Chapter three - Book's plan.

Book then hugs Match knowing she isn't okay.
Match smiled at her feeling warm and safe.

Book then nudged Bubble letting her know to hug Match. Bubble walked up to Match and hugged her tightly.

"You sure theres a reasoning to all this?" Ruby asked Book.

"Yeah.. I know it.. and I think we need to get Death pact in on this too." Book said with confidence.

"You're plan- are you crazy?! How do you know if we can trust them?!" Ice cube said.

"Death prevention and creating trust, it's in the name sweetie." Book said patting Ice cubes head.

"Then I agree!!" Ice cube said.

Match got up then had her hands on the table.

"You good-?" Ruby asked Match.

"I'm just going to the restroom."  Match said walking away.

"Which one of you have the bravery to go up to them-" Book says then stops talking after the entire table points at her, she sighs.

Book gets up walking up to the table with all the Death pacter's.

Marker and Black hole talking but Marker turns around seeing Book and the entire table looks at her.

"I.. uhm.." She chuckles nervously scratching her head.

"Do you need something?" Tree ask Book.

"ARE UH-" Book clears her throat.

"Are any of you in classes with P-Pencil..?"
Book says nervously, she usually doesn't talk to people outside of Freesmart a lot.

"No." Black hole says.

"I don't think so." Fanny said.

"Not that I think.." Tree said.

"Sorry but no." Pie says.

"Not at all!" Remote said.

"I am!!" Marker says proudly.

"What do you need?" Black hole asked.

"Uhm.. uh.. erm.. I want you to s-steal." Book says then they all gasp.

"Wh-What did I say something wrong!?" Book says nervously.

"Our group is creating trust and you need us to STEAL?!" Black hole said questioning.

"It's in the name Book- I don't think stealing would be trustworthy." Tree says.

"But what if it's for a good cause??"
Remote said asking.

"How can STEALING be for a good CAUSE!?" Fanny said aggressively.

"Maybe if we listen to her we can see why."
Pie said.

"Uh- w-well I feel like theres something going on with Pencil that she isn't telling us and it's making Match feel really down and I don't like seeing a friend sad!" Book said.

#8 always cheer up you're friend any way you can.

"Hm.. seems pretty reasonable." Black hole says.

"I'm thinking the information of she's hiding could be in one of her journals or diaries."
Book said.

"But that would be invading privacy!" Tree said.

"Death pact meeting!" Fanny said with Book stepping back leaning against the wall. All she could hear was them whispering and chattering then seeing if they would follow her plan.

They all stop whispering and talking, Marker gives a hand gesture for Book to come back.
Book walks up to them putting her hands behind her back.

"We agree." Pie says.

"Marker you aren't really stealthy though." Fanny said.

"HEY!! I'll try my best." Marker said pouting.

"Marker, you're a little cutie and all and thats why I trust you.. but if you mess this up expect me to be mad." Black hole said.

"Wait- what did you just call me-" Marker said this getting cut off by Book.

"Thanks guys, I really appreciate the help!"
Book hugs Marker then shakes hands with each and every one of the Death Pacter's.

Book walks up to group Freesmart and gives them a thumps up before, the bell rings.

—————————————————————

In english class.

Everyone walks in class, including Marker and Pencil.

Markers POV:

"Hello class!! Today we will be learning about.."X saying this while I zone out looking at my desk.

Wait.. what was the plan again?! Didn't Book assign me to do something? Shoot I forgot- goodness I'm so forgetful. Ugh why can't I remember things properly-
—————————————————————
Marker stopped thinking as X called him out.

"Marker- what did you do over the summer?"
X asked Marker.

"I uh- played t-toss the dirt..?" Marker couldn't even think throughly so he just said something random.

"That's wonderful!!"
X said cheeringly.

Markers POV:

"So- as I was saying.." X kept going on and talking to other students.. maybe even to me but I wasn't even paying attention. I had to focus on.. Pencil!

I just couldn't stop looking at Pencils bag because it was right in front of me while she sat in front of me too. Ohh.. OHH!! I needed to grab one of the journals.. so how would I not get caught..?

—————————————————————

Marker fake drops his Pencil.

"Oopsies!!" Marker said whispering then feeling Pencils bag unzipping it, good think the class wasn't quiet so people would hear but suddenly..

"Hey- what the-" Pin said but Marker covered her mouth.

"Shush!!" Marker said then Pin raises an eyebrow in confusion.

Pin grumbled, Marker took his hand off her mouth. Pin snatched paper out of her notebook, took her pencil out an started writing.

Meanwhile, Marker took his hand dug into Pencils bag and got the journal. Pin shoved a note paper in Markers face.. him reading it saying-

"Marker what the cork board are you doing!? Why are you taking Pencil's belongings?!"
- from Pin.

Marker rolled his eyes, took out his pencil then wrote.

"Please don't tell her- it's for a good cause!"
- from Marker.

Marker gave Pin the paper while Marker zipped up Pencils bag.

"Listen- I know I don't really like Pencil but stealing isn't good I despise it, and I don't know if it's actually "for a good cause."
She quotes with her fingers, and Pin whispers to Marker.

Marker begged Pin not to tell Pencil. All he did was wave a finger at her too- the bell rang.

Marker ran out the classroom with the journal, seeing Tree in the hallway and handing it to him.
"Give it to Book in Math!!" Marker whispered with Tree nodding then taking Pencils Journal.

Marker still running then Pin pinning Marker to a wall.

"I will tell PENCIL!" Pin said demandingly.

"NO DON'T!" Marker said with his hands up in surrender.

"HEY! Leave my friend ALONE!" Fanny said yanking the back of Pins shirt.

"OW!! Ugh fine." Pin said walking away, then Marker hugged Fanny.

"What happened-" Fanny asked.

"No time to explain we've gotta get to math!!"
Marker said grabbing Fannys hand then running to math.

In math, Tree gave Book Pencils journal.
