"Oh come on, it matches my eyes, you just don't know REAL style" Rhys said jokingly, dramatically flipping his oddly colored hair. "Or maybe" Rhys started saying, turning his hair a myriad of hideous and eyebleeding colors. "This looks better" He laughed, running his hand through the awkward looking hair.

"My eyes!" Piper hid behind her textbook, then pulled it away and flashed colors even worse with her own hair. She also flashed her skin a bright red, and then changed her eye color to an shade of green that looked like thrown up broccoli. "Now, this- this is real style."

"Pffft, I'm pretty sure if the original mages could see what we're using our magic for they would take away magic forever" Rhys laughed, changing his hair back, then turning his skin shrek green and his hair a matching color. "Now, get out a' me' swamp" He said in a shrek voice.

Piper raised a neon green eyebrow. "And I thought Shrek was bald?"

"I'm not shaving my head for a joke" Rhys laughed "I'm trying to make it blend in" He said, fluffing his hair then flattening it, suddenly turning himself back to normal as he looked over. "Walrus alert, he's staring" He said in a low voice.

"Yeah, he does have a habit with that, doesn't he? Anyway, we'll get Rick to trigger Gervasius and use him to scare Mr. Walrus away. It's like he's bent on making my school year miserable ever since I rejected his sorry self this morning." Piper rolled her eyes.

"Actually, I think I heard Rick got sick, we shouldn't bother him" Rhys told her. "Hey, is it possible to change the colors of other people? Or at least their clothing? Since it's just changing the lights reflected, it should be possible, right?" He said, an idea coming into his head.

"Poor Rick...and, yeah, you can. My mother likes to buy any dress she likes and then just changes it to any color I want. It's really cool- ooh, here, watch." She turned to glare back and Xander, then burst out laughing as his carefully styled blonde hair turned the same cyan as Rhys' had been earlier.

"What?" he growled. "What did you do, Merriweather?"

Ciana saw what was happening, and smiled to herself and pretended she didn't see.

"Nothing, Dritan," she replied teasingly. "Right Rhys?"

"There's something on your sleeve" Rhys said, pointing to a piece of fuzz that was conveniently there for an excuse, then turned back to Piper "I can improve it" He said, turning parts of Xander's hair an ugly swamp green and a neon pink. At this point, a few other people noticed, but didn't say anything.

When Rick collapsed, Erin took him and put him in a "piggy-back" position then carried him to the Medical Wing.
She placed him on one of the beds and called for some sort of nurse.
"Excuse me, my friend is sick?"
