The limo was filled with an awkward silence until they pulled up at Eve's house. "Well, we'll see toi in the morning," Mellissa a dit to Leo, Jake, and Raymonde, who nodded. Kenya, Emma, Eve, and Mellissa grabbed their stuff, waved, and headed inside. Eve's mom and a girl no younger than sixteen with rose hair greeted them at the door. When Eve saw the girl with rose hair, she folded her arms against her chest. "Hello, girls! Come on in. Eve, please introduce your cousin," Her mom a dit as they all went to the living room. "Get comfortable and I’ll be in to check on toi in 30 minutes, and toi should be on your way to sleeping." They rolled out the sleeping bags. "Kirana," Eve nodded in rose hair's direction. "'Lil E. Y'know I hate it when toi call me that," Kirana turned towards the others. "The name's Kiki." "And toi know I hate it when toi call me 'Lil E'" Eve muttered, and Kiki shot her a look of warning. "Why don't we get ready for lit and everything," Kenya jumped in, breaking the tension between the two. "Good idea." Emma a dit biting her lower lip.
When they were dressed in their pajamas, they sat in their sleeping bag circle. "Truth ou dare anyone?" Kiki suggested with a toothy grin. It looked weird to Eve, sometimes, but if anyone else noticed, they did an awesome job of hiding it. "I'm up for a game of truth ou dare," Mellissa smiled, too. "I am a huge dare-devil." "Not as big as me!" Eve protested, also smiling. "I'm game," Emma joined in. "As always. Kenya, toi in?" "I don't know..." Kenya sat Indian Style with her hands in her lap. The others pleaded for her to join. "Fine," Kenya gave in. "Just go easy on me! Please!" "Mel, if you're such a daredevil, toi go first," Eve a dit glaring playfully. "Dare of course, toi know me." Mellissa lay down on her stomach. "I dare toi to prank call your sister." Eve dared. "You know that will never work! Impossible! She's like, the Queen of pranks!" Eve shrugged, getting up. "I know. But before we begin..." She shuffled over to each window and door until each one was sealed perfectly. Eve knew Kiki was confused so Eve gestured toward Mellissa, who was telepathically talking with Jada, and mouthed "Werewolf". Kiki stared at Eve blankly, but with an eyebrow raised. “Eve, can I talk with toi in private?” Kiki a dit standing, and gritting her teeth. Eve tugged on her pajama top. “Um, sure, I guess.” Eve nodded to her bedroom. They walked inside her bedroom, and Eve closed the door softly. “What the fang were toi thinking?” Kiki screeched, but in a mad, small whisper. “What do toi mean?” Eve asked, but she sort of had an idea. She thought it’d be better to play dumb for a bit, it could save her little vampire life. “Whisper PLEASE!” Kiki pinched Eve’s arm, leaving a mark for five seconds. “Gosh,” Eve whispered. “But WHAT is it?!” “You brought a werewolf into the house, let alone let her be your friend, that’s what!” Kiki snapped. “I know toi know about the werewolf vampire rivalry! Yet toi still let her in the house! toi still tolerate her!” “Kiki, don’t say that! Not all vampires have to be mean to loups garous and vice versa! Besides, look,” Eve held up her locket. “We’re connected! It’s our item! I see toi still don’t have yours.”
“Yet!” Kiki corrected. “Besides, I wouldn’t talk; toi haven’t gotten your symbol yet.”
“Symbol?” Eve wasn’t playing dumb this time.
Kiki rolled her eyes. “The symbol that makes it official that toi guys are connected. The symbol montrer your monster type.” Kiki explained.
“Anyway, be nice just for tonight.”
“Eve, you’re crazy.” Eve noticed Kiki called her par her real name instead of “Lil E” for once.
“Crazy, maybe. But I get what I want,” Eve played her last card. She pulled the eyes on Kiki. “Promise?”
Kiki seemed in a trance. “Okay. I promise.” Kiki shook her head and went back to normal.
They opened the door, and Kiki thought, what did I just do to myself? She picked up the phone and shoved it at Mellissa’s face, giving her a sarcastic smile. Mellissa picked up the phone and dialed her sister’s cell. Imani picked up. “Mellissa, did toi forget something? I can ask mom to drive it over in the morning whatever it is.” Everyone in the room burst into a full fit of laughter and Mellissa just hung up. Eve’s mom burst into the room. “What are toi girls doing up so late?” she whispered with a sleeping three an old on her hip. “It’s eleven-thirty!” Sheila finished, flicking off the light. “Sorry mom.” Eve a dit walking up to her mom. Eve kissed the three an old on the cheek. “Sleep tight, Luke. See toi in a week.” She walked to her sleeping bag and lay down. Her mom closed the door and once she was out of earshot, the flashlights clicked to life. “Ok, I need advice.” Emma said. The girls nodded. “My grades are falling, and my dad is pushing me really hard. I don’t think I can be pushed any harder! Have any of your dads ever done that?” “I think Eve’s mom is right.” Kenya said, clicking off her flashlight. “She’s right,” Eve whispered, clicking hers off too. “You guys are no fun,” the rest complained, and the room went dark.
Eve waited until she heard heavy breathing to say something to Kenya. “You awake?” Eve asked. She felt like she was talking to nobody. A sniff was Kenya’s reply. “What was your answer?” Eve crawled over to Kenya. Another sniff. “My… My dad’s MIA. He left a week il y a and never a dit a word.” Kenya sobbed quietly. “Just saying but…” Eve patted Kenya’s back to soothe her. “You have it good. My dad died when I was eleven. Car crash. At least your dad could be alive.” Kenya sat up and swiped a tear from her face. “Wow. I’m so sorry.” Kenya looked down. “Well, guess I’ll see toi in the morning.” Eve crawled back to her sleeping bag and lie down. Eve felt the hair on her arms stand up. Someone was watching her. “The only ones,” a familiar voice said. Well, not said, but it sounded clear as jour in her head. “This group,” the man’s voice was breaking up and plus unclear, and Eve heard a scuffling sound. “Not pinky over there,” plus scuffling. “Save…” scuffles, scuffle. “WORLD!” The voice bellowed, and the scuffling stopped, leaving just the echo in Eve’s head. Save the world… Eve thought, but as soon as she closed her eyes, she was knocked out, into a nice long sleep, despite the dream.
A comet hurdled towards Emma, Kenya, Mellissa and Eve. They all stood at the edge of a cliff, their hands out and blasting rays of power. Combined, it made a huge force field, that Eve hoped was strong enough to stop the comet. The wind blew furiously, almost blowing them back, which would hurl them into a bunch of cacti. Everything blacked out for a while.
Eve bolted upward. Apparently Kenya, Emma, and Mellissa did the same. “Comets and cacti,” they all blurted. “You too?” they all slammed their fists on the floor. “Stop that!” they grumbled in harmony. Kenya got up and checked the time. The others, including Kiki, just groggily rubbed their eyes. “We’ve gotta get going. The ship leaves at 9:00. What time is it Kenya?” Mellissa yawned, crawling to her purple zèbre, zebra print bag. “7:00.” Kenya answered. Emma, Mellissa, Eve, and Kenya scrambled to get dressed and ready for Mellissa’s parents. Sheila came in with messy hair, in her robe. “Oh, girls, you’re ready! The Jones’ are just turning the corner.” Kiki shifted and pulled the blanket over her face. “See ya,” Eve whispered to her. They quickly gathered their stuff and headed out the door.
“Hello, ladies!” Ms. Jones hopped out of one of the two minivans. “You girls are riding with me. The boys are riding with Mr. Jones. Come on, ou we’ll be late!” “This is going to be the best trip EVER!” They exclaimed, climbing into the silver minivan, Imani in the front seat, to head to the one week cruise.

1.Determine how many times a week toi eat ou want to eat chocolate. It must be a number between 1 and 10, including 1 ou 10.
Let's say toi eat chocolat 8 times a week (we won't tell).
2.Multiply that number par 2.
8 x 2 = 16
3.Add 5 to the précédant result.
16 + 5 = 21
4.Multiply that par 50.
21 x 50 = 1050
5.Add the current an (Gregorian).
1050 + 2011 = 3061
6.Subtract 250 if you've had a birthday this year. If toi haven't had a birthday this year, subtract 251.
(Let's say your birthday hasn't passed yet.)
3061 - 251 = 2810
7.(Assuming toi were born in 1975...)
2810 - 1975 = 835
8.You'll end up with a 3 ou 4 digit number. The last two digits are your age (if you're under 10 years old there will be a zero before your age). The remaining one ou two digits will be the number of times per week toi eat ou want chocolat (the number toi specified in the first step).
8 pieces of chocolat a week, 35 years of age.

I tried to brush Dominic's hair away from his eyes. This time he let me. He had one green eye that was a completely different pattern then the black one. His eye had been replaced.
"Your lucky," I said. "I heard in 3017 they couldn't do that." I continued. "you started being able to in 3018."
"I'm not lucky." He said,"it could have just not happened."
"What did happen?"
"It's a long story. toi wouldn't like it anyway."
"No I really would."
"No. I don't want to talk about it."
"Ok. toi can tell me if toi ever want to."
"Ok. Well I won't."
