[Enter: Lord Cedric from the Mall]
Despite what Cedric intended to do, turning invisible proved to be the only option now - with all the guardians at the entrance gate, it would have been too risky to just go past them. But still, he hated invisibility. Hiding behind some shrubs, Cedric desperately tried to remember some random shape he could use. But all shapes escaped him now. But was there really a need to hide from the guardians? As long as it wasn't obvious that he was Cedric, he didn't need to completely conceal himself - actually, putting them on edge would have made things far more interesting. When people are nervous, they make mistakes. But what about the school staff? They probably won't let some dirty beggar walk around. But with the power given to him by Elyon, he didn't worry about that. He could send a telepathic message to any unwanted persons around, ordering them to look the other way. It will surely drain enough of his strength, but... oh well. So Cedric decided to risk it. He turned into the old guy, left his hideout and started walking past the guardians. He took a long stare at Will. Then Cedric smiled slightly, turned away and entered the school.

Cornelia blinked in surprise.
"Are you sure, Will? Do you know if whatever it is is following us now?" Cornelia asked, looking around in bewilderment.

"Here's something even more creepy guys." Irma said tentatively. "When I went to take out the trash last night I saw two glowing eyes look at me. I think someones following us."

"Oh great," Cornelia muttered. "Well we need to keep our eyes peeled, girls,"
She stood up.
"It's not like we don't have any enemies, but would they really go through the Veil just to eliminate us?"

"Well we don't know what their intentions are," Will said. "For all we know someone could be following us to ask for help. That someone could be a spy or even be trying to harm us, we just don't know."
BRRRRINNNNNNGGGGGGG!!!
Will looked up as the bell rang. Students started shuffling through the front doors.
"But like Cornelia said, we need to keep our eyes peeled and stay on guard."
Will stood up along with Cornelia.
"See you guys in gym then?"

"See you," Cornelia said to the other three. "Coming Will? Gotta start some wonderful math," Cornelia said with a roll of her eyes.

"See you later!" Irma yelled over the bell. "We'll be sure to tell Hay Hay about everything when we see her!"

"Okay, thanks," Will said as she and Cornelia walked away.
"Um, oh yeah I almost forgot. I need to have a quick word with Matt. See you in class in a few?"

Cornelia smiled "Sure, just don't be late okay?"
She turned away and giggled before walking through the doors to her math class.

Will nodded and then walked around looking for Matt. She spotted him with a couple of his friends at the corner of the school wall. She walked over, uncertain on whether or not she should interrupt.
"Um hi, Matt. I can talk now."

Matt turned around and saw Will.
"Oh hey Will." He faced his friends and told them he would meet them later in class.
"So what did you want to talk about Will?" he asked wondering if it had anything to do with their date later today.

"Oh, yeah, I was just wondering..."
How in the world was she going to say this? She couldn't very well ask if he had asked her for a second walk, because if he said no then he may think she was insane.
"Well this may sound like a weird question, but what did you do after you first walked me back from your grandfather's pet shop?"
Will shrugged inside her head. That was as good as it was going to get.

Well that was a weird question...
"I walked back to the shop and helped grandpa for a bit then I went home and practiced guitar before I went to bed....why?" Matt wondered if everything was all right.

hmm...does that mean that the Matt I walked with was...an imposter? Oh no, are there two Matts walking around?
"Oh, well no reason really. I thought you had come back or something but that was probably just my imagination."

[Enter: Elyon from the school courtyard]
Peek-a-boo! What do we have here? From the shadows of the main building, Elyon peeked around a corner to confirm with her eyes what her ears already picked up. And seeing both Matt and Will, she moved a bit further back to prevent being seen. Everyone around her kept saying it. Now she finally had a chance to see for herself. Even if it's just from a distance. But was that really Matt? Yes. Yes it was. She could sense it.
Keeping her distance, the princess watched and listened. Go ahead, Will Vandom... she thought to herself. Give me another reason to hate you, if you dare...
