The almost empty plain was an excellent view for the stars. The small caravan that Liza had fixed up, which is where she now 'lived', what placed around a hundred metres from the actual house in which the Fox twins lived in.

Clay and Liza sat on the top of the caravan watching the little bright stars on the dark sky. It was a moonless night, so Liza stumbled onto her sleeping bag as she returned with popcorn refills.

"Thank you..." Clay laughed as he helped himself to the small amount of scattered pile of popcorn that fell out of the bowl.

"Haha," Liza mocked as she placed the bowl in between them and lay on top of her sleeping bag. The early night was much to hot to have any form of blanket on them.

"Next time we'll see this sky will be mid-term." Clay said with a mouthful of popcorn.

Liza cuddled a pillow. "Next time we'll see this sky we'll be in Year Seven!" She rolled to her side and smiled into Clays face. "We're in Year Seven! Finally! Can you believe it!"

Clay rolled his eyes. "Yea I can. But you won't be if you don't keep up your grades this year, you barely made it last year." he said sternly.

Liza groaned. "Yeah, yeah, I will." she leaned back onto the propped up pillow. "Anyways, Aaron says his 'older' friends say in Year Seven, everything changes, your friends, your grades, everything."

Clay shrugged. "I mean, it can't be that drastic. Plus, we'll stay friends, and the only grades I hope will change are yours."

Liza chuckled. "Alright Mr. Morington, I will try my hardest."

"You said that last year."

Liza made a face. "Nah..." she then chucked a popcorn towards Clays nose. "Also, has something else changed?"

Clay frowned. "What?"

Liza glanced at the sky. "I don't know...maybe...do you still have a crush on Macy?" She gave out a small laugh when he groaned.

"Liza, yes, I do still like her, you have to stop asking me that."

"I really don't, only at the start of each term!" Liza insisted.

Clay shook his head in amusement. "Alright." They were quiet for a big before Clay spoke again. "Have you packed everything?"

Liza punched him playfully. "Yes I have Clay, you've asked me that 14 times tonight!"

"Alright, I don't want you asking me to borrow a tie when we get to school."

Liza frowned with a smile. "When have I done that?"

They had taken the bus to the main town and then managed to drag their bags to the city park where Macy was going to pick them up in her rolling castle to school.

Liza sat down in exhaustion. "Ahh...I'm so unfit,"

Clay stretched his arms. "I told you. You should've joined me in my morning exercise on school break." Liza fumed and leaned back on the bench. Clay looked around. "Macy should be here in 3 minutes."

Liza glanced around the park. It was rather empty. "Well, kids these days."

Clay smirked. "Says you. You didn't like this park when you were a kid."

Liza shook her head in disagreement as Macy's rolling fortress came up.

"Sup Year Sevens!" called Macy as the ramp came down on the pavement.

Liza stood up and dragged her case up the ramp. Clay proceeded to do the same.

Macy greeted them properly and help them adjust their cases as the castle began to move toward Knighton Academy.
