Wallace was still in shock from the ordeal, and a bit out of breath. He wasn't used to physically exerting himself that much, and the weight of everything that had just happened hit him full force. The most important thing though was that Hartley had saved his life. His Hartley. He still held his hand as Hartley moved about, willingly led. It was easier than thinking right now. When Hartley stopped, he leaned against him, closing his eyes. "Sorry," he whispered again. It was all he could think to say. "I should have just taken the test."

Cassie squeezed Wally's hand back to give him a bit of reassurance.
" We'll stick together... somehow we'll snap them back to their senses. You'll see... we'll get your uncle and Diana back to themselves in no time"
Cassie saw Billy heading towards them...Achilles..
" Billy what are you talking about ? What happened to Achilles?"

Billy caught his breath as he approached.
"Miss Harkness... your brother was wiping the floor, or ground, with professor Namor. I mean he was kicking Namor's butt..." Billy took on an expression of worry, and regret. "... Miss Harkness appeared behind him and, turned him into a stone statue or something. I... I'm sorry, Cassie."

Try to find this place? Everyone knows where it is. All the teachers have come in here to eat. They don't need to TRY and find this place. They already know where it is.

Hartley didn't answer, but squeezed Wallace's hand as they slid into the booth next to Lisa. Len Snart punched a fist into his other hand.
"The teachers want to push us around? I say, we push back."
The other boys around the table nodded.
"We're the Rogues. We stick together. And we don't let authorities push us around."
Lisa looked Wallace over.
"Wallace, what happened to you? You look like Hell warmed over."
Hartley put an arm around Wallace's shoulder, because he looked like he was shivering.
"Guys. Doctor Strange is the new headmaster. AND he's some sort of demon. He almost stuck a knife in Wallace's heart."

"Yes Chris, and that's why our pooled magic is going to hopefully send them somewhere else when they try to come here. We can't hold them off forever obviously, but we need to buy some time."
Jennifer rolled her eyes as she brushed past Chris.
"And that is what I get for trying to explain sorcery to a mortal."
That attitude doesn't stop the sultry Kale from slapping Chris across the backside of course en route to retrieve Billy.

" S..sh...she...she what..?"
Cassie was shaking as tears streamed down her cheek. Sure she didn't grow up with Achilles, but he was still her brother, her blood, and the only one of her brothers that she was very close to. Cassie loved him dearly and now... now... he was gone. In many waves all sorts of emotions came over Cassie sadness, anger, fear, rage, emptyness, and despair. Being an amazon she was always taught to think before she jumped into battle.. the teachers were stronger and far more experianced then she was but still she held her hands into two fists.
" She won't get away with it.... I...I don't know how... but... I will get my brother back"

Hands off, Witchypoo, I have a girl. I think you're wasting your time. Time better spent buffing the powers that be among the students. Like Donnie, Clark, and Cassie. Buff the bruisers and let everyone else escape. When we have a new UNKNOWN location, then you can hide us.
Lord save me from magic users who think they know tactics and strategy.

Wallace was certainly shaking still, and it was taking all of his concentration to not burst into a flood of little baby tears and wibbles. He slid up closer to Hartley, his arm wrapping around his stomach as he buried his face in his shoulder, just seeking comfort right one. His hand slid under his shirt, so he could feel the warmth of skin. "I'm scared," he said, softly, so that only Hartley could hear.

Chris looked at the boy who seemed to be having an argument with the spell casters. "If you need some muscle I think I may be able to lend a hand."

Jennifer nodded at Chris.
"You actually make a fair point. Tell you what, point out to me who you think are the heaviest hitters and I'll see what I can do to get the others to extend their strength so to speak. Perhaps we can even the odds a bit with the nut jobs we call our teachers."
Jennifer left him for the moment to approach Billy.

Evan snickered at Hartley and Wallace, but Lisa kicked him in the shin. Len growled.
"These idiots here don't know their heads from their asses. We need to get out of here. I say we regroup at my apartment."
Hartley shook his head.
"I think we should get off the campus. You guys didn't see the Headmaster's office. It was like some sort of demon dimension. Glowing pentagram on the ground, I swear."
James Jesse rubbed his head.
"So, maybe this is something a little bit more than an exploding rubber chicken can handle, huh?"
Len nodded.
"Maybe so. But this is OUR school. OUR territory. I don't care what dimension or hell Doctor Strange is from...This is Rogue territory."
Everyone at the table nodded, resolutely. They stood up. and started heading toward the back.
"Come on Wallace, you have to stand. Just a little bit longer." Hartley eased Wallace up, putting Wallace's weight on him. Lisa helped him up. "We'll get you to the Snart's and out of danger."

*Chris nodded and pulled the new boy who talked him aside.*
You got muscle? Good. Follow me and I'll start rounding up the heavies.
*Chris moved through the crowd and collected Donnie, Clark, Karen, Mary and Billy Batson, and Piotr. He found Cassie and Wally.*
Hey! Glad see you're okay, sweetie.
*He gives Cassie a hug.*
I'm gathering the heavy hitters to provide a distraction for everyone else. Are you in? Could use Achilles too. Where is he?

Wally West
"Achilles is...he's in trouble. He's in trouble, Chris! We gotta save him!"
Wally let go of Cassie finally and started shaking Chris by the lapels.
"What do we do?!"
