Thea drug herself into the dorm room. Soaking from the shower, with a large bag of clothes in her right hand. She threw herself onto her bed and groaned.

"I still don't understand why you have your skills practice so late," Brook sat up.

"I think," Thea sat up, "they're trying to kill me."

"Funny."

"Oh yeah, I just thought it was hilarious."

Brooklyn rolled her eyes at the comment, "Well we should be getting to bed. Tomorrow is Parent Visit day."

"Eh," Thea shrugged, "I'll be fine."

"Tell that to your father when you're half asleep at breakfast."

"Hey, that only happened one time."

"Goodnight," Brooklyn sang before tucking herself into sleep.

Thea rolled her eyes, It's only been a month and their coming to check on us already? Seems sketchy.

It was now six in the morning and the students were getting out of bed.

"I'm so ready!"

"To see your dad?"

"That, and to show him how the training is going," Tau sat down on his bed, and began to put on his shoes.

"Oh right," Alek nodded. "Forgot that was your big mission."

"It's not like I'm not happy that I became friends with you guys," Tau stood up. "A prince must know when to put work in front of friends and vis versa."

"Yeah, yeah. You've told us before," Castor nodded.

"I'm glad you guys understand," Tau smiled.

"As long as you wait for us, we have no issue," Alek nodded.

Meanwhile...

"You happy to see father?" Echo asked her sister.

"I guess so," Leanne shrugged. "You?"

"A little. Maybe he'll bring my-"

"He won't," Castiel came into the conversation. Surprisingly, throughout that month, the family hasn't tried to kill each other.

"And why would he not?" Echo crossed her arms.

"Because it's a rule. He won't break the rules unless he has to of it is of benefit to him."

"And what's to say it isn't benefitial to him to bring me my-"

"Cas is right. He wouldn't do that," Leanne agreed.

"Fine, but at least he can tell me how she is."

Meanwhile...

"So, how stoked are you guys to see your parents again?" Artemis asked the girls.

Nicole shrugged, "I don't know. I guess it's cool?"

"I'm excited to tell my dad all the things that have been happening, but I'm not too psyched." Toni explained.

"Same. I find it a little odd they're coming back so soon," Artemis agreed.

The girls just nodded and left the dorm. Everyone was already out and waiting. Chatting with one another, seeing as they weren't going to see each other until that night (unless their parents got together).

"We ready?" Thea asked. They all were ready and left for the courtyard.
