Rhadamanthys sat by Alistair.
"You alright, kid?"
"No. Matt broke my sister's heart, and hurt my other big sis."
"I saw. Listen, you're the only one I can trust, kay?"
"What?"
"Buddy, you gotta trust me. I know your sister well. She and I were best friends back in London."
"She neve-"
"Trust me."
"Ok...."
Alistair perked up slightly.
"I have a little mission for you. It will make your sister, your other big sis and Matt over there happy."
"What is it?"
"Do what it takes to get them to like each other."
"How? Matt just hurt my-"
"You can do it, buddy. I have faith in ya."
"But-"
"I'll give you a nice treat. A ride on the back of the unicorn."
"You promised me that when you saved me."
"And now I gotta move the reward up. Listen, if you can do it, this time, you get a ride on the unicorn."
Alistair weighed the benefits. This stranger had saved him from dying at Selina's house, and he was now convincing him that he wanted to make his sister happy. And he got a free unicorn ride.
Any kid would love riding on the back of a winged, black unicorn that shot lightning.
"Deal."
"Sealed mate, sealed."
Rhadamanthys patted Alistair on the back, and watched the kid go.
"Heh....I remember when I was like that. Hilarious times."
