May 30th 201M B.C 2028 (Around Lunch Time)

It was officially lunch time, and the class all began eating, along with Inco and Luna, who were sitting by. Inco watched the kids play while the axolotl licked at her ice cream that Inco had gotten her. Unfortunately for them, the day had only grown hotter from the rising sun now overhead. It was noon, and that meant the full Voldcaldera blistering heat was cranking up now.

Luna had to bust out the spray bottle permanently to periodically mist her gills since the sun was evaporating almost anything that was liquid nearby. She was glad that even her father thought of her and had refilled her spray bottle with cold water from a nearby fountain. She was already sweating but was cooled down when a fresh mist of cold water hit her face and gills. Even Inco wanted in on some of the misting action and had his face misted while he took his glasses off and closed his eyes to keep his retinas from combusting into flames.

Fifteen minutes had come and gone in a flash. Inco had thrown away the devoured food into the trashcan and gone back to the picnic table, where the axolotl had laid her small snout and head on. She looked so adorable, and he was about to get his camera out of her backpack when he felt a hard, bone-breaking smack delivered across his back. He was almost sent out of his seat but was caught by a forceful grip on his collar. "Jeez, Inco, I barely hit your back, and you're already being sent across the state from that?"

He turned around and saw Anon staring back at him with a grin; he was actually sporting a Safari hat that Inco hadn't seen before. He shrugged it off and guessed he may have bought it from one of the gifts: "Hey, Inco!"

His mouth dropped, and he saw Alex coming in with butterfly wings behind his back-large butterfly wings that bounced up and down with his movement. He also had face paint of a tiger; it was really beautiful work, and the detail was exquisite. He looked at Anon, and... He didn't see the butterfly wings behind his back when he saw them the first time. Then again, the wings are super tiny compared to Anon's bulking size, so there's that. He chalked it up to the father-son duo having an inside joke that he wasn't in on. Shrugging and trying to ignore the winged man and boy, it was hard not to laugh at them. He crossed his arms and took pride. "What's up with the-" He stopped himself and turned to look at Luna. He didn't want to say anything since if she heard that they were wearing butterfly wings, then she'd want to be in on that action. "-uh... accessories?"

Anon slowly spun around to show Inco, raising his hands up and smirking as if he had done something genius. "You like? They're practically giving these things away at the gift shop, on sale, and everything. Alex and I saw these butterfly wings, and we both dec-" He was instantly shut up when a powerful force knocked him back and sent him to the ground, clutching his collar and feeling wet, and slimy head pressed against his own now. "WHERE IS IT!? WHERE ARE THE BUTTERFLY WINGS!? TELL ME NOW OR I WILL PULVERIZE YOU WHERE YOU STAND!!!"

Inco's mouth dropped, and he rushed over to pick up the axolotl. Surprisingly, to both males, the axolotl stayed firmly in place and kept her deathly glare in place, which was meant to strike fear. And it did. Anon gulped and saw his life flash before his eyes-everything he had done, everything he had accomplished, and everything he hadn't done yet.

Damnit. He wasn't going to survive to see the next presidential debate, which would surely be another shitshow like the 2024s debate.

He tried to pull the axolotl off of Anon, but she wasn't budging. What Anon could do was slowly stand up and nervously chuckle as she stayed firmly planted on him. "L-Loonie... If you get off me and don't send me to Triceratops Satan's cold damnation hell, I will give you my butterfly wings, deal?"

She was already back down on the ground when he finished what he had told her. Inco was surprised at how absolutely fast she could go; sometimes when she was amped up on sugar, he'd mistake her for The Flash, another speedster, or just something! Watching her smile, brushing her skirt and shirt as if nothing had happened, as if she didn't even say that she would literally damn Anon to hell, Inco sat back down and sighed, feeling relief. The axolotl was using her toes to bob her up and down excitedly as Anon nervously took off the wings and kneeled down in front of her. "Okay, Luna, turn around and open your arms out."
