"Mr. Schuester?!?!" Mercedes couldn't but exclaim when she saw the man standing just a few yards away. He looked at the two children, confused, but motioned for them to follow him none the less.  The two ran after the man, while he closely resembled their Glee teacher, he didn't act much like Schuester, then again they were running from a fire at the moment. 

"Wait!" Mercedes screeched, and Kurt helped his limping friend run after Schuester. 

"Where are we going?!" Kurt shouted.

"Who are you?!"

"Slow down, please!"

These phrases and much more were shouted after the curly haired man, but never did he falter. 

He led them into a forest, they ran into the thickest part, when Mercedes let out a cry and fell to her knees. Kurt was by her side in an instant. "C'mon, 'Cedes, we're almost there, you can do it," Kurt encouraged her, trying to help her to her feet, but she couldn't move.

"Go, Kurt," she pleaded, "Save yourself. I'm not gonna make it outta here, but you can.

"No, either we both live or both die. You're my best friend, Mercedes. I know you can do it," Kurt begged, oblivious to the tears falling down his face. 

"Schuester is gone Kurt, if you run you can find him," Mercedes reasoned.

"He wouldn't leave us, you know that," Kurt responded looking for their supposed friend in the woods, but he was nowhere to be seen. 

"Run, please Kurt, if not for yourself for-" she was cut off by the sound of what seemed to be a hundred feet pounding on the dirt ground.

Just as the two were about to completely give up, Schuester returned, but not alone. He had brought with him... glee clubbers. Finn, Puck, Mike... each strong enough to help Mercedes and Kurt back to the camp. 

They were quick and staccato in getting the two weaker teens through the thick of the forest, Mercedes being basically carried most of the way. Once they got to what seemed a cliff-face, with ivy and vines and covering it,  did the group slow down. 

Before Kurt could question their motives, Shuester walked through the stone. No, no, I'm being serious here, he walked, through a stone wall. Crazy, right? Well, you'll never believe the next part. 

They threw Mercedes through the wall. They just, picked 'er up, and threw her. The teenage girl fell right through, and the other boys held back laughter at the shocked expression on Kurt's face. Of course, the young Hummel noticed almost immediately, and shot icy glares at them before putting a stoic expression on his face, and stepping through the wall without any hesitation.
