Dana Smith quickly jogged along the path towards the main building. She had just come from the chairman's office and received her black T shirt for outstanding performance on many missions. She was happy to be back on campus after being away on a mission in France for the last six months. She wanted to race up and see how all here friends were.

The mission was exciting but she was more excited about seeing her friends. She reached the door of the main building and was just letting herself in when someone ran up the path behind her.

"Hey Dana," Lauren called, "Congratulations for your black shirt! You really deserved, I heard was you did, it was pretty amazing."

"Thanks Lauren, where's your bro?"

"Errrr, I saw him in the canteen about fifteen minutes ago but he was just leaving, said he had to get something. Have you checked his room?"

"No, I am going there now." Dana pushed open the door and held it open for Lauren.

"I am going up to James' room as well." Lauren answered still smiling. "I need to ask him if he has my history book, I can't find it anywhere and I have a history test tomorrow and I need to study."

They climbed up the stairs together to the sixth floor, and walked along the corridor chatting idly.

"So when did you get back?" Lauren questioned Dana.

"I got off the ferry about four hours ago but I had to take three buses to campus and then Zara wanted to see me in her office."

"So the mission was a success then?"

"Yeah, we found the stolen drugs and some valuables. They were in a museum, of all places!"

They arrived at James' door. Dana knocked loudly. There was no answer but the girls could both hear a CD playing inside. There was a scramble heard inside.

"James?" Lauren asked as she pushed open the door. James was lying on his bed, kissing Kerry. They both sprang apart as Lauren steamed in to the room with Dana close behind.

"Errr, hi Lauren, hi Dana, you're back I see. How was the mission, I assumed it went well, you took long enough?" James said weakly.

He looked at Lauren's face and realized that he was in a very tricky situation. He and Kerry had been caught! Kerry hastily grabbed her pink bra of the floor and put it on. James just looked embarrassed as he pulled his CHERUB T shirt on over his head. When his face popped through the hole at the top, Dana was standing right in his face with a furious expression on her face.

"What is this Adams?" she screamed. "What the hell are you doing? Do you care about me at all? I was away on a mission so you decide to make out with your ex while I am away."
She sobbed, and sat at the edge of James' bed. James tried to put his arm around her.

"Dana, I am sor…"

"Don't lie to me. I know that if Lauren and I hadn't just come in that you would have gone further, all the way. James don't you care? Did you ever really care?" Dana sobbed.

"Well, I have had enough of you anyway. I hate you, you don't love me and I will definitely never ever love you."

"Dana, I do love you, I love you the most in the world." Kerry and Lauren scowled at him. "Well, I mean, I love you and Kerry and Lauren most in the world."

Dana walked up to him so their faces were almost touching. Even though James was ten cm taller than Dana she still looked scary with her face twisted up into the scowl.

"I think you just said that so that I won't dump you. Well, you can forget that idea, you heartless pig." Dana slapped him across the face and swept his feet from under him. Her hands reached out for his neck and she began to squeeze.

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOO, you will kill him!" Lauren shouted.

"Stop it Dana." Kerry screamed at the same time. Their voices echoed eerily over the silence of James choking. Dana pulled his arm in to a lock and twisted. James screamed in pain, Kerry screamed for Dana to stop and Lauren screamed at Dana as well. Dana kept twisting until James' face had gone as white as chalk; and his knees gave out from under him.

"I might let you go now," Dana said as James almost lost consciousness, "But then again, I might not." She twisted James' arm until a loud crack was heard in the room.

James passed out and Dana raced out of the room just as two members of staff rushed in.

"Please help him." Lauren said desperately and weakly as he started to cough and splutter. The adults carried James out of the room as Kerry handed Lauren a tissue.

"I am sorry!" Kerry whispered to Lauren. All the Cherubs who had come back from dinner were standing around in the corridor staring at the chaos. Lauren closed the door. Kerry put her jeans and top on.

Lauren sobbed, " I …I… I think that James fell out with Dana while she was away. He got loads of mean texts and offensive phone calls from her."
Kerry nodded, "He told me," she said as she pulled on her boots.

They walked out of the room and went downstairs in the lift. A staff golf buggy was parked outside and the girls got in and Kerry drove across to the medical unit. They got out and went inside the building. The staff on the desk spoke,

"Your brother went that way," she said pointing down a corridor on the left.

Lauren rushed through the corridor with Kerry following her. Lauren dashed into room six where James was just stirring. The nurse was standing over the bed. She turned and noticed the girls standing next to her.

"It is a very bad broken arm, I gave him some morphine to deal with the pain." she said as James opened his eyes. Lauren gave him a hug and sat down.

"Will he be alright?" she asked the nurse, who nodded.

"Where is Dana? I need to talk to her." Zara, the chairwoman ran in and saw James.

"What happened?" she said to Kerry and Lauren.

"Well, Dana came in and she slapped him and and…."Lauren explained.

"Broke his arm, and she tried to strangle him." Kerry finished.

"Dana Smith?" Zara asked, getting out her mobile. Kerry nodded.

Zara dialled a number and had a brief but intense conversation. "Right, Dana is coming over here now."
