Thunderstorm (Attn: All)

[utopiamods]

As classes continue on Friday the weather gets continuously worse until teachers announce that the last class will be cancelled. Screens display the message that all students must report to their dorms but power outages and flickers render them mostly ineffectual. Prefects are instead sent out, armed with waterproofs to make sure all students make it back to their dorms.

Thunder crashes and lightning lights up the sky as the lights flicker and the wind gets steadily louder. Students are required to remain inside, prefects are sent round with snacks and all prepare themselves for a long, wet and windy afternoon.

"This week has been awful! First I got stuck fighting my shadow in the tower, then this... Woof" She wipes her face off with her hands, only succeeding in smearing neon green on them. "I'm sorry. I know everyone told me not to cry anymore."

[swordofzero]

"You went into the tower?" Suzaku hadn't but he had heard about what had happened. "I don't think you should go in them again, but don't worry this is just a storm it will pass soon." He didn't tell her off for crying. He used to cry easily, a long time ago.

"I was there when it all started. I couldn't get out unless I fought it." she shook her head. "No way am I going in there again." She pulled where her knees should be up to her chest, leaving her ghosty tail hanging off the end of the chair. "Woof."

[swordofzero]

"No it is probably best you don't." He stayed near her, "Someone will be coming in with food soon, and hot drinks."

[sobsprite]

"Okay.... Thanks." Sniff. It was a fortunate thing that she wasn't Jaspersprite. Or he might have been bitten.

[swordofzero]

"It will be alright, the storm will stop soon and as long as you don't go in the tower you wont have to fight those shadows again."

[sobsprite]

"Th-thank you..." Sniff. She unfolded herself, and finally 'stood'. "Ah, I'm sorry I'm not as brave as the other Jades... I'm just trying to do what I can."

Suzaku nodded, "I am sure you are trying your best."
