kicked your ass and that wasn't luck." Alpha told Tobias, getting irritated. Tobias wasn't by himself, along with him was Banana Joe, as the name says, he's a banana, but at his age, he had gotten as tall as Tobias but was a slight shorter. Gumball had gained conscious and as he gotten his eyesight became clear, he immediately stood up, having a feeling that this conversation might be anything but friendly.
"Come on man, just leave us alone." Alpha telling the rainbow colored humanoid as he took a few steps forwards and trying to ease up the tension.
"Yeah, just go, you headband wearing jerk." Carrie added, noticing that other people had left the park. It was just them here.
"Psssh. Come on. Man up and fight fur ball." Tobias telling Alpha.
Carrie than spoke up "We don't have time for your shi-"
"Hey why don't you shut your face up, you loser emo freak!" Tobias interrupting and insulted Carrie, she looked at Alpha, he was pissed as his body was tensed up. Something came over him, made him angry, it was Tobias's statement that had set him off.
"That's it!" Alpha shouted at Tobias, ran at him, and punched him, causing him to fall back on the ground. Carrie was the most shocked out of the group seeing Alpha doing something like that. Alpha punched Tobias once. Twice. Three times but was stopped by Banana Joe grabbing his shoulder, turning him around, and landing a blow to the stomach. "Stay here Carrie." Gumball telling her before running up to Banana Joe as he tackled him. The fight was on to the four.
Tobias had gotten up and went after Alpha as he punched him in the face, Alpha did the same. The two when battling it out but wasn't too long as Tobias threw a punch and Alpha swerved to the left, making him miss. Alpha threw a left hook, getting a direct hit as it made Tobias take a few steps back. With Gumball and Banana Joe, the fruit had gotten up from the tackle by punching Gumball in the chin then kicking him off. Gumball had toughen up from the past years when he told his parents that his should join a boxing class. His mother didn't like the idea at first but had eventually let him join to keep him from being picked on at school. Banana Joe kept on throwing punches, but Gumball guarded, blocking most of the attack. When Gumball had an open chance, he threw a quick strike, then shoved Banana Joe to a tree nearby.
Back with Alpha and Tobias, the multi-colored humanoid have grabbed a steel pipe off the ground. He was swinging it, trying to hit Alpha like a piñata, luckily, Alpha dodge the swings but in the next second, Tobias swung the weapon to Alpha's lower side, and making contact with it. "Ahhh!" Alpha groined, then grabbed Tobias's wrist, twisted it as it made him disarm the steel pipe. Alpha had gotten the weapon and threw it away from them. Gumball was throwing rapid punches at Banana Joe, who was backed up against a tree. His punches were tiring Banana Joe but just when Gumball let his guard down for a second, Banana Joe shoved him, threw a heavy punch to the face, and grabbed Gumball, putting him backed up against the tree. Banana Joe put his hand on Gumball's face and bashed Gumball's head to the tree. Gumball's head hurt really bad, irritated, Gumball got loose of Banana Joe's grasp and punched his stomach with his left, then his right and back with his left. The fruit was unbalanced, so Gumball threw his right fist, making contact with Banana Joe's face, and then Gumball did the same with his left. Then right. Left. Right. Left. Right. Left. The banana was dizzy, so Gumball did an uppercut, landing a successful blow. Banana Joe was now laying on the floor.
Alpha was keeping a distance as Tobias was throwing heavy punches at him but failing to do so. Alpha managed to get close, but Tobias grabbed him and kneed him in the stomach. Alpha pushed him away and when Tobias did a side kick, Alpha grabbed his leg and punched his knee, then let go of it. Tobias was standing, unguarded as he was holding his knee. Alpha finally ended the fight it with a roundhouse kick to the face as blood was spitted out from Tobias's mouth.
Alpha was walking back to where Carrie was, Gumball was standing there as well, waiting for him. Alpha was holding the lower side of his body with one, the spot where Tobias had hit him at with the steel pipe and was slightly limping because Tobias had also swung there but Alpha didn't notice till now.
"Oh my god, Alpha! Are you alright?" Carrie worrying.
"Yeah, don't worry. I'm…ugh…fine." Alpha replied. He then almost collapsed but was supported back up by Carrie. "Oh come on Carrie, you don't have to do this." he explained.
"You're right, I don't have to. I want to."
After hearing that, Alpha decide to put his arm around Carrie's shoulders while she supported him.
Tobias and Banana Joe were badly hurt so the two of them decide to leave while they can before Tobias quietly said "You will be sorry."
Gumball was on Darwin's side when he finally woke up.
"That was a nice nap." the fish said in a happy tone.
"Wait. You were asleep?!" Carrie asked him.
"Yeah. What did I miss?" Darwin said and Alpha and Carrie just shrugged before move on.
"No wait seriously, what I missed?!" Darwin asking again.
"I'll explain to you later." Gumball told Darwin.
"Gosh. You need to watch out for yourself Alpha." Lexy told him. The group were at the Watterson residence after from what happened at the park. Lexy handed an ice bag to Alpha and to Gumball to ease out the pain. Gumball immediately held his ice bag to the back of his head before speaking.
"Man. I got a bad headache from that asshole, Banana Joe." Alpha was about to put his ice pack on his area as well after he took off his shirt showing his nicely built tone. As he took it off, this made Carrie blush like mad as she was trying to hide it. Lexy insisted that they all watch a movie, all of agreed since it would help pass the time. Gumball instead, told the others that he was going upstairs to rest peacefully since of his headache. After the blue cat left, Darwin, Lexy, Carrie, and Alpha was starting to watch the movie 'Nightmare on Elmore Street.' The movie goes on for a while, and Alpha was having a good time since that he was sitting with Carrie. After the movie, Alpha had his shirt put back on and was going for the door but stopped to turn around to the group.
"Hey Carrie, would you like to walk with me to my house? It's just down the street." Alpha asking her.
"Sure, I'd like that." she replied with a smile and went with Alpha.
"Later you guys." Alpha said to Lexy and Darwin.
"Take care. " Darwin told to the duo.
The sun was setting, giving off an orange glow to the town, as Carrie and Alpha had reached his house.
"So how are you feeling?" Carrie was asking him.
"I'm feeling better." Alpha answering her question.
"What happened back there at the park-"
"I know…he should have expected it." Alpha interrupting her.
"No one has ever stood up to me like that." Carrie continued.
"I was just doing the right thing for a friend."
Carrie just leaned up to Alpha and kissed him on the cheek. "Thank you." Carrie said sincerely. Alpha was rubbing the back of his head sheepishly as he said "No problem" while he was blushing making Carrie giggle. Alpha just smiled.
