"where is jj today?" pope asked as i plopped down on john b's couch. opening a beer that i had gotten from the fridge.

"he works today. i think 10:00 to 3:00?" kie replied not fully having an answer.

"he does." john b quickly said as he ran into his room.

i watched john b run back out about four minutes later. he was changed into different clothes, and his hair was now under a hat.

"where are you going?" i questioned him as i took a sip of my beer.

"fishing. my dad is taking me. he said something about that royal merchant thing and how he needs to talk to me about it. not really sure. but you guys can hang here, we'll only be gone for a couple of hours." john b pulled on his shoes as big john walked into the chateau holding two fishing rods.

"you guys coming?" big john asked us other three.

"i think we are okay." kie chuckled as she shook her head.

big john and john b both walked out of the chateau and the door slammed behind them.

"what should we do today?" kie asked us two.

"i mean, what is there to do?" pope looked at both of us with no hope.

"i say not surfing, my body still aches from last time."

"yeah, no. mine hurts too." kie agreed with me.

us three sat and watched the small tv that was playing. it had the news on. something about a robbery that happened last week in an entirely different town than us.

i started to take note that the chateau was cold, the goose bumps on my arms letting me know that the ac was running hard. it felt nice seeing as the walk over here this morning was hot and sticky.

i took my hair out of the bun that it was previously in and flung my hair tie at pope, catching his attention and him whining about the pain it caused.

"that hurt cooper."

"it wasn't me. it was kie." i defended gaining a 'what?' from kie.

pope flung it back at me, hitting me in the cheek.

"game on." i stated as i grabbed the one he flung and another off my wrist.

i flung one at him, missing and hitting kie, but i hit him with the second one, right in the chest.

"cooper!" kie said as she grabbed it and flung it at me.

i had definitely started a war, but at least it was something to do.

i ran over to the kitchen and hid behind the counter as i heard kie yell something.

pope came up next to me and hit me with the hair tie right in the knee. i winced, but it was bearable pain so i grabbed it and aimed it at kie. i missed and it hit the wall behind her, but because i was not covered by the counter anymore, she had hit me in the ear with a different one.
