Ticking Time Trouble (PpgzxRrbz Kids) |Book 4|

Chapter 4 (Bast)

Bast feels like a horrible sister. Not only did Bj lose his girlfriend now she is telling him that there's a chance that they are half-siblings. She kept a close eye on Bj. She wanted to be sure that she is by his side for his crisis. She saw Python and Bartholomew talking but she noticed some things about the couple.

She finally saw the burn scars on Python's arms. They are hand shapes on his upper arms. They are white making a strange pattern against his brown skin. Python didn't seem to mind the scars. Instead, he showed them with pride and not covering them up. Bartholomew's hands are laced together with Python's. A peach skin against brown skin.

Bast hopes that they don't face things about their relationship. Not only are they different race, they are also gay. Bast isn't worried about them breaking apart. She's worried about the people who are going to say things. Bartholomew has anger and Python won't hold back to protect Bartholomew from anything.

A blinding light made her blink. She looked over and notice Patches running towards it. Benjamin shouted out her name and flew after her. Beatrix met with her eyes and the two girls followed the punk. She heard the others following but she blinked by the sudden appearance.

The bright blue sky is decorated with clouds. The wind blew against her skin, blowing back her hair. She looks down and saw the large ocean with soft waves, a beach with some people there. They are sitting at the beach just playing some weird instruments. Bast shook her head.

"Pretty little thing, aren't you?" A voice asked.

Bast looked over and saw Shadow. He stood there but he wasn't looking at her. Instead, he's looking down at the water. Bast didn't know what she should be feeling right now. Shadow looked up at her with a smile. 

"Where's Sam?" Bast asked.

"I'm pretty sure that Python told you. He never knows how to keep his mouth shut." Shadow said with his eyes narrowed.

"Give her back to us and I can make sure that you don't get in trouble . . . much."

"Someone cares about me?" 

Bast blushed, "I don't. I just want Sam back. She's my friend."

"She's safe. The Romans believe that she is Nerio. Mars consort. So, trust me, she is getting the best treatment."

"It would be better if she's with us. People she trusts." 

Shadow shrugged, "Who cares? When normals are here, back in time I mean, they seem to slowly forget their own time period. Sam is forgetting her own name as we speak." 

Bast opened her mouth to say something but Shadow eyes widen. Bast turned around and saw Sandy grabbing her shirt. Shadow shouted out Sandy to stop but she didn't. The two girls are crashing towards the ocean. Bast punched Sandy in the face, not allowing her to slam against the ocean. 

Sandy let go of Bast. Bast gasped in relief as she brushed back her hair. Bast shook her hand to relieve the pain but Sandy glared at him. Bast formed her lotus spear and pointed it towards Sandy. Bast narrowed her eyes challenging Sandy to make a move.

Sandy moved forward to punch Bast but Bast dodged the attack. She kicked Sandy back. Sandy grabbed the edge of Bast's spear. The spear was ripped from Bast's hands but that didn't make her stop fighting. Bast put her fist up and kicked her right foot, hoping to kick the spear out. Instead, Sandy smirked as she pointed the spear against Bast's stomach.

"Tell me why a pretty girl is here. On the battlefield?" Sandy asked.

"I know how to fight." Bast hissed.

"Oh really? I couldn't tell."

"I'm not just a pretty face!"

"Bast, please. Just because your parents named you after a war goddess doesn't make you a fighter."

"I was just holding back."

Sandy snorted, "Tell me why do you resemble Aphrodite so much?"

"The love goddess?"

"Tell the Greeks I said hi." 

Bast raised her eyebrow but Sandy pulled her spear up. Her shirt tore apart, falling down in the ocean. Bast screamed in horror as she covered her chest, even though she has a bra on she still feels exposed. Sandy took her distraction and cut her shorts off. Bast let out another scream of horror when she watched her fabric drop.

She tried to cover herself with her hair. She didn't want anyone seeing in her underwear. She feels like everyone is looking at her. Bast looked up and saw Sandy shaking her head. She raised her eyebrow.

"Why are you looking at me like that?!" Bast shouted.

Sandy didn't answer. She just waved and kicked Bast in the stomach. Bast for a moment forget her ability to fly and felt herself falling. Bast crashed in the water and sunk for a little bit. Her back stung from the impact. She feels her hair floating around her. Bast gasped as she broke the surface.

"Bast!" Bj yelled as he flew after her.

Bast shook the water from her hair. She began to float over the water and looked down. She wanted to gag because she is basically naked. Bast looked up at her brother who is flying down. Her eyes widened as she used her hair to cover herself up.

"Greeks!" Python yelled.

Bast forgot about the ancient Greeks. She looked over at them and saw them on their knees. She waved at them but put her hand down. Is this what Sandy meant? Bast wondered. Do they think that she is Aphrodite? Is that possible?

Bast has no idea anymore. All she knows is that they will judge her by her face now. Something that she really hates.
