Chapter 914 - Naive

"Everybody, get in position. I can hear the Bus parking up.

Analise, douse the lights."

*Click*

"Here they come.

*Kirrrrrr…rrunch*

Here they come.

*Clop….clop...…clop*

Hide, hide. Now."

"Jacklyn, I know you made the right choice by choosing our team. I know we might not be your old team, but we still appreciate you as one of our own."

"What are we doing here then? What's inside? All the lights are off. I don't think we should go in."

"Trust us. Just a little something your friends helped us pick out."

"What's the occasion?"

*Click*

"SURPRISE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

"Aaaaaaah.

What are you....how....what's..."

"Happy birthday, Jacklyn."

"It's my birthday? Already?"

"I know. You're getting old."

"We can hardly recognize you."

*Punch*

"Ouch.

I mean...…I can hardly recognize you. After today, you're gonna have even more eyes on you than before."

"Why? How old am I?"

"Sweet Sixteen."

*Poo…..Poof*

"You know what that means."

"But I got all the sweets I need right here. Why would I want more? I don't need more."

"You sure about that?"

"I think I'm confused."

"Jacklyn, don't listen to Scarlett. She's just jealous that you got to sixteen before she did. Pay no head."

"But…"

"I got it."

"So, enjoy your festivities with your friends, and I promise nothing will happen with your emotions. You walked in that door, Fifteen; but you will walk out that door with every camera on you in the world. You ready?"

"Still feels so surreal."

"Don't worry. Here. We'll still give you a balloon because we know the real you."

"Awwww. Thank you."

*Pop*

"Wuuaaaahhh. What was that for?"

"Uncurl your hand, and see what's inside."

"Ummm. If it's alive, I think I crushed it. But if it's...…"

"It's...…..?"

"An earpiece, a finger module, and glasses?"

"Hologram."

"Hologram?"

"Go on. Put them all on. I want to see you."

"If you're making me look like a spy, then I want nothing to do with it."

"Just trust us."

"Ooookay."

*Ring...ring*

Aaaaah. A screen just popped up in front of my face. Are you seeing this?"

"We see this, but you are the only one that can interact."

"Interact with what?

It says unknown number. Should I decline…or accept?"

*Ringggg.....ringggg*

"Accept.....accept. I want to see your parents."

"Iris."

"Oops. Did I spoil it?"

'Accept.'

*Click*

"Hun, I can't find the masks for our costumes in this trunk. I think we're going to have to…"

"Hun."

"What?"

"Pssst."

"Ohh…ohhhh.I'm not mooning your girls. Honest. Sorry you saw that."

"Hi mom. Hi, dad. You never call before because you are always so busy. Are you not now?"

"Why of course we are busy. Skate dancing at the North, but there's an audition wrapping up so we got time."

"And we will always make time for you.

Hi Kids."

"Hi, Mr. Sparrow. Hi, Mrs. Sparrow."

"Please. Call us Elaine and Russel."

"Wait, I thought you said only I could hear them?"

"You can. But we'll talk about that later."

"I hope you enjoy your beautiful sweet sixteen. Can't believe our girl is all grown up."

"Just don't bring home any of your fans. They're all fake."

"Russel."

"...Byeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!! We love you.

*mmmmmmuaaaaayy*

"Love you too. Good luck on your show."

*Mmmuaaay*
