Ali: Damn necktie- Why can't you just- Urgh!*give up*

Today is the day where the dinner will be held.The theme is semi formal/masquerade and Ali want to look good when receiving his medal.

For once a while,let him be proud of himself-

He can't find his fake tie and now had to borrow from Reverse,who is still in the bathroom.

Ali: Psh...*lay on his bed* What took him so long in the shower?*look at the tie* Stupid grown-up tie-

...:We are not even there yet and you're already complaining?

Sudden voice make Ali tilt his head slightly just to see Reverse already in black button up and black slack.His hair is now back to normal color.

Ali:So, that's what took you so long in the shower?

Reverse:*use his power to dry his hair* Yeah.

He then notice the familiar necktie dangling on Ali's shoulder.

Reverse: Let me guess. Can't tie a necktie?

Ali:*grumble* Why should I tie it when instant necktie exist?

You know the necktie that had a zip?Yeah,that one.

Reverse:*chuckle**hang his towel* Come here. I will do it for you.

Ali stood up and standing still when Reverse took the end of the necktie and began to tie it.

Reverse: So,which suit would you wear?Dark red tie kinda contrast with your dark blue shirt.

Ali: I'm planning to wear this with a red coat you gave me. It's comfy and I like it.

Reverse: Heh,of course. I always made the right decision. Here, done.*small pat*

Ali:*look at the mirror*  Cun. Thanks. What about you? What suit would you wear?

Reverse:*open his closet* Ah,you know me. I will go with my signature color today.*took out his dark orange suit*

Ali: You're attracting people with that color choice of yours.

Reverse: Hey,hey. Tonight is my night. I'm the star. Let me shine.

Ali:*roll eyes*  As if. I'm also the star for tonight.

Reverse: Yeah,yeah whatever now let's hurry up or we are going to be late.

As Ali was about to wear his coat,Reverse called him.

Reverse: Oh,yeah.I forgot.*turn to Ali* Hey,could you go and take the crystal I made for you?

Ali:*one eyebrow raised* What for?

Reverse: Just go and take it you brat.

The party starts at 9 p.m. There are only workers there, enjoying the party and talking to each other.

Reverse and Ali arrived a bit late.Like a celebrity,as soon as they entered the ballroom,all the attentions immediately spotted on them.

Reverse is wearing black slacks matching with his heels boots,black button-up with dark orange fit vest.He has this chained brooch for his vest accessories and his white hair is slicked back to the side.Ali in the other hand is fully suit.Dark red suit matching with his tie with dark blue button up.His hair however combed to the left side and there is a hairclip keeping it in place.

Yep,Reverse made Ali wear the crystal as a hairpin.The crystal glows in dark blue color to match Ali's button-up shirt.Kinda served his matured but cute face.

They both walk up to their preserved table.

Ali:*sigh* I told you it is stupid.Why can't I just wear this as a brooch like yours?

Reverse:*fake thinking pose* Hm...First,I wanted to.Second,chained brooch doesn't match your height.

Ali: That doesn't make any sense!

Reverse: *take a cup of juice for Ali* Yeah,yeah whatever. Here's your juice.

Ali just grumble in reply but still taking the juice from Reverse.Reverse look around,seems like he is looking for something.

Ali:Are you looking for your friends?

Reverse: Ah,no. I felt like something is bugging me.But it's not a big deal.

Ali: Oh,are you feeling skittish with all these people?

Reverse: Not really. By the way,are you okay if I make a quick check up around the building?It would take a minute.

Ali: *nod* Yeah sure.Be sure to come back after you were done.

Reverse:Copy that.

With that,Reverse walk out from the ballroom,leaving Ali at their preserved table.

Oh yeah,forgot to mention.Every medal achievers would have their preserved seats to smooth the program.They are closer to the stage than other tables.

Ali look around.People are having fun.They are talking and eating.None of them bothering him.

Ali:*sips his orange juice* This doesn't feel bad at all.

A familiar voice then approaches him.It was Amato.

Amato: Hello Ali!Why didn't you inform me that you had arrived?

Ali: Ah,good evening sir.Er...Heheheh,you seems busy so I don't want to bother you.

Amato: Whaatt?Nonsense!Of course I would stop whatever I was doing to greet you.

He then look around,noticing the absence of the older boy.

Amato: Are you here alone?Did Rev back out from this party?

Ali: Oh,he was doing something right now.Should be back in a minute.

Amato:*nod* Ouh...I see..Well,tell him don't take too long okay?Both of you are the first one up to the stage.Then we can escape for the rest of the night.*wink*

Ali immediately lit up after that.Amato did mention about taking they both out after the party.To have their own celebration.You know?Like parents taking out their children to do fun activities as reward for them for getting good grades?Yeah,that one.

Ali:Cun!Can't wait for it sir!I will let Reverse know.

Amato smile for the last time before start walking away as the host calls him.

Amato:Oh.*turn to Ali for split second* Nice hairpin by the way!*thumbs up**walk away*

Ali just grumble and pout lightly while touching the crystal hairpin.

Ali:Why are they both are so much alike?Always teasing me and stuff...*mumble*

The lighting in the ballroom suddenly dimmed as the host began to tap his mic, announcing.

He somehow look familiar to Ali.

Host: Ladies and gentlemen's,we will now proceed this party the awards for the best workers for respective department!

Clapping sounds heaving the ballroom.Ali just lightly clap his hands.Kinda feel...watched?

He trust his six sense.If he felt something is up,something is definitely up.

He stood up,one hand already dialing Reverse,ignoring the call from the host who is now calling him to sit down.

...:Hey kid.You should sit down now-Hey-!

Ali:*one hand reach into pocket* Should I-

Did you found out about us that fast,Ali bin Ghazali?

Ali stunned,his blood run cold.That voice-

Suddenly,dozens of droids and BusterDroid burst into the ballroom,creating a panic scene with all guests here.MATA's agents coming in by all direction,forcing the guests to stand by the wall.

Amato,who is also shocked seeing that,almost jump off the stage to get close to Ali but he was pushed hard to the floor by something heavy,pinning him down.

...:I knew you were suspicious as always,Amato.

Amato:*gritted teeth* Shit-*struggle*

Heck,how the heck they get in here?Why here?Why now?!

Ali immediately snap out of his daze moment and move away as he see someone swinging a big baton near him,in attempt to knock him down.

Ali:Heck,this supposed to be our best night-!*swing his yoyo hard*

The agent got hit and bounced far away from him.By that,Ali use this chance to put on his IRIS.

...:No way out now,Ali. You are trapped.

That firm voice sounds behind him.Ali turn around and see his old comrades,all ready to fight.The Neuro girl stretch her arrow towards Ali.

...:Please,give up now.
