"Who said anything about following Keegan and Des' instructions?" she asked, smiling slightly. "Personally, I wouldn't follow Des' anyway, but if we're going to survive we're going to have to think for ourselves a lot. Although Keegan will probably want to chain us up in a nice safe place until the holidays roll around again." She reflected glumly on this prediction. Keegan had become even more protective since Team Wolf had made an appearance in their lives, which was understandable. But when you consider how protective he was before Team Wolf ... you could see Jez's problem. "If he thinks we're just going to lie low like a bunch of rats all summer," she muttered, kicking at a small rock which bounced into the pond, scaring a few ducks. That only made Jez feel worse.
Suddenly, when Nate saw how the ducklings scattered at Jez's kicked rock, he remembered something from the Headmaster's office that he had to tell. "Erm, Jez?" he started cautiously. She wasn't going to like this. "Tate said that he has to inform the Ministry that I'm an unsupported minor, and if no one can claim me then I'll go into foster care. I don't want to go into foster care! I think I have a plan, though..." he added. His idea was only that: an idea, but it ought to work if Kieran agreed...
