Happy with his new skill, Nate followed after Professor Jodi. "Are we reporting everything that we witnessed?" he asked.

"Hell no! Why would I bother wasting my time doing that? We have to go and show you are unharmed; it was a request from Princess Chloe," Jodi retorted, clearly not pleased with the extra task.

"Guess my wife misses me," Nate thought with a sly grin on his face.

"Fix your face, or I'll increase the difficulty on your next training session," Jodi shot back, her patience wearing thin.

"Hey, can't a man be happy when his wife is worried about him?"

"No," was her instant reply.
