A couple hours later, the news of Cancer's brutal murder had spread across the school. They had been dismissed from classes for the rest of the day, and were all ordered to go back to there dorm rooms, and to not speak about anything related to the death. Apparently talking about what you saw could make you second guess yourself, and make you think you saw something that you didn't. Either way, that can't stop a group of teenage girls.

As Pisces sat down in the common room, stunned beyond belief, she saw Aries and Taurus sneak off to the formers room, and Aquarius went to talk to there Head of House, Alice. Virgo went into her room, as quiet as a mouse. Leo went back to her room too, but I saw her using a worn out rope to climb out her window, to that sleazy Gemini nonetheless. As Pisces failed to find a comfort in the worn out couch, she slowly slid down to the floor, a haze thrown over her eyes.

"No. No no no. Not right now. I-I have to stay here. I have to stay focused." She whispered to herself, her heart rate practically doubling. As she stumbles to her feet, she crawls up the stairs, breathing deeper than she should have been. She graps onto her door knob, fumbling with it, her breathing making a startling rattling sound. She thrusts the door open, and crawls to her dresser drawer, grasping at her clothes, and throwing them across the room, searching for her anxiety medication.

"Um, Pisces?" As Pisces whips around so fast her head should have been spun right off her head, she saw Aries standing tentatively at her door.

"Um-are-are you looking for this?" Aries says as she slowly walks forward, bending down to pick up a bottle of anxiety medication, hidden in a pile of clothes.

"Oh-oh thank God." Pisces gasps as she yanks the bottle out of Aries hands. As she swallows it without water, she almost chokes it up, but manages to swallow it back down.

"Calm down, calm down. Everything is going to be alright." Aries sits down next to me and holds my head in her lap. "Just breath, just breath."

"1, 2, 3, 4" Pisces huffs out as she attempts to use her breathing exercises her therapist had her practice.
