He's there, he sees him. His name is not Jexious Child, but is Jecksious Child. In Jexious's dream, he sees the other child walk up to him and slowly leans foward, but then wakes up.

<Why do I keep dreaming of him?> He has had this dream three times now, unable to understand what it means. Ignoring the thought, Jexious gets out of his bed and takes a shower and readies hisself for his first day of the week, not to mention the least favorite liked on Gaia....School day. Luckily, only three days of school a week in Gaia.

Nothing good about school, everyone stares and laughs at him... he can only think to himself.

<Keep staring, you bloody idiot. I dare you. Continue, and I swear I'll rip your throat out.> The bell rings and his first class is over. Second, third, and fourth period are the same. Fifth period is a rest class. This is the only class where Jexious doesn't care if he gets stared at.

&******** you, douchebag. I hate you too.> ... Okay.....I take that back. Either way, Jexious is in a good mood, today. Today, he gets to find out if he gets his circlet today. The bell rings for lunch.

Jexious gets up from his desk and hurries out the room. He walks by the lunchroom, ignoring anyone who stares at him. He continues to walk untill he hits the Gym area. Outside the doors, there is a line where other people find out if they earned their circlet or not. He steps in line and waits impatiently.

After about fifteen minutes of waiting, it becomes his turn. The woman from behind the table looks up to him.

"Name, please?" The woman asks nicely.

"Jexious Child." He replies, becomming worried.

She begins to read the that lays rested on the table, making a sad face.

"I don't think I see your name on here, Jexious."

Jexious looks down at the floor, almost bursting into tears.
<B-but, today is the day. I swear it is!> He fists his hands, getting ready to crush the table into the ground until...

"Oh wait, here your name. I just missed it."

The lady snaps her fingers, a Circlet of fire appears in her hand. she slowly puts it on Jexious's head.

"Perfect fit. Congratulations, Jexious. You are qualified to be a Druid."

Jexious nearly jumps off the ground, but instead holds in the excitement and smiles.

"Thank you." He says to the woman. She does not reply, only waves her hand at him to go away.

Throughout the day, Jexious ignores the other students and smiles, feeling the warmth of the phoenix rest on his head. He takes it off and looks at it for a moment, continuing to smile. The circlet all of a sudden merge onto the back of his hands. He jumps back and almost screams, suprised from what the circlet had did. He thinks for a moment, then puts both his hands above his face, merging the circlet back together on his head.

As he heads home, he stares out at Barton, wondering about himself and the townsfolk.

<What did I do to ever earn this circlet? I do not deserve it. But then again, they thought I deserved it.>

As usual, he raises his hands to lower the cloud that holds his house. He walks in and rests in his chair in the living room, slowly drifting into a deep sleep.
