And Caroline was following Ari and Ever and Akira, just a few feet behind them. Like Ari, she was taking everything in - she had not left the school since her first day of class.
"Ari, remember how you told me to shoot my brother an email or something to let him know I was angry?" Out of the pocket of her denim skirt, she retrieved her wallet. From there, she slid out a credit card. It was silver with a blue dragon logo on it, and it did not say Caroline Enlil on it.
"I don't know about you three chicas, but I'm going to do something expensive. Serves him right!"

(LOL. Did you see my response in 'The Tower', E? Two can play at Russo's game twisted )
Ari laughed. "Do it! Doooo it!" she chanted. "I can help, if you like," she offered, "My mother always said I had expensive taste..."

Ever and Akira were already in Dames' Clothing and were trying on some punk outfits. This store had punk, goth, and rave-type outfits in it. Usually Ever and Akira just tried on the clothes for the fun of it.

"Ja ja, very good. During World War II I was there for his 'Final Solution' and at first Nikolaus agreed with it. But something in me just snapped one day, I said no to Nikolaus and became this guy, Musica. It took a lot of supression, and I ended up losing my emotions, but Nikolaus was supressed for good. I lived my life quite well after that, traveling the world and doing all sorts of things that probably you'd frown upon." He said with a slight smile in her direction. "Then years ago, I ended up here. Been here for a good ten years, loved it here. And that brings us to the present." He said with a sip of coffee. That was only the back story of it all, his story wasn't finished, not even close.

"I will!" Caroline exclaimed, empowered by her new friends egging her on. "I, Caroline Enlil, hereby decree that Ialo Livius Enlil's punishment for breaking his promise to his little sister is footing the bill, whether he likes it or not!" She jumped in the air, thrusting the credit card victoriously!
"LET'S SHOP!"
With that, she dashed to Dames' Clothing, seeing that Evermore and Akira were inside.

Ever quickly tried on her first outfit, laughing at herself in the 3-way mirror. This was definitely lifting her spirits quickly. "Rock on!" She put up her index and pinky finger and pretended to do some headbanging. {{The outfit:  }}

”I’m not your nanny,” Nessa said, rolling her eyes, ”I don’t care how many women… or men, you screwed. Not my business!” She didn’t like being painted as a matronly figure. Sure, she was more mature, but that was only because she’d seen things… terrible things. Like the fact that, if the world didn’t change its course, there would be another ‘Final Solution’ in the future.

"So out of all that that's your main concern?" He asked, but then put his hands up in surrender. "I don't wanna argue with you Miss, all I wanna do is tell you my story. Now, we get to the important part of the story. After I met Ari, we were in the room of a student here playing a game of truth or dare. Her dare was to jump into the Magical Lake in front of the school. Upon completing her dare we both became curious of the lake and the fact that I could see and she could feel things swimming below us, and they weren't fish. Well apparently the creatures of the forest didn't like that, and we were thrown out of the lake quite violently. We were both hurt, but Ari was for the worse. For the first time in decades, I got very angry. So angry in fact, that Nikolaus was almost let loose to destroy everything around me." He paused for a moment to regain composure. His gaining back of his emotions was hard on him, the memory of this moment spiking his anger. Quickly he lit up another smoke and he was calmed once more. How long it would last was uncertain. "I recovered though, when she came to and brought me to my senses. I then dropped her off on some girl and ran away."

"That's right Ever, get into the Harajuku spirit!" Caroline found Evermore by the mirrors, and was grinning as she watched her friend headbang.
"You should get it - I'm paying for everything!"The thought of her brother's face when he saw the bill made her laugh and smile. He deserved it, for not paying attention to his precious little sister! She was WORTH it, dammit!

Ever gasped and looked over at Caroline with large eyes. "What?! How can you afford it?!"

Caroline tossed the silver credit card to her. The card glinted as it spun through the air - it certainly appeared expensive and high-class, at least. The dragon logo was holographic, so as the card moved, it looked like the dragon was actually flying. Even her brother's name, "Ialo L. Enlil", had been printed with a fancy metallic ink.
"My family owns the Enlil Corporation," she said proudly. "And my brother is a sucker, who happens to be a multi-millionare." So was Caroline, actually, but because she was underage, she couldn't access all the money that was in her name. "It's only a side account, though. I don't think that card is worth more than maybe 20 or 30 million dollars. If Dad were here, we could probably have taken his private jet to Italy or Japan and gone shopping there!"

Ever nearly dropped the card when Caroline said how much was in the account connected to it. She was almost terrified to hold onto it, afraid she'd lose it! She quickly tossed it back over to Caroline.
"But... are you allowed to use it if it's your brother's?"
