"I can't believe I have to go shopping for a TA for you," I say with a groan.
After finding that Omega-Xis can turn into a human with the CopyRoid, Dad said that I should get him a TA, in order to help him blend in while we're not fighting.
"Hey, at least the CopyRoid works," Omega-Xis says, sticking his tongue out at me.
I sigh and mutter, "Wish Dad didn't bring it home, it's bad enough we have Aquarius with us. We don't need another EM being-turned-human…"
Omega-Xis tries on a red TA, he says, "I'll stick with this one. It looks good on me."
I nod and say, "Then we should pay for it then. Follow me, Mega."
We walk to the front counter.
"Oh, you found something for your cousin?" the clerk asks, her hair bright green with the tips dyed black.
I nod.
Good thing I have a cover story for Omega-Xis, otherwise we'd be dead…
Omega-Xis hands the woman the TA and she says, "1500 Zennys, please."
"Charge it to Marco Woods' account," I say.
The woman types something into the computer and says, "Password for the account?"
I lower my voice and murmur, "5326-6947."
The woman types in the numbers and says, "Okay! You're done! Come again!"
The woman hands Omega-Xis the TA and he puts it on.
"Thank you!" I say, taking Omega-Xis' hand and dragging him from the store.

After we get home, we go into my room.
Aquarius sits on the floor, reading through some of my books.
"We're back," I say, "Where's Mom and Dad?"
"They went out," Aquarius says, "I think to your school or something like that."
I pale and say, "A-about what?"
Aquarius laughs and says, "Nothing bad. Just telling the principal that your 'cousin' Morgan is going to be at school."
"Whoa, whoa," Omega-Xis says, "You're saying that I'm having to go to school with her?"
"I'm not too happy with the idea either," I say.
"There is something else," Aquarius says, putting down the book and taking out a globe, "Ophiuca's on Earth. She's looking for me right as we speak."
"Does she have a human?" Omega-Xis asks, "Because she won't be able to do anything without a physical body or a human."
"Yes, indeed," Aquarius says, "have you two heard of Lee Furukoni?"
