"What's up Saladin?" Griffin asked casually as all the schools and the teachers gathered at Red Fountain at Saladin's insistence.
"Oh nothing much Griffin. Just a book I was sent from the future." Saladin responded just as casually causing Griffin and the other teachers to groan slightly as they sagged into their seats.
"Again? That's strange. The last one that happened was just before we found out Bloom was the princess of Domino…and it pretty much confirmed our theories on it." DuFour said with a groan as she glanced at her partner in crime who gave her a surprised look as well.
"This must be pretty significant since usually when the book shows up, only the teachers and the occasional outsider are asked to read." Griselda pointed out calmly although even she looked a bit put out.
"Yet this time it's all three schools and the teachers. Wonder what it's about." Ediltrude said agreeing with the shorter woman sitting beside her.
"We're going to find out sister. What the title Saladin?" Zarathustra asked looking at the old man curiously and causing him to glance down at the front of the book.
"Apparently it's called Family Around, the extended version." Saladin said reading off of the cover and causing Bloom to blink slightly.
"Extended version? Did I miss the cliff notes version or did we just skip it?" Bloom asked causing Faragonda to smile fondly at her.
"I'm guessing the 'cliff notes' as you called it are merely a short few paragraphs about it. This must go into detail about it, which is why it's the 'extended' version." Faragonda explained causing Bloom to shrug her shoulders.
"Doesn't tell us what it's about though." Bloom pointed out causing the other teachers to nod in agreement.
"It has a picture of all of us on the front cover if that helps. See?" Saladin said showing them the cover of the book where a picture showing Faragonda and Bloom was. The rest of the teachers were gathered around the two in the background of the picture, with Faragonda and Bloom being the most prominent figures.
"Huh…that's new." Zarathustra remarked from her sisters other side. All of the teachers were sitting away from their students besides Bloom, who was in between DuFour and Faragonda with Palladium behind her and Griselda in front.
"Indeed." Saladin agreed.
"Well…let's just hurry up and get this over with." Cordatora said with a sigh causing the other teachers to nod while the students seemed to be content to stay quiet.
"I'll start first since I have the book already." Saladin said taking his seat between Cordatora and Avalon as he cracked open the book.
"Chapter 1. Where are the teachers?"
"That doesn't sound good." Ediltrude commented idly.
"I think I know what this is about now…" Griffin said causing the other teachers to nod slowly in agreement.
