School was feeling lonely and came over. If I wanted it to go away, I needed to give it my undivided attention. That's pretty much what happened.

Faba smirks, "Did you four have a fun little adventure snooping around?"

Zinnia shrugs, "Eh, it was nice."

Faba frowns, "That was a rhetorical question!"

"I know."

"Zinnia, I don't want to battle all of these people." Miracle whines, "Let's cheat!"

"Cheat?" Gladion and Hau say in unison.

Zinnia sends out all of her dragons, there's Salamence, Goodra, Altaria, Noivern and a Tyrantrum.

Not even a dinosaur scares them away.

Faba laughs, "Oh, that's cute! She thinks her dragons can scare us! Everybody laugh with me!"

I mean, I eat dragons for breakfast.
Just kidding.
Dragons are pretty cool.

They erupt in overly sarcastic laughter.

Until Salamence gets annoyed and blows them all away.

Miracle laughs at them, "If they were paying attention and not laughing they could have done something."

Gladion grins, "Y'know, as much as I despised you two in the beginning, I'm really glad you guys are here."

Hau smiles while Miracle rolls her eyes.

Zinnia gives him a thumbs up, "Thanks, bro."

Stop.

Gladion scoffs, "Not you. You're just reckless."

Miracle starts flipping out and

Nightshade snickers, "Oh no! Can't talk about Miracle's crush like that!"

I glare at her, "You'd act the same."

She narrows her eyes, "Touché."

"Young master." A soft voice says.

Hey! It's Wicke.
How convenient.

Miracle looks at Gladion, "Young master? I could make a certain joke but..."

Miracle, STOP!

Gladion stops her from finishing her sentence, "Do you know where Lillie is?"

Wicke closes her eyes, "I imagine she is with the president."

"That's all I need to know."

Hau turns to him, "The president? That's Miss Lusamine, right?"

I'd call her Miss Crazy.

"She's a real nice person. I'm sure if we just talk to her she'll listen."

Gladion looks at the ground, "She's real nice as long as you mean nothing to her."

Betting ten bucks she's his mom and that Lillie is his sister.

"But I'm afraid the doors are locked," Wicke says.

"I'll find a way to open them," Gladion says before running off with Hau.

Miracle scoffs, "And he called Zinnia reckless."

'Cause she is.

Faba, just go away!

He's so annoying!
He's blocking the entrance and he won't let us through.

Faba rubs his hands together, "We sure have some disobedient children here. I've been planning this! I knew you were going to search for the president!"
