The first to come to Sharon's defense was not Britney, but was instead Justin Liao. Whom forced himself between Penny and Sharon, because her triad towards the girl just didn't sit right with the boy. He put a hand out and shouted, "Before we jump down her throat, at least hear her side of the story!" Justin pleaded with her. Because he knew that, despite how fucked up the situation is, they needed to get the whole picture.

Having someone on her side, even if it was most likely temporary, was all that was needed to keep Sharon from blowing up on the girl. She took a step back, and just softly said, "Oh, I did the only thing that was needed to stop all of this." She crossed her arms, and looked off to the side, "And I only found out about all of this a few months ago! How about [i]you[/i] start asking your little leader these before she learned about this [i]far[/i] before I did!"

In the midst of all the yelling and screaming, not a single person paid attention to Rita. Which worked in the favor of Britney, whom quickly swiped a photo off the wall and put it into her purse while they were all distracted. Through, when it was thrown open, the first two to investigate were Kimberly and Lynette. Whom were all too happy to take a look inside.

Instead of something creepy, or anything that would disturb the kids... inside were books. Many, many, books. Lynette was the first to grab one, before going through it. It was in a strange and indecipherable language... yet she recognized some of the words. It was almost like a mish-mash of different languages. Still, near-impossible for her to read. At the moment.

"What are these?" Kimberly asked.

Sharon just walked over, before shrugging and flatly saying, "These are texts from Glint."

"... Glint?" Kimberly asked.

"Oh my goodness," Sharon said. "Britney has you all under a rock..." She groaned as Britney was put more and more in the spotlight. 

"Brit, what is she talking about?" Claire asked, hesitant about her old friend.

"Look, Sharon, now is not the time..." Britney quickly closed the distance between them, and put a hand on her shoulder, which was brushed off by Sharon's hand. 

"Tell them about your buddies in the Watchers, tell them all about your hand in all of this!" Sharon gestured around the room. "Tell them about the League, and their plans for you all, tell them [i]the truth,[/i] Britney."

Britney's heart was racing, as everything was unraveling before her. [i]Sharon, please, I know what you're thinking, but it's just going to make our lives harder in the long run.[/i] Britney thought to herself as sweat trickled down her cheeks.

"... Sharon, [i]they are[/i] watching," Britney pleaded. "I want to tell the truth, but now isn't the time!"

"Well, when is it going to be the time?" Claire stepped in with a raised eyebrow.
