"Look, kid. You're lucky I didn't snap your pelvis bone in half before your girlfriends arrived." Tyrene declared in a serious tone.

Helix looked away from her in shame.

"By some grace or fucking miracle, we're alive right now." She continued.

"And as much as I loathe to say this, you passed with flying colors."

Helix chuckled while scratching the back of his head awkwardly.

"Thank you, master." He said while taking a bow.

"You better thank me." Tyrene grumbled under her breath.

"Damn kids, doing stupid shit and somehow making it work."

She turned around and started walking away but stopped after a few steps.

"Oh. Go see Tilo. He has a joint present from us." Tyrene announced.

"Not that you need or deserve it. Little brat.

I'm going to sleep till I'm dead.

So if you need me, just don't.

If you wake me up, I'll beat you to death with my pillow after gouging your eyes out with the feathers."

Helix shivered, but he was smiling.
