Jackie came in a bit before the bell had rang, slipping into a desk. She had been talking to a few police officers about what had just happened to her professor, the one who mentored her, took her in even though she wasn't going to major in archeology or anything even remotely close to that. The man she had seen as her best friend was now dead.

Jackie sat there nervously, removing her glasses carefully. Her icy eyes showed...sadness. They weren't cold, just very sad and depressing. She was never like this. Even when people pushed her around she had quite the smile on her face. Nothing ever seemed to bother her very much, but this was one of those things that was bothering her. How could he be dead, they wouldn't let her see the body so was it that bad? She had heard there was a lot of blood. So it had to be...that bad.

Jackie looked down, she knew there was going to be a new professor for the semester. She wasn't sure how she felt about that as nervous as it made her. But she was one to just go with the situation and try to make the best of it. She would ask questions and see how good this professor was, it made her curious. Was he worth it? Could she learn as much from him as she did from her mentor? "So you were in Egypt?" She asked, looking at him. She was afraid of talking out loud, especially when it wasn't her mentor she was talking to.

"Did the rumors suffice? That there was something hidden in the tombs? Or was it just...nothing more than in the text books. Regular old hieroglyphics and nothing worth....talking about?" She asked, curiously. She didn't care what looks she got, it would make this class period more interesting. She found talking about syllabus to be boring, she wanted to hear about the actual archeology. Many times had she read about things he had done so she knew his name. She knew any archeologists name that was worth knowing and his name was one of them.
