Annaka

After awhile, Lily still isn't here.

The rest of us are hanging out in the living room of Sans and Papyrus's house-but only with Sans, for Papyrus said he had something to do-while something starring Mettaton plays on TV.

Suddenly, the front door opens and our attention turns to the front door.

Lily walks in with an unreadable, very mixed expression on her face as a light blush is spread across her cheeks.

She shuts the door and collapses onto the ground, taking her glasses off while rubbing her eyes.

"Um...you ok Lily...?" I ask.

Lily nods weakly. "Y-yeah...I guess so...just we should probably be going back by now."

"Then let's get a move on people!" Kealani demands.

She is already making a portal with her spear and soon enough the light blue portal appears.

Everyone else makes their own portals to go back to their houses.

We bid our goodbye's to Sans and each other, then each step into our own portal.

.

The whole class enters the classroom and takes their seats.

I sit next to Kennedy-as usual-as I start to get out everything I need, until overhearing a conversation.

"Oh my gosh, did you see those people that came to our school on the news?!"

"Yeah! And more of them! Who are they?"

"I dunno! What if they're someone we know?!"

"Haha! Doubt it! No one really looks like those girls do."

My eyes widen.

The news?! I'm sorry, we were on the NEWS?!

I shake Kennedy's arm as she tries to unpack her stuff.

She yawns. "Yea?"

Obviously she didn't get the best of sleep.

I am about to tell her about the conversation but the teacher starts to talk.

"Tell you a recess," I whisper.

.

After a long morning, the teacher finally dismisses us.

I grab a snack, as does most of my other friends, and we all walk out and meet Juliana, Nya, and Mimi at the benches.

We all sit together, away from everyone else.

After settling everyone down, I tell them about the conversation I heard.

"The news?!" Elizabeth exclaims. Then quickly smiles and stares out into space dreamily. "I hope they got some good action shots of me. And my good side." Then she scoffs. "Who am I kidding? Every side is my good side."

I sigh. "Not the point. The point is we're exposed to numerous amounts of people now. We're more famous. Therefore, more suspicions will be formed and someone may find out about us. Then what? Everyone's gonna be interested. I mean, we're barely even human anymore!"

I sigh at the last part.

"No one is going to figure out,"Juliana reassures.

"And if they do, I'll beat them up!" Kealani adds.

"Actually, there's a very high probability that someone could figure out in various ways such as-" Lily is cut off by Alyssa.

"Look! Jonathan!"

Lily gasps. "Where?! How do I look?!" Then, realizing what she said, her face glows red. "I mean...uh..."

I sigh again. "Anyways, back to the topic. After school let's meet in front of the school to find that show about us."

As everyone agrees, the bell rings and we all walk back to our classes together.

.

As the bell rang, signaling us to go home, I walked with some of my friends out of the school and met the other ones up.

Kennedy was already on it with looking up the video and found it in less than a minute.

She played it and we all watched.

There was a man and woman reporter, both sitting.

"Now, to go on about the recent attacks from unknown creatures and the new saviors on the rise," the woman says.

"Yes, these creatures have been identified at 'monsters' and there actually has been footage caught of these saviors battling," the man says. "How about we take a look?"

And suddenly, the screen is filled with a video of all of us-except Doug-when we were fighting on that hike and some familiar voices could be heard.

"Are you getting this on video?" Sounds like Natalie.

"Yep, every second!" Sounds like...Kylie!

I am relieved as the video ends, thankful it didn't show me and Kennedy falling off the ledge.

"And there we have it, seems like some kind of magic against magic," the man says.

"We will try to get more information on these unknown saviors as more news unravels! Coming up next, Rida with the weather!" the woman concludes.

Kennedy stops the video and we all look at each other in silence.

"So Kylie took the video, I presume?" I say.

"Yep, I did!"

We all jump, but then realize it's only Kylie there.

"They were recently talking about those 'saviors' on the news and wishing they add some footage or pictures or something, so the most recent time they came, I whipped out my phone, took a video, and sent it to them and they were ecstatic," Kylie explains. "They asked me to be on the news to come explain how it was, what they were like, etc., etc., but I declined."

Elizabeth gasps suddenly at this and grabs Kylie's shoulders. "How could you ever do such a thing?! Just imagine!" She puts her arm around Kylie's shoulders and stares dreamily at the sky. "You could've been a star, a person who actually caught footage of these 'saviors' and had encounters up close." Then she puts her hands on her shoulders again and begins to shake her. "How could you do such a thing?! How?!"

Alyssa pulls Elizabeth off of Kylie as she looks a bit dazed.

"W-well...the news is too um...how to put this...? Nerve wracking for me because...you know it's live and if you mess up then you can never undo it...it's just..." Kylie's words falter, but then she smiles. "Anyways, whatever. It doesn't really matter anyways. I'll catch you guys later, I guess."

Kylie then struts off.

Elizabeth scoffs. "Nerve wracking. Ha, try being a 'savior' for the world."
