"TWIST!" Eli shouted towards his old team mate and friend. Twist stopped in his tracks and turned his head toward the Shane, looking back at him with anger on his face. He looked at Eli in silence and turned away and started to walk but before he could walk off the Shane called his name again. Twist got really pissed off from the blue haired brat and turned around to give that boy something to shout about and before he could say anything, the Shane was already near him ready to grab his arm so he could not walk away.
"Wha…what do you want with me Eli? Can't you leave me alone?" Twist yelled at the Shane.
"I can't Twist…. I've been thinking about you way too much to let the opportunity of talking to you go away" The Blue haired boy replied. Twist stood there in shock at the brat's word and got a little freaked out by what he was saying. Twist even blushed a little, it sounded like the stupid boy had a crush on him or something.
"Twist….. I don't want to fight you anymore. I know there is good in you. I need you with me and with the team Twist." Eli continued, yelling at Twist getting a little more frustrated than Eli usually is. Twist just looked at the boy, with nothing to say and nothing to do but stand in front of the boy. Twist was in deep thought on what to say to the boy who he betrayed….. No not betrayed, it was all for revenge.
"Eli….. I was NEVER your friend and I never will be" Twist finally replied to Eli. Twist's word shocked Eli, he really believed that Twist was a good friend. Soon Eli's face sadden as Twist turned his back at him and started to walk away. Eli did the same thing too and started to walk away, back to the spot he was sitting. Twist did not look back toward his nemesis but before he could walk away for good Eli started to talk.
"You know, I never wanted to be the hero of Slugterra" Twist just stood again listening to the boy's words.
"Well….. Not at first anyways. It was my dad who pushed me to become a slinger, I just, well my dream was to become a musician" Eli chuckled. "My dad trained me to be the Shane of Slugterra, I was trained even when I did not want to train, and I just wanted to play. I saw how important it was for him to be the hero of Slugterra so I just went with it…. My dream died and I never played again and when my father was gone I did nothing by train. I did not want to disappoint my father." Eli continued, sitting at that same spot, talking to his reflection in the water not knowing if Twist had left yet. Twist was still there and this time with a different look on his face. If eli never walked in his father's footsteps then he and eli would have never have met. He probably would have never acted out revenge on him and his gang…. The Shane gang would have never had formed. Before twist walked away forever he had a little story of his own.
"I really looked up to your father and believed he was a great man, until he saved me and not my father, never leaving us alone…. Those slugs, was our way of getting food. The trade would have fed me and my father. WE WAS POOR AND HOMELESS AND YOU FATHER LEFT ME A ORPHEN AT A CHILDRENS HOME!" Eli thought twist had already left but hearing him say those words about his father and about his past really broke him, he was sad that his father really done this but how come he blamed his father. Will Shane did not know of Twist's family situation, if he knew he probably would have helped. Eli felt that maybe his father was a bit responsible for Twist's father's death. Eli, wanting to be a better person felt it would be best if he apologized. Eli felt it was best and maybe mend the hatred between them.
"Twist, I'm sor…." Eli cut his word short as she turned around to give Twist an apology but the blond head boy was already gone. Eli looked on still wishing Twist was still, his blue eyes filled with tears of sadness. After everything he and Twist had been thought, he still wanted to be Twist's friend. He did really think about Twist a lot, a lot more than he should. The short time he had with Twist he always felt a connection towards him. He never really had a best friend on the surface and he could felt he tell Twist about the surface one day, he really trusted him. He would have done anything for him, even die for him. Eli clutched his chest with his hand, it was filled with pain like he just broke up from a relationship. Eli's eyes filled with more tears that streamed slowly down his face, he quickly wiped them off with the arm ends of his blue hoodie. He knew he was acting silly, crying over Twist like that, he was acting like he had some sort of crush, acting like a little school girl who was heartbroken. Eli thinking about all of this made him think he was being a bit stupid. He started thinking about heading back to the Shane hide out as it was coming up to the early hours and the rest of the team would be up soon. Eli picked himself up and wiped the bits of dirt he had on his trouser, put his hands in the pockets of his hoody and started to walk back home.
