"You said it, it's not every day I get to be a kid again," Mandara said, he paused for a second when he saw Little Hatter, but just shrugged it off, just like with MC he was starting to get used to finding the unexpected.

"Before we go, there is a massive elephant in the room that we need to address," MA declared, "the arcade is in the middle of the city and is a very public place full of humans. We all know in one way or another that humans become very violent when they are afraid, and nothing scares them more than magic and the unknown."

"Uncle is right," Poldara agreed, "Umbra, Eclipse, and you two all need to figure out how to disguise yourselves, and not use magic in any way, shape, or form, got it?"

Eclipse held a thumbs up and snapped his fingers, he turned back into a kid but this time he was a human child. He looked to be about Cherry's age and had black hair, tanish skin, and bright blue eyes, he also had a shield-shaped "birthmark" that outlined his right eye.

"I'm ready," he smiled, "and since Eclipse isn't exactly a human name, you all can call me ... um ... Hayden, that sounds like a cool name."

All four Angelics, if we include the smaller version of Hatter, nodded in agreement to Poldara's statement.

Despite all the magic, all the spells, incantations, and summonings, Cherry looked stunned as she gawked at Eclipse under his new form. It felt strange to see him as a human.

-"Ah, nose!" She exclaimed, lightly pinching the other's nose.

-"Wow, like you have never seen one before" Kiara sarcastically muttered.

-"It's just that I wasn't expecting this," The teen replied without taking her eyes off of the newly dubbed Hayden. "but you look super cool, Hayden."

Hatter closed his eyes and exhaled. A blue mist escaped his mouth as his physical features changed.

He was no longer wearing MA's borrowed garments, the man was dressed in a pair of black jeggings, a printed T-shirt, his vintage overcoat turned into a fishtail parka with an extremely fluffy trim. Hatter's right eye was now a dark grey while the left one remained pale. His hair pigmented itself as if drops of watercolor had contact with water, soon the white was replaced by an obsidian which had electric blue reflections under the light of the sun.

As a final addition, his top hat stretched and swished itself to morph into a cap.

The smaller hatter's tail disappeared and his facial features resembled the ones of his original, only he was wearing overalls and no hat.

What Hatter did next was to put a seal on Cherry's eyes which returned to a light bluish-grey as they normally were, and then it was Umbra's turn.

-"It would be better if we both had controllers on, that way neither of us would be tempted to cast any spells." Luz voiced her thoughts.

Kiara, still in powered-down form, scrunched her nose and was about to say something when her twin materialized a pair of heavy handcuffs.

-"Hold on- No, Lu please wait-I SAID WAIT !!!" She panicked and tried to escape, but her sister was faster.

Soon enough she felt her body getting heavier from the force of gravitational attraction which now was applied to her body.

Kiara's purple locks had left their place for dark brown ones that still covered her empty eye socket. She looked like some emo teenager and she hated it.

-"I told you to wait!" She fumed as her sibling put on her own magic-containing shackles which disappeared as if they never were there. "Get them off!" Kiara whined.
