Forever And Always

Chapter 78

Callie had returned back to school, at the moment her and Cheryl were leading the Vixens down the hallway in their uniforms. They were preparing the annual prep rally. Everyone watched them own the hallway, blowing kisses at anyone. Callie blew a kiss at Chuck Clayton, he slammed into the lockers playfully as if the kiss hit him, Callie giggled. She continued down the hallway, suddenly everything went black. Cheryl turned around and to her horror all her vixens were down, having a seizure. She let out a giant scream of horror.

" Help!" Cheryl cried as she ran to Toni's side, Kevin went to Veronica's side and Valerie Brown went to Callie's side. " Help us. Somebody help!"

Callie opened her eyes to find herself back in her room, she got up and slowly made her way downstairs. 

"Dad?" Callie called out.

" Callie?" Dad asked as he walked into view. " What are you doing out of bed?"

" What am I doing at home?" Callie asked.

" You had seizure ay school today," Dad answered as they walked into the kitchen. " I brought you home as soon as Weatherbee called."

"What," Callie asked taken back. 

" All the vixens, but Cheryl all had one at the same," Dad answered. " You should be back in bed resting."

" All of us?" Callie asked.

" Yeah," Dad nodded. " How are you feeling?"

" Okay," Callie answered.

" Would like any tea? Soup?" Dad asked.

" Tea please," Callie answered as she walked to over the living room and sat next to Vegas. After getting some tea Callie put her Pop's uniform to go do a shift.

" Are you sure you can handle a shift today?" Dad asked.

" Yeah, " Callie answered. " If I'm feeling bad I'll come home or take refugee in the Speakeasy." She then left, when she got there she saw Reggie and Veronica just sitting down, they looked over at her.

" Callie!" Reggie gasped, he got up and tackled her into a hug.

" How are you feeling?" Veronica asked as she got the next hug.

" Fine," Callie stated. " How are you feeling?"

" I got a lot to spill," Veronica said.  Soon they all sat down at a booth together and Veronica told them everything. " My parents are up to something, Reggie and Callie. I mean they're always up to something, but they tried to banish me to New York, which is a new one for them. It's like they don't want me around for whatever's coming next." The door opened and the ROTC came in laughing off their asses.

" Oh, my God," a boy laughed as they sat down.

" Has everyone lost their minds?" Callie asked before sipping her tea. " Is Jingle-Jangle suddenly a thing again?"

" That was so last year," Veronica commented.

" I'm not sure it's the Jangle," Reggie informed. " Mr. Lodge's pulling it off the market and replacing it with some new candy.

" New candy?" Callie asked as she furrowed her eyebrows.

" Fizzle Rocks," Reggie answered.

" Dealt by the Ghoulies?" Callie asked.

" No," Reggie declined. " A new gang. The Gargoyles." Veronica scoffed.

" With ties, no doubt, to this godforsaken G&G everyone's playing," Veronica said. " And what, pray tell, is my father's skin in that particular game, I wonder. Reggie and Callie, I need you both to do some sussing for me and find out what you can about these Fizzle Rocks."
