Ted laid his head on the cold wooden desk exhausted beyond belief. His body was sore everywhere and his wounds were barley healing two days after the fight at Fantasyland. All things considered he was in good shape. Dr. Feel-good decided to lecture him some more about his injuries.

"You kids are easily the most frustrating group of people I've ever had to deal with! How do you keep injuring yourselves?!"

"We keep falling down stairs." They had all answered.

Ted chuckled at the memory. They really were all in this together. Also turns out that the group of photographers following them had gotten a bunch of action shots they had planned on using for advertising. They even got paid for them. Money is good. You know what else is good? NOT ALMOST DYING FROM EVIL ROBOTS! Turns out the company that made them, Foghorn Industries, was under fire for the whole ordeal. The bots were all decommissioned and the park is expected to be closed for a bit.

Everyone had gotten back into the rhythm of their lives fairly easily. Steph and Olivia were still a bit scared but all in all they were fine. At least as much as they could be after what happened. His thoughts were interrupted by the intercom.

"Can Theodore Yelawolf, Peterson Romero, James Carim, Evelyn Baldwin, Olivia Scaleless, Lilith Izalith, Stephanie Izalith, Edward Auguste, and Charles Cash please report to the student council room. Thank you."

Ted looked at the intercom and sighed. He grabbed his bag and started his way out of class before his teacher stopped him. Mr. Stone looked at him and Eve worriedly. "Is everything ok?" He asked. Ted felt a chill run down his spine at the normally goofy teacher's serious demeanor. Ted just nodded while Eve shrugged. Mr. Stone took one more look at them and sighed. "Go on ahead."

The two walked down the hall in silence before Ted spotted Steph and Ned walling together down towards the council room. "Yo." Ted greeted. They stopped long enough for them to catch up before continuing towards the room. "You guys know what this is about?" Eve asked. Ned shook his head and Steph just stared at her feet. Ted sighed and decided to just enjoy the silence. They were at their destination soon enough and knocked.

"Come in~"

Ted shuddered at the voice but entered the room regardless. He found the others already sitting around before his eyes fell onto the student council members. Weasly Walker, Corey Locke, Joseph Matters, and Samuel Newton. In the middle was the golden boy himself. Leonard Lionheart III. Ted hadn't talked to him since orientation but he had caught him looking his way in the halls with that shit eating grin.

"Welcome in everyone~ Take a seat wherever you wish." He offered. Ted sat next to Pip who was looking around the massive room in wonder. It looked more like a room out of a mansion than a student council room. The hell kind of finding did this place have? Leonard stood up and walked around the desk so he was standing before everyone.

"Now, you're probably wondering why I asked you all here. Well it is simple, we know about your little crusade against the Demons." Everyone's eyes grew wide. Alert, was now high. Ted turned to face the golden boy who was smirking. "Now now, I don't want a fight. Seems you all are capable enough of that. I simply called you all here for a, chat. Maybe work out a deal." He explained.

Ted gritted his teeth. "You apart of the Demons to?" He asked. Leonard looked offended. "You hurt me Ted. I would never associate myself with those scum. I have a reputation to uphold. I am the King of the West after all."

'King of the West?' Ted wondered.

"As council of West Wood, it is our responsibility to protect the school from those who would do it harm. That includes other schools, thugs, and gangs. Seems that the Demons fall into those categories depending on the person." Corey stated. Her voice was very quiet in a very eerie kind of way.
