“Damn” I groaned, “Must have left the door open last night.” But then I wandered. What had happened last night? All I could remember was helping Ash pull a prank on Artix, and Warlic shouting at me to stop my laundry from destroying his research. As I got up, I heard a loud explosion outside. I went to the window, and saw Dr. Voltabolt. Falconreach’s resident mad scientist and dentist was cackling madly in the wreckage of his lab. He was talking about “destroying magic” and “taking over the world”, the usual drivel.
I went to get some breakfast, half walking, and half stumbling down the stairs. I felt unusually dizzy for some reason. Must still be a bit tired, I thought, but as I saw in the mirror I saw none of the usual symptoms: Bags under my eyes, slouching, and well groomed hair. (With most people, their hair is usually messy when the wake up, but I’m not most people.) I just assumed it was a trick of the light, and went down into the kitchen. It was empty. Usually Warlic was here cleaning up the mess I made from dinner, but though it was clean, he was nowhere to be found.
