Faye quickly walked around the house. She felt that this place seemed familar somehow.

"Hmm, must be my imagination. But I swear this house looks familar." she thought to herself.

Then she came across a room that looked like darkness was leaking out of it. She carefully opened it a crack and looked inside. Cale was inside, rummaging through a desk. On top of it, however, was a small crystal that had the kanji symbol Obedience. She quietly closed the door and went downstairs to see if Cye needed any help fixing dinner.

She went downstairs and glanced in the den but shook her head when she saw Audi playing a game with Kento. "Haha! I won again!" Audi said as she started doing a victory dance.

"No fair! You cheated or something!" Kento whined.

Faye walked into the kitchen. "Cye? Are you in there?" she asked.

"Yeah. What's the matter?" he replied.

"Um just wondering if you would like some help?" Faye answered. He seemed surprised but then smiled and agreed that she could
in fact help. He started showing her where everything was and by telling her what they were making.

"Alright I know how to cook stew. But you already started it. So I'll make some home- made bread okay." she said.

"Do you know how to cook? Cause I don't want you to burn something." he asked worriedly.

"I had to cook everyday for Audi. She is the worst cook in the world." she giggled. Cye also started chuckling.

They started dinner and nothing excitedly happened. Except when Kento came in and accidently spilled water on the floor and forgot to say anything.

Faye slipped and fell on Cye, who lost his balance and fell on her and there was a loud crash as they fell on the ground. Faye on the bottom. When everyone came to see what was going on (including the one responsible) they were surprised to see flour everywhere and Cye on top of Faye.

"Cye, I never thought I'd see you hitting on a girl." Sage said grinning wickedly.

"Don't blame Cye. Blame Kento. He's the one who made me crash into Cye." Faye said. Audi looked at Kento. She leaped on his back and wrestled him to the ground.

"Hey! Hey!" Kento yelled as he tried to flip her off. "Wazz that for?"

"You made Cye get ontop of Faye." Audi said.

"So?!"

"..." Audi got him on the floor, and sat ontop of him. "Nevermind that."

Kento's eyes grew large as a light bulb went on inside his mind. "You like Cye!"

"I do not!" Audi said, "I was just worried about Faye! So there!"

"You do, too, like Cye!" Kento said.

"And you don't?"

"..."

Audi laughed so hard she fell off of him. Faye started laughing, too, and leaned against Cale. Cye had turned a bright red and Kento was stuttering. "I, he's my friend... of course I don't like him that way..."

"Sure you don't..." Audi said as she stopped laughing for a minute. This started her up again.

Kento got up and crossed the room to the couch. He picked up a pillow and threw it at Audi. She threw it back, but it hit Sage in the face. He glared at them and walked out, tossing the pillow at Cye. He caught it and threw it at Cale, who wacked Faye with it. She grabbed it out of his hands and tossed it at Audi who smacked Kento with it.
