Catherine jumps from her couch, back at home where she wanted to be. On her chest laid a note. She reads it.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK6BmzShOBy
Sorry for the sudden teleport back home! Something came up and I didn't want you guys to get involved. Once you get a chance, it's imperative that you come back later. Be safe!
~Verna
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdSlj2qgRE9
"...Okay.." she slips into her coat pocket. Suddenly, a knock on the door. Trudging with a slight limp through her still unfinished apartment, she opens the door. Talia, was on the other side, smiling at her.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcYVcm6ia52
"Oh. Hey Tal."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNhR3aP7Iai
"Hi hi!"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuvwEOKbkNq
"Do you wanna come in or...?"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvHLVwm50in
"Uhm..." Talia takes a peek inside. "If you want me to, I guess?"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7gSuR4KYvs
Catherine opens the door more, allowing her to get in. They walk in the house with careful stepping and maneuveuring onto the lofty couch.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbajdnm6UIu
"Wow, it's like you were barely even here yesterday..."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡehMqAsL1fv
"Heh..." she chuckled, as Talia was somewhat right. "I just didn't want to look bad in front of my best friend..."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJMgv9x2bew
Talia notices a small burn mark on Catherine's leg, from Pierrot's explosion-fest the day before.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsdYuLBiRm8
"...What?"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM2pBosIV5N
"There's...a burn on your leg."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX1bEf0jyPL
"Oh, that! I was being clumsy as hell and burned myself with the damn iron...yeah..."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkRfhyF5PDL
"...Are you okay? You're not as talkative as you usually are.."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNK2zn0xLUV
"I'm fine, it's just a little burn. It'll clear up in a few days."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQChxGQi4eu
"It just...feels like you're hiding something from me..." Talia puts a gentle hand on Catherine's shoulder. "Is there something you need to get off of your chest?"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0wAVfqCnNn
"...I'm fine, I told you."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd5WbL2RcS2
"You're not fine, because the Catherine I know would've told me what's wrong by now.."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxhjSTeAFu1
"Why are you being so damn persistent on finding out?"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhz0ovBSaTA
"So, there is something wrong?"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6Nd4Xgx0K
"No!" Catherine's Gift finally snaps, and she dives into the floor like it was water.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5NU4P4Cz3d
"Catherine!?" Talia asks while looking around the couch.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl1025zg2UM
Catherine peeks her head from inside the floor. "...I guess you're not budging without an explanation, huh?"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPNe4fIY7tG
"No..." Talia says sternly. "No, I'm not."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡetAlszchH7
Catherine pulls herself out entirely, before sitting on the floor.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeT4X8HuDpY
"I'm...a Prodigy.."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhCp7kVXFWq
"...A what?"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwjaooo4IgR
"A time traveler! I'm a time traveler, damnit!"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQxaoZ17qgp
"But...this doesn't make sense..."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5P45L8J2iB
"It didn't make sense to me either. But... yeah. I can phase through stuff and travel through time now."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2QyeZCRi5C
"What's that gotta do with the burn on your leg though?"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡalBgX0NMo3
"Yesterday, me and some others beat this pretty insane jester guy. Had explosives and almost killed us.."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqr4jNMG0LQ
Catherine pulls out the note. "I have to go back today, as a matter of fact.."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUr3OmY3idM
"Oh..."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8EzV3jcL9U
"Now, you might wanna stand back..." Catherine pulls her watch out of her shirt and begins to do the ritual.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDcqRVrkRbh
A strong breeze of wind dashes past them. A dazzling blue light begins to form. Talia, wide-eyed, watches as the time warp opens up for Catherine to jump into.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKgh150CsrM
"I'm gonna go now. Don't screw up anything while I'm gone."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYBr75EBrQT
And just as Catherine hops, she feels Talia grab her hand, and they both fall through, back into the Time Realm.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlOIMtkNWKM
Catherine frantically looks for her friend.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZofjxnUiAl
"Tal! What the hell?!"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ym4bQ3GU0
"Sorry, sorry!" Talia apologized, getting up. "I was just so curious, you know?"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjLUCZwdpyg
"You've gotta go back. I'm not letting you get killed because you decided to follow me!"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDSfWLmREMK
"Hello again...Catherine..." Nathaniel makes himself known, not far behind from where they were standing. "And might thou be?"
He looks towards Talia with less hostility.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmzaEV7MeU3
Catherine could hear Talia's heart pitter-patter out of her chest.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbT7IIHW2Nl
"Uhm...Talia?"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzPboIgrVL1
Talia didn't respond. She was too focused on his face to. Catherine snaps her fingers in front of her face, trying to wake her up.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpYosRTssPF
"... People from thy time are...strange.."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDiZeyD09vv
"I know...just don't mind her.."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTOBHr0OKdm
"...Well, shall we return to our sanctuary?"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs3kD7bgFWa
"Is that what we're calling it?"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTijEjNStHm
"For now.." He walks off.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ef2M7Dnlq
Catherine began to follow him, but Talia pulls her aside.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLNd4IyhKoF
"My heart is about to beat out of my chest..."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTG7tQkKAN
"I've noticed.." Catherine pulls her arm from Talia's. "I'm sending you back now... don't tell anyone about this..."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4WzexX7on7
Talia peeks over her shoulder.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQQhVx2M0L
"Tal!" Catherine places both of her hands on her face and forces her to look at her.
"I'm serious! Don't tell a damn soul!"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRPOTwfgZl9
"Okay! Jeez.."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ449mD4HCm6
"Good.." Catherine pulls out her watch and begins to open the time warp. "Now hurry."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtXyQrJoOSM
The warp opens, the dazzling blue gleam flickered on their faces.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSCH8x8sCrc
"See you tomorrow?"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkyNdZM8NVd
"Maybe..."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMfly9evkBI
Talia walks through, disappearing from the Time Realm.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtWgClzfPM6
"Catherine.." Nathaniel's voice echoed. "Can thou go any slower?"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBCpk6O0cBQ
"I'm coming.."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGPLLfakMMv
The duo makes it to the sanctuary, where the other half of the Prodigies, Isabelle, Ezra and Arsenio, were chatting with each other. Their conversation was put on hold when Catherine and Nathaniel walked in.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKHjRSEpan0
"H-Hello Catherine...Nathaniel.." Isabelle said, sitting on her bed.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ74eOeSCTXZ
"Yes, very nice to see you two again." Ezra added.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZOdGfXL1eH
Arsenio was laid back, sipping a drink.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlBoFgAKSji
"...What are we talking about?"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjF1GQTGUgN
"W-we were talking a-about A-Arsenio's handcuffs...and some ways to get them off.."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwqdlIcOtuf
"Yep." he takes another sip. "I've tried unscrewing them, but they're still locked tight."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyGbsjVGvrq
Arsenio pulls out a handful of screws and pours them onto the bed.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHplWu8TaVj
"I'm pretty sure I took every single one out. It might be something on the inside that prevents someone from taking it off by disassembly."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqbmnzImBd5
"Prodigies!"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAGRM84REEQ
The door opens once again, and Verna's frantic face was on the other side.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1U5rOTw4Aj
"Someone just went through a time warp!"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv8gkypzrwC
"And?"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjwrfsYPpcO
"I suspect it's a normal person!"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBGvkZhH1ey
"... Catherine.." Nathaniel states angrily at her.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtOrP2e9pF5
"...Oh crap.." Catherine pulls out her phone and calls Talia.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ60IWcqlOuz
"Catherine!"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsICmOTMtLx
"Tal! Are you alright?!"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDhgdaiXbpe
"I don't know! I'm in the middle of nowhere! Where the hell am I?!"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmlKysUe2EC
"Stay calm, we're on our way, just...hide and stay quiet."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwgN2QDXnP4
All eyes were on her.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1EIDolroeB
"I...might've sent Talia to a dimension instead of home..."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBx5qcPqcTz
"Well then, hurry! I managed to pinpoint the dimension's location and I don't know when a Timebreaker will appear.." Verna turns to Ezra. "You have to stay here, for your safety."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcCzVZVhhim
"Okay, just make it back with Isabelle.."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrpuq0t9Xz8
"I-I promise I'll be okay.."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡArqAaL1Byh
"Good." Ezra waves them away.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQfqhQAtHaj
The Prodigies jump from their relaxing positions and bolts into a time warp opened by Verna.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0wDqqJDtMk
On the other side, another Timebreaker was already starting to terrorize Talia. Its arm, covered in vines and flowers, hand and tree-like fingers gripped onto Talia with relative ease.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKypYIpBQ6P
"Talia!"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC3CeMwiGJU
"Catherine! H-Help!"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu56P2y3K6g
The Timebreaker finally showed itself to the Prodigies. Venus the Timeblossom, carried Talia to the middle of the dimension.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmCEqy61gDi
"Poor girl..." The Timebreaker whispered. "She doesn't even understand what is happening."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjwLAosLm4o
"Catherine, distract her..."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMEtK8kV1y6
"Why do I have to?"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGp6wKdppyV
"Thou have no ways of attacking, thou will only hurt thyself.."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8JuGFBxM88
"...Fine." Catherine attempts to phase through the platform they were standing on, but she didn't seep through..
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7GM6j4DIx8
"Of course the moment I need to use this damn thing, I can't!"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzayuDoW3tt
"You can't fall here.." Verna explained. "You'll have to find some other way to get her attention."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI9mJeVabtZ
"Oi! Flower lady! Let my friend go!"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3pb1HxZqEL
"But she's so delicate..." Venus begins to tug at her clothes. "And it seems your friends are keen on attacking me.."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9CDktsxvfN
Vines unearthed themselves and begins to attack the other Prodigies.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxnYuEnRgWF
"This new flower of mine. I shall keep it.."
Venus places Talia in her flower crown, stuffed in between other flowers and plants aplenty.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ42lA1i2l0V
"I would really love to stay, but I have a home and family to get back to!"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMqjglMW1dh
"Now... I'll need to do something about the weeds..."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvND8HIEVkm
She cups her hands and blows into them, allowing glowing dust to fly into the air...and into the Prodigies faces...
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH0HaYDTuMZ
Nathaniel, Isabelle and Arsenio were blown away from the air and pollen blasting into their faces..
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVPA2aZplZI
Isabelle, who seemed to be fine from the impact, sneezed abruptly.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm4zJmDFsjY
"Bless you, Izzy.." Dawlly said, pulling itself from her pocket with a tissue.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw60ycOsN0n
"T-thank you..." taking the tissue and cleaning her nose.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVQEadU2tMR
The other two hadn't gotten up yet, until the girls had their backs turned..
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX4VgAqyqq7
"Catherine! Something's off about Nathaniel!" Talia said from afar. "He looks angry about something!"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtuw8goH48Q
"Eh?" she turns around after picking Isabelle up. "Nate? Is something the matter with you?"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9doIReu0BC
"This is another part of my abilities...I have amplified their emotions with my spores.."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeqs34vo8Qf
Nathaniel and Arsenio slowly stand up, clearly affected by the pollen that was thrown into their faces.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1HavpfSGfy
Nathaniel responded with anger, where he leaps at Catherine as she jumps back.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOUwPa4HXK5
"Nate! What the hell did I do?!" she screamed as she ran.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiy2qIszMHh
As for Arsenio...he ran straight for Isabelle. But as Nathaniel was trying to kill Catherine where she stood, he tried to... cuddle with her?
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGwreNBcnz8
"D-Dawlly! Help!"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOVR8iDHXWZ
"I'm trying, but he won't budge!"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiggLUxJ6cC
"Why would I? She's so warm.."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC06UyJ6coH
The two girls try their best to fight them off.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOYuaWWIDM4
"Verna! A little help here?!"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH5gIyPQ7jx
Verna appears and clears her throat...
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUpg3R5Gr5k
"Tempus: Cessatio!"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA58rG3lhjn
Time stops, but this time Catherine and Isabelle can move...
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyJKUGF8awS
Catherine breathes heavily. Isabelle slips through Arsenio's arms and runs towards them.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg2VQe7XcxJ
"Okay...we need to come up with a plan. Right now, before Nathaniel cuts me to pieces and Arsenio...cuddles Isabelle to death?"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkzjz1PiSEl
"W-what has h-happened to them? And why aren't w-we affected?"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrgrGJU233o
"Obviously.." Catherine states, "... it's because we're the same gender as her..."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQdzeYKQI8i
"B-but...how do we stop them?"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNrm1tEdA1w
"We beat the hell out of them until they come to their senses, of course."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNlpEKjJxAf
"B-but..." "I-I don't want to hurt them...t-they're our allies..."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyhsYbtooUH
"C-Can we hurry this conversation along? I can't hold onto time much longer.." Verna says, straining.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8YMmZzSJVa
"Just hit him hard enough to where he's back to normal.."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiePkeHmoWO
Isabelle hesitates, then nods. "O-okay.."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6GWM3l08Ci
Verna releases time from it's frozen state, the boys rushed towards them.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOolwWo35fd
"Hey Nate!" Catherine taunts. "Come on, you have to run a little faster than that!"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP4Tpm9o4kj
As if on cue, he seemed to runs three times faster. Just as she planned.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHXUuvnwKE
"Hah! Dumbass!" While he's still running towards her, Catherine holds a leg out and trips him. He immediately falls face first into the ground.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ31MatEOD12
As Nathaniel's pulling himself up however, Catherine holds him down with one knee, and both arms behind him.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwecXJaBrho
"Now, snap the hell out of it!"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0DjanK0b1o
She slowly feels his body slip from under her. Suddenly, the tables had turned.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSbd4PvgzGz
"...Alright alright, let's just talk about this, okay? First, I'm sorry for tripping you..."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0tG5Ydu2YL
Nathaniel calls upon his Gift and prepares the fatal blow, the thin, sharp point just inches away from her face.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI3jvXmxFo7
"O-okay! Alright! No need to get aggressive! Just...put away the sword-shield thing.."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ25WRNacXTT
No matter how much she tried to negotiate, it didn't seem like he was switching back to normal. With an arm raised, he swiftly jabs down. Catherine just managed to move out of his attack.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhzKpRBTCyu
"Alright, that's it, I'm gonna use my foolproof escape plan!"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7sC3Au7EwC
"There is only one way out of this, Catherine. Dea-"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEwO80MqrDA
Nathaniel feels something press against his nose, catching him off guard. Catherine tried to catch him off guard by... poking his nose.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw3ZIfpHecU
"Boop." She said playfully.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6OkYaoKtiZ
"What did you just..."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBKeCh5J0ow
His face scrunches up.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjqbJ6wA7Wk
"...Nate. Don't you d-"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Kc3iiMoVr
Nathaniel finally lets out a sneeze, which thankfully, reverts him back to normal.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbSXiwjmqTd
"Nathaniel! That's gross as hell!" Catherine's screams, wiping the germs from her face. "Also, get the hell off of me!"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxVOED0oOj7
Nathaniel quickly gets up, dusts himself off, and pulls Catherine to her feet.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbby5q8Lm1Z
"Hey Isabelle! You just have to make Arsenio sneeze!"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjISgYlJLZO
"I-I would m-make him sneeze if I h-had the u-use of my arms!"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBasinhUalD
"Has thou tried struggling?"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJnZBcISwKw
"He j-just keeps hugging t-tighter!"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxwMgH4qqBi
"...Shake your head, Isabelle."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj6GGGtkTwY
"H-hm?"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsXQ2wLqS2U
"If he's behind you, you can tickle his nose with your hair...I think.."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyjPwKVHR0Z
"A-Arsenio..."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGL6M6DbomS
"Mhm?"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmH3FqurzlF
Isabelle begins to shake her head in a vigorous manner.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlk1l9RXTxX
"Aww..."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVCUyPHDiYx
"No! Y-You're supposed to sneeze!"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7xRHn0GRKX
"But I don't want to sneeze on you..."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXaXGvD2edy
Isabelle tries making Arsenio sneeze again with the same strategy, to no avail.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvODAzeAlP
"Dawlly! Y-You can do your ability!
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC7FG0h8qWm
"Alright, no one snuggles with Izzy and gets away with it!" Dawlly said angrily. With a strong tug of the thread, Isabelle's expression grew to anger. Large amounts of thread spilled from every inch of her body to wrap around Arsenio's arms.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrUdmEFo62a
"Get... the hell off of me...you pansy pillock!"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡskUd1kQ9Nz
"Oooh...I like you better when you're ang-"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkB6d12RuM1
More threads wrapped themselves around his face.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡho7ruSRCjf
"Shut up..." She pulls her pair of scissors out of her pocket.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmQa8KNctmi
"We just needed him to release her, Dawlly. Please, return her to normal."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvfbJBjjjCW
Suddenly, Isabelle drops to the floor.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUE4HfmbIKJ
"Can't have you murdering him apparently, Izzy."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUcJ7oa4pPE
Isabelle gets up, lightly clenching the space around her heart, and looking up at Arsenio somberly.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqww6o24NuV
"I-I'm s-sorry Arsenio, but it had to be d-done..."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8uNsVYpZO0
"Just don't forget you have him tied up.."
Dawlly said, slipping back into her pocket.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKmjrVA19bY
"We're gonna go get Talia, and we'll come back." Catherine and Nathaniel push forward towards Venus.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMb7rPYcBb9
"I'll k-keep Arsenio company u-until he s-sneezes..."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvmK0Ej19Q4
"Good. Catherine, thou shall come with me to catch Talia and send her back home as originally intended..."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqYdfPrfRok
"Yeah yeah..."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ18AaEWTNMg
Nathaniel walks towards Venus in an intimidating manner.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnONHgCJrxA
"Do you have a death wish, Prodigy?"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlxIBEUTJUR
"I'm hoping thou would release that innocent young lady from thy grasp."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Umrt69b6X
"...If you so desire."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsvrg3DrK4F
Softly, Venus pulls Talia from her flower crown and tosses her into Nathaniel's arms.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjWdtqvikwR
"...H-Hi..."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKWx8PdIivx
"Catherine. Take her home."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP6mcABPPG0
"I've got it this time, I swear."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm7pj3aCktr
Slowly, Catherine does the time traveling ritual back home. Nathaniel puts Talia down.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKVhIqjCxZO
"Okay, before I go in, are you absolutely sure this is going home?"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9LhAvdVa86
"Uhhh.."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4xwmQqvNjS
Verna stares at the warp for a second.
"Yep, that goes back to 2022."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCJG7hT8EnH
"Bye, for real this time." Catherine chuckled.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSjxIgwmAMj
"Bye!" Talia hugs Catherine. "Don't die on me, okay? I don't know what I'd do without you..."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLmP2KKfpsH
"I can't really promise that, but I'll try, for you."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKko78lnox9
"...Come back every once in a while, okay?"

"Alright! Get out of here, before something else comes here!"

"Okay! Okay!" Talia pulls herself off and walks into the time warp. It then closes.

"Prodigies. Before you go." Venus' voice was very soft but stern. "There is something I must tell you."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeqewmNIHF8
"Yeah? What is it?"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR7EnYMG6IL
"...Something or someone is doing this to us. Turning us...into these monsters. I'm just breaking from the trance, but I only have a little time...Pierrot and the other Timebreakers. We were all Prodigious like you. Something overtook us. Be careful, because if you see it...it is too late for you.."

A time warp appears behind Venus, she drags herself through it, never to be seen again.

"...Nate, you know the most Prodigy stuff out of all of us. What was she talking about? What is that it?"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvnypszBFdx
"I am...not quite sure myself. What or whoever it is, however, they are pure evil.."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVkU1OifHhn
"Catherine. Nathaniel. A-Arsenio's back to normal...I-I think..."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAA4GaEXIMz
"He better be!" Dawlly adds. "I won't hesitate to make her cut him open!"
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrMBBNBiUdO
Muffled by the amount of thread covering his mouth, Arsenio responds. "I think I'm okay...just a little confused on how I got in this situation.."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLeuaC1XDdv
Isabelle twiddles her fingers. "Let's n-not talk a-about it..."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp3Ogyal4JL
"Yeah, let's not. Whatever I did must've been really uncomfortable, so I'd like to apologize...as soon as I'm let go."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYNPcQWFWqa
"A-Ah! I'm sorry!" The threads loosen, and Arsenio is let free.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKXVNshBZA3
Arsenio jokingly clears his throat and takes a deep breath.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOeD0xhbGXz
"I'm sorry for making you feel uncomfortable."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9bL2wGg73q
"Y-You don't need to apologize...it wasn't in your c-control..."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFIHWLawawH
"Yeah, but...I still feel bad. I mean, I know I like to charm girls and all, but I'm not gonna be disrespectful."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwVmt8VcGD9
"...O-okay then..I-I forgive you, Arsenio.."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVH0ncjJWCv
Arsenio gives Isabelle a light pat on the head. "Great, we're friends again."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb0Zc9a4Q0B
"Kids." Verna appears. "Today, please? We have a lot to do tomorrow and I want you guys to be well rested." she hurried.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzidx8e4bV1
"We're on our way, jeez..." Catherine returned.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEqkLvDFoTp
Verna creates a time warp, and the Prodigies return to the Sanctuary.
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw00819RhmH
"E-Ezra, we're back.."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡogpJlGf4WI
"Welcome back. I made some food for us, I'm sure you four are hungry after the adventure you've had."
452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfSAK8iJ4gt
She places a lavish meal in front of them, which the Prodigies promptly ate. After chatting a bit and some quiet time, the Prodigies all fell asleep in their appropriate beds. Except for Catherine, of course.

Something was keeping her up. Not her writing notebook, but an itchy pain on her neck. Maybe she had an allergic reaction to the pollen after all...
