The clock ticks... Well, hopefully it still does. It's hard to tell among the dead still relative grandeur of the main lobby on which you finally have time to take a look at from your hideout just outside. You never were someone to appreciate finer details of architecture, and this place certainly didn't foster any such notions with it's drab and 'desolate' aesthetic. Yet the lobby, while still upholding the abhorrent 'piss-yellow' paint tradition, is filled with sparse, ancient, yet still elegant furniture and shelves with countless similar - probably decorative - books. In a way it reminds of the principal's office, albeit with a more down-to-earth feeling.
"Humph!" Tired grunts ring increasingly further away. Reminding you, you are supposed to be somewhere.
Nodding in self assurance, you glance a final time at the lobby, and in particular, the door at the end of it - enormous, reinforced, but unguarded, at least for now. They lead to the forest you were once allowed into, and further, to freedom. Maybe one day...
...But now you have to be a responsible Pet owner. Inconspicuously you leave your hiding spot and dash towards the cordon. You catch-up just as they are about to swerve in the direction leading to the canteen and other classes; to which exactly is a matter for another time. Standing on your toes you reach and scoop Your Cat from the fridge-like thingy, ignoring the muffled grunts of disapproval from the guards.
With - obviously indifferent - Cat Don Fluffles nestled cozily in your arms you break into a careful jog back to the sex. Ed. class right ahead.
Arriving at the entrance, you come face to face with concerned Alex next to the doors. Having let in all other students he states. "Madam Nakamura." Then bows to you respectfully. "I apologize for the haste, but do you have what Mistress Jaqueline required?"
Still a little energized from the jog, you nod, petting Your Cat all the while. "That I do, but do you know what's the deal with the containers carried by the guards?"
Content, Alex gets closer - way into your personal space - and whispers and looks around. "One matter at the time, please."
With that, you take the 'package' from the bag and slip it furtively in his hand. As Alex confirms it's contents you repeat your question more sternly. "And the containers?"
Pocketing his catch, Alex steps back content, and brings his hand to his chin in thought, smiling. "Interesting, aren't they? Miss Jaqueline is investigating them as we speak. From what we have gathered, there are three of those containers, but we remain clueless of their purpose-"
A loud smack of wood hitting wood echoes from inside the classroom, followed by authoritative voice of Miss Brüngger calling the students to sit down.
