*the next morning*

*beatstar and alberto were asleep until giulia slammed her bedroom window open scatting the military bugle anthem causing beatstar to scream in surprise and jolt upwards*

Giulia: Rise and shine beatstar!

*beatstar puts her hands over her eyes and drags hands over her face with an exhausted groan*

*beatstar got to training for the race and was improving everyday while rachel and the others looked around for her on the rooftops but were beginning to lose hope*

*One night*

*beatstar laid on the wooden surface of giulia's treehouse, she was exhausted from training day after day*

Alberto: Hey beatstar!

Beatstar: Hey...

Alberto: What's going on, you look down

Beatstar: *sighs* I'm just tired...training day after day after day just worn me out completely

Alberto: Oh...so uh...*rubs the back of his head* D'you wanna go on a walk?

Beatstar: Sure why not?

*in an alleyway*

*beatstar and alberto walked through an alleyway*

Beatstar: So uh where are we going?

Alberto: Come on, I got something to show you

*they came to a room with their vespa in it*

Alberto: *sighs* Soon you will be ours sweet vespa

Beatstar: Yeah...*sighs*

Alberto: Beatstar what's wrong?

Beatstar: I- i don't know alberto...what if we lose the race and lose our vespa...what if i never see my family again...

*Alberto's eyes widened at her sadness so then he gently wraps his arms around her and gently cuddle her*

Alberto: Hey we will win...and you will see your family again...

*as beatstar's eyes began to close, a harpoon whirled past them causing them to break up from the hug*

Ercole: Hey, look who it is! and with no Giulia to hide behind

Beatstar: *gasps in fear* Alberto...

Alberto: Stay behind me *pushes beatstar behind him protectively*

Ercole: Something's fishy with you two, I mean besides the smell

*ciccio and guido laugh*

Ercole: You're hiding something

Alberto: Is it that we're smarter than you? I mean we're not really hiding that, it's just kind of obvious

Ercole: You know, people think I'm a nice guy, always joking around

*suddenly guido and ciccio push alberto to a wall while beatstar steps back fearfully*

Ercole: But really, I'm not

Beatstar: Hey! leave him alone!

Ercole: *pushes beatstar away* Wait your turn piccolina!

Alberto: HEY! don't you push her like that! *tries to attack him but can't*

Ercole: I want to make myself very clear, this is my town, number one *punches alberto in the gut*

Ercole: And number two! i don't want you or her in it

Beatstar: I said cut it out!

*ercole turns around and sees beatstar glaring at him with a harpoon in her hand*

Ercole: Put that down piccolina, you'll hurt yourself

Beatstar: Let him go ercole or i'll go nuts

Ercole: You're bluffing

*suddenly beatstar knocks him down and points the harpoon straight at him with an evil glare looking straight into his eyes*

Beatstar (threateningly): LET. HIM GO. NOW *growls threateningly*

Ercole: *motions to ciccio and guido to let alberto go and they do*

*alberto walks behind beatstar surprised at her aggressiveness*

Ercole: *stands up and glares at them* Go. now, before i change my mind

*beatstar throws the harpoon down and she and alberto run back to giulia's treehouse*

Ercole: Nobody wants you here, idioti! Keep running!

*At giulia's treehouse*

Alberto: Jeez beatstar, why'd you get so agressive like that?

Beatstar: I- i'm sorry, it's just that...he hit you and i got mad for some reason

Beatstar: *inhales* Look let's just get some rest

*beatstar climbs onto the tree house and falls asleep*

*alberto climbed up onto the treehouse and relucantly fell asleep*

*In beatstar's nightmare*

*beatstar was in a dark room*

Beatstar: Wh- what? where am I? Trollex? Synth? girls? Alberto?

*suddenly a light flashed on a body...it was alberto's with a hole in his chest*

Beatstar: *eyes widen in horror* ALBERTO! *rushes to alberto's body and tries to shake him awake*

Beatstar: Alberto? are you okay? alberto...*her eyes fill with tears* no...

*suddenly a shadow with red eyes grabbed her leg and pulls her away from alberto's body*

Beatstar: AH! HELP! ALBERTO! PLEASE! HELP ME!!!!

*then the shadow pulled her into a hole*

Beatstar: ALBERTO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

*In reality*

*beatstar shot up with a frightened scream and tears streaming down her face, shaking and trembling*

Alberto: Beatstar?

*beatstar yelps and flinches*

Alberto: Hey hey hey, it's okay, it's just me, what happened-

*beatstar crashed into alberto's arms sobbing*

*alberto was surprised at this, but after a while he wrapped his arms around her and rubs her back*

Alberto: Beatstar...hey what's the matter?

Beatstar: A- Alberto, I had this horrible nightmare, you were dead! and then this shadow, it grabbed me and tore me away from you and i never got to see you or anyone again!

Alberto: Oh beatstar...

Beatstar: I'm scared! i want to see my friends! my sisters! my brother and my tribe!

Alberto: And you will! look i'm making you a promise right now, I am NOT going to let you get hurt

Beatstar: You promise?...

Alberto: I promise...

*beatstar buries her face into his chest and went back to sleep*

*then alberto looks over and sees ercole chatting with his goons*

Ercole (in the distance): There's something suspisious about them, I will get to the bottom of this

*ercole and his goons walk away*

Alberto: *scoffs* Ercole...

*then alberto curls up with beatstar still wrapped around him*

Alberto:...I'm not gonna let you get hurt beatstar...
