Okay, think Emaline, how do you solve this problem? Ducking, as another chair whizzes it's way past my head, I can't think of a single thing. Oh my god, you are so not proving yourself to be an intelligent-self-sufficient-kind-of-girl ugh. Of course, talking to myself isn't helping, but eh old habits what can I say, am I right?
Before I can spring into action (because you know I was on the brink of glory), Rin transforms into beast-girl (hey I didn't want to call her Mr. Wolfy, that's just insulting; she deserves better). Rin and Kaden go tumble-weeding into their backyard in a massive, hairy ball of fury as Jordan and I stand completely silent.
"Uuuuuuh, wtf just happened?"
"I don't know, Jor, I don't know." That all really spiraled out of control, didn't it?
"Well, I say we get out of here, while our heads are still attached to our bodies."
"You know what, Jor? I, surprisingly, agree with that. Are we doing another spell to get back?"
"Hell no. Were you in a standing coma or something? Come on, you saw how your last spell turned out."
"Give me a break! A freaking wolf attacked us in the midst of transporting, so how the hell could this situation have turned out any better? Seriously, I should get a gold medal for how everything turned out."
Deadpanning, "Em, I love you, but you crazy. How the shit balls do you think you deserve a medal for not only endangering our lives, but by, also, bringing a deranged wolf to your mate's pack?"
"It's not like I planned it, but I am actually impressed of myself for completing a portal while under pressure. Therefore, I deserve a freaking medal."
"Pffft," is all Jordan has to say as he exits the house to follow Kaden and Rin.
What? Was it something I said? "Okay, a silver medal at least?" Following him to the backyard, I don't see Rin or Kaden anywhere. I hope they didn't kill each other, because I have no idea where we are at. That.... and I kind of have an inkling of a thing with Kaden. An inkling. It's nothing really. Barely a blob. A dot from the so-called blob. Yeah, that's right. Before I can continue my inner monologue, Rin walks out of the forest... naked.
"Holy shit." Jordan turns around as if caught with his hand in the cookie jar, "Cover up woman!"
"You witches are such prudes with your clothes intact all the time. It's boring."
Snorting, I don't even bother to turn around. I refuse to be intimidated by anyone. "Okay, well good to see at least one of you are alive. So, could you help a girl out and show me the way back?"
Scoffing, "Hell no. First of all, I have no idea where you came from since I didn't arrive until you were already in the house," Oh right, "Secondly, if you did actually travel through a portal then neither Kaden nor I know where you cam from and thirdly, why do you want to leave?"
"Simple. I need to go home. It's getting dark and I'm tired from the festivities of today so before I become a sledangry witch, I would suggest you stop impeding our travels home with stupid questions."
I hadn't realized we were so close until Kaden runs up, fully clothed (sadly), and separates us. "Hey, why are you two fighting now?"
"She wants to go home." Thanks Rin.
"WHAT?"
"Look, I'm tired and about to be sledangry, okay? I just want to go home!!"
Without replying, Kaden sits me down on the grass and looks constipated. "What are you doing Kaden?"
"You obviously hit your head one too many times today, because you're making up words, so I called the doctor."
Laughing uncontrollable, "Oh... my... god." This is too great. Wheezing, "Sleep deprived angry."
"See? You just did it again, except this time you're just not making any sense."
"No no she means sledangry, which is an acronym for sleep deprived angry." Thanks Jordan for helping a sister out, because I cannot stop laughing at the moment.
"What? Who the hell makes up sledangry? It doesn't even sound right." Oh here we go, Kaden always has to be perfect. I barely know him and I've already gathered that.
Jordan puts his hands on his hips, like the drama queen he is. "Whatever, man. Just tell us how to get home." Finally! We are back on subject.
Standing up, I sweep the grass off my clothes the best I can and clap my hands together, "Okay, who is ready to see me create a second portal all in one day?" Looking at my three fellow friends, "No-one? Well, that's a bummer because I am feeling a bit tipsy even though I've had no alcohol. Anyways, I'm feelin a bit crazy. Jordan! Snap out of your stupor and grab our bag of essentials." Jordan finally unfreezes and runs off, thankfully. "Okay, Rin and Kaden, what am I going to do with you two? Eh, stay here if you want to, I don't really care."
Man, it feels great to be back! I feel energized again. Oh, I almost forgot, "Hey Rin, Kaden! If you guys get eaten by a magic black hole, don't blame me okay? Consider this your verbal contract in case something happens to you." Now that we have that covered, it's time to have some fun!
