What was that shout? And why did it sound like Red??

Yellow thought intensely as she speed-walked through the hallways, not caring that she is missing her class. Just like what Sapphire said, she could tell the teachers she was getting a tour, like how she was two minutes ago, so she isn't really lying. Yellow remembered being taught by her parents to never tell a lie, and she lived by that- to never tell a lie.

Yellow took a turn in the hall to one of the bathrooms. Was the shout coming from in the bathrooms? Yellow took a deep breath. She was about to take a huge risk and walk into the boys bathroom. Oh boy.

Yellow huffed out her chest a little to make her look intimidating, but after two seconds she thought otherwise, and made herself to casual.

Yellow stepped into the boy's bathroom, closing the blue door behind her. She looked to the right, and saw a tiled-wall. Yellow took a short breath and looked to the left. Yellow saw the sight of a tall, brown-haired boy with green eyes and a green jacket holding Red against the wall by his shirt collar.

Yellow didn't know what to do, so she stood still and watched. Yellow knew it was the wrong thing to do, but what could she do? If she told a teacher it would do nothing, and Yellow herself has no experience in self-defense.

"Freak!" Said the brown-haired boy. He punched Red in the eye, leaving him with a black eye. Yellow winced at the sight.

"Hah, later, loser!" He said, letting go of Red's collar, making him drop to the nasty ground of the bathroom floor.

The brown-haired boy walked past Yellow, as if he didn't notice her. Yellow heard him mutter 'tsk, another girl in the boy's bathroom'. Yellow shrugged. She ran over to red and went to her knees. He was conscious, but weak.

"Red? Are you okay?" Yellow said. Her words came out faster than expected.

"Yeah, I'm fine..." Red lied.

"No, you aren't fine, you have a black eye." Yellow inspected Red's hurt eye. "Let's go to the nurses office!"

"No, I'm fine," Red said again.

Yellow rolled her eyes. "Come on, Red...!" She tried pulling him up from the ground without hurting him, but it obviously didn't work.

"Fine, let's go." Red said, getting up from the bathroom floor.

"How did this happen?" Asked Joy, the school nurse.

Red glanced at Yellow, who was sitting on a chair near the cot he was sitting on.

"I accidentally walked into a wall." Red lied.

Joy nodded. "I sure get that one a lot." She said, grabbing an ice pack and eye patch. "Kids these days must watch where they are going..."

"Yeah..." Red said awkwardly.

"Here, you can use this ice pack on your eye to clear up some of the swelling, then you can use this eye patch if you would like!" Said Joy, giving Red a soft smile. 

"Alright, thanks." Red said, grabbing the ice pack Joy gave him and put it up to  his eye.

"No problem!" Joy gave Red a bow and looked to Yellow. "You should get to class. Your third period must be starting by now!"

Yellow nodded, and got up from her seat. "Thank you, miss!" She said.

"It's nothing! Have a great day!" Joy said before Yellow walked out of the nurses office.

Yellow felt concerned for Red and that brown-haired guy. Who was he? Yellow shrugged. As if she would know, she just came to this school. Yellow walked to her third period in the silent halls, gathering her thoughts together. So much was already happening, and it was truly confusing to Yellow, as she was never in any sort of drama like this. She considered Red a friend, but she never had a friend who was bullied.

Yellow sighed, and opened the door to her third period.
