February, present time.

Danni and Aria sat at a table in the library at lunch. Everyone else was there, Danni and Aria were just very intensely playing a card game.  A single green uno card sat between them, about to catch on fire from the intensity of their glares.  Aria finally drew a good card, but it was more than that; it was a chance to avenge her lost keyboard keys. Danni cackled at the card, and asked Aria if she really thought he could be defeated by a single card. "You really thought, really believed, that you could beat me?" He asked, sliding a red coin across the tabletop. It slid smoothly over and off the card, and on to the floor. No wonder Danni has mad bitches. "Shit."

"Pathetic", Aria spat. Danni eloquently responded with "shut the fuck up." He grabbed the coin off the floor and held it over the green 4 uno card. "Aha, 4 in a row." Aria banged her fists on the table, disappointment and anger splashed across her face. "This isn't fair, you always win at connect 4!"  "But I still won, and you have your end of the deal to uphold." Danni smirked, holding out his hand. Aria hesitated, but decided against fighting, and handed Danni her B key."Huehuehue, finally my meal." He devours the key in one full gulp as a tear of frustration falls from Aria's eye. Ryn stares at them both "...Guys we're playing go fish"

Gemma and Sam looked on in confusion, the inescapable feeling of change washing over them.
