Hey, Michael said to her next line.

Oh, hey Marco, Did I miss everything already?

.....

Hey, Michael said to her next line.

Oh, hey Marco, Did I miss everything already? Hey, Michael said to her next line.

Oh, hey Marco, Did I miss everything already?

She asked anxiously

No, we're just on the first recess. You just missed the first-period summary of every lesson we've been through over the last seven. Of school.

Stephanie. Heaved A sigh as she leaned into her open locker. So basically, the boring stuff is out of the way. Anything else, Marco

All right, Marco, you've got this. No pressure, Marco thought to himself. Martin always carried. Marco did it. Stefani Reagan is Funny. Came out of her locker. Will you be my date for the prom?

No, sorry, I can't. Stephanie felt weird she hadn't been asked out on a date before, much less turned someone down. Michael felt even worse. I'm not staying till the third period, so I'm not coming for the prom. Thanks for asking me and I'm sorry I couldn't go with you. I would have promised. Please don't feel bad

Oh, it's all right. I'm not concerned about the problem. Anyway, that's Joe Houston. You can ask anyone, Michael confessed with a big smile on his face while wrapping his neck with his right hand

Stefani hugged him. I'm glad she that way. She bugged her back and shot a look at a while. Michael see you at the ceremony. After she left Marcos State transfixed to the same spot, frozen in place to her, his best buddy had to come to drag him to their next venue.

Hall Of Our Gods

Xavier left the gymnasium even before the other students rushed in for their lessons. He was already walking down every hallway. By second recess, Sir. Ring and had finally found the whole way he was searching for, designated as the Hall of our Gods. The hallway was adorned with all sorts of prized artifacts placed into protective glass or plastic coverings and cases, paintings of wars believed to have been fought by the gods. Against entities unimaginable by man. Yeah, previous bypass, all these beautiful artworks. That's. Yes. Doric Relics in Search for One. The statues of the gods stood at the end of the hall, placed in a neutral in front of a mural. Which also seemed to depict another war between the gods and some dark beings.

Xavier studied the statues and noticed one thing they all had in common. They were all faceless. Xavier read out their names and titles inscribed on their statue. Figures

Loose. God of man

Jupiter nine God of the elements and forces

Antonia the sprites God of. The creatures and spirits

Hey, Dessa, goddess of death

Me. Leszek. Ego Miguel. You. God of Wisdom

Angelo. Gabriella, Goddess of Creation

Lastly, there was a broken down statue that just stood there with the rest feeling of the rubble was still in place. Nobody had bought it. Sweeping anything away or throwing out the remnants. The only thing intact was the pedestal on which. It had once stood, and the engraving port, Frank and Scott leads, God of sacrificial creation.

No Saviour had so many questions. Why were the statues of the gods faceless? Why was the last God's statue broken down and kept out? We also what did? The symbols engraved all over their bodies of the gods signify. Yes, they were new. He had no time to look for answers. He was on a mission at the moment.

Xavier stood in front of me. You start studying it carefully as he breaks down the middle. Piece by piece in his mind. Ask the one who notes but me, you in the Northern. They were said to himself. Me your statue was curved. With his head facing downward. And Zavier knew very well that it did not. It seemed more like about one arm. Was also wrapped around his back and not consisted of upward and downward motions of the head. Zavia thought through the rest of the Riddle and still didn't know what to do.

Let me try something, Xavier thought as he moved. Toy the statue. Xavier stood on his tip to stretch out his arm and pushed the chin of the statue. Surprisingly for Xavier, the head moved upward and came back down where he let go.

They heard some noises and felt the ground tremble Out of fear, he stepped back a few paces and watched the statues. It looked as though they were alive and moving, just stone limbs. Ratcliff was the savior. It was only the latter. That was true. Now each of the gods was revealing some strange objects in their hands. Which were once covered in their palms, clenched within their fists, or hidden behind their backs.

Amazing, They exclaimed, wondering how it all happened for some stuff. The ones that used to move, albeit with. Much rigidity, but that was to be expected.

They were studied and may use statues once more. Now in his right hand, he held onto an excellent Brocal score case, and in his left. Open palm was something that looked almost like a gemstone. They just eyes widened when he realized what it might be. The reverse Bloodstone, He exclaimed. Or at least the store replica of it he thought

they were. Took out his map thinking. He had solved the Riddle, and yet nothing had changed. The move still displayed the same Riddle. And Xavier's site fell upon the scroll. Case and Hadana added that idea in my he wrote up the mop and placed it into the scroll case. There's a glow of light from inside the case. They were pulled out of this map and were thrilled to see the Riddle had disappeared and was replaced by a map route just as before.

Yes, I did it, he shouted in joy.

What did you do, Xavier, 10? I around to see Marco and he looked cross. Xavier looked around and understood why they were. The whole where Zambia was, was a restricted area where they were assigned warning bypasses to be, well, traps. They easily dodged all the traps. Where mostly that's narrow. So unfortunately for him, those misfired projectiles had made the mess of the whole week shattering glass. Cason.

Alas, none of the artifacts were harmed

early. The bells only rang five times

home now I don't like them anymore.

Then you do, but we can't get into any trouble here.
