"Medical reasons... what sort of medical situation requires headphones?" Sheriff Desmond asked
"I'm a special case" Michael said
"... Take the damn thing off" he said
"Like I said, I can't!"
"u-um sheriff, he-he really can't" Cal' said
"what-"
"Sheriff, I think we should get back on track here" Vin said from the side
"Haa... you're right, Michael, just get in the cell" the sheriff said
"okay, what're you getting back on track?" he asked
"Let me fill you in" Sally said, since she had been silent all this time, "Basically and in summary, they're done asking about 'why we were in the woods' and now they're asking 'who we are?' in general"
"Got it, go on answer the man, I'll just be over here" He said walking to the back on laying on the bed, "Haa... I am so tired"
"What the- you just woke up an hour ago!" Cal' said
"Yeah, yeah so technically I'm still a patient" He said so relaxed with his eyes closed... Then they flew open and he sat up straight
"Yeah I wanted to ask-" he pointed at his hair "-What is this?"
"What is what?"
"Why's my hair white?"
"That... um, we don't actually have a logical explanation for that, it just kinda happened" Cal' replied
"... You're telling me this just 'kinda happened'!?" Mikey said "You know what? forget it, finish with what you're doing, we'll have a private chat later" He said and closed his eyes.
"Haa... Where were we?" Cal' said turning back to the Sheriff
"Okay, let's cut this, we want to know everything and I mean everything" Jake said moving to the front.
After a little over 10 minutes of explaining,
"You guys found a portal, he touched it, it exploded and gave you guys powers-" The sheriff started but was cut off by Cal'
"We're not actually sure about that piece of information yet."
"-okay, in the course of time an accident happened, which almost killed him and acting on emotions, you guys walked into the portal and appeared here, am I right?" he asked
"Yeah, pretty much" Sally said confirming his summary of the information
"hmm... you just told us vital information in 10 minutes and in all your ramblings, you never said your name once" Jake said, Vin has just been quietly staring at Michael ever since he made his grand entrance.
"I didn't?" Cal' asked
"I thought we already introduced ourselves?"
"Those weren't fake names?" Sheriff Desmond asked
"No"
"Forget it, I just need your thumb print right over here" he said and shoved a thumb print device in front of Cal'
Cal' placed his thumb on it an handed it back to Jake
"Callister John..."
"Yes"
"How old are you?"
"14"
"... No, you're 16"
"... No I'm 14"
"Well it reads 16 here"
"Let me see that" Cal' said grabbing the device from his hands
"Calister John... 16 years old, what?"
"See, you're 16" Jake said grabbing the device back from Cal'
"Maybe it's a mistake, let me try" Gwen said and placed her thumb on the device
"Gwendolyn Johnson... 16 years old"
"What!? but, it's just been 3 months?" She said
"I think you mean 2 years" Jake said
"Excuse me?"
They heard a voice behind them
"What do you mean 2 years?" Michael asked
"It means, you guys saw the time as 3 months, when it was actually 2 years and 3 months, to be precise" Jake replied
"If it has really been 2 years and 3 months then-" He said and looked towards Cal' with his dark eyes shaking
"-how long was I in there?"
"Considering Cal' said you were in the lake for a little over 2 weeks, then you were most likely there for a little over 8 months" Jake said
"Eight- Haa... I was frozen in a lake, for eight freaking months!!?" He started slowly but yelled at the end
"Michael, hold on, maybe it's a mistake" Sally said
"A mistake!? it's a freaking machine, machines don't make mistakes!!" He said getting up
"Calm down first, let's understand what's going on first" Cal' said
"... What is that?" Vin asked pointing towards Michael. They all went alert the moment they saw Michael, with his right arm stretched and pointing towards Cal', he said slowly...
"Calm down?"
"Michael listen to me, we both know what's about to happen and we both know it's not a good thing, so just put down your arm and we can use our words, okay?" Cal' said
"Use our words? Do you think I'm a child with anger issues!?" he said and shot out an ice spike.
The spike flew towards Cal' at a fast speed but, before it could get to him, an earth wall blocked it.
"Were you trying to kill him!?" Gwen asked with her hands on the floor
"Of course not, it was only gonna graze him a bit" Michael replied
"Just a graze? Do you have any idea what your ice can do?" Gwen asked
"What?"
Crack crack
Pow...
"That! is what your ice does!" Gwen yelled pointing towards her earth wall, which froze and scattered into many pieces
"... Ohh, I forgot... Anyways, I'm gonna take a nap" He said and nonchalantly went back to sleep
"I almost lost my life because he forgot he was powerful... What has his brain become?" Cal' said with his left hand holding his chest
"I can hear you" Mikey said
"I know, that's why I said it"
"... Fair enough"
"Why are you so impulsive?" Ben suddenly asked
Silence...
"Who the hell is this guy?" Michael asked
"That's a long story"
"Was that the 'powers' you described?" Sheriff Desmond asked
"Yes, neat right?" Cal' said
"Who's gonna get that off the floor? cos I'm not" Jake said pointing towards the scattered ice on the floor.
"Fine" he said and waved his hands and all the ice disappeared, to be quite honest, it disintegrated
"You can do that?"
"Yeah, It happened when I had eight months to spare"
"... Haa, You guys are gonna a stay in my friends guesthouse till we find a way to send you guys back. When we get there, get rid of this attitude and hide the fact that you have powers, cos he and his family, knows nothing about the supernatural. If you do this right, we'll work faster into getting you guys back home, oh and you have to go to school, Alright?" Sheriff Desmond said
They all turned to Michael and Cal' asked
"So what're we doing?"
"Since when do I decide for you guys?"
"Since now"
"In the two years I wasn't here, who made decisions for you?"
"Gwen, sometimes Lizzie."
"You had Lizzie make decisions for you? No offense Liz"
"None taken" she replied
"How did that turn out?" Michael asked Turning his attention back to Cal'
"Long story"
"Fine, alright lets go"
