• Chapter Six •
The house was dead quiet, not a soul but one inside. Drew lazily traced his finger on the surface of a table, letting out a quiet sigh. He lived alone in his house, with the exception of Bailey.
Drew stood, stretching his arms high above his head. 'I guess I could sneak into the training area, but I would get caught. Unless..." a devious smile spread on Drew's face. Quickly, Drew shape-shifted into a bumblebee, dashing out through his window into the world.

Drew found himself sitting in shade, keeping in his bumblebee form. He didn't want to get too close for both Aurora and Bailey would hear him. Aurora had a big smile on her face, using her right hand to motion to a portal Bailey had created. Drew remembered Bailey saying he would be training to control himself within the worm hole. He supposed it would be vital for their big mission.
It has only been two weeks since Bailey came. He remembered that day like it was yesterday...

Drew stood before the princess, her face was cold of emotion. "I need you to go to the human world. As you may know, a monster has been destroying time, and we need help. I need you to find this boy." Drew grabbed the picture the princess was holding, scanning it over quickly. On the left corner was a name, Bailey.
"How do I find him?" Drew asked, looking back up at the princess. "I will teleport you to his school, that is where he will be. I've enrolled you to the school, so all you have to do is find him. Once you have, use this." Aurora handed Drew a small pill, "once you swallow it, the pill will last for twenty four hours. With it, you can make him use his power and freeze time. Then, teleport back home and bring him to me."
He felt undoubtedly nervous. How does a pill let you force someone to use their power? Drew nervously smiled, plopping the pill in his mouth and gave the princess a thumbs up. "Let's do this!" He said, waiting for Aurora to make her move."
"Good luck," she said, teleporting him to the human world."

Drew stumbled backwards, falling on his butt. Before him was a school. He sucked in a sharp breath, scanning the glass doors. 'Okay, let's do this!' He thought, getting back up on his feet.
The school was cold, making him regret not wearing long sleeves. "Ah, Drew! Welcome to our school! Here, I've put together a schedule for you." Drew looked over and saw a man, his eyes were a piercing blue. "Um, thank you?" Drew said, taking the schedule from the man. "If you have any questions, don't be afraid to ask. Your first class is over there with Mrs. Rose. She would like to introduce you in front of the class if you don't mind." Drew awkwardly laughed, "no, no, I don't mind. Thank you!" He said, stepping backwards, then turned a corner to leave the man behind.
'Holy cow, that guy was scary!' Drew thought, speed walking down the hall.
Two students walked through a pair of doors, making Drew's heart leap. One of the two was Bailey. Drew jumped around a corner, leaning his back against a wall to listen in on their conversation.
"Hey, you think the new kid is here already? I need to look at his face." Drew blushed, turning away. 'I should go, I don't think I like the girl...' with that, he walked down the hall in attempt to find his first classroom. He'd already forgotten.

Drew was forced out of his thoughts as he found Aurora standing in front of him. "What are you doing here, Drew?" She asked, bending down to look at him. Awkwardly, Drew shifted back into himself. "Erm, how did you know I was here?" He asked, rubbing the back of his head in embarrassment.
"Drew?" Bailey came up behind the princess, confusion painting his face. "Aww, Okay. I was board so I came to watch you guys. But I kinda got lost in my own thoughts and didn't watch you at all..."
Aurora patted his head, "I guess we're good for today, why don't we just leave? And maybe do something fun? Not too late, though. I kinda got in trouble for hanging out with you guys. It's not 'ladylike.'
Drew clapped his hands together, his eyes sparkling with joy. "Waffle party~?" He giggled, scanning the two with a devious grin. "Yup! Only if you're making them!" Bailey replied, returning a small smile.

It weaved through the portals, scanning each and every one with a burning hate. Every so often, a quick shot of acid would land on one, melting it away until nothing was left.
It flew into a portal, finding a good area to rest and buried itself into a small cave. Its red eyes stood out again the dark, scaring anyone who dared to walk by. It had no intention to hurt the worthless humans, its only goal was to find what it had lost. The very thing it had rightfully stollen from it...
A growl started to rumble in its throat, shaking the walls of its temporary home.
"Why are you here?
What do you want?
I won't let you stop me.
One day you'll know what I've been through. You won't ever stop me..."
A boy with brunette hair and brown eyes, a pocket watch in hand, face covered in tears. What had happened? Why did this happen? It narrowed its eyes, burning them into the image. How could one boy be so important to it? What is it.
Both eyes closed, burying its nose into its tail. The image replayed, over and over.
One breath in, more tears poured out. One breath out, he screamed at the top of his lungs. One breath in, the image turned to black. One breath out, the world became a little brighter...
'I'm coming home, just wait for me...'
