Switching glances between them and the area in which Fae was, he felt his anxiety rise.

Forcing his eyes to stare at them so he wouldn't provoke any further reaction.

"You know how to handle this," the second continued.

Nodding his head, he hoped they would leave if he cooperated willingly.

As much as he wanted to yell, and call for help. This aura that covered the walls was a top magic act that had to be at least 3 times his rank because of their enhancement from Sesa and the master.

No matter how well one yelled, he and the magic students knew how hard it was to break such a spell when cast. No sound or sight could be seen from the outside– no interference.

'Sesa what sort of monsters do you create?!' He questioned, his hand up to his throbbing cheek. The blood was beginning to clot and sting a little.

"Let this be a lesson to anyone who dares interfere with our master's plans." The first said, looking over at Mrs. Neider's body and nodding to the second.

The second nodded back in response, almost as if they had spoken telepathically. Adjusting her on his shoulder. He turned around, walking over to the door.

The first in tow. As they walked out, the aura which had covered the walls had gradually pulled out.

Once it was confirmed they couldn't be seen anymore, he rushed towards where Fae was.

"Fae!" He called out in worry. To his horror, he saw her struggling to move her body at the call of her name.

"Don't, please." He called out, quickly scooping her up so he could get to the infirmary and get her treatment.

"You'll be fine!" He whispered to her as he rushed to the best of his ability to get there with extra weight on his arm.

–––––––––––

Slam!

Lank's heart thumped as he had expected the worst when reaching the infirmary's door.

"How rude!" The nurse screeched in irritation at the loud slam caused by the door hitting the wall.

"I'm sorry miss..." His voice trailed as his eyes searched for Gia.

The moment he located her and saw her chest rise and fall slowly in her sleep.

'She's here.' He placed a hand on his chest, relief washing over him.

"Hello?!" The nurse hissed, still holding a grudge at what he had done earlier.

"Sorry miss." He took a bow.

"Finally, some manners!" She scoffed, turning around and heading to her desk.

'Good thing she wasn't here the last time.' He smiled at the memory of him attempting to crush Ayanami with the ripped door.

He wished in his heart that Gia hadn't defected his powers when he had the perfect shot to put an end to her miserable existence.

Dragging his feet, he took slow steps forward and towards her bed.

Pulling a chair before he got to the side of the bed. He set it down in front of her, sitting and staring at her for some seconds like a complete psycho.

"What did she do to you?" He wondered, angry at himself for leaving her with that sly devil. "I made a wrong move, could you forgive me and wake up?"

Taking her hand, he gave it a little squeeze, forcing a smile on his lips.

Gia groaned in her sleep, slightly turning.

Lank's heart took a bit of a leap at her movements before it was replaced with disappointment.

Lowering his head, he wondered when she would be able to get back up.

Ahem!

"Lank." The nurse had a white nose mask on, and a glove on her hand which was glowing at the activation of her powers.

"Oh, right!" Lank sighed, pushing back on the chair and allowing the nurse to proceed with her hourly healing.

He watched as she placed her gloved hands over Gia's forehead.

"Miss, has anyone visited since yesterday?" He asked, concerned about the presence of Ayanami to what she said while below him, vulnerable at the time.

'F*ck!' He cursed, regretting the slip that could have been avoided if he had not been distracted by the command given to him by Mrs. Neider at the time.

"Not anyone that I should be cautious of." She replied vaguely.

"Meaning?" He stressed, confused by that message.

The nurse temporarily deactivated her abilities. Raising her head towards the ceiling and letting out a low growl at the annoying questions which pricked at her insides.

Heal and observe, she had been commanded by Mr. Gaviel, not to heal and be interrogated.

"Miss, your ability is deactivated." Lank pointed out, his hand pointing at her hands which made them look more like regular gloves at that point.

Raising her fingers, she narrowed her eyes at him. "Do you know what these gloves are for?"

Rubbing his chin, he shook his head to her question. It sounded more like she had diverted the conversation away from what they were talking about.

"It's to regulate the amount of energy I emit from these bad bitches."

Lank cringed at her words, that didn't sound right, no matter how many times he tried to justify and replay them in his head.

Her innocent face framed by black bangs, and pale white eyes, plump pink lips had been ruined with those words falling off her mouth so effortlessly.

The nurse noticed he was a bit uncomfortable and had to ask, "are you feeling okay?"

Nodding his head and drawing his lips into a straight line. He scratched his nose to prevent himself from frowning at the memory of what he had just heard.

Letting that excuse slide, she continued. "That's why I chose this line of the field, so I have an excuse to wear these all the time and put my power to good use."

"Good for you!" Lank gave a thumbs up, "could you please activate your abilities and heal her?"

"I thought as much." She narrowed her eyes and shook her head.

She had merely wanted him to stop asking more questions and feel how it was to interfere in something each of them considered important and were time conscious.

Bringing back her hands on Gia's forehead, she reactivated it, "please just shut up while I work."

Her words immediately shut him up as his mouth was already open, ready to ask a question before she stopped him.

"Noted." He replied instead.
