*Knock, Knock, Knock.*
"Come in. Come in.
We were just finishing up and.........Elwin, where's Ruby?"
"She...…"
"Will be gone for a while, but asked us to please continue with the investment of the school.
Except, I see you've already made leaps and bounds."
"Oh this? This is nothing.
Just a little activity my family and I...…."
"Aheeeemm."
"My family and Apple decided to come up with.
Help celebrate Earth day, by bringing awareness to what's around us. Gettin to know the Kids together, and ultimately being connected more with their past.
Upfront!!!
Further, helping them engage their future.
The School."
"Well I think it is a nice gesture all around."
"Who won?"
"Oh, hi Moe. Shouldn't you be….."
"Don't worry about that. As long as I get home before nightfall, my Dad won't mind.
So who won?"
"We did, of course."
"And Kitty is ours......…..for the rest of the week."
"Uh, I thought Darius only said a few days....meaning two."
"What? You don't want to hang out with us longer?"
"No…No. It's not that. It's just...."
"I'm just messing with you. You can leave on the third day."
"Thank you.
So what do you guys want to do first?"
"Their is a question I have been dying to ask.
'Do Cats always land on their feet?' "
"Is it true that Cats have nine lives, or is that a myth; and does that mean the cat will die on their ninth life; or live until they are one hundred thirty five?"
"I don't know about that, but...."
"Cause Cats are known to live to be fifteen to seventeen years old before they die. Thus, nine cycles would make one hundred thirty five years; or one hundred fifty three years. Depends on how you look at it."
"Well, you won't be looking at much of anything cause if that is the truth; humans only live to be one hundre twenty at most.
That means I outlive you by fifteen years at MINIMUM!!!!!!!!!!"
"Okay, Okay; hotshot. I got what you mean.
Just trying to make a point."
"Well, point taken."
"Come on. We'll show you our house.
Don't worry; we do have a dog..........but he's a lazo fazo.
Between you and me....
I am secretly a cat person. Shh."
"Got it."
*Wink*
"Anything else you would like to show us, Darius?"
*Cough...cough*
"Besides the dust bunnies."
"Actually, in their pursuit to find lost Kids, they did ninety percent of the work for you guys, by knocking over old shelves, books, and crates of all sizes and shapes.
All you have to do now is just take a huge Duster and sweep the rest.......Outta here!!!!!!!!!!!!"
"Thanks, Darius.
We will take it from here."
"Just doing my part in this community."
"I wish for a Donut."
*Poof*
*….catch*
"Woo, how did you...."
"For you, my Steward."
"You know what? I don't care how.
Thanks."
"No. Thank you.
Come on Moe. As Darius said, he did all the hard work. It's on our shoulders to pick up the slack."
"It's going to take an Ocean to sweep up all this mess."
"At least it's a mess, and not standing.
You get started on that side, I'll do this side."
"What's the purpose of this school again?"
"To get the Public eye back on track.
No one has respected Ruby her whole life, and she has shielded us; for our safety.
Time to give back.
Help extend her arm of helping. Teach people the true story of what happened, by fostering new ideas, so that it can't/won't likely happen again."
"That's a mouthful."
"You're telling me."
"Got any Teachers picked out?"
"Moe, we don't even have the furniture picked out."
