Rascal - The Merc With A Mouth

Hi guys! What's up? That last chapter from Kendall was a bitch, wasn't it? Don't worry, it is actually gonna get resolved! (finally)

Don't worry about this chapter, it's written by Caleb so nobody or nothing dies! (Well, maybe except for Kendall's sense of humor, which was sick in the first place).

You also get to meet, yours truly, me!

But you aren't here to listen to me, you're here to read, so I guess I'll give the pen back to Caleb so he can write what you desperate readers actually want to hear. See you guys in a few pages!

From the moment Tori gave me Tal's note, I knew I was screwed.

"Why didn't you tell me?" the note read, ""Before ruining our talk, he erased records. We need to talk again. You know where to meet me, possession has aged me, I'm over 18." That didn't seem like much at first, but that was bad. Very bad. And dangerous. So naturally it was the first place I went when I left Hogwarts.

Tal always joked that when he turned 18 he would actually start trying to get into a muggle college. He was smart, he just never felt like taking any of their tests.

Now that he had pretty much been shunned by Hogwarts, I figured that he'd try to get into a low-key American school. Apparently not. After looking through his browsing history I found that he had been showing interest in West Virginia University, ranked by Playboy as one of the top party schools in the country.

After chartering a private jet and taking off, I called Tal.

"You probably want to kill me right now, don't you?" he answered.

"Not really. I just need a break."

"Look I'm sorry about Kendall, but -- where are you?"

"Uh, I'm driving with the top down."

"Sure. With the gas pedal on the floor."

"Okay, you got me. I'm in a plane."

"YOU'RE FLYING A PLANE AND TALKING ON THE PHONE?!"

"No," I laughed, "I'm in a plane, not flying it."

"Isn't that still illegal?"

"Yep."

"Oh."

"But I'm coming to meet you, so where are you?"

"Didn't you get 'his' note. It's kinda mine, but it was written while he was controlling me, so it's probably very angry."

"Yeah, I got the note. West Virginia?"

"You're good. Speaking of the note....the secret message I left you....I don't remember how I found out, but it's been bothering me since."

"That. I don't even know where to start. I wasn't even sure of it until you told me your story the other day."

"So it's true?"

"It's true."

"I gotta say though. That's kinda awesome. You, of all people, an intergalactic badass."

"I'm hardly an intergalactic badass."

"That's at least what Catherine thinks."

"Catherine? When did you see her?"

"The Doctor and she just left my house."

"Woah, woah, you bought a house?!"

"Not exactly. 'He' bought the house, passed out, and I woke up."
