A/N: I've finished the story, so the rest of the chapters will be up soon. :) The following events take place on Tuesday.
**********
Last period, English class. Kurt applied himself to the comprehension questions to force the many problems of BAMF out of his head.
He felt something poke him in the back, and turned around. Amy slipped him something under her desk. He turned back around to look at it.
It was the photograph Kitty had taken. He looked good! 'Whoops,' Kurt thought. 'Not me. Somebody else.'
"Find out what the blue thing is," Amy whispered over his shoulder. "Ask everybody. I'll get Principal Kelly."
Kurt nodded weakly.
**********
It had almost been a quiet day, Kelly reflected. No earthquakes, no field equipment through the windows, and no otherwordly horrors. Then reports of the blue demon had flared up, and this girl was asking him if he knew who it was.
He knew the identity of a certain other blue monster in the area, but the students weren't supposed to know too much about that. He had to admit, he hadn't yet figured out who the demon was.
"So? Do you know?" The girl's annoying voice broke into his thoughts.
"No," Kelly answered shortly. "But rest assured he is no threat to the security of the building and its occupants."
The girl left, looking disappointed but determined.
He really needed a new job.
**********
The bell rang, and Kurt was free to go home. That is, he was free to navigate the fear-inducing crowds in the hallways. So hard to keep that protective inch of space around himself...
"Demons in the bathrooms," voices whispered all around him. The rumor was out of control already. One demon. One bathroom. One innocent life ruined. One miserable boy who deserved to get caught.
"Jack Lander is the blue demon..."
'I'm sorry, Jack Lander. I'm so sorry.'
Amy caught up to him from who-knows-where. "Kelly doesn't know," she told him. "Did you find anything out?"
"Yeah, I know who it is."
"You rock, Kurt!" Amy bounced along beside him. "Who is it?"
'Gott in himmel, forgive me my sins.'
"Jack Lander."
Amy could hardly contain herself. "Okay!" she said excitedly. "Meeting's tomorrow, don't forget!"
"Yeah, I'll be there."
Like he had a choice.
