Leo couldn't get a word in edge-wise as Serina laid a handful of insults on him, suggesting it was all his fault that something was wrong with the cooking box. His fault! Just because he missed a few classes!? Honestly...

He was just about to retort, fully armed with his own defense, when he was distracted from Serina's blatant yelling. He glanced past her as a bright light caught his attention just over her shoulder, he could see it very clearly as it suddenly popped up in a puff of smoke. A small flame had emerged from the oven's opening, even some of it coming out of the stove top above, quickly travelling across the surface of the appliance and beginning to look for other things to latch onto. "Fire," Leo whispered softly to himself as he first saw it. Then, finally registering: "FIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIRRRRRRREEEEE!!!!!!!" he yelled, hopping down from the counter and physically grabbing Serina's shoulders to turn her around to see. Standing there for a moment, he was almost stunned at the sight, before he immediately began running around the kitchen, trying to find anything to put it out. Of course, he'd never used or heard of a fire extinguisher in his life, so he was more just opening cabinets and tearing everything out of them in desperation.

Allegra only seemed to be more and more entertained by Adam's increasing discomfort. To her, it was all innocent fun and games. She knew she wouldn't hurt him or wrong him and yet his uncertainty made it all the more entertaining. As he mentioned how little fun it would be to find himself betrayed as she became allies with Serina the next day, she gave him a look as if he should know her better than that. Which, of course, he had no reason to. But Allegra was fiercely loyal, a part of her personality that few saw. Often it took months, sometimes years to reveal itself and yet this was a very unique situation. She needed a friend, and a smart one at that. Kipling having won the first challenge practically put a target on his own back as the perfect ally for her. "I couldn't be allied with someone like Serina even if I wanted to. Being in her mere presence makes me want to vomit at times." Harsh words, and yet she followed them up with a glittering smile, amusement once more filling her features. "Listen. There's four of us. Clearly we're going to be dwindled down to a final two at some point. Leo's clearly bait for first out, he'll probably forget the rules and leave the house to chase a butterfly or something and BOOM. Done. Serina, however will be much more difficult. If we're together, at least, we can make sure we're the last two standing. If it's me and Serina I might voluntarily throw myself out the window." She sighed softly before returning her eyes to Kipling. "You?" She paused. "You might actually be legitimate competition. And that's fun."

Her eyebrows rose as he declared it was a deal and a very pixie-esque grin spread across the young girl's face. She released his arm in order to shake the hand attached to it in a very business-like manner before he returned her attention to the brick phone thingy. "Yes!" she exclaimed softly. "How do you get it to work? I think I was sick the week Willoughby went over them in class..." Clearly this fact was a huge disappointment to the girl, who's large eyebrows furrowed as she began to examine it when ----

"FIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIRRRRRRREEEEE!!!!!!!"

Allegra immediately looked up with alarmed eyes, suddenly able to see the smoke that was beginning to waft in from the kitchen. She turned to look at Adam with wide eyes before scrambling to her feet silently and running into the other room.
