A/N Important- In response to the reviews about the lunch scene the kids only think those things because they heard their parents make accusations about the whole thing and they're all before that rebellious teen age were they disagree with them.
Ch 29 Guests of the Order
~At the shop~
LS had just stepped out for a few minutes while Jake as at school only to come back and find two figures sitting on the couch in his shop.
He couldn't see their faces do to wearing hoods up but their apparel gave them away.
They both wore green cloaks with a gold symbol on the back. It was a circle around a triangle with the all Seeing Eye inside. They were members of the Ulrich Prophecy Order.
"Hello Loa Shi" said a female voice coming from the member on the right.
"News is you wanted to speak with the order" said a male voice from the member on the left.
"Of course I do," Loa answered "did you know what's happened?"
"Of course we do" the female said.
"It was part of the prophecy" the male said.
"So you knew what was going to happen" Loa yelled.
"Sorry for you're loss but we can't tamper with the prophecy" the female said.
"We may only watch" the male said.
Loa was filling with anger but stood still not sure how to release it.
"There had to be tragedy" the female said.
"The event is to help with his decisions" the male said.
"What do the decisions of an eight year old deserve this" Loa yelled letting out only half his anger.
"He's eight now he's going to get older and…" the female was saying then stopped. "I can't say anything more it would be part the prophecy."
"The boy has a destiny and he can make the right choice or the wrong choice that decides how it ends" the male explained. "You just have to live with the fact."
With that they both got up and left.
"You think having the crimson vision will really help to make the right choice" the female asked once they were out the door where LS could no longer hear them.
"It doesn't hurt" the male said.
"He was born with the power the rest of the family's chi only causes a struggle" the female said.
"Some people need a struggle in life" the male said.
"A purpose doesn't make watching any prophecy easier" the female said as they continued to walk.
They had only left five minutes before Jake had returned from school.
LS hadn't realized what time it was till he heard the ring of the front door opening. LS looked down at his watch then looked into the front to see Jake, Trixie, and Spud. LS was going to pick Jake up at school but apparently he was taking to long for Jake and he had his friends help him home.
Normally you should be mad at the child for not doing as you said but the fact that he didn't wait for him was a sign he was starting to act like your average child. LS was going to let it slide just happy Jake felt safe with his friends or at least enough to make his way home.
"Yo gramps, you were late so we'd figure to bring Jake back on our own" Trixie explained at seeing Loa coming out from the back.
Loa wasn't much for the slang of any generation then his own but what could he do.
"Thank you, I had some visitors and just lost track of time" Loa said thinking about his unwanted guests. Then Loa got and idea. "Would you two be willing to accompany Jake home from school from now on," Loa asked.
"I'd have to ask my mom" Spud said.
"Well ask them tonight and you can tell me tomorrow" Loa said.
With that said Trixie and Spud were leaving.
"See you tomorrow Jakey" Trixie said waving to him as she headed out the door.
"Yeah, unless…" Spud started but Trixie pulled him out the door before he could finish the sentence and jinx it with a what if.
The rest of the day went as any normal day except for three boys planning something in a house many blocks from Canal Street.
"This is going to be great" Brad said as he looks at the items brought by his two friends.
"I know, makes you wish you had a recorder to catch it all" one of this friends said.
"Just be careful with the stuff my dad doesn't know I grab them from the store" the third friend warned.
"He's not going to miss them till next Halloween" the second friend answered.
"Just remember the plan" Brad reminded as he stuffed the items into a gym bag. "I bet ya Long will scream like a girl and faint" Brad laughed.
