"Don't mention it," Kaia practically strutted next to me. I laughed, until she said,"seriously don't. Chase won't let me hear the end of it."
"So, are you Chase and Chloe close?" I asked.
"Well when you're stuck with those two everyday, you have to get used to them."
Okay, so there's definitely some tension between those three. I shouldn't pry though because 1)that would be rude 2) I'm way too shy.
The Triplicity was beautiful though. It was like a summer camp with different buildings for different activities. Each building had a sign on the door illustrating what would occur inside, such as a paintbrush for the art building and a...well...I don't even want to know.
A stone pathway led out of the woods, through the activity buildings and to a new area with four houses, each with three levels. They collected in a circular formation. A light green house with brown wood panels faced north. It had a collection of plants in window boxes and was surrounded by oak trees.
Going clockwise from the green house, there was a blue house that shimmered and seemed to be made of glass. It was styled like a beach house, with a porch and an outdoor hot tub.

"You're Cancer," Kaia continued,"so you'll be in the Water House."
"How does everyone know what sign I am already? I never told you."
"You're literally making no attempt to hide your badge." Kaia pointed at my ankle, which still showed a faint outline:

You know that feeling you get when it's just too quiet? The hairs on your neck stand up and every nerve in your body is screaming,"DANGER!"
That's how I felt when Kaia led me into a white empty void.
Okay, so it wasn't exactly a void. I could tell we were standing on something, so there had to be a floor of some sort. But other than that, nothing.
