Anna's smile faltered a little at Basil's comment but she hid it with a laugh, "Yeah well.... maybe I don't always do as well as you think."

She smiled again as Basil mentioned their adventure, "It is pretty sneaky... Actually, you mind if we go by the library? I know they do study hall in there but I think it would be useful for you to learn some first aid. If you get hurt and I'm hurt as well and am unable to help you myself or I'm unconscious from blood loss it would be good to know you could stop the bleeding or make sure neither of us get a nasty infection... I know it's not as fun as practicing fighting but you did so well yesterday that I don't think missing a day would hurt."

"Anna!"

Anna paused in her stride and glanced over her shoulder, Jace was catching up to her and Basil and his Guardian was Jordan apparently, he'd probably been reassigned when Jenna had.... She avoided that thought and blushed a little, "Umm... hi Jace."

He looked a little embarrassed, "I'm not interrupting right? I mean, I know your watching your ward but do either of you mind if I walk with you?"

Anna shrugged, "I don't mind if Basil doesn't... We're just headed to the library. Weren't you hanging out with Rae though? Won't he have something to say about you talking to a Dhampir?"

Jace shrugged, "Rae's a friend, not my keeper.... So, what do you say Basil?"

Sebastian frowned as he watched Gunner come in, yep... he was looking pretty dark and gloomy too... if not worse than Anna. He only seemed to get worse when he nodded at Gabby and followed her out. Seb shook his head and finally spotted Serena. "They left you behind huh? Don't take it personally, they both looked pretty... down."

He shook his head, "Do you know what happened there? They were fine before training, a little nervous on Anna's end maybe but fine..." He ran a hand through his hair, it was times like these that despite his excitement to learn to use the stake he wanted to follow after his friends. Something was going on and he was being left out of the loop.

He grabbed his things and headed with her towards the gym. He pulled his mind back to the present with a smile, "So... how did stake training go on your end? Kill any dummies?" He was still a little amazed at how skilled she was. The way she carried herself and the quiet way with which she spoke completely hid how lethal she could be.
