Jacob's POV:

The Grand Celebration was going to start in 1 hour. Nathan and I got ready. Nathan put on the suit with the red tie and I put on the suit with the blue tie. They were perfect fits. I looked over at Nathan. He was checking himself out in the mirror. I could tell he was nervous.

Me: "You ok?"

Nathan: "Hmm? Oh, yeah, I guess."

I didn't know what to say.

Me: "That was a great fight today."

Nathan: "Hmm?"

Me: "Between you and Ash."

Nathan: "Oh, yeah."

Me: "Are you ok? You seem nervous."

Nathan: He let out a sigh. "It's just that, Everything that's happened so far, and I'm being celebrated for most of it." He walked over to one of the beds and sat down next to Eve. "What if this was all just a big mistake? What if I wasn't suppose to be the chosen one? I mean, yeah, we are in the universe of our dreams, but is all of this really worth the trouble?"

He put his head down. Eve wrapped her ribbon like feelers around Nathan's arm. I sat down next to him. I still wasn't sure what to do but I felt like giving him a hug, so I did.

Me: "It's going to be alright. We'll get through this together and find a way back to our world."

Nathan: He sniffled. "Thanks, Jacob." There was a short pause. "I think I'm ready now."

He lifted his face revealing a smile. A tear was running down his cheek. Eve wiped it away with one of her feelers. We both stood up.

Me: "Alright, let's go have some fun."

Nathan's POV:

We entered the building the celebration was taking place in. One thing was for sure, it was big. It looked like every inkling in Inkoplise came. Some brawlers even came. I was still a little nervous about all of this but Eve's feelers were wrapped around my arm sending me a calming aura.

???: "I was promised cake!"

Me: "That voice sounds familiar." I looked over and sure enough there was Mindy, Lucas, Riley, and Soup. I walked over to them. "Hey guys."

Mindy: "Oh. Hi, Nathan."

Me: "Glad to see you guys could make it."

Riley: "Are you kidding? We wouldn't miss this for the world."

Mindy: "How are you enjoying things so far."

Me: "Everything's going great. How about you guys?"

Riley: "Umm," she looked over at Soup. "Things could be better."

Soup: "I was promised cake and the only edible matter here is Brownies!"

Lucas: "If you think about it, it is food so-"

Soup: "But I was promised cake! Where is it?"

???: "It's coming out in a little bit."

I also recognized that voice. We all turned our heads and saw Callie and Marie.

Marie: "Glad to see you boys could make it."

Jacob: "Well, we had nowhere else to go and nothing better to do."

Callie: "Well, now that you're here we can do this."

Callie pulled out a phone.

Mindy, Lucas, Riley, & Soup: "Selfie!"
