Merida whipped around. She looked at a boy of about seventeen.
He had pale-white skin, icy blue and silver hair, and eyes of
crystalline sapphire.
She half-frowned at boy who had just took a tumble into her. He
was on the ground reaching for his backpack, trying and failing
to avoid eye-contact.
"Well what was that for?" she said in her Scottish accent,
bending down to help collect a fly-a-way book.
"Sorry! I got distracted," he said standing, taking his text,
and gesturing towards the dog still chasing the disk.
"Well watch where your going!" it wasn't harsh, just slightly
remanding with a dash of mocking. The boy smiled.
"'I'm Jack Frost," he told her, leaning against the nearby fence
in a purposefully careless manner.
She gave him a half smile, "Merida. Dumbra. So what grade?" she
asked, making idle conversation.
"Eleventh. And yes I am new. I'm from Maine," he filled in the
typical questions with ease. His "backstory" second nature by
now.

Duck was sort of regretting her decisions to invite them,
but.... "Well enjoy the mystery!"

Sherlock turned around just as Duck
finished her sentence as the bell tinkled and two more people
entered the shop. They were two freshmen he wasn't familiar
with, and whom he hadn't seen at the Knight training. However,
Duck seemed to know exactly who they were.

She was of course happy to see them, normally it wouldn't be a
problem. But she had work to do and a lot of it before 4:30, and
if a customer came......she stiffled a sigh and bounded over to
them.
"Aang! Hermoine!! Hey you two, what's up?" she said, beaming.

"Hi Duck," Aang said, glancing at
Hermione. "I wanted to let you know I and Hermione will be going
to the test to get in on Saturday." Hermione looked coldly at
Duck.

Duck smiled at them both, brighter at Hermoine, trying to
convince her through a simple show of teeth, that it would be
okay. They were friends after all. "Okay! I'll tell Merida
tongiht. You staying or headed off?"

Aang shrugged, glancing at Hermione. "I
guess," Hermione said.

Belle rolled back over on her bed and grabbed her cell phone.
She mystery dialed from her speed dial. Who knows who would
answer. The person answered on the first ring. "What?"
"Is that how you talk to your awesome older cousin? I played
along earlier and pretended not to know you, so now you owe me."
The boy on the other end sighed heavily. "I'm not in the mood,
Belle."
"No, you're in a mood. You're always in a mood. What's it about
this time?"
---------------------------------------------------------
Fakir sighed again. Belle could twist the truth a lot. First,
she was Karon's niece, so not his cousin, and second, he wasn't
always in a mood. The only reason that he'd been in a bad mood
recently was because his inspiration had flown away and never
come back. He told Belle as much.
"Why so mysterious? Whatever. Anyway, I'm bored. Wanna hang out
and get rid of mutual boredom-slash-writers block?"
"Why me?"
"Random speed dial."
Fakir felt like facepalming. Only Belle. How had she even
managed to get into such a good college? However, he was really
bored and needed a distraction. "Fine," he replied eventually.
"Wanna meet me in town?"
---------------------------------------------------------
Belle grinned widely. Goodbye boredom! "Sure, I hear that
there's this shop called the Briar Rose (?). Know where it is?"
"Yes," he answered emotionlessly. Belle wanted to smack him, and
she would, when she saw him.
"Good. Meet me there in an hour."
"Okay, see you then."

Duck was really getting frustrated. Which wasn't like her. But
she knew she needed to work and with people swarming the store,
she couldn't. And it wasn't as if they were customers - cause
that was forgivable. She had a deadline to finish her tasks, and
her friends were making doing her chores very difficult. And
while she usually took any excuse to get out of things....well,
she'd have to finish before she could go to the knight's
sleepover and she did not want to be late.
But she smiled brightly and made idle chat, sure that only
Sherlock had any clue of her slight irritation.
_____________________________________________________________________________
"Well Jack Frost," she said emphasizing the ludicrous name,
"where you headed?"
"Home" he replied, uninformatlivley
Merida was just about to start another volley, when Zelda honked
the horn. "That's my ride. Catch ya later," and she bounded of,
her red curls flying behind her. She was about half way to the
car, when she noticed he had started walking away.
"Need a ride?" she called loudly.
______________________________________________________________________________
Jack smiled a sheepish grin, and almost blushed. Normally, he
wouldn't burden anyone, prefering to walk himself - but he
wanted to spend some more time with this girl. "Sure" and he
started a jaunt toward Merdia and her car.

Sherlock noticed her frustration. He was about
to turn and begin thoroughly investigating the shop for the
doorway, but he paused. Should he say something? He nearly
decided against it, but then decided all it would take was a
word, "Duck, don't you need to work? John, let's let her get
back to her job." He wondered if the other two who were there
would be able to catch on or if their thick skulls and little
brains wouldn't pick up on the message.
He wandered away, and saw the other two had too.
Well, they were at least intelligent enough to pick up on that.
As he went to investigate over by the counter, knowing that was
a very reasonable place for a secret button, his eye caught
something. A soft, woolen blue men's scarf. It would go with his
coat marvelously, and it was very practical.
He turned his attention away from it,
however, and felt under the counter, whilst looking for a large,
but easily moved decoration or shelf or such in the shop. Behind
the register. Large tapestry-like decorative curtains stood
there. He glanced up near the top. They didn't hang up quite
like a normal tapestry, but had something that could be easily
slide aside, where as most tapestries were hung on a structure
solidly in place; since they were just decoration. It may not
have been an obvious fact to most of the idiots who entered the
shop, but to him it was quite clairvoent. "Found you," he
muttered under his breath, as he felt the button. The other two
were still in clear sight of the tapestry... and even they would
probably notice a large, secret door opening. Slipping in on the
side would be much easier.
A door was behind the tapestry, and Sherlock
opened it just large enough for himself to slip in. John hissed
after him, "Sherlock!"
"Come on, John, don't you want to see what's in
this one?" John sighed, and slipped in after Sherlock, after
glancing back to make sure the two freshmen weren't looking.

Fakir didn't have to wait long for his cousin to appear. She
barreled around the corner on her moped and parked right in
front of the shop. "Remind me how I convinced you to let me come
here," he told her.
"You were super bored and moody and needed out of the house, so
I strong-armed you. Does that help your ego?"
Fakir almost smiled. "Why yes, yes it does. So I don't have to
go in right?"
Belle did smile. "WRONG!!! I dragged you here, therefore I will
drag you around till you kick your funk. Now lets go in."
She grabbed his arm and pulled him straight for the door. They
had barely stepped inside when Fakir noticed a rather unusual,
obviously homosexual couple over by the wall. Great.
