-Break-

  As the party rages on behind me I sit in a secluded area a food slowly. Every sie I take makes me hurt even more, “This is really bad.”

  “What is?” I hear from my side.

  Turning to face Suzuka, I put on my best facade and say, “It isn’t o sneak up on people like that.”

  Shyly, she says, “Sorry Orb.”

  Notig her strange body nguage, I say, “Is something wrong?”

  “It is just that there are too many people Orb, I ’t deal with this I am going to have a heart attack. Please help me!!”

  Hearing her heart beating louder and louder, I say, “Ok the’s go together.”

  “Wait Orb, I o emotionally prepare myself.”

  Standing up, I say, “Hesitation is defeat!!!”

  Straightening up, she says, “Yht!!”

  Grabbing her hand, I say, “Now let’s go look around.”

  As I jolt out of the area I am in, I look and then say, “If we go around, we might find a pce where we i you into a versation. Over there is Maple, maybe she could help.”

  “No, No, No, No, NO, she is scary!”

  “She is just hardheaded, e on.”

  Φ In the distance I see Orb and Suzuka talking almost as if he is trying t her overhere. Maybe I should go help, but right now the most important thing is to keep my sister in check.

  Holdiight, Orb’s sister says to Mime, “You’re just so adorable, like a little fairy.”

  “Mime is not a fairy she is a walker of the night, a shadow who none catd takes from all.”

  The children of Aplos start to gather around Mime and ask her questions.

  “So, you’re from the outside like Orb?”

  “Do you know any tasty foods?”

  “Your clothes are so pretty where I get some?”

  “Do you also have a legacy like Orb and Maple?”

  “If so what yours do?”

  Mime popping out of Maples arms says, “Hahahaha, if you wao answer your questions, I will require praise, so now you mists give me what I deserve.”

  Suddenly, all the kids start to sing Mime’s praise.

  “You’re so pretty.”

  “S.”

  “Fantastical.”

  “I would give you all my food.”

  “You’re a genius.”

  “Please marry me.”

  “Good that is a suffit amount of praise, now I will enlighten you one by one schleppers.”

  “That’s a big word.”

  “I don’t know that one.”

  “You must be incredibly smart.”

  Laughi again, Mime says, “Of course, I am you fools!!!”

  Mime seems like she is enjoying herself, so I should just let her be. But there is another issue that bothers me; the people from Skydust.

  They have just been sitting by themselves in that er over there without talking to a seems they are having a hard time talking to people, and with Orb stuck helping Suzuka it is my job to step up.

  Moving over to Peppa, I say, “Hey aren’t all of you guys craftsmen.”

  g up, she says, “Y-Y-Yes.”

  “Then would you be able to tell me how this lighting dagger was fed,” I say as I pull out Easifatan’s dagger.

  Taking out of my hands, she says, “This was made by taking the part of the body which tains the cells of the wonderbeast that has the needed ability and embedding them within a metal that will further stre. In this case, the wonderbeast which has the lighting attribute was fused with what I believe is steel to allow for sharpness aer ductivity for the lighting. The hilt of the dagger is also made from the skin cells to shield the user from any rouge lighting, truly master css craftsmanship!”

  Looking at me she notices that all the eyes surrounding us a focused on her, so she says, “O-O-O-O-Or so I think, I am not su-u-u-u-ure.”

  The kids from Aplos start to gather around and start to praise her.

  “You’re around the same age as us yet so smart.”

  “So cool.”

  “Tell me more.”

  “What else you do.”

  Looking at her straight in her eyes, I say, “It seems like everyone wants to hear you talk.”

  Another child from Skydust walks up and says, “Peppa you got something wrong; the hilt being made of the skin of the wonderbeast is a fw. It is stantly weakening the lighting from reag its full potential.”

  Another child from Skydust walks up and says, “That’s incorrect, if it wasn’t for that hilt the lighting would just lose trol and hit its user. It is without a doubt an important safety feature.” Peppa nods her head in agreement.

  Another child walks up and says, “No you're wrong. If he wao trol the dire of the lighting, he would have found a way to focus the lighting cells of the wonderbeast into the metal part of the dagger not only trating the force but stopping it from running rogue by making it more of a beam. The craftsmen who made this failed.”

  Another child says, “That’s a pletely incorrect assessment. If the creator focuses all the lighting into one area it would simply be too destructive and lose the versatility it has. Not to mention the dagger would probably melt from all that trated energy. In a bat sario, it is not about the biggest attack you let out but how effitly you fight otlefield.”

  “As if you would know anything about battle.”

  “You don’t have to be rude about it, we are just stating how much reciate the work that went into it.”

  “Uhe rest of you, some of us e from families which are used t with wonderbeast, so of course we would take pride in our knowledge about certain things, uhe rest of you.”

  “Our families might not be as well versed in that specific area but don’t treat us like we don’t know what we are talking about.”

  Peppa says, “Mommy, daddy.” After Peppa says this the kids around start to cm up, and the atmosphere around all of us bees heavy.

  Grabbing the dagger out of Peppa's hand Avram says, “Everyone here has a point, but there is ohing you're missing this is from an Anathemized animal, not a wonderbeast so its cells don’t degrade at the same rate as a wonderbeasts. Also, if you look at the hilt you will see a special little tri.”

  Peppa says, “Is that a mag?”

  “Exactly, the mag is what actually stops the lighting from striking the user. Then if the user is skilled enough as you see the mag move to ge the way in which lighting shoots.”

  One of the kids from Skydust says, “But then why have the skin on the ha will only weaken the lighting.”

  Peppa says, “The biggest issue with turning wonderbeasts into anything is the fact that their cells will fully degrade in a year or two, but Avr-ram just told us that this dagger is made from something which cells degrade slower. So, the reason it is covered is for loy.”

  Laughing at his name pronounced incorrectly, Avram says, “Exactly, if we look here the skin is detachable, so by doing that you could temporarily increase its power.”

  Peppa says, “But as Melisa has already said that would overheat the on ahe metal that keeps it together, so by having the ability to trol its output removes that issue.”

  “So, I was right, more power is the goal of the on.”

  Avram says, “Hold up there young man, ly. The fact is this is a on specialised for a skilled warrior who make use of the full potential of something like this. But if we are talking about mass produ, Aarohere whht up the fact that restriake it more effit is correct.

  When examining tools like this you must take into at what the end goal of it is before judging it, if you don’t you will make a wrong assessment of an otherwise good product.

  But more than that ead everyone of you has a different expertise that allows you to see this from different angles so all of you o show each of your sides so we reach a satisfactory answer regarding this.

  You’re all the iors of Skydust, take pride in all you know but don’t shut down other ideas, the field of stific development is too fast-moving to be caught up in yourselves.”

  One of the children from Skydust says, “Aaron I am sorry about insulting you, your family history is something that I find amazing.”

  Aaron says, “Rada, I am sorry as well I should have tried to uand where you were ing from.”

  Seeing my opportunity I pounce, and say, “Peppa you know so much cool stuff would you please tell me more about this.”

  “A-A-A-A-Are you sure you wa-a-a-a-ant to he-e-e-e-ear such things from me.”

  “Without a doubt!”

  Avram then says, “I would like the hear of the secrets and teiques that people from Skydust have.”

  Maple walking over to us says, “I am not that smart, but I would like to hear as well.”

  The kids from Aplos says, “Tell us to.”

  “I don’t want to be left out.”

  “It sounds like fun!”

  “I want to know!”

  Φ Seeing all the faces staring at me I feel my toart to get caught up in knots. They are all expeg me to say things but when I try to recall the memories, I feel like I am about to cry. I start to blink rapidly with tears start to form, so I shut my eyes trying to hold them in.

  Don’t cry, don’t cry, don’t cry, don’t cry, don’t cry. As I feel tears well up in my eyes, I open them and in front of me, I see the boy named Anto making a stupid face which causes me to burst out ughing.

  Notig how wild I am ag I rein myself in and say, “Sorry.”

  “It’s ok I just thought you would have a very pretty smile and I wao see it. And if possible, I would like you to tell me about the people who gave you that nice smile, because even with the people we love being gohat doesn’t mean we ’t still talk about hoy it made us.”

  Feeling something well up in my heart, I say, “You sure you want to hear mine?”

  Toug my shoulder, Aaron says, “If Peppa doesn’t want to share I have a bunch of stories as well.”

  “No, I didn’t me-ean that.”

  Rada says, “Me too.”

  Kat, says, “I have a load as well.”

  The boy named Anto says with a smile, “We have loads of time so tell us all of them.”

  Feeling the tears well up again, I say, “I will.”

  Φ Looking at everyone smiling over there, I say, “Everyone has fotten about Mime.”

  Stomping up and down in a fury, I say, “How dare you all fet about Mime, if that’s how you want to be I will create a bunch of chaos as well.”

  Activating my legacy, I say, “I wonder how you all will feel after I i and split open the ground.”

  “MIME!”

  Hearing a sinister voice, I freeze. No, no, no, no, no, no. “The devil has returned.”

  Getting close, Elia says, “Who do you mean by that? Looks like I o discipline you again.”

  Sweating profusely, I say, “I-I-I-Im swrry!”

  “Too te.”

  Φ “So Suzuka that’s why you trust Maple.”

  “Ok then Orb, I will put my faith in your words.”

  Turning around, I say, “I got to look for a pce to effortlessly enter you into the versation.”

  Staring at all the people in that area not happily talking to each other, I say, “Is it me or do all those people look closer than ever?”

  Suzuka then says with a depressed tone, “If I enter now, I will just be an outsider!”

  “Don’t worry Suzuka there are a bunch more versations going on, I am sure I enter you into one of them!” Grabbing her hand, I desperately run around the area.
