"-so what do you do when you get home ?" asked Rose while she was admiring her nails, although she almost never painted them, today she did, because of boredom, so she painted small palm trees on her nails, and although they were stunning, her active life would eventually ruin them. "I watch TV, then I get bored and start playing with my pet, Rock" answered Jeremy as he inspected his club for any bits stuck on it "wait, you have a pet rock ?!" asked Rose astounded "no, I have a hermit crab as pet, and his name is Rock" clarified Jeremy "oh... OK..." said Rose before sighing "can we swim ashore now ?" she asked, her patience running out "no, Jack is back, how can he be so wack ?" Jeremy said frustrated, but Rose snorted and let out a stiffled laugh "wait... did you just rhyme ?" asked rose between giggles, however Jeremy took a little bit to realize why Rose found it funny "wait... did I? 'jack... back... wack...' oh I get it !" Jeremy then laughed as well scaring some nearby birds, then it was quiet once again ... "hey... Jeremy" "yeah Rosie ?" "don't call me that !" "alright alright, what do you want ?" the wind blowed harder, making ripples in the water below "I was just wondering... do you like me ?" Rose asked "well of course I do ! you are like a little sister !" "OK, for the record I'm the same age as you" rose said "yeah, yet you don't act like it" "shut ! thats not true !" chuckled rose "remember when you had that argument with that girl, Coral ?" "oh come on it wasn't that bad ! I think we were pretty mature about it" "you had a cat fight ! how is that mature ?!" exclaimed Jeremy "first of all rude ! and second of all it wasn't a cat fight !" said Rose calmly "so then what do you call it when you make your pet cats fight each other ?!" "trial by fur ball" Jeremy was quiet for a second debating on whether or not to laugh about it, but before he could say anything the ground began to shake "w-what the- !" Jeremy exclaimed as he stumbled to the side of of the tower to see what had caused the tremor, much to his surprise, the bridge was once again afloat, and Will was standing at the lever, along with some other 3 kids who looked like they had helped him, Jeremy was thrilled, but his thrill was soon replaced by amusement, as Rose tried to pull him the same way he had just yesterday but due to his inmense mass and Rose's rather weak arms "heh, nice try, you almost caught me by surprise too, but you should know that I'm -" he was cut short by Rose grabbing her shield and ramming him down the stairs, she may have weak pulling arms, but she pushed with the might of a thousand rhinos, how she did so is unknown... however it used to be rumored that she learned a special technique when she was little, however that isn't important right now, what is important is that Jeremy is stumbling down the stairs at a rather alarming speed, by the time he was at the bottom of the tower Jeremy was left in a daze, however he was relatively unharmed, all the football gear he had on had protected him from most of the blows. He then stood up only to see that Rose was coming right after him, using her shield as some sort of board as she went down the stairs. Jeremy barely managed to get out of the way as Rose flew right by and skidded to a stop on the bridge with her hands on her hips, but Jeremy just huffed "show-off" he chuckled "come on fatty, let's get out of here" Rose said as she kicked up her shield to pick it up similar to how one would to a skateboard and started to walk away "I'll be there in a minute, I left my club on top of the tower, because, you know, you" with that Jeremy stood up and started the long trip up the stairs while Rose sighed and waited for him to get to the top... after a long time Jeremy came back down the stairs, dragging his club behind him. "took you long enough, I was starting to grow a beard just waiting for you" Jeremy chuckled "I would compliment the sarcasm, but by the amount of facial hair I can see from here I can tell that you aren't joking" Rose's face turned red with embarrassment as she immediately covered her mouth "is it really noticeable ?" this reaction just made Jeremy Crack up "I was joking, but you should have seen your face, " he chuckled. After that the two of them crossed the bridge...
