Chapter 20 - Her Highness

15th April xx21

This day was amazing. Travis and I met Brave Heart which I didn't know existed until like a few days ago. Still cool though. Ancient warrior. I have a hunch that Ron is her brother, but I'm still scared to ask. I mean, look at him! He's massive. What a day it was. I still wonder, how did the robot know my name from home? Well, I guess I end here then. I wonder how people end their journals. I think there's a way to end every entry but right now, I don't really care. 'School' tomorrow, yay. I hate this school stuff. Going to have to do that stupid project. At least Travis is having a better time than me.

Gabe yawned and scurried into bed. Tucked himself in and fell into a deep sleep.

He woke up early the next morning and for the first time since he had attended school in San Diego, he was early.

The day went on as per normal. Tessa still scowled at him. "Meet me by the bench to work on our project. Trevor and Maddie would be there. Show up or whatever I literally don't care at this point." Wayne, claiming that he would beat Gabe in their next practice and all stuff that is leaning.

It was a mundane day. No life-threatening missions have happened so far. To Tessa's astonishment, Gabe actually showed up to work on the project.

"Your royal subject is here, Your Highness," Gabe gave a sarcastic bow causing Maddison and Trevor to snicker and Tessa to roll her eyes.

"Your late," she retorted.

Gabe just shrugged and took his seat. Trevor and Maddison had finished their project a long time ago. They were just there to provide moral support and help in the idea development stage. An hour later, they were able to come up with an idea to 'Save The Planet'. They agreed to make a slide presentation showcasing a game idea that uses augmented reality to make cleaning up, a game.

Just like expected, Tessa had to type out the presentation because she didn't trust Gabe with it.

Gabe decided to take up the role as the 'official pointer' where he points and commands what he wants it to look like as Tessa types it all out on her laptop. "You got to add that picture there and add that there. Why do you take so long?"

"I won't put it there! Do you have any colour theory!?" Tessa retaliated.

"Sheesh, fine, 'princess'," Gabe emphasized the word 'Princess' and slumped back on the bench. "Don't you dare laugh! Don't think I don't see you, grandpa," Gabe added sarcastically to Trevor who was trying to suppress a laugh. "Don't you see that her royal highness is very busy?" Trevor could no longer hold it in and burst out laughing.

Maddison began laughing too. "Oh yea, this is way better than any drama you can see on television."

"Ugh, not you too," Tessa moaned. She packed up her laptop, grabbed Maddison's hand and dragged her away. "I will not let these 'males' influence you. We're done here anyway," she said pointing at the two boys.

By now, both boys were now belly-laughing so hard that tears were coming out of their eyes. Tessa dragged the laughing Maddison out of sight.

The search for Miles Buker continues. Every night, Trevor searches through thousands of footage through a super-computer that he built. Not very surprising at this point. Weeks went by but unfortunately, there were no signs of Miles Buker.
