Chapter seven The surprise visit
On Sunday Stark, Aphrodite, Darius and I went to the airport in our new SVU that Darius bought only last week. We got to the airport at 2:50pm with 10minutes to wait for Sgiach and Seoras to land. At exactly 3:00pm Sgiach landed her plain and got off, Seoras was carrying two bags, his and hers. "Hi Sgiach, how was the flight?" "Oh it was alright Zoey, thank you for picking us up" "oh, it was fine, shall we go?" "Yes ok" "please follow us." When we got back to the Depot we showed Sgiach and Seoras around the depot and the tunnels, and we showed them to their own tunnel and told them that we would meet them in the lounge room in twenty minutes. Once everyone was gathered in the lounge room we told Sgiach and Seoras about what had happened with Neferet, and how we ended up in the tunnels as our home and the depot above us as our school. "Wow, Zoey, I'm sorry I didn't call and ask if you were alright sooner, I only just found out that you had moved away and that you were starting your own school, if you need any help please don't be scared to ask us." "It's ok Sgiach, you didn't know and it's not your fault and we might take you up on that offer of helping us." "Ok, I understand and by the tone of your voice you have an idea." "Yes I do, Aphrodite had an idea, that maybe you and Seoras could help train us and our human cooks how to defend ourselves against Neferet." "It would be our pleasure don't you agree Seoras?" "Yes I do Sgiach." "Okay well if you are ready Zoey we could start today." "Ok, yes I'm ready, Aphrodite could you please go and get all the cooks and bring them to the gym please, thanks." "Yes I can do that, I will meet you there in ten minutes."
Half an hour later we were all in our rooms relaxing from the long defence training that Sgiach and Seoras just put us through. "Hey Stark?" "Yes Zoey?" "Can you please go and get us some dinner, I don't feel like eating with everyone else." "Ok, I'll also tell Stevie Rae that we will see everybody else tomorrow at breakfast." Ten minutes later Stark was back carrying two plates piled high with yummy smelling food, it was chicken pasta. After dinner Stark and Zoey sat around and talked until we fell asleep. The next morning, Monday at 6:00 Zoey and stark were up and in the kitchen with the others, getting breakfast. "So Zoey where do you want us today?" Sgiach asked. "Well I was thinking that Stevie Rae and I could combine our Blood lust & imprinting classes together and we could have you and Seoras guest speaking, and then in the afternoon You and Seoras could help out in Stark and Darius's class, does that work for everyone?" "That is fine with myself and Seoras, we would love to see how your school works differently from the other House of Nights." "Yes Zoey that is fine, Stark and I might steal your idea and combine our classes together instead of splitting up today." "Ok, well I will see everyone at lunch, or if you need me I should be in my office." Classes went like they normally did, with a little change of lesson plans, the Red and Blue Blood lust & imprinting students got along well enough, and they really enjoyed the speech that Sgiach gave about bonding by drinking blood and she also gave a new perspective on drinking blood during sex. Stark and Darius's class was much the same as the Blood lust & imprinting, without any incidents between the Red and Blue students and by the sounds that were coming from the gym, all the students were really enjoying the games and exercises and training that Sgiach and Seoras, along with Stark and Darius were putting them through. The rest of the week went much like Monday, and by the time Sunday rolled around everybody was sore and tired but they were also sad to see Sgiach and Seoras leave. Stark, Aphrodite, Darius and I drove Sgiach and Seoras to the airport and watched as they boarded their privet jet and set flight. After their plain was out of sight we got back into the car and went back home. Once I was in the staff room I used the loud speaker to call an immediate staff meeting. Once everyone was there I began, "Thanks everyone for coming, I know it was short notice but I had something important that I thought we should discuss. I was thinking about Nyx and her temple and how we don't have one, what do you think we should do?" "Hey Zoey?" "Yes Aphrodite?" "Well I was just thinking about this and I thought maybe we could turn one of the tunnels and one of the empty class rooms into a temple for Nyx and we could ask Sister Mary Angela for some little statues of marry because she is the Catholic version of Nyx reincarnate." "I think that is a good idea but I think we should just choose one place for the temple, either the tunnels or one of the unused classrooms." "Prissiest, I think we should use one of the big tunnels as a temple as it would be easier for everyone as after class we all come down here and it wouldn't take as long to clean." "Darius how many times do I have to tell you call me Zoey, and yes I agree with you, yes Stevie Rae?" "Well I had a thought and you know how we had Elizabeth No Last Name decorating the tunnels well I thought maybe we could get her to decorate the temple and go with Stark or Darius and buy things for the temple." "I like your idea Bumpkin, but I'm going with Elizabeth No Last Name to buy stuff for the temple." "Okay Aphrodite that's fine with me and good thinking Stevie Rae." "Now does anybody have anything else that we need to discuss?" "Yes, I do" Aphrodite said. "Jordan spoke to me and mentioned that the cooks need to go food shopping so I was thinking that they could come with Elizabeth No Last Name and myself and Darius and Stark and we could do all the shopping then" "yes that's fine , I'll right up a list of things that we might want, I will speak to Elizabeth No Last Name after lunch about going shopping and getting her help, Aphrodite can you please come with me to speak to her and then we can both go and speak to Jordan about when we can go shopping. Stevie Rae I didn't ask you because you to come with us because you need to catch up with Rephram and you need to help Shaunee understand the homework that Rephram has to do, I hope you all understand." "Yes we do its ok, now let's go to lunch, I'm starving."
