Chapter 29. Merry Meet Again

I was just wondering why time had gone by so quickly. What kind of timeline did that dreamland run on. We all went to sleep I woke up to Molly screaming. "Is there a reason that you decided to turn our home into the Bates Motel?" Gert asked Nico, this was honestly terrifying. I went over to Chase.

"Pretty used to some crazy random shit happening around here, but this is definitely a new one." Chase said to us.

"It's creepy as heck." JJ got out, he'd been sleeping on a sofa since he arrived.

"I'm trying to get back to Alex and the Dark, whatever that place was. I've been using the spell that Morgan gave me over and over again, but since I can't use the same spell twice, every time I try, I get another stupid stuffed bird. Watch." Nico said to us before activating her staff. "Tenebrae!" She shouted creating a stuffed peacock.

"Point made. You can stop now." Chase said to her, I couldn't deal with anymore.

"Nico, you need to get some rest." Karolina said to her.

"I can't. Alex is back there alone." Nico said before heading downstairs, I saw JJ come over to me.

"Can you teach me how to use my powers?" He asked me, he had no idea what he was doing.

"Of course, let's go. I'll teach you how to use them." I said before we went upstairs with him.

"How do I move things?" He asked me and I looked at him.

"Focus on something, let's say this bottle." I said while pointing at it and I saw his eyes change color. "Good. Now try to move it." I said to him and he managed to raise it into the air.

"Sis, I'm doing it, I've done it." He said to me before smiling. I the taught him how to create objects. Before we all went out for breakfast. In six months barely anything had changed.

"Okay. So it'll be, uh, pancakes, hash browns, breakfast burrito, and an avocado toast. What are you guys getting?" Molly asked us, she must've been hungry.

"I'm getting French toast and pancakes." I said to her with a smile, along with coffee of course.

"Hungrier by the second." Chase said to us all.

"We've been eating out of a dumpster for months. I think we can survive waiting 40 minutes for fresh waffles." Karolina said to him with a smile, he just had to be patient.

"Oh, my god. Waffles." Molly said while looking at the menu again.

"Are we sure there aren't equally delicious breakfast options at a place with no line?" Chase asked us, probably not.

"No line, no good." Molly said to us, now that was wise.

"Golden rule of brunch spots." Karolina said to us, kinda wish I used to go brunching a lot.

"Did you know that your brain will actually trick you into thinking the food is better just because you waited in line for it?" Gert asked us, that was kinda interesting.

"I'm gonna go hover and see if the food looks like." I said before a guy handed me a new phone. Wow, how times had changed in 6 months.

"Molly, table for six!" I heard someone say, that me gone. I then went over to the others. We then ate.

"Oh, that was so good." Molly said to us.

"I won't need food for a week." I said to them all with a smile.

"Well, now that we're full and poor again, we should decide what we're gonna do for money. I mean, we don't have to pay for rent, but I wouldn't mind being able to eat like this every so often." Chase said to us, maybe even a few dates as well.

"Wait, are we just gonna go back to living together at the hostel?" Gert asked, well we still weren't going home.

"Where else are we gonna go? Back home?" Molly asked us, we'll I probably could.

"No, not an option, but, I mean...our parents were downgraded from super villain to nefarious flawed human beings we feel awkward around. But I'm not going backwards." Gert said to us, we missed a lot.

"We did miss a lot the last six months. Graduation, prom, summer jobs, making any plans for the future." Karolina said to us, well I knew my plans.

"Well, I know what I'm gonna do next, you know, normal stuff. I'm gonna get a part-time job and my GED and college applications and dating- -" Gert said before Chase cut her off.

"Starting with Maverick?" Chase asked who was Maverick.

"His name is Max. I know that you know that. You're such a protective brother trope." Gert said to us all.

"I am not jealous." Chase said to her.

"Well, I plan on getting my GED. Settle down if Chase wants that, have a family of genius super babies and move far from here." I said with a smile, Chase looked at me.

"I mean we can settle down in a few years those kids will come later." Chase said to me before looking at Gert. "You got a bright future ahead of you. Whatever you to do to get it, we support you. You deserve it." Chase said to her, I looked at everyone.

"Before we go, I'm gonna go and use the toilet." I said before going to the toilets. Once I got out I saw everyone outside. I then went home whilst everyone else went elsewhere. I wanted to see Nico. But she was gone so I went home. The house was for sale. "I still leave here assholes!" I shouted before taking the stake out the ground and throwing it far into the distance. Once I entered I saw my grandparents.

"Y/n, your home." Grandad said to me before him and grandma ran over to hug me.

"I'm home, and to stay." I said to them both.

"That's okay, we'll take this place back off the market. We just thought that you died." Grandad said to me, I stayed with them for a bit before heading home we had a party to attend. I then went to see if I had a dress. And I did.

Once we showed up it was the event for the new phone. It was at a hotel. "Wow, someone sure thinks they look good from every angle." Karolina said to us all, I mean she was hot.

"Well, I mean, she does." Chase said to me.

"God, I wish I looked like that." I said to them all.

"Here's Max. Bye." Gert said before she was off, I saw the buffet table.

"Right, we see food, we are gone." JJ said to everyone before I went off to grab food. It wasn't long until there was a speech.

"You're here tonight because you are part of Wizard's finest chapter, when we will use our ingenuity to change the world for the better." I heard Mr. Minoru say before I left to go round to the other areas. I heard cheering.

"I don't like this place." JJ said to me, there was an off vibe about this whole thing.

"I know what you mean, there's some kind of off vibe. I don't think we're safe here." I said to him, once the place went quiet that's when I knew that something was off. Way off. I went to find Chase.

"Are you okay?" He asked me and I shook my head.

"Something's not right here." I said to him before holding onto his arm.

"I know, it's to do with those new phones." He said to me before we looked around at everyone else.

"I haven't activated mine for this reason. We should go." I said to him and he looked at me.

"We have to wait for the others and for this event to end." He said to me and I sighed.

"There's an off vibe here." JJ said to him. I saw Chase nod.

"Let's just go and do some more information taking." I said to them before the three of us went off together to go and gather information. I hope the others were having better luck at finding information out. Once we got home Nico wasn't with us.

"What are we gonna do? Nico is completely under her spell." Karolina said to us, I'd have to fight to get Nico back.

"Max said the phones are being released worldwide any day now. I mean, they're selling them like they're gonna save humanity. Sounds a lot like PRIDE's old cover story." Chase said to us, a lot worse than one.

"I have a feeling this is a lot worse than PRIDE." Karolina said to us.

"That's just great." I said to them all sarcastically.

"Wait, guys. Do you hear that?" Gert asked before we all went quiet. There was whispering.

"What the hell is that?" JJ asked before we all went upstairs. Molly was in some kind of trance with her phone.

"Molly! Molly! Molly!" Gert was shouting at her but nothing. Morgan had to got to her.
