The girl grinned, sitting down at the table, "Alright, be quiet. Let me continue writing."
"Alright, princess."
"So... can we learn magic?" The triplets asked, excitedly.
He scowled, "No."
"Why not?" River asked, frowning.
Will looked over at them, "Because it's a complex process. Besides, you're eight. Pretty much still babies. So... it will be a few years before you actually can properly use magic."
"We're not babies! You can't baby us!" Cosmo pouted.
Will laughed, "Your pouty face says otherwise."
"Hmp. We're not babies," Cosmo mumbled, his arms against his chest, looking away from Will.
He sighed, "Physically, yes. Mentally? Probably not. You act like babies."
"No... we act like children," Luna corrected.
Will smiled, "Whatever you want to tell yourselves."
"Why does mentality matter?" River asked.
He smiled, "Because you can use magic to play mind tricks... and it's very interesting how they react to it."
"... can you show us a mind trick?" Cosmo asked.
He sighed, snapping his fingers, "I don't see why not. So... sure."
The triplets looked at each other, and then at their surroundings. It was green, and there was a swing set nearby. The three gasped, running towards it.
"I wouldn't touch any of that."
The triplets looked at the shack at the middle of their new surroundings, noticing two triangles. One was yellow, and the other was blue and smaller than the first, and was attempting to hide behind them.
"Why not? Who are you?" Cosmo growled, getting in front of River and Luna.
The blue one sighed, "Calm down Cosmo, it's just us."
"What do you want?" Cosmo scowled, "Why should I believe you? I don't even know who you are!"
The yellow one laughed, "To show you a mind trick, remember? You asked me to."
"... Dad?" Cosmo frowned.
He snickered, "Yes."
"So... who are you, then?" Cosmo asked, turning to Will.
Will looked down, "Nobody."
"We need to get out of here," He spoke up, before vanishing.
The triplets woke up.
"What happened?" River frowned.
Luna sighed, "I don't know."
"I don't exactly know either..." Cosmo admitted to his sisters.
A nurse, with green and yellow dyed hair and hazel eyes, smiled, "You've been asleep for a while. You're lucky that you've escaped with your lives."
"What?" River asked, confused, "What are you talking about? We were just talking with our dad, and..."
The nurse sighed, "There was an explosion. You're the only ones who made it out alive."
"No... you're lying! That's not possible!" Cosmo shouted.
Monika walked into the room, her long brown hair in a ponytail with a blue ribbon, and her emerald colored eyes noticed their blue eyes, "It's possible. Don't worry." She took out a keyboard, that wasn't connected to anything, "De-" "- don't. Monika. Don't." The black haired boy growled, grabbing her hand, when she was mere moments from pressing the delete button, "We can deal with them in a different way."
Monika sighed, looking over at the "nurse", before looking back at the boy, "Fine. I'll play you and Kitty's game, Connor." She dropped the keyboard, making it vanish.
The triplets were surprised, "Wha..."
"Alright you three, you should keep your mouth shut. Don't worry, we know everyone in your family." Kitty grinned, before sighing, "and... if you must know, I'm Kitty, and this is Monika and Connor."
