Chapter 1

After defeating Schwartz, the gang returned to Werites Beacon.

"Man, I'm beat! I can't believe with Nessy's power we were able to defeat Schwartz!" Norma said.

"Nerifes knew that when it entrusted us with it's power, we weren't going to lose" Senel said.

"We had to fight to protect our happiness" Shirley said.

"And we were sure we could protect it with the sacred eres the Great Nerifes gave us!" Moses said.

"Wow Moses… you actually said something that wasn't totally stupid" Jay said.

"Hey! Why you!"

"That's enough you two. You should be glad we're alive and all here now. We fought hard and now we deserve to rest" Will said.

"Yea, Teach is right…*yawn* I'm so tired I could fall asleep here. And that reminds me…I sorta couldn't pay for my room anymore because some people wouldn't take a discount. So… do you think I can crash with someone tonight?" Norma said.

They fell silent for a moment.

"Come on, anybody! Please! What about you, C?"

"…fine"

"Thanks so much C! I knew I could count on you!"

Then Harriet came running up to see them.

"Dad, you're back! I'm so glad! Will you please come home?"

"Ah, very well, we should all be heading back now" Will said.

And so they all went to their homes for the night. The two girls arrived at Chloe's room and Norma jumped onto the bed.

"I'm so glad you let me stay here tonight…Now we can talk about stuff."

"Stuff?"

"Yea stuff…you know, like Senny."

"Norma…"

"Come on, you know you like him, just tell him already!"

"But…I can't win…the type of girl he likes is one that he has to protect."

"Ohhh, so you're jealous of Shirl?"

Chloe was silent.

"Heck, anyone would be…that still doesn't mean you should give up!"

"When I was standing there with him in the forest, the only one who felt anything was me."

"You don't know that, maybe deep deep down he does have feelings for you."

Chloe didn't respond.

"Come on C! There's still hope. And with that said, I'm going to sleep…Night C!"

She fell asleep in an instant.

"Maybe…" Chloe whispered.

With that on her mind, Chloe went to sleep.
