Hi guys! AmericanDemigod here. So, this fic isn't one of my normal ones. This fic is, as you might have noticed, for the Silver Eye, by Laura Hollingsworth. This is my first fic for the Silver Eye so be patient with me. (Some of the characters might change a wee bit for the sake of the story tho...sorry about that...

"ENEL!" Marcus shouted from the library. The red-headed boy looked up from where he was sitting on the swing under the oak, talking to Apen, who was playing with Melly in the grass.

"You should go. It's probably important," Apen said, halting his pettings behind Melly's ear.

"But I don't wanna!" Enel whined, kicking up on the swing.

"Enel get in here now!" Marcus shouted again. Enel groaned while Apen smirked.

"Told ya so." Enel glared as he stood from the swing and let his long legs carry him into the library.

"What took you so long?" Marcus asked, brandishing a book in his hand.

"Swing. Wouldn't stop," Enel lied. Marcus eyed him warily for a moment before shrugging it off.

"Whatever. Anyway, I called you in here because I found something that could have only been you," Marcus said, opening the book he was holding, which was entitled "To Kill a Mockingbird" (If you catch the reference, congrats lol) by Harper Lee, and showing small pieces of peppermint candy canes stuck to the pages. Enel gasped.

"Who got into my candy canes?!" he shouted. Marcus facepalmed.

"You did Enel. And they're all over the pages in this book! Look at this! The pages are all sticky and gross and that'll take weeks to clean up! How many times have I told you not to eat around the books!" Enel cowered.

"B-but I didn't do it! I swear!" Enel whimpered.

"If you didn't do it then who did? Who in their right mind would want to steal candy canes from you of all people, and then purposely get them on this book? It makes no sense Enel! Just take responsibility and own up to your actions!" Marcus set the book down and took a step toward Enel, his nose flaring. Enel took a step back.

"BUT I DIDN'T DO IT!"

"YES, YOU D-"

"MARCUS! LEAVE THE BOY ALONE! IF HE SAYS HE DIDN'T DO IT THEN HE DIDN'T DO IT!" someone shouted from the door. It was Idony, here to save the day again.

"I-Idony, what are y-you doing here?" Marcus asked, cowering like a dog in a thunderstorm.

"I came with the children from to orphanage for weekly book checkout when I heard yelling." Idony was standing in the doorway, hands on her hips and her umbrella lying forgotten on the floor.

" I was only yelling because Enel got the sticky candy cane remains all over this classic book!" Marcus defended.

"Oh really? Why don't you ask him if he did it before jumping to conclusions and pointing fingers? What would Velvare say? Hm?" Idony said, and Marcus hid his face partly behind the book.

"I-I'm s-sorry..." Marcus said. Idony crossed her arms.

"Don't apologize to me. Apologize to him," Idony said, pointing in the direction she believed Enel was.

"Uh, Idony, I'm over here," Enel said, and Idony swiveled her arm to the other side of the room, this time accurately pointing at the redhead.

"Enel, I, uh, I'm sorry for blaming you," Marcus said.

"You're forgiven. But what I want to know is: WHO ATE MY CANDY CANES!?"
