His palisman chirped, tilting his head with what almost seemed like a smile of relief. It wasn't long before another dark-skinned face appeared, their voice soon following.

"He's waking up!" She called out, another face with green eyes appearing beside her.

Viney pulled away, her healing magic disappearing as Hunter winced, sitting up from the cot he was on. He gripped his head with a grunt, Flapjack flying off of him as he opened his eyes in confusion.

"Huh?"

He looked around, seeing students being healed and taken care of by students and teachers. All of them sat on cots, Bump placing an ice pack on Mattholomule's arm as a scratch was across his eye.

Emira cast a healing spell over Edric while holding up his hair, a large gash over his forehead. Viney walked over from Hunter's spot towards a bruised brunette, Georgia smiling nervously over at the healer who shook her head with a small smile.

Georgia winced as Viney placed a hand on the girl's bruised eye and arm, lightly wiping away the blood that continued to leak from her nose. Another girl cast a healing spell over Willow's injured arm, scratches present as they soon disappeared through the torn uniform sleeve.

Hunter gasped, looking around before a frown appeared on his face.

"This– This is an illusion!" He frowned in fear. "Gus, are you–"

Hunter stood up quickly, trying to find his friend before collapsing on his knees, grunting in pain. Viney and Skara looked over at him in worry, rushing over to him to help.

"Woah! It's okay!" Viney smiled as Skara frowned. "Try not to stand so fast!"

"This isn't an illusion, you're in the Healing Homeroom," Skara smiled at him kindly, hoping not to scare him.

"Well, Mr Golden Guard," Bump sneered.

Hunter frowned, standing up as he corrected Bump, telling the principal his name. The illusion teacher behind him glared, the rest of the students eyeing him up and down as Georgia looked at him with a little worry.

"Hunter," The blonde frowned guiltily, Flapjack hopping onto his shoulder.

"We saw you being dragged around along with Ms Hathaway, and the Flyer Derby team was determined to save you," Bump huffed.

Hunter looked back at Skara and Viney, the healer crossing her arms with a smile while Skara smiled nervously at the boy.

"But I am not yet convinced of your innocence," Bump walked closer to the boy. "Where have your scouts taken Augustus?"

"That's the Golden Guard?" Edric raised an eyebrow.

"Dude looks sickly," Emira whispered to her twin, Edric listening in.

"I could probably take him," Mattholomule chimed in, crossing his arms as his scars were now healed.

Barcus coughed before growling, the others understanding him as he said, 'He's not to be trusted'.
