"Safe, does not always mean right."
"......Rainbow, before we can figure out what the right thing to do for her is; we can sleep easy knowing that she is at least safe.
Besides, all they are is Manicans and stuffed Animals. What harm can they cause? Not like they're ripping the School apart to try to help Ariel. Rest assured."
".....I thought Elwin said these were very expensive pieces of…."
"I know.
…Break the glass."
"Lin, did you not just hear what I…."
"It's already partially broken. We'll replace it with another and make it retractable.
HOW'S IT COMING, Math cat?"
"Well, the space is a bit small and looks as if…."
"Good job. Keep up the work."
"Rachel?"
"What? I could tell by his voice he was about to drown on about how small it is and the height, dimensions, and wear tear…."
"But you're science; he's math. Shouldn't that balance each other out?"
"Awwwgghhh.
Don't you ever put us on each other's level."
"Sorry."
*Knock, Knock, Knock*
"Uhoh."
"Who could that be?"
"They can't be home yet. If they see the mess we have made. Shirts torn apart, rags littering the walk, and beds stripped for pieces. She will think that."
*Knock, Knock, Knock*
"Well, whoever it is knocked twice, so it can't be someone we know. Right?
..I'll go check."
"It's ok. I got it."
"Ariel, no. What if it's…."
*Errrrraaaaaiiiiicckkkk*
"Who are you?"
"Ariel, get back. We'll defend you if you are in danger."
"Back you....back.
Back...back."
"Lin, stop swinging your injection scissors. It's just Darius."
"Darius?
…..Oh. I...Sorry.
What are you doing here? Shouldn't you be…."
"My parents told me to thank my Teachers…....and...introduce myself before I turn into just another student."
"Is that why you're here?"
"I...…I brought flowers, but…..oh; you must be another new Student.
I…..uhh.....you want some flowers?"
"For me?"
*Ererrhmmm*
"Darius, would you like to come inside? We can't give you a tour, because we are busy with something; but I am sure you….."
"Would like a sneak peak."
"Of course.
Can Ariel come with?"
"Definetly. I'm sure you two have a lot to talk about.
Actually, she can show you around."
"I can?"
"She can."
"Magics, this is not my School. How am I supposed to…."
"Ariel, just let us focus on the Ship; and you can share with Darius here all the wonderful beauty that makes your planet, you."
"But he can't..."
"Please?"
*Sniiifffffffff*
"I mean.....he did give me flowers."
"Guys, I am right here."
"Okay, Darius. You want a sneak peek at the School before everyone else?
.....Then follow me."
"Wooo…...you're pulling my arm awfully tight, Ariel. Why so excited?"
"Oh, you just look like a son of mine, and I feel comfortable around you."
"A…..son of yours?"
"I mean...if I...….can we have an introduction redo over?"
"Okay.
Hi, my name is Darius. Son of light….son of Night."
"Ariel Firestorm. Daughter of queen Sky, and daddys girl of Night.
Thanks for the flowers, but on my....I mean....where I live, we have different flowers; and it has been a long time since we have seen flowers this beautiful. The smell alone...*Snifff* Which reminds me. How'd you like the wonderful display of colors in front of the School?"
"That's where I picked them from, Ariel."
"Ooooo. You could get in trouble with the Owner, you know."
"I know her, and before she gets back; I promise to replace them with my own. It's just."
"These flowers smell way better. I don't know how they…."
"Darius, you can't use magic to smell good, nor to look good. Personal hygiene always…."
"Hygiene? I uhhhhh....I'll be right back."
