NICE! 

Ekko's POV:

Exploring the classroom he would be teaching in, Ekko planned areas he would place the hidden cameras. He knew Dort loved to use this classroom for one on one since it was one of the vintage science rooms of the school. One of the few he hadn't touched with his tackiness.

Out of money my ass! Thinks the white haired boy as he unpacks the last of his things before exploring the rest of the school. He's just another greedy pig!

A knock takes him out of his despair. "Already feeling disgusting?"

"What is there not to hate from the guy?" Ekko looks up at Akira. Even though he found the uniform to be over the top with the color choice and pattern- the tan boy made it work. The open blazer with the somewhat loose tie and one button open shirt gave off heartbreaker which contradicted Akira's soft boy demeanor.

"Well special delivery," Akirs drops the box. Immediately opening it Ekko smiles. At the very top was a doodle of him, Jinix, and Isha drawn by Isha herself. Down below was Jinix's over the top signature made by pink highlighter. Right next to it in wobbly writing in black pen was Isha's name.

Setting the drawing on his desk he took a deeper look at the box's content. Pulling the paper, he found robotic fireflies. A drop of sweat and dread began to drench him.

Flashes of the time Jinix used robotic butterflies to attack the London PD and fought him when she was working for her twisted adopted father Silco flashed before his mind like the paint bombs and actual bombs Jinix used that night with the butterflies. To this day he was still haunted by the fact he almost killed her on the burning London Bridge.

Why is it always politics and the rich tearing us all from each other. He felt bad for you for your love story with Wednesday was no different than his with Jinix. He could only hope your story got a happy ending like his.

Closing the box he nods to Akira, silently telling him the plan you had created was a go. There was no turning back for anyone now.

"Meeting tonight at the lost cemetery during the Witch's hour.. Name- 'Odysseus'. Pattern- the City of the Dead." Ekko nods and pulls out his watch. He turns the time adjuster and flicks it backwards in time while pushing it.

The room is filled with bright light. The light moves as if it was shining from vintage projector.

Soon he finds the box and the drawing that was in front of him was gone along with the track star next to him.

His body had returned to the crouched form it was prior to Akira entering the room. The flashing lights had vanished.

"Already feeling disgust?" asks Akira entering the room with the box containing Jinix's latest bombs.

"This room was quite dirty Mr. Fudo but nothing I'm not used to." Ekko turns and smiles. He twisted his pointer and middle finger as he ran his hand through his pulled back dreadlocks. Signaling that he had used his rewind ability to erase the memories of any potential spies.

Akira gives him a knowing nod. And drops the box. "The office asked me to drop this off for you. Your family said you left tools."

With that the Japanese boy left with some skip in his steps.

Opening the box once more to pull out the drawing, Ekko places it in a frame. Creasing the glass slowly and gently. "Yeah.... My family."

Wednesday's pov:

After all the headaches you, Enid, Xavier, Bianca, her powers and everything from the prior year had given her- she thought she would have gained some defenses or tolerance to them. But here she was with a throbbing headache inside and pink infested cottage on school grounds that was being given to her parents to stay.
