Red trembled. She was going to blow! She was going to blow her cover! They would come then, the scientists. They would take her! Red let out a whimper. She needed away from the people. Then she felt a hand in her arm and soon she was being lead through the school once again. No... She wanted to go.... She couldn't say home. She didn't have one. She didn't even have clothes! She stole these ones but soon she wouldn't be able to continue to steal. She needed a place to stay. She had failed everyone. Herself... She had failed herself. But as soon as the girl brought her into the empty room everything felt a little bit okay. She sat down and placed her head in between her legs and took deep breaths. She couldn't let her emotions get out of control. It would be bad... For her and for everyone around her..

Soon Red had calmed down. She closed her eyes tightly and let one tear slide down her cheek. That's all she would let out. She didn't cry and she wouldn't now. I'm completely fine... she thought to herself. After a moment of silence she looked at the girl in front of her. "Who are you?" She asked, her voice was crack slightly and was only a little bit above a whisper. Her blue eyes were red and slightly swollen from crying earlier in the locker room.

Cameron had frowned and started to rub the girl's back in a soothing manner. Wow this girl had it bad. She watched as she hung her head and breathed through her attack. Afterwards Cameron stood and placed her hand in her pocket, fishing around a moment later she brought out a white handkerchief. "Here." She said softly and handed it to the fellow red headed girl. Sighing Cameron took a seat at the desk in front of the one where the girl was sitting. Only she sat sideways and looked back at her. Shrugging Cameron held out her hand.

"Cameron Ellie Tallison, at your service." She said stoically with also a mousy bell quality to her voice. It was strange to explain but Cameron's voice could both be soft and melodic and also dry and dark. Without even waiting for the girl to take her hand Cameron took hers and gave one curt and strong shake before letting go and returning her hand to her person. It sometimes made everyone wonder how such a small frail girl was so strong. Cameron herself didn't know. She never worked out and she only noticed it after her accident. Now she merely stared at the girl, not asking questions and waiting to see what she herself would give away.

Red almost wanted to laugh a bit as the girl.. Cameron introduce herself. A small smile appeared on her lips. Maybe she could make one friend. That was the least she could do. Cameron had a pretty hard grip which was surprising because she was quite small like herself. Red debated for a while if she should tell the girl her name. Almost everyone laughed at her name. 'Who would name their kid Red' or 'that's just a nickname right?'
Red never had a mother. She was born in the labs and had stayed there for seventeen years. It was a horrible place. The least they could have done was educate her in the slightest bit. Finally deciding she could tell the girl she gave a weak half smile. "I'm Red." She didn't have a middle or a last name. She was just plain old red.

Cameron didn't give much thought to the girls' name. She merely nodded. "Pleasure to meet you." She said back. She noted that the girl seemed to relax with it just being the two of them. Also that she seemed more relaxed now. And that she was opening up a little. The panic attack clearly over. Sighing Cameron sat back. It got a little quiet, a little awkward. Cameron didn't really have strong social skills and this girl being all clammed up really didn't help. Fiddling with her thumbs she was tempted to ask her if all her paperwork was in order, and where it was since she had related earlier that she was applying. Though it didn't seem like she had any papers and what's more shouldn't her parents be doing that? But Cameron decided to not ask any more questions. She started to worry about the time as well, classes would be starting soon and she didn't want to be late. But. She couldn't exactly leave this girl here all by herself. Small talk? Nah. Cameron would only ask something inappropriate and stupid. So she merely stared at the girl with an expressionless face.

((Alrighty!!))

Red sighed, it was awkward. She decided to ask some questions. "Where is the office? I need to talk to the boss." She nodded. Obviously not knowing the name of the head person of the school. She sat back and sighed. "And the nearest sleeping area? Oh! Free food? Is there any of that?" She sighed and ducked her head. This merely sucked! She probably sounded so stupid. "Oh don't know what I'm doing.." She whispered

((Do you have a Charlie that can rp in the Cafeteria with Thalia?))

■||Cameron Ellie Tallison||■

"No shit." Cameron said completely seriously. "Look Miss I don't know what's going on here but clearly something is really wrong. This is a school. The 'boss'," Here Cameron lifted up her forefinger and middle finger of each hand and bended them for emphasis, "Is called the Principle. There is a cafeteria where we eat lunch but we have to pay for it unless we made it ourselves and brought it from home. This is also High School, we don't sleep here we sleep at home. Now if this were a college dorm then it'll be different but it's not. Plus we only come here to learn and not to live. Look. Clearly your not here to sigh up to attend this institution. Now why your really here or where your from I don't give a shit. You don't have to tell me anything. But I will tell you that I'm going to skip school today and take you to my home. There you can shower and eat and get appropriate clothes. We can sort out the rest later." Cameron spoke with firmness and authority. She stood and walked over, grasping the other girl's hand and yanking her up before starting to lead her out of the school and towards Cameron's home.

Red leg out a gasp and then her feet were moving quickly to keep up with the girl. This was crazy! She was crazy.. And a bit mean... Gee. Red sighed. She had no one to go to. No one to stay with. She was completely alone. She had nothing. She was a bit thankful that this girl was helping her. So instead of protesting she just followed the girl.

Cameron lead the girl through the school. She ducked students that were all staring rather strangely at her. And she got that. After all, Cameron was the little oddball with fiery hair and now she was kinda sorta dragging another girl behind her who was a little taller and a little bigger then the generally smaller Cameron. Though the girl herself cared little. Her backpack was still on her shoulders and when they passed the lockers Cameron made it a point to stop for like five seconds to make sure the thing was properly closed. Once she was sure she lead the girl out of the school and back into the parking lot.

||Parking Lot. Your post.||

Norman walked into the class and slid into a seat near the window. He let his backpack rest on the floor near his side for easy access and drummed his fingers across the top of the desk. The room was practically empty and it was eerily quiet.

Red sighed and walked into the room. She had a smile bruise on her left cheek. It wasn't too serious. She had her red hair up in a pony tail and wore a pair of worn out blue jeans and a red tank with a black over shirt. She placed her backpack on her chair and sighed, "Stupid kids..." She muttered and huffed. She could kill them and they wouldn't even know!!!... but she wouldn't be able to kill someone. It was way too... cruel and wrong for her. She laid her head down and sighed. Her thoughts roaming... then she began to think about the boy and his smile. She chuckled.

Norman turned his head at the sound of someone approaching and instantly recognized the girl who had come in. How could he not? That red hair was recognizable anywhere - not many people could sport that hairstyle and get away with it, and in a school like this, most girls he found weren't bold enough to try it.
"Is that Red that I see?" he asked, his lips curving up into their usual small smirk.

Red head shot up. "Norman!?" She tilted her head back and sure enough sitting right behind her was Norman. A smile formed on her lips. Her little bruise stood out slightly. "Why hello there," she beamed and gave a small shy wave of her hand.

"Good to see you. What fight did you get into this time?" he asked, sounding slightly amused. While he would normally be concerned, he had seen this girl take on someone who was way bigger than her. He had no doubt in his mind that she could protect herself.

"Same group... Lost my footing. He barely even touched me too!" She laughed. "Now on the other hand, he severally did damage to his hand and into the locker." She laughed harder and sat back. "Broke that poor little fat hand.." She beamed and sighed. Then she blushed and peeked at him. "Oh! good to see you too!" She smiled

((:D))

((Sorry! I thought I replied O: ))

He shook his head as she told her story, his emotions mixed somewhere between shock and amusement. "You sure are something else," he said with a grin, laughing softly. "Sounds like you enjoyed yourself though. That's always good."

Red grinned and nodded. "Yup! I show them every time. Don't know what's with them but them come back every time!" She laughed and sighed leaning back in her chair to look at him. "What you do yesterday?" She asked curiously.

((No worries!!))

"Oh me? My day wasn't nearly as eventful as yours," he replied with a dramatic sigh. "The most interesting thing I witnessed was a thirteen year olds theatrics. Not all too fun."

Red smiled and then blushed realizing she had no idea why that was. "What is that.. If you don't mind me asking.." She whispered

Norman couldn't help but chuckle and he smiled at her. "Consider yourself lucky not to know. My thirteen year old sister was being dramatic, that's all. She's quite the dramas queen."

Red laughed and became interested. "A sister huh? She look like you?" She asked curiously.

"A little bit, I suppose," he said, his expression becoming more thoughtful as he started to think about his sister. "She has the same grey eyes, although her hair is a much lighter brown. It borders on auburn, actually."

"So cool.." She mumbled and looked up at him with admiration. "I wish I had a family.." She whispered. "It must be nice." She added

Norman looked at her curiously, now even more interested in the past she seemed so reluctant to share about. He wondered what could have possibly happened to her, and then figured it was probably best if he didn't know.
"It's annoying and tiring, but yes, it's nice," he concluded.

Red laughed and nodded. "Well class is starting!" She waved and turned around still thinking.

He chuckled and leaned back in his seat, sliding a notebook out of his bag and placing it on his desk. He mindlessly took notes but didn't really focus on the teachers words - an decision he knew that he would later regret.

Red sighed and began to draw. She drew almost all the time. Symbols of the earth basically... She smiled and sighed. Why did science have to be so boring...

Norman knew that the time he was wasting now he would have to make up double as he desperately tried to understand his notes at home. There was no way he could let his grade point average drop, and he would teach himself the subject somehow. A quick glance around the class showed that not too many people were really paying attention, a fact that was anything but surprising.

Red began to hum. This only managed to get her in trouble. The teacher calling our he name n

Norman repressed a chuckle and he shook his head to himself. If amused him how unsurprised he was that she would start humming.

Reds head shot up and she smiled. "Yes sir?" She smiled. He walked over and she quickly closed her book blushing.
"You have something better to do?" He asked with a small glare. Red thought for a moment.
"Yes sir." She nodded. She didn't get that it was bad. She was being honest.
"Oh is that right?"
"Yes sir."
"Fine. Then you get detention... After school!" He handed her a yellow paper. Red looked upon the card. She sighed.
"Sir I don't think this is mine!" She called out and she received a glare and she blushed ducking her head. She needed to train! Not spend more time at school!!

((You there?))

((Yeah, sorry.))

Norman couldn't help but laugh after all of this, and he shook his head. "You can't do that, Red," he murmured, trying to hold in another laugh.

Red blushed. "I don't understand..." She muttered and ducked her head blushing. What did she do wrong.

"Boy do you want detention too?! This isn't a laughing matter!" The teacher huffed.

Norman shook his head, the expression on his face suddenly becoming serious. "No sir," he replied. However, the edges of his lips were still twitching slightly as he tried to keep a smirk from playing across them.

"I see that! Fine you both have detention!" The teacher huffed and muttered several things.

Red turned and smirked at him before sticking out her tongue. "Sucker.." She whispered and giggled lightly. Then turned back around. Maybe she could train in detention.

He couldn't help but groan and he shook his head, but there was a full grin on his lips. At this point there was no sense in hiding it anymore. "I hope you're happy," he whispered, holding back another laugh.

She turned around and rolled her eyes. "Ha.." She huffed and then tapped her foot this sucked!!! She had to save Cam!

He rolled his eyes as well, leaning back in his seat. While he had no real problem going to detention himself, he knew that his mom would freak out once he got home. On the bright side, at least he'd be able to get all of his homework done.

Red huffed and stood as soon as the bell rang grabbing her bag and sketch book. This was irritating.

"You don't tell a teacher you have something better to do," Norman said with a grin as he tossed his notebook into his bag and stood up.

She huffed and sighed. "We aren't suppose to lie? Why do they confuse is like that?" She murmured. Her face red with anger

Norman shrugged, unable to keep an amused expression off of his face. "You just go with it, Red. That's the easiest way not to get in trouble. Do what you're supposed to and go along with the crap they say, even if you don't mean it."

((I won't be able to post as frequently this week because I'll be out camping.))

Red sigh and hung her head. "Norman..." She whispered and looked up at him

His forehead creased and his eyebrows furrowed as he looked down at her, longing to understand what was wrong. "What is it?" Norman asked softly.

Red managed a small smile. "Thanks for laughing... Now I don't have to go there alone..." She smiled. Detention... That word... That's the place she was placed in when she hit a guard... So white... So empty... Almost made her go crazy
