Love hurts a Luxray

[justify]Alex: He chuckled when she said, dude and then she took another bite. "Hey! When I said you can have the first bite, I didn't mean you could have the second one too!" he pouts jokingly like he was a little boy again. Alex reached for the small bowl of sour sundae for his share.

Zack: Zack went back to minding his own business and cleaning. He could hear the noises of the girl picking up her bag and then retreating back towards the exit in which she came in. There was a ton of cleaning left before he could leave anytime soon. Zack heard the girl stop at the door but he didn't look up to see why. After a moment of silence, she spoke of cleaning also. That's when he looked up. The other person was now also in view and inside the room. He quietly watched them shuffle around, picking up trash while he absently continued sweeping.

He was confused at why they would even want to stay and clean. Unlike them, he really wanted to go home and sleep. He couldn't help but laugh a bit when the younger looking girl slapped the older looking one on the back of the head. He fought the urge to laugh and then he thought, why not make it a little fun? It would certainly make it seem less time consuming. Zack picked up a crumbled wad of paper off the floor and tossed it across the room, landing right into the trash bin right next to them while they were still distracted. Score! was what he wanted to say but kept quiet about it, anticipating their wild glances toward the trash bin and then to him.[/justify]

Hex and Shade blinks as they heard the trashcan stir a bit. They both turn and did a double take between the boy and the trash can. Shade smirks, and swept up another piece of trash. "Wanna have fun eh?" Hex blinks at the boy and smiles a bit, but continues to clean. 'Let them have their fun...' She thought playfully, knowing Shade never really opens up to anyone.
Shade: Shade took a few steps back and eyed the can for a bit before shooting the piece of trash within the "hoop." She grins and points at the boy. "Beat that!!" Shade shouts, her bangs slightly swaying to her movements. "but then again..." She whispers. "you might be too weak!" She eyes Zack and wonders if she could get a competive feeling from him, or at least an irritated one.

OOC: It's okay. Are you still grounded though? And why is getting an A- so bad? It's still in the A range...

[justify]Zack: Zack smirked, pretending he had not heard the comment of him being weak and then picked up a small broken piece of a pencil and walked to the farthest corner away from the trash bin. He looked to see their face expressions before turning in the opposite direction away from them and the trash bin. He tosses the broken pencil over his shoulder, zipping through the center of the room and hitting the wall beside Shade instead but then as it lands, it is standing on the edge of the trash bin before actually falling into it. Zack turns around and shoots a glance to Shade that said without words, you were saying? Then a few thoughts came to him. He picked one and came over. "How about we have ourselves a little race of who can finish cleaning up first? We each have our own section of the room to clean," was his idea to finish his cleaning of the room as soon as possible. "I'll have half of the room while you two have the other half."

Alex: He laughed. "Okay." Alex smiled and then enjoyed the rest of the time with her. "Well Anna, it's getting late and I have to pick up my brother, wherever he is..." he said, realizing he had forgotten that Zack did not have the house keys and that he might be waiting outside.[/justify]

bold letters=Hex thoughts/words. Italic letters=Shade thoughts/words

HEX and SHADE: Hex smirks watching shade fume slightly seeing his actions as some sort of challenge. Though it was no surprise when shade smirks herself, obviously coming up with a plan. "Fine we'll take your challenge!" Shade replied confidently pointing at him dramatically, while Hex sweat drops in the back ground, feeling small against Shade's raging aura. But Hex nods never-the-less before heading to their side of the room. "I say this is unfair-" Shade began, about to say something very cocky, but Hex interrupted. "No it really isn't when you, don't have an idea how to clean, you'll just hold me down.." The haxorus girl casually said, scanning the room, ignoring glares from a certain zorua. Shade huffed and felt her will to win increase tremendously. "I know how to clean!" Hex looked at shade smirking. "then prove it..." This caused Shade to snap and she slammed her palm down on a nearby desk,fire gleaming within her green eyes. "Fine! lets get this contest started weak boy because i'm going to win.." Shade declares before glaring at Hex. "no helping..." Hex mentally cheered but nods in agreement. 'now all I have to do is sit and relax...' Hex told herself, sitting on a chair near the corner of the room. "Well ill signal the starting..." She coughs before raising her arm in the air. "on ready...get set...clean!!" Her armed arm slash downward, signaling the start, causing Shade to speed around her side of the room picking every bit of trash upon the ground.

OOC: Are you using red for your posts now? lol, like something written in blood on a dark surface. Haha just kidding. Hope I didn't scare you XD it looks kool. How does blue look on a black background?

[justify]Zack: Their argument shocked him. When he suggested the cleaning idea, he didn't mean for any fighting amongst each other. He was glad though that they really didn't start throwing fists at each other. It was unexpected of what happened but somehow for whatever reason he felt happy inside that Hex was not in the match. As soon as she signaled for them to start, Shade seemed to have turned on a rabid motor right inside of her, cleaning like crazy fast.

The image could have made Zack laugh but he had cleaning to do. He went back to his cleaning, no different than before this race started. He had no reason to...race to the finish when he had other things on his mind for fun. Zack continued but secretly sent a bolt of dancing lightning toward Hex, who was sitting on the sidelines. There was no harm in it. It only made a one word message made of lightning specifically for her. It read, "Hello" in a cute and funny font. Zack still cleaning not as fast as Shade but equally as fast at decreasing the amount of trash and dust on his side of the room.

Alex: Alex said good bye to Anna and left toward home. To his dismay, his brother, Zack was not where he had thought he would be so with no other choice left he went back in the direction of the school. It was dark out now also.[/justify]

[justify]Alex: In the palm of his hand was a glowing ball of electricity that lit the hallways of the dark school. Although Alex did not know for sure but he had a hunch that Zack was still here because the school doors and not to mention the school gates were still unlocked. Who else would still be roaming around school at this hour but that someone who is not at home where he was supposed to be - his brother. He walked down long hallways of vacant classrooms, turning corners of offices, and then as he turned yet another corner he thought he caught glimpse of another light in the hallways. "Zack..?" he said in a whisper like tone to himself and then started to follow quietly behind, his light now off to keep his cover in case it wasn't who he thought it would be.[/justify]

Shade: Shade zoomed around the room, her black hair flowing behind her in such a strange manner. Yet she did not slow down, because when it came to competition she tried her very best. But this doesn't mean she wasn't growing tired. Her legs began to burns slightly from the constant crouching down and standing up. Though she continued to force herself, peering at both Zack and Hex. 'Ill win!' Her green eyes gleamed as she dumped collected trash into the can.
Hex: Hex watched her friend, amused by her speed and determination that was obviously shown from her. But she lost focus when she felt her hair rise slightly.She looked around, searching for the source until, she noticed the message which was written out with lightning. 'How creative...' Hex thought, smiling softly, before looking up at Zack wondering how to reply. Finding no way to reply in any special way, she simply waved sheepishly. But as she does so, she carefully mouthed out the words "Good Luck" before smiling happily. This was the first time that someone actually treated her like a normal student, excluding Charlotte and Shade. She didn't understand why many people back away from her. The blades on her arms were frightening, sure that was understandable, but the fights she got into were just because she was defending someone's back. 'The blades are dull too...' She mumbles dryly, running her fingers through her hair.

OOC: whoa whoa, its morning already o[]o so shade and Zack have been cleaning for such a long time! kjfksfj

OOC: It's okay, no harm done : )

[justify]Zack: Zack smiled back at Hex. He purposely let Shade win the cleaning challenge just by one piece of torn note next to a seat. He had no interest in winning, really, just wanted some help to finish sooner and some distraction from his boredom. He picked up the note. "You were right. You beat me fair and square," he said, holding the piece of paper up. He also didn't care anymore if she continued to say he was weak, as long as she didn't overdo it. Zack tried to read the note in a failed attempt. There was not enough to even guess what it might have said because it was only a small torn piece. He shrugged and then tossed it in the trash bin.

Alex: He recognized the voice as the one he met only hours before. "Anna...?" he said as he slowly put back on his light in his palm, aiming at the ground and not in her face but it was enough to reveal both of them from the dark. "Wh..what are you doing here?" Alex questioned before he heard some rustling noise somewhere nearby.[/justify]

Shade grins, very pleased with herself, but then red tipped kit ears sprung up from her hair. The two fluffy ears twitched before slightly turning to the classroom door. Her grins vanishes, leaving a serious line, she looks at Hex who immediately takes the message. But before Hex could even leave, Shade stopped her. "Ill handle this~" Shade reassured, her own image suddenly changing into a male teacher. Hex sighs. This was a Zorua's ability to create such realistic illusions on herself, that even Hex herself couldn't notice. "hehe..." Shade giggles, stepping out of the classroom and towards the voices. In a deep, and rough voice she called out. "What are you students doing here!" He/She called, "Its far pass curfew! Tell me your names both of you!" Shade couldn't wait to see their reactions, especially Zack's brother, but of course she wasn't going to go too far... But it seems something else was there, and it turned out to be a ghost. Shade blinks not sure how to react to it at the moment.

Hex sighs, shaking her head at her friends ideas. But remembering there was still a person with her, she bows slightly. "Sorry about shade...she still has a wild side...obviously uoi can tell though" She laughs nervously, peering up at him. "Oh and thanks for letting Shade win!" Shade offered the male luxuray before her a bright smile before feeling blood rise to her cheeks. What was she doing, smiling at him like this, she barely knew him. 'Oh great now he will think im strange...!' She thought half heatedly, looking away.

[justify]Alex: Alex flashed the light in the direction of the noise and then a rather small rat scurried along the school floor and then out of sight again. But while he was temporarily distracted, a figure appears in front of them. Alex grabbed Anna's hand and pulled her gently behind him for cautious safety. He covered her quite well, protecting her from the unknown ghostly figure.

He knew well that Anna wasn't afraid and that she was fully capable of taking care of herself but he just wanted to be certain that she didn't get hurt while he was there with her. Another person then appeared but this one was solid unlike the first. An adult was still on school grounds? Something was fishy about the guy though. Alex did not answer the man's question. Instead he kept quiet.

He wasn't going to give a stranger his name and neither was he going to give him Anna's name. He still held her behind him but allowed her to peek over his shoulder if she really wanted to. The ghost, however seemed to stay in one spot with no movement of any sort. It didn't even seem to be of any harm to them, not now anyway.

"Who are you?" he asked the man, deciding that the ghost could wait a little bit since it had no life's time to waste anyway.

Zack: Shade had a suspicious idea and went out of the room. Zack didn't know what she was going to do but he smiled when Hex (I think you put Shade's name instead of Hex) thanked him for letting Shade win. He also noticed she returned to her shyness as she said so.

He didn't want to make her feel more insecure so he changed the subject. "Come on, we're done here and I think we need to make sure someone doesn't get themself into trouble," he said, gesturing towards to door.

That was when he heard someone other than Shade talk outside in the hallway. "What's my brother doing here...?" It took another minute to realize. Oh no! He turned to Hex. "Hex, I think my brother is outside in the hallway right now. I'm in big trouble and I don't want you to get involve. Can you stay in here? just for a few minutes at least so I can explain to him why I'm still at school?"[/justify]

OOC: oops my bad ^///^'
Hex nods slowly, and took a step back from the door, allowing him to pass. "Okay..." She replies unsure about the situation at hand. 'Shade you better not be taking this too far...!' She thought desperately, hearing sparks and such outside.

Shade blinks at the girls reaction. 'This is not what I expected...' She thought, looking at the boy who was obvious suspicious of her. Suddenly, she felt a shiver run down her back, and the image of Hex yelling at her came to mind. Deciding it was best to end the trick here, shade began to transform to her old, short, and delinquent self. "Calm down, Its just a ghost, It shouldnt be able to do much harm..." She said, her voice now female like. "Besides it didn't do anything wrong...yet" Shade eyed the two before her before looking at the ghost who staying oddly still.

OOC: Lol i dont think you read my post, the man was her using illusion. Maybe my post wasent clear? gomen ^^;..
