Of Love and Death.

The Future Chapter 3: Belfyre Vs Dragon!

No warnings! (That I can think of.) Don't you just love that!    

   Bel glanced back at Den as they walked into the Snake Pit. It must be a lot for her, he supposed. He couldn't remember the first time that he'd been to the Pit, that's how long he'd been coming here. For Den though, this was her first time ever seeing the place. Right now, the group was in the long entrance hallway with a couple of potted plants dotted around at intervals, the electric lighting that simulated natural light, and the tiled walls with inscriptions of snakes. It was certainly a sight to behold.

      "It's cool, isn't it?" Dad asked Den. 

       Den nodded, her mouth slightly open. Bel grinned a bit. He couldn't help feeling a bit of glee in the fact that this place, basically his second home, was impressive to Den.

      "Let it Rip!" Ranzo and Bashara shouted.

      Bel looked onward as Rocktavor and Spellscraper landed in the stadium. Rocktavor went straight for the center, while Spellscraper circled around. "Go Spellscraper!" Bashara shouted, prompting his partner to attack Rocktavor. 

     Bel tilted his water bottle back, trying to get the last drops of H2O out from it. "C'mon," he whispered to the container, "just give me that last drop. You know you want to..."

     "Who are you talking too?" Jamie asked, popping out of nowhere.

      "Gaah!" Bel shouted. All around the base of the main level of the Snake Pit, eyes turned to look at him. Bel gulped. 

       "Why are you all curious? This is a blading club, its weirder if someone isn't shouting!" A certain long-haired blond blader shouted. He had a small black mask, only covering his eyes and a bit of his forehead, on. It was decorated with a purple two legged dragon curling around the top, as well as purple eye coverings. His long black coat was adorned with another purple dragon, flying upwards along the back. Underneath the coat was the standard eye uniform for the snake pit, complete with purple markings. 

        "Yes Blue Eye," The Bladers of the Snake Pit muttered.

       "Where did you come from?" Bel asked, still a bit on the loud side on account of his heart beating about twice as fast as normal. Not from fright from...excitement? Don't ask him about what he's excited about.

     Jamie smiled, her blue and pink hair, each color on one side, framed her face, "I just finished giving Den a tour, so decided to sneak up on you! Did I get you?"

      Bel nodded, still a bit blue from his fright-I mean excitement.

     Den came running up to the group, her teal hair trailing behind. It had apparently come undone from her ponytail at some point and was now falling around her shoulders in a style quite similar to Jamie's, just with a bit of wave to it, instead of being stick straight. "What on Earth... is this place?" She asked, panting.

      "It's just a blading club," Hanna said, "no need to get your launcher in a twist."

      "What..kind of... blading club has a fudging MINIATURE JUNGLE in an underground maze located under an already underground club, located under a pyramid, located in the middle of a fudgin' FULL SIZE JUNGLE!!?" Den cried. Then, after a moment to catch her breath, "And how can Jamie run so fast!? She left me in the dust!"

     "What can I say," Jamie said, flipping the pink side of her hair, "I'm not just a brainiac. Now If you'll excuse me, I have homework to do." With that statement, Jamie grabbed her backpack from where she had left it, in a pile with all of the water bottles and other backpacks. She trotted over to a bench on the sidelines, took her phone and earbuds out from the backpack. Proceeded then to put on music, pull out some very complicated math homework, and get to work.
