Welcome to Gaia! ::

((You just had to bring Latin into this, didn't you?))

Steven did not even notice that he had fallen asleep, but he enjoyed it none-the-less. His rest was unfortunately cut short by someone calling him, the voice seemed familiar for some reason. Mom? No. Dad? No. Ally? No. Then who? his mind thought subconsciously until it came to a rationalization, The teacher. His mind mulled over the phrase for what seemed like hours until the expected outcome occurred. Uh oh.
Steven lifted his head up off of the desk and looked straight ahead and said, "The translations? Alright." Steven began to translate the story with little difficulty and soon finished.
"Why, yes, that is ,uh, that is correct," the teacher admitted, "And for future reference, please do not put your head down during class."
Steven relaxed a bit as he realized that he was off of the hook.

Bree smiled at him, then returned to her math problems. She sketched in the margins, and nearly every one came out a picture of Kero or Shot. She grimaced when she attempted to do a bunny, but was unsuccessful. Were dreams supposed to mess with real life? She bit her lip, and decided to work with what she had. She turned to a new page, and began sketching some more.
Oh geez, next was History. She mentally groaned. What was the assignment? She had that class with Tim too, so maybe he knew.
What was the history homework?
She began to write, then scratched it out. Nah, she'd deal with the consequences.

((Both Grianne and I are going to be gone until Sunday. So don't go to far ahead. Please and thank you biggrin ))

(( @ Riverine: No problem. If we get that far, I can start Tim and Bree to get their Keys, 'cause we don't really need your characters for that part anyway.

@ megan: That is a very good question that I've been thinking about for a bit. I havn't really decided. One option is he could NOT stay at anybody's house, and just come and go as he needs. If the oportunity presents itself then he'll stay at one of us CCCs. But that seems like it wouldn't be fair to the other people. *sigh* Let's just roll with it and see how things look when we get there. Once Tim and Bree get home, I'll start the part that I have looked forward to the most: cool The Keys. That's all I'm gonna plan. I don't want to get too pushed by a set script.

Gotta go for a little while. Might be able to get on to do my real post soon. ))

(( That makes sense. Plus, that way I won't be talking to myself, which is basically what I'd be doing if he came home with Tim XP ))

The rest of the classes passed without incident. At lunch, Tim and Bree sat down to compare the dream they had. Tim was able to get his friend Will to leave, saying that him and Bree were partners on a Science project. Will wasn't in the same Science class that they were, so it was an easy sell.

Tim picked up his questionable, school made pizza and took a bite. He put it down, swallowed, took a swig of milk, sat back, and said, "OK. Let's hear yours first."

"Mine's a lot different, except for... Kerberos?" He then described his dream ((I did it in my first post)), hesitantly at first, but then faster as he began to remember the details. When he finished, he sat back. "I didn't hear any names or good sound. It was a lot like my other dreams," he said absentmindedly.

"Hm?" He looked up. "Oh. I've had dreams that came true before." He said matter-of-factually. "They always have that same kind of feel; really real but without sound except for the important things. I usually forget about them until whatever happened in the dream happens for real." He looked at Bree. "I just didn't think anybody else had them."

He thought for a second and said, "I'm thinking he'll come to us. Why else would we be having these dreams?" He put a finger on his chin thoughtfully. "Of course, it could be that we're in danger and he's our only hope for survival." He paused. "Let's hope for the first one."
