Depressed and Alone

"Ok your back to normal."

October looked at him. That had been rather simple... a bright smile came to her face when she realized that she was breathing easier. "THANK YOU!!!!" she exclaimed, jumping up and hugging him. "Thank you thank you thank you, Jira!!" And with that, she let go of him, jumping a little bit away and twirling around in a circle. It didn't hurt her lungs at all and didn't cause her to cough. Well, there was one thing that had improved in her life. "Really, thanks."

October hadn't noticed his blush, though if she had, she probably wouldn't have thought much of it. In fact, she probably would have apologized for it, since she didn't like putting others in uncomfortable positions. She finally stopped twirling around and looked back to him. "Is there anything I can do to repay you?" she asked, hoping there was something. It seemed unfair for him to do something so kind and then she not return the favor.

October blinked when he shook his head. "Are you sure? There's nothing I can do for you?" The thirteen year old tilted her head to the side, wondering if he was just saying that or not. "It doesn't seem fair for you to do this for me and I not do something for you. There's really nothing I can do?"

October nodded, then decided that she had to look for Tsim. Even if he was insane... she had to find him now that she was better. "Thanks again, Jira. I'll see ya around. And if you ever need anything, the offer's still there. Bye!!" And with that, the thirteen-year-old started running off toward the mountain range to find him.

Headmistress Moor, however, was walking toward the forest. She had gotten word of someone dangerous and she needed to deal with it immediately. A sword was at her side and she was pretty much ready for anything. Her eyes spotted someone running away and someone standing there not too far off in the distance. Maybe that was the kid? Either way, she was about to find out.

"Is your name Jira?" Maria asked the boy, eyes narrowed slightly.

Maria scoffed. "Don't give me that 'what if it is' crap," she said. "It obviously means that's your name. So come on, you're coming to my office. We need to have a little chat, kiddo." And with that, she took a step backward, not about to turn her back on someone so dangerous. She waited, hoping he would be following, though absolutely doubting it would happen.
