Jack: Well, since DL has passed out… we have no chapter.

Mystery: WHAT!? But-but… we NEED one!

Jack: … know how to wake her up?

Mystery: *thinks for a bit* Yup! *walks over to Dead Life, and whispers something in her ear. She immediately gets up and starts strangling poor Jack*

Jack: What-GACK- did- GACK- you- GACK- tell- GACK- her!!

Mystery: That you were taking over this fic. Anyway, on to the chapter!

            The sun's rays gently flowed onto Lila's sleeping face. She stirred a bit, and the slowly woke up, and yawned. "Hmm… wonder what time it is. It feels so… early. Wait a second…. WHAT THE HECK AM I GONNA WEAR?!?!?!?!?!" she screamed. That brought Mike in.

"Er… Lila? What was that about?" He asked sleepily. "Mike- I have no clothes!"

"What about the ones you're wearing? Anyway, you had to have packed extra clothes if you were running away." Lila blinked.

"How'd you know that?" she asked.

Mike shrugged. "Guess you don't think ahead, do you?" he asked.

"B-But… Oh, never mind. Let's just concentrate on what I'm to wear today."

"How about what you're wearing?

"NO WAY"

"Yes." Lila pouted. Reluctantly, she wore the same clothes.

"Let's talk to Numair about our crisis." She said.

"Lila, it's not a crisis."

"Yes it is! How could you say wearing absolutely EVERYTHING the same again isn't a crisis! It's gross!"

Mike sighed. "It really isn't, Lila. Anyway, let's go find Numair. He'll help us." Lila nodded.

 "Anyway, I need to get my laptop back." Mike went pale.

"Don't tell me you-" He said.

"Yup. Lent it to him for the night. Don't worry, I set really strict restrictions on the internet. The only thing he could get to was the stuff in my favorites, and those are my websites." She said. Mike sighed reluctantly.

"Now that could be a crisis." He mumbled.

"I heard you." Lila said.

"So?"

"You annoy me."

"And very proud of it." Lila shoved Mike against the wall.

"What was that for?"

"Don't act like it hurt, Mike. It didn't."

"Well, it could've!" Mike protested.

"Do you think I would have cared?" Lila asked.

"Well, I kinda hoped you would."

"Tough luck, Mike" Lila said, and walked out the door.

"You're obviously not a morning person, Lila." Mike said accusingly.

"You just figured that out?" Lila said sarcastically.

"Yeah- hey! I haven't seen you in the morning before." He protested.

"And thank God…" Lila mumbled under her breath.

"Lila, don't go there." Mike said.

"Gladly." Lila said. Mike followed her out the door, and they walked down the halls.

"Let's go right." Lila suggested.

"No, left." Mike said.

"Right."

"Left."

"Right."

"Left."

"Right."

"Left."

"Right."

"Left."

"Right!"

"Left!"

"Left!"

"Right!"

"OKAY!" Lila said, very happy that Mike fell for that, and walked right.

"Hey! No fair!" Mike said, but followed her anyway.

Lila then turned left, went straight, left, right, right, straight, left, straight, right, right, straight, left, right.

"Lila… this place looks creepy and abandoned."  Mike said.

"Let's go back then."

"Oh, and you know the way?"

"Yup."

Lila took the lead, going left, right, straight, left, right, straight, left, right, left, straight, right, and the left back to where they had started. (A/N: That… was… hard…I drew their route out on a paper, and mind you, ya have to turn the paper each time. Then I went back, to write their route back.) Mike blinked.

"Wow… how'd you know they way back?" Mike said. Lila laughed.

"Dunno. Just guessed." She said.

"WHAT!? You better be happy you were lucky today, Lila…" he growled. Lila laughed.

"Hey, at least I got you back here." She said. She turned around, and then saw Numair.

"Wow, you're finally awake. It's really late in the morning, you two." He said.

"Late? This is early!" Lila looked at her watch. "What? It's only six-thirty…" she whimpered.

"Lila, you get up now anyway." Mike informed.

"Yeah, but today's Saturday, Mike! The one day you get to sleep until lunch…" Mike gave her an odd look.

"No wonder. That explains a lot about you. Anyway, it seems you forgot your so-called 'crisis', Lila."

"Oh yeah! Numair, I don't have any other clothes to wear…" Numair sighed.

"We'll get you new ones tomorrow. Today, we're all busy." He said.

"WHAT!? You mean I have to wear the same clothes all…day… long?" Lila said.

"Uh, yeah, Lila. That's what he means." Mike said. Lila pouted a bit, then went back to her room. Mike blinked.

"Wait… Lila!" he said, and followed her in. Numair sighed.

"Wonder what that's about…" he said, and walked away. Lila came out, with a package of pop-tarts in her hands.

"Go get your own breakfast, Mike." She said.

"But Lila…" he whimpered. "Breakfast is probably over by now…"

"Too bad. Ya snooze, you loose, Mike!" she said.

She ran after Numair, not wanting to get lost again. "Numair!" she called. He turned around.

"What is it?"

"Er… what do, or what can we do today?" she asked.

"You're having a meeting with Jon today at noon." He said.

"Anything else?"

"You can help with the horses, I guess." He said. "That is, if you know how to take care of horses."

"Sure I do! I had a horse in my old home." She said.

"Then, follow me." Lila and Mike followed Numair to the stables. Lila opened her pop-tarts up.

"It's not the same…" she whimpered. Numair gave her a strange look. "Pop-tarts are s'posed to be toasted…  I don't ever eat them plain."

"I thought your toaster broke two months ago, Lila." Mike said.

"And I haven't eaten pop-tarts in two months, for your information, Mike." She said. Lila walked down the stalls, looking at all the horses. "Wow… they're really tiny horses." She said.

"They're ponies," Numair said. Lila just sighed.

"Guess you were right, Mike. Special Dreams is a big horse." She said.

"Lila, he made average sized horses look like little ponies." He said.

"Ah, well." Lila sighed. She was told first to feed them, then groom them. She finished right at noon. "Mike…" she said, "Where do we go?"

"No clue."

"Ah, okay." Numair came in, suspecting they would probably get lost without him.

"It's time." He said.

"You make it seem like it's something we should dread…" Lila mumbled, but followed anyway.

They walked down the corridors silently. They finally reached their destination. When they walked into the room, Jon got up. They didn't like the look on his face.

"You're leaving the palace. Now."

So, how was that chapter? So sorry it took so long to get up. JUST REVIEW!!! Bye!
