"HU...Whoops," whispered Kunjiro who was about to shout in excitement when he realised that the other family members were asleep. Trying his best not to wake them up, the kid closed the room doors quietly.
"So, when does the class start? I hope it's not too late, I'm not allowed to stay up late," asked the excited boy. "What do I have to bring?"

Rex chuckled softly at his friend's reaction.
"Well, it's in half an hour, I'm afraid. Can you come? To my house, that is." There was a pause as Rex tried to recall things he needed to bring along to class.
"I don't remember having to bring anything to Uncle Gryff's lesson. But bring along something to write with, in case you need to jot down notes."

The smile on Kunjiro's face turned down upon hearing the time. "Mum will be angry if I go out that late," said the boy sadly as he sat on the nearest sofa. "But I really, really want to attend the class."
He then left his friend alone and thought hard. Isn't there any way not to let his guardian know about him attending the magic that late? He cannot afford to say 'no' to his friend, for the boy had already promised to attend it with him. That would only waste Rex's time visiting and informing him about the magic class.
Suddenly, Kunjiro had an idea. The boy jumped up from his seat and clapped his hands in glee, feeling excited. "I know! I can stuff something on my bed and cover them up with my blanket and I'm sure no one will know that I'm still awake and away," said Kunjiro. "Then I'll be able to attend the class without mother knowing about it!"

Rex felt a tug in his heart upon seeing Kunjiro's expression. A short while later the boy jumped at his friend's sudden movements, a sly smile creeping across his face at the mushroom boy's suggestion.
"Great idea!" Rex exclaimed, careful to keep his voice low so as to not wake Xiao Ling up. The boy bit his lips as he paused for a thought, then offered to enchant Kunjiro's pillows so they would move accordingly so as to give the impression of life.
With the suggestion came guilt, as a wave realization hit him a moment later - they were going to cheat. Worse, they would be cheating a parent.

"Hehe," said Kunjiro cheerfully as he entered his room with some pillows taken from the store. The boy then placed them carefully on his bed and covered them up with the blanket. "Thanks for the help," said the boy to his friend, after hearing the offer.
"Er... can we go quickly?" asked Kunjiro, feeling nervous. "Sometimes mum will go into my room to see if I'm asleep, so I'm afraid what will happen to me if she knew that I'm still awake."

"You're welcome," Rex said as he waved his hand, palm down, along the the pillows. Almost immediate the pillows started to rise and fall rhymically, as if the makeshift figure was a living, breathing person.
"There we are," the boy said, turning to Kunjiro. "Of course, let's go."
With a nod Rex slid out of Kunjiro's room and the house into the hallway, careful not to make any noise that would wake Xiao Ling up. The boy was thankful for King's cooperation, and thanked his twin while waiting for his friend.
"Well come on Kunjiro, my room's this way." With that Rex let the way to his 'room', which was quite a distance away from Kunjiro's.

"Okay," replied the excited kid as he grabbed the stationeries required. He then stuffed them into his pocket as he made his way to the door, following his friend. Kunjiro grew more and more excited as he closed the door quietly and walked along the corridor to his friend's room.

 Magic Lessons with Rexier Gaver and Gryffenc
Location: Criffelance Castle
Characters Involved: Atsutoshi Kunjiro, Rexier Gaver, King, Silencer, GryffencSilencer Wolf Rex led Kunjiro quietly to his room/apartment, while King gazed silently at the mushroom boy before him. It did not take long for the boys to arrive at Rex's door. With a grin to his friend, Rex opened the door and led the way in.
"Mum, Gryff, I'm back! And look who I brought over!" Rex announced, stepping swinging the door open and stepping aside for Kunjiro.
"Come on in, Mum and Gryff's inside," the boy said, turning to the mushroom boy and keeping in mind to address the gryphon by his name as preferred in the latter's presence.
"Oh!" Silencer exclaimed, half-squealing in delight at having Kunjiro over again. The teenager scarmbled to her feet and hurried over to greet the mushroom boy, her face all smiles. "Come in, come in."
"Make yourself at home, I'll be right back." With that, Silencer disappeared into the kitchen. Xiao Ling "Err... Thank you," said the boy nervously to his friend after entering the room. Due to the fact that the room of his friend's environment is way different than his, Kunjiro felt more nervous than before and jumped in surprise as the guardian 'half-squealed' in delight. "Hello," greeted the kid shyly. Silencer Wolf In the kitchen, Silencer snaked her way towards the fridge and picked out a tub of ice-cream. The girl then went over to get a dessert bowl before moving to the counter and gave Gryff, who has assumed the form of a human, a bump on the way.
"Stop eating, and get out there," she said, filling the bowl with on, two scoops. The girl contemplated for a moment, before adding another scoop. "Kunjiro's here - you do remember him right?"
"Mmph. The mushroom kid from last time?" Gryff made a face at her, and finished the last spoonful of CnC before stuffing bowl and spoon into the dishwasher. Taking the bowl from Silencer's hand, he reached for a spoon and started on his way to the living/guest room. "Of course!"
Outside, Rex motioned for Kunjiro to take a seat. Not a second later a green hued skeletal creature appeared from behind the fish pond, peering cautiously at the stranger. A growl emanated from the creature's throat(somehow), and he took a threatening posture. Who dared enter the residence?
"Down Zar. It's okay, Kunjiro's a friend," Gryff said as he emerged from the kitchen and made his way towards the boys, followed shortly by a calm but still wary Zarrol. "Here you go, kid. Take a break first before your first lesson."
"It's nice to have you over again. I'm so glad your mother allows you to come, Kunjiro," Silncer said, coming out of the kitchen just then.
"Yep. We're gonna go to Criffelance after this, so eat up. There's more space for us there," Rex added, enthusiasm clearly in his voice as he plopped onto the couch. The boy did not say anything else, but instead reached down and patted Zarrol, who returned the gesture with a wag of his tail and an affectionate nibble on Rex's hand before squirming off to King's side. Between the twins, it was clear the cerexi liked the tyrannosaur better.
It was clear that King loved Zarrol too. The tyrannosaur reached out and licked Zarrol lovingly, happy to be in company the latter. Xiao Ling The kid walked further into the room, not as nervous now. The room was full of chatters and noise which the boy was not used to it. Feeling tired, he then decided to take a seat on one of the chairs and bowed slightly to thank his friend, not noticing the green-colored skeletal creature growling at him.
"Oh, thank you," said Kunjiro as he took the ice cream thankfully. The kid then ate them slowly for his teeth hurts every time he consumes something freezing cold.
Kunjiro then felt guilty upon hearing what Silencer said. His guardian knew nothing about him sneaking out at night just to attend the class. The boy said nothing and continued eating the ice cream. Time passed, and the ice cream bowl was getting emptier and emptier. Silencer Wolf "You're welcome kid."
Smiling, Gryffenc ambled over to the single seater to the left of the kids and settled down on it, watching the mushroom mishap eat for a moment before shifting his gaze towards the clock. Satisfied that they had a few minutes to go before class, Gryff sat back into the sofa and went through the upcoming lesson in his head while Silencer took the seat opposite him.
An awkward silence hung in the air.
"So," Silencer started in an attempt to break the ice. "How is your family doing, Kunjiro?" My, he is such a quiet kid, she thought to herself, gazing at Kunjiro while he ate his ice-cream.
"Uncle Gryff, what'll we do tonight?" Rex asked, scooting closer towards the shapeshifter.
Pretty much deep in thought, Gryff missed the mishap addressing him as 'uncle' and instead caught just the last three words.
"Oh? Yes. Well, we'll be doing some introductory lessons, seeing as this is your friend's first time in learning magic. For you, it'll be a revision of sorts," Gryff explained. Seeing Rexier's disappointed look, he chuckled and added, "Of course, there will be practical lessons as always."
At the mention of pactical lessons Rex perked up. "King too?"
"Yes, if he's willing to listen. He'll still be learning control though. If he wants to do anything else, he'll have to master it first."
"Oh, can I come?"
"Of course you can. You know that already. As soon as Kunjiro here finishes his ice-cream, we'll set off." Xiao Ling Kunjiro was still eating the ice cream when the guardian asked him about his family, which made him looked up. After some time licking his mouth, the boy answered with a cheerful tone. "They are good, thank you," said the kid, still licking his mouth. He then ate his last scoop of ice cream and he was done with them. Not wanting to be rude, Kunjiro stood up wandered around the house before knowing the way to the kitchen with the bowl on his hand and placed it in the sink.
"Well, I'm done. Sorry for the wait," apologised Kunjiro, seeing that he wasted a lot of time on eating a bowl of ice cream. "So..." said the boy as he sat on one of the empty chairs. "What should I do next?" asked Kunjiro, feeling akward. Silencer Wolf "You're welcome, Kunjiro. I'm glad you like it." Silencer's gaze followed the boy as he disappeared into the kitchen and smiled at his politeness.
"Just put it on the counter. I'll take care of the washing up later," she added, getting up after Gryffenc. This was followed by Rex, and soon the three were congregated before a door beside the indoor fish pond. The very same pearl that glowed prior to Gryff's arrival shone brightly once again, indicating the portal was ready(and safe) to be used.
"Come, Kunjiro." Gryff motioned to the mishap. He reached for the doorknob and opened the door, holding it open to reveal a lush, green garden on the other side of the wooden frame. He stood aside, still holding the door open, waiting for Kunjiro. Silencer and Rex, as well as King, had already made it past the doorway and into the castle grounds. Xiao Ling "Okay," said the boy as he stood up from the chair and took his belongings when he was called. After seeing the others entered the portal to the castle grounds, he took a deep breath before running towards the door.
Upon reaching the castle grounds, the boy saw the other members and quickly rushed towards them. Kunjiro wasn't used to places full of magic, the boy felt dizzy and uncomfortable.
