Sorry for the wait! Here you go! Enjoyyyyyy!!!!!

It was time to set everything in motion. Aranea knew what he needed to do. And the first thing to do is handle his little sister. Her stand on the student council is nothing of amazement. When school was beginning no one had volunteered for the position so having votes were not a thing. Therefore, he needed to creat a commotion. He stepped into the classroom of the teacher in charge of the council and it's activities.

"Excuse me sir,"

"Hm? Ah Aranea how may I help you?"

This was it.

"I would like to set up a vote,"

"Vote whatever for?"

"To be the student council president,"

"But your little sister is already on the spot. You want to take that from her?"

"I do not believe you understand the circumstances surrounding her current status. You realize she won that position due to the lack of candidates willing to stand up against her. No one was in play and no one was encouraged enough to try. But not this time. Now that I am here. Now that I know how this school operates, I would like to make this fair. It's fair for the students as well the candidates even if we are siblings. Please, I would like to do this with your permission,"

The teacher rubbed his neck, and stared at the boy that stood before him. His gaze was straight up to him. His body was in a stance of strength. His head was held up high, but not as if he was looking dowm on the one before him, but keeping him at his own place. He saw potential and it was something that he wanted to see blssom.

"Very well...tomorrow I will announce this to the student council-"

"My sister already knows, however it's best to let the school know before the council,"

"Why do you say that?"

"If you tell the council first, who'se to say that they won't tell others beforehand and cause chaos? I think it's best to organize in a manner rhat will keep things under control within our hands,"

"I..see... you're already going farther ahead with everything..."

"Yes I am. It's best to think ahead a bit. After all isn't that what most great leaders do?"

The teacher could not argue back. He decided to follow Aranea's instructions and waited for the next morning announcements.

Meanwhile, Jake sat in the library on his own with his project. He was rather upset that Aranea had brushed him off, and left to do whatever. Their project was now going to be something that isn't as good as the last couple of ones that had done together. Ever since the incident with the coach, however, he noticed that his behavior began to change. But why? What was wrong with him? He had even asked Dirk who merely just told him to let his friend have some space. He might as well leave him to his own exploits, until he brings himself to him. He sighs and closes up his text book. This project was going nowhere with his mind focused on the boy.  He decides to give up on the assignment for the day and makes his way to the school roof. Once he arrives he looks up to find Vriska standing on her own at the fence with her thumb in between her teeth. She was muttering words that were inaudible to him, but nonetheless she seemed trouble.

"Vriska...Serket..."

The girl turns to him and sneers in disgust.

"If it isn't the man of the hour, Jake English. What the hell do you fucking want?"

"I just wanted to sit down and relax for a bit before school let's out,"

"Really, and what about class?"
