Jack blinks and arrives just as Ricky does. He notices another
person enter the room, and stands on guard. But she does not seem
like a threat. He turns to analyze Rebel. She seems innocent, but
something here seems off to Jack. Since he's insane, it just might
be nothing, or it might be something. He instantly whips out his
dagger. "How do we know if one of us is the shape shifter? Can we
even tell?" He backs away from the others, his eyes on all of them.
Serene walks to the library and is surprised to see almost everyone
there."what is the matter?" she asked.There energy levels were
telling her something was wrong.
"I cant be a shapeshifter. My form is a 'locked form', or thats
what Zorra says." Rebel says. "And if i was, Eclipse wouldnt have
noticed and torn me apart by now. Same goes for the rest of us."
A portal opened and Ricky smiled oddly, "My way home! I have to go!
It may be my only chance...but what about you guys?"
A second later two figures stepped through it.
"Anna? Riley?" Ricky asked smiling darkly.
"Yep, that is the right one. He has the smile." Anna muttered.
Jack frowned, his guard back up again. He didn't like these new
strangers. He turned his dagger slowly in his hand, the blade
pointing downwards. "Who are you two? I've had enough surprises for
a decade, at least."
"Jack? I thought you died." Riley explained pulling out a small
hand held device to scan him.
"Why aren't you two at the school? I mean I am glad you two are
here, but still why?" Ricky asked.
Anna smiled sadly, "Bye bye world. Boom."
"So that is the runt was familiar!" Ricky yelled looking to Jack,
"You were the guy who died."
"Parallel world nonsense." Anna explained.
"So Green, Rebel, Magic, Dusty, Cherry, Kani, Astra, and Zorra.
What happened?" Ricky asked.
"Died in battle. You know a shape shifter is somewhere in here
right?" Riley asked.
"Other world bull crap. My friends. Quite capable. Riley is
probably the smartest here. And Anna...well she keeps me and Riley
in check." Ricky explained "So...we are here I guess."
Jack absentmindedly listened to their conversation, while also
listening to someone else. 'Who are you? And what are you doing in
my head?' 'My name is Jason, and I arrived with those other people.
Be wary. They have horrible, unspeakable intentions.' Jack looked
at the new-comers, while Jason fed him more information.
Riley opened up and his bag and began to move stuff. Spare food,
spare clothes. He tossed Ricky one of the suits he took from
Ricky's room. He frowned once, where did he put the Revealing Cube?
