"Zane… Hey, Zane! Wake up! Hellooooo… Zane…!"

"Let me sleep just three more minutes…," Zane grumbled. He turned his back and began to make a soft snoring sound.

"But… Zane…! Your sleeping bag was… Well… Uh… It was… Infested? Yeah, infested! It was infested with ants! Look! They're coming closer and closer to you…!" Atty said, pointing to Zane's sleeping bag.

"WHAT?!" Zane woke up at lightning-fast speed. "Why didn't you tell me earlier? Gah! They're all over my sleeping bag! There's even some on my clothes!"

"Zane… You won't mind if I…?" Atty asked. He had distanced himself from Zane, in case the ants were bored with Zane and decided to go for him or in case Zane was safe from the ants and know that his sweets has something to do with the condition he's in now, he could run as far enough to avoid the ants.

"Get. Back. Here. Atty." Zane mumbled in a deep, scary tone. "Uh… Okay…," Atty answered. "Now answer me. Why did I find some of your sweets inside my sleeping bag?" Zane asked, his mouth was slowly forming a grin. Atty decided not to look at Zane… Whenever Zane smiles, it's bad for his health. "Well… You see… I…" Atty stopped. C'mon Atty! Think a good lie!! Think! It's your life or your death! "You what? I know you're the reason behind this 'accident' Atty. I know. There's no need to lie." Zane said. Oooh! I know! "Zane, I… ADIOS, Zane!" And so, Atty ran as fast as his feet could.

"Atticus Rhodes, come back here!" Zane said while he began to chase Atty.

"NO WAAAAAAAY!!!" Atty shouted from afar.

"Ooh, you asked for it Atty. Prepare yourself!"

"Gotcha!"

Thump!

"You've got nowhere to run, Atty."

"Yeowch… Hmm… What's that?"

"No use lying Atty. I'm not new to your lies."

"But Zane! I'm serious! Look, there's a well right there!"

"So? What's so wrong with a well?"

"Just look!"

Zane lifted his head. Around one meter from them, there's a well. It looks old with all the moss and crack on it. But, something about the well looks… Intriguing.

"Zane, please… Go away… You're heavy!" Atty protested from below. Zane was on top of him for about ten minutes and he swears if Zane didn't get up in some more minutes, he would say bye- bye to this world. "Oh, sorry, Atty."

"Geez…" Atty just grumbled while he clean himself from the dirt.

" Know what? I think we must go check the well."

"Awrite… Wait a minute please…"

"Wow… This well sure is deep!"

"Yeah… It's like it doesn't have an end."

"But it does have an end."

"Yeah… Huh? Atty, are you the one talking just now?" Zane asked Atty.

"No… I'm busy staring at this well… What's wrong, Zane?" Atty asked when he sees Zane's face was slowly turning pale.

"Then… Who's talking just now?" Zane asked Atty again.

"It's me, humans!" The voice chuckled.

"Who?" Atty asked.

"Me, Barrack Ojama! It's been a while since I last see you two. How're you?" Barrack Ojama suddenly appears in front of Zane and Atty. His moustache and crown as shiny as ever.

"I'm fine, thanks." Was Atty's response.

"YOU!" Was Zane's response.

" Haven't your mom taught you any manner, brown-haired boy? I'm asking how you two are and that's your answer?" Barrack Ojama responded Zane's earlier words.

"I'm sorry Mr. Barrack Ojama… But he's not always like this. He's just taking too much stress this week." Atty apologized. Barrack Ojama smiled. "Now that's the attitude I like! What's your name, kid?" He asked. "Me? I'm Atticus and this is Zane, my best buddy," Atty answered and he gripped Zane's shirt tightly. "What is it?" Zane whispered. "Hurry up and apologize to him. We won't know if he would return us to our real body or not if he was angry." Atty hissed. "Okay."

"Ah, Mr. Barrack Ojama… I'm sorry for what I said earlier." Zane bowed to the ojama.

"Apologize accepted."

"Mr. Barrack Ojama? If you would'nt mind, can I ask you to do something?"

"What's it, Atticus-boy?"

"You see, we're not in our real body right now, so… Would you be so kind to return us to our real body?"

"Oh my! I forgot! Sorry if I'd troubled you two. Anyway, did you enjoy it? The 'body changing' spell was a fun spell. It's my present for you two for rescuing me frim that movie cover. It was disgusting, being stuck at there and all…"

"Ooo yeah, It sure was fun, you…" Atty suddenly covers Zane's mouth with his hand. "Atty, What is it?" Zane stared at Atty. "Ooo Zane, what if we're stuck at this form forever because you said that 'B' word? Where's your usual manner?" Atty replied. "What? Well… Okay… Okay… I'll behave from now on. You do the talking. I'm afraid that I would say it if I talk with him again."

"It was fun Mr. Barrack Ojama! But could we return to our real body? It was fun being in Zane' body and all…" What's so fun being in Zane's body? Geez…"But we would like to return to our real body. After all, the real one's the best."

"Is that so? Okay then… But the two of you must be unconscious when I cast the spell, so…" With that, Barrack Ojama summoned a big morning star and grinned.

"W… What the?" Zane stood still in awe. It's the first time he sees such a big morning star. It would make a good equip spell card…

"Zane, run… RUN!" Atty run while grapping Zane's collar, bringing Zane with him.

"Hey, don't run! Don't you want to return to your real body? I promise! It would be swift and painless!!" Barrack Ojama chased the two of them.
