The next day at Hollywood Arts
Sinjin walked through the halls feeling a little off. Yesterday had been his first Quickening in a long time and he still felt the rush and thirst he used to get from it. He'd given up head hunting long ago because he felt he was living more in The Game then in the world and he still held to the choice, he'd become so peaceful in the mortal world. Especially here and now, he knew it would end one day and all the people he knew here would leave and he'd have to disappear to somewhere else but he liked being a teenager again, even a weird one that people avoided that kept him from getting to attached he didn't want to have to miss them when they left.
He approached his locker and dialed the combination to take out books he didn't really need and asked himself "I wonder if it's right that I did it all for that little girl?" thinking back to the reason he'd stop playing The Game, only to think of the reason he'd taken up life as a high schooler. "But then I did all this for another little one, a baby girl I had to protect. One day maybe I'll learn to stop playing guardian angel." He said slamming his locker shut and heading to design class. He hadn't noticed the three girls eavesdropping on his self musings.
"Okay that was like past weird even for Sinjin." Jade growled.
Tori had to agree "He sounded so sweet just now maybe last night was some movie thing he's doing? I don't want to ask him yet? I mean they didn't find anything last night maybe there's nothing to find and we'll see it all in some film he shows in class."
"I don't know I have to check the café myself. There has to be some proof even it was all a show. And what was all that about, him playing guardian angel to some baby girl she must be the most disturbed girl on earth?" Jade was pacing back and forth in the hall as she ranted.
"Wow, Jade you sound like you care about his life." Tori noted.
"He sounded so sweet. I wanta meet the baby girl." said Cat.
Jade stormed off towards the courtyard. She exited the doors to find Robbie and Beck already there looking over the area.
"Find anything?" she asked her boyfriend.
"Nada" he answered.
"You got anything Rob?" he called over causing Robbie to slam his head into the table he was under "No, I got… hey." he said.
"Did you get gum in your 'fro because your going to have to cut it off then…" Beck started as Jade chimed in "I'll get my scissors"
"No come look" Robbie interrupted them waving from under the table. They both walked over and laid down under it.
"And I'm seeing what, now?" asked Jade.
"Yeah, Robbie what are we looking at the gum or that burnt spot?" asked Beck.
"That burnt spot is from a lightening strike. Someone painted the top but didn't think to do the bottom if you remember this table was hit with a bolt during whatever happened last night." explained Robbie.
They all got up. "So what does this mean other than we all didn't hallucinate the whole thing?" asked Jade. "Well it means the lightening was real" said Robbie.
"So maybe the rest of it was real" said Beck.
"I want answers" Jade said walking away.
