Chapter 12

-"So he got away, huh?" Remi asked John, helping him walk to her dorm. John was limping, and was somehow walking with a broken rib. 'I don't know how he can deal with this.' Remi thought to herself, trying to let herself take most of the weight.

-"Yeah. He wasn't even that strong. I'd say he was barely a high tier. Yes that's insanely strong to most people, but I should've been able to take him! It's p*ssing me off that we basically ended in a draw. You know the ability Dizzy Punch?" He asked, trying to take more of the weight. Remi wouldn't let him, and continued to take most of the weight. He clicked his tongue, but didn't resist much more.

-"John, if anything, I'm glad you weren't hurt more! I already asked Elaine to come to my dorm to heal you. She's been cooperative, since she also knows that I'm a vigilante." She commented. Remi helped John up to her dorm, John wincing along the way.

-"I would expect her to be less cooperative, trying to convince you not to go out." John answered, skeptical Elaine was doing any of this out of pure good will, if this was considered good will.

-"She did... Needless to say, it didn't work." Remi answered, shrugging. The shrug caught John off balance and he staggered, wincing at the sudden movement. Remi caught him by the back before he fell, imitating the end of a dance, starting to pull him up, bringing his face dangerously close to hers. Remi noticed late, and her face turned red in embarassment, apologizing. John smirked at her embarrassment, letting himself lower a little before grabbing the railing to help him up. "Are you okay?" The pinkette asked, worried.

-"I'm good. Anyways, like I asked before, do you know the ability Dizzy Punch?" John asked, back under the aid and guidance of Remi. They edged closer and closer to her dorm.

-"I believe I do."

Sera is lying down on the couch, a blanket covering her, while she was busy watching a movie... sort of. In truth, she didn't know what to watch, and was just watching a cheesy romance. 'Then the guy slays the Jabberwocky and saves Narnia.' She thought to herself, chuckling at her own joke. Elaine exits her bedroom, clothes ready to go out, carrying a drawstring bag. 'What's she going out so late for, and with outside clothes and a bag? It's night time, isn't it? My clock can't be that far off, and it's dark outside.' Sera told herself. Elaine walked to the door, and opened it quietly, hoping to sneak out without Sera's noticing. This only made Sera more suspicious, but instead of calling out to her, she waited for Elaine to leave, curious on where she was going. When Elaine closed the door and left, she stood up and walked up to the door, and looked through the peekhole, to see the direction Elaine was going. When she felt that Elaine reached a good distance, she opened the door slowly, walking out slowly. When she didn't see Elaine walking out of the girls' dorms, she looked around frantically, confused. 'What? Where did she go? She wouldn't have had all that stuff to just walk around the dorms.' Sera thought. Then she heard talking near her, muffled, but there.

-"Come --, he ne--- h-lp." Called out a feminine voice.

-"I'm he-r, a-- oka-?" Called out another, which Sera assumed to be Elaine. Sera walked towards the voice, and saw Elaine entering another person's dorm. It seemed familiar, but she couldn't place her finger on why.

-"Come on, he needs some help." Remi said to the familiar blue-haired girl, ushering her inside.

-"Since I'm here, are you okay?" She asked the pinkette, seeing her visible scratches, cuts, and bruises.

-"I'm fine for now, he's in worse shape than me." She answered, bringing her to John, who was just lying on her sofa, eyes closed, left arm on his stomach, his right hanging off the sofa.
