Danny's journal
Well Homecoming tonight. Ugh I needed a break really. Been having weird dreams, Kasey's been in them, I really don't understand it at all, I feel so bad I haven't told her I'm Onyx Haze, it's weird. Anyways going to Kate's house for a party before the dance, I was surprised she invited me, she's nice, not that I "like" like her but I'd say we're friends. Geez I haven't written in this thing for so long, never realized how busy I was anyway, gotta get ready, Tonight should be fun, write more tomorrow. Getting a haircut
9:00 AM
Raide Household.
Kasey paced back and forth on the floor of her Cobalt blue bedroom, still half asleep as Adam called her. "Kate's having a party before, if you wanna go, she's invited us"
"No thanks she yawned "still not in the mood, I just wanna go to the dance with you" she made her way toward the bedroom door to go downstairs
"I understand" In reality he didn't really understand why she loathed Kate, her "girl drama" made no sense to him. "see you later then"
"Bye, see ya later" she chirped up a little as she hung up.
Kasey was relieved that Adam didn't linger on the call, she needed to get ready and she had been rudely awakened by a nightmare of that night at the lab.she kept seeing Danny in these ones nightmares too, she knew they weren't but they felt real like it was actually happening and she actually was being attacked again. She couldn't really tell anyone, except...of course, Danny, whom she blew off by ditching school, along with the rest of the table troop. She felt bad and really wanted to apologize, Adam said there'd been an aggressive argument between the two. She was glad her mom let her stay home, but she was feeling better now, well by her standards. Her dad was supposed to be out of the hospital soon according to what her mother had said. She wondered if her dad would remember anything from that night. Can't think about that now, gotta get ready. She went out of her powder blue bedroom, and down the white wood staircase to the kitchen to get breakfast before prettying herself up to be presentable at her first Homecoming dance. Despite everything that'd happened recently she was excited!
Lane Manor
"I'm off to work, big meeting, yes I know it's the weekend" Mr. Lane announced marching across the dining room in his dark gray suit and tan dress shoes, to give a hurried morning greeting to his family. "Have fun at the dance son, AND BEHAVE!, I'd better not hear anything" he remarked sternly. Both his parents were unhappy with his recent attitude, they thought that he was being too rebellious, Sam knew this, but didn't care as much as he probably should, since he'd always been this way. VIPER hadn't been revealed, he had a lead on Haze's identity (at least he thought so). Anyway, his parent's were the some of the richest and most important people in the city so he expected that no big repercussions would come from his "rebellious streak".
"Thanks dad, I understand" Mr. Lane patted his son on the shoulder as San was about to sit down to eat Breakfast, nodding in understanding. Then kissed his wife in between a sip of her coffee. "Goodbye dear, Keep an eye on our kid"
"Hah, Don't worry Hun, Get going. I'll have my eye on Samuel, I'm going to help him get ready for the dance. Have a good day"
"Thank you Em" he said as he walked toward the door followed by his personal attendant as he made his way to his Personal dark purple limo
"Well Sam" Mrs. Lane said finishing her breakfast "You're father and I are letting you go out to that party and that dance tonight, but that means you've I'm helping you get ready, you've got to look presentable, and we've gotta do something about your hair."
"Alllright" He sighed, as he stabbed a sausage patty with his fork. He was used to having to dress up and he understood he'd have to like he did for Formal VT conference dinners, or his mom's fashion shows and photoshoots. He enjoyed the parties, however he preferred to choose his own outfits for school, and outings with his friends such as tonight. His mother smiled in approval, and Sam continued his breakfast dreading the day's preparations. This is gonna be a long morning, but if no one finds the viper suit I'm good. he thought to himself. as he walked back up to his room to check his closet for the compartment in which he'd stashed away the suit. I really need a better place to hide my stuff
Jays' household 10:00
Jason and his dad had just gotten back from a morning workout,"Good work today son" his dad said as they got home. Jason gave a wincing smile.
"Well look who's back, go hit the showers, breakfast is ready when you are" His mom called to them. Jason headed up to his room to put away his gym bag, and quickly looked on his tablet to see another message from Colin. He had almost forgot, it had been a while since they last contacted, but was glad to get a reply back.

I wanted to check in again-Sorry for a late reply. Activity at the base is ramping up VT sent in a new shipment of another shipment of bots to repair and test (Boy these things are complicated to repair they barley have any re, but powerful, no wonder they're selling them to the army) . Apparently, this shipment was supposed to be larger with some updates, but available units are "limited" according to the contractor and Sergeant McAllister. (Wouldn't know anything about that would you?). I heard from mom and Dad that you've got a dance coming up, Have fun, and let me know if you end up with a date bro. If you need anything just let me know, and stay out of trouble
-Colin
He was glad to hear from him, though he was surprised he'd talked to mom and dad before him, he pondered what he'd say in response as he got ready, He needed a shower, and some breakfast, He liked to run for fun, but cardio training with his army veteran dad always took a lot out of him. "Sheesh" he sighed "Well I've got stuff to do" he tapped the top of his doorframe and exited the room.
