Lying flat on her bed in her studio apartment, Kelly was staring at the wall. She wasn't in her school uniform even though it was a weekday, and the bed sheets had formed a shape around her due to how long she had been stuck there.
"I can't get it out of my mind, even when I look at the wall," Kelly said. "I've seen people die before, I've seen sights like that, but this was the first time I was so involved in something. I saw everything, and the image of him losing his life right in front of me is constantly there."
"Meow." Sophie opened her mouth and walked past, brushing her tail on Kelly's face, trying to cheer her up, but it was useless and had been for the last four days now.
Due to the events that had occurred, Kelly had called in sick at the academy. She claimed she had come down with a serious case of the flu, something that could get her off for more than one day.
