A day after getting back from Los Angeles, Azura was walking down the corridor looking exhausted after having dealt with the Beeper. Right now, she was being recapped on things by Neil.

"So, just to recap on things…"

"Wait, why are you recapping things to me?" Azura asked. "I could ask Mildred."

"Let him." Mildred said as she walked away with a grade B paper. "I'm just gonna flaunt my B around."

"How did you get a B?" Azura asked with confusion. "Wait, remind me what classes you're taking."

"All of them." Mildred replied. "Or am I?" She pointed to an open door which had another her taking the oracle class.

The oracle teacher, who happened to be Eyris, was trying wake up a sleeping Mildred by an active orb. "Mmmm! Mmmm! Mmmm!"

"Five more minutes." The other Mildred said in her sleep.

Azura and Neil looked shocked about this that they turned to the other Mildred. "Am I the real Mildred or not?" She disappeared by walking through a locked that swallowed her whole. "Oh shoot, wrong locker."

Azura and Neil continued walking. "Why can't Hecate explain what happened while I was gone?"

Then, Hecate suddenly showed up behind her like some kind of ninja. "Oh, I like listening to Neil. His speaking pattern's so weird you just like listening to it."

"Yeah, he does have an interesting voice." Azura remarked.

"Okay, I shall begin the recap." Neil inhaled through his nose. "So, Mr Porter and Mr Tholomue are still doing a terrible job at hiding their relationship, Hecate has been going to therapy-"

Hecate turned red in the face. "Don't tell them that!"

"Alistair has found out he is allergic to human nuts, Mrs Park wants to have another baby, Mr Park isn't sure due to-"

"You don't need to tell us about everything." Hecate interjected. "Just tell her about…I don't know, more important."

"Oh, right." Neil inhaled. "Your Mom and brother have fixed things, Rentley has been training with Mrs Park in Flyer Derby and is now considering to quit Grudgeby, also he's having conflicting feelings for his Province boyfriend and the Grimwalker/witch, Evelyn; Boscha has realised she is an absolutely terrible mother; Evelyn's got her Palisman and he is called Anthony; Plus, Evelyn is dealing with her own feelings for Rentley right now."

Hecate nudged Azura in the shoulder. "Oh, how's your Palisman going?"

Azura pulled out her dog Palisman from her satchel and sighed. "Nothing." She focused on her wooden creation and sighed. "Maybe I should just, not get low grades ever again." But once again, nothing happened.

It took a short time for Neil to get what was going on. "Ooooh yes, you got an F."

"Ouch, that sucks." Hecate remarked.

Then, coming towards Azura was none other than Clarence and a witch with red and green hair and Caucasian skin.

"Hey, Azura!" Clarence said.

"Hey Clarence, hi Ro." Azura said.

Ro gave Azura an enthusiastic wave. "Hi, Azura."

"Sooooo, listen I'm sorry that you failed your beastkeeping test." He said.

"It's fine." Azura said. "Don't need your pity."

"Hey Clarence, what's up?" Hecate asked. "Are you here to ask Azura something important?"

"A proposal?" Neil reacted in surprise.

"No. Listen Azura, my offer to coming to that new bar, Alleviate is still up." Clarence said.

"Alleviate?" Azura asked. "Isn't that a sub franchise of Jill's Sandwiches?"

"No that's Elevate." Neil said. "Though, the name doesn't have anything to do with sandwiches. It could confuse sandwich enthusiasts and bring about flying enthusiasts. Or the Human Realm contraption known as elevators."

"Now who would have an enthusiastic obsession with elevators?" Azura asked. "Speaking of, Hecate, could you remind me to get that book on human contraptions from the library? Manny wants to edit the inaccurate representation on elevators."

"Sure." Hecate said.

"Look Clarence, as much as I want to…"

"She will!" Hecate interjected by smashing her hand on her mouth. "She will go out and hang out with you, your partner and your sister."

Azura laughed nervously. "Excuse me…" She grabbed Hecate by her shoulders and moved her to a position where Clarence and his group wouldn't hear a thing. "…Hecate, what are you doing?!"

"What?" Hecate asked.

"I don't want to go out with Clarence!" Azura said.

"You told me you had trust issues when it comes to making friends." Hecate said.

"But I got you as a friend!" Azura argued.

"Remember, you said you trusted me." Hecate said. "So why not Clarence?"

"I…I….I….I…..I….I…I…" Azura shrugged her shoulders. "….He's a fan of my Mami!"

"So?" Hecate asked. "Just because it happened with Jakob doesn't mean it will happen again. And besides, how bad was it?"

Azura's eye twitched as she flash backed to when she was friends with Jakob. "I….I….I…"

Five Jakob stood over a five year old Azura while a fire raged on behind him and she was laying on the floor. "Why won't you let me meet your Mami?! Why?! I thought we were friends!"

"We…We…We…We are!" Azura cried.

"Then, you must suffer!" Jakob summoned an Abomination shard and tried to stab her.

Azura snapped out of her flashback and giggled nervously. "He just tried to drown me a sandbox."

"Oooh, that's bad." Hecate said. "Look, just do this for me, okay?"

"I don't know." Azura said, unsure.

"Look, just take an everlasting oath with me." Hecate said as she drew a spell circle and put her hand through. "If it makes you comfortable, I will be sitting by one of the booths watching close by."

"Why would I put my hand through much pain if I don't go?" Azura asked.

"No, it's for me." Hecate said. "You can go if you want. But please, if this doesn't go well then I won't let you down then I will let myself down as it will be my fault. And I will go through the pain."

"No! Don't do that!" Azura said. "All you had to say was I'll watch close by and I'll go!"

Hecate froze with embarrassment. "Oh. Right. Sorry. Sooo…"

Azura sighed and walked up to Clarence. "Okay, I'll come. Though I feel like I could be doing something important, I'll still come."

Clarence smiled. "Great! I'll tell ya Azura, you'll love it! They will be bards, great drinks, great food and some great pals to chat with. Heck, some of your friends are coming tonight as well!"

Azura nervously chucked. "Sure, sounds nice. I mean, what could go wrong?" There was some awkward silence as Azura worried for what might happen later tonight.

Neil broke the silence. "That could mean things will happen tonight."
