WARNING -this story is going to contain romance between two male characters so if you don't like this kind of stuff please don't read but if you couldn't care about this stuff feel free to read on.
All I could do was watch as my boyfriend and someone who liked me battle each other.
I saw 3 gray rocks roll into the arena, at the same time Crunch made his move.
Rolling fast at Crash hoping to hit him but missing him barely.
Crash rolled into a rock while dodging Crunch's attack and it changed from gray to a dark blue colour. Not long after Crash had hit a rock Crunch too rolled into one changing it orange and burst into flames.
From the corner of my eye I spotted a small screen on one of the arms of the throne with the statistics of the match.
At the top of the screen was the gray rocks, one was blue and another was orange, the one in the middle was still gray. On the left side of the screen I had an image of Crash's head and 100%, thinking to myself that must mean that's his life. On the other side of the screen was an images of Crunch's head, however instead of there being a percentage, there was a green bar to show his life.
"Let's hope that won't go down."
Another blue rock was added to Crash. Starting to panic I stand up and shout to Crunch hoping he would hear me.
"Leave the bandicoot and go after the rocks, I think if Crash gets them all blue it's going to hurt"
Watching, my words would not mean anything to him. The orange rock went out and changed back into a gray rock. Dropping my ears I knew what was bout to happen.
Watching as the last gray rock rolled towards Crash, all I could do was wait for him to hit it. Seeing his chance Crash rolled towards the rock and slammed straight into it. All three blue rocks stopped rolling and flew into the air.
Aku Aku knew it was his turn to have fun, flying towards Crunch he shattered the boulder and then out of nowhere a small blue meteor shower began to fall on Crunch. Falling to the ground, I looked back to the screen and watched as 1/3 of the green bar vanish.
Pulling himself up, Crunch called Rok-ko and the whole process began again. This time I watched 4 gray rocks appear all rolling out in different directions. Placing my paw on my head as I was getting dizzy from watching everything in the arena roll round in circles. I rested my head on one of the arms to let the dizziness go away.
Putting my paws on my head again, I closed my eyes waiting for the battle to end. A moment passed and I heard a shatter and mini explosions. Looking back up I saw Crunch lying on the ground, looking back at the screen I saw that Crunch had only 1/3 of the green bar left while Crash had 70% left.
Counting 5 rocks this time knowing that this was going to be the last time they will roll, sadly already aware of the outcome. Staring into space I hadn't noticed Aku Aku float next to me.
"What are you doing here?" When he said this it made me jump before looking confused, that's when he read my mind.
"So...you're dating Crunch, different I guess" thinking back to the event outside the house "but wait, what happened outside the house?"
Blushing I just sat there silent thinking of how to respond to this.
"That was just a mistake; he properly thought I was Tawna or some other girl."
Aku Aku let out a laugh and smiled.
"What I'm about to say is something that not a lot of people know this but, Crash didn't mistake you for anyone one else." He paused for a second "Crash is gay and thinking back to how many pictures of you he has and how many of your gigs he has been to I would say he likes you."
Sitting there my eyes wide open, blushing like mad, this was the first time I was speechless. Looking back at the battle watching Crash roll around. Thinking to myself what my life would have been liked if I hadn't joined the team and went out with Crash. "I'm sorry.....I never knew he did..." dropping my ears counting back to how many gigs I have done.
Looking back at the battle, Aku Aku started to feel sorry for me.
"Why don't you quit then, join our team?" looking at him with a horrified look and shook my head.
"I couldn't Cortex would kill me.....and it would heartbreak Crunch" looking at the floor dropping my ears, tears filling my eyes "I don't want to leave him"
Nodding Aku Aku understood and blew at me. Looking confused I look at the object that appeared into my paw, looking back up I spot that Aku Aku had floated over to Crash. Opening my paw I see a little ice figure of a demon fox resembling me. Smiling I clench it tight and closed my eyes.
Hearing another shatter and more mini explosions I look up to see Crunch lying on the ground unconscious and Rok-ko getting sucked into some sort of portal. Dropping my ears I watched as Crash walked out of his atlas sphere and over to Crunch looking at him. I got a cold shiver down my spine when he turned and looked up at me.
Walking to the edge, I walk too far and slip as a small part of it crumbles away. Screaming I close my eyes waiting to hit the ground. Watching me fall Crash runs and holds his arms out ready to catch me. Feeling myself hit something soft, I open my eyes to have Crash look back concerned.
Nuzzling into his chest, tears filling my eyes "Crash I am so sorry, I didn't know you liked me, if I knew I would ha....." Crash had placed a finger on my muzzle and smiled. Looking back at Crunch hoping he wouldn't wake up while I was doing this, leaning up I placed my lips onto Crash's.
Looking at me confused and worried he let me down and pulled me into a hug. I keep looking back to Crunch hoping he can't hear this. Standing back from Crash I look at him dropping my ears. "You best go before he wakes up". Nodding he walks up next to Aku Aku, there was a bright light and they where gone.
Looking at the figure in my paw I noticed that instead of it looking more like a devil fox one of the wings had changed into a feathery wing. I walked slowly over to Crunch's unconscious body and sat down next to his head. "aww he looks so cute like that" giggling to myself I rub his head thinking of how would I explain this to Cortex.
Pulling out a button from my pocket I press it, there was a sudden blast of wind as my ship floated into the arena. The cockpit opened and a metal arm moved out and picked Crunch up placing him into the cockpit. Running and jumping into my ship I press the button again to close the cockpit.
Looking over my shoulder seeing him still out of it, I reach under my seat and pulled out my space suit. Sliding my legs into it and up to my waist I growled knowing what I had to do next. Taking off my green jacket I throw it over me and it lands on Crunch's face. Holding one of the sleeves I got a shock when I had a purple furred hand placed on my shoulder.
"You have some explaining to do" I slowly turn my head to come face to face with one hell of a pissed off Crunch. Dropping my ears in look down at the floor and start to wimper as I felt him tighten his grip on my shoulder.
"Crunch....I don't know what your on about? I was trying to act innocent.
I could hear a low growl come from him and started to panic.
"Drop the act Tiger I know you kissed Crash!" he was right next to my head and from the corner of my eye I could see his teeth showing.
I just sat there silent listening to his growls.
"I....I'm sorry" an ice tear slowly made its way down my face; I felt his grip loosen a bit. I felt a kiss on my cheek, turning my head I looked at him right in the eyes almost being hypnotised by them. Placing a hand on my face he started to rub my cheek.
"It's ok Tiger.....just make sure he doesn't hurt you.....or next time I will kill him.....was he better than me?." Smiling I just looked and winked at him.
Holding me in a hug I flicked a switch to make my ship come alive.
"Err Crunch...could you not please have a boner right now...it's very distracting". Laughing Crunch lent back and we slowly made our way back to the station, both of us with the feeling of dread.
