"Shhhh!" One giggled.

"In there!" Another whispered.

A girl opened a closet and they threw her inside.

"Quickly, lock it!" A red head said harshly. The others listened and locked it.

"Let me out!" Ellie yelled. "Why would you do that!?" She began to panic. "Zero, unlock it."

You don't need me.

"Zero I-"

I'm just kidding. I can't unlock it, they wedged a chair under it.

Ellie was irritated. It was terrible how some people were just so horrible to her.

What jerks.

"HELP! DR. COLLINS!"

They can't hear you.

"DR. COLLINS, PLEASE! PLEASE!"

Ellie stop.

"JACK, DR. COLLINS, LET ME OUT!"

Ellie.

She began hyperventilating. Small spaces weren't her thing. All this anger built up inside her so she decided to let it out the only way she knew how.

"Zero, do your thing."

Off he went. He flew through the hallways, scouting out the students. He found one in Collins' office, snooping around.

Here's one.

The door to the office locked and the boy was pushed back with great force. He fell unconscious under the desk. He found the others and terrorized them, pushing, flashing lights, spilling hot coffee.

"More," Ellie whispered.

He flew around, knocking tools off of shelves landing on them. The screams echoed throughout the building as Zero locked the doors. He left them all in shock. He headed back to Ellie, taking the long way.

Look who it is.

"Leave Jack alone, Zero."

Just this one thing.

The chair flew out from underneath Jack and he landed on the floor. "Whoa!" He yelled. "Who did tat?" He got up and heard the screams. "Zero," he said to himself and ran off.

Wow, these kids learned their lesson.

He showed Ellie the damage. The kids crying and bloodied.

"Stop. Leave. I d-don't want to see them," she whispered. Guilt had swept over her. For once she was the monster that everyone believed she was. It was her fault.

Jack and Dr. Collins ran down the hallways, shouting for Ellie. The blue glowing from under a closet door blocked with a chair gave away her location. In one swift motion Jack removed the chair and Collins opened the door to see Ellie pale and shaking. He went to help her up but she pushed him away.

"It's okay El, It's not your fault."

She shook her head. "I told him to."

They looked at her in disbelief. "You didn't do it, Zero did it," he attempted to calm her.

How is it my fault?

"They locked me in here. It's my fault I made Zero do it." She began to silently cry while gasping for breath.

"Jack, go find Mrs. Maney, the old woman that came here with these kids," Collins instructed. Jack nodded and left.

"El-"
"I'm sorry! I'm so sorry!" She yelled at him as the glow from her eyes settled.
