(Sorry, I was at school then I was busy.)
“Explain to me what you and your group is trying to do.” Ruby said firmly.

Zack leaned back and observed.
You better have good intent. I think I can forgive someone for being stupid if they're trying for a good cause. I don't want to have to fight anyone. Please, answer lieke you mean it!
Emma sighed, rocking back and forth on her heels. "Can… I tell you a secret? My older brother… died during the war," For once, her face was filled with sincere emotion, not the product of acting. "I want to help in any way I can to prevent more bloodshed. Sure, I might not be super strong or have the best power, but that won't stop me from doing the best I can to contribute to the cause,"
“… is that what you guys are doing? Trying to stop the next possible war?”
Emma nodded. "Yep,"
“Oh. Then why did you guys have an illegal object? Tell me the truth.”
"I found it in a Zavoem kid's bag, remember? I thought that maybe if we find the source of where she got it, we could shut it down and basically stop the mass production of war machines,"
“Oh.” Ruby said, then a sly smile came across her face, “Is the choice to join still open?”
Emma smiled. "Sure, why not? We need all the help, and the morally ethical people to keep Aidan balanced, as we can get!"
“Then I’m in this now. What’s your plan? The students are lively.”
Zack found himself marginally convinced. So maybe she was just kinda dumb. They'd all been there. It would just have to be remedied. Zack approachd but didn't engage in conversation yet. He was still cloaked.
('remedied' yeah, that's totally not ominous. at all.)
“Then I’m in this now. What’s your plan? The students are lively.”
"I don't know… I'm just following along with what Zack and Aidan do, honestly, and trying to keep them on the morally ethical side. Maybe guide them along the way using my science skills?"
“… make up a believable lie.”
Aidan stood outside the door, listening in to their conversation. Wait….follow along to what I do? But I don't know what I'm doing….this should turn out great…
Zack chuckled to himself, then shut up, praying he hadn't alerted them.
"Fine, fine. I'm trying to work with them temporarily, then depart from the group once we find clues of a war machine factory. Then, I'll go there… and maybe enlist some people to help me blow it up?"
“I’m a pyrokinetic.”
Pyrokinetic? Isn't that….fire? Aidan shook his head.
“Maybe you could say that you were studying illegal objects and made a fake hollow model.” Ruby shrugged, lighting her fingertips on fire.
"Thanks for the idea!" Emma smiled gratefully. "Let's head back outside… I want to get Zack's shitstorm done and over with,"
Shoot. They're coming back out…. Aidan ran from the wall and conjured a rubber ball. He began bouncing it and walking towards where he had previously been, trying to act normal.
“Actually, I need to talk to Melvin.” Ruby said, tucking a lock of hair behind her ear. “I wish you the best of luck, if you need me call me. When you guys are done, call me. We can talk in a cafe or something.”
"Bye," Emma waved back at Ruby, and headed into the hallway. She bumped into a patch of air. "Ow! What… Zack!"
Zack decloaked, suprised.
"Uh…. hi?"
