Riena sighed as her class started filing in. A teacher - this was new to her. The administration has assigned her life defence. How ironic. Making sure she still had her lesson together she looked at the class as they all came in. "Alright, alright, settle down, take a seat please." She waited till the room went quiet and quietly took a head count. She already knew almost all of their names. "Alright, so, most of you Already know me as just Riena. Some of you know me as Riena Shisaro, but from now on you will refer to me as Mrss. Shisaro. Understood? Good. I look around, and I see all of you carefree and happy. That's good, but that's not why you're in this class. Here will be your grading scale. Participation: 20% Test: 35% Field Runs: 45%
Your homework will be tested in the field runs, so I suggest you practice if you value your grades." She looked out the window sighing. This would be a long semester.

((ARRRRGH, I missed so much-- again!! I'm so sorry, I've been disturbingly busy... But I just read through pretty much all the pages I missed.... eep! I'm sorry!! And Alex... -sniffle- ))
TJ opened her eyes-- but it didn't do much for her vision, since she was sprawled face-down across a bed of freshly-dug dirt. Slowly, she pushed herself up into a kneeling position, every muscle burning as she crawled to the edge of the lake. On her hands and knees, she leaned over the bank and peered at herself in the water's reflective surface. Mingled with the dirt, she was covered head to toe in her own blood, her black hair matted and stained, her clothing torn nearly to shreds. 'Jesus,' she thought, 'What happened?'
Even as she watched in the reflection, something metallic-- a bullet-- began to work its way out of her shoulder, pushing the skin aside and dropping with a soft plunk into the lake, stirring up the water and making TJ's mirror image disappear in the ripples.
TJ turned around suddenly, sharply, to look at the place where she had woken up, and clutched at the knot that churned in her stomach when she realized she had stumbled to a grave-- Alex's grave. "Oh, god," she said, her voice nothing more than a whisper. Her body was pushing countless bullets out of her skin, adding to the countless others that she had shed when she was unconscious. "I should have protected him.... I should have been there to save him...."
