Finally, the bell rang.  Just a few more minutes and Harley could get out of this classroom.  Closing her notebook and her textbook, she sat quietly with a slightly glum expression hanging on her face, waiting for Miss Maeda to dismiss the class.  Meanwhile, she couldn't fight it as much as she tried.  The pain of knowing her brother's life was hanging in the balance, it ravaged her inside.  She tried not to let it show, tried not to let it bother her or the blonde beside her.  She felt bad for being disappointed at her friend, and for an incredibly petty reason too.

"Oh, hello there."  Mr. Felton was a little taken back by the woman's sudden appearance, yet he put on a sincere smile.  This must have been the person Amelia had mentioned earlier.  Letting Sam down carefully, he approached the woman and presented his hand, "I'm Louis Felton, the photography teacher.  You must be here for Samuel.  I heard his parents were out of the country and I was just about to contact them after we brought Sam back to the infirmary."

At that moment, Felton noticed behind the woman a red haired student trudging through the hallway...pale as a ghost and with a troubled look.  Helena was her name, a bright student she was in his class, but she never attended much, if any. "Ah, Miss Helena!"  Hs tried to flag her down.  "I'm glad you decided to join us for once.  I haven't seen you in class lately.  Is everything okay?"

Helena looked at the teacher then to the kid Amelia was attempting to hold up.  Jeez, kid looked like he was smoked.  [color=f7941d]"Yeah.  Everything's cool, Lou.  Just uh...dealing with some issues."[/color]  Helena's voice was quiet and kind of shaky.

Mr. Felton frowned.  "Well, Helena, I would love for you to talk to me about these um...issues, but right now might not be the best time.  Do you mind helping Amelia carry Samuel to the infirmary?"

Helena thought about it for a moment then shrugged, slipping her arm under Sam's and helping him stand.  [color=f7941d][i]Sure Mr. Felton.  I think I'll just carry Patient Zero to the infirmary instead.  Oh no, I wasn't threatened at all by my junkie boss![/i][/color]
