Shane turned back to Alice in panic. Alice just stood with a fixed icy glare that Shane had never seen. If Shane had ever seen someone else make Alice this upset she would have hurt them.

Shane: Say something…tell them Al!

Tina: Get the ***** off me!

Tears welled in Shanes eyes as she watched Alice stare through her. She gave up on Alice and leaned into Tina.

Shane: I swear on my life Tina…Ive never touched Bette…I wouldnt do that to you…or anyone else.

She turned to Alice with the last part. Angry hot tears began to stream down Alices face

Marina: What is going on!

Marina picked up the picture near her feet and Kit snatched one from a chair. They looked at each other and then at Shane who somehow with her small frame was maintaining Tinas blows.

Everyone cringed simultaneously as the loud screeching whistle ripped trough the commotion. They all froze except for Tina and Shane, who slowed down when they noticed everyone in the Planet had stopped and were silently watching them. Ivan stood with two fingers in his mouth commanding their attention. Dash nodded her impressed approval and picked up more photos.

Ivan: Alright …Now, how about you ladies move this to the back patio.

Tina: ***** that Im…

Ivan: Its not an option darling…dirty laundry gets aired outside.

Kit looked at the expression on Ivans face and backed away. Shane turned to Alice again.

Shane: Alice ….please…say something..

Alice: Youre sick Shane…I cant believe…..Im ***** through with you!

Alice turned and ran out while crying hysterically. Tina shook her way out of Shanes grasp and pushed her way through the crowd to the patio, while knocking chairs out of the way. Kit and Marina began cleaning up the photos. Shane turned to Dash who looked green.

Shane: *****, are you okay?…let me check you out…

Shane knelt beside Dash

Dash: Im fine its just hard to breath with this thing wrapped around me…and she knocked the wind out of me.

::Ahem::

Shane turned to see Ivan sizing her up.

Ivan: Ill look after her…you need to fix your *****.

Shane stood to walk out and grabbed the stack of photos from Kit and Marina. She flipped through them as she walked out to see Tina pacing on the patio. Tina covered her mouth and held one hand on her hip. She was muffling the loud sobbing noises that were coming from deep within her. She started to double over and Shane moved towards her. Tina held up her hand warning Shane to back off.
