Dick quietly sang to himself as he cut his wrist with a razor blade. "Twinkle twinkle stele mici, cum mă întreb-" He quickly stopped, hearing the bathroom door open.

Footsteps shuffled in, getting closer to where Dick was cutting. He quickly put the razor away, tucking it in his backpack. He then grabbed toilet paper and started to wipe the blood off his wrist.

"Dick? Are you in here?" Came Wally's voice.

Dicks eyes widened as he continued to wipe the blood off. The once white paper turning bright red. When his wrists were mostly clean he grabbed some more toilet paper, wrapping the cuts up. Dick quickly grabbed out his phone, turning on the camera app. He had blood covering the left side of his face from where Rahman kicked him. The ebony grabbed more paper, scrubbing his face throughly.

"Dick?" Wally's voice was closer, right by the stall.

Dick looked at himself in his phone, the blood was gone from his face. He smiled, even though it was still red on his pale skin from scrubbing. Dick weighed his options, he could come out of the stall now, and say he didn't hear Wally, or he could wait until Wally left. If he left. Wally was extremely stubborn.

"Wally?" Dick replied, biting his lip.

"You're in here? The English teacher told me to tell you that there's no class today, being the first day of school and all. But when I got to the classroom to tell you, there was some blood on the floor." Wally said.

Dick flushed the toilet, being inconspicuous, and opened the door to the stall. Walking out, he saw Wally give him a tell-me-what-happened-or-ima-beat-'cho-ass look. "Hmm, I don't know... I didn't see that when I was in there." He replied.

Wally gave his friend a chalant glance but didn't press. Surely Dick would tell him when he was ready.

The bell rang for the end of school as most of the students rushed out of the building, wanting to get home. Some people, however, stayed put. These included Artemis Crock, Kaldur'ahm, and Connor Kent.

Artemis rolled her eyes and looked at the time, 2:59pm. She had one minute to get to swim practice. She ran through the halls, dodging students that were still making their way out. She finally made it to the pool room as a voice rang out.

"Artemis Crock?" Ivy asked in her sweet voice.

"Here!" Artemis yelled, running into the changeroom. She speedily changed into a green one-piece that Ivy had so graciously provided.

Artemis exited the changeroom, surveying the swim team. There was a male teen with dark skin and blonde hair, another with pale skin and black hair, and a girl with orange-ish skin and fiery red hair with bangs. Artemis made her way over to the girl.

"Hi! I'm Kori!" She outstreched her hand, smiling.

Artemis rolled her eyes, another peppy redhead. "Artemis." She introduced herself.

This was going to be a long hour.
