A Comfort For Lisa

Desiree Biggins came into the lounge with Simon Atherton by her side.

"Hot chocolate and chocolate fondue are on the table," Desiree called. "come and get it!"

"Alright! Hot chocolate!" Murray Richards exclaimed.

Murray and the others raced off to the kitchen, when K.C. stopped and turned to face Simon and Kristi.

"Aren't the two of you coming?" K.C. asked Kristi and Simon.

"You go on ahead, K.C." Kristi said.

"That's right," Simon told K.C. in agreement with Kristi. "Kristi and I have to help Mrs. Reg comfort Lisa."

"Okay, and don't worry," K.C. told Simon and Kristi. "I'll save all of you some chocolate fondue and some hot chocolate."

Lisa turned to K.C, "Thanks a million." she said.

"Don't mention it," K.C. said to Lisa kindly. "and once you finish your hot chocolate and chocolate fondue... I am going to teach you how to duel... Yu-Gi-Oh style!"

"That sounds like a whole lot of fun!" Lisa agreed.

Once K.C. was out of earshot, Simon, Kristi, and Elizabeth all turned to Lisa.

"Don't worry, Lisa," Elizabeth said. "your mother said that it was okay for both you and Melanie to stay over until the storm passes."

"That's right, Simon and I heard Mrs. Reg on the phone before the storm even hit." Kristi revealed to Lisa.

"You two were eavesdropping on Mrs. Reg's phone call with my mom," Lisa asked Kristi and Simon. "how low could you guys possibly sink?"

"Calm down, Lisa." Simon said gently.

"We only want to help you out." Kristi added.

"I'm sure they didn't mean to eavesdrop, Lisa," Elizabeth said. "right, Simon, right, Kristi?"

"Right, Mrs. Reg." Kristi and Simon said.

Lisa checked her watch, "Oh no! I have to meet up with K.C. for a dueling lesson!" she exclaimed.

After having her dessert, Lisa was beginning her first ever lesson in the game of Duel Monsters from K.C.

Lisa was a quick study, "Now, I bring your life points down to the big zero! I'm attacking you directly with Dark Magician's dark magic attack!" she said to K.C.

K.C. shook off the devastation of her loss to Lisa.

"Well! Now," K.C. exclaimed. "it would appear that the pupil has become the master!"

"Am I really that good, K.C?" Lisa asked in surprise.

"Of course you are," K.C. told Lisa honestly. "I'm proud of you."

Carole came into the kitchen.

"Everyone else is going to bed now," Carole told Lisa and K.C. firmly. "so, we should all follow suit."
