Magnus smiled. “How many of them have wrestled with a kraken?”

“Wha…Hey! Wait!”
Hunter followed after her.

“Or ignored the Siren’s calls?” Magnus supplied.

“A kraken… huh. I think the principal mentioned something like that in one of his stories, not like I would ever listen. Hmm… come to think of it…”
She pauses, before shaking her head. She gives a wry smile, seemingly flicking all the information she had recalled out of her head.

“Well, I need to get going. Not as free as I once was you know. Catcha later.”
Is she really a noble of the Rogner family? Her behavior was definitely not elegant, nor befitting the status of one of the Three Houses.

Hunter got down to floor one, trying to spot Ferris.

“Nice sister,” Magnus said to Terry, before knocking on the door of the Teacher’s Lounge.

Behind Magnus and Terry, you see a Ferris storming out of the building.

“?”
“It’s that loud-mouthed girl… what’s she so mad for…” Terry sighs.

“Somehow Hunter annoyed her. Something about cash,” he said as he waited.

“Come back! We need to talk! It’s not what you think!”
Hunter ran after Ferris.

She’s at the courtyard, behind the school building, facing the garden and gymnasium.

“What was I doing?” She sighed, closing her eyes. She sits down by one of the benches in the courtyard.

Getting impatient, Magnus simply opens the door and enters the Teacher’s Lounge.

Hunter tapped her by the shoulder.
“Boo.”

“Man… I shouldn’t have just left Elise like that… I was acting really childish…”

She looks up, and feels a hand tap onto her shoulder.
“Boo.”

She immediately had multiple shivers down her spine and jumped upwards._
“Uuuargh!”
And she looks at Hunter, who has just successfully surprised her…
They stare at each other for a moment…

James went downstairs, glimpsed James and Terry outside the Teacher’s lounge, and headed towards them just as Magnus entered the room.
“What’s up with him?” He asked Terry.

“Pleaseeeee…Pleassseee do not run away. I just want to talk, is that okay?”

You see 3 teachers there, one including Sara.

Sara, a young brown haired lady and a stern-looking man, blonde hair in his army uniform…
“Oh, Hunter, what brings you here?”
Sara remarks, still writing furiously on her papers. Huh.

She looked at the pleading boy, before looking away at the ground, averting his gaze. She crossed her arms and starting tapping her left foot.
“What about?”
Her tone was harsh and unrelenting, but her eyes do seem to show something else.

Hunter slowly sat next to her.
“I…am SO sorry…I shouldn’t have offered to pay for your books like a idiot. And I wasn’t talking anything bad about you…It’s just…I wanted James to tell me how to apologize good, which now that I’m saying it sounds even dumber.”

“I’ve gotten myself into bad situations including somehow maybe joining a gardening club?”
Hunter held up the gardening club paper.

“Point is, I ran away from these problems, but not anymore. I understand if you don’t forgive me, but all I wanted to say is that…I am sorry.”
