turns her laptop on to join the wizchat with her parents. "Hey guys."

"Hi Amy." Hana sat on Tina's right, while Robert was on her left.

"You okay, Aims?" Nico asked she sat to the left of Robert.

"Yeah, just got back from training." Amy sat down, "I think I might have hit rock bottom."

Nico leans forward looking at Hana, "What was that thing you used to say about rock bottom?"

Hana smiles and sits up, "Once you hit rock bottom, no place to go but up."

Amy's face lit up, Nico looks at the screen, "Does not mean get high!"

Amy's smile vanished, Hana immediately added, "But if it helps..." Hana shrugs. Both Tina and Robert looked at Hana, who sighed, "People deal in different ways."

"Bad idea, Hana." Robert berated.

"All I'm saying is, people differ in ways to deal with shit." Hana explains, "For example, Nico has her religion and dad you deal with shit by doing mom..."

Tina turned red, "Hana!"

Amy smirks, "The terrifying part about that is Hana said that with a straight face."

"Everyone that is close to you needs therapy..." Nico shakes her head.

Hana smiles, "But yeah, do whatever the hell you want..."

Nico and Amy in unisons continued, "Just don't get caught."

Amy grabs a throw pillow and lays it on her lap, "Hana's motto... miss you, guys."

Hana smiles, "Miss you too, いもうと ."

Amy turns her laptop off and sighed.

Tina shuts the laptop off, as Nico looks at both her parents expecting to yell at Hana or at the very least have her mother glare at her. But to Nico's utter disappointment, no such punishment was carried out. Instead, Tina just took a deep breath. To say that Nico was in awe would have been an understatement.

As both Tina and Robert exited the room, Nico slid beside her sister. "How'd you do that?"

Hana looks at her sister confused, "Do what?"

"Not get in trouble." Nico clarifies, "I mean if I said what you said, mom would beat my ass."

"They need me." Hana shrugs. Nico looked confused, "I am petty," Hana sighs, "you know that. And Wizard only got out of the hole that Morgan dug when I gave up my company, and since I am me so, I had a contract drafted which states if I the previous owner feel the need to take back my company I could. If that happens, the sales of Wizard products." Hana smirks.

Nico moves away, "You scare me."
