Homecoming PAARRTAAAYY!! :D

It was only a week after Casey and Nathan had arrived in Skyshatter when they decided to host their own party. Although they didn't really know each other, they had basically invited almost every person their age to their rather roomy apartment that was now decorated with streamers and party balloons. In the kitchen, the counter was covered with finger-foods and sodas.

"There!" Casey exclaimed as he finished hanging up the last balloon. "All set!"

Nathan had been sitting on the couch like a bum as he stifled a laugh. "Man, that maid's outfit seems to fit you better and better every day. Just wear it for 5 minutes."

"No! I'm not going to dress like a girl!" His brother shouted back as the doorbell rang.

Justine stood in the doorway, waiting for them to answer. Shade was coming later because he had something to do.

Akira was walking around the house, and heard what they had said. She had Lunar preached on her shoulder. Akira walked up to the door and saw Justine waiting for it to be open. "Oh hey." Akira said, walking up beside her, holding back a little half-laugh half-fangirl squee from what she overhead from inside.

Cai had also heard the conversation as he appeared by the house. "I hear they're still arguing over who gets to clean up afterwards," He said jokingly.

Nathan laughed. "Nice going. They probably heard you!" He then stood up and opened the door to see Justine and Akira. "Oh hey, it's you! Er.. Justine!" He then glanced at Akira. "And you are..?"

Casey sighed as his face turned pink and he faced their guests. That's when he saw Cai. "Nathan, let them in."

The red-head rolled his eyes and stepped out of the way. "Welcome to apartment 14 C."

Akira started to laugh a little, then stopped. As she walked in she said to Nathan, "I agree what you had said earlier. By the way, I'm Akira.". She walked inside and looked over to Casey and giggle-snorted.

Justine stepped inside. "Wow, nice place." She said examining the room.

Cai followed the two girls in and turned to Casey. "So, I guess Nathan got you to agree to a party after all?"

Casey turned away from Akira out of complete embarrassment. It hadn't even been 2 minutes and his brother had already made a fool out of him. Taking a deep breath, he turned back to Cai. "Yeah. He said it was good way to actually meet people so I agreed. Although it's already taken a turn for the worst..."

Nathan grinned and stifled another laugh. "It's nice to meet you, Akira. I'm Nathan and that's my brother Casey." He pointed to his twin who was facing away from them. "And thank you Justine. It look a lot of hard work, but we got it all fixed up!"

Justine looked out a window. She seemed to be absorbed into her own thoughts, staring down at the parking lot below.

"Don't worry about it. One day, you'll both look back laughing on today," Cai said, smiling.

Akira was standing near Nathan, looking around their place, then looked to Leo, noticing him just near the doorway outside.

Justine stood blankly, staring out the window. She seemed oblivious to everything around her.

Casey finally cracked a small smile. "Yeah, I guess so. But this just so isn't like him. It's weird.. like, him knowing he has powers now has made him so narcissistic."

When Leo didn't answer Nathan, he just left the door open for him and stood by Justine. "Hey, you okay? You haven't fallen off anymore cliffs, have you?"

Justine snapped back to reality. She gave a smile to Nathan. "Don't worry, I keep my promises." She said.

"It changes everyone," Cai mumbled, not intending for Casey to hear.

Well being the super hero she is, Paige totally saved the topic from dying. Hurhur. c:<

Paige walked towards the apartment with prim, forced steps as she tried way to hard to be nonchalant. Walking by a window, she peered at the reflect for a second. Her blonde hair was in soft ringlets and fell around her face. She was clad in a baby blue dress, with a leather jacket to protect herself from the cool evening air. Sighing, she continued towards the house. Word of the party had gotten around, and the poster assumed Nathan would have told her about it anyway, but still she would have declined. So why would she be going now, after such fervent rejections? Because Paige was a sucker for parties, and partycrashing, too.
Finally, she made it to the correct room. Tentatively, she rang the doorbell.
