 Mrs. Alex Turner *asterisks user* Secret Door
Joshua had been quiet throughout the entire class, mostly trying to understand what the people around him were saying. They all knew hard words! The kind is Dad told him to write down and look up in the dictionary later.
HAH. As if.
Something the Professor said, however, got his attention and he sat straighter on his seat - legs still dangling and pretty far away from the floor. "OH!" Wait ... did he have to raise his hand to speak?! A ickle arm rose hastily. "Mum says I should always be prepared for any circu .." What was the word? AAACK! Teeth clinging to his lower lip, Joshua blushed a bit but stubbornly cleared his throat. He had something he wanted to share! "... anything when I go out to ride my bike alone. Be careful of any cars, people or animals around, wear a helmet and keep band-aids in my pocket!"
Not that Joshua did any of that, but ah well!
"It might work the same way, no? We must be prepared for anything that might happen during the battle! I mean, know those ... protective spells thingies and all!" There were protective spells, right? Pssh, sure. His face grew slightly confused for a moment as he considered what his Mummy always told him. "... I'm not sure band-aids would work in this case.." He added in a lower voice.
HMMMMM.
WAIT! He had just remembered something else!
"I think you should always take a snack with you to the battle field. You don't know how long this battle will be and you'll need FOOD!" He finished with a bright smile which showed the gap in this teeth in its full glory and settled back on his chair. |
