Sheba unveiled the most hideous and most stomach turning thing anyone could ever comprehend, a device so sinister, so devious, so disgustingly deformed not even the wise one itself could look at it without barfing, even though he doesn't have a mouth. It was a jar filled with... grape jelly and dead fish! The jar was shaped like a pear, the kind you eat, not any other kinds...and it had two tubes from each side going into the top metal lid, where two torches sat lit up, it looked like the half melted jelly and fish were being sucked into the tubes and put in the torches as some kind of fuel! The others had not even said a word at this atrocity, for it was too surprising to respond to.
"Well? Isn't it genius?" Sheba asked them all excitedly.
"What the he- I mean...heck is this for Sheba?" Mia asked; surprised at the way she spoke.
"It's stupid!" Isaac yelled, and then covering his mouth, he was surprised what he said; sure he thought it was stupid, but why did he say it out loud? And why couldn't he lie? One thing was good though, Sheba was too busy to hear him.
"I found a way to convert dead fish and grape jelly....into energy!" Sheba answered with the biggest smile anyone could make. "See...the torches? They were lit without fire!" Sheba said pointing to the torches.
"That...is the most disgusting thing I've seen in my life! There are fish eyeballs in there!" Jenna said while turning green and covering her mouth.
"Isn't it just great? This container keeps the smell from getting anywhere...I'd admit you'd rather not look at this...so." Sheba pushed something on the back of the jar and a metal covering slid over all visible glass until it looked like a ball of titanium with two torches on the top of it.
"Awesome..." Isaac said amazed.
"Glad someone thought is was, although I do enjoy hearing the others disgusted comments better!" Sheba replied to Isaac.
"Well, I'd have to say this is one of your "best inventions Sheba." Felix said sarcastically.
"Thanks!" Sheba sang.
"I think Jenna threw up on my robes..." Mia said, examining her robes while Jenna threw her cookies into a bag from the disgusting sight.
"I'm surprised no one noticed her doing that." Isaac said, then walking over to her and patting her back soothingly.
"Ugh..." Jenna moaned and cleaned her mouth with a napkin she had in her pocket, then while closing the bag and tying it with a string, plopped it in Isaac's hands causing it to make a sickening noise.
"Argh! Jenna!" Isaac complained.
"Oh, be quiet." Jenna snapped.
"Yes Ma'am" Isaac replied.
Mia wondered how Jenna had done that to Isaac....assertiveness. Why haven't I thought of such a thing? It's too late now...she thought. I could be assertive if I want after asking that question soon enough...
"Well, we should be going; we don't want to intrude any longer." Said Jenna with a bit of fatigue in her voice.
"Yhea, we shall find some other things to do while we leave you with your experiments Sheba, right Isaac?" Mia asked poking him in the side.
"No." Isaac said unwillingly, he was starting to freak out.
"..." Mia forgotten the effects of Sheba's potion, Mia figured Sheba said nothing when Isaac yelled "It's stupid" because she must have guessed she used it on Isaac! Crap! Crap! Crap! Mia yelled in her head.
"He doesn't mean that!" Mia said quickly covering his mouth and taking him outside.
"Well, we will be seeing you Felix and Sheba!" Jenna said, suddenly feeling a lot better then following the two.
"Bye!"
Mia, Isaac and Jenna had just finished climbing the hill near the river in vale when they seen Garet near the river, unconscious. Mia and Isaac decided to rush over to him while Jenna stayed back and turned away, she didn't want to see anyone who drenched her in waste and toilet water...
"Hey Garet! Wake up!" Mia turned him over and seen no marks on him or anything, Mia guessed the serpent fume Jenna cast was not mars enchanted, but rather a blow resembling a very large blast shaped like it...like fake pysnergy.
"Hun..." Garet stirred and opened his eyes to see Mia and Isaac hovering right over him; suddenly he sat up and blinked a few times. "What happened? All I remember is yelling "yes!" before things went black..." Garet said.
"Jenna cast a serpent fume on you..." Isaac said remembering the hell on earth attack Jenna cast on Garet.
"Oh, I remember now....oh...boy..." Garet slowly turned his head looking for any sign of Jenna, and then he spotted her on the hill looking down at her feet. "I hope she isn't still angry at me..."
"You'll have to find out dude." Isaac said frowning.
Garet gotten up to his feet and dusted himself off, and then began the seemingly long walk up to the hill preparing an apology.
"Um...hey Jenna." Garet spoke to Jenna, she had her back to him, and it was hard to say much to her. "Jenna....listen, I'm really sorry, ever since I've seen you I wanted to be with you...to protect you...to care for you like something more important than alchemy itself...But I have failed, by soiling you with my vile discretions...I'm so sorry, all I wanted for you was you to be happy, to feel safe, clean from all evil in this world...I would give my life...everything for you...I'm sorry for doing what I did..."
Jenna turned around and dropped to her knees sobbing, she had no Idea what she had done. It was never his fault...it was an accident...and she hurt him. She felt like the biggest idiot on this planet, she started to think herself worthless. She felt like nothing...to such a man as kind as Garet.
"I'm so sorry Garet! It wasn't your fault! I don't deserve someone so kind..." Jenna said sobbing.
Garet kneeled in front of Jenna and picked her head up. "Jenna, it's alright, I'm alright! See! I think I may have actually liked flying through the air like that!" Garet said stupidly, but kindly. "Jenna, I could never hate you, or think you undeserving of anything, because, I am the one who should think that way." Garet said smiling and wiping away her tears.
"Oh, Garet!" Jenna embraced Garet and hugged him tight, crying her eyes out.
"It's alright Jenna." Garet said softly patting her back.
Mia seen everything and looked at Isaac, who was smiling broadly at the sight. Mia wondered if the potion being sprayed on his scarf was actually the right thing to do...after seeing Garet and Jenna...morals were a hard thing to put into place.
The next day things were strange....it was a rainy day and Isaac had decided to invite everyone to an all day and night party at his house, he decided that it was the least thing he could do, since everybody couldn't do a thing outside at all...except maybe dance in the rain, but that has a high risk of getting you sick...quickly. To make the party interesting Isaac and his mom has prepared beverages like Soda, water and juice, and some foods including pizza, cheese cubes on a stick(Garets Idea) and some other meals that should hold them until Dora had finished the turkey she was cooking...for no reason at all. All of these things were assorted onto a white table in the middle of the room, while everyone sat in front of Isaac near the rear of the house, staring at random things and or yawning, even piers had managed to make it.
"So, what do you guys feel like doing?" Isaac asked clapping his hands and smiling, ready for something fun to do.
"We could play tag!" Sheba suggested.
"Are you nuts? That would break everything!" Piers exclaimed.
"Exactly." Sheba said grinning from ear to ear.
"How about Charades?" Mia suggested.
"That's way to boring..." Felix remarked while twirling his hair.
"Well excuse me for trying." Mia snapped.
"Must be her time..." Felix mumbled to Jenna, big mistake, he thought he was talking to Piers.
"Oh, really? So half the things we do out of the ordinary is blamed on our PMS?! Huh, Felix?!" Jenna said flaring up, literally.
"Oh, god! No! Not at all! I'm sorry Jenna!" Felix said embarrassed as everyone was staring at him, except the girls...they were glaring.
"That's better Felix...I'll just give you a punishment later!" Jenna said smiling.
"Darn...I am such a fool." Felix mumbled.
"Yes, you are." Ivan said, after hearing him.
"I'll get you Ivan." Felix turned towards him and shook his fist.
"Meep." Ivan backed up a bit.
"How about we play....truth or dare!" Garet yelled suggestively after a long silence.
"Oh! That's a great Idea!" Sheba said laughing.
"Sure..." Jenna agreed.
"Why not?" Mia said giddily a little too enthusiastic.
"Uh-oh..." Isaac said. He knew he could not tell any lies...and if he chose truth, or was forced to...he would be at the mercy of the questioner.
Everyone gathered into the middle of the house after moving the table, and sat in a circle of eight, after everyone was ready, the game began. Before anyone could start, they had to chose who would be first to start, so they played Rock, scissors, paper. And Sheba was the victor.
"Yes!" Sheba yelled punching her arm into the air. "I go first!"
"Ugh!" Everyone except Sheba, moaned, this couldn't be good.
"And I choose...Ivan!" Sheba pointed a finger at him and smiled. "Truth or Dare?"
"....Truth!" Ivan replied.
"Ok..." Sheba scratched her head as everyone waited impatiently for a question to be asked. "Do....you like...me?" Sheba said blushing.
"Gah! Uh...gulp..." Ivan pulled on his collar and started to sweat, he was nervous.
"Come on! Ivan, tell us!" Garet said even more interested in the game than before.
"If you don't say anything, the penalty is an atomic wedgie!" Sheba said warning him, while cracking her knuckles.
"Ack! Fine I do!" Ivan said his face beet red.
"Yay!" Sheba pounced him and hugged him tight.
"Sheba! Air!" Ivan managed to scream.
"Oh...sorry." Sheba let go and sat back down in her spot, while Ivan gasped.
"Ok...my turn." Jenna said hesitantly. "...Alright! Felix! Truth or dare?"
"Hmm...Dare." Felix replied smiling.
"Good....good..." Jenna smiled evilly and rubbed her hands together, this was going to be good. "I dare you...to eat a cockroach!" Jenna yelled, pointing at one next to the door.
Felix looked over to the cockroach and frowned. "Never!" Felix protested.
"If you don't...the alternative is licking the floor." Jenna said testing.
Felix looked at the floor and seen all kinds of dirt from under his boots, his eyes widened. "Alright...I'll do it!"
Felix then walked over to the door and picked up the wriggling roach, he grimaced, he would get her for this...oh he would. He opened his mouth and pinched his nose, and then he threw the thing into his mouth and chewed fast. It made sickening noises of all sorts and some of the adepts threw up chunks.
"wOOt!" Jenna squeaked. "That was the best!" Jenna exclaimed.
"Ugh...I'm never going to eat again..." Felix said disgusted...
"I believe that it's my turn." Mia said smiling, she knew exactly who to ask....Isaac.
"Go for it." Piers encouraged.
"Alright....Isaac!" Mia exclaimed.
Isaac looked up from his plate of pizza and swallowed. "Crap!"
"Truth or dare Isaac?" Mia hoped for truth.
Isaac knew that if he said truth...it would be disastrous... "Dare, Mia."
"NOOOO!!!!" Mia yelled and rose to her knees yelling with her arms out as if to catch something circle shaped.
Isaac backed up a bit, scared.
"Uh...sorry...heh.." Mia said sitting back down. "Alright Isaac I dare you too...hmmm...uhh...."
"Will you get it over with?!" Jenna yelled at her, getting impatient.
"Alright! Sheesh...Isaac! I dare you to eat everything on that table within 5 minutes!" Mia said to him, grinning.
"Oh, Yhea!" Isaac said suddenly appearing with a fork, spoon and a napkin tucked in his collar.
"I would like to see that!" Felix said amused.
"Yhea...you think he could eat faster than Garet?" Jenna asked.
"No one can eat faster than I!" Garet said punching his chest. "My record was two minutes!"
"You're probably right." Jenna said agreeing.
"Well see about that!" Mia said getting up and walking over next to Isaac, then she ripped off her clothing revealing a referee costume complete with hat and whistle.
"Whoa..." Isaac said blushing.
"Don't worry Isaac! You can beat him!" Mia said rubbing his shoulders. "Just pretend its cake!" Mia said reassuringly.
"Yhea...sure..." Isaac said a little dazed.
"Alright Isaac, Ready?" Mia said holding a stop watch.
Isaac shook off his daze and readied himself. "Ready!"
"Go!!!" Mia yelled.
