Shadows Burning

"I'm fine with it." Nariko said, pushing on Zoe's shoulder.

Enya laughed, stepping over her friends then turning back to face them.  "Absolutely!" she said, "Now come on.We'll be late for class."

Nariko sprang up and walked over to Raindrop.

 "Hey, how are you? You still seem like your in pain." Nariko asked.

Nariko sprang up and walked over to Raindrop.

 "Hey, how are you? You still seem like your in pain." Nariko asked.

(?)

( ARGH!! I meant Enya!!!!!! I wish I would stop doing that!!!)

"Well, come on, if you want to ask the nurse before class!" Zoe said, then hurried off.

"Coming?" She called back over her shoulder.

Nariko looked at Enya one more time, then raced up to join Zoe.

   'Why do you think Calixte hit Enya? I think maybe she just wasn't thinking. But, giggling after breaking someone's bones isn't a really good way to say 'I'm sorry', or getting people on your side. I wonder whether she woke up yet or not. Do you think she might have hurt someone else?" Nariko questioned. After a moments hesitation, she added,

"It does seem kind of weird that she just picked up a sword and swung it at Enya."

(Sorry I haven't been on for so long.)

Vinotri joined them. "Also, think about how she thought the nurse was Enya, and she wanted to hit her again. Maybe she's seeing something else, that she would want to hit."

"It might not even be a disease that she has." Nariko suggested. "She could be.... actually....... possessed." As Nariko spoke these words, she stopped dead. It was possible but most likely impossible.

Vinotri was quiet, running the idea over in her head. Calixte, posessed? It seemed crazy, but thinking about it, she realized it made sense, kind of.

"I..I mean she did swing a sword at Enya, and whe all know Calixtewould never really..... Kill anyone...... At least, not while she knewwhat she was doing...." Nariko felt rooted to the spot. "It's possible,but who would want to... You know.... Posess a 14-year-old?"

"Well, we're going to try and find out, aren't we?" Vinotri replied.

"Well, hopefully we'll find out how. I might have a useful idea, too. Who do we know that hates Enya, maybe enough to kill her. I don't really think Enya's made any enemies, though." Nariko said.

"I don' t know anyone who really hates Enya. Maybe they don't like the academy." Vinotri said.

"That's a big possibility. They could hate the way it's run, or they could hate being here." Nariko was thinking hard about people who hated the academy. It just didn't really fit. Who would hate the one safe place for them?

"Or, maybe, what they hate is us...But of course this is all only theoretical and isn't at all probable," Vinotri replied as they entered the infirmary.

Zoe rolled her eyes.

"We don't even know what's wrong with Calixte yet, guys. We don't know if she's possesed or not. "

The nurse noticed them and turned their way. "Are you here to see Calixte?" (She is still in the infirmary, right?)

(Yep)

"Uh, yeah." Zoe said.
