"I'm bored." Mariana groaned, fidgeting with chain of the black light that hung above her. It was that time of summer where there was nothing to do. The only problem was boredom.
"Me too." Carl played with Mariana's hair as he thought of things the couple could do. They've done practically every single thing a teenager could in Chicago, and it was barely the middle of summer.
"Well what should we do?"
"Something spontaneous."
An ideas popped into Mariana's mind.
"How spontaneous?" She spoke in a mischievous tone. Although Carl should have taken this as a red flag, he dismissed it due to a desire for adventure.
"Anything really, there's nothing to do, like at all."
Mariana excitedly crawled off of her bed and to her vanity. She opened her drawer and took out a pink envelope. She'd been saving it since the day she got home.
"Open it."
"What is it?"
Mariana rolled her eyes, "Just open it Carl."
Carl hesitantly opened it. He carelessly tore the flap of the baby pink envelope, quickly opening to see its contents. He pulled out two tiny slips of paper, each with a decorative picture of Disney characters.
"Let's go to Disneyland Carl, it'll be amazing. We can ride the ferris wheel, and eat with the characters, and stay at the fancy hotel." Mariana dreamingly carried on about her Disneyland fantasy.
"Alright."
"W-what?" She stammered.
"Let's go."
"Really?"
"Um, what part of let's go do you not get Mariana?" He spoke in a jokingly way, making sure not to upset Mariana and let all hell unleash.
"I thought I'd have to convince you and beg."
"Nah, seems fun. Don't have anything else to do. But how are we supposed to get there? Hm?" Carl raised an eyebrow, entertained by the stumped girl.

"Shit." She slumped down a bit, biting her lip as she tried to think of a way to get from Chicago to California.
"I'm kidding Mar, I can just book us a flight."
"Um, you're like fifteen, how are you supposed to book it?"
"I have money." Carl grabbed Mariana's laptop, which was adorned in stickers. He picked on the zumiez sticker that was peeling off.
"How?"
"Did you not forget I sold drugs?" He said in an obvious tone.
"Oh yeahhh, what happened with that?"
"Long story short I didn't wanna do it anymore so I got pistol whipped and they took my clothes." Carl shrugged, acting as if it was a thing for fifteen year old boys to experience.
"Yeah, just another day in the normal life of Carl Gallagher."
"Anyways, about this trip."
"We need to plan it first."
"Or we could just be spontaneous about the whole thing?"
"Christ, Gallagher, you're so white." Mariana laughed.
"What's wrong with white?" Carl put his hand to his chest in a playful manner.
"Nothing," she chuckled, "you're just acting like one of those gentrified white kids who take pictures of lakes and mountains while they're finding themselves on a road trip. Basically, everything I wanted to be but can't because I'm Hispanic."
"Well, we're gonna do it anyway. Just like those fucking hipsters." Carl really did hate hipsters. Mainly because their "poor aesthetic" that they'd pay thousands for and get appraisal, Carl would be laughed at for the same thing when he was younger.
Mariana crawled onto the bed and wrapped her arm around Carl. "I really do love you Carl Gallagher." She looked up at him.
"And I really love you Mariana Mendoza." He kissed her forehead. "God, we really are couple goals."
"Shut up." She laughed.

Darius proved his mettle and showed everyone his potential when he attuned to both the aspects of fire, the royal element, and blood.

Grim Beginnings
For most, ghosts and monsters were fantasy. For Tessa Byrne-Reyes, they were a constant in her daily life as a reaper. The legendary gods and creatures of mythology were, to her, historical figures. From a young age, she carried the weight of the world on her shoulders, possessing what she saw as a curse but what her family considered a gift. It was her birthright, to use her abilities to guide the deceased to the afterlife of an eternity in peace or in torment. Her classmates viewed her as "the fainting girl" who would pass out in the middle of a lesson with inexplicable injuries. She experienced each death in the town of Belmont Falls, from the mundane to the gruesome. A gunshot wound in the gut, broken ribs, her heart ceasing to beat for several minutes. No one understood what caused these incidents but over the years, she gained a reputation for being abnormal. While Tessa is the freak of Belmont Falls, Fin Belmont, the charming rebel and son of the richest man in town, is her polar opposite. Knowing each other for years but never saying more than a dozen words between them, one night changes everything, thrusting them into each other's unfamiliar and daunting worlds. Together, with the help of her best friend/his ex-girlfriend Elena, they begin to unravel secrets about their town and their pasts, learning that some secrets are better left buried and grudges can be held for centuries.
