Dreamchasers - Episode 3

“unexpected power”

## Scene 1

Kayla, George, Ash

Another day. Another school day. This time, we are seeing Kayla in her room. Kayla after a bad night's sleep, she opened her eyes and dressed up in her uniform. She's much gloomier than usual.

* George: Good morning, Kayla. Are you going soon?

* Kayla: ..Yeah..

* George: Did you have a good night's sleep, sis?

* Kayla: Ugh…I don't think so.. I couldn't sleep, so I stayed up all night thinking…then I just browsed the web...I didn't look at the clock but I must have stayed up to at least 3am..

George was a bit mad at Kayla for not keeping her schedule.

* George: KAYLA!!

* Kayla: It's your fault, George. Don't look at me like that.

* George: How is it my fault??

Kayla just stepped out of the flat and closed the door. She's at the stairways, but no one else is there yet. She slowly walks up to Ash's flat to wait there as usual. Her usual smile when waiting is gone. She picks out her phone while waiting.

After a few minutes of waiting, Ash opens the door. Kayla looked up at Ash in surprise. She gave a small worried smile.

* Kayla: Morning..

Kayla stopped smiling right after saying that.

* Ash: Morning.?

Kayla and Ash awkwardly stare at each other. Ash noticed that something was unusual and they started to worry.

* Kayla: Let's get going.

* Ash: Ah, uhm… okay…

## Scene 2

Kayla, Ash

Kayla and Ash walked to school without saying a word. Kayla wasn't really talkative at the moment.

* Ash: Something is off..like..really off.. should I ask her if she's okay? What did I do wrong? Is she thinking about how I left her? Oh no.. I don't like this.. …Maybe I should tell her that I'm sorry…

* Kayla: Ash? You look worried. Are you okay?

Kayla asked Ash without giving a single smile.

* Ash: SHOOT! I WANTED TO ASK HER FIRST!! …Oh god..

Kayla..I am o-okay.. I'm more worried…a-about...y-you…

Kayla was shocked. Then she smiled at Ash trying to convince Ash of her being okay.

* Kayla: Ash.. don't worry about me. I just didn't sleep well last night.

* Ash: O-oh..why is that?

Kayla silently looked sideways.

* Kayla: NO I CAN'T TELL ASH THIS!! WHY?! I HAVE TO LIE! I HATE LYING!! COME ON KAYLA THINK!!!

Nothing important. I had a bad dream and I couldn't fall back asleep back, ahaha.

* Ash: Bad d-dreams, huh.. uh oh…

Ash clutches their palms together.

* ..I-I have a lot of those..

Kayla and Ash almost arrive at their classroom.

* Kayla: Okay, okay.. Ash fell for it. But uUUUGH WHY DID BLAKE AND GEORGE SAY THOSE THINGS?!

Kayla and Ash arrive at their classroom. The door is shut, so Kayla wants to open the classroom door. She grabs the doorknob..

* Kayla: THEY CAN'T BE RI-

And suddenly, the door and some parts of the wall exploded in one go. Kayla couldn't help but to stare. Ash then slowly took a few steps back and looked at Kayla in utter shock.

Kayla saw the fear in Ash's eyes and she herself started trembling too. She felt like she's about to faint.

Kayla couldn’t believe her eyes at all. She collapsed down on the floor and felt the world fading away as she tried to say something with a very weak and shaking voice.

* Kayla: I-It..c-can't be.. (almost inaudible)

The world went black right after that moment.

## Scene 3

Nurse, Ash

Ash is standing in the nurse's office talking to the nurse.

* Nurse: Don't worry, she'll be okay. She was probably just scared by her ability, or really stressed about something.

Ash is using their notebook again due to the fact they are still scared.

* Ash: Her ability?

* Nurse: Oh, right.. As we can see, her powers are explosions and fire. This is a very rare and strong ability.. I really hope it's on a controllable level.

If it's too powerful.. It's uncertain what might happen to her.

* Ash: But she said she will get a knowledge superpower..

* Nurse: Knowledge power? This is clearly not a knowledge power. There must've been a misunderstanding.

Ash looked at the nurse with surprise.

* Nurse: When she wakes up, please keep an eye on her. Keep her emotions under control until she learns how to use this power. It might be dangerous to leave her alone.

Ash nods to the nurse.

* Nurse: She will give you a sign when she wakes up.

Ash nods again in sadness.

* Nurse: Aw, don't be sad, I'm sure that she'll wake up soon. The only reason why she went back to sleep was because of sleep deprivation.

## Scene 4

Ash, Aoi

Ash walks out of the office and goes up to the rooftop. They sat down on that one bench where they met Aoi heavy-heartedly.

Ash looks up in the sky. It is very cloudy this morning. They started wondering if it will rain soon.

* Ash: I feel like it's going to rain.. I don't think it was a…good idea to sit out here at this time.. I bet that Aoi won't come here.

The gray sky makes Ash think of a few things.

* Ash: What exactly happened with Kayla..? Did she lie to me? Or was she the one who got lied to about her abilities? Or was this just a pure accident?

* Ash: To think about it…She seemed to be just as scared as me…

It started raining heavily all of the sudden. Ash angrily pouted on it.

* Ash: Great. I'm going to be wet..

Ash stormed back into the halls, in front of the rooftop door. Ash took off their blazer.

* Ash: It's a little bit cold.. I wish I thought this through and brought a coat with me like Blake always does..

* Aoi: HELLO!

Ash looked around and saw Aoi behind their back.

* Ash: AH-UM-...H-hi..

Aoi looked around the halls.

* Aoi: Why is no one else here but us?

Ash started wondering that too.

* Ash: D-don't know..

* Aoi: Also, what's up with you? You seem sad..

* Ash: I'm…um...the thing is…uh..

it's just…so…

...stressful…

* Aoi: What's stressful?

Ash sat down on the cold floor and started writing in their notebook.

* Ash: …I wanted to apologize for something to my best friend…But I don't know when the right time is..she's acting differently today, and now I'm more stressed about this than before.

* Aoi: Oh..

* Ash: And she probably lied to me as well.. or she got lied to.. she got a really scary power out of nowhere.

* Aoi: Scary power? What's so scary about it?

* Ash: ..You see.. she exploded a door when she tried opening it. Simply by touching it.

* Aoi: WOAH!!! EXPLOSIONS?!

* Ash: I don't know what I can do about it now.. The nurse said that she could even turn out as "too powerful"...I don't know what that means exactly…But…She wanted to be a part of the Heroes League.. What can I do now?

Aoi says the reply with great confidence.

* Aoi: Support her!

Aoi sweetly smiles at Ash.

* Aoi: She's your best friend, right? Say that you will be still by her side no matter what. That's what best friends do after all! She might cheer up, and when you say your apology she might just forgive you immediately. No more guilt!

* Ash: …really? …That's all I can do?

* Aoi: No no no! That's just one of the things you can do! You can also hang out with her to prove that! Bring her somewhere! Or give her presents!

* Ash: Oh…

The bell rang.

* Ash: I-I uhm…I gotta go..

* Aoi: No worries! You can do this! I believe in you!

* Ash: ..T-Thank y-you..

Ash gives a small smile to Aoi and hurries downstairs.

## Scene 5

Ash, Nurse, Kayla

Kayla found herself in the nurse's office when she opened up her eyes after a few hours.

* Kayla: WHA- WHAT'S HAPPENING? Oh, it was a bad dream? Wait, where am I? This is not my room!

* Nurse: Hello there. You're in my office right now, because you fainted.

There's also someone waiting for you outside. He came in front of the office after every lesson that you have missed.

Oh, and one last thing, don't worry. I'll make sure to give you the permit for missing these lessons. I think it's third period right now..so you didn't miss a lot, fortunately.

* Kayla: Is Blake waiting for me outside? Light blue hair, blue eyes?

* Nurse: Blake? No, no, I don't think you have the right person.. He had gray eyes and dark purple or blue hair..

* Kayla: ASH?!

Kayla immediately jumped off the bed from hearing that.

* Nurse: You should be grateful for him. He came here crying and told me what happened. We brought you here, and I checked you as soon as possible. You're alright, you were just using your power.

Anyways, the person waiting outside must be still worried about you. Could you please take a look outside and see if he's there?

* Kayla: Mhm. Sure.

The nurse opened the door for Kayla. Kayla noticed Ash standing in distress then looking at her. Ash at that moment ran towards Kayla. Kayla opened her arms in response, then they hugged each other.

* Ash: …K-Kayla...

Kayla is still confused about what was a dream and what wasn't. She looked confusedly at Ash but she was happy to get a hug out of nowhere so she smiled right after.

* Kayla: Ash, I’m-

Ash hugged Kayla tighter in response. Kayla found this unusual and she became flustered.

* Kayla: W-Whah-!

She blushed hard as she felt Ash being so close to her.

* Kayla: I-I’m..not s-sure what is h-happening-

* Ash: I-I..wa-want to t-tell you..s-something…

* Nurse: Uhm..Glad you’re having a moment here, but… there are some other people waiting behind you.

Ash and Kayla immediately jumped away from each other at that moment when they saw others waiting.

* Kayla: …O-Oh, we apologize…

Kayla and Ash ran out together from the nurse's office.

* Ash: S-s..sorry for…h-hugging you..

Kayla looked at Ash questioningly.

* Kayla: Why are you saying sorry? I love hugs!

Kayla smiled at Ash, then she changed the mood to something more serious.

* Kayla: Anyway..can you tell me what happened? I think I had a blackout..

* Ash: U-uh…Y-you….um…

* Kayla: Ash…Feel free to use your notebook…

* Ash:..No..uhm..

Y-You…u-used…P-power…um…

f-fire…fire…p-power..

* Kayla: FIRE POWER?! WHAT FIRE POWER? SO IT WASN'T JUST A BAD DREAM?!

Ash nods.

But I thought I would get..a power that's connected to knowledge.. I'll tell this to my mother as soon as I get home..

* Also, what did you want to tell me, Ash?

Ash tries to get themselves together to say the apology.

* Ash: I will say my apology now… Kayla...I-I'm…Uhm..

Ash starts to feel more nervous.

I wanted t-to…s-say t-that..

Then they remembered what Aoi said to them. It flashes back in their mind.

L-LET'S-....LET'S…GO!....

S-SOMEWHERE!

* Kayla: "Let's go somewhere?" Where?

Kayla cluelessly looked at Ash who is trying to invite Kayla to hang out.

* Ash: n-not…h-here.. I-I mean.. t-to.. d-do something..t-to…together..

* Kayla: WHAT?!

Kayla is still clueless.

* Kayla: "Not here, Do something together?"

* Ash: U-umm...Outside…you know...uh…go..some…where…

...l-later…

Kayla realized.

* Kayla: OHHH NOW I GET IT! You wanna hang out with me?

Ash nodded.

Kayla freaked out that Ash was the one who invited her somewhere this time.

* ..You wanna bring me somewhere?!

Ash nodded.

OH! I'm so excited!!!! Where did you plan to go with me? And when? This week? Is it indoors or outdoors?

Ash didn't think this through.

* Ash: U-umm... It's…A SURPRISE! Y-yeah..

## Scene 6

Blake, Kayla, Ash, Zane

No sooner had Blake happened to be walking in the halls nearby, than noticed Ash and Kayla. He headed towards those two and greeted Kayla.

* Blake: Hello Kayla! Wh-what happened? Why weren't you in the previous 2 classes? When I asked Ash they didn't say a single word to me! They were really terrified of something, I'm just guessing..

* Kayla: They didn't? ..huh.. but they were talking to me just now!

* Blake: Did you cause this?

* Kayla: Ahaha…um…Something unexpected just happened.

* Blake: What did you do this time?

* Kayla: I-..Accidentally blew up the classroom door and wall…

* Blake: you…WHAT!??!?

* Kayla: I really don't know how I managed to do that…I've never been so surprised before that happened..

* Blake: You had a bomb nearby? Or… that was your power or something?

* Ash: Th-that’s…h-her…p-power…

Kayla became gloomy.

* Kayla: …seems so…

Blake was shocked to hear that.

* Blake: BUT HAVEN’T YOU BEEN MENTIONING IT EARLIER THAT YOU MUST HAVE HAD A KNOWLEDGE POWER BEFORE IT HAPPENED?!?

Kayla replied angrily.

* Kayla: THIS IS WHY I SAID I WAS SURPRISED ABOUT IT!!! I NEVER EXPECTED THIS TO HAPPEN! WHAT SHOULD I DO NOW!?!

Ash thinks it’s their time to shine. They gotta show their support as much as they can to prove that they are a good friend.

* Ash: Okay Ash…you can do this. …Kayla…Um…I-It’s…okay…It’s go-going to be a-alright…Don’t be upset…

On hearing Ash’s words, Kayla started to calm down. She let out a sigh.

* Kayla: \*sigh\* Well, I suppose…

* Ash: Yo-you can…look on the b-bright side…

Kayla cheered up a little.

* Kayla: Oh hey! You’re right! I can be a warrior! Maybe..I can be an even better hero than I originally planned myself to be!

Ash blushed a little and gave a warm, small smile in response.

* Ash: I’m glad Kayla is feeling better now…

* Blake: You want to be a part of the heroes’ league?

* Kayla: OF COURSE I DO!!

* Blake: I would really like to be a part of it too, to be honest. It feels great to help people in need. I would like to get a nice combat power or something that is related to computer science.. Talking about joining the heroes’ league.. Do you plan to be a part of the Heroes’ league as well, Ash?

Ash shook.

* Ash: …I…I don’t want to…At all…

Kayla’s smile was gone at that moment.

* Kayla: Aw, Ash please come on! I want to be heroes with you! We can be..Top heroes together! We could save the world!!

Kayla touched Ash’s back and smiled while imagining the future.

* Imagine…And everyone would cheer for us and we can even become part of History books! How cool is that? The next generation might be learning about us in the future! They would read it out loud.. “Two best friends, the coolest top heroes, saved the world!”

The rest of Kayla's gang didn’t really react the way Kayla expected them to.

* Blake: Wow, that was very…\*khm khm\*…uuuuuhhhhhhhh…

* Ash: …N-no…

Kayla angrily pursed her lips at both Ash and Blake.

* Blake: Are you living in a fairytale or what makes you think these? They’re very unlikely for that to happen…

* Kayla: B-but!! I want to believe!!

Blake smiled at Kayla.

* Blake: Oh, haha, as they say…believe what you want to believe, I won't stop you.

* Ash: I don’t want to be a hero…

* Kayla: …Ash pleaseeeee…

* Ash: I-I’m…

* Blake: Kayla, Ash is probably too afraid to be one. Not everyone wants to run into their death like some certain people do.

* Kayla: BUT I WILL PROTECT YOU! Ash, you saw my power!

* Ash: I’d rather pass…I don't want to be a burden…

Meanwhile, a green haired guy walks nearby Kayla's gang.

* Zane: Well, well, well…What do we have here…The explosion girl.

* Kayla: EXPLOSION GIRL?! FIRST I'M CALLED RED HAIRED CHICK, NOW THIS?! Oh come on!! Y'all can come up with better names than these!

* Zane: Your ability must be very powerful. But..It has a lot of side effects.

* Kayla: Who asked you?

* Zane: Oh and wait.. Are these two your friends? What power do they have?

Ash and Blake awkwardly looked at eachother.

* Blake: I don't know mine yet. But my mother has a power related to computer science and my father has combat.

* Zane: Oh, you might be a good one too…

…And are you?

Zane stared at Ash suspiciously.

* Ash: I-...I don't have…I don't have a…

* Zane: Then how did you even get in here???

* Kayla: Chill, chill!! Who even are you? They have powers but they don't know theirs yet! Their mother doesn't have one but that doesn't mean that any other relative didn't have one!

* Ash: Kayla is defending me again...but…she might get in trouble with me…

* Zane: I'm not sure if I could believe you, boom-boom girl.

* Blake: She must be telling the truth..How would Ash be here if they didn't have any powers? After finishing middle school, people must take a measurement. Ash got a positive result, right? Which means that they belong here.

* Kayla: Yes, they got positive! Now shut up gRaSs HeAd!

* Zane: That power…must be irrelevant then… He won't have a single chance to get into the Heroes' League. Maybe when pigs fly.

Kayla became angry.

* Kayla: They have a chance!

* Ash: No, I don't want to be a hero! Why can't any of you listen to me! I…

* Kayla: Woah, sorry Ash… I’m sorry.

The school bell suddenly rang.

* Zane: Now I should take my leave. Try not to blow up the building, Bakugou. See ya~

* Kayla: I don't want to see you again… piss off…

Ash and Kayla are walking to the next class. Kayla is feeling bad about what happened, because she pushed her ideas onto Ash.

* Kayla: geez…I shouldn't have done that… I was trying too hard...I should've considered their feelings too…

* Kayla: Now they're probably mad at me-

Kayla stops for a moment.

* Kayla: Hey Ash-

Ash stopped as well on hearing her and they interrupted Kayla right at that moment.

* Ash: I think we should keep going. We're going to be super late and the teachers won't like that

Ash gave Kayla a painful small smile.

* Kayla: eh?!

## Scene 7

Kayla, Ash, Naomi, Sophia

The bell rang. Another lesson ended. It's lunch break. Kayla is standing in front of her locker.

* Kayla: This can't get better.. Ugh, I really shouldn't have done that!! ...Oh!  I just remembered that I brought some cupcakes!! Maybe I can make up!

Kayla walks up to Ash with her lunch. Blake is gone with someone else at the moment, so only Ash was sitting inside the desk.

* Kayla: …um…you remember yesterday?

Ash looked confusedly at Kayla.

* Kayla: I'll take that as a no.. I promised to bring you some cupcakes!

When Ash realized what she was talking about, Ash stood up from their desk.

* Sophia: CUPCAKES?!?

Kayla's deskmate ran up to Kayla and Ash.

* Sophia: Can I come with you, PLEAAAASE??!

Sophia looked at Kayla with puppy eyes.

* Kayla: ..Okay! Sure!

* Sophia: Thanks!!

* Ash: great…more people…again…

Kayla, Ash and Sophia sat down to eat in the school cafeteria.

* Sophia: Kayla, what kind of cupcakes do you have?

* Kayla: Vanilla cupcakes with chocolate chips on them!

* Sophia: \*gasp\* I LOVE THOSE!! Thank you again for having me!

* Kayla: No probs!

* Sophia: You know…Kayla…I think you're a really cool classmate. Can we be friends?

* Kayla: OF COURSE!!

* Ash: Did Kayla just get another someone in her group today? Geez..Blake and Kayla were enough..

* Sophia: Oh and since you're here too! ..Can we be friends as well?

The wild Sophia excitedly looked at the sulking Ash as a prey (friend) to capture.

* Ash: ..me?

* Sophia: Who else would I be asking?

Ash was very surprised to hear that. Friends? Are friends that easy to get?

* Ash: I…um…S-..sure..

Sophia happily munches on her cupcake.

* Ash: B-but…I don't know your...uhm…name…

* Sophia: Oh, I apologize for not introducing myself to you! I'm Sophia! I am Kayla's classmate. And what's your name?

* Ash: …I am Ash. Uhm…I am…how can I say this in words…B-b…best friend of-

* Kayla: -Of me!

Sophia looked at both Kayla and Ash with a surprised face.

* Sophia: Oh? But you two seem so…different!

* Ash: Mhm.

Kayla looked towards another direction in response.

* Sophia: Anyways! Do you have any powers? And are any of you really good at science and math? Or perhaps history?

* Kayla: Oh! I guess…I am okay with them.? I’ve been researching like crazy to discover what knowledge power I have.

Kayla frowned.

* Kayla: But no luck.. I ended up with this…Fire thing that I didn't even know existed. But I could help you if you wanted to ask me about powers. I could help you discover yours.

* Kayla: On the other hand, Ash is really good at history and literature. Like, really great. Not on an expert level, but I don’t know anyone else who might be better in our class. Even though they don't know their power yet.

Kayla turned to Ash for a second.

* Kayla: You didn't expect to have powers at all, right my friend?

* Ash: ...Kayla…

Sophia happily but awkwardly asked them.

* Sophia: Can you help me in my studies too, please? I will give you something in return for helping me!

* Kayla: I've been waiting for you to ask that!

* Ash: …um…

* Kayla: Sure! We will help in both powers and studies. We'll make sure we will be able to get to the Heroes' League in no time! The only thing I don't know is whether Ash is going to join or not…

* Ash: …uhh…

* Sophia: It's okay if Ash won't join. I have you at least!!

Ash looked awkwardly at both Kayla and Sophia.

* Ash: I didn't even say anything..

* Kayla: Hey, I don't think Ash has decided anything yet. They need time to think things through. Let them be.

* Sophia: Oh?

* Kayla: I'm just trying to say that they didn't do anything yet. Don't assume that they refused to help when you didn't get a reply.

* Sophia: The "ummm" and "uhhh" do not count? I thought that Ash was not okay with this by saying that…

Ash has no clue what is the right thing to do. Ash looked at Sophia confused and she noticed. (goofy ehe)

* Sophia: ..Hm..? So what do you think then?

* Ash: I will-

Sophia jumped up in excitement.

* Sophia: YOU WILL HELP?!

* Kayla: Let them finish already..

* Sophia: I just-

* Ash: -think about it.

* Sophia: I really hope you'll decide to become part of the heroes league! EEK I'M SO EXCITED!!

Kayla is slightly annoyed Sophia notices and quiets down.

-time skip-

## Scene 8

Ash, Dorothy

Ash is sitting in their room. Without a doubt, Ash feels bad about themselves being this way. They couldn't let go of the thoughts Kayla had about the future (also Kayla in general today.)

* Ash: I feel like Kayla will be upset if I chose not to go in the Heroes' League... She really seemed very enthusiastic about both of us going.

* But… Kayla didn't even get the kind of power she wanted…

* Moreover, how would I even join if I actually wanted to, when I'm just mistyped as someone with power??!

Ash just got a flashback when they were inviting Kayla somewhere.

Meanwhile, someone is just walking in their room without them noticing at all..

* Also..I gotta think of a hangout spot, since I ended up inviting Kayla somewhere.. BUT WHERE?! I didn't think this through at all! I just mindlessly dug myself into this situation! I've never invited anyone anywhere before, how am I supposed to begin this? Arrggghhhh!!! I should have waited for Kayla to invite me..

* Dorothy: ..seems like lil' sibling is having troubles again?

Ash got stunned by Dorothy suddenly showing up.

* Dorothy: Huh, this time, your expressions are different. You seem rather frustrated instead of sad...Wonder what happened at school today…

* Ash: …I…I i-invited Kayla somewhere…and…

* Dorothy: You invited her somewhere? That's.. Amazing! You are really improving! Where did you invite her?

* Ash: …I don't know…I'm so dumb…I didn't think this through…

* Dorothy: Rookie mistake. But I don't think she would mind at all. I think she's satisfied just by hearing you invite her.

* Ash: Oh, shut it..!

* Dorothy: So you have no idea where to go with her, huh…okay…don't worry, I'll help you. I'll give you a few suggestions.

Ash nods.

* Dorothy: Let's see…maybe you should take her to a more special place.

* Ash: a special place?

* Dorothy: Ah, what I exactly mean by this, is a place that might create a good situation to talk. You need to feel when that situation is. Your instincts are great anyways, so I do not think you have a problem with that. Also, I'm going to stick to places that Kayla might like.

* Ash: ...Okay…… I don't know if I should have a good feeling about this…

* Dorothy: My ideas are the following: First, you could choose to go to an amusement park, since it's usually fun for everyone. Kayla can't be an exception. Knowing her personality, she would be thrilled.

* Ash: …Isn't that a bit…expensive?

* Dorothy: There comes a time where money doesn't matter.

* Ash: But if I invite someone somewhere I must pay-

* Dorothy: Glad you learned that from your mother, but please, does a few pieces of green paper matter more to you than your friend?

* Ash: …No…

* Dorothy: Maybe I can suggest you watch a movie with her…eh but you don't have a lot of time to talk only before and after the movie.. I wanted to say the beach as well but the weather has been ridiculous lately so I don't think that was even worth mentioning…sorry for that!

* Ash: Movie, huh? Well…

* Dorothy: Well you two don't share the same favorite genres, I know. This is why I told you to go to the amusement park. Or do you want to watch a thriller or horror?

* Ash: N-NO! I cannot handle those.. Those kinds of movies make me shiver just by thinking of them. I might end up constantly walking out of the screening room with lame excuses…

* Dorothy: You mentioned Kayla gets bored by children's and romantic movies. Why not go to the amusement park?

If you talk about money again, mom might give you some to help you out. I'm talking about the worst case scenario, don't worry, I'll give you some of my saved dollars.

* Ash: Y-...Y-you don't have to do that…

* Dorothy: What do you say? Does the amusement park sound good to you?

Ash nods.

* Ash: …Thank you…for helping me out…

* Dorothy: Anytime! We're siblings, after all.

Dorothy stands up and Ash smiles at Dorothy.

* Dorothy: Also, you should smile more. You look so beautiful like that.

Ash got flabbergasted.

* Ash: …I-...

Dorothy starts heading towards the outside of the room. She stops for a moment and says something before she steps out of Ash's room.

* Dorothy: Oh and also, half an hour before dinner will be ready. Don't forget.

* Ash: Okay..

Dorothy walks out, and Ash is alone again.

* Ash: A theme park, huh? Let me check the nearest one…

Ash takes out their phone and browses the web.

* Ash: It says it's 3 hours away...uhh…how will we get there?…Hm…

Ash thinks for a moment after they turned off their phone screen.

## Scene 9

Kayla, George, Katelyn (Kayla's and George's mother)

Kayla and George are watching TV together. Kayla had something on her mind while watching the TV.

* Kayla: Uggghhhh….I still cannot believe that I didn't get the power I wanted to get.!

George looked at Kayla.

* George: You discovered your power?

* Kayla: Yeah, I did…

* George: Oh wow! Would you tell me what it is?

Kayla looked at her hands angrily. She clutches her hands.

* Kayla: \*sigh\*... George…um…Why am I different..?

* George: Are you talking about your ADHD again?

* Kayla: No! I’m talking about my power.. It wasn't what you all expected for me to get!

* George: BUT WHAT IS IT?!

* Kayla: It's not knowledge power.. It's something that is like...how can I explain this…Fire…and explosions?

George got stunned right at that moment.

* George: …Fire? And explosions? Well, that really isn't what I expected.. We all have knowledge power but…oh, wait! Maybe mom can explain this. I'll be right back.

George walked to the parent's room. Katelyn, aka George's and Kayla's mother, was inside the room, working on a computer.

* George: Mom?

Katelyn, still looking at the computer, replied to George.

* Katelyn: What is it, darling? Be quick, since I'm busy with work.

* George: Kayla got unusual powers today, even though it should've been a knowledge power..

Katelyn turned around with a small shock on her face.

* Katelyn: …What do you mean by "unusual powers"? What are her powers?

* George: Kayla said it's something related to fire and explosions…Mom do you know why this happened?

Katelyn looked at George like she saw someone dying in front of her eyes.

* George: Mom…?

His mother was completely stunned.

* George: Mom, are you okay??

She came back to her mind, but she fearfully said her next words.

* Katelyn: …We…we need to talk, George…now…

## Scene 10

Kayla, George

After half an hour of George and Katelyn talking, George came back with an unusually gloomy face radiating total shock, just like his mother did. His eyes' spark was gone for that moment.

* Kayla: Hey George, you're back! You missed a lot from the show…The king was almost killed by those lazer knights, but his daughter saved him. You know it's so funny that the gremlin-...

* George: Hey Kayla.

George sat down next to Kayla with a worried face. He gently smiles at Kayla since Kayla always managed to cheer up George a little with her playfulness. Kayla looks at George.
