Chapter Eighteen

May 24, 2001

7:30 AM CT

Earth: Toyama, Japan

BEEEEEP BEEEEEEP BEEEEEP BEEEEEEP: the alarm clock. Audi lifted her eyes and saw it was 7:30! ~Ohmigod I am LATE!!AGAIN!!~ she quickly showered and put her uniform on. She ran downstairs and everyone was already eating, including Rowen. His uniform was neat and clean. Not one wrinkle was seen. "WHA?!?" Audi stood there staring. Faye was smiling proudly.

"I made a deal with him and it worked!" she said to Audi's shocked face. Audi quickly sat down and ate her breakfast. Afterwards Kayra looked at the two girls.

"Are you two okay?" she asked. Audi and Faye looked at each other.

"Why wouldn't we?" Audi asked. Both had confused expressions on their faces.

"You know, from yesterday." Anubis said, reminding them.

"What are you talking about?" Audi asked. Faye was wearing her confused look when she remembered.

"Oh. You mean when I got sick. I'm perfectly fine." she said. Audi nodded.

"No we're talking about when you two were talking about Mr. Koji being your brother." Rowen said. Everyone nodded.

"I'm sorry I don't know what your talking about." Faye said. Then the Ancient One appeared.

"Ancient One, why do they not remember what happened?" Sage asked. Faye looked up and saw him. He nodded to her and she smiled. She got up and wrapped her arms around his waist.

"Guys, I'd like you to meet my grandfather." she introduced. The guys looked at each other and back.

"You're joking." Kento said.

"She is in fact my granddaughter, ronins." the Ancient said. Faye smiled and she let go of his waist. She went up on tipytoe and kissed his cheek.

"Come on. We're gonna be late if you don't hurry up." she picked her backpack up and Audi followed. The guys didn't move, and Faye suddenly got an idea. "Oooooooohhhhhhh I wanna drive today! I wanna drive today! PUH-LEASEEEEEE!!!!!!!!" Faye said. That got the ronins up and into the car.

"You know Faye, I swear I've never seen anyone move that fast." Audi said.

"Yeah. One sec their here, the next all piled in the car. Bye guys!" Faye answered. She waved to the warlords still sitting there. Then they went to school. During Social Studies, nothing really happened, besides the other girls glaring at them. In the halls, boys would be watching them and the girls pulling their boyfriends away.

"Geez, its like nobody has seen two girls who look like they would train." Audi mumbled.

"Audi, you know that we are differant. I mean, look, we have white and purple hair for cryin' out loud." Faye whispered. They went to their next class, art class. They were doing sculptures this year, lucky for Faye and Audi, and they had to think of something to mold the clay togather. Audi was thinking naughty thoughts, not about a certain auburn though, things like what to do to the project after the grade.

~Hmm, maybe I could use M80, or I could stick rockets in and throw it in a fire, or set the school on fire and stick the rockets into the burning building, or I could smash it with a mace, hmm what else?~ Audi thought.

~Maybe you can just give it to an auburn haired boy that just so happens to live with us?~ Faye said, slyly. Audi blushed.

"Oooo! Is someone thinking naughty thoughts? I think so!" Mr.Begot said, leaning in front of Audi. She jumped back slightly, however she was sitting so her chair flipped over. She fell onto the floor and her skirt flew up a little. She quickly got up and brushed her skirt.

"No I am not!" she said, still blushing. Mr.Begot just wagged his finger.

"You know Audi-chan, you should really stop going so deep in thought that you become startled when someone talks to you." he said. Faye grabbed his arm and led him away from the seething 16 year old. Then she ran back to Audi and tried to calm her down.

"What did he call me!"

"Audi! Calm down! It's alright, calm down, he didn't say anything, that's right, calm down." Faye whispered. Audi sat in her seat and drawing the pot she would make. Faye was working with the clay already. She carefully molded it in to a person. She took a toothpick and drew the face parts on. Then she began to put pieces of clay on the shoulders, arms, elbows and hips. The person's face looked exactly like Donovon's. She set it on the counter so it would dry and she could paint it. A few minutes later the bell rang.
