"Aughh!"
Hadrian groaned,
"Huh? Anything wrong?"
Otto pulled up a chair, sitting down next to his friend, digging his face into his arms,
"I'm fine, just.. worried."
Hadrian breathed, his eyes closed,
"I mean, yeah, Harps is pacing in her room at 6:30 in the morning."
Laughed Otto,
"Mhh-hmm..."
"Anything new?"
Otto raised one eyebrow,
"Let's see, Cassie, Isa, Mevia and Harper are going out for a while, so, I guess we can get some time out of that."
"That's a great, at least we won't have the girls on our tails all the time."
Laughed Otto,
"True, true."
"Guys! We're leaving!"
Cassie waved to the girls,
"I'm staying..."
Harper's head peeked out from her door,
"W-wha- but Harper! We agreed to this!"
Isa exclaimed,
"It's because of that scream that sounds like Ivor right?"
Hadrian sighed,
"Yeah... Ivor never screams like that-"
"Then how do you know it's him?"
Cassie injected,
"It's.. just, it feels like it's him."
Harper shook her head, her hair in braids, waving around.
"Fine then-"
"It's fine, she can stay."
Otto smiled at Harper, she nodded 'thanks' at him, thankful,
"Well, then... we'll take our leave!"
"Huh, I wonder if Milo and Reginald are there."
"You wish Isa, they both have a crush in you."
Mevia laughed
"It's like you Mevia, Otto and Hadrian have a crush on you!"
"Oh, shut up!"
"Who knows!"
"Hey! Either Gill or Aiden likes you!"
They voices chattered, as it faded away, as Hadrian laughed,
"It's like our childhood."
"True, except less, love-based"
Otto sighed inwardly.
"Harper, you okay?"
Hadrian turned around, eye boring into Harper's cocoa ones, for an answer.
"I'm fine."
Harper replied, short-ended.
"Just shaken."
"You wanna try the new game?"
"Huh? Which one?"
"It's called... urm... Minecraft.. Story Mode..."
Hadrian thought,
"Sure, won't turn a game down."
Harper walked over, as the two boys slid of their chairs and hopped onto the sofa.



"So, what's your desire?"
"De-desire?"
"Yes, everyone, even the most generous being, has desire for something."
Laughed the man, Ivor knew what he was hinting, but his mind echoed a voice that beat like his heart, 'Harper' 'love' 'Harper' 'love' was pounding against his head,
"H-"
He stopped, knowing Jesse won't have a blast defeating a man with the ability and power to turn one into a brine.
"Harper? Mhh?"
The man laughed, able to read anyone's mind.
"Then that's, that."
He snapped his fingers, he laughed inside, 'we know that humanoids want lust.' But what is this word? Greed.


"Okay, this is sh-crap, we're gonna go find him."
Magnus slammed his hands on the table, shaking his head.
"Look, he's probably at Harper's."
Soren sighed,
"Bogus."
Magnus spat, at Soren, indicating his disgust.
"It's been 27 hours!"
"That's 24, hours."
Ellegaard corrected, calmly.
"I don't care! We need to find him!"
"You wish!"
Snapped Ellegaard,
"He would yell at us for getting into his business! And after all, he was the one who left himself!"
"Guys, calm your jets!"
Gabriel's hand reached half way to grab them by the shoulder and give them 'the talk,' but pulling back.
"Well! At least I care enough!"
"Well! I'm the one who cooks for the whole house and cleans the roo-"
"Blah! Blah! Clean, smean, I'm the one who join the order in the first place!"
"Shut. The. Formidi-Bombs. Up."
Gabriel breathed, as the others stared, Gabriel wasn't short-tempered like Magnus, but more calm and collected.
"Ellegaard, you're the one usually to care, I don't get why we shouldn't at least try-"
Magnus smudgily lean back and shot a look at Ellegaard,
"-Magnus, give some respect to the only woman in the house."
Gabriel finished, as Ellegaard crossed her arms, and Magnus' confident face fell.
"Let's go."
Soren peeped, shuffling to the door, even if he was leader, his confidence was gone.
Like Ivor's luck.
