Lillith was flustered. She shook her head, nearly panicking. "No no, please!" she objected. "..if you tell him.. if you tell him he'll come again, and.. we aren't supposed to tell anyone..."

He paused, Tortle already knew though... "What do you mean, you were not supposed to.. Tell anyone?" He began to have a small surge of fear in him, if he wasnt supposed to know, and she told him, would Tortle count him in as one of them? Maybe he would be punished if he didnt report it? "Why.... Why not?" He paused again "Tortle, and, we, some already know! I mean, its not that big of a deal," What would he do? He couldnt stay around her any longer, she was going to get him in trouble... "I.. I have to go".

She grabbed for his hand. "..you have powers too." she insisted, face set.
She was breathing heavily, and now half over the table. Her face was contorted. "..just like us. I know you do.. I saw it.. in a dream.."
She was hurting herself. This wasn't comfortable, not with a cast on, not halfway across the table.
"Please trust me."

He pulled his arm away from her quickly, "Dont touch me!" He stepped back "I dont have any fucking powers! What the fuck, I dont care for your dream!" He quickly stepped back, and again, walking into a bookshelf. He stared at her, he was getting upset again, he had to control himself this time... Had to control his anger, he grabbed the bookshelf with one hand and pointed at her with the other. "Now listen, I dont know what your game is, but stay away from me, Im not like you.."

She was shivering. There were students walking for their table, and now she was stuck halfway across it.
The girl stood up, shaking. She.. but he looked just like the person she'd seen..
And why had she grabbed for him? She couldn't handle being touched herself.
"You use flame." she answered. "You can use heat to burn. I know you can." she swallowed. "..everyone thinks I'm crazy anyway. When you.. when you want.. come talk to me."

He didnt know what to do, people were watching now, listening, this bitch was crazy, she was going to get him collected! "You shut up! I am not like you god damnit!" He looked around from face to face among the students watching "I am not fucking like her!" He said, pointing at her. The anger was flowing now, he turned, and raised his fist to slam at the side of the bookshelf, he brought his hand down and wham, the bookshelf hurt his hand like a motherfucker, he must have hit it so hard that...... Wait, he thought to himself. Staring at his hand in disbelief, the slightest bit of smoke was coming from his closed fist, he turned around and shielded his hand from view, he opened it and began to examine it. Just a little smoke, out of nowhere? He gave one glance back at the girl and started to walk towards the door as fast as he could.

Lillith was shivering. They were gonna beat her up again..
She stood up, leaving the library quickly, face lowered. "I told you," she said, now fully afriad of him. "If you helped me, they wouldn't like you."
She looked backwards, and then moved off for her dorms as fast as possible.. if she was quick, they wouldn't get her..
Mr Tortle was coming down the hallway now, looking very severe. Lillith was in the opposite direction by now, of course..

He stepped into the hallway, good! Mr.Tortle was there, he would know how to handle it, he could help me. "Mr.Tortle, Mr.Tortle, I have to talk to you right now sir, something wierd just happened in there." He said while walking towards the intimidating teacher. Thoughts about the gun toting Mr.Tortle went through his head, "Listen, that girl, from yesterday, she says-"

"Yes?" Tortle answered. His eyes lifted, and widened. A large span of water had taken up the hallway, and Lillith stood on the opposite side. She was pushing back a group of kids. No harm was being inflicted, not really.. but she was still using magic in the halls..
Her fingers were crossed into a an 'x' and her hair was moving around her as the water did. She had tears in her eyes. They were scaring her.. and she didn't know what she'd done to her arm when she'd tried to move her fingers like this again.
She managed to get them off, and pushed down the hallway, heels clicking madly.
"Damnit.." Tortle cursed. He pulled a cell phone from his pocket.

Max stared down the hall in fear, the water... Where was it? Holy shit, he thought. He turned and looked at Mr.Tortle, and the cellphone, the girl... That boy... The freaks, they had to get away fast, or else they were going to be hurt again, maybe worse. There was no choice! "God damnit" Max said under his breath, he started walking towards the water and broke into a run after the girl.

Lillith twisted around another corner.. she had to get out, hide, something.. she didn't even know where she was going..
Why had she told Max this? He was supposed to be the one who helped them.. she wanted to find someone who would help them...
And she was sure it was he who had the flame abilities..
She stopped at a corner in the hallway. Her arm was bleeding through the bandage. Apparantly she'd done something she shouldn't have again..
She fell back against the wall for a moment, caught herself, and tried to run again. Her chest ached, and her throat was dry, but if she stopped they'd kill her.

Max reached the water at a run, and slipped, landing on his back, he got up just as quickly as he had fallen. Tearing down the hall after her, he had to get to her before they did, maybe, if she just gave up this time, she wouldnt be hurt? He had to stop her atleast, the library, the smoke, he couldnt explain it... Maybe she had told the truth? Fuck, he turned the corner and there she was, her arm was already bleeding, "Wait!" he shouted as he ran down the hall after her. His room, they wouldnt expect her there.

Lillith was shaking. She was slow now anyway..
Her eyes went back. She'd made a mistake. He was chasing her, and she didn't know if she should trust him..
She stopped, wincing. Damnit.. why..?
Breathing shakily, and listening for the others, she stopped in the hallway, ready to retalliate if she had to.

He reached her and slowed down, "Come on!" he said while jogging past her, towards his room. Just a little further, just up here now, alright, around this corner. This was it... Did she decide to follow me? Will she be behind me when I get there?

Between hectic breaths and a jostled noise, she followed. The students were following. Why the hell were the students a mob now?
She followed him into the room, keeping a small glass ball of water ready in her fingers in case she needed it. He seemed to be helping her..
The girl closed the door with her shoulder and listened for them to pass.
