3 months had passed.
The new group of friends had gathered Mia's lectures and assignments as best as they could. Each day the pile grew larger that it no longer fit on her desk so they put it in the corner of their comatose friends dorm. They would speak to her and tell her what was happening outside and then beg for her to wake up. Each time defeated they would retire for the night and so much had happened that Mia was about to step into chaos because she had heard every word uttered. But what made her furious was that after pledging to protect her and confessing his love Dimitri stopped visiting after a month and he was seeing someone new. He had even brought this girl to the safety of Mia's room before he completely stopped coming.

  I finally have the strength to open my eyes. The light coming into my room blinded me, for I had not seen light for so long. I struggle to sit up but I ultimately did. I stood up and walked cautiously and slowly to my desk and started reading and doing all the piled up assignments. I knew mostly everything so I finished 3/4 before a knock upon my door brought me out of my focus. I looked up to see a crying Mar and a girl I had never seen before rush and hug me. I smiled and then it clicked to me, I needed to pretend to have amnesia if I was to get back at those who did this to me and the tramp who took Dimitri. I cleared my throat and smiled before confessing confusingly, "I'm sorry but I'm not sure who you both are but I really appreciate the hug because all this studying was making me want to cry." Mar and the girl looked at each other concerned and then introduced themselves with hesitation, "Hello my name is Mar Jian, I'm in the agriculture department. We met on the train ride here we are best friends you even gave me a pin to show my loyalty and friendship. Oh and I'm a girl. Hello my name is Sarah hue, I'm in the economy department. I was there at the assembly when those animals hurt you. Just because they are nobility doesn't mean they possess the grace and courage like you do Divine lady Mia." I thought quietly for a moment before saying, "I sorta remember the train ride and that is one my grandpa's pin. My grandparents told me to only give those pins to people I make close and trusting friends with. I'm sorry I do not remember the assembly but I could really use some help finishing all this work."

They smile wearily and pick up the remaining books from the ground. Starting on the last assignments to catch up for the day because tomorrow would be Monday.

After we finish all the assignments, Mar and Sarah help me get dressed. They then leave to go get a trolley and I try to separate the assignments by classes. The girls come back with a wheel chair and a trolley. We go to every one of my missed classes and turn in my assignments. We then head to the school medic to get a medical exam since I had just awoken. The results come back normal and Mar doesn't fail to bring up the concern about my amnesia. The doctor looks at me suspiciously then asks what's the last thing I remember and I reply to him, "Just the train ride here." He gives me a concerned look and tells me, " Well it doesn't seem like the amnesia affected her knowledge just people. She seems okay since she doesn't seem to have any brain damage. You are allowed to attend classes tomorrow here are my permission slips and excuses." He turns around and shoos us away. We giggle and comply. The girls and I then head to my divine classes and the professors take us to each section to choose specific in-person materials. We then run into the rest of the gang who would speak to me when I was in my coma. They look at me in relief when Mar explains how the exam results came out. One by one they introduced themselves, " Hello my name is Henry Jackson. I'm in the agriculture department and this is lovely half. Hello I'm Emile cites and I'm in the security department. I really like your long sleek dark hair. Hello my name is Robert Mills and I'm in the Technology department."
I smile at them and then I see the professor come back with a girl who reminds me of what the sun would be like if it was a person. She greets me with a smile and introduces herself, "Hello little lotus my name is Alina Vines and I'm in the education department. It's a pleasure to meet you, I do hope that you feel better after such an ominous experience. If you need anything at all I am here to help." I feel as if my mother was standing in front of me and tears escape. Alina's eyes fill with compassion and she hugs me. I can't help but feel overwhelmed with all the heavy emotions I had been trying to suppress erupting and the tears that seem to have no end. She doesn't look at me strangely or have pity on me, she just holds me and hums a lullaby. I feel safe in her arms and I allow myself drift to sleep.
