Chapter 99

Scott and Mitch made it a point to stay up later than the others, simply because Kevin had told Mitch about something he'd read in one of the Counsel books, called 'April Fools Day'.

The first day of April, which was today since they were up past midnight, was a day filled with pranks and tomfoolery. When Mitch told Scott about it, as they'd laid down for bed, Scott was all for it. Partially because of the drugs the doctors put him on, but also partially because he knew everyone was in a sour mood after the day's events. Scott had snuck Mitch out of the house to go to the store for things they might use, although technically Scott wasn't legally allowed to drive because of his leg.

Luckily everyone in the house had been asleep at the time, but unfortunately the sound of the front door closing woke Avi up. He debated just going back to sleep, but knew that would be a horrible thing to do on his part.
