Ch12 Pg6

Ben: *striken face* WHAT? You mean… Dad’s… stuck back on the summit!? HOW? He was just fine the last time I saw him!?

Kory: *sighs and looks at both of them* Have you been back to the cottage yet?

Ben: Yeah. How did you think I knew to find you here?

Kory: Zeb knew Aiden was still relatively unstable from being pulled from the mountain. *pauses* You see.. while Aiden cannot leave the bounds of the mountain by simply walking off of it, I tried to find a way to remove his curse by performing.. a workaround…

Ben: …

Kory: He didn’t technically leave the bounds of the mountain, when he left the dimension. In other words… I tried to cheat the curse.

Ben: I… see… And Zeb took advantage of that…. and…. *balls fist, eyes slitting* … What IS his PROBLEM?

Leona: *shrugs* Someone had a bad childhood. Maybe got the switch too many times for putting his hand in the cookie jar?

KJ sez:

That face/face setup ROCKS.

Well, Leona’s comment seems pretty accurate. But Ben’s is what we’re ALL thinking. “What IS his PROBLEM?!”

*sigh* Said that one too many times about my English teacher… right-o.

Aywren sez:

Yep… watch it folks. This is the point where Ben has officially lost all patience for Zeb. XD

KJ sez:

Watch out, Zeb? No wait… more like, watch out, any innocent bystanders! The Golbei will go head to head…

Aywren sez:

Nah… Ben makes sure to keep the innocent bystanders safe as he can.

Agla sez:

’Rampaging into the Cottage, and rampaging out of the Cottage…’

And now Zeb’s got a Mark on him. Which seems confusing, but also the only thing to do. Turnabout is fair play after all.

Aywren sez:

Ben is a very compassionate person, despite also being a person who can hold very angry, stormy, long grudges. You give Ben enough of a reason to feel for someone and he tends to come around. I think he understands that Zeb is hurting quite a bit. But Ben really needs the answer to that question above.

Agla sez:

Yea…getting that answer looks to be the only thing that’ll sort this whole thing out. I wish I could say that a bit of time with a Mark on his head might teach Zeb something, but it’ll probably just encourage him…
