[/h1][/center][hr][right][sub] Saturday, October [b]|[/b] Danger Room[/sub][/right]

Ronnie’s attention twisted to Heidi then Uná. Anger and bitterness burned underneath her eyes. Her teeth gritted underneath her lips until a numbness etched across the muscles. The time to walk away had already left, but that little fact seemed to escape the two. In any other situation, she wouldn’t have bothered with any of them. They were social cripples in her eyes. 


She went to open her mouth and reply when several things happened at once. Cleo had come bursting in through the door, ranting and raving about Uná staying away from her. Followed by a doppelganger. Ronnie barely had time to do a double-take before another student’s powers went off. Daniela shouted then twin streams rose to the roof. They struck and fizzled out into a harmless rain of sparks.

Ronnie’s arms instinctively shielded her face. She ducked her body down, worried the building had a short in it. When the student spoke again, her arms lowered and she shot a look at Daniela. This whole fucking school…

The more she spent time here, the worst things got. She doubted that would change. 

Before another word could escape her lips, another student stepped in. She had seen him lurking against the wall like a few of the others, but paid him little mind. 

After the two boys spoke, Ronnie decided she had it with this fucked up circus show. Any information, little as it had been, was all she would get from them. The realization just increased her frustration at the situation. 

[color=#FF69B4] “I do know pieces of this fucked up puzzle are missing and these people,”[/color] Ronnie pointed to those who Uná revealed to be involved. [color=#FF69B4]“Dragged all those here who didn’t go, into their bullshit. And at least one is trying to claim we can walk away but… I doubt that. I wasn’t even here until today and I still got pulled in it without knowing anything.”[/color] 

She tugged up her purse strap and pushed past the collection, making her way to the door. 

[color=#FF69B4]“Also one last thing. Just because some of you didn’t think your lives are worth going back to, doesn’t mine wasn’t.”[/color] Ronnie snapped then left. 

She washed her hands of this group. They weren’t going to help her find answers or even care about their actions affecting others. In the end, Ronnie started to believe her mother was right. The only one you can trust is yourself.
