Alex frowned as she watched thief ignore Naisha's question before promptly leaving. Perhaps his head wasn't really focused on what the Mage was saying. The red head rolled her blue eyes, watching him carry the bags before looking to her friend as the black haired woman spoke. Thinking for a moment, Alex chuckled and patted her shoulder. [color=red]"Well then I would have to follow you. You almost get into as much trouble as me when no ones looking. Your parents would defiantly rip me a new one if I just let you go off adventuring with just Lady Rikku."[/color] Alex joked with a carefree grin. Though she probably would be disappointed in having to give up being a Guardian, she'd shatter that dream if that dream costed her the number one dream. As Naisha explained her time with Gippal, Alex smiled and nodded a little. [color=red]"He should consider himself lucky. I ended up not getting either anything after the first year. But my gifts usually sucked anyway."[/color] she hummed before glancing to Naisha as she said she was tired. Nodding, Alex pushed her friend on top of the ship, near the railing do they could watch the ship depart a d their home grow smaller and smaller. The red head's gaze then snapped to Gippal as he started explaining what happened. A deep frown crossed her lips and her eyes narrowed in a seething glare as she listened, but did not interrupt. When he finished, Alex gave a mixture of a sigh and growl. A attempt to control her temper. She hated herself. She always got so angry. It was really annoying. [color=red]"You should have contacted us. What made you think someone... That sick wouldn't do something to us anyway? It doesn't take much to find out that we are friends since most Blitzball fans know. Just mild research and he easily could find out where I live and what my relationship is with you. Kind of odd he'd bother playing cat and mouse when he could of just gone straight to us and use us as blackmail from the beginning since his blackmail was apparently effective. From a sadistive point of view, it be a nice way to torment you. Choose between your childhood friend or your summoner you swore to protect. Suppose sadistic people like him always have some sick twisted plan."[/color] Alex said, her voice sharp and angry, but her anger wasn't exactly directed at her friends. It was mostly Thane. That sick bastard. [color=red]"And your old man is still a dumbass."[/color] Alex muttered before gripping her fists tightly on the wheelchair handles as she tried to control her temper. Having to shut her eyes and focus intently. [color=red]"I'm going to kill that.... Sick, twisted.... Monster."[/color] she gritted her teeth as she thought about Thane. What he did to her friends.... He was going to pay. No matter what.
