BXBX NOVEL Chapter 87 Second In Command
"Can I assist you in any way?" Alix questioned.
"Yeah, I would like you to stay out of our way, you earned a little attention but you\'re nothing but newbies, if the Red Claws don\'t break you guys, look out because we will," he replied.
"Who is this fool?" Alix asked.
"Who the hell are you calling fool?" the bully asked and Alix smirked.
"He is Shane, one of the competitors and the captain of the black snakes," Nina said.
"I will break you in half," Shane said.
"You want me to break you first?" a guy approached them with a cold tone, and the bully trembled.
"Lyzon," the guy called out.
"Who is that?" Sarah asked.
"That\'s Lyzon, the second in command of the Red Claws, the team we are up against," Alix replied and they left staring at him.
"You did your homework, which is fantastic," Nina said, as Alix smiled.
"I just want them to know their place, Lyzon," Shane said, and Lyzon gave him a stern look.
"It\'s understandable if you feel threatened by their sudden growth; a lot of people are thinking about it but I think you are the one out of place here, after all, their team is better than yours," he replied, and Ayden blew a whistle.
"That has to hurt," Yan said, and Shane left quietly because he was afraid of Lyzon.
"You must be Alix, the second in command of this team after Adora," Lyzon smirked as Nina glared at him.
"He is totally bad news, too," Nina mumbled as Yan patted her on the back of the head.
"It\'ll be fine," Yan said and Nina lowered her head, a bit worried. "Even if he is bad news, he won\'t do anything stupid right now; he\'s not the type to act rashly unless he feels threatened."
Lyzon was fair, tall, and muscular, with long red hair and green eyes.
"Nice to meet you guys, my name is Lyzon," he said as he extended his hand and Alix shook it.
"Nice to meet you, too, I am Alix," he replied.
"You have got a good grip," Lyzon said as they let go of each other\'s hand.
"Well, this match is going to be entertaining," Alix said.
"Without a doubt, you guys are strong, and I like all of you, but unfortunately this will be your last match, and the Red Claws will win," he replied.
"You know, being too confident can always backfire, good luck with the match," Alix said as the others stared at him.
"Is he even a little intimidated by this guy?" Aerav muttered and Ayden smirked.
"He has guts, no he is not, he is rarely intimidated by anyone," Ayden replied, as Aerav sighed.
\'I am getting chills just watching the two of them,\' Aerav thought.
"People usually fear us when they encounter us, well, people who have to go up against us, not our fans, but you... if you guys lose, there might be a spot for you on my team, good luck with the match too, Alix," he replied as he walked away, and Alix sighed as he looked at the others and took a sip of his latte.
"Are you all right?" Sarah asked.
"I am fine, why won\'t I be?" Alix asked and Yan chuckled.
"I don\'t find them particularly frightening, so it\'s no surprise that he doesn\'t," Kyris said.
"Are you afraid of them? why? because they are powerful?" Alix questioned, and Elijah smiled.
"You really don\'t care do you Alix? well, he is very energetic today, relax guys, you\'ll be fine as long as you work together and fight, don\'t just defend but attack as well," Elijah said.
"We are up against one of the best teams," Sarah replied.
"It doesn\'t matter, we came here to win, they seem to still underestimate all of us, take advantage of that, we can win if we give it our best shot, we also came here to prove a point didn\'t we?" Alix asked, and they smiled and nodded in agreement with Alix.
"There you go, we don\'t know when you guys are up, so sit back, relax, watch the matches, and learn something until you are up," Yan said.
"I will make a call, be right back," Kyris said as he took out his phone and went to a corner.
"Adora will be pleased to hear about them working together," Kyris said as he dialed her number and called her.
"Hello, how are you?" Kyris inquired as she answered the phone.
"Hey, I\'m fine; are they ready?" she questioned.
"Yes, they are working as a team, Alix is shining as the leader, are you happy with this?" he asked.
"Of course I am, thanks for handling them while I am not there, tell the others, thanks for me as well," she sighed.
"I will tell them. When will you be back?" he asked.
"I don\'t know, yet, I have to get going, leaving your brother alone is dangerous, he likes to get into trouble," she replied.
"You are right, you guys be careful, bye," he said before hanging up, worried about Adora and his brother because he knew the danger lurking was unlike anything they had ever faced.
"So, what do you think of Alix and his team?" someone asked Lyzon while looking at Alix and the others.
"They\'re not a threat; we can take them," he smirked.
"Good, then we have nothing to be concerned about, right?" the person asked.
"You are our team captain, analyze them yourself; I know this is going to get interesting," he said as Kyris returned to the others.
"There\'s no need to analyze them further; we\'ll see how good they are in the match; if they go down easily, they\'re nothing but pathetic rookies who don\'t belong here," the person replied before leaving with Lyzon and the rest of the team and at the same time their names got called and they smiled for it was time for their match.
