**Achilles is seen then on the beach near the two. he stares openly at the waters, clad in just a simple loin cloth, his feet standing in the tide pools washing against him**
**Yes, he was crying. How else could one react when they lost the love of their life, their soul mate in every way? The greatest warrior in history, and he had no qualms about shedding tears over his loss**
**Thetis, goddess of the oceans, takes her sons hands in hers and kisses them lightly, before cupping his face in her palms. She kisses his forehead lightly and turns and vanishes in the oceans in a flash of soft, sea-green light**
**Achilles hair whips about in the gentle winds and he looks at the two sadly**
"Mysia will accompany you two, and Wally and Danielle, when you are ready to leave. I must stay for the mourning period, but you are welcome to...'hang'...until school resumes if any of you desire."
**He pauses momentarily to look up into the stars and he closes his eyes. The pain is evident, and he turns and walks back to the crystal city**

Wanders further into the forest, shrugging off strange, dark forest-y noises as such:
"Squirrel!"
...
"Bunny!"
...
"Kindly bear who probably doesn't want to eat a kid who'd taste like 14 years worth of party pizzas!"
And so forth. He speeds up his steps as he turns, significantly more light flooding into the forest before him, almost as though...
"Something must have thinned the trees up there. One of the meteors, maybe? WHY AM I TALKING OUT LOUD?!"

**There is a foul stench up ahead of Virgil....possibly vomit inducing...and the sound of flies buzzing about**

Virg sways as the stench overtakes him, grabbing a nearby tree trunk for support as he fights the urge to retch. After a few moments, he composes himself and begins speaking to no one in particular.
"Look, it's getting pretty foul out here. Don't you think--"
"I think you are already out there and should do as you're told. You live in a boy's dorm, surely it can't be any worse than the abominations of hygiene you encounter on a daily basis."
"This... quite possibly smells worse than Marko's chili explosion."
"I'm going to pretend I did not hear that combination of words come out of your mouth. Do as your told, Mister Hawkins, you know the consequences if you do not." Virg grumbles to himself and covers his nose with an arm as he ventures closer to the foulness.

**and as he passes the brush, the stench is at it's worst, it's very source as below on the ground, in yet another deep crater, lies the remains of Mammomax, the Hero High senior; an elephant shaped human mutant.
Or at least, what was left of him**

Dani roams around the crystal city, looking around at all the history here.
"I'm not all that great at history, but man I wish I were.. This stuff is amazing." She says to not one in particular.

Back at Hero High....
26 students stand outside of the administration office, being instructed by Mister Dee for the Glee Club.
"We will make you see Vote for Mister Dee
Don't think twice he is very nice
He will do his very best when he rules the school
He wears a nifty vest and he's very cool."
Several of the teachers walking out of the building hum and skip along. Helena Bertinelli turns to Jean-Paul Brubier.
"You know I was thinking of voting for Mel Dee as the next principal. How about you?"
"Oui, I agree. I hear he has a nifty vest and is very cool."

*The sun clears the horizon the following day. Chris and Cassie are still on the beach having asleep there the previous night. They awake in time to see the dawn of new day. Chris sighs.*
I suppose we should get back.

Cassie wakes up and stretches..
"Yes I suppose your right.. We should let Achilles know first."

*pulls Cassie up*
I've been trying to get you to a picnic for two days now. One of these days...
*The couple starts towards the crystal city.*
Do you know how to fish?

Looks around the crystal city.

**Achilles stands knee-deep in a sparkling pool of perfectly clear water being fed by a flowing waterfall, doing nothing, just wading through, watching the various sea life swimming about his feet and fingering the seashell necklace around his neck**

Well, I had a couple of fishing rods. I figured if you like to give it a try at the lake...
There's Achilles...

Cassie slowly walks over to Achilles..
"Brother. Chris, and I should take our leave. I just wanted you to know should you ever need someone to talk to you can turn to me."

"WHooHOO!" Dani cried out as she jumped form way atop the waterfall down into the lake with a splash! Her head bobbed back up and she fliped her hair back.
"Man! That was awesome!" She swam over to Achilles. "You have got to try it!"
