"Well, if I die before you, there will come a day, when you will surpass me in age," Dwin countered. "And then - if I am still around as a ghost, you will be able to boss me around, because YOU will now be that all grown up and wise and boring adult," she said. But by then the kid had lost all interest in her and was alread loping towards the lake with an intent to become fancy fish food.

Dwin sighed and trotted after him, until they reached the edge of the caldera, not really looking forward to having her coat soaking wet and idly wondering, if Bronco and Teya would really be upset of having one less hyperactive, impulsive and not highly-intelligent kid, in case he drowned and continued his extreme diving feats in the next world. Unfortunately she had a very strong feeling that - nope - they would not share her sentiment. 

"Before you do that," she said, when she had caught up with him. "Do you know, how to swim? 'cause there is some Big Fish down there that would be more than glad to have you as a snack," she was not entirely truthful with Ponyboy, but after few months experience in the company of the annoying rascals, she understood Teya a lot better. Sometimes truth was not scary enough to make the kid learn.
