*the very next day, a knock on the door*
*laying in
bed* What? It's too early. Leave me be.
*forces
the door open* HEY COUSIN!
*screams and
jumps out of bed* Eeeep! *looks at Angela* ANGELA!
Sorry
cousin, but your father said you were heading to Lorath today?!
Shhhh...
Rhys doesn't know that.
Oh, sorry.
Well, are you ready to go then?
Well, I
haven't eaten yet.
We'll get
something at Wicky P's on the way. C'mon. I can't wait to meet
all those handsome Lorath Knights.
This isn't a
sight-seeing tour...
*interupts*
Oh sure it is. We'll have a load of fun.
*walks
in* You girls ready yet?
I'm all
set.
Gee... for
someone who's a year older than me, you're awful hyper. Did you
forget to drink decaf again?
Decaf? No
decaf, lots of coffee, LOTS of coffee.
Has to
be. Your neither of your parents were this hyper.
You
haven't seen hyper until you've seen me rassle uncle
Orakio.
I'm
sure I haven't. How is your wrestling team doing?
Team? I'm
the only one winning on that team full of male cheerleaders.
Well, you
are half Orakian.
And you're
full Orakian. Why don't you join up?
No thanks.
By the
way... have any of you seen Rhys?
He left
already?
Left
for where?
He told me
he was going to the Meteor site.
*eyes
widen* I'm gonna kill that kid. C'mon, we're going to Kennebec.
*starts to walk off*
What about
Mom?
*stops
dead in his tracks* ... I can't leave her. *turns around* Kyra,
go there and tell him to get his ass home this instant. *walks
off*
He seems
pissed.
I don't know
what is wrong with him. He's been acting funny ever since that
Meteor landed.
*from
the kitchen* NO I HAVEN'T!
C'mon. Let's
go.
