Damien arched an eyebrow, his grin unwavering. "A 'caged demon,' you say? Sounds like a job for the school's discipline committee."
Ethan groaned. "C'mon, Damien, man, my man! Don't go all 'Mr. Responsible' on us."
Richie smirked. "Yeah, Damien. Live a little. Break a rule or two. Just loosen up a bit. Who knows? You might even have fun."
With a cheeky grin, Damien's eyes sparkled as he peeked at Evie, who was still looking grumpy. "Fun, huh? Fine. I'll help", he conceded. "But only because I want Evie jump out of her skin at least a dozen times before the night is through."
Evie shot him a nasty look, jabbing her finger in his direction. "You pull a stunt like that, and I swear will—"
"Kill me with your eyes?" Damien said, a playful smirk on his face. "I'll take my chances, darling."
Ethan leaned in and murmured to Richie, "He's got a weird taste, don't you think?" Richie nodded in agreement, replying, "Yeah, they're both a little crazy, so I guess it's an interesting mix, huh?"
Fiona's face lit up as she dramatically threw her hands in the air, interrupting Ethan and Richie mid-gossip. She quickly stepped in between Damien and Evie, who were on the verge of a heated exchange. "Alright, guys, listen up! The team's all here. This is gonna be so epic!"
Evie let out a big, dramatic sigh and mumbled to herself, "Oh man, this is totally gonna disaster."
Ethan and Richie, echoed her feelings at the exact same time, saying, "Chaos, like a total catastrophe."
Damien, smiled eerily like usual suggested, "So, I guess we're all meeting up again tomorrow, right?"
Fiona just kind of nodded her head in agreement, looking super serious about it all.
Fiona's smile was so big, it looked like it was going to split her face in half, and she couldn't keep her excitement to herself. "Guys, meet up at the school's entrance tomorrow night, like, super late, at 9 o'clock, okay? Don't even think about being late!"
And just like that, everyone scattered to go their separate ways.
