I woke up the next day to the most annoying sound I had ever heard. It was … a song from Justin Beaver, I know right, THE HORROR.
I Jumped up and like a frenzied bull attacked the source of the sound. Before I even realized it I was thrown against the wall.
When I got up I finally gained some clarity. The guy who had just swatted me away like a fly was Strongarm … Don't tell me, oh no this isn't good.
"OK, kiddos, I have already woken up the boys and since they never get up they get 1000 pushups, get up so you don't have to do the same." With that, he walked out
"Oh, right, we have Pe first." Rachel went over to me and threw some of my clothes over me.
"Damn girl, I've never seen anyone with so much hate for JB that they would attack the source in a frenzy."
I answered Emelia with a chuckle, "Then you obviously haven't been to Atlantis, my reaction is seen as calm there."
I put on my clothes and looked around the dorm, it was just one big room with a lot of beds, I didn't mind though.
We went to get some breakfast and saw a few boys who still hadn't finished their pushups. The breakfast was once again a big buffet and I ate some eggs and bacon.
When the clock struck 8:30 a bell rang and we began.
First, we had 2 hours of Pe, luckily it was swimming today so I had it easy.
"Damnit, why is swimming so damn annoying!?" This was said by a boy that I would get to know a lot better.
I answered before realizing what I was doing. "It's easy isn't it."
He looked up."For you maybe, you're an Atlantean, you lived underwater, I can barely swim."
Before I could say anything Rachel and Emilia pulled me away. "Don't talk to him, he's a creep, he peeps when we change and stuff like that."
"Really, well, let's see him try this time."
I think I probably caused trauma for the guy.

"Athena, be honest, is it possible for me to get my arm back."
"Who said anything about losing your arm, you just need to keep letting Void flow through it and it'll eventually be fine, better even than before."
I wanted to hit myself, I had thought I'd list my arm forever, ah well, at least I don't have to worry about that.
First things first, I went to the lobby and asked about a service I had just discovered.
"Could I have a teleport installed in my home?"
It was the pink-haired receptionist again.
"Yes, it costs 1000 Credits but it is possible."
To understand this let's talk money:
The lowest amount was one cent.
After came one euro which was worth 100 cents and was the most commonly used currency.
Then comes a Plonk, it was worth 1000 euros.
Worth even more, was a credit, which was worth 1,000,000 Plonks which was a lot.
after that came the rarest currency of all, the Starcoin, it was worth 1,000,000 credits.
I checked my bank account and saw that thanks to Steve being good with money I had about 2 Starcoins and 100,000 credits in my bank account.
My first reaction when seeing the amount of money was to want to scream.
The company with the highest liquid assets had about 3 starcoins. Most companies were seen as successful when they made 1,000 credits a year.
How Steve had managed to make more than 2 starcoins in 6 months was a mystery nut at least I didn't need to worry about ever having money troubles.
I linked my bank account to my ID and paid the amount. Then I specified the mansion (Steve had bought multiple) where I had found the thief and I went there.
I had sold the blow-up dolls but most of the other stuff had been left, I had only replaced the bed because I didn't want to touch the thing with a 10 km long stick.
After all of that, I called Maura if she could meet me at the mansion.
The teleport had been installed within the hour so that was good and I had let void flow through my arm, when I did I noticed I could use it semi normally.
It was kind of stiff but at least I now knew how to do it.
After all that I waited for Maura to arrive.
