Snap 22: Trouble.

So now Aleks was out cold and his family was apparently out shopping or something. Either way, we would have to go to my house.

"W-wait," I said. "Doesn't he have keys?"

"Disintegrated." Jupiter said, holding a dangling mass f charred metal.

"How exactly are we gonna move this bozo's body without people getting suspicious?" Mars asked.

"Please don't call your brother a bozo," Jupiter said, "We'll just teleport there. I'll take us along."

"If only he just let himself lose, we wouldn't have to deal with this." Mars grunted as we picked up his body.

"Lose? What, he should've lost?" I asked.

"Yes!" Venus said. "You were a fair bit stronger overall, though he was faster by a considerable factor, in a clash like that he would surely lose."

"But he did win. He shouted something like "Times Two"."

"That power up he uses, Lightning Clad, has a technically infinite potential. Theoretically, he could do Times 1 Nonillion and beyond. Limitless, and bound only by his body."

"What exactly is a Nonillion?" I asked.

"It's 1 followed by thirty zeroes. You have Million, then Billion, Trillion, Quadrillion, Quintillion, Sextillion, Septillion, Octillion and finally Nonillion." Mars said.

"And since He's half God, his body is much stronger than the typical human." Venus said. "In fact, merely discovering he was a Demigod allowed him to draw out much more power. Just as you did when you learned you were the Faerie Queen."

And with that we, through Jupiter, teleported just outside my house. Luckily no one was there to see it.

"Alright, knock." Jupiter said.

"But how do I explain this?!" I said completely confused.

"That we're your school friends and your other guy friend collapsed."

"But the issue is... my parents don't let me talk with boys..." I said.

The three of them looked at me with looks of genuine confusion.

"Well, we'll figure something out." Mars said.

I knocked.

The door opened.

"Ai? Who're those people?" Said my older sister Hitomi.

"Uh... they're friends. But, one them kinda... passed out?" I'm no good at lying.

"Hm..you know what Mom, and Dad especially, think about boys."

"But..."

Suddenly she noticed who exactly the boy we're carrying was,.

"Huh? That's that boy I told you about! Y'know, the one who jumped into a truck to save an old lady!"

Oh yeah, it was my sister who was his doctor.

"Uh, yeah I met him at school. We're...friends." I said.

"Well, I don't think they'll mind you having a friend like him. Come in it's freezing."

We walked into my warm home.

"We don't have any guest rooms... Ai, put him on your bed."

"Mine?! But, what about the couch?"

"A couch is no place for a person who's hurt. Plus you like him so it's fine." She said frankly.

I turned red in the face.

"I told you, he's just a friend alright?! A friend!" I said embarrassed.

She grinned a cheeky grin.

"Okay, sure. Now get him in there. I'll tell Mom and Dad what's up."

I dragged him up the stairs to my room. Even though he was out cold, he had the dumbest grin on his face, like a 5 year old in Disney World. So dumb, but there was something nice about it...

*No, no, no!* I thought *He's just a friend! You can't fall for some guy you've only known for a month!*

I finally, after what seemed like a century, made it to my room. I laid him down on the bed. I then sat next to him and sighed.

I looked at his face, still grinning. I poked his cheek and his face reacted. It seems he's dreaming. About what?

"My Queen!" A Faerie said.

"EEP!"

"Don't scare me like that!"

"My apologies!" The Faerie said. But if you wish you can go into this male's dreams!"

"Into his dreams?" I asked.

"Yes! Just lay next to him and let us do the rest."

But... should I do something like that? I looked at him again.

"There is also and added benefit!"

"What's that?" I asked.

"It will allow us to completely restore him to full health and consciousness!"

"Well, in that case, it couldn't hurt then..."

"Yes! Just lay beside him!"

So I did and very quickly drifted off.

Seeing all of these nice covers makes me quite jealous that I'm not yet good enough to make one myself. Commissioning one is expensive too. I suppose I'll have to keep practicing my drawings to get better. In time, in time.
