In the meantime I have been training the blade breakers for a month and, contrary to my assumption, I actually enjoyed it a lot. Tyson played the break clown over and over again and the fact that we had fallen for an old man's trick didn't detract from it. In the meantime we were in France and I was actually quite impressed by Paris. The only thing that bothered me was the feeling of being watched all the time. I kept seeing a shadowy figure scurrying away behind me. The guys didn't seem to notice, so I just shut up and waited to see what would happen. Nobody knew what was going to happen next and, to be honest, I wasn't really in the mood to bump into the Dark Bladers again. My feeling, however, showed me that this was probably unavoidable. Lost thoughts ran alongside the boys. They talked the whole time, but I couldn't understand a word, to be honest I didn't hear anything except ghostly steps behind us."Hey Alex! Are you still alive?" Ray asked me. “What? What's going on?” “Do you think it's too hot?” “Nope!” I could have sunk into the ground. Why did this have to happen to me now? I was so embarrassed that I blushed. “Are you sick or what's wrong with you?” “I'm fine, I just forgot something. I'll see you!” I said quickly and made me get away.

Somehow Alex was always a little strange. Only today she was simply not the same as usual. She also no longer behaved like a fearless fighter, but looked a little like a frightened girl. Kai didn't think much about it, only it made him a little puzzled that she acted as if she were a perfectly normal girl like any other. Okay not like EVERYONE else, but not so anti feminine anymore. "He really can't be helped!" Said Tyson casually. He was not entirely wrong. "What the heck? That's just the way it is," thought Kai. After a while he also rappelled from the group.Lost in thought, he strolled along the streets of Paris without paying close attention to his surroundings. After a while he stood in a rather green spot on the Saine bank. A very skinny person was sitting in the grass. At least she had thin arms, which then disappeared under a brown denim vest. "Why Alex, of all people? Can't there be any other girl sitting there? From my point of view, a puffed-up chick, but why she of all people?" Slowly but steadily he walked past her. She didn't seem to notice him, though. Her head was on her knees, her face was lowered and nothing was to be seen except her purple forehead. He crept a little closer to her and could then hear a faint ravine. "Why are you crying little Zandra (he used to call her Zandra as a little boy ^. ~)?" He asked himself. Now he was standing next to her. "Hey Zandra! What's wrong with you?" Alex slowly raised his head and looked at him. Her eyes had turned reddish.She looked at him with a tearful and at the same time innocent look. Kai was startled when he saw her like this. “Are you okay with you?” “Do I look like I'm okay?”, Her voice sounded very tearful, “And anyway, why should I be okay? Can you tell me?” Kai knew that Of course not either, but he didn't let it show and sat down next to her. "I don't know why you're feeling so bad, but ..." he stopped. Should he really talk to her now when she's the best friends again? It doesn't matter, at least he couldn't and didn't want to see her cry. "... isn't it better to get rid of something like that? Then you feel better and better." "Well, that's the right person! Always play the curmudgeon and then say you would feel better if you let everything out." He looked at Alex, puzzled. she was still crying, but her face had taken on a strange expression. "Why do you suddenly want to try to understand me? Do you think that I will forgive you for everything afterwards?If so, then you'd better forget about it right away! Just leave me alone okay? I just want my peace! "" It's all well and good that you want your peace and quiet, but I hardly think that you're just so upset about little things, so tell me! " "That does not concern you! ", she grumbled, got up and ran away. Kai had no choice but to watch after her. Once again he had totally lost it with her.

I didn't know why I had reacted so snuggly to Kai's words. At that moment I just had one more thought. Let's get away! My head felt like an overripe tomato. Over and over again, images from the old days flashed through my head, from times when Kai and I were still good friends. In the end, only one picture could hold its own. Exactly that frightened face of Kai that he made when I met him in Russia. That was 4 years ago. It was then that I won the world championship title for the first time with the Bladegirls. After my match I saw him standing there.This fuss that he made, as if he had never seen a girl in his life, was somehow really scary. His words from then also came back to my mind. 'Zandra? Is that really you? I can not believe it! Do you have any idea how much I missed you? "I kept hearing those words and that was exactly what made me question my own reaction.
