I'm really trying to keep up with this. I was afraid of this, me forgetting to update. Hopefully I'll get better.


Richard kept looking at his sketch book (not opening it), wondering why it was dry. It should be soaked and ruined, yet it looked fine. Totally fine. Dry. Why did it look like that though? Seriously, that jerky man threw soda- or whatever- on it. It should at least be wet...

He and Jimmy were out in the park, waiting for their creature friends to show up. It had been a while since they'd all hung out, and he thought it was time they got together for a nice day in the park. Their creature friends had called Richard's phone earlier, planning this. So Richard was hoping they'd be here soon.

" Sorry that man tried to ruin your book Richard. "

Jimmy said lightly, snapping the psychic from his thoughts. Richard mustered a soft smile, saying gently.

" Actually, the book looks alright. Like the water was never there. It's kinda weird. "

Jimmy made a face, looking over the book himself. Yet Richard understood. He himself kept looking over the book too. He couldn't help it! How does soda, or whatever it was, just VANISH after soaking a book?! It just wasn't right! Shaking his head, hair flying, he tried to calm himself. He'd have to figure it out later. He'd go nuts now if he tried to figure it out.

Looking up, he soon smiled widely upon finding their creature friends walking over to them. That there, would help him calm down for sure.

Getting up from bench, Jimmy following after, they began to wave to the six: Casper, Thatch, Mantha, Ra, Leah and Lexi. He was so relieved to see them, it had been WAY too long. He would've liked to see Fatch too to an extent (despite knowing the bat hated humans with a passion), but understood the other might not want to be around to many people right now. Due to what happened. A good amount of time had passed since then, but it was still something hard to forget.

" Hey guys! "

Mantha started off cheerfully, Richard having missed her a good deal.

" How have things been for you two? "

Richard sighed a little, still fuming a good deal about that dummy spilling whatever on his book. Jimmy, thankfully, responded first.

" Pretty good. Quiet, but good. How's Fatch been doing? "

" He's been doing better. "

Casper responded softly.

" We can all tell he's still a bit bothered by what Dean put him through, but who can blame him? I'm sure he just needs some time to relax, and take his mind off things. "

" *shivers* Ah, Dean... "

Thatch said lowly. Shivering, everyone having almost forgotten the bat was there and tormented too. Leah, bringing an arm around him, frowning gently. Even without a voice, she was very expressive whenever Thatch was down. It was cute to see.

Lexi turned to the pair, twirling her umbrella a little, asking lightly.

" So Richard. Tell me, how have you been? "

Richard was half fuming half trying to answer her question.

" Well. I was fine until some IDIOT spilt his drink on my sketch book. "

The group gasped, looking at the book Richard held out, looking for the damage. Lexi, Leah and Thatch moving beside the human and trying to see the stains.

" So uncool! "

Ra said loudly, lowering himself a bit to try and find the damage on the bottom of the book.

" Is your book ok? "

Casper asked gently, looking at the top. The group finding... nothing. Mantha, soon huffing and grabbing the top, propping it open a little.

" Is there even any-? "

The book suddenly SNAPPED open, a blinding light escaping it and soon engulfing the three creatures in light! Without warning, the trio dissolved and their light was sucked into the book, the book itself now snapping back shut. A glow seen briefly on the rims of the book before disappearing, things back to normal.

Richard, shaken, slowly opened the book, no glow seen this time. Nor were their friends seen anywhere. Leah tapped his shoulder, Richard looking and finding her holding up her book.

" What just happened? "


" D***... "

Yuki cursed,Wulfric just relieved she we as calmer than Pyro. He too was a little ticked, having not minded if that psychic punk DID get sucked into that book.

" I'd better tell Pyro. "

" Well, what should I do now Yuki? "

" I don't know yet Wulfric. Do what you'd like. Use the mirror, I dont really care right now. "

As she left, Wulfric turned to the mirror. She didn't care what he did, huh? Well. Since he wasn't allowed to leave Nerezza right now, he might as well use the mirror. Perhaps he could make sure that puppy from before wasn't trying anything on HIS Middy.

Face now hard in determination, he waved his hand over the mirror, changing it to find that puppy waiting around the corner of a building. Looking... mischievous. Wulfric wondering what the hell that puppy was doing.


So sorry it took so long. I got distracted and WAY busy. Hope it was worth the wait.
