Kira arrived in the cave and immediately ran into George.
"Ow!" He exclaimed, quickly slapping his hand over his mouth to silence the noise.
"Oh!" Kira said as they both hit the ground.
"Watch were yer goin, huh?" George hissed, hot at all pleased with being run into.
Kira nodded, eyes rolling around in her skull as she tried to refocus everything. They both stood up and continued down the path. Kira wasn't surprised that Mr. Weasley hated these things. They popped out of the rocks and had ugly faces and sharp fangs. George bit his upper lip and glared at the eel. Mocking it. The eel seemed deeply annoyed by this and retreated back into the rock. Kira followed George as they traveled through the cave. They saw all different types of eel. Trinidy seemed to have no problem with the eels and seemed quite relaxed. They traveled deeper and deeper into the cave untill they heard a sound from up ahead.
"Yes, that is a very interesting...thing... Don't you even think about sticking your hand in there" Mr. Weasley growled. "What did I JUST tell you!"
George and Kira peered around the corner in time to see Fred, with his hand inside a giant eel head model. He rolled his eyes as his father once again told him to remove his hand. "It's not like it's gonna bite m-" He stopped, his eyes grew wide and he tried to jerk his hand free. "AaahhhHH!!" Fred moaned. "Let go!" He pleaded, desperately.
Mr. Weasley panicked and jumped forward, Fred howled and tried to free his arm. Kira saw blood seeping down Fred's arm as he clutched it with his other hand and pulled in his life or death struggle against the man eating eel head. Kira gasped and George grabbed her shoulders as she tried to leap forward and help.
Mr. Weasley, despite his fear of eels, slammed his hands into the mouth of the creature and pried it open. Fred screamed in anguish and fell to the ground. Mr. Weasley grabbed him by the collar of his shirt and hauled him away form the head. Kira was still being held back, but her worry faded as Fred's cries turned to unmistakable fits of laughter. Mr. Weasley was trying to heal Fred's arm, with no success, but stopped when he heard the laughter. He was kneeling and his look changed from concern to aggravation. George was snickering and released Kira. She came around the corner, followed by George and Trinidy. Fred was still laughing and Mr. Weasley stood up with an annoyed, confused look on his face.
"Alright" George grinned. "How'd you do it?" He asked.
Fred reached into his pocket and pulled out a thin plastic bag. George took it and smiled.
"Wonderful, you reach in the bag, grab out bit of this stuff, slap it onto your arm... and voila You're bleeding" He bowed lowly to Fred.
"Give me that!" Mr. Weasley demanded, taking the bag.
"Fred!" Kira laughed as he flicked 'blood' onto her.
"Fred!" Mr. Weasley's tone wasn't as friendly. "You are going to go apologize to the house elf here! Then you are going to clean this up, then you're-!"
"Relax Dad" Fred giggled. "it's magic ink" George gaped at him, awed by the genius of it all. "Magic ink that I convinced Bill to transfigure into red magic ink, instead of blue"
"Brilliant" George clapped. "Absolutely marvelous"
Kira listened to this and had to laugh. She had heard that Muggle children had a very limited vocabulary up untill they were six. Wizard children learned the language quickly, some even talked as early as a week old. Simple words, but still. She wondered what life would be like if Fred and George were Muggles. God save the Muggle society, she smiled. Mr. Weasley however, seemed ready to put a permanent silencing charm on the two of them.
"Man! I wish I had a camera!" Fred smiled. "Your face. That was classic!"
"Sucker!" George teased.
Mr. Weasley gave them both an unamused look and they continued to make fun of him.
"I think" Kira interrupted. "That your dad just proved that he loves you more then anything" They stared at her. "George, you said he was afraid of eels, yet he was brave enough to face his fear when he though his son was in danger. He was willing to risk his own life as long as he could save you" She shrugged.
"..." George didn't state.
"..." Fred agreed.
They looked to their father.
"Awwwww dad" Fred put on a mock touched look and clung to his fathers arm. "You would have saved me from the fake eel"
"My hero" George agreed.
"I think I just made everything worse" Kira mumbled, sinking down to the ground in an effort to disappear.
"Not at all" Mr. Weasley smiled, pulling her to her feet and carrying her bag for her. "If you two are done idolizing me. I'd like to inform you of the sign above the 'fake' eel'
George rolled his eyes and looked up at the sign.
'Warning! DO NOT TOUCH! Cursed! Made by an professional exhibit designer. This eel was cursed by a dark wizard and has the tendency to come alive! Be aware! We are not responsible for the loss of limbs'
George's smile faded and Fred grabbed his arm, the ink had disappeared and he was looking intently for any marks. They looked to their father with real idolization and followed in quiet awe.
"Wow" Kira whispered. "You knew it was cursed?"
"Oh, no. That sign is nothing but a hoax. A joke to scare people" He smiled down at her and winked. "But to tell you the truth" His voice even lower then before. "I though it was real at that moment"
After exploring the aquarium they went to watch a show. The show was a dance show. Kira smiled and clapped as her dance teacher walked onto the stage.
"You know her?" George asked, confused in Kira's interest in the one person.
"Yes. She is my teacher" Kira answered, smiling.
"No way!" Fred argued, watching the woman on stage cartwheel, back flip and land gracefully in the splits.
"She's very talented" Mr. Weasley stated to Kira.
Kira nodded and her teacher swung her legs forward, propelling herself backwards and landing elegantly on her feet. Then she whipped out her baton and lit it on fire. Kira was always amazed by her teacher, she was so talented, yet liked to teach little kids. She should have been working for some big dance academy. However, she said the hotel paid her well and she loved seeing her students later on in life as they performed professionally. She made dancing fun, she taught even the type that you only say in special shows or at a circus. Yet it was all striking, impressive, and amazing. After the show, they rushed all the way across the resort to participate in a scavenger hunt the hotel was having. Fred and George approached the stairs and prepared for the race. They had done this at every stairway, so far three times.
"Ready, set, go!" Mr. Weasley called.
Fred and George grabbed the railings and to their surprise, Kira grabbed the third one. They all slid down. Fred in the lead, then George, Fred, Kira, George. George pulled ahead.
"Agghhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!" He screamed as the ground rushed up at him. He landed in a heap on the ground, not exactly sure, how his spine was doing what it was doing.
"Eeeeyaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!" Fred bellowed, a second after George. Landing with a dull thud and his feet up near his head.
"Cool" Kira stated, a second after Fred. Elegantly landing on her feet.
"No Fair!" Both boys exclaimed.
"You flew off that while going just as fast as we did!" Fred growled.
"How in Merlin's name did you land! I sense cheating!" George accused.
"If you'd like a second race, I'll do it" Kira stated, eyes wide with worry and voice sounding like an apologetic plea.
"...Nah" Fred mumbled, her voice broke his heart.
"My spine couldn't take it" George said.
They rushed on to the scavenger hunt. There were three other kids there so the person in charge decided it would be three on three. The adults retreated into the clubhouse for drinks and to watch a quidditch match. Mr. Weasley was surprised by how nice everyone was to him. He supposed that they assumed he was r- no that wasn't it. Anyone could have known that he wasn't rich. Yet, these people didn't seem to care, he was amongst some of the highest respected wizards around, and they all treated him as an equal. Most of them knew Kira too.
"Nice thing you're doing fer her parents. They busy folks" One man stated.
"It's no problem. Our house is like a second home to kids year round" Mr. Weasley said.
"And that Kira, she's a sweet heart. I wish I knew where her parents were" Another gentleman sighed.
"I thought they were here?" Mr. Weasley stated.
"Hmm? Oh, so you don't know. Kira is adopted"
"What?" Mr. Weasley asked.
"Yeah, her parents just abandoned her. The people caring for her now are trying to find her a home, but they aren't in any hurry to be rid of her"
They talked for a while, about the quidditch teams, someone who was trying to create a new school, and just 'normal' guy stuff. After an hour, a very triumphant group of three kids walked into the room. A few seconds later three more kids leapt into the room, doing their best to make a grand entrance.
"Awww, the losers return triumphantly" Mr. Weasley smiled.
"Well, yeah. We thought you'd have gotten mad if we had ambushed the other team, so when we saw 'em go near the club house we made a run for the door" George explained.
Kira collapsed onto the floor and sat against the wall, they'd been running the entire hour. Fred wasn't looking to alert either, he was carrying the bag. George looked like he was ready to sit for a while.
"You all look ready for ice cream" The man in charge of the activity said, handing the winners their prizes, which turned out to be chocolate frogs. "They'll have it for you in the restaurant"
"Yay!" Fred and George cheered simultaneously.
"Come on lets go, lets go!" Fred urged, pulling his father's sleeve towards the door.
George grabbed Kira and they headed out to the hotel. Kira trotted along behind George, really tired. Once again, the raced down the stairs (Climbing up them just to race) and once again, one of the twins won, but Kira made a soft landing on her feet. George ended up crying for a little bit, he scrapped his knee. He was two, so it's understandable. Mr. Weasley announced the end of the racing, much to the annoyance of Fred and George. However, Trinidy couldn't have been happier about it. They jumped through the double doors and Kira led the way to the restaurant.
"Good evening Mrs. Kira. Will Ms. Lily be joining you?" Asked a tall man standing at the door to the restaurant.
"No" Kira answered. She turned to the Weasleys. "This is Scott, he's in charge of the restaurant" She explained.
"Pleasure to meet you" Scott greeted. "I assume you are here for ze ice cream"
"Uh hu" Kira nodded.
"Ah, Lady Trinidy, pleasure to serve you again, are we annoying Mr. Ettiks today?" He asked Trinidy. Mr. Ettiks still was unaware that Kira REALLY had befriended a faerie.
"Not today" Trinidy smiled.
"Quick, everyone inside and you get first pick of the ice cream" Scott waved them in, holding the door open.
George and Fred didn't need to be asked a second time, they dashed through the doors faster then you could say abra kadabra. Mr. Weasley and Kira followed. The reached the buffet of ice cream and the twins stood in pure awe.
"T-they have-" Fred started.
"Everything!" George filled in.
"Seems that way" Mr. Weasley smiled.
"I'm sorry, I can't find your names on my guest list" Exclaimed Scott, warning the people inside the restaurant that they had better get their ice cream quick or the other people would beat them to it.
"Is he holding off the other team?" Fred asked.
"Yes" Kira answered, standing on a stool and scooping out ice cream.
"Yay!" George squealed and began decorating his ice cream with toppings.
"Hmm, this ice cream needs a topping" Mr. Weasley stated. "Oh, yes, another flavor....and another....one more... maybe two more"
"Oooh, they have Dragon's scale" Fred whispered and grabbed the scoop for that flavor.
"How exactly does a dragon taste?" Kira asked.
"Are you mad? Just because they call it rocky road, doesn't mean you're eating gravel" Fred nodded, scooping some of the red ice cream into her bowl.
George also took to decorating Kira's bowl. Kira watched and pointed out things she wanted.
"Here's your name! Sorry for the inconvenience, I assure you it'll never happen again" Scott called over to them.
They quickly ran to a table and looked at what marvelous creations would be making them sick later on.
"What's that?" Kira asked, pointing to a blue and red swirled round candy that was onto of Mt. Wipcream.
"Mwahahahahahaha!" George replied, with ice cream on his nose.
"Son? Is your nose cold?" Mr. Weasley asked, smirking.
"That" Fred interrupted. "Is a C.B.C"
"...A what?" Kira asked, climbing Mt. Wipcream with her spoon and air lifting the CBC down to eye level.
"C.B.C. Crystal Ball Candy" Fred explained, eyeing the Bertie Bots jellybean suspiciously.
"Oh" Kira responded, loosing interest in the candy. She liked Wizard candy because it was weird and usually did something.
"No, no. This is cool, watch" George looked to his father. Mr. Weasley smiled and took out his wand, he tapped the C.B.C. Three times, the candy shimmered and the colors swirled around.
"Now, eat it" George instructed.
Kira followed the order and plopped the candy into her mouth. She didn't taste the hard round candy she was expecting. Instead, she tasted a sweet, warm liquid that coated her mouth and seemed to flow into her senses themselves. Kira almost fell out of her chair when a burst of flavor his her and flowed through her. When the sensation ended, Kira hopped out of her chair.
"Where ya goin?" George asked.
"I'm gonna get another one" Kira chirped back.
Fred laughed, then, noticing she was serious, jumped out of his chair. "I want one too"
After the ice cream, Mr. Weasley prompted the idea of washing up and removing all traces of their feast.
"If your mother finds out what I fed you for lunch..." He shook his head.
"... If your worried, there is a smoothie...kind of thing... shop a few blocks from here" Kira stated, not really enjoying the idea of eating a grass shake after the sugary goodness of ice cream. Ah, ice cream.
"Why does a little girl know where the health food store is?" Mr. Weasley asked.
"I go there... a lot... everyday after mommy gets done working" Kira states, eyes forward.
"Eeeewwww!" George gags.
"It's g-... not that bad" Kira shrugs.
"... Not feeling as bad about the ice cream anymore" Mr. Weasley states.
"Hey, lets go play tennis. Is sounds fun... you play it, right? Or lets go play with the fountains, or swim in the pool, or go to the gym, or, or, or!" Fred hyperventilated.
"Come my sugar rushed son, we shall have you run around for a little while, then get you home before the coma sets in" Mr. Weasley laughed.
"Coma? Coma, coma, coma, coma, comacomacomacomacomacomacomacoma!" George repeated.
Mr. Weasley ushered them over to a part of the hotel called 'Golly Grapes Tea-leaf.' Mr. Weasley smiled. He knew that seeing grapes in tealeaves meant 'good times with friends.' It was an indoor, magical, amusement park. Roller coasters flew through the air, with wings instead of a track. The lights were sparks and shimmering fireflies of all different colors. The ceiling was enchanted and looked like clouds, bumper cars flew, the go carts were brooms, the games were catch the toad, which brew?, snag the snitch, there were games for older kids, teenagers, too. The haunted house, a giant game of chess, (no, you weren't a chess piece) the house of headmasters, owl races. There were so many wonderful rides, games, food stands, costume stores, balloon stands, scenery. It was amazing. The three kids ran around for an hour, then one by one, they stopped. Mr. Weasley wouldn't allow them to ride rides, said they'd throw up. Instead, they played games. After they were done. They went over to the health food store. Mr. Weasley asked for four samples. They quickly downed the samples and left.
"That way you can tell your mother I fed you health food" Mr. Weasley explained.
"Nah, she'll never believe it" Fred stated.
"...I..." Kira dropped. "I don't wana walk anymore"
"Can't blame you" George stated, dropping to his knees and leaning his back against the wall.
"Get up you wusses" Fred urged.
"Wusses! We were the ones still going the last twenty minutes!" George snapped.
"Can't argue... to... tired" Kira stated.
"D'you want more sugar?" Trinidy smiled evilly.
"No, no, no" Kira shook her head, for a kid only allowed one cookie a day, she had had an overload.
"...Yes" Mr. Weasley teased and quickly had a shoe thrown at his skull.
"And now, my shoes gone" Kira stated.
"Yeah, gimmi back Kira's shoe!" Fred demanded.
"Trinidy? Where is my shoe?" Kira asked, completely zonked out.
"Did you loose it?" Trinidy laughed.
Kira nodded and George pulled himself to his feet, retrieving the shoe and dropping it infront of Kira.
"There it is" She stated, staring at the shoe. "I came back" She put her shoe on and stood up. Then she stepped out of Fred's reach so he couldn't throw her shoe again.
They made their way over to the fireplace and Mr. Weasley handed them floopower.
"The burrow!" Fred shouted.
"The burrow!!" George bettered.
"The what now?" Kira asked.
"Burrow" Mr. Weasley grinned, hoping he didn't have to go retrieve her from somewhere.
"The burrow!!!" Kira tried to win.

"And that Kira, she's a sweet heart. I wish I knew where her parents were" Another gentleman sighed.
"I thought they were here?" Mr. Weasley stated.
"Hmm? Oh, so you don't know. Kira is adopted"
"What?" Mr. Weasley asked.
"Yeah, her parents just abandoned her. The people caring for her now are trying to find her a home, but they aren't in any hurry to be rid of her"
They talked for a while, about the quidditch teams, someone who was trying to create a new school, and just 'normal' guy stuff. After an hour, a very triumphant group of three kids walked into the room. A few seconds later three more kids leapt into the room, doing their best to make a grand entrance.
"Awww, the losers return triumphantly" Mr. Weasley smiled.
"Well, yeah. We thought you'd have gotten mad if we had ambushed the other team, so when we saw 'em go near the club house we made a run for the door" George explained.
Kira collapsed onto the floor and sat against the wall, they'd been running the entire hour. Fred wasn't looking to alert either, he was carrying the bag. George looked like he was ready to sit for a while.
"You all look ready for ice cream" The man in charge of the activity said, handing the winners their prizes, which turned out to be chocolate frogs. "They'll have it for you in the restaurant"
"Yay!" Fred and George cheered simultaneously.
"Come on lets go, lets go!" Fred urged, pulling his father's sleeve towards the door.
George grabbed Kira and they headed out to the hotel. Kira trotted along behind George, really tired. Once again, the raced down the stairs (Climbing up them just to race) and once again, one of the twins won, but Kira made a soft landing on her feet. George ended up crying for a little bit, he scrapped his knee. He was two, so it's understandable. Mr. Weasley announced the end of the racing, much to the annoyance of Fred and George. However, Trinidy couldn't have been happier about it. They jumped through the double doors and Kira led the way to the restaurant.
"Good evening Mrs. Kira. Will Ms. Lily be joining you?" Asked a tall man standing at the door to the restaurant.
"No" Kira answered. She turned to the Weasleys. "This is Scott, he's in charge of the restaurant" She explained.
"Pleasure to meet you" Scott greeted. "I assume you are here for ze ice cream"
"Uh hu" Kira nodded.
"Ah, Lady Trinidy, pleasure to serve you again, are we annoying Mr. Ettiks today?" He asked Trinidy. Mr. Ettiks still was unaware that Kira REALLY had befriended a faerie.
"Not today" Trinidy smiled.
"Quick, everyone inside and you get first pick of the ice cream" Scott waved them in, holding the door open.
George and Fred didn't need to be asked a second time, they dashed through the doors faster then you could say abra kadabra. Mr. Weasley and Kira followed. The reached the buffet of ice cream and the twins stood in pure awe.
"T-they have-" Fred started.
"Everything!" George filled in.
"Seems that way" Mr. Weasley smiled.
"I'm sorry, I can't find your names on my guest list" Exclaimed Scott, warning the people inside the restaurant that they had better get their ice cream quick or the other people would beat them to it.
"Is he holding off the other team?" Fred asked.
"Yes" Kira answered, standing on a stool and scooping out ice cream.
"Yay!" George squealed and began decorating his ice cream with toppings.
"Hmm, this ice cream needs a topping" Mr. Weasley stated. "Oh, yes, another flavor....and another....one more... maybe two more"
"Oooh, they have Dragon's scale" Fred whispered and grabbed the scoop for that flavor.
"How exactly does a dragon taste?" Kira asked.
"Are you mad? Just because they call it rocky road, doesn't mean you're eating gravel" Fred nodded, scooping some of the red ice cream into her bowl.
George also took to decorating Kira's bowl. Kira watched and pointed out things she wanted.
"Here's your name! Sorry for the inconvenience, I assure you it'll never happen again" Scott called over to them.
They quickly ran to a table and looked at what marvelous creations would be making them sick later on.
"What's that?" Kira asked, pointing to a blue and red swirled round candy that was onto of Mt. Wipcream.
"Mwahahahahahaha!" George replied, with ice cream on his nose.
"Son? Is your nose cold?" Mr. Weasley asked, smirking.
"That" Fred interrupted. "Is a C.B.C"
"...A what?" Kira asked, climbing Mt. Wipcream with her spoon and air lifting the CBC down to eye level.
"C.B.C. Crystal Ball Candy" Fred explained, eyeing the Bertie Bots jellybean suspiciously.
"Oh" Kira responded, loosing interest in the candy. She liked Wizard candy because it was weird and usually did something.
"No, no. This is cool, watch" George looked to his father. Mr. Weasley smiled and took out his wand, he tapped the C.B.C. Three times, the candy shimmered and the colors swirled around.
"Now, eat it" George instructed.
Kira followed the order and plopped the candy into her mouth. She didn't taste the hard round candy she was expecting. Instead, she tasted a sweet, warm liquid that coated her mouth and seemed to flow into her senses themselves. Kira almost fell out of her chair when a burst of flavor his her and flowed through her. When the sensation ended, Kira hopped out of her chair.
"Where ya goin?" George asked.
"I'm gonna get another one" Kira chirped back.
Fred laughed, then, noticing she was serious, jumped out of his chair. "I want one too"
After the ice cream, Mr. Weasley prompted the idea of washing up and removing all traces of their feast.
"If your mother finds out what I fed you for lunch..." He shook his head.
"... If your worried, there is a smoothie...kind of thing... shop a few blocks from here" Kira stated, not really enjoying the idea of eating a grass shake after the sugary goodness of ice cream. Ah, ice cream.
"Why does a little girl know where the health food store is?" Mr. Weasley asked.
"I go there... a lot... everyday after mommy gets done working" Kira states, eyes forward.
"Eeeewwww!" George gags.
"It's g-... not that bad" Kira shrugs.
"... Not feeling as bad about the ice cream anymore" Mr. Weasley states.
"Hey, lets go play tennis. Is sounds fun... you play it, right? Or lets go play with the fountains, or swim in the pool, or go to the gym, or, or, or!" Fred hyperventilated.
"Come my sugar rushed son, we shall have you run around for a little while, then get you home before the coma sets in" Mr. Weasley laughed.
"Coma? Coma, coma, coma, coma, comacomacomacomacomacomacomacoma!" George repeated.
Mr. Weasley ushered them over to a part of the hotel called 'Golly Grapes Tea-leaf.' Mr. Weasley smiled. He knew that seeing grapes in tealeaves meant 'good times with friends.' It was an indoor, magical, amusement park. Roller coasters flew through the air, with wings instead of a track. The lights were sparks and shimmering fireflies of all different colors. The ceiling was enchanted and looked like clouds, bumper cars flew, the go carts were brooms, the games were catch the toad, which brew?, snag the snitch, there were games for older kids, teenagers, too. The haunted house, a giant game of chess, (no, you weren't a chess piece) the house of headmasters, owl races. There were so many wonderful rides, games, food stands, costume stores, balloon stands, scenery. It was amazing. The three kids ran around for an hour, then one by one, they stopped. Mr. Weasley wouldn't allow them to ride rides, said they'd throw up. Instead, they played games. After they were done. They went over to the health food store. Mr. Weasley asked for four samples. They quickly downed the samples and left.
"That way you can tell your mother I fed you health food" Mr. Weasley explained.
"Nah, she'll never believe it" Fred stated.
"...I..." Kira dropped. "I don't wana walk anymore"
"Can't blame you" George stated, dropping to his knees and leaning his back against the wall.
"Get up you wusses" Fred urged.
"Wusses! We were the ones still going the last twenty minutes!" George snapped.
"Can't argue... to... tired" Kira stated.
"D'you want more sugar?" Trinidy smiled evilly.
"No, no, no" Kira shook her head, for a kid only allowed one cookie a day, she had had an overload.
"...Yes" Mr. Weasley teased and quickly had a shoe thrown at his skull.
"And now, my shoes gone" Kira stated.
"Yeah, gimmi back Kira's shoe!" Fred demanded.
"Trinidy? Where is my shoe?" Kira asked, completely zonked out.
"Did you loose it?" Trinidy laughed.
Kira nodded and George pulled himself to his feet, retrieving the shoe and dropping it infront of Kira.
"There it is" She stated, staring at the shoe. "I came back" She put her shoe on and stood up. Then she stepped out of Fred's reach so he couldn't throw her shoe again.
They made their way over to the fireplace and Mr. Weasley handed them floopower.
"The burrow!" Fred shouted.
"The burrow!!" George bettered.
"The what now?" Kira asked.
"Burrow" Mr. Weasley grinned, hoping he didn't have to go retrieve her from somewhere.
"The burrow!!!" Kira tried to win.

Eve: I heard you raiding my fridge earlier, who's the pig*glaring at Mike*
Sarah: You're weird, anyway this is a warning. Book 5 is out, this story is a fan fiction so whatever the book says, won't follow along with this story. (Psst, there was more to this conversation, but it was really long, we forgot to end it. Eve was um... well the entire conversation wasn't exactly what I think you all should hear, so I, Sarah, am not posting it. Yet we had a cool talk. Thanks TDM. If anyone else would like to be in an O.C.C, simply E-mail Eve and we'll see what time everyone can get on. Oh, and in the end Eve decided to kill Mike for stealing a tenth soda. TDM was cheering for him to kick her cause we need the comic relief. In the end, they were civil because TDM had to go. Mike almost cried!)
TDM: Reviewers, I don't know if Mike will make it to the next chapter. Reviewers Review.
