Chapter Three
After Garnet calmed down, Nell let Garnet down on the floor.
"Now dear, why don't you play with your friends, hmm? It will make you feel better," said Nell scooting Garnet towards two boys and a girl.
The boys and girl raised their hands to Garnet and waited.
When Garnet didn't do anything, the girl said, "What's the matter? Don't you remember our secret handshake anymore?"
Garnet, not knowing what to do, just put her hand out too.
The boys and girl clapped Garnet's hand at once and they shouted, "The Secret Agents are now in force!"
"So, Ben, what report do you have for us today?" asked the girl.
Ben cleared his throat, "Rob and I have found nothing of interest."
"You say that everyday, I don't even know why I ask any more," said the girl.
Garnet giggled. 'So these were my childhood friends. I sure knew how to pick a crowd,' thought Garnet.
"So, Sarah…what about you?" asked the girl.
Garnet looked down at her shoes. "I didn't really find anything of interest either."
'Boy, was that a lie,' thought Garnet.
"Oh! And you are the one that usually has some good reports too," whined the girl.
"I'm sorry," said Garnet.
"It's OK. So, what should we do today?" asked the girl.
"You pick, May, we're all outa ideas," said Rob.
"Well, I was wondering, what is this meeting about?" asked Garnet.
May looked at Garnet as though she were crazy.
"Hasn't your mom told you anything? Some big mean guy is after our village and we're gunna kick his butt!" said May, raising her fist into the air.
"May! I don't want to hear you say such language again!" cried Nell from the other room.
"Sorry Mrs. Nell!" said May. May put a hand in front of her mouth leaning towards Garnet, May whispered, "I swear, she has hearing like an oglop!"
"I heard that!" cried Nell from the other room.
"So…anyway, what should we play today?" asked Ben.
"I suggest we play, 'That Big Mean Guy and We, the village, Beat Him Up!' Sounds fun?" asked May.
"Sure does!" said Rob.
"Duh…I'm duh stupid guy who thinks he can take over Madain Sari. Duh…" said Ben, crossing his eyes.
After half an hour of playing, Nell gave the group some sandwiches and juice and told them to get ready to go. When the parents started to arrive, Garnet waited anxiously for Julia.
"Mommy!" cried Garnet when she saw the tall, beautiful woman walk through the doorway.
"Hi, Sarah! Did you miss me?" asked Julia as she picked up Garnet into her arms.
"Lots! How was the meeting?" asked Garnet.
"Pretty boring stuff, you wouldn't want to hear about it," said Julia. But Garnet could detect a sense of worry in Julia's voice.
"OK…" said Garnet, she knew what was coming.
