Boo was taught that people had faults. He knew that. He had 'em too. I mean... no one is perfect! But no one, and I mean NO ONE could have a fault in flying like Sheela had.

Boo and Sheela had managed to hit 3 birds, just managed to swerve around a tree, almost crashed into a billboard, and of course, was still trying to find another tile.

SHEELA IS GOING TO KILL ME AT THIS RATE! HOW IS ONE THIS HORRID AT FLYING? Granted, it IS Sheela's first time, BUT WE Are LITERALLY STANDING ON A FLYING TILE! I'm gonna die. I'm gonna die. I'm going to die at the age of 15. I can see it now... Mama, I'm probably going to join you soon- OH MY GOD ANOTHER BIRD! Boo thought, as Sheela jerked up and down, swerving multiple flying things.

Boo had had enough.

"SHEELA, PUT ME DOWN! YOU'RE LIKE A DRUNK DRIVER IN THE SKY!" Boo shouted, thrashing in Sheela's grasp.

Sheela had to admit, her flying wasn't graceful. She had no clue how Boo had managed to fly them so smoothly. Maybe it was because her character was blind...but this was the real world! She could see...even if things were a little blurry.

She huffed refusing to give in, "NO! STOP MOVING AROUND! YOU'RE MAKING THIS A LOT WORSE FOR THE BOTH OF US, YOU OVERGROWN BIRD MAN!"

"I'M NOT A BIRD MAN. YOU ALMOST CRASHED US INTO A BILLBOARD! AND I THOUGHT I WAS LEGALLY BLIND! PUT ME DOWN!" Boo screeched, still thrashing around.

Sheela complied at last, nearly breaking Boo's skull as she dove to the ground. She dropped Boo from three feet in the air, making him land on his face. He groaned as he pushed himself up. Glaring at Sheela, he dusted himself off, "You know, if you weren't my friend, I'd be trying to strangle you."

"Whatever. Are we going on foot then?" Sheela replied, fuming.

"Obviously. No way am I doing that again. Go check your Jumanji stats in the meantime." Boo said, sarcastically.

Sheela scoffed, "You're mean."

"I can see how you and Niki are twins now," Boo grumbled. Sheela just stuck her tongue out at him. Then she patted her chest playfully. Of course she wasn't expecting anything to happen, but when has anything gone as expected for them?

"Sheela, I was just kidding... Oh my god," Boo said, staring at Sheela.

Sheela looked around worriedly, "What happened?"

"Um... do you not see it?" Boo asked, confused. "Because I don't even have contacts now, and I see it."

"Boo, I'd rather know sometime before Disney Channel comes on?" Sheela huffed impatiently.

Boo just stared, his skin clammy and pale, as if he saw a ghost.

"Okay Boo, you're starting to scare me. What happened?" Sheela asked, her voice wavering.

Boo simply pointed.

Sheela looked at where he was pointing, but didn't see anything.

"Sheela... so... you know how I told you to check your Jumanji stats?" Boo started, his eyes widening.

Sheela nodded.

"Your stats are floating in the air, Sheela. Literally." Boo said.

Sheela's eyebrows practically flew off her face, "UM, WHAT NOW?"

"Your. stats. Are. floating. In. the. Air. Oh, and they're glitching. And by that I mean, GLITCHING SO THAT I CAN SEE EVERYONE ELSE IN JUMANJI!! YES THAT MEANS AIDEN, RUDY, MINI, NIKI ETC. Also, your stats are.... Different. I mean, you actually have a new strength...one that sort of pertains to my character.," Boo said, his eyes displaying astonishment.
