"Truth or Dare!?" Xyla asked excitedly, though she didn't really know what she was so excited about. "What do we do?? The game!? What do we do?!"
"Calm down a little," Cassius said in a big-brotherly tone. "For this game, we each take turns asking either Truth or Dare. Depending on what the other person answers, we ask or request something. If the person answers Truth, then you ask a question—one that the person won't be able to lie about. However, if the person answers Dare, then you'll request that person to do something, and they won't be able to refuse. Do you get it…"
He stopped speaking toward the end as he realized, based on her puzzled expression, that he'd already lost her.
"Why don't I show you an example," Cassius said with a wry smile. "Truth or Dare? You answer either Truth or Dare."
Xyla's crystal-clear eyes brightened as she seriously deliberated over her response. "Trut—No, Dare! Wait, Truth! Da-Tru…!"
