[ page 2!!!!

yeah she's definitely going back to the haunted house. ]


We did. Now we can go home.

[ a quiet look around... ]

I'm going to miss it here.

Yes.

Well... it's not exactly "home" yet. But I'd like to make it a proper home. Like this was.

What will you do, Laudna?

Oh... [ she doesn't know what went on between them, but ] I think that's a good idea.

[ surely, they would want to make up with laudna, too. ]

... Originally, I was going to wish to become the new master of the Shadows House. But I realized that was short-sighted... that the wish would be meaningless if I died, and that the house could be taken back from me by those with more power.

So instead, I wished for the elimination of the power that was used to control everyone's minds. If their minds are free, then they should be able to leave or fight as they choose.

I can't guarantee anything. But I think that most of the children will support me... nearly 100 of them. And... Karma and Scien are going to help me, too.

For once, it feels like the odds are in my favour.

Really? [ if her face could light up, it probably would. there's growing warmth in her voice. ] Thank you, Laudna. I'll remember that.

[ at some point kate's just going to use the "summon mg gang" nuclear option and obliterate her enemies. ]

Once the house is mine, I'll have to invite you over.

I think... if I could have one more wish, it would be to turn the Mirrors House into a home like this. One where you and the others can come and stay anytime, for as long as you want.
