The North Evergreens: 9
The next morning everyone woke up because of Evelina walking around the room. She was up from about six or five in the morning.
"What the flip, Green?" - Anya said through walls of sleep - "Its frickin' morning! I was planning to wake up at daytime."
Everyone also got up and, with sleepy eyes stared at each other.
"Why 're you up so early?" - asked Ducya.
"I have been thinking about that well all night. We need to find the key to open it."
"How?" - said Sabrina - "That's question number one. Question number two, why the heck did you have to wake us up?"
"I didn't, you woke up yourself! And about the key, we have a key keeper in the town, remember? Sam the Seagull."
"Oh yes," - said Anya - "that guy. He flew on a plane over the oceans, but now he doesn't fly, because he got into an accident and he got a height phobia, whatever it's called."
"Acrophobia." - answered Ducya - "Some call us and other phobia people in town phobia buds. I have trigophobia, fear of holes, such as bee nests."
"I have thermophobia." - added Evelina - "But it's only for liquids and it's not that bad. But we are talking about the key keeper. We need to go there and ask him about trap door keys."
"I fear he doesn't have the keys to the well door." - said Sabrina.
"Oh, we have another phobia!" - said Evan - "No-key-to-the-door-phobia."
"Haha, very funny Evan." - said Dequisa, sarcastically - "And you have arachnophobia, I remember you told me."
"That's not true! I meant to say-"
"That we have to go get the keys." - interrupted Evelina - "Come on, let's go and find out, what secrets does the well hide!"
To make sure they don't wake everyone else, the band quietly walked out of the building. Some kids were already awake, just chatting or eating breakfast. Everyone looked at Evelina, still going on, not noticing the feasting of others. She went straight to the key keeper's house.
"I can't." - suddenly said Anya - "I just can't. I am hungry. If we don't go eat breakfast, I will kill you."
"Fine. How about Eustace & Finn's Burgers?"
"Anything. As long as I get my food, any place will be good."
The seven happily marched towards the burger shop.
