Catherine jumps from her couch, back at home where she wanted to be. On her chest laid a note. She reads it.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTxIZGJGYxU
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
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdh1qS7uLQP
"...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.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbTvHPQKTlh
"Oh. Hey Tal."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2BL57SlJj3
"Hi hi!"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKxDiBPLmD6
"Do you wanna come in or...?"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeY7jiOkZ1l
"Uhm..." Talia takes a peek inside. "If you want me to, I guess?"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBEJgSysYNo
Catherine opens the door more, allowing her to get in. They walk in the house with careful stepping and maneuveuring onto the lofty couch.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCjhYiQ7qEd
"Wow, it's like you were barely even here yesterday..."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUd5bYie2IG
"Heh..." she chuckled, as Talia was somewhat right. "I just didn't want to look bad in front of my best friend..."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1rPagLhDzc
Talia notices a small burn mark on Catherine's leg, from Pierrot's explosion-fest the day before.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqckLGTZtj3
"...What?"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwbrpbWmYHe
"There's...a burn on your leg."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo0W3Hw62d2
"Oh, that! I was being clumsy as hell and burned myself with the damn iron...yeah..."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVs17v1jbIs
"...Are you okay? You're not as talkative as you usually are.."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ImMvhlEjz
"I'm fine, it's just a little burn. It'll clear up in a few days."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrhEjxhY6Hb
"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?"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhaliYybZca
"...I'm fine, I told you."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbpsdGgBDuD
"You're not fine, because the Catherine I know would've told me what's wrong by now.."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsKp2h2zVfh
"Why are you being so damn persistent on finding out?"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡixDJsx9rVV
"So, there is something wrong?"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRqFHn7H8C0
"No!" Catherine's Gift finally snaps, and she dives into the floor like it was water.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz3GiHo1O59
"Catherine!?" Talia asks while looking around the couch.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeOKJWchWnd
Catherine peeks her head from inside the floor. "...I guess you're not budging without an explanation, huh?"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFzoF2pb3mW
"No..." Talia says sternly. "No, I'm not."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbRGCCPxMCZ
Catherine pulls herself out entirely, before sitting on the floor.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYih9OoCVho
"I'm...a Prodigy.."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxsQYT7xjqO
"...A what?"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6uM3Er5ePD
"A time traveler! I'm a time traveler, damnit!"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsU9sei3nWL
"But...this doesn't make sense..."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7wJcLWdkqi
"It didn't make sense to me either. But... yeah. I can phase through stuff and travel through time now."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6DfYmloc9x
"What's that gotta do with the burn on your leg though?"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpEjc6vzQUw
"Yesterday, me and some others beat this pretty insane jester guy. Had explosives and almost killed us.."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB4PIUEgvbZ
Catherine pulls out the note. "I have to go back today, as a matter of fact.."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0yz1O5eWsC
"Oh..."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTbiBleLSlE
"Now, you might wanna stand back..." Catherine pulls her watch out of her shirt and begins to do the ritual.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrimBQWnY5D
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.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK5xmnXN2hV
"I'm gonna go now. Don't screw up anything while I'm gone."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbQ6Rl9zhMi
And just as Catherine hops, she feels Talia grab her hand, and they both fall through, back into the Time Realm.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmYT1K6nVhe
Catherine frantically looks for her friend.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCgOlCRcXib
"Tal! What the hell?!"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡehDwgUnz62
"Sorry, sorry!" Talia apologized, getting up. "I was just so curious, you know?"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8z1xbI6ZpC
"You've gotta go back. I'm not letting you get killed because you decided to follow me!"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7AykwVt1Ll
"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.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV0slq8r2Nf
Catherine could hear Talia's heart pitter-patter out of her chest.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyjlDWskCTM
"Uhm...Talia?"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs1s4MUn4L3
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.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV50QiON1YJ
"... People from thy time are...strange.."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7V399HaADW
"I know...just don't mind her.."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWuOuykiyxr
"...Well, shall we return to our sanctuary?"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR9XsxaN085
"Is that what we're calling it?"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6XaSX27FgD
"For now.." He walks off.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4XoSBDSNBj
Catherine began to follow him, but Talia pulls her aside.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmeMYeZmHUZ
"My heart is about to beat out of my chest..."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY7GbWxvj8R
"I've noticed.." Catherine pulls her arm from Talia's. "I'm sending you back now... don't tell anyone about this..."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqiM1G8KZie
Talia peeks over her shoulder.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ2A1PC7CEN
"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!"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU11TbibikU
"Okay! Jeez.."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgkwEOv9xW9
"Good.." Catherine pulls out her watch and begins to open the time warp. "Now hurry."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjhLTHvbMr9
The warp opens, the dazzling blue gleam flickered on their faces.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPgZMhg9Msu
"See you tomorrow?"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ86jJWhLbdg
"Maybe..."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9mJjURRxZg
Talia walks through, disappearing from the Time Realm.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAR7brnwHW7
"Catherine.." Nathaniel's voice echoed. "Can thou go any slower?"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKJD4459UN8
"I'm coming.."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeOl94kve6J
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.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡysGuN0dTBJ
"H-Hello Catherine...Nathaniel.." Isabelle said, sitting on her bed.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡorXe1gA9Hx
"Yes, very nice to see you two again." Ezra added.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSpShxZMQYq
Arsenio was laid back, sipping a drink.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS6ReZVLoNX
"...What are we talking about?"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5wWLt4rD4u
"W-we were talking a-about A-Arsenio's handcuffs...and some ways to get them off.."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡONICCZvAYx
"Yep." he takes another sip. "I've tried unscrewing them, but they're still locked tight."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX0raN8cBSK
Arsenio pulls out a handful of screws and pours them onto the bed.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ56QWB40wKQ
"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."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlYooR6jhW4
"Prodigies!"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡROfNAHNEwe
The door opens once again, and Verna's frantic face was on the other side.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrRT5C1aZ3h
"Someone just went through a time warp!"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡecmFnSzrHW
"And?"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOLUdyfe1Dn
"I suspect it's a normal person!"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0QBiD7rdbN
"... Catherine.." Nathaniel states angrily at her.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHPykLgX5ty
"...Oh crap.." Catherine pulls out her phone and calls Talia.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdFnP4FKwwv
"Catherine!"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYfO0V2vPCp
"Tal! Are you alright?!"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzGH2jBsmc6
"I don't know! I'm in the middle of nowhere! Where the hell am I?!"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8s2H9tR8AQ
"Stay calm, we're on our way, just...hide and stay quiet."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡikFlP0VjLP
All eyes were on her.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ6fkaTTfLw
"I...might've sent Talia to a dimension instead of home..."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFla8ERUxup
"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."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpJ4Bi2Q82y
"Okay, just make it back with Isabelle.."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqPuT4D8wZ2
"I-I promise I'll be okay.."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyCkGKqap1A
"Good." Ezra waves them away.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ70Z0ev1K6C
The Prodigies jump from their relaxing positions and bolts into a time warp opened by Verna.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRFVcOtT4J9
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.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbAEhJYMHIa
"Talia!"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ40ghunFxGY
"Catherine! H-Help!"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVVgKEemMOX
The Timebreaker finally showed itself to the Prodigies. Venus the Timeblossom, carried Talia to the middle of the dimension.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhm38OfWpiO
"Poor girl..." The Timebreaker whispered. "She doesn't even understand what is happening."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3aQZOmiExr
"Catherine, distract her..."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtLjgm9ftcd
"Why do I have to?"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUi2K1p0Se6
"Thou have no ways of attacking, thou will only hurt thyself.."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPCU9r4A7pi
"...Fine." Catherine attempts to phase through the platform they were standing on, but she didn't seep through..
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBsi22dzffo
"Of course the moment I need to use this damn thing, I can't!"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwvvfa38R10
"You can't fall here.." Verna explained. "You'll have to find some other way to get her attention."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBS33hrIo93
"Oi! Flower lady! Let my friend go!"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFxJYsskQe1
"But she's so delicate..." Venus begins to tug at her clothes. "And it seems your friends are keen on attacking me.."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9glCba25pg
Vines unearthed themselves and begins to attack the other Prodigies.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5xJg3rjs0D
"This new flower of mine. I shall keep it.."
Venus places Talia in her flower crown, stuffed in between other flowers and plants aplenty.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI9XWR1Y4zf
"I would really love to stay, but I have a home and family to get back to!"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr5IK1TAJlo
"Now... I'll need to do something about the weeds..."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmooHFwqE2A
She cups her hands and blows into them, allowing glowing dust to fly into the air...and into the Prodigies faces...
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSF0QaZlhzC
Nathaniel, Isabelle and Arsenio were blown away from the air and pollen blasting into their faces..
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqwYHS5S9rJ
Isabelle, who seemed to be fine from the impact, sneezed abruptly.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx0lFvYAale
"Bless you, Izzy.." Dawlly said, pulling itself from her pocket with a tissue.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBDZP6KVJRy
"T-thank you..." taking the tissue and cleaning her nose.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuIyJbfCyos
The other two hadn't gotten up yet, until the girls had their backs turned..
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUvPjml969U
"Catherine! Something's off about Nathaniel!" Talia said from afar. "He looks angry about something!"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKatn4JYgac
"Eh?" she turns around after picking Isabelle up. "Nate? Is something the matter with you?"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQSEfDDA2n3
"This is another part of my abilities...I have amplified their emotions with my spores.."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkbDHJS0MsZ
Nathaniel and Arsenio slowly stand up, clearly affected by the pollen that was thrown into their faces.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4wLAXVeMG4
Nathaniel responded with anger, where he leaps at Catherine as she jumps back.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCvkJumPNIR
"Nate! What the hell did I do?!" she screamed as she ran.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj0tvJ6RnS9
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?
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCFnUn46fga
"D-Dawlly! Help!"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg1K5cpOBkb
"I'm trying, but he won't budge!"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ13XoM1AqWu
"Why would I? She's so warm.."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlpVD1jiPAR
The two girls try their best to fight them off.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFRXoPvJ68t
"Verna! A little help here?!"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlvm2i8eESR
Verna appears and clears her throat...
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQECI08P8E
"Tempus: Cessatio!"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqbF5ePuiL1
Time stops, but this time Catherine and Isabelle can move...
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtAKyENlYGB
Catherine breathes heavily. Isabelle slips through Arsenio's arms and runs towards them.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP4Wz4Afykg
"Okay...we need to come up with a plan. Right now, before Nathaniel cuts me to pieces and Arsenio...cuddles Isabelle to death?"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6UewfcuUkZ
"W-what has h-happened to them? And why aren't w-we affected?"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB2XrlqQTFd
"Obviously.." Catherine states, "... it's because we're the same gender as her..."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHhm9RygHvc
"B-but...how do we stop them?"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ69A5NReCIl
"We beat the hell out of them until they come to their senses, of course."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDWiRglyDIe
"B-but..." "I-I don't want to hurt them...t-they're our allies..."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzlUh4KymcW
"C-Can we hurry this conversation along? I can't hold onto time much longer.." Verna says, straining.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡups7inGoTW
"Just hit him hard enough to where he's back to normal.."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7BCpnhIKsS
Isabelle hesitates, then nods. "O-okay.."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc0tkbcCS37
Verna releases time from it's frozen state, the boys rushed towards them.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMZpZlRYPNp
"Hey Nate!" Catherine taunts. "Come on, you have to run a little faster than that!"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzapzzldYIA
As if on cue, he seemed to runs three times faster. Just as she planned.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVKGyeGHWrc
"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.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1usRnYHm56
As Nathaniel's pulling himself up however, Catherine holds him down with one knee, and both arms behind him.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAFCDHhqv1z
"Now, snap the hell out of it!"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbmd5v6AmvQ
She slowly feels his body slip from under her. Suddenly, the tables had turned.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡULNP2dUnhh
"...Alright alright, let's just talk about this, okay? First, I'm sorry for tripping you..."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrCbBk5DBO8
Nathaniel calls upon his Gift and prepares the fatal blow, the thin, sharp point just inches away from her face.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJo72stJqg
"O-okay! Alright! No need to get aggressive! Just...put away the sword-shield thing.."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRdej27JuWO
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.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpXPEe6syga
"Alright, that's it, I'm gonna use my foolproof escape plan!"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU5IXa0aJjQ
"There is only one way out of this, Catherine. Dea-"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXWtNVXMO2b
Nathaniel feels something press against his nose, catching him off guard. Catherine tried to catch him off guard by... poking his nose.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfLWu1AARjz
"Boop." She said playfully.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡllpR7dHX1r
"What did you just..."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTklu6yFNxP
His face scrunches up.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg7mgfqKIpA
"...Nate. Don't you d-"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBu4PBZh5wH
Nathaniel finally lets out a sneeze, which thankfully, reverts him back to normal.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQdA0FBxh6l
"Nathaniel! That's gross as hell!" Catherine's screams, wiping the germs from her face. "Also, get the hell off of me!"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0tMXQHPevh
Nathaniel quickly gets up, dusts himself off, and pulls Catherine to her feet.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMTCUhVwPCy
"Hey Isabelle! You just have to make Arsenio sneeze!"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6qdWF26YYv
"I-I would m-make him sneeze if I h-had the u-use of my arms!"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqUmHVIjyIL
"Has thou tried struggling?"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN4n7IYcVff
"He j-just keeps hugging t-tighter!"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhTr2RLNeT
"...Shake your head, Isabelle."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwo4NejijOL
"H-hm?"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNyH5pusr1p
"If he's behind you, you can tickle his nose with your hair...I think.."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8o65J95uZX
"A-Arsenio..."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKkMaJnLBer
"Mhm?"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjNhJCHdcSE
Isabelle begins to shake her head in a vigorous manner.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbaumDwprvQ
"Aww..."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Cjw16JBU1
"No! Y-You're supposed to sneeze!"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIeArih5KvZ
"But I don't want to sneeze on you..."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsn4Livs3dO
Isabelle tries making Arsenio sneeze again with the same strategy, to no avail.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ29gqIIPg4g
"Dawlly! Y-You can do your ability!
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsvKBy4s0HE
"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.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4KcjopVYvp
"Get... the hell off of me...you pansy pillock!"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9fBqQor5OS
"Oooh...I like you better when you're ang-"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvlUDt7xHY1
More threads wrapped themselves around his face.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGGBqxawZb5
"Shut up..." She pulls her pair of scissors out of her pocket.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGLW52D74jA
"We just needed him to release her, Dawlly. Please, return her to normal."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaxFdbLINVU
Suddenly, Isabelle drops to the floor.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyqMYHMBlL8
"Can't have you murdering him apparently, Izzy."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5nDdiWQFcr
Isabelle gets up, lightly clenching the space around her heart, and looking up at Arsenio somberly.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjROVSxW8dV
"I-I'm s-sorry Arsenio, but it had to be d-done..."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Tc1zAXM9k
"Just don't forget you have him tied up.."
Dawlly said, slipping back into her pocket.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHCfnCarrdf
"We're gonna go get Talia, and we'll come back." Catherine and Nathaniel push forward towards Venus.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8lFZqfMXWS
"I'll k-keep Arsenio company u-until he s-sneezes..."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIfubTsKf6A
"Good. Catherine, thou shall come with me to catch Talia and send her back home as originally intended..."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsAAjNahtZp
"Yeah yeah..."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA3ZUKPWinp
Nathaniel walks towards Venus in an intimidating manner.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD2Moebx8kF
"Do you have a death wish, Prodigy?"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8uwqTa60bm
"I'm hoping thou would release that innocent young lady from thy grasp."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWyRZvsSTM8
"...If you so desire."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFYLDeaxOwU
Softly, Venus pulls Talia from her flower crown and tosses her into Nathaniel's arms.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiXYsxU6wEV
"...H-Hi..."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7qGsYEbV2N
"Catherine. Take her home."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwSo1srD7KT
"I've got it this time, I swear."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9tP0uC3CT9
Slowly, Catherine does the time traveling ritual back home. Nathaniel puts Talia down.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeEF4QaTob5
"Okay, before I go in, are you absolutely sure this is going home?"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9qsW4WaCBU
"Uhhh.."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz0veVb7HIL
Verna stares at the warp for a second.
"Yep, that goes back to 2022."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYplDgQxFxb
"Bye, for real this time." Catherine chuckled.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB40aG9fpDG
"Bye!" Talia hugs Catherine. "Don't die on me, okay? I don't know what I'd do without you..."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRvY3m4yLLJ
"I can't really promise that, but I'll try, for you."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfxS01xYcmN
"...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."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡClc6u3vHcU
"Yeah? What is it?"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC8Oic4k6uo
"...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?"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCG7BeIXaWO
"I am...not quite sure myself. What or whoever it is, however, they are pure evil.."

"Catherine. Nathaniel. A-Arsenio's back to normal...I-I think..."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqNiL507wEP
"He better be!" Dawlly adds. "I won't hesitate to make her cut him open!"
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Zgkyd45Tu
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.."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKLyhTiwd1o
Isabelle twiddles her fingers. "Let's n-not talk a-about it..."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJoNBttw9nF
"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."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSoinmReW0q
"A-Ah! I'm sorry!" The threads loosen, and Arsenio is let free.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdaz3YUeBeX
Arsenio jokingly clears his throat and takes a deep breath.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1vU1H3gBrx
"I'm sorry for making you feel uncomfortable."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlIkMW34pxZ
"Y-You don't need to apologize...it wasn't in your c-control..."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzPnH24RaQM
"Yeah, but...I still feel bad. I mean, I know I like to charm girls and all, but I'm not gonna be disrespectful."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxvBX1ATJrC
"...O-okay then..I-I forgive you, Arsenio.."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ12lzNsgGde
Arsenio gives Isabelle a light pat on the head. "Great, we're friends again."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiOaXDq0ze7
"Kids." Verna appears. "Today, please? We have a lot to do tomorrow and I want you guys to be well rested." she hurried.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMTEeAPvOND
"We're on our way, jeez..." Catherine returned.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡokCeoTPWmF
Verna creates a time warp, and the Prodigies return to the Sanctuary.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzg0tjHbapU
"E-Ezra, we're back.."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNVDjaF7nBZ
"Welcome back. I made some food for us, I'm sure you four are hungry after the adventure you've had."
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVEVBr55n08
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...
