Chapter 4:
The next day, the Als were at the dead end road, as Tai, Sage, and Roxie walked towards them. "All right. Remember the plan?" Roxie whispered to Tai and Sage. "Gotcha!" Tai responded. "Whatever," Sage said. "You guys know what to do?" Alex whispered to Al and Allie. "You betcha!" Al said. "Sadly," Allie said.
Once all six of them were near each other, they instantly smiled. "Hey listen, we got off on the wrong foot. Why not we start over and try again?" Roxie suggested. "I couldn't agree more," Alex said, "My name's Alex." Roxie shook her hand. "Interesting. Usually, Alex is a guy's name, but there's nothing wrong with being called Alexander," she responded. Alex fake a laugh. "Funny, but I don't have that type of name. It's Alexandra," she explained. "Whoops. My bad. My name is Roxie."
"Ah, that's nice. That rhymes with a fox. I'm not surprised that that's what you're part of, is it?" Roxie fake a smile, as she gritted her teeth. "Not...at...all..."
Allie shook her head. "Oh, dear." Sage rolled her eyes. "Anyway, hi. We've already met, but my name is Sage," she said. "It's a pleasure meeting you, Sage. My name is Allie," Allie said, shaking her hand. "Likewise. I don't wanna sound rude, but isn't it weird wearing a sock hat?" Sage asked. Allie touched her hat. "Um...I've been told that before, but...it never really cross my mind being unusual," she responded. "I just wanted to ask, because for some reason, it reminds me of Double D..." Sage said, smiling to herself. Allie smiled to herself as well.
"It does, don't it?"
"Hi! I'm Tai!" Tai said. "Nice to meet you! I'm Al!" Al responded. "You wanna be friends?" Tai asked. "Of course!" Al agreed. "Awesome! Let's go find Ed and we'll all be friends," Tai suggested. "Okay! Finding Big Ed is always part of my to-do list," Al said. "What's the others?" Al thought for a moment. "Um...playing with chickens?" "Me, too! Especially the hens!"
Tai and Al walked away.
"Do you want to walk around and have a conversation? So that way, we can get to know each other?" Allie suggested. "Sure," Sage agreed. Then, they walked away. "So, I guess it only leaves us," Roxie said. "Sad, isn't it?" Alex responded. Roxie laughed. "You are so funny. So, do you do anything fun or are you always a big mouth?" Alex smiled. "Usually, I hang out with the Eds. Mostly Eddy," she said. Roxie scoffed. "Why? Eddy's no fun," she said. Alex shrugged. "The same reason why you hang out with him." Roxie squinted her eyes. "Touché..." That's when she saw Eddy walking. "Speak of the devil..."
Alex turned around. "Hey, Shorty!" she called out to him. Eddy glared at them. "Oh, great. You two...what are y'all doing, anyway? Trying to kill each other?" he asked, crossing his arms. "Nope. We're actually good friends now," Roxie said. Eddy looked surprised. "Say what?" "It's true. We finally settle our differences," Alex explained. Eddy scoffed. "Whatever. I'm trying to think of a scam." "Where's your sidekicks?" Roxie asked. "Beats me. I haven't seen them today," Eddy said. "Well, it's not the Eds without the trio together. Come on, Eddy. Let's go find Ed and Double D," Alex said, taking Eddy's hand.
Eddy didn't notice. "Maybe I should open a diner! Wait, already did that." Eddy and Alex walked away, as Roxie raised an eyebrow. "Did she just...nah!"
With that, Roxie catch up to them.
*Yawn* I hate school...why does it exist? Oh, and review! ;)
