Role-Play Mania v2.0

[Skye Prower 386]

Skye's thoughts about Tikal, how angry Glen and Zamy were, about how his Dad might react, and the sight of his friend running past crying set Skye off too. He pulled his ears to cover his face as he started crying, siting with his back against the pool wall and his knees tucked in.

----------------

Anna came hurtling into the kitchen. "Mom? Dad? you here?" she called breathlessly.

-----------------

"Well, Spark said something about shortening the duration to one or two weeks, and Miles might come up with something before then," said Harmony, hoping it would perk Zamy up slightly. "Hmm, and maybe I can beat Skye's personally shift out of him so he can help too. I probably won't go quite as hard on Dylan though. He isn't my brother after all. But I'll make sure the two of them get the message." She turned then stopped. "Looks they might have started to get the message already," Harmony said seeing Dylan running off and Skye slumped, both crying.

"It seems playtime is over," she remarked dryly.

-----------------

Miles cursed as Dylan started running. "Dylan, wait," he called after, getting to his feet. He sighed. "I better go after him. No telling what might happen in his current mental state," Miles muttered as he ran after the Chameleon.

"I never thought I'd be happy to see other people miserable. But yet here I am. Thank you Harmony, it's good to know the change won't be long term."

[Skye Prower 386]

Harmony nodded and started walking towards Skye, then paused and turned back to Zamy. "Er... Are you sure it... YOU who's enjoying seeing them miserable. Given those memories my father gave you..."

[Shadow the Hedgehog 5]

"They just made my job 10 times worse. Yeah, i think it's me. Though those memories might have some part to play in it."

[Skye Prower 386]

Harmony nodded. "Fair enough. Just, make sure you're right about that..." She walked over to Skye.

Glen was walking away angrily , but when he turned back and saw the patethic show Zionna was making of herlself, he understood that he couldn't do that anymore .... He had to act .

"Ziona." walking back to her cursed fox, he kneeled next to her , and gently cradled her in his arms, before bringing her back in his room."There, there.... Don't cry. I'm not leaving you. Not anymore."

---------------------------------------------

Tikal pushed back Melody's wheelchair. I'm sure he isn't far away."

--------------------------------------------------

"Anna , what's going on?" Asked an upset Red.

[Skye Prower 386]

Ziona held on tightly to Glen, still sobbing but less frantically. When Glen said he wouldn't leave, she managed to smile.

"I'm s-sorry Glen. I didn't mean to end up like this. I wasn't gonna jump in the pool. I knew you wouldn't be happy." She gulped and repeated 'I'm sorry'.

---------------

"The only question is where," said Melody as they entered Haven. Melody's head immediately sprung up. "Hey, do you notice that? There's... a strong taste of magic in the air," said Melody.

--------------

"Uh, well... There's... been an accident..." said Anna. "The swimming pool got curse with some kinda magic and Dylan, Skye and Ziona fell in. Now they're all kids. And, er, different species too." Anna paused. "Maybe I should have put that more tactfully."

-------------

"Skye?" said Harmony, walking up to her brother. Skye peaked out slight from behind his ears.

"Harmoee?"

With a sudden movement Harmony smacked him hard on the back of the head, knocking him over.

"Do you understand just how thoughless and dangerous what you just did is?" shouted Harmony. Then her voice softened. "And yes, I know that applies to me as well."

[Shadow the Hedgehog 5]

Zamy finished her message to HQ and waited for a response.

-----

Shadow made his way into a central chamber, with what appeared to be a tomb in the centre of it.

"I'm at the centre of the structure, it's some kind of burial room. I'm gonna look for any markings."

[Skye Prower 386]

Skye had started crying harder after Harmony's smack. Harmony knelt down, then forced his ears back so she could look him in the eye.

"Skye, I know you won't like me bringing him up. But what did Father ALWAYS say about dealing with magic?" Skye's eye's widened,

"Awways thwink it thwrough," he said.

"Exactly. And this is even MORE important for you to do now, you being a kid an all. So, promise me that when is comes to magic, you'll stop and think before you act."

"Okway Harmoee. I pwromwise," said Skye, nodding his head.

"Good boy," said Harmony, hugging her brother. "Now, do you understand why it was wrong to through Ziona in the pool?"

"Becuase she dwidn't want to?" asked Skye.

"Annnnddd?" prompted Harmony, pointing towards Zamy.

"And... she... she can't do her job now, so Zwamy's job is very, very hawrder."

[Danny Felixe 330]

Dylan looked back whilst running to see Miles gaining on him

"Go away!" He called. "I wanna be left alone!" In truth, Dylan just wanted to hide away until it was all over, so he couldn't do anything else wrong and no one else could get hurt. He turned a corner, hoping to lose him

[Skye Prower 386]

"Exactly Skye. And you know how hard things are ofr her already," said Hamrony. Skye nodded and started crying again. Harmony stood up and held out her hand.

"I think you better apologise to her."

"Do I hawve to Harmoee?" Skye asked.

"Yes. No way out of this," insisted Harmony. Skye, trying to dry his tears with his ears, took his sisters hand and they walked over to Zamy.

------------

"You shouldn't be alone Dylan," called Miles. "Not when you're..." He turned the corner and found himself staring at an empty corridor. "@$%£ it. Where did he go?"

[Danny Felixe 330]

Dylan turned around again to see if Miles was still following, only to find he had stopped. Curious as to why he stooped, Dylan stopped to and stared and Miles, waiting for him to suddenly rush at him again

[Skye Prower 386]

Harmony and Skye walked over to Zamy.

"How, what do you have to say Skye?" asked Harmony.

"I'm sowwy Zwamy. I've mwade your job much hawrder. I'll thwink before I plway with magwic or Zwone Cops now."

-----------------

"Dylan? Where are you?" called Miles, checking in the rooms on either side of the corridor.

[Shadow the Hedgehog 5]

"Thank you Skye. I'm glad you've learned a lesson."

[Danny Felixe 330]

Dylan continued to stare

"How can he not see me?' Dylan thought to himself. "I'm right in front of him. And it's not like I'm... Oh no!"

Dylan looked down at himself only to see nothing. He had turned himself invisible

[Skye Prower 386]

Skye nodded frantically. "I hawve. I hawve. Can I... mwake it better?"

---------------

Miles stopped searching as a thought occurred to him and he rested his face in his hand. "Right. Chameleon." He started to cast a spell.

[Shadow the Hedgehog 5]

"Well at this stage there's not much you can do other than behave."

[Danny Felixe 330]

"H-how can I be invisible? I don't know how to do it?" he thought to himself, slumping to the floor.

He continued put his head in his arms and continued crying

[Skye Prower 386]

"I'll behawve! Pwromwise!" said Skye. He extended a fist with his pinky finger extended to Zamy.

--------------

Miles prepared to cast his spell, starting to walk down the corridor. Only to trip on the slumped Dylan and crash to the floor.

[Shadow the Hedgehog 5]

Zamy gave him a very small smile and put her little finger round his. "Thanks."

[Skye Prower 386]

"Spwecial pwromwise now. I can't brweak it," said Skye smiling back.

"If only that were true," Harmony whispered very quietly to herself.

[Shadow the Hedgehog 5]

"Good to know."

[Skye Prower 386]

Skye nodded and smiled again.

"Do you want us to stay in the library for now?" asked Harmony.

[Shadow the Hedgehog 5]

"Please, it'll make things easier. I should probably go and find Ziona and Dylan now."

[Delicious echidna 53]

"Ziona.... It's alright ... Between what you want and what I wnt , it's your opinion that count more, dear ...." Once inside the room , he gently laid her on the bed."I won't let anyone hurt you, you hear me ?"

----------------------

"They must not be too far away..."

------------------------

Locke sighed, already tired in advance ." And now, in our own room ... I told him, not to use magic like that, and what's the first thing he does ? I don't even know what to do ..."
