"Why did we leave them there?" I asked in a panic, realizing El wasn't there.
"We're leading this thing away from her." Nancy told me.
I sighed in relief and rested my head on Lucas's shoulder as a voice came through Dustin's Supercomm.
Dusty-bun, you copy?
I copy, Suzie-poo. It sounds much better now, thanks.
"Suzie." Steve and Robin said in unison.
Okay, so, listen, do you know Planck's constant?
Do you know the earth orbits the sun?
Okay, so I know it starts with two sixes, and then a... w-what is it?
Okay, so let me just be clear on this. I haven't heard from you in a week, and now you want a mathematical equation that you should know, so you can... save the world?
Suzie-poo, I promise, I will make it up to you as soon as possible.
You can make it up to me now.
What?
I want to hear it.
Not right now.
Yes, now, Dusty-bun.
Suzie-poo, this is urgent.
Yes, yes. You're saving the world, I heard you the first time, but Ged is also saving Earthsea and he's about to confront the shadow, so this is Suzie, signing off.
Wait, wait, wait! Okay. Okay.
I shared a confused look with Will as Dustin began singing.
Yes, singing.
Turn around. Look at what you see. In her face. The mirror of your dreams.
Suzie joined in, and I made a silent promise that I'd fight Suzie if I ever met her. Now was not the time.
Make believe I'm everywhere, written in the light. Written on the pages is, the answer to a never ending story.
Will and I gave each other another look, not believing this was happening.
"I can totally see my dad rolling his eyes right now." I whispered to him.
Dream a dream. And what you see will be. Rhymes that keep their secrets will unfold behind the clouds, and there upon a rainbow is, the answer to a never ending story.
Planck's constant is 6.62607004.
You just saved the world.
Gosh, I miss you, Dusty-bun.
And I miss you more, Suzie-poo.
I miss you more, multiplied by all the stars in our galaxy.
I groaned, thankful when the line went dead.
We suddenly heard a shriek from behind us. I turned around to see the Mind Flayer turning around and running away.
"Guys!" I yelled.
"It's turning around!" Steve panicked.
"What?" Nancy exclaimed.
"It's turning around!" He repeated.
"Maybe we wore it out." Lucas suggested.
"I don't think so." Jonathan said. "Hold on."
