Two Heads Are Better Than One
When the door shut closed at her back Alyse found herself standingoutside. Looking around at the courtyard that stretched out before her, she was suddenly hit with the realization that she didn’t recognize this particular portion of the Wunderlend Academy campus. No matter. She moved off across the manicured lawn looking around every tree and row of bushes that she came across in her ongoing search for Jack. For the moment he was nowhere to be seen or heard from. Eventually she came across a young man struggling to carry two armloads of brightly colored books. When they spilled to the ground at his feet Alyse was kind enough to bend down and help him gather up the pile. “Thanks,” he said as he rose back up. “Don’t mention it,” Alyse replied. “I don’t believe I’ve seen you around here before. What brings you toour neck of the woods?” “I’m looking for someone. About this high,” she said, lifting her palmin the air and leveling it off just over her head. “Brown hair. Name’s Jack.” “Jack,” he said, his eyes opening wide with surprise. “Yeah. He passedthrough here earlier. I’m supposed to be meeting him at my place in a few. You’re welcome to tag along if you’d like. It’s right this way.” Alyse’s face brightened with the smile she was now wearing. She followed him across the campus expecting to be led back to one ofthe all male dorms but instead wound up at the door of a small one story home. Afterwards the young man that she had come to know as Daren invited her inside before disappearing with his books into the recesses of the house. Alyse roamed the halls of the house as she went on her own private little tour. The interior of the home was surprisingly large compared to the view from the outside. When Alyse finally stumbled across a large bathroom she decided to takeit upon herself to make use of the shower inside. Surely her gracious host wouldn’t mind if she freshened up a bit. Alyse lathered up and rinsed off. She stepped out of the shower to find that the pile of clothing that she had left crumpled on the bathroom floor were now missing. Shocked to find that the clothes that she had planned on putting right back on when she was done washing had just up and vanished on her Alyse quickly reached for the largest towel she could find and wrapped it around herself. She looked around everywhere and saw no sign of them. A knock on the bathroom door distracted her from her search. Whippingthe still dripping wet strands of her hair around, she turned her face in the direction that the sound was coming from. Slowly, the door creaked open and she saw a single hand holding a dark colored bottle make its way into the room. “Hello? Anybody home?” she heard a voice call out and say. The door creaked open even further and the hand was soon accompanied by the appearance of a blonde hair crowned head. The door opened up all the way and her host stepped inside the room. “I hope I’m not disturbing you. Just thought you might enjoy a little something to drink.” He walked over to Alyse and handed her the bottle. “You wouldn’t happento have any idea where my clothes have gotten off to, would you?” “Sure. I dropped them off in the laundry.” “Oh,” she replied. Alyse turned up the bottle she held and tasted herdrink. “By the way, I just hung up with Jack. He told me to tell you that hewas glad that you were here and that he would try to make it over as soon as possible.” “Really?” Alyse said, her face once again lit up with smiles. “Did hesay anything else?” “Just that I was supposed to see to it that you enjoyed your stay….
