Chapter 22: Jason

There is a song stuck in my head. " I'm still standing,"

" Um...what was that?" Ru gives me a look, and then whispers, "I must tell you friendly in your ear, sell when you can, you are not for all markets."

" I heard that. Besides it's just a motivational song called 'I'm Still Standing'."

" Weirdo."

" Sic em, Lightning." I yell.

" Lightning won't pounce on me. Or as you call it, he will not ' sic' me,"

He is a nice friend, but he just won't shut the heck up!

" Why do you wish for me to shut the heck up, little Jason?" How does he know that! I never said that out loud! Does he read minds or something?

" For your information, I can read minds. So if I were you, then I would suit your mind." Wh-

" I said shut your mind! Now let's go,"

"First off, how can you read minds?!" I exclaim.

"Being the son of Rudolph and Clarise has its perks of its own."

" Okay, stop bragging. Like you said, let's go."

Then just like that, we're off to save Noel. And I guess Holly too.
