Mia's pov
"So what do we do?" Zoe asked Barrett

"Why you asking him?" LeShaen asked

"I say we treat it like we would if it was a radiation issue. Stay inside, tape off all the windows and doors to limit contamination.There could be more of them out there." Barrett explained.

"So what, we block all the entrances?" I asked

"No, there could be more of them in here too." Barrett said

"Oh, my god. We're gonna die here." I say

"Not your not" Noodle said

"Possibly, but do as I'm saying to improve your chances." Barrett said

"Okay, so now what? Break into twos. Search the building. Make sure everything's locked and sealed. While you sit back here?" LeShaen asked

"I'm gonna try and rig the radio to ask for help." Barrett said

"Come on baby" Noodle said.

"Wait I have to go to the toilet" I said

"Okay I'll be by the stairs ok?" Noodle said

"Okay" I said and gave him a quick kiss before heading for the bathroom. I had just flushed the toilet then I heard someone come in.

"Do you mind?" Mary asked. Thank god it's just Mary and Grover, but in still going to stay in here that looks like a private conversation.

"Are you okay?" Grover asked

"Of course I'm okay. " Mary said

"That didn't seem okay." Grover said I dint know what he was talking about but I could tell he was worried.

"I'm fine, except my brother's trying to follow me into the bathroom. Go. Go." Mary said turning on the water and washing her hands before sighing and lifting up her pant leg to see a bite mark?

"Mary what the hell is that?" I whispered coming out of the bathroom stall

"Whats, what?" Mary asked quickly pulling her pant leg down.

"On your leg, did you get bit by one of those things?" I asked

"Please don't tell anyone" She begged.

"Mary that could be dangerous you don't know what that will do to you." I said

"Please they'll treat me different. I'll tell my brother and he'll fix me. Please Mia don't tell anyone."

"I have to. You could hurt someone Mary" I said

"Then at least give me a while let me tell my brother first. Please"

"Okay"

"Thank you Mia."

"If you start to feel sick come to me straight away"

"Okay I will, I promise"

"Are you okay?" Noodle asked me

"Yeah why wouldn't I be?"

"You've just been very quiet since you left the bathroom" Noodle said and I grabbed his wrist to stop him from walking and turned him to me.

"If I tell you something promise you won't tell anyone else."
"Of course" Noodle said obviously confused, I leaned a little closer to him

"Mary got bit" I whispered

"What?" He whispered yelled back

"We have to tell someone" Noodle said

"I know but I promised that I would wait until she told her brother"

"She could be dangerous"

"I know. What should I do Noodle"

"Give her until we get back, then we're telling" Noodle said

"Ok"

Me and noodle where walking past medical when I heard Violet talking.

"What are you doing?" She said I looked at Noodle then walked over to see Grover and Violet in medical

"Hey. Uh... Found it. I'm not feeling very good." Grover said

"Do you think she told him?" I whispered to Noodle, he nodded before looking back to them.

"Should we be worried?" Violet asked

"No. Um, it's just a small fever, that's all. Seriously, I can just sleep it off." Grover said

"Since when does a fever need hydrogen peroxide?" Violet asked

"Since when do you care?" Grover replied walking off me and Noodle following, while Violet stayed behind

"Guys nows not really a good time" Grover said walking ahead of us fast"

"So she told you?" I questioned 

"What?"

"Mary did she tel you?" Noodle asked

"You two know?" Grover asked

"Yeah I saw her leg in the bathroom" I said

"Ok well hurry up we need to get to her, she's in the music room." Grover said.

"All right, Mary, I got the stuff. Mary? Oh, crap." Grover said seeing the room empty

"Where the hell is she?"Noodle asked

"I don't know" Grover said we all spilt up to find Mary.

"Mary thank god where have you been?" I said finding Mary.

"Sorry Natalie needed my help" Mary said

"That's ok. How are you feeling?" I asked

"I feel fine actually. My ankle hurts a little but that's it" Mary said

"So you're good?" I asked

"Yep"

"Ok well you should go find Grover he's worried"

"Ok thanks" Mary said walking away

"What's his name?" I asked noodle talking about the hamster he has. After I talked to Mary I found Noodle and told him everything was fine now we are sitting on the stairs with a hamster.

"His cage said Mr. Oink"

"It's cute I like it" I said

"Hey, look. It's Mary." Noodle said to Mr. Oink

"Hey, Noodle, Mia" Mary said

"Hey, Mary." We both said

"I See you have a companion." Mary said

"Mr. Oink." Noodle said.

"From Mrs. Schere's room? He must be really hungry." Mary said

"Yes, he is. Aren't you?" Noodle ask the hamster.

"You look dazed. Did you get in my locker?" Noodle asked I giggled and lightly slapped him on the shoulder

"Uh, no. I... I just... I have a headache." Mary said

"I thought you said you where ok Mary" I said

"I am. I just need to lay down." Mary said

"All right. Say good night, Mr. Oink. "Good night, Mary." Noodles said in a high pitch voice pretending to be Mr. Oink

"Night, Mr. Oink." Mary said

"Your an idiot" I said laughing at Noodle

"Yeah but you love me." He said leaning closer to me.

"Yeah I do" I said kissing him.

"Not into front of Mr. Oink" noodle said after pulling away causing me to laugh and put my head on his Shoulder.
