Serena's father's eyebrows knitted together when Sebastian spoke, saying that he was not going to take Serena away. He stood talk and glared at the young man, "I don't believe you have much of a say. Serena is not anyone's guardian. She is merely a class project," He looked at the headmistress, "Is she not?"

"Yes..." The woman agreed, "The Wards are only for the year... Although, they can be made official after graduation."

"Which has yet to happen," The man added. He placed his hands on Serena's shoulders, "Not to mention, Serena is yet to be an adult. Meaning, I have the right to take her where ever I so desire."

Serena gasped when Sebastian's anger flared, sending her back into his head. She sat there a moment before being able to pull herself back into her own body. Just as Sebastian started to compulse her father, Serena moved out of her father's hold and pushed Sebastian gently, hoping to stop him, "Stop Sebastian!" She wasn't angry that he was using compulsion but she knew he wasn't in the state of mind to. It could something that simple that pushed him right over the edge of insanity. She looked at him, "Please..." She didn't ever want to see that happen. It had been bad enough for her when he was on the cusp of it...

Her father seemed to get over it quickly, realizing what had happened, "Look here young man," He said ferociously, as Gunner and Anna arrived, "You don't know what you are dealing with," He pulled Serena's hair off her neck, showing her scars to those around her. She closed her eyes tightly and held her breath. She heard the headmistress make a notable gasp. She guessed that her secret was not yet campus knowledge, "Did she tell you that she is suffering with an addiction? That we were putting her through rehab before she ran away? That I found her in a room with multiple men when I made the decision to send her there?" He glared at her, "Shadow-kissed or not, you do not get a choice in what my daughter does or does not do."

He wrapped his arm around Serena before dragging her away from the small group, "And I think it best that you stay away from her."

Gunner nodded and stood slowly, following Anna outside. Everything kind of happened in a blur, which might have been do to the fact that he wasn't fully there. Sebastian didn't seem to impressed by something, Serena looked her normal uncomfortable self, Anna was making sure everything alright, and then all of the sudden the man, who Gunner found out was her father, started to nearly yell at Sebastian. He looked at Serena as he moved her hair, showing off her neck that he just realized she always covered, and now he knew why. It looked at though it were almost all scar tissue from Moroi bites, including the new one from Anna. Then Serena was being whisked away. Gunner looked at Sebastian, "What is happening?"
