The rating will be NC17, this was just a fun short story I had going on in my mind regarding Max and Alec on Dark Angel. This is after the move to TC at the end of Season 2, I'm setting it about 6 weeks later and they're still standing off with the military and police force.
----------------------------------------------
Alec was taking all of his frustrations on Max out on a punching bag in the makeshift gym set up in TC
He was really abusing the poor bag. Standing in sweatpants and no shirt, no shoes, he was giving that punching bag everything he had in rapid fire succession
Punch, punch, spin, kick
He was still brooding over what happened that morning when the TC leaders had a strategy session
The people in the room were Max, Alec, Mole, Joshua, Dix and Luke. But they couldn't get anywhere, because Alec dared to challenge Max on her plan to rob a warehouse in Sector 9 of their ammunition to add to their own stores
There was a fault in her plan, just a minor one. He was only pointing it out so they can have a back-up plan to take care of it.
But she went off the deep end as usual and berated him in front of everybody for daring to question her
Tired of being Max's whipping boy, the two of them faced off in front of all of the transgenics present in the room and he told her if she is proceeding with her plan without doing something to take care of the weak link he pointed out, he wanted no part of it, and he stormed out and went straight to the gym
Pretending the bag is Max, he gave it his all, punching and kicking with all the pent-up frustration he had until the stuffing started coming out of it
With one final punch that caused styrofoam beads to fly everywhere, Alec turned to look around the gym to see if there's something else he can hit for a while
"Great!" He heard Max at the door and he turned, shooting her a cold, hard stare that would have intimidated most people, but not Max. She folded her arms, leaned against the doorframe and smirked, "NOW we have to find a new punching bag thanks to you."
"Since I destroyed it, I'll take care of it." he retorted, turning his back on her to grab a towel and wipe off the sweat on his face and neck. Then he grabbed a swig of water from his sports bottle
Max stepped into the gym, then stood about ten feet away, hands on hips, "Alec.... what the hell is wrong with you lately?"
Alec snorted at that irony. Him?? He shook his head, smirking, "Not me babe. SOMEONE in this room can't take constructive criticism and it sure as hell ain't me!"
"Stop being so cryptic! Spit it out! We have never tiptoed around any subject, so don't start now. What's your problem with me?"
"What's my problem??" Alec looked skyward and said sarcastically, "She's the one that is always riding my ass and she asks what's MY problem??" He met her eyes again, gathering toiletries to take a shower in the public shower, "I was just trying to help and you went off the deep end like always. I can't do anything right with you Max! Every time I open my mouth, every time I try to help, it's never good enough. So you know what? I'm done! I'm through trying to please you. You obviously can NOT be pleased. I'll just stick with inventory and stay out of your hair."
Back straight and proud, he turned away to head to the showers and Max called out, "Wait!"
He stopped, but didn't turn around, clenching his jaw and his fists and giving her exactly ten seconds to apologize. If no apology, he's leaving!
"Am I really that much of a b!tch to you?" she asked quietly
He turned back and told her bluntly, "Yeah, you are. Verbally abuse someone long enough and they get tired of it Max. I have a pretty high tolerance for it, but I've reached my limit. Get this through your head Max. I am NOT Ben, OK? I know you see me, you see your 'brother' and the psycho he became, but I'm NOT Ben and STOP treating me like him!"
With that parting shot, he left for the showers, leaving Max standing there in shock
---------------------------------
Mole and Joshua were cleaning rifles together and were talking to each other quietly about the two X5 leaders
"Little Fella is too hard on Alec" Joshua stated quietly, actually feeling sorry for Alec.
Mole chomped on his cigar while wiping the barrel of rifle with a cloth, "There's a lot more going on with those two."
"What do you mean?" Joshua asked Mole curiously
Mole smiled through the cigar in his teeth, not an easy feat, "They were paired off for a reason back at Manticore as breeding partners. It's because the two are most compatible as breeding partners. They don't seem to realize it yet, but the sniping at each other is perfectly natural. That's how the mating dance starts in the feline animal kingdom. You notice our Max doesn't snipe at anyone else. If I would have pointed out the same error Alec did, she would have taken it in stride. But coming from Alec caused her to get all confrontational. The only way the two of them are going to get back on an even keel is to mate."
Joshua's eyes widened and Mole explained, "To f*ck, to bump uglies, to do the nasty, to have sex...... however you put it, we won't have any peace until the two of them do it. The fighting will just keep escalating until they do."
Joshua grinned now, "To get BUSY!" he stated
"Exactly!" Mole confirmed. Joshua thought about it, head tilted to the side and he nudged Mole, "Maybe lock them in closet?"
Mole looked back at Joshua and set his rifle down, contemplating the idea. "You know what? That's not a bad idea Dog Boy. You and I can take them, throw them into a box or a closet and they don't come out until....." Mole pulled the cigar out of his mouth and pointed at Joshua, "My boy! You're brilliant! Let's do it!"
Mole presented his fist to Joshua. Joshus fisted his hand and lightly bumped Mole's in agreement
-----------------------------------
When Mole and Joshua were ready to put their plan into action, they just followed the sound of arguing voices and hid behind crates to watch Max and Alec in the converted "mess hall".
They have never seen easygoing Alec get as angry as he was with Max right now, "Damn it all to hell Max! You are the most micro-managing, controlling b!tch on the planet! God help Logan when this virus thing is over because I guarantee when he sees the real you, he'll toss you on your ass in the street. And I'll get a front row seat for THAT show and will be laughing my ass off!"
"You have no right to say anything Dumbass! You are nothing but a male whore that has screwed half the females in Seattle! I'm probably the only one you have NOT slept with!!"
"Is that an invitation sweetheart? If it is I'll have to decline. I like my balls right where they are!"
"Why you arrogant sonofab!tch! You think every woman pants after you! Well think again big boy! I wouldn't f*ck you if you were the last man on earth!"
"Right back at ya sister!"
Joshua snuck up on Max, and Mole snuck up on Alec and grabbed each from behind before they knew it. Both transhumans were stronger than the X5s, but they fought with all they could in the bigger transhumans' grips. They were tossed bodily into a small closet and Mole closed and locked the door quickly with a dead bolt
"What the hell??" Max yelled out, "Joshua!!" She banged on the door with her fist, 'What are you doing?? Mole??"
"Hey!!" Alec called out, banging on the door too, 'What's this about??"
Mole called out, "You two get your differences settled and THEN we'll let you out. We're tired of hearing you arguing. Bad for morale!"
"Joshua??" Max called out, pleading, "C'mon Big Fella! You don't want to do this to me, right?"
"Mole is right Little Fella. Fix your problem, then we let you out."
"We'll be back in an hour to check on you two." Mole told them as he left, grabbing Joshua by the arm to follow
