Taking On The Magical World

I place my hand on my temple, "For the hundredth time Fred, no I don"t ponder what is behind the door. Also, I do not even really care what is behind the flipping door!"

Fred looks at me and just, so he could annoy me, he says. "You"re a buzz killer!"

"No, I am not!" I say crossly, it seems like his tactics are working. "I am the only person here who thinks before he acts. Without me, you guys would be in shambles."

"You"re still a buzz kill!" Fred says to me again in that annoying tone of his. All the while he is staring at the door like he couldn"t even care less about what I said, and that infuriates to no end.

I waggle my finger at him. "Oh, you are really getting good at this!" I say with a smile on my face, but if you look closer you can see I am shooting daggers at him.

"I see what you are up to there, trying to get me in on board one of your stupid ideas again, huh? Well I am not falling for it, no ser, I am not"

I turn to George and ask him, "George, am I buzz kill?" I put hands up in a sort of gesture emphasizing that I could tolerable anything he says. "Now you can be honest with me, alright?"

George looks back and forth between the two of us. "Why the h.e.l.l are you two, bringing me into your feud?"

Fred places his hand on to his twin"s shoulder. "Come on twin, just be the judge between the two of us. You are the only person who can break this tie."

I too place my hand on George"s shoulder and say to him. "Yeah, tell him I am not a buzz kill!"

George shakes his head and says. "There is no way I am getting into this argument."

"Come on, just answer the question," I plead to George.

George nods his head to himself. "You guys won"t leave me along until I answer the question, huh?"

"Yes!" I and Fred shout.

George lets out a long sigh, "Fine! I would say Caelum is sort of a buzz kill. Now, are guys happy!"

I nearly jump at him for the answer he dared to give. "What do you mean sort of?" I shout at the top of my lungs, at the corner of my eyes I could see that Fred is making fist pumps.

"What! Didn"t you say you could be totally honest with me? Anyways I said sort of, like 40%."

I look at the two of them with my eyes narrowed, all the while shaking my head to myself. "I know that the two of you are working together," I say whilst pointing my fingers at each of them.

"You know what, that is alright," I say waving my hands up. "Let"s go see what is behind the door, but if we die or release an unspeakable evil on to the world. I am blaming both of you. Don"t look at me like that George, you too are included."

"Who knows maybe we will get to face a Manticore, or a Basilisk. I don"t know it could be a dragon or a Werewolf, who even know what the founders hide in these walls." I whisper to myself, but I am more than loud enough for the twins to hear me.

I begin briskly walking to the door, I see that the twins are in step behind, I quickly turn around to face them. "What?" I say to them while spreading my arms wide open. "Are you guys frightened, NOW!" I ask them, with a malicious smile plastered on to my face.

"Well, it is too late now. We are going to do this, like it or not because I am a new sort of Caelum, a cheerful one. So, you might as well get ready to face whatever comes through that door head on."

I continue walking to the towards the mysterious door. I grab the door handle and as I am about to turn it open, I hear a shout from behind me.

I turn back and see that Fred is holding his hand out for me stop. "What is it, Fred?" I ask coolly.

"Ahem, I have put some real thought into it, Caelum and now I have come to see that this is a very stupid idea. You do know how dangerous the school can be, you will never know what might be lurking behind the doorway. So why don"t you step away from the door, huh?"

I look at him with my eyebrow raised and then ask, "And?" As I wave my arm around in a sort of circle like fashion, gesturing for him to continue on.

Fred sighs, "I am also very sorry for calling you a buzz kill. That is not true at all, you are the most fun person that I know off."

"That wasn"t so hard was it, huh?" I say with a huge grin on my face. I take my hand off from the door handle and the twins let out a long exhale.

"Are you guys done admitting your crimes?" I ask them.

Fred rolls his eyes, "What else do you want me to admit, Caelum?"

"Where the two of you in cahoots?"

"Yes, we were. You are happy now! Well that good, now a deal is a deal so get away from that door."

"Fine, you coward!" I walked away from the door.

"You are such a sore loser," Fred says to me.

"Hah! I won in the end, so it does not matter." I say to Fred and then I turn to face George and ask him. "Anyways, George, you never gave me your apology."

I take a closer look at the guy and see that he is pale, "Hey what wrong dude?"

All he does to answer is point his finger at a direction.
