So you come back to hear more well I must oblige.
There was a quick flash of light and then Leo was gone, but there was a Bey spinning where Leo was standing. "Believe us now, Tenshi?" Mi asked holding her hand out as the Bey returned to her. Sam nodded and started to leave as he was leaving he heard the teacher say "alright now that we know the event their so know turning back and since all of you are on the comity, all of you must attend the event and manage your area. Kayla you'll be the most busy person here that night" Sam opened the door and left, now knowing if the Bey-kid/boy thing would be there, time to tell the dean.
Mi caught Leo and put him in her pocket, not much he can do while the electrical is still shot in here. She watched the Tenshi pause at the door and then leave. "Well now, I'll give all of you a 10 minuet break before you get back to work" and with that the teacher disappeared through the doors.
"I'm the lights guy, why the hell do I have to be there?!"
Is what he would want to say. He'd love to shout that out a million times over if it meant he didn't have to go to a stupid clichéd school dance. With a small huff, he jumped on stage again, and made his way behind the curtain for the second time that day. Screw the break. Wires, gears and tech. Working on that would allow him time to think, time to analyze everything he had seen and heard that day.
Time to think of a way to make sure he isn't at that dance.
Kayla didn't really notice what the teacher said. She wasn't even sure of what she'd be doing for the dance, anyway. She was too shocked. That guy, Leo, he's not just smoke and mirrors. Kayla blinked, "Slightly disappointing, but nonetheless, you guys are for real."
"Why would we lie about it in the first place?" Mi took Leo out of her pocket and launched him and soon he was racing around the stage. /Mi remind me to ask the music teacher to borrow the instruments, the only thing up here is a grand piano/
"alright' Mi turns to Kayla 'So what should be for dinner?, the teacher gave me the Key to the cooking class's room.' Mi leans back to shout back stage 'hey Jaiden what do you want to eat?!" Mi slowly lets her hospitable side take over as she shifts into cooking mode.
Jaiden held the screwdriver in between his teeth, twirling two wires together
and allowing one light to turn on. He chose not to call out and answer. Maybe
if he was quiet they'd forget he was here.
"Well, what do little bey's like to eat?" Kayla joked, "Or does he even need to
eat at all?" That was partially serious. "I'll eat whatever. I'm more of a
'sweets' person." Her eyes were fixated on Leo spinning around.
Mi huffed when Jaiden didn't answer and turned to Kayla, "Leo eats, but only when he's in human form, although he doesn't have every big sweet tooth." Leo spins slowly over to the two girls on the stage and continues to spin in that spot, then he spoke up /you make up for my lack in sweets, Mi./
"So? At least I make my own sweets instead of buying them. That store frosting is disgusting, Belch, anyway, you ready to come back Leo?"
/sure, ready when you are/. There's a small flash of light and then Leo is sitting criss cross where he was spinning a moment ago. "Why don't you just make what ever they have in the class room? Wasn't today's assignment Mac 'in cheese? Use the left over ingredients and make that." Mi looked thoughtful for a moment and then smiled at Leo "where would I be with out you?"
"Not at this school"
"Good point' Mi hops down from the stage and turns around to look at Kayla and Leo 'I'll be back in about a half an hour, Leo dig around in the back and see if there is any other instruments hiding"
"Roger." And with that Mi left the theater.
Alright, question time! Kayla thought. She spun around to face Leo, "You." And
with that, she began to rattle off every question that ran through her mind,
"How long have you been a mutant? How fast can you spin around? Can you spin
around that fast as a human? Do you play an instrument? Can Beys even play
instruments? What happens to your mouth when you switch? How are you able to
talk? If I break you in Bey Form, are you broken as a human? Can you see as a
Bey? If I ripped off your arm as a human, what would happen to you as a Bey?
Are there more people like you? Why doesn't the world know about this? It's
impossible! Am I dreaming?" Kayla paused to pinch her arm.
"um, ever since I can remember. Not sure what you mean. Definitely not. Yes, guitar and vocals. Not as a Bey. I never really though about it. I don't know. Yes actually, and I would like it very much if you didn't break me. Yes or I couldn't battle. There would be a chunk out of my fusion wheel and energy ring. I don't think so. Because I don't like the idea of being a science experiment. No you are not." Leo takes a breath and looks back up at Kayla "is that it?" Leo normally gets more questions, but why instrument? Of all things to as.
The girl blinked, surprised. Not many people have been able to answer all her
questions right back at her. "I'm done."
Leo smirked a bit and stood up "then if you'll excuse me, I need to go rummaging through the storage room" and with that Leo disappeared behind the curtain and made his way into storage room. Talking under his breath to him self "piano is taken care of, I can use my guitar….we can get drums from down stairs, violin from down stairs maybe I can get-no she refuses to play on stages….I'll need a bass player…" Leo when on making this list while going through the props and costumes in the closet.
Putting on a high pitched voice, Kayla mocked him, "If you'll excuse me, I
need to go rummaging through the storage room." She stood there and rocked
back and forth on her heels, unsure of what to do. Her curiosity got the best
of her, as she found herself following Leo behind the curtain. She'll use this
time to study the mutant. It's not stalking if you're in it for science,
right?
Leo continued his work fully aware of Kayla "is there something else you wanted?" Leo asked stacking boxes outside the storage room. He grabbed a few stray costumes and put them in boxes. He continued rummaging through the storage room waiting for her answer.
Well, that cover's blown. "Uh," Kayla tried to think of an excuse, "I'm the
head of all this dance-y stuff, and I demand to know what you're doing."
"alright' Leo sets down a box and leans against them ' I'm cleaning out the storage closet, looking for decorations, instruments, maybe even some cords and wires, really any thing that can help. So what are you doing?" Leo fights back a smirk almost positive he knows the answer already.
"Nothing!" Kayla was quick to respond. "Just... Supervising?"
'Knew it' Leo moved so he wasn't against the boxes any more. "what is there to supervise here?" Leo quickly pulls out his phone checks the time and puts it back. 'Damn its only 4:20'
"I was told that mutants need supervising," Kayla replied. "What's wrong with
4:20?"
"Well I think you might have heard wrong." Leo returned to his work, he started digging something out, speaking over his shoulder "That means I'm here for at least another hour and 40 minutes."
"Oh, poor you," she chimed sarcastically, "Being stuck with me for another 2
hours. How horrendous!"
"Actually I have to spend about a half and hour cleaning the langue room with Mi. plus I have other things to do after school." Leo pulled out an old violin with broken strings, he was looking at the frame with a skeptical eye.
"If you're so busy, why sign up for this dance committee thing?" Kayla asked.
"I signed up because Mi signed up, not because I wanted to. As long as I leave early enough it'll be fine." Leo put the beat up violin on top of the piano and went back to the closet and continued to dig through it.
"And here I thought you were just being nice," the girl inwardly rolled her
eyes. "Find anything yet?"
Leo throws a pack of streamers over his shoulder. "I found those. They might help you considering your doing decorations." Leo continued to look through the closet, waiting for her reply.
Kayla caught them. She whispered to herself, "Decorations! That's what I'm
doing! Got it." Louder, she chimed, "Thanks! By any chance, you wouldn't
happen to find a party planner in there, would you?"
"If you mean party planer as in person, no. but I did find this guide on how to make quick and cheap decorations that are suppose to look good. And this party planer's guide." Leo tosses those to her as well. "And if you weren't doing decorations what would you be doing?" Leo asked hearing what she said before.
She grabbed the first book, but the second caught her off guard and hit her
head. The pain was fleeting, but Kayla crashed to the floor. Rubbing the spot
the book hit, she muttered, "If I weren't doing decorations, I wouldn't be
assaulted with books by a mutant."
Leo stepped out of the closet and knelt down next to her "are you alright?" Leo moved her hand so he could see where the book hit. It might not hurt now but depending on how it hit her it would hurt like hell in the morning and Leo knows that. He dose work part time, after school, in the library.
"Yeah, I'm fine," Kayla sat up a bit. "You just beamed me in the head with a
book. No big deal." She was surprised that he cared; with the way he acts, she
guessed he would've laughed at her. There's definitely a lot more to him than
she thought.
I hope you enjoyed this look into these young children's lives. Have a safe trip home and remember, there is more than meets the eye.
