"okay now that that is done ." Evan said looking around, "We need use your spot and observe to gather everything cool in this room. "
Tom used his Telekinesis to make an object fly to him he put it in his Inventory.
"I never thought to train it that way!" Evan cried. "Well, I'll do it from now on!"
Tom laughed. Pouting Evan was really cute too. The two trained that power learning a Psi Shield as they leveled it up. Evan took great joy in telling Tom that it would come in handy for upcoming battles. They then set off to explore the house and do quests or would have had Tom not noticed he'd leveled up.
"You should get understanding."Evan told him looking at Tom's screen. "It's a great power to have. Though Baby Love does sound cool. I also have Are You Looking at me and Accidental? NOT! Both are great. Baby Love does have it's uses but I brushed it off. Sirius clone trains Charisma just fine on his own. "
Tom chuckled at that.
"I'll pick Are you Looking at me? that way I might learn some magic. " Tom said more to himself. "Then I'll get Accidental? Not! then Understanding. "
"That's what i did." Evan told him. "Oh Shit, HIDE!"
Tom's ability unlocked and they both hid. Lily came into the room with Sirius Clone and Silver Clone.
"Oh you poor boy." Lily was cooing over Silver Clone. "My little Evan has some nice boys clothes I can put you in but first a bath! you'll never be hungry again! Oh, no! You're going to live with us now!"
Evan focused on Sirius Clone.
"I don't mind sharing my room with Tom, Mama." he made Sirius clone say. "Tom's really nice and my best friend!"
Lily smiled at her son and kissed his head.
"Thank you, Evan. " she said, she flicked her wand and the bath began filling. "Why don't you play while I give Tom his bath."
"Okay, " Sirius said , brightly. "Don't be scared, Tom, my mama wont hurt you at all. "
Silver Clone went with Lily into the bathroom shutting the door.
Sneak! Tom jolted as he learned it. Evan was Sneaking and pulling him along so he began Sneaking as well though he made noise. They quickly got out of the room and ran into the library.
"That was close." Evan sighed. "If Sirius Clone hadn't warned me we would have gotten caught. "
"According to this we couldn't have gotten caught." Tom had an information screen in front of him. Evan leaned over to read it. "It says since we don't have Clone Title Cards . With those we could show our clones to other people and they could see us. "
"Oh, I almost forgot. " Evan hit his palm to his head. "Praise your clones!"
Tom blinked but thought of his clones. They were doing well so he praised them and was told he got another clone. He summoned it and it got a crimson scarf.
"Crimson clone, "Tom ordered. "Stay in here and work on Wisdom and Intelligence. "
The clone began reading which unlocked Reading.
"Yeah, and if you praise them a whole lot you can win more clones. " Evan told him . "It's how I got my two new clones. "
"Great this could really come in handy at school." Tom said thinking. "We can leave our clones in class and go explore."
"Right." Evan cheered, "I thought of that too! I also thought that when we get to Hogwarts we can take every class because our clones would be able to go and we'd be able to do whatever we wanted."
"That's brilliant. " Tom beamed. "Now what shall we do?"
"Well, lets quest and loot around here." Evan shrugged. "It's a good as place as any."
Tom nodded in agreement.
They found a quest that had them solve puzzles.
"I don't remember this." Evan said, as they accepted and got down on the floor to put the four piece puzzle together. The puzzle became a bit harder. "Oh, this'll train our Wisdom for sure."
Skill unlocked!
Problem Solving! You can find solutions to just about any problem and every problem once maxed out!
"Oh, I like that." Tom said, as they worked. "I wonder how far this puzzle will take us?"
"I don't know and I don't care!" Evan cheered. "This is the best ability ever! No need for Hermione anymore!"
"Wasn't she one of your best friends?" Tom wondered as they worked.
"Yeah, but as I grew up I learned that I didn't actually like them and they were really annoying. " Evan sighed, he didn't even look up. " Sirius says, that Papa and Mr. Malfoy are heading this way. You're sure they wont be able to see us or your clone."
"Positive. " Tom said, the puzzle was now 20 pieces.
Severus and Lucius came in.
"What do you want , Lucius?" Severus sighed, "It's my son birthday and I would like to be out there watching him. "
"I wish to set up a contract between Evan and Draco." Lucius replied looking around the Library. "Draco has declared that he will marry Evan when he grows up and I want to give my son what he wants."
Tom and Evan paused in their task they weren't be timed so it was okay. Both looked at the men. Evan put his hands to his head. Telepathy!
He sighed when he heard that Severus wasn't going to agree.
"No, Lucius." Severus growled. "Evan will marry who he chooses to marry. I will not set up a contract !"
"Now see reason." Lucius scoffed. "Evan will gain amazing perks from marrying Draco. He will become apart of the Malfoy family and..."
"He is the Heir of the Prince family!" Severus barked, loudly. "The Prince's are more Ancient and Noble than the Malfoys! It is Evan's decision!" Severus was shaking in rage. "He is only 5 years old!"
"I was contracted to Narcissa the day she was born. " Lucius replied, "Then I can take this as if Black and Potter approach you with the same request you will turn them down as well?"
"Of course I will!" Severus yelled, "It's Evan's decision! No one elses!"
The two men left and Evan let out a sigh of relief.
"I think Severus just gain some respect from me." Tom sneered. "and Lucius needs a beat down. "
"I agree."
"You know in my last game I could kill people and they would respawn if they were not meant to die." Tom watched Evan think. "I could get a lot of rewards from it as well. We'll test it out on Muggles later how about that?"
"Agreed." Evan said, "Game screen Help!"
A screen appeared.
"Do we become invisible to everyone once we use our clones?"
Do to the last upgrade that took place in the span of you aging yes.
"Perfect."
Unless you go into the Muggle world or another wizarding area then you would have to summon another clone .
"That's reasonable." Evan nodded. "It also explains a lot. "
They got back to their puzzles.
It took them up to 50000 puzzle pieces before the quest was complete.
"A second quest. " Tom said, " Timed Puzzle Solver. Rewards: +2 Wisdom. Random Title Card. "
"Lets do it!" Evan said, pulling on Tom's arm. "Oh , please."
"Fine with me." he smiled at Evan who blushed but smiled. "Quest accept."
"Quest Accept!"
They quickly began putting the puzzles together. Their problem Solving ability was leveling up slowly. It was going to be a hard ability to grind. Evan could already tell that. He also found that he and Tom worked very well together. They talked and got to know each other more as they worked. Their hands were steadily becoming blurs as they worked faster and faster to put the puzzles together.
Severus , James, Lucius, Sirius and several other Pure Bloods or influential people who were at the party re entered the Library.
"If this is about contracts with your children the answer is no." Severus snipped.
"No." Sirius said, " We want to make it so Hogwarts catches up to schools outside the U.K. To do so we'll have to force Albus' hand. We're all on board but we could use the Prince seat to do so."
"Lily and I are in." Severus agreed. "Though I think she'll be upset of saying bye to Evan and Tom this early. "
"Are you going to adopt the boy?" James asked, "I was thinking of doing it. Give Jr a brother. It's just him and me."
"I was going to seek guardianship for now." Severus replied, "But if you wish to adopt him you'll have to ask the boy. "
James laughed.
"You give 5 year olds too many decisions. " Lucius sneered.
" It helps them think better." Severus countered. "and teaches them to be independent. While I have you here I wish to speak on the School Rivalry. My son is a sensitive child who will most likely end up in Slytherin or Ravenclaw. I do want him exposed to House Rivalry. None of our children should be exposed to that. It's what started the last war."
The adults talked on while Tom and Evan worked and listened. They were silent so that they could hear everything that was said. Finally, they completed the quest. It told them they could do it like a combat quest until they wouldn't get Xp for it anymore.
"Title card!" Evan cheered then looked to see that no one had heard him. "What is it? "
You have earned the Title: Baby Alchemist! Show your Alchemy abilities to everyone!
"Cool." Evan said, "Game how many Title cards can I equip?"
One but you will keep the effects of the other cards and gain XP for them using the skill even if they are not your active Title. Some quests may require you to equip Title.
"Cool, it unlocked my Alchemy ability." Tom said.
"I already unlocked mine." Evan informed him. "Is the reward the same?"
"Yep."
"Lets grind it until we cant anymore."
"Agreed."
The adults left at some point but they were too busy to care or notice they were working on maxing out Wisdom and gaining Titles. Evan kept summoning his pets to train his Summoning Title. Tom kept doing it to train the Power.
"MY BRAIN HURTS!" Evan cried falling back. He held his latest Title Card above his eyes. "
Title Baby Flier! You can now fly first on broom then on your own!
"We can't get title cards anymore." Tom said checking the quest. They'd done it four additional times this had been their sixth attempt they were getting faster and the puzzles harder. "The quest has changed. "
"How so?"
"Non timed 3D puzzle quest." He read, "Rewards: +10 Problem Solving. +2 Wisdom. Random drop."
"Oh, I've seen those before!" Evan said , sitting up . "They were real popular for awhile in the Muggle world but then quit being popular and all but vanished.(Bring back my 3D puzzles!) They're supposed to be very challenging. You could make monuments like Big Ben, the Leaning Tower of Pisa, The Eiffel Tower, stuff like that! They had a lot of pieces and were really hard. I always wanted to try them but never got a chance. Oh, please! Please!"
"You don't have to beg." Tom chuckled, "If you want to put the puzzles together we will for however long you want. "
"You're so nice." Evan beamed accepting the quest. "Lets do it!"
They of course found out why it was in the Problem Solving quest. It was hard! Really , Really hard! Two normal five year olds wouldn't have been able to do it. They doubted many adults could have done it either. But they kept working it was really training their Problem Solving ability though they'd yet to get it to Level 1
"This ability needs to Level up so that this is easier !" Tom complained.
Problem Solving Level up! Level 1!
"Thank you!" he thanked the game and took less than a second to praise his clones. He was getting used to being nice it was foreign to him but he would keep doing it for Evan's sake besides he wanted more clones. Evan he knew was doing the same. "Okay, I can think a little more clearly. "
"So can I." Evan said, they were still on the first puzzle. Tom had unlocked Telling time when he'd looked at the clock. They both kept looking though Evan knew that time wasn't going to change. "This one goes here like this and this one over here like this."
"Yes, yes. " Tom nodded, "I get it now, these to go together to start forming the base. "
"These go to the base too!"
They made slow and steady progress reaching level two as they finished the first puzzle. Three puzzles later they reached level 5
You've Reached Problem Solving 5!
You can now see patterns in things where other people cant!
"Oh, Hermione could do something like that!" Evan said, "Her Intelligence and Wisdom Stats must have been really high but her Problem Solving low."
"Could she have been a player?"
"I don't know." Evan replied, thinking about it. "Maybe. I know where she lives so we can go check it out. "
"Alright. " Tom nodded, "Maybe get her to join our Team if she is."
"Game: Can we get non players to join our game?"
Yes but be warned that that will make them players .
"That's cool." Evan suddenly jolted as the next puzzle spawned. "I can already tell I'm going to like this Patterns ability." He was already grabbing things and putting them together as was Tom. " Oh, yes indeed."
They kept working and eventually passed they then did timed. When the puzzles were over they went to look for something else to do.
