Izzy arrived at the school, and in searching it for Riley, she found the vampire child first. He was much the same as he always was, sulking in the corner, but he had somehow obtained an enigmatic helmet, which slumped down to cover the top half of his face. It was a sort of vintage football helmet, the kind with only a single bar going across for the face guard, with most of its paint chipped off and only yellowing plastic underneath.

Riley spoke up from behind Izzy as she was inspecting it, "Ah, that. Well, Lil' Vamp solved this problem for us, more or less, so I gave him that for a reward. You wouldn't believe how much he badgered me about it." That honestly raised more questions than answers, but Izzy had more important things to discuss. "I was surprised when he'd lent you the sword. Even more when he went out to save you. Honestly, I had both you and Trevor written off at that point." He said something cold quite glibly, though one could suppose that was part of his charm. "Trevor is fine, by the way. I'd let him rest for now; he's been through a lot, and he doesn't have an immortal body to help him recover."
