Now...

Grace is in the school library reading a fantasy book with a flying book, a dragon and a silhouette of a person. The door suddenly throws open and Ace grins childishly at her. Grace don't bother to look up until a book hits the table in front of her, along with a light landing of a piece of worksheet.

"Help please," Ace grins. Grace sighs in exasperation and bookmarks the page she is at and place it beside the textbook." Why don't you ask Leo?" she asks as she reads the worksheet and notice that it was from a week ago.

"Oh he's busy, besides, you know how he loves the attention," Ace chuckles, Grace rolls her eyes, it's not like she cared anyway, she wasn't that close to him too but Ace is another story." How did you even know I was here?" she asks," don't tell me you frequent the library," she snorts.

"Oh Karie told me," Ace grins sheepishly. Grace hums in acknowledgement and gestures for her to seat as she explains how to do the questions.

Meanwhile in another world...

"Come in commander, I'm in position," a little boy replies and makes engine noises. Unbeknownst to him, a crack has formed near his house because his drunken mother tempering with things she shouldn't have and the next day, the police and paramedics are all over the place.

Back to the school on the other side of the planet...

Grace is just walking to the cafeteria to grab a drink when suddenly, time seems to stop. Instead of looking round, she look up, as if she knew something was coming and it did. Something was falling... and screaming, Grace instinctively raises her hands up and catches the falling object which surprised her because she is normally bad at captain's ball and ace at dodge ball.

She didn't think it was possible to be more surprised as the 'ball' in her hands moved. Grace didn't believe her hands until she look down and realise that the ball was too soft to be a sports equipment and stares at the ball of gray fur. At first her reaction was: 'Who dares throw a cat?!' Until the cat yawns and open their eyes and smile at Grace.

"Thank you!" Grace blinks and looks around, she half expected to see a boy or girl (it was hard to tell) somewhere but she notice that the people in the cafeteria aren't moving. Grace blankly looks back at the cat who should be called kitten actually given the size. The cat smiles and jumps off her palm, making her jolt.

"Cya," they reply and dashes off. Grace blinks again, she feels like she is in a trance, not knowing whether her imagination has gone against her and made her hallusinate or a kitten just talk, twice. Grace was beginning to wonder what gender that voice was when a tap to the shoulder shook her out of her thought.

"Yo," Angel, another friend of Grace's from another class grins," What's up? Aren't you late for class?" Angel asks, Grace eyes widen and quickly walks to class because she isn't good with running either.

After school...

As the bell rings, Grace and Karie smiles at Angel as they wait for her at the cafeteria.

"How was lesson today?" Karie asks with a shy tone," I still think that history is a hard subject," Angel replies." What is wrong with history?" Ace asks out of nowhere... well the corner of a building at the traffic light.

"It's boring! It's the same old story all over again," Angel replies. Grace wince, knowing how she felt about the subject," If half of the class paid attention, maybe Mr Jones wouldn't have to repeat them again," Ace sneers." Sorry," Angel says quickly," You're right," she replies, Ace nods in satisfaction." You guys are alright, but Grace probably forgot about our date," she teases.

"Eek! I forgot sorry!" Grace exclaims." It's no biggie," Ace grins and cuts between Karie and Grace, earning a frown from Karie." So, do you guys normally hang out or what? Can I join?" Ace asks cheekily.

"No, we just walk each other home," Grace grins, Karie and Angel seem a little uncomfortable but after they walk to the other side of the road, Grace felt it again, except she is not alone." What the-" Ace mutters as time seem to stop around them.

"You two," a male sounding person calls, both of them look around in confusion." Down here," Grace jumps as the voice sounds closer and looks down with Ace, to see a spaniel puppy, they look at it blankly...

"Oi, are you two deaf or what?" the words that came out of the puppy's mouth is foreign to them even if the puppy is clearly speaking English." Who-" Ace starts," My name is Ticker and I'm a messenger from Lux and I have come to save your realm," he replies proudly.

Ace and Grace don't know what he had to be proud of, this is definitely a dream but is the other having the same dream?
