Chapter 784 - Smart

"So, ummmmm."

"Just act natural until they all leave."

"Bye Rex!!! See you tomorrow."

"Bye Stephanie!!"

"Bye Rex!!!"

"Byeeee!!!

"Byeeee!!!!"

"I should get going too."

"Wait."

"Why are you holding my wrist? You want to start another battle here and now?"

"No.

I don't want to start a battle. I want to start a friendship.

.....And I can see you want that too."

"You know nothing."

"STEPHANIE...…WAIT!!!

Jacklyn said this School was for new beginnings."

"But everyones gone."

"Not everyone.

Come with me."

*Phueeeeem…..

Pish*

*Doop….doop….doop….doop…doop…doop….

Phueeeem*

.....SWISHHHHH*

"I knew we'd find you here."

"Classes start tomorrow. You should be spending this time together…..not still here."

"So should you. Not hiding away in here."

*Swiiiishhh*

"I'm not the one hiding."

"But you don't even need practice, from after what we've seen."

"Now we know the truth."

*Ting….*

"You missed.

I thought you never missed."

*Baa…pish*

"Do you want to know why I practice?"

"Magic…..should never be used…."

"I know. As a first resort."

"No. We're doing our best to incorporate magic into your everyday lives, so that…

*Swissssh*

It's undetectable.

But…

*Ba..pish*

Before we can incorporate, you must have."

"What? A life outside of magic?"

"A heart."

"That's it?"

"We have one of those."

"Bahaaaahaaahaaahaahaaa.

You two are too funny. You should start a comedy show, you know.

I'd just sit in the back and roast all day."

"I take it a heart doesn't mean things we are interested in?"

"Have none of you been listening to Elwin?

Their is one thing both sides always have, good or bad.

A heart for each other. A combined goal. Same page. Never separate.

Once you figure that out, come back to me.

Oh, and you two?"

"Yes?"

"Don't expect me to help you every time.

*Catch*

…*Snatch*

"These...…these are Cockroaches. But why are you giving them to us."

"As a warning.

These are the only animals present who witnessed. Consider a deleted tape, or what you will. Lolli can't rewind; unlike Ruby….so consider yourself blessed."

"Or what? You tell our parents?"

"Mine hate me."

"And mine are too overjoyed, they can't see through me. Would never believe you."

"Don't count your chickens too soon. Especially when they haven't even hatched yet.

Maybe I'll tell them in an hour."

"They're here!!!!!!!!!!!"

"But...…..but...…why? How? When? Why didn't they…."

"You tricked them into coming here, didn't you? Just to keep an eye on us."

"Yes...…"

"Yes, they're here, or yes they are to keep an eye on us?"

"Yes...…they're here, but no…..they are not here..."

"Huh?"

"For you.

Bye bye.

Wind…..take them away."
