((I think you meant Conall; Michael was the one who actually shot her, so he did no saving whatsoever. xd ))
Shirou looked up at the sound of the voice, momentarily alarmed after all the stuff that had been going on, but relaxed when seeing it was a fellow teacher. However he also recognized IMMEDIATELY that it was the same new teacher that was apparently hitting on Adrienne earlier. While he would normally silent-treatment him off, he couldn’t give Kiyoko a bad impression for this new guy; he needed a clean reputation, at least for now. He wouldn’t hurt her anyways, being a teacher and all.
“Goodness, you scared me there! I’m just paranoid, that’s all, it’s not you.” he said quickly, not wanting to offend him as he came closer. He silenced as the teacher addressed to Kiyoko.
Kiyoko looked up from fiddling with the edge of one of the blankets. This looked to be a new teacher, for he had that I’m-so-lost look that most new people seem to have. She nodded silently, but said nothing. She suddenly just felt nervous around people she didn’t know, as if her voice suddenly got lost. She felt stupid for thsi though, like a nervous toddler who hides behind her mother as she is dropped off or darecare, or something around thsoe lines.

(Isn't Conall's last name Michaels?)
"Sorry, didn't mean to." Wu Zun grinned a little bit and looked at the girl. She didn't seem to like him being around. Oh well.
Suddenly, he got an idea. "Hey, Mr. Kiyoshi, could I talk to you privately for a moment?"

((Oh wait. Waaaaaaaaaaaaait. Yeah, you’re right; my bad. Forgot that there was a Michaels and a Michael. xd ))
Shriou sighed; he knew she’d clam up. She was doing so well too, making friends and whatnot. Hopefully, this was nothing more than the stage of paranoia. As he listened to the fellow teacher’s request, he had to make a decision. He couldn’t (and for repeat: COULD NOT) leave Kiyoko here; if something else gets faulty, well, the school is already on a thin line as it is; one false step more could lead to it’s closing.
“Eh, sorry, but I can’t leave the room right now. I’m on guard duty.” he answered simply, trying not to come off as rude. He could see Renji in the bed far down sleeping peacefully, but he knew Kiyoko was already nervous as it was.
Kiyoko felt bad for hurting his feelings, but it wasn’t really his fault. She was losing her mind: lack of sleep and getting shot does that, apparently. She rested back against the pillow, still propped, and stared at the ceiling in silence, clutching her doll underneath the covers.

"Oh, it would just be for a second, in the corner or something. You can still be in the room. I've been meaning to ask you something." Wu Zun pushed his glasses up. "It'll be quick, I promise."

Mr. K. sighed inwardly; there would be no way out of this one.
"Well, alright. Let's see, how about over there?" he asked, pointing to a desk no more than four-six feet away or so. He, in all seriousness, couldn't leave this room for fear of something happening to the already truatized girl. Speaking of which, he rose from his seat and faced the girl, who already knew something was up. "Kiyoko, I'll be RIGHT back, ok?"
Kiyoko looked up at the teacher, knowing full well that hte other wated to speak with him. She suddenly felt nervous, a bad feeling entering the pit of her stomach. She tried to silently shake her head, but could not. She couldn't be rude.
Mr. K. could see that Kiyoko didn’t like this. He made his tone softer as he sat next to her on the bed for a moment. “You’ll be fine, k? We’re not even leaving the room; just at that desk over there. IF you need anything, just give a shout.” he said.
Kiyoko nodded. Wait, what turned her into a scared 5 year old anyways? She’d be fine; not like someone would drop in now anyways. She nodded and picked up the bag next to her bed. Taking out a book she had been reading, she turned to the right chapter and began to get her mind off of things.
Shriou smiled and patted her head; the two teachers walked over to the desk, and Shriou looked at him seriously in the eye. “What’s up?” he asked, keeping a friendly tone.

"This might sound a little out of the blue, it's not really even that important, but it's been buggin' me..." Wu Zun placed his hands in his pockets and slouched, looking very much the part of his job as a model. "But you and Adrienne seem pretty close." He looked off to the side. In order to continue in his pursuit, Wu Zun had to make sure that she wasn't taken. He wasn't that kind of guy.
"You like her?"

Shriou listened closely as Wu Zun talked to him, using casual yet nervous tone. He couldn’t help but wonder why he was so nervous, between glances to Kiyoko (she had gotten out her ipod while reading; respecting them and not eavesdropping on them, how sweet!) and to Wu Zun.
Then he asked him about Adrienne:
“You like her?”
He tried not to show any surprise, but it was no use. He didn’t know what to think, although this same question had been bugging him as well. Shriou kept telling himself not to worry about it, and hence why he hasn’t gotten far in ideas. Therefore, his answer was far too hesistant and stutter filled; Wu Zun had for once actually caught him off gurard completely.
“A-a-ah, u-uh, is there any particular reason you’re asking?” he asked him, trying to make conversation and, mainly, to get some words out of his mouth.
Kiyoko was quite comfortable, wrapped in blankets and lying against the pillow. Since they probably wanted some alone private conversation, she got out her Ipod (it was a miracle nothing in the bag was stolen) and turned it on while reading. Although she did glance up once, and had to blink a couple of times: he looked scared/surprised.

Celia nodded slightly. She pressed down on his knees so that they didn't seperate the two of them. "We'll find out who it is." she whispered, squeezing his hands gently. "But lets not worry about that right now..." she said, "I've had enough drama for one day." Then she leaned forward and kissed his lips gently. As she slowly pulled her lips away from his she said, "How about we go take showers and then go back to the room to get some sleep?"
Ray knocked on the door before stepping in. He saw that everyone was okay and that there was another teacher in there too. He raised an eyebrow, they seemed to be deep in conversation or something because Kiyoko was off in her own little world. He looked over at Mr. K as he headed over to Kiyoko, almost like dismissing him from the room. He didn't really want to be bothered with too many other people in the room.
Ray kissed her cheek gently when he reached her. He pulled over a chair so that he could sit next to her for a little while. "Hey..." he said with a small smile.

Hiding a smirk, Wu Zun looked stoically back at the teacher. "Just wondering. I was thinking of asking her out and I wanted to make sure it was ok with you." He raised an eyebrow. "Is it?"
It didn't really matter what he said, he was going to do so anyway. It was to let Shirou know he now had a bit of competition...

Shriou froze and looked at him; Adrienne, with this guy? He hadn't known the woman for more than 5 minutes and he's already planning to start a date? That can't be good at all; he might be one of those types who care more for the body than the mind. But, that was just a guess, the mere vibe this man was giving off.
BUt, what about Shriou himself? Would he go out with her? It was too hard to tell, but he had to give an answer. He thought as he watched (with relief) as Ray came back into the room, going over to Kiyoko. He could tell by Ray's look that he wanted some time alone, which was understandable, so Shriou's answer was serious.
"I'd actually appreciate it if you wouldn't. It'd be easier to spend more time here first, in case you meet someone else you like. Simple 3-second crushes never last." he answered.
((Gonna make up the book here; meaning it's not a IRL book))
Kiyoko was deep into fantasy-romance novel, The Crimson Moon: The Double Mind, when she felt someone kiss her cheek. Looking up, she placed her bookmark within her book and shut it, taking off the headphones and sitting both ipod and book on the desk next to her, moving the cup of water farther away so it wouldn't spill. Cause, that would rot, very much so.
As she brushed hte hair out of her face, she examined him more closely and giggled; he was wearing some strange pants and a undershirt that was obviously his, and not some matching shirt. "So, I take it you got through alright?" she asked, feeling much more relieved now that he had returned; she wouldn't have to worry about as much now, and the bad feeling disappeared for the time being.
Bam......wabam........wabam...
"Give it up, Micheael; we're screwed."
Lucy sighed irritably as she sat in a chair looking out the window. They had been in here for awhile, with not much more than some bathroom trips and a fast shower for each. They were too wearing stupid clothing, but were not tied up. Of course, they had 4 armed guards outside, so that was why.
Lucy was wearing a different nightgown, which was black with orange stars. Michael, who was ramming the door as an attempt to break through, was wearing green and white vertical stripes on his pj top and bottom.
"I said GIVE IT UP. We're not getting out, alright?"
"You're the LAST one to tell me what to do, Miles! Look where it got us! And you didn't even tell me the TRUTH, so I just hurt some girl who was actually trying to help me in math. Some gf you are."
Michael turned and replied coldy, looking down at her as she sat in the chair, teh silence assuring her that the insult hit her and hard. He then went back to ramming the door. THere had to be a way out.

Star smiled again as Ray came back, then when he went to go see Kiyoko. She turned back to Thayli. "Yeah. It was pretty bad." She said, looking at the ground.
((guess I better not leave mah teacher for so long next time.. sweatdrop ))
Ms Skylar had left the room a long time ago, and had went back to the second floor to watch the students as they moved up there. Well, this is a better idea. Less fights will happen now. And especially since Lucy's away, I can finally relax. She thought to herself, almost allowing a smile to grace her lips. She held it back though.

Ray smiled as she giggled. He was glad to see her in a better mood. He hated seeing her in pain or scared. He rolled his eyes a bit as she asked if he got through alright. "Yeah and you're not one to laugh at what I'm wearing. Look at you..." he said teasingly. "So miss me much while I was gone?" he asked with a grin. He was in a bit better mood that everything that had to be was done and there was not much to worry about anymore. The day was finally winding down, unlike the weather. That just seemed to be getting worse and worse.
Ray looked around. What was he suppost to sleep on tonight? Where they going to pull another cot in here for him?

Kiyoko knew Ray had a point; a darkblue and gold gown with bunnies wasn't really considered a teenaged way to dress for sleeping. And she was the one sitting here with a medium sized doll in her arms.
She saw him look about, and she knew what question was going through his mind. "They're bringing out a small couch for you to sleep on tonight, or a really large chair. Most likely ther first one. That's what a nurse told me, anyway."
"As for your actual question; I lived." she shrugged, as she noticed that she could still hear the rain pouring outside. She hoped her mom and bother were alright. Oh.....her brother.
Her brother was more of the protective one in the family of Kiyoko's relationships until he met the guy himself; this could pose a problem later on if he didn't come back home after the storm and meet Ray face to face. Of course, she never went out with a guy before, so her brother might actually be surprised as opposed to angry. But with recent events, that wasn't likely.
"It's still raining hard out there, isn't it?" she asked Ray, shoving these thuoghts aside. Now was just her time with Ray, and a good day to be alive.
The crowds began to get loud as everyone ran up the stairs at once to claim rooms and places to sleep. The announcements could dully be heard from the nurses's room, but coming from outside the halls. There were a few student shouts, but mainly many footsteps that could easily be mistaken for a stampede of angry animals.

Ray nodded, “Thank you.” He said with a smile. “Geez, you already know what I’m thinking.” He said and kissed her cheek gently. He wasn’t used to other’s reading him besides Celia. Most of the girls he used to hang out where so stupid that he didn’t even know what he was thinking when he actually said it. He found that very attractive, but then again most, if not all, her qualities were attractive. And he still hated himself for letting her get hurt and not taking better care of him. He gently caressed her cheek with his hand.
Ray nodded at her question. “Yeah, it’s still coming down very hard out there. It doesn’t sound like it’s going to stop anytime soon.” He replied to her softly. “I think it was stupid for the school to actually think that it wasn’t going to be okay, but then again… I’ve gotten something well worth it out of it.” He said with a playful grin.

Conall had accepted the kiss and stood, feeling better. It was always good to have someone trusting to talk to. Conall went over and picked up the gun, ejected the clip, removed the bullet in the chamber, put it back in the clip, then put the clip in one pocket and tucked the gun in the back of his waistband. Conall looked over to Celia, ashamed of himself.
-"Uh... could you not tell anyone about this? I mean... attempted suicide would only ruin my reputation even more... and I seriously doubt that Ray would find it any more comforting knowing that suicidal thoughts is one of my habits...."
