"SHUT UP!" Taylor hissed, as she clamped a hand on Puck's mouth. "Clopin's dog will hear you! That's the last thing I need!" she whispered. "Now listen. Bob confessed that your immortality wasn't an accident. He had done it on purpose." Taylor whispered. It was better to tell the truth than to tell them a lie.

Puck blinked as she explained, pulling away her hand when at last she had finished. He could only shake his head, unable to think of any efficient response to this newfound discovery. Bob had intended for this? For them to have to live for all eternity and watch everyone around them perish eventually?
"Why did he--? Was it because..." Puck trailed off quietly, looking over to Clopin.

Clopin was absolutely dumbfounded, as his jaw hung open. "What...what do you mean?" Clopin whispered. Was it meant to be? For him to watch all those around him die? The gypsy shook his head, not knowing what to say.
Taylor nodded gravely. "Apparently, he saw great potential in you two...not only as a couple..but as something else." she said quietly.

Puck looked back up at the brunette, his pale blue eyes questioning. "Something else?" He whispered anxiously. What was going on now? First they find out that they had a matchmaking unicorn on their hands, and now there was something else??

"Well, it's nothing bad. It's just the fact that he saw great potential in you two...I don't know if you know, but currently, the high school is trying to solve an age-old mystery. People want power. He saw the potential in you two to create peace. Together." Taylor said.

"Oh wow." Puck said, running a hand through his hair as he leaned against the bar for support. "This is a lot to take in..."
Shaking his head, he turned to look at Clopin. "So, basically, we have to...to make peace, throughout the entire school. Together."
Puck was beyond worried. New responsibilities seemed to be in the making, and things looked a bit dim from his point of view.

Clopin stared at Taylor, before turning to look at Puck. "Together?" he whispered. "So...so wait. We're immortal, and on top of that, we have to make peace, and prevent those who want power?" Clopin asked. Taylor nodded. "That's the gist of it." she said. "I'm sorry I had to break this to you. It's a lot.." she said, trailing off. Out of nowhere, she jumped up, flipped over the counter, and began reorganizing the wine bottles behind the counter in alphabetical order. She then calmly walked back to the other side of the counter, back to Clopin and Puck.
"What was that all about?" Clopin asked.

Puck blinked a few times as he watched the girl rearranging the bottles, only to return where she had been standing a few seconds before.
"Um...OCD much?" Puck tried to laugh, but the present situation was making it difficult.

Taylor sighed as she sat back down. "I'm...I'm sorry about that.." she said, biting her lip. "It's something that's affected me since I was really little. Sometimes, I do it without even wanting to, like right now. Especially when I feel horrible, I'll go on freak cleaning frenzies." Taylor said.
Clopin nodded, as he put a hand on her shoulder. "Hey, it's alright. Don't feel like it's all your fault, Taylor. It's better that you told us the truth, instead of keeping your mouth shut." he said. The girl slowly nodded.

Puck moved closer to the girl, nodding to what Clopin had said. "He's right, Taylor, it's better that we know about all this before we're suddenly expected to do anything about it."
Puck frowned to himself, wondering just how they were going to accomplish all this. they were only teenagers...weren't teenagers supposed to be worried about their clothes and getting dates for the prom? Instead, they were dealing with restoring peace to an entire boarding school.
"Well...what do we do now? I think that we may need to have a little talk with Bob, Clopin," Puck said firmly.

"We do." Clopin said with a nod, as he turned back to Taylor. This was a lot for Clopin himself. They were just juniors...juniors who were supposed to be worried about drama, clothes, dances, grades, all the common stuff. But here they were, he and Puck, two boys turned immortal, and now they were expected to restore peace to the school?
"Can you help us find Bob?" Clopin asked. Taylor nodded quickly.
"I knew where they were all along. Follow me." she said, getting up from her chair. Taylor then scurried across the room, until she reached a hidden door. Clopin followed her as well, until he too reached the door.

Puck followed shortly behind, stopping as they reached the hidden door. He suddenly realized that he had no idea just what exactly he would be saying to Bob. He honestly wasn't too upset about the whole immortality thing; it was just the going behind his and Clopin's back that upset him. He wasn't truly close enough to anyone where it would matter, besides Clopin, and of course that was taken care of. He waited for Taylor to go inside, trying to think of something good to say.
