Code Red

Chapter 5

"Is this how people get invited to do things?" Savannah asked.

"I think so, though I never really understood how some people work." Orion answered truthfully.

He then made his exit, leaving the remaining two teens alone.

-End Of Flashback-

"Hey it got the job done." Jake said to the pink ranger, "It's not like we're cops and we're trying to interrogate her."

"Yeah, we'll be careful Em." Gia told her best friend. Nearing the finish line, one player used a power up to zoom past everyone and win the race. The young blonde jumped on her feet and celebrated, "Yes! Never doubt my Yoshi."

"Geez, I was right behind you, stupid star." Emma commented to that.

Looking back at the screen, the soccer player had his mouth ajar.

"How did I get 6th place?!" He questioned incredulously, "I was right behind Bowser!"

"Yeah and then Bowser Jr. and Daisy blew you up twice." Emma told him.

Shaking his head, the bell rang. Being the closest one to the door, the lone wolf walked over and opened it. He saw a pair of blue eyes staring back at him with a bag and blanket in her hands.

"Hi." Troy greeted.

"Hi." Savannah riposted back.

"Hey!" Jake shouted from the couch.

The both of them looked at him. The red shirted boy chuckled silently and stepped out of the way, allowing the young female to enter. He closed the door and reached for her stuff.

"I appreciate you being a gentleman, but this stuff is lighter than a cloud. I've got it." Savannah stated.

Nodding, the leader watched her put her stuff down on the couch. She sat in between the girls.

"So, what's the plan clan?" Savannah quizzed, "Food, drinks, movies, gossiping? I'm assuming that's how most sleepovers go."

"Well I'll be." Noah responded sarcastically playful.

He sat on the floor while his pal passed him a controller.

"I wanna play!" Orion called from behind.

He hopped over and landed beside Jake. The introverted leading man walked over and sat down on the end.

"I call Yoshi." Noah said

"No!" Gia semi-yelled. The nerdy kid looked up at her, "Nobody gets Yoshi."

That warned anybody to not touch the green dino. Gulping a little, the blue ranger went ahead and picked Toad.

"I want Peach." Orion said.

"Why?" Emma inquired.

"Peach is hot." Orion responded.

"Uh uh, Rosalina beats her." Jake disagreed.

"How come she's not in this game?" Troy noticed.

"I know right? She should be a playable character. The Mario verse has expanded people, put the new guys in." Jake had agreed on that. He chose Waluigi as his icon.

"You wanna dive in on this reddy redhead?" The green ranger questioned.

"Do not call me that." Savannah retorted, finding that strange, "I'm good, you guys do your thing. I'll watch."

"Aww boo!" Jake reacted, to which the new female in town rolled her eyes with a smile.

"You sure? I don't feel like playing this round." Emma offered her controller.
