Mirror to Dreams

"I don't know, you said it does whatever you want, that has to be nice." Lavara mused.

 

"Yeah, but you can manipulate people. THAT'S cool." Raven smiled.

 

"Uh, I guess you can look at it that way. I've never used it for that, I just play panks on people. Watch." Lavara's face got very still and she looked just past Raven. The whole while her fingers were moving and a soft whistle was coming from her. The light she had put on the ceiling moved down until it was just in front of raven. It transformed into a faceless person who seemed to made of the light and was singing sweetly but darkly. It was actully Lavara singing but you couldn't right away.

 

"See, now that's something I'd like to do." Raven said.

 

Lavara's fingers stopped moving and the light moved back to the ceiling while the singing stopped, "But, the thing is, unlike your powers, it is just a trick. I'm the one singing, the light is just like. I can make it so real you believe it but if reach out to touch it, nothing." she shrugged and laughed, "Not that I have a problem with it, just the reality."

 

"Illusions can be powerful though. You must be a good fighter." Raven complimented.

 

"Thank you, the same to you, you say your a wimp but I can see a fighter in you. You'll be great when you do too." Lavara grinned, leaning back in the chair.

 

"I just hope I get good grades." Raven laughed.

 

Lavara slapped her head in mock fright, "Oh yeah! Oh no, grades, the ultimate evil." she laughed, looking over at them, "Well, you had to be good to get in here, you'll be fine." she winked at Raven.

 

Raven smiled. "Straight A's..... Okay, one B."

 

Lavara gasped and put a hand to her heart, "That's awful." she giggled, trying to sound devistated and failing miserably.

 

Raven laughed. "I know! The world ended completely!"

 

"How can you live with yourself?" Lavara said, starting into fits of giggles again. "But really, those are good grades, you'll do well I bet."

 

Raven was starting to like Lavara. She was just the right combination of funny and serious and she could fight well. "It wasn't all that hard to get them either. Just write down some stuff and kick a dummy."

 

"Yep, of course being smart had to have something to do with is. As easy as highschool is, you have to," Lavara tapped her head," Use this sometimes, if only to avoid detention."

 

"I was a trouble maker." Raven said proudly. "Detention was my homeroom." She laughed.

 

"Ah, it would have been mine but I always seemed to out of there before I could be caught. My friends were not so lucky and were always caught. So I went to dention because they were there and I had nothing better to do." Lavara gave Raven a knowing look, "The teachers loved me, they thought I was tutering those losers of friends."

 

Raven tossed the chocolate wrapper in the garbage. "Good times, good times." She chuckled.

 

"yep, very good times. But this place is cool. And I'm glad we've made friends so quickly. Your cool." Lavara put the bag of m'n'm's she had back in the fridge and flopped back into the chair.

 

"You're not so bad yourself. I wonder what everyone else is like." Raven said.
