"You're a swimmer or an unlife-guard or something?" She asked "Not that you'll be catching me in the water any time soon! Haha!" She held her hand over the shimmering pool and a pink drop of slime hit the water with a 'plock'. The pink dissipated in the water. "Dramatic." She smiled, wiggling her fingers like a magician.
Suddenly, deep within her satchel, her mobile started buzzing away and chiming a twinkly tune. She fished it out, a character charm swinging on a string from one corner. It was a text from one of her few close friends, Meme; Am at werk. Bord. Plz save me LOL ;p ;p xox. Ascreama began tapping out a reply Hey! ^___^ Might have made a friend. He doesn't want to look at me or watch me eat, but he seems cool hehe. Will bring him over for your approval. I think he's worried I'll try and eat him. Please don't scare him away!! =^___^= xox "So, who was that guy earlier? A friend?" She asked, looking up from her phone but still tapping away the reply.

"Aquatic" He held up and wriggled his webbed fingers. He shuddered a bit at the dissolving gloop. "Ekkel... " He murmered to himself. "That guy? No, he just appeared. Seemed pretty uh.. flighty." He shook his head. "I don't think he was entirely all there up here... " He tapped his own head for emphasis. "A friend?" He indicated her phone.

"Kawaii!" She squeed at the webbing, lifting up her own hand and mimicking the style. Thinking back to the fowl-monster, she nodded in agreement. "He seems like the type of manster that you end up bumping into more than once. One of unlife's great mysteries.."
Her phone buzzed and chimed, Meme again; Is he hott?! Get ovr here. Little mnsters r gross w/ their grabby hands!! ; ( xox She rolled her eyes and tapped out a reply; Shut up #^ w ^# I'll be there soon! xox
"Hey," She looked back to Ronan who was gazing longingly at the water "want to meet one of my friends? She's crazy!"

"It would seem everyone in this town is..." He shook his head and shrugged. "Why not?" He didn't have anything better to do and the company was at least lifting his spirits somewhat.

Marceline LaGhede
"Er, anyway... I'm hopin' my request to be hexempt from Dead Languages this year'll be approved... Rotter seems 'ntent t'keep me, though..." She groaned. Small talk wasn't one of her strong suits even in the best of situations... "Either way, I'm beyond hexcited t'get on with the new school year! Aren't you?" 3nodding Draconia was grateful that Marceline and Whinnie seemed to be getting along. Even Colt was now utterly entranced by Marceline and hanging off her every word. The group went to Boomingdales and Aberzombie & Fitch before ending up at the food court. Whinnie and Colt headed over to the Veggie Vamp's to eat and Draconia and Marceline stood in line at HackDonald's."Are you doing all right, Marceline?" Draconia asked as Marceline again distractedly looked at her iCoffin. "You've seemed a touch distracted today. Fangxiety about school?"

"Hi Drakie! Marcie!"
The ghouls turned to see Glen walking up to their side at the crowded food court while Chase joined his siblings in getting their food. In Glen's hands was a large platter with several samples from Panda Hexpress.
Glen popped one into his mouth and then held the tray out to the ghouls.
"Want one? The witch in front of Panda Hexpress was just giving this away!"

"Glen, you can't-" Draconia was interrupted by her iCoffin buzzing. She pulled it out of her purse and glanced.
Got in early. Will b flying 2 the LG from Scareport. XOXO
"Oh!" Draconia stood up suddenly, her wings knocking the tray out of Glen's hands and clattering onto the ground. "Oh dear! I'm so sorry! But I must go!"
Draconia clasped her claws in front of her, barely able to hold in her own excitement.
"My sister's in town!!!!"

Glen looks down at the spilled food with a forlorn look on his face but seeing his Drakie's excitement made him forget all about that. He quickly levitated up on his skateboard and shouted across the food court;
"Chase! Get the food to go! I got our stuff! We need to give Drakie a lift to the Looking Glass! Her sissy is in town!"
He lowers back down and smiles at the ghouls and says to Marcie.
"There's room for you too! I'll give you both a lift! Just lemme get my chow to go from Hexpress!"
**zips away**

Draconia smiled as she texted her sister back.
I'll be at the LG soon. I'm bringing some friends. You remember Glen? Don't sign anymore autographs for him. He already has 13.
Her iCoffin buzzed again almost immediately. Draconia hoped Wyvvie wasn't texting and flying. It was a terrible habit she had.
Remember him! U at the maul? Bring me a double hexpresso?
Certainly! I can't wait to see you again! ...<3
...<3...<3....<3
Draconia put her iCoffin away before she risked distracting her sister's flight with more texted bleeding hearts. Wyvernia was constantly multitasking, always having her claws occupied with this, that and the other thing. It was her bold, go-getting attitude that got her the job as a roving global reporter for the Monster News Network in the first place, but even her bosses seemed to think she worked too hard. They had been trying for years (decades in non-dragon time) to get her to cool her talons a bit and host a news magazine rather than fly into every danger zone that presented itself. Now, with Uncle Wocky gone and Draconia all by herself, her parents had finally pressured her into accepting the job, right here in New Salem.
Now, the two sisters would be living under the same roof for the first time in 4 years (40 in non-dragon time). Draconia was beside herself with excitement. She idolized "Wyvvie", wishing she could be as bold as her older, take-no-victims sister.
"Glen, be a dear, grab a double hexpresso for Wyvvie too, please?"

Glen zips back up to Draconia with a H-U-G-E bag from Panda Hexpress and squeeks, "Right!" And he zips right off for Scarbucks just as Chase and his siblings approach with their own bags from the Veggie Vamps.
Chase looks at the direction his boofriend just took off then smiles at THE Draconia.
"Glad he's feeling better! He got all bummed out when THEY showed up!"
He jets his thumb back, directing their attention to the orc security guards whose arms were laden with a massive amount of shopping bags.

Draconia St George Marceline LaGhede
"Er, anyway... I'm hopin' my request to be hexempt from Dead Languages this year'll be approved... Rotter seems 'ntent t'keep me, though..." She groaned. Small talk wasn't one of her strong suits even in the best of situations... "Either way, I'm beyond hexcited t'get on with the new school year!

Draconia asked as Marceline again distractedly looked at her iCoffin. "You've seemed a touch distracted today. Fangxiety about school?" "Oh, it's not that..." Marceline began to say, just as Draconia's phone sounded off. She let out a gentle sigh of relief, grateful to not have to get into the reasons why at the moment; instead she smiled, eagerly awaiting what news Draconia had. It turns out her sister, Wyvernia, was coming to visit New Salem! "Jeepers! How excitin'!" Marceline exclaimed when Draconia told her the news. "Wait, we're goin' to see her now?! Make my order to-go, please!"

Laden with food, shopping bags and now several centaurs, Draconia and her group of friends headed for the exit. The shiver returned to Draconia's spine as she suddenly realized that Glen would want to DRIVE them all to the Looking Glass...across the street.
She looked at the bags....at Whinnie's pleading, terrified eyes...and at an increasingly eager Glen who was clearly jingling his keys about to make an offer that Draconia, as his absolute beast friend in the world, could NEVER refuse.
His mouth was opening...wider...wider...
"WAAAIT!" Draconia nearly shrieked, causing everymonster within a 50 foot radius to stop and stare. Draconia's cheeks turned ruby red. "Er. I mean...Glen, with all of these bags and...security Orcs...there's no way we can all fit into your car. "
Thank goodness for those security orcs, for once!
"How about we load up all of the Q family's items..and these orcs...and you can drive them to the Looking Glass? And then the rest of us will, er, walk. The six metres there."
Draconia could see Glen was crestfallen and more than a little annoyed about having to be an Orc chauffeur, but Whinnie was already dragging Colt at breakneck speed over to the crosswalk, making the two of them already halfway to the Looking Glass. Taking Wyvernia's latte from Glen and giving him a reassuring hug, she joined the rest of the crew on the short trek over, leaving Glen standing in front of his enormous SUV (Scary Utility Vehicle) with a troupe of stonefaced orcs.

Dashner walked in circles around the maul, until he ran into Ronan and his friend again. "As you can see... I have nothing to do." Dashner thought about his last meeting with Ronan... He probably thinks that Dashner is nuts! He was surprised about seeing all of his friends at the maul, maybe he should come here more often.
