I woke up in Sun arms. I stared at him while he was asleep.

"Why are you watching sleep you weirdo," he said.

"I was not watching you sleep. I thought I saw a big zit growing on your forehead," I replied.

He quickly stood up, "where? Where is the zit? I need a mirror now."

"I was lying," I said as I started laughing.

"You were lying," he said as he slowly turned his head and looked at me. I nodded yes.

"You were lying," he repeated as he slowly started to move closer to me with his hands raised.

"What are you about to do," I said.

"Since you lied, you have to be punished," he said.

"What kind of punishment are you talking about," I replied.

"This is going to hurt you more than it going to hurt me," he said as he continued to move closer to me. I was sure about what he was about to do and then he all of a sudden started tickling me. He knew I was ticklish, so he used that against. After a few seconds, he got up and went to take a shower and then stepped out of the room.

After he left, I laid in bed looking at the ceiling. I just kept thinking about how I got here. I just laid there thinking. I am not sure about how long I laid in bed, but I decided to get up and start my day.

When I walked out of the room, I saw Sun and Nate whispering to each other down the hall. When they saw me walk into the room, they walked away. I wanted to say something, but I figured they needed to talk about something important so instead I went to eat breakfast. In the dining hall, the kids were just talking and having a good time. It was nice seeing them just being kids. They did not know what was going on and I did not want them to know. I got up and started walking toward the office that Nate went to. As I walked in, Samantha, Milk, Indigo followed suit.

"So, what are we going to do? We cannot keep on staying on the run all our lives nor do I want to see these children go back to a world where they can be free to be them," I protested.

"I truly understand but what can we do?" Nate said.

"I think we should fight. We should take the fight to them because if we do not stand up for ourselves, then I am not sure what tomorrow will be like for the young ones," I replied.

"Does everyone else agrees here?" Nate asked.

Even though I know there was hesitation, everyone agreed that we would fight back. Nate contacted the other houses and they agreed that it was time to make a move. Nate and Samantha remained in the office in order to start planning everything.

When I walked out of the office, I was surprised. I am not sure how long the meeting was for but while we were discussing everything, everyone else was decorating the house. I knew that there was going to be a fashion show, but I did not know the house was going to look so different. They transformed the living room into a dazzling catwalk, adorning it with vibrant decorations and colorful floating lights that was in the air. Fabrics of all shades and patterns were strewn about, as they curated an eclectic collection of outfits that embodied their unique styles and identities. Everyone was getting seated for the show and I was really happy to see everyone not allowing their circumstances to stop them from having fun. I sat down by Sun as I waited for the show to begin.

A young boy named Ethan stepped onto the runway, his skirt swirling with colors that seemed to dance and shift on their own. The fabric held a magical essence, changing patterns and hues in response to his emotions, revealing his vibrant spirit to the audience. As he moved, tiny sparks of light trailed in his wake, leaving a trail of magic in the air. Next was Olivia who was wearing a business suit that seemed to ripple with hidden enchantments. The fabric shimmered with an iridescent glow, reflecting the magic within her. With a wave of her hand, her suit transformed, morphing into a flowing gown with intricate patterns. She radiated confidence and power, channeling her magical prowess into her elegant stride. Max, the exuberant young boy, took the stage, wearing clothes that seemed to defy gravity. His garments were imbued with levitation spells, causing them to float and swirl around him as he moved, creating a mesmerizing spectacle. His presence elicited gasps of awe and wonder as he weaved spells into his performance, casting bursts of colorful sparks and summoning ethereal creatures that danced alongside him. Raven, the girl who embraced the allure of darkness, made her entrance, her gothic attire an exquisite tapestry of shadow and light. Her dress was adorned with delicate, bewitched lace that shifted and transformed, responding to her emotions, and casting a soft, eerie glow. As she sashayed down the runway, her steps left behind trails of wispy mist, conjuring an aura of mystique and enchantment.
