Blaze:
Once we've gotten outside the tunnel, I run ahead to get some help. It doesn't take me long to get to those Seniors we ran into earlier. They follow me right away as I lead through the hallways back to the wall where Senior Pool is seated with Breeze in his lap. Breeze might be safer, but he's still not out of the woods yet. They immediately bring him to the emergency room or some sort of intensive care thingy. I follow them because firstly, Breeze is my partner, and secondly because I actually did injure myself out there as well. My hands hurt like hell from some sort of blisters. Surely it can't be any worse than Breeze I suppose. He's got his entire body covered as far as I know.

One of the medics that have tended to my hands outside the intensive care unit tells me to take a couple of days off training. The blisters are sore and my hands are really sensitive to change in temperatures...and pretty much everything that requires using my hands. Senior Pool is keeping a close eye on Breeze's state, but comes back occasionally to check in on me, like now. "Have they told you anything?" I ask him. "No, they haven't but they're working really hard on him in there so I'm only taking that as a good sign." He answers as he looks down on my hand. "I hear your hands are going to be just fine with a couple of days of rest." He says as they are being bandaged. "Yeah, lucky me..." I let out.

"Senior Pool...." Both of our attentions are brought to one of the medics. "...the Super-Senior is on his way as we speak." He says. Senior Pool takes a deep breath next to me. I sure would if I was in his position. "That sounds like it's going to be ''fun''..." I let out as I look over at him. "No, not fun, horrifying. I got you injured and Breeze might or might not just have gotten himself killed in that blizzard storm. I was responsible for both of you and now you've both ended up here." He answers. "What's the worst thing that can possibly happen?" I let out a little too careless I find out almost right away. "He could send me out of this academy and someplace else...or I could end up back on the field." He lets out as I look up at him instantly. "He can do that?" "No, he can't, but others can."

Just as he's said that, the door opens and I see the Super-Senior. He's not exactly pleased one can tell. He's heading towards me and Senior Pool and I really feel like shrinking down into nothing. There's just something about his mood that gets me really on edge. "Senior Pool, I heard words of an incident with one of your students." He lets out as he looks down on me because I'm too damn curious. I immediately look down. "J.E. Blaze, you are excused for now. I will call you regarding this matter when the time for it comes...in the mean time go back to your own quarters." He says. Senior Pool just nods me to go as I look up at him. I'm hesitant of course, but then again I don't challenge the Super-Senior. He's one of the few to actually have intimidated me.

I get out of there and walk down the halls I remember that we only moments ago rushed past to get Breeze to the medics. For once I'm actually just going to do what I've been told because my hands hurt like hell and I can't do anything in this place without them. Just the tiniest breeze of cold air will irritate my skin that's being exposed. The hallways are remarkably empty when I finally have a look around. I would almost imagine the Juniors running around by now. Managing to see the time on one of the walls as I pass by, I realize that the sessions aren't even over yet. No wonder the hallways are empty...well, almost I come to learn.

"Well, well, Junior Elemental Blaze...wandering the hallways alone, are we?" Rain asks as he appears right around the corners when I turn left. He's on his own for a change. "Where's the coward of a brother?" He then asks me. On a day like this, this is the exact opposite of what I need right now. "If you even cared about your brother, you'd know already." I let out grumpily as I'm just trying to end the conversation and walk past him, but he holds me back. Normally I would light up a flame in my hand to warn him off, and I almost do, but then I remember that it freaking hurts...still. I turn it off right away as I look at my hands for a while."Easy there, Blaze, don't burn yourself up there." Rain goes on.
