"But we already did this. It seems redundant and pointlessly repetitive to do it again," I try to argue. "Fine but don't be surprised if you wake up with your eyebrows missing or something," Rina retorts. "I hate you so much right now." "Is this you saying yes?" "I don't wanna but it seems I don't have much of a choice. If Jacob wants war, then he's gonna get a war." "Find your face paint and water guns, Mira, cause we're going back to war." "Yay." "Say it with more enthusiasm," she scolds. She keeps glaring at me until finally I repeat it, this time just slightly louder. She seems satisfied and leaves the room. I know right then and there that I'm going to regret this. <><><><><><><><> As always, history repeats itself. Even though they're older, things haven't changed much for Rina, Mira, Jay, and Jacob. They're still very childish and lazy and still love pulling pranks on each other. Once again these four idiots decide to start something that none of them can finish; a prank war.
