THE NEXT MORNING AT LIKE 6 AM . . . . . .

(In the Courtyard while two guards and Soren are packing a olden day cart, Ez runs out yelling)

Ez: Where the @#!?$@% is Claudia?! She's not in her Cell! She's not with anyone else! No one knows where she is! What the @#$*?!#@ is going on!?

Soren: *is shooketh* Ezran, calm down she's with me. Also where did you even learn that word?

Ezran: My dad got angry at his advisor and Pip told me about it.

Soren: *disturbed expression* Okaaaaay? Well, yeah, Claudia's with me.

(Claudia comes out from behind Cart)

Claudia: Hey Ezran!

Ezran: *smiles like he's not exactly sure what's going on and waves a little*

(Claudia goes back behind the Cart)

Ez: Uh, Soren? When exactly did you let her out?

Soren: Last night.

Ez: Last ni- Soren you realize she still is a prisoner, right?! So you're telling me she could have gone through the entire castle, found out all our plans, and wrecked them?!

Soren: If she was up all night. She would be tired and yawning or something.

Ez: Don't you know that she still has hot brown morning potion with her.

Soren: *licks lips and face lights up* She does?! *runs over to Claudia*

Ez: *shakes head and sighs*

(Callum walks out front doors)

Ez: Callum! I'm so happy to see you. Uh, Soren let Claudia out last night apparently so there's that.

Callum: *laughs a little* Honestly, maybe Soren should a logic lesson every once in a while. Well, we can't worry to much about that now.

Soren: *pops head out from there side of Cart* I should what?

Callum & Ezran: Nothing!

Ez: *turns to Callum* Where's Rayla?

Callum: She's still asleep. I'm going to wake her up when it's almost time to leave. She shouldn't be in pain longer than she has to be.

Ez: She's really lucky to have you, you know that?

Callum: More like I'm lucky to have her.

Ez: Yep. Great first impression. Tryin to kill you just so that she could show that she could be an assassin. *grins*

Callum: *rolls eyes* Shut up.

Ez: No. I mean, seriously, have you not comprehended the thousand times mom told us "First impressions are everything?"

Callum: SHUT UP!

Ez: I AM YOUR KING!

Callum: I AM YOUR OLDER BROTHER!

Ez: SO?!

Callum: BROTHER TRIUMPHS KING

Callum & Ez: *laughing*

Ez: We never grew up, did we?

Callum: Nope. *Put arm around Ez and watches a guard put the final package into the Cart* But that's just the way we are and I like us for that.

Guard 1: *comes up to Callum and Ez* King Ezran, the transportation is ready and packed. It will be ready to move in about 10 minutes.

Ez: Thank you, Jantieal

Guard 1: My pleasure, sir.

(Guards leaves)

Callum: SIR was it?!

Ez: Cut it out Callum.

Callum: Since when do people call you sir?

Ez: WOW! LOOK AT THE TIME! GO GET RAYLA YOU IDIOT!

Callum: *rolls eyes* Sheesh, Ez. It was just a simple question.

Ez: We're leaving in 10 minutes, Callum.

Callum: *Runs back to front doors, waves and calls* I know!

BACK IN RAYLA AND CALLUM'S ROOM . . . . . . . . .

Rayla: *Looking out window by her bed. Elbow propped on window sill and chin propped on palm*

Rayla: *sharp intake of breath* AH!

Callum: *knocks on door* Rayla?

Rayla: Come in.

Callum: *opens door slowly* Hey, You doing okay?

Rayla: *Sniff, wipes eyes* Yeah, I think so. *starts crying again*

Callum: *comes over, sits on her bed and puts arm around her* It's all going to be okay.

Rayla: It's all just happening so fast and I don't know what to do. *shakes uncontrollably*

Callum: Hey. *Cups her chin so that she is looking into his face* It's all going to be okay. Would I ever break a promise to you? I know this is all happening fast, it is. But so is life. You never have things happening as slow as you want. But there can still be fun. *performs soft aspero blowing the locks of hair out of Rayla's face*

Rayla: *giggles*

Callum: *kisses forehead*

Rayla: That's not how it goes.

Callum: Wha-

Rayla: *holds side of Callum's face*

Callum: *kisses her back*

(Soren, Claudia, and Ez walk in)

Claudia: *eyes go wide and looks super disturbed*

Ez: *covers his eyes and looks like he's trying not to laugh*

Soren: SOOOOO there's this going on, but life's still a-moving and the cart is ready so uh . . . (Rayla and Callum pay no attention) SNAP OUT OF IT! It's painful for us all!

Rayla: *pulls away* Mind your own business, Pea brain.

Soren: Will everybody PLEASE stop insulting my intelligence?

Everyone ('sept Soren): No.

Callum: *Turns around, smiles* Okay, Soren. If everyone is ready. *Stands up and holds out hand to Rayla* Are you ready?

Rayla: *Takes hand and uses it to pull herself up but doesn't let go. Takes his other hand and pulls him close* If  you'll always be there. (AH, I'm sorry, the cringe is real but it's necessary.)

Callum & Rayla: *Stare at each other for few seconds then kiss again*

Soren: WHHHHHHHHHHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!

Callum & Rayla: *laughing hysterically*
