"Pardon me," Josephine says as she enters the infirmary she walks into the bed where Sera was placed, "Sera, it's Josephine," she draws open the curtains finding her on the bed with swollen eyes.

"Josephine," she greets.

"How're you doing?" Josephine sits on the chair.

"I could be better," she replies.

"Any news?" Sera shakes her head.

"I'm sure you'll get it back soon, just don't lose hope," she tells her, Sera doesn't respond as she stares at her lap, "Here's an idea, why don't you ask John to teach you some self-defense? I'm sure he'd be happy to, after all, it's better to know than to not know right?"

"I'll think about it," she replies.

"Great," she looks around, "Did John not come get you? Ah, never mind if he had you wouldn't be in here still," she answers her own question, 'where could he be? I swear he was on his way here unless-' The chair clatters as she shoots up, "Damn it, how could I be so stupid? Of course, he'd refuse to listen,"

"Josephine, is everything alright? You look pretty worried about something," she says.

"It's nothing," she picks up the chair, "I just forgot that I'm picking my boyfriend up from the airport, I've got to go," she opens the curtain, "Hope you feel better, see ya,"

"Thanks," Sera says as she hears the clicking of the door, 'she's not a very good liar. Who was she talking about?'

"Excuse me," Josephine approaches a student who's a friend of Zeke's, "Have you seen Zeke anywhere?"

"Not since earlier, he's usually outside during lunch. Why?" the student questions.

"No reason thanks," she speed walks away toward the stairs. Once at the bottom she throws open the door and sprints around the building, 'where are you?' she peers around a corner.

"How come I've never seen you b--?"

"There!" she takes off, "Please let me make it on time!" she races toward the discussion.

"Stop it!" she yells upon arrival, nothing happens. She looks around, 'was I to-' she glances over finding him unconscious and bloody, "Zeke!" she runs over scanning over his injuries, "Damn it John!" she curses as she activates her ability hovering her hands over his torso, "I know what he did was horrible, but you didn't need to take it this far," she winces as Zeke's injuries begin to transfer, "It seems he's decided," she clenches her jaw, "I need to prevent him from continuing," Zeke starts coughing as his eye's open slightly.

"Who's-" she deactivates her ability.

"I don't like you one bit, but I can't just leave someone injured alone," he blinks in confusion, "Think before you act, do that and you can prevent this stuff from happening," she grabs his arm placing it over her shoulders, the other around his waist, "Let's get you to the nurses office," they enter the school on their way toward the infirmary, straggling gazes follow them, bringing fourth conversation. 'Is it impossible to mind their own business? But even so, I don't blame them', she clicks her tongue, 'I need to put a stop to John's attacks before it's too late,' she enters the infirmary.

"I apologize for bothering you soo late Doc," she apologises.

"Again!" he states activating his ability, she gulps back her fear, "If it's John again I'm going to kill him,"

"It's not," she says, he stands up facing her ushering her toward one of the empty beds, "I found Zeke near the West Courtyard on my way to the dorm," she places him on the bed, "I've healed him as much as I was able to, but it seems the attacks he received were quite extensive,"
