Main Street (Aura of the Moon)

OOC: Karasz, you DO know you aren't supposed to have any Non-humans in this topic, right? Please. Stop. Please read over the first post again.

OOC: Thank you Zec.

IC:

The Reaper disappears and re-appears outside the closet.

OOC: You're welcome.

OOC: Oh come on, just having a little fun that's all.

*A big boot just kicked Magilla out of the street.*

OOC: At LEAST try to be stealthy about it, Karasz. For example, I didn't reveal that Mr. Gingerbread was a Shaman until page... 9, I believe. You just come out and say that a talking freakin' gorilla appears. It's a bit hard to listen to rules when the head admin doesn't even follow them.

IC:

The woman disappears as the machinery disconnects from Sparky, who gets up and heads out of the hospital. A note appears on his former hospital bed that says "Sparky is fine".

A nurse with a clipboard walks into Sparky's room, picks up and reads the note, then puts it on her clipboard and walks away.

Meanwhile...

Nathaniel and Joshua are in their house. Nathaniel is eating a bowl of cereal while Joshua is watching the news on TV.

Sparky starts heading for the topic exit.

Maria, who is still walking to N&J's house, sees Sparky.

Maria: Oh, you're that kid from yesterday! Are you alright?

Sparky: Strangely enough, I feel fine.

Maria: You sure? I mean, are you even supposed to be out of the hospital this early?

Sparky: Apparently, my vitals are normal. Which is kind of wierd, since I distinctly remember being in a lot of pain.

Maria: Alright.

Sparky: Now then, I think I should be going.

Maria: Okay. I'll tell Joshua and Nathaniel. It was... nice meeting you?

Sparky: Same.
Sparky leaves the topic.

Maria: Hmm...

Maria walks up to the front door of the house and knocks. Joshua gets up and answers the door.

Joshua: Maria! You're up early.

Maria: So are you.

Joshua: I always get up at this time.

Maria: I just spoke with Sparky.

Joshua: Really!? Is he ok!?

Maria: Yeah. He just left.

Joshua: Where to?

Maria: He didn't say.

Joshua: Oh...

Maria: Actually, I was hoping you would help me.

Joshua: With what?

Maria: I'm about to open my piano class. I was wondering if you can help me tutor the students.

Joshua: What about your boyfriend?

Maria: He's out of town.

Joshua: Alright then, I'll help.

The blonde woman from the hospital exits said hospital and walks around town.

Joshua and Maria walk into the house and into the kitchen.

Joshua: Nathaniel, I'm going over to Maria's. Stay here.

Nathaniel: Oh really? Getting acquainted already?

Joshua: WHAT THE HELL IS THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN!?!?

Nathaniel: Nothing.~

Joshua: Whatever. Just stay here and don't leave.

Nathaniel: Aye aye, captain.

Maria and Joshua leave the house and starts walking down the street.

Maria and Joshua reach Maria's house, a much larger house that looks more like a mansion. Joshua and Maria enter.

Meanwhile, Nathaniel is playing on his Wii.

It's 3:00 PM and Nathaniel stops playing on his Wii. He starts flipping through the channels and stops on the local news channel.

Newsman: In local news, there have been reports of attacks of large, wolf like creatures terrorizing citizens in the middle of the night. It is advised that citizens stay inside until animal control has taken care of the situa- *Click.*

Nathaniel: Hmph, who would be stupid enough to stay out until 12 anyways?

Meanwhile, Joshua and Maria are helping a small boy with thick glasses by trying to teach him how to play "Twinkle,Twinkle Little Star". The boy hits a wrong note.

Maria: No, no, it's D D A A B B A-, not D D A A B B G. Try again.

It's 6:00 PM and Nathaniel is waiting for Joshua.

Nathaniel: Jeez, where is he!?

Meanwhile, in Maria's house, the boy manages to play the song on the piano.

Maria: Bravo! Keep practicing!

Joshua smiles as he watches Maria work.

Ashley enters the topic.

OOC: Don't worry, she'll be good.

Wait... "good" is the wrong word.

Um... she'll not use her magic powers.

It's 7:00 PM and Nathaniel is on the couch, about to pass out.

Nathaniel: Damn it... Where ze HELL is Joshua!?

Nathaniel hears a wolf howl...and it sounded rather close.

Nahaniel: Stupid dogs...

Nathaniel looks down an sees Lady shivering in fear.

Nathaniel: Don't be scared, Lady, it's just the other, bigger dogs.

Ashley also hears the wolf howl, but takes a more apathic attitude towards it.

Back at Maria's house, Maria has stopped her lessons and she and Joshua are on her couch, talking about what happened in their child hoods and laughing.

Maria: ... And then Kayla jumps up and smacks the spider of Kyle's head! *Laughs.*

Joshua: *Laughs and wipes a tear away.* Aaaaaahhh, it sounds like you had a pleasant time.

Maria: Actually, I felt kind of... out of place since you left. You were only one who would talk to me back then.

Joshua: Maria, back then we were 7.

Maria: Yeah, but still...

Joshua stops smiling and grabs one of Maria's hands and clasps it between both of his hands. Maria looks up at Joshua, who is staring into her eyes.

Joshua: Maria, please, you know I don't like it when people are sad.

Maria: Joshua...
