Walking back home on a Friday evening like usual, Terena has her usual smug smile on her face as she talks with Zoe, who is far too used to this to have much of a reaction. As Terena walks on the sidewalk railing, balancing herself while Zoe walks beside her to ensure she doesn't die, the two pause when Terena stares off into the park nearby and points at two human-shaped figures in the distance, "Vanny and Sunshine...."

Not bothering with questioning how in the world Terena is able to tell from so far away, Zoe tries to make out the figure herself before casually smiling back at her childhood friend, wondering if there is a reason why she had pointed it out before sweat dropping lightly once a playful smirk makes its way onto the girl's face as she jumps down from the railing. Knowing the girl is going to do something now, Zoe shakes her head with a sign, "What is it this time, Rena?"

"Well, you see, my dear Zoe~" pulling the six feet girl down to her height, Terena whispers the plan into her ears before letting go and taking out a bomb-like item from her pocket, smiling smugly and clearly not going to back down from it no matter what Zoe says, "So? You in?"

"No one is actually going to get hurt, correct?" asking with her lips pressed together, Zoe signs and shakes her head once Terena nods happily and promises that the bomb is fake and only shoots out confetti, "fine... since you are not going to listen anyways...."

"Yay! Then I'm counting on you!" clapping Zoe's back before running off to do her part of the prank, Terena disappears from sight in less than a minute. Wishing this is not going to end horribly while still trusting Terena's words since she had never really lied to her before, Zoe walks toward the two in the park with her hands in her pocket, being as casual as can be, "Hey, you two."

"Ah! Hello, Zoe!" smiling brightly like always, Axel greets while holding out the box of Oreos that Void was eating for Zoe to take. Greeting the girl as well, Vanessa's happy smile soon turns into pure curiosity as she looks around and peaks behind Zoe with a raised brow, "Say, Zoe... where is Rena? Is she not with you?"

"Rena has something to do and left earlier," technically not a lie, Zoe just smiles down casually while biting down a laugh when the two completely buy into it, ending up tagging along with the two and talking for a bit while waiting for the plan to continue.

With something falling behind them from the tree above them, they look over in confusion before eyes widening at the bomb on the ground with the countdown already about to end. With Vanessa and Alice still had not processed what is happening, the bomb explodes into confetti, leaving a shocked Alice holding tightly onto Zoe and Vanessa gritting her teeth lightly for the prank being pulled on her, walking over to pick up the bomb as she throws a glare over at Zoe, "You knew, didn't you? I swear, whenever you two join hands, it's worse than hell!"

"Sorry, sorry! I just saw no harm in doing this!" Laughing lightly while comforting a pouting Axel, Zoe shakes her head before dodging a ball of mashed-together confetti thrown by Vanessa, "Hey! I'm not the one that decided to do it, though!"

"But you still helped!" pouting as she picks up the bomb, Vanessa walks over to throw it out, so they don't get in trouble before blinking in surprise as she stares at the inside of the bomb, "Wha-"
