“I think it would be pretty cool to be floating above my town. It would be like flying in an airplane,except better,” BernerO said.”Yeah, I know what you mean, dude! Then I could totally drop a giant water balloon on Brett’s head!” Seth laughed. I knew he wasn’t very fond of his mom’s messed up boyfriend, and I couldn’t blame him. “Anyways,” Essie continued, “All of these other characters were there, too. Then Mr. Lawver told us where we were and why we were here. He explained how ficlets was closing, and how he wanted to make it up to you guys. So he tried to tell all of us to come. He led us to the clearing, and we stuck through the back door of the cottage. And now most of us are here,” Essie finished.

It was about time!” she declared. “Sorry he couldn’t be here today,” Casimir spoke up.
