I love community meetings. No, actually I don\u2019t but sometimes they are a necessity. I am not a very good diplomat. I have trouble hiding my emotions. I always turn a bright shade of red when I get flustered. The thing I hate the most is that these meetings always end up loud and chaotic. Getting everyone to agree is always a challenge but I think we have a workable plan. We need to get a spy inside the Central Campus.<\/p>\n<p>I went to see Tony after the meeting. He is still angry with me.<\/p>\n<p>At first, Tony pretended to be working on something and ignored me. I said I was sorry and that if I could bring back the Runt I would.\u00a0 Tony stopped what he was doing and through a wrench across the room. He said I wasn\u2019t a very good friend. A friend is someone you can count when things get tough.<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps he was right. I should have kept a closer eye on the little guy. But honestly, I can\u2019t be everywhere at once. I have a great deal of responsibility.<\/p>\n<p>Madie<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today I met with the leaders of our allies to discuss Xavier Boulder and his army of goons.
