Camie's friends finally managed to push themselves to the front and seeing Camie in the fountain made them see red. Emma jumped into the fountain to help Camie up while Topiary and Nylora started pulling on Lula's clothes:

"You bitch!

-Get down here!

-I'm going to make your knees turn the wrong way!"

Lula tried her best to push the girls back and it seemed the crowd had been waiting for violence all along. Some of them started helping Lula while most of them just started hitting the one closest to them. Seeing her friends being grabbed made Camie and Emma very angry. They rushed back towards the crowd, trying to help their friends. Camie could feel her hair being pulled and her face being scratched:

"What is wrong with you all? Most of you aren't even students!"

But no one cared about Camie's screams and they continued pulling her from all directions. Camie hated that feeling and it just made her even  angrier. She didn't care if she was being as pitiful as them, she wanted to pull their eyes out. Seeing a man grabbing Nylora around the waist, Camie did go for him. She grabbed his face and started digging her nails into his skin. The man immediately let go of Nylora and grabbed Camie's wrists. He held her so tight that he managed to make her let go. Camie then decided to kick the stranger but it was without counting on reinforcements coming.

Two pairs of arms grabbed Camie from behind while the other man continued holding her hands. Camie started struggling and she bit the arm closest to her with all her strength. She felt blood in her mouth and the stranger let go. However the next second two other people grabbed Camie even tighter. She couldn't move at all at that point and she could feel all the rage exploding inside her. She struggled even more while screaming insults at the top of her lungs. Her limbs hurt terribly at that point but Camie couldn't feel anything because of the adrenaline. More and more arms were surrounding Camie and she could feel that she was getting out of breath. However just a second later she suddenly felt everyone letting fo at the same time:

"Ah!

-It burns!

-My arm!"

Camie took a deep breath, surprised by the sudden freedom that she had. She got so surprised that she opened her eyes, having not realized that they had been closed. When she opened them, she found herself face to face with glowing green eyes. Camie had no idea how Théa got there but seeing her made her very ashamed. Why did Théa have to see her in such a state? This was definitely the worst day of Camie's whole life and she wanted to disappear in a hole. She wanted to run away as quickly as possible but having her adrenaline suddenly drop, she couldn't move her legs. She couldn't move at all and just stood there, petrified.

"Théa!"

Lula finally came down from the fountain. She didn't even look at Camie and rushed towards Théa:

"I am so glad you're here. We were just doing a peaceful gathering when Camie and her friends showed up and started insulting and hitting us out of nowhere! Did you hear them? They are savages!"

The glance Théa shot Lula made her immediately stop in her tracks. She didn't even dare touch Théa and her hand stopped in mid air:

"Théa...

-Don't call me that. Did you really think that you could turn this your way?"

Théa looked at what was left of the crowd:

"If you don't leave right now, I am calling the police."

Théa sounded so angry that no one dared make her repeat herself.
