As Riven, Kat and i were looking in the school for more potential students we heard a thud.

'Hello?' Kat asked. 'What the hell are you doing?' Riven sneered. 'What if its one of those things?' I asked.
*Thud*
I shined my flashlight infront of me. I sighed in relief as i saw that it was a student and not a burned one.
'This way guys.' Kat said, also glad it wasn't a burned one. 'There's still more students down there.' The student said. 'I'll bring them back.' Kat said. 'You can grab any stragglers.' She told Riven.
'W.. Wait.' Riven stammered. 'Don't worry Riv, i wont let you die.' I reassured him. 'Yeah because thats very comforting.' Riven said sarcastically walking away.

As we looked around the greenhouse we were surprised to find Dane there.
'Dane?' Riven asked. Shining his flashlight on him, and then i saw her.
'What the hell?' Riven said. 'Is she okay?' I asked. 'She triggered a trap in Dowling's office, some kind of paralyzation thing. I got her back here, but I.. I dont know what to do.' Dane said. 'Yeah, well, it sucks for her. Come on.' Riven said. 'Im not leaving her.' Dane replied. 'Dane, shes not worth it.'

'What the fuck it wrong with you Riven? First your all "in love with her" and now you want to leave her here so she can get what, killed by a fucking burned one? She cares about you and i know deep down in, your heart, which im not even sure you have, you also care about her. Now you choose, you leave us and go find Sky or something or you stay with us making sure she doesn't fucking die, because if she dies thats on you.' I spat back. He scoffed and almost walked away.

'Oh, please.' Dane said. 'You have to help.' He almost begged.
'Fine.' Riven said.

As I wandered the school looking for anyone who could help me cover up my wound i took a break, leaning against the wall "Harper, why the fuck do you have a wound?" You might ask yourself, well a few minutes ago i got into a fight with a burned one, i lost. Atleast, i almost did. Just as the burned one was about to kill me something or someone stopped it, i wasnt really sure what it was because the sound waves that the thing created hurted my ears so much that i closed my eyes, not a good decision because in the split second i did the burned one scratched me and somehow got away.
And when i tried to look at who saved me they were gone. Also, fun fact: my phone is broken great.

As Dane was making something to make Beatrix better I was walking around the room, obviously very frustrated.

'Come on!' Dane whispered as he was grinding something in one of those grinder things.
'You want a pink pestle and a mortar? You're grinding like a girl.' Riven told him. 'I dont have the time or energy to break down the problematic gender issues in that statement.' Dane replied.
Ruven hummed in reply.

'How are you so good with this?' Dane asked as leaned agains the table we were "operating" on.
'Well believe it or not, Terra, Sage and i used to hang out a buch here. Look i'll deny saying this, but she's not the worst.' Riven said taking thr grinder or whatever its called from Dane.
'I might have led you astray this year.'
'You didn't.' Dane sighed.
'Beatrix is special.' He said.
