Genis rode Noishe down to the Brook's edge. They both were exhausted. Genis slid off of Noishe's back and began to stretch. Noishe bounded down to the brook and leaped into it.
"Stupid dog," Genis mumbled as he grabbed his canteen from his backpack and began to fill it up with water. He sat down and let the cool water flow past his lips. Genis thought of what he had done that day and how much he regretted what he had done.
"How could I have been so stupid?" He thought out loud.
"Woof, Woof, Woof!" Noishe sprang out of the water and raced toward the bushes.
" Noishe, wait…come back!" Genis cried chasing after him. Genis didn't realize that his shoelaces were tangled with one another, and when he began to sprint after Noishe, he tripped and fell flat on his face in a big puddle of mud.
Meanwhile Noishe sprang into the bushes and landed on something.
"Aww Noishe get of me! I don't want dog slobber on my face again! Yuck… GET OFF!"
Noishe backed up and started to whine. Genis leaped out of the puddle and raced towards the whining Noishe.
"Lloyd, what are you doing here? And… Colette? How did you guys find me here? Kratos… did you guys come to turn me in? Is she looking for me? Does she now where I am?"
Lloyd looked at Genis with the most baffled expression. Kratos just gave Genis the "what have you been smoking?" look, and Colette watched a butterfly flutter near Kratos's face and leaped towards it, trying to attack it.
"Too many questions!" Lloyd cried in despair.
"HOW PRETTY!" Colette screamed, bounding after the innocent butterfly that was trying to get away from the annoying and screaming blonde.
"One question at a time. First of all, you were not that hard to find. I mean, in the woods behind the school? Not too difficult. Second of all, why did you run away like that? We did NOT turn you in to…her? You really need to explain yourself." Kratos said.
"Well it all began last night," Genis started with his story. "I was out with you guys playing poker. Colette, you still owe me a … well… never mind. I never ended up doing that math homework. I was in school today and Raine… she spanked me!"
Genis burst into tears as the rest of the gang just looked at him. They all started to laugh hysterically, and Lloyd even rolled on the ground, holding his stomach.
"That is not funny," Genis said through muffled sobs.
"Lloyd gets spanked every day," Kratos said. "Why do you think that he has such a big butt?"
Everyone looked at Lloyd's butt with astonishment. They all were trying really hard not to laugh out loud, but they all burst into mad laughter.
"Well its true!" Kratos cried.
"Yes it is," Colette pondered. "Look at the shape of it, it is exquisite! And where did I learn that word? Oww my head hurts…"
The gang started backing up away from Colette.
"Well what do you know," said a new voice.
The gang turned around and saw what they did not want to see for quite a long time, Raine.
