A few weeks later...
"Hey, guys!" Aki yelled, bursting through the door.
"What now?" Echo groaned, sitting on the sofa and braiding Luna's hair.
"Did you see what they've done to Cold Stone? Some of the villagers from Oakvill went there to help the guys in Yuka build it up again! It's lookin' amazing!!" Aki told them.
"Whoa! Really??" Luna tried to turn her head to Aki.
"Uh! Stay still," Echo told her, not finishing her hair yet.
"Ah! Sorry!!" Luna panicked, looking straight again.
"We never ended up going to Oakville, did we?" Yurio muttered, walking to Leo - who was sitting colouring at the table - with some more colouring pens.
"No... Galaxy kinda killed the mood when she tried to kill us," Luna agreed.
"Where is Galaxy?" Aki wondered, looking about the room.
"I told her to make herself useful and help Atomu cook something. I refuse to leave him unsupervised in the kitchen. Not after the last experience......." Echo mentioned, triggering a flashback.
"Ughhh! Where's the red wine gone?!" Echo searched the kitchen cupboards while sausages sizzled in a pan.
"Heyy I ordered- *hiccup* Mac and cheese!" Atomu could be heard from the front door.
"Uh?" Echo out in confusion.
She poked her head around the door of the hallway.
"This is a pizza delivery service...." A guy standing outside the door with pizza explained.
"Yourrrrre a pizza delivery service!!!" Atomu tried to insult????
"Oh dear Lord....!" Echo froze in horror to see a drunk Atomu with a cup of red wine?!!
"... erm, yeah. You ordered a large pepperoni with spicy sausages-"
"HAH! You're a spicy sausages!" Atomu laughed, almost falling back and spilling his drink.
"Erm... I'm sorry??" The guy was confused and flustered.
"You should be without my Mac and cheese, you— you Mac and cheese stealer! Just showing up with your... spicy sausage. I don't even like spice!! But shhhshshs! Don't tell them that," Atomu slurred.
"Who?" The pizza guy questioned.
"THE DEMONS!! They'll getcha!" Atomu suddenly tipped back!!
He bashed into Echo, who was standing behind him, spilling his drink in the process.
"... that will be ten jewels," the guy mentioned.
"TEN J— oh, that's actually not bad. Thanks," Echo gave him the money.
Back to the present...
"Rightttt, and who's supervising her??" Aki asked.
"........... Kyou," Echo addressed with concern to the studying Kyou.
"On it," he got to his feet and hurried to the kitchen.
"I can supervise..." Luna pouted.
"The tea you offered me last week almost killed me!" Aki lectured her.
"I didn't mean toooo! I'm still trying to make tea and stuff from my magic! But it's hard figuring out how much magic I can use before it becomes inedible," Luna whimpered.
