"Well," Ella said while looking at the door, "I guess we'll have to deal with coming up with an excuse sooner than expected." I looked at her, then back to the door.
'What am I going to do...?' I looked back to Ella. "We'll just have to say you're an old friend of mine who came over in a surprise visit." I said. "Let's just hope they don't question you too much." I looked at the door then back to Ella. "They will question why you have armor on... So hide that, I guess?" She just looked at me before nodding. The pieces of armor she was wearing began to glow blue before disappearing.

"Is this good?" She asked me, I nodded in response.
"I'll go answer the door, you just keep eating for now." I said while getting up and walking towards the door. Ella just continued to eat.

I opened the door and looked at my two friends.
"Hey, Lilly, Sam." I said looking to the two of them.
"It's a bout time you opened the door," Lilly said, "what took you so long anyways?" She has short brown hair that goes in front of her face a bit, and forest green eyes. She was wearing a dark blue long sleeved shirt with a black skirt along with white knee high socks and black shoes.

"Me and Sam had to wake up early just to get here now. Even had to skip breakfast." Lilly said while looking back to her twin sister, the only thing different between the two being that Sam keeps her hair out of her face, and has to wear glasses. Sam wears basically the same outfit as Lilly, just Sam's shirt is light green and has short sleeves.

"Sorry, I was in the bathroom," I shrugged, "not much I could do from in there. Tell you what, I'll make you two something quick while we wait for Eric." The two girls started to walk inside with me. "Thank you, Matt..." Sam said while looking at me.

"Yeah, thanks... Matt..?" Lilly began to say as she saw Ella sitting down, still eating.
"Hello," Ella said while looking over towards the two girls, "I do not think we have met, my name is Ella." Lilly just stared at her.

"Why are you here?" Lilly asked Ella before turning to look at me. "Care to explain why you have a girl in your house, Matt?" Lilly glared at me.
"Um..." I said. "You do realise that you're also a girl in my house, right?" Lilly just kept glareing at me. "Anyways, she's an old friend that I have not spoken to in a very long time. She actually came here yesterday..."

Lilly looked back over to Ella.
"So you're a friend of his?" She asked Ella, Ella nodded in response. "That's it, right?" Ella looked over at Lilly.
"He's the most important person in the world to me." She said. Lilly's eye began to twitch. I sigh.

'Please hurry and get here fast, Eric...'
I look over at Lilly, who started to argue with Lilly, then I looked over to Sam who was just standing there being quiet while looking at the two other girls fight. I sigh again. 'This is going to be a long wait, isn't it?' I walk back into the kitchen where I begin to start making a few sandwiches.

"Now now... Where will I find my little book thief?" They say while slowly walking through a crowd of people who don't even notice that they're there. "I'll have to find him soon if I want to punish him properly." They begin to laugh slightly. "I'll be seeing you soon, Matt~" They look around. "Whose there?" Slowly the crowd of people disappear one at a time, all but one person. He has crimson hair and silver eyes, and is wearing a white button up shirt and black jeans.

"I can't let you just attack Matt like that," he said, "I would not be a good friend if I did, would I? Especially since he has two things that you want." He looked over at the person, who was holding a long gray staff that looked like a tree branch, and is wearing black robes and a witche's hat, covering their face.

"Two things?" The witch said. "I'm sure I just want the Book of Reality from him." The man looked at the witch.
"Oh so you don't really know about him, huh?" He said. "Well, care to tell me your name? I'm Eric, just so you know." The witch looked at him.

"Eric, huh? Do you even know who I am?" They said while their eyes narrowed at Eric.
"From your appearance, I'd say you're the Blackout Witch, May, correct?" Eric replied.
"You're correct." The witch said to him. "Now what makes you think you can beat me in a fight?" Eric just chuckled slightly.
"You obviously don't know who I am." He said. "Let's just make this quick, I've got to meet up with my friends soon anyways, and I don't like to be late." A crimson aura began to surround Eric as a red circle appeared under him, inside the circle was a five point star, with symbols and markings around and inside the star.

The witch just looked at him before pointing their staff at him. "You'll bleed then." The witch said as a black aura surrounded them.
