{Cut to Aruseus' house, he parks in the driveway}

{Cut to inside the living room, Aruseus' mother is reading a magazine while his dad is watching TV}

ANNOUNCER: And it's another touchdown for the Chicago Bears!

MR. PARKER: WOOOOHOOO! Go Bears!

{Aruseus walks in through the door}

MRS. PARKER: Hi there, honey! How was school today?

ARUSEUS: Well, bad at first, but it turned out okay.

MR. PARKER: Oh? What happened?

ARUSEUS: Well, my modular secret got out by accident, but in turn, the new ability helped me save another kid from a few senior jerks!

MRS. PARKER: You got in a fight?!

MR. PARKER: Honey, don't worry. Does our boy look scathed or bruised at all?

MRS. PARKER: Joseph, the boy can take his head off for God's sake...

MR. PARKER: Okay, look. So our son got in a scuff with three guys...and won. It was for a good reason, he saved a kid!

ARUSEUS: Dad's right! Anyway, the kid's name was Lucian. He's a modular like me, but he was kicked out of the house by his father for that...

MR. PARKER: Ouch! Talk about rough parenting. Does he have a home still?

ARUSEUS: Yep, he lives with his brother.

MR. PARKER: Aha, I see. Well anyway, at least you have a friend that shares your pains-

ARUSEUS: Wait! It doesn't end there! I'm in like...a modular club or something!

MRS. PARKER: {confused} They have a club for modulars?

ARUSEUS: Ehehe...no. It's just my circle of friends sometimes meet in the basement in the courtyard, ya know, where Dad's classes were when he was my age.

MR. PARKER: Really? Which room?

ARUSEUS: Hm...I think it was room 114...

MR. PARKER: Mr. Harding's room! Oh, I loved taking his Biology class! Ironic that that's where we did dissections, and now it hosts take-aparts...

ARUSEUS: Um...okay... {chuckle} We even have a girl there. Sooner or later, we're going to gather every modular in the school there. Dunno why, but soon.

MRS. PARKER: Sounds dangerous...what if someone finds out?

ARUSEUS: Pffft...HAH! No one ever goes down there anymore.

MRS. PARKER: ...okay. I'm still a bit iffy, but...go ahead.

ARUSEUS: Will do!

{Aruseus runs upstairs}

ARUSEUS: {to himself} Y'know...this makes me think. I should start up my email show again! I've got a laptop for here, a Blackberry for school, it's perfect!
