Chapter 9: Slow Starts
Monday dawns...
Ike: "Alexis?"
Alexis: "(groaning) Morning already?"
Samuel: "(groaning) Five more minutes..."
Bell: "Nope! You've got school!"
Ike nudges Alexis off of the bed.
Alexis: "(getting up) Okay..."
Alexis gets her stuff together as she heads for the door.
Samuel: "And we've got to help out Shoma."
Alexis: "(sighing) Great Monday so far."
Alexis's day goes by like a snail swimming through molasses, slowly. She and Amanda team up to get Shoma up to speed before the day FINALLY ends.
Shoma: "(exhausted) Help me..."
Lucas: "(groaning) I don't think that we're getting help Shoma."
The three walk into the pharmacy that the others are waiting in, only to face plant.
Chloe: "Can I sleep?"
Camilla: "It really is getting to them."
Nia helps them up.
Nia: "We really can't have you all wiped out when we've got Verse on our hands."
Amanda: "(drowsy) It sucks that no one would believe a story as wild as what we're doing. It'd help us cut down on the work."
Ike: "Then we'd better decide on our plans before you pass out!"
Meanwhile...
Verse: "(sighing) Greed, now Gluttony and Pride? Taking back what's mine is getting really annoying..."
A woman in a blood red dress is standing behind Verse.
Verse: "Lust, it's your turn to kill them and bring me back my Soul Bond!"
Lust: "Of course..."
Meanwhile...
Camilla: "Now you all better get some rest. You'll need it."
Lucas: "(exhausted) Okay..."
Everyone slowly leaves.
Alexis: "(groaning) After we finish the homework."
