Azael matched Lydia's pace through the corridor, he usually wouldn't move this fast infront of mortals because it was just too suspiscious. There was also the fact that they both moved so silently, it would be as if a shadow had moved infront of them. She didn't seem to mind, but she seemed to tense up every now and then as people pointed at them. The mortals muttering, "That's them, the freaks..." the comments stung a little but didn't really affect Azael. He had been around for hundreds of years, so he'd pretty much heard it all. Although they had only whispered these comemnts to one another, there was no way it would escape neither his nor Lydia's attention and although she tried to seem carefree, he could tell it bothered her. He thought of earlier, when she had looked so vulnerable, no doubt she could have killed the boys easily, yet she looked so....fragile. He had never met a sensitive succubus before, it was a strange sight to be sure.
He also heard about something happening with Nerissa upstairs, supposedly she had disappeared during class with the other new boy. He heard a girl saying "FIRST THERE WAS A HORRIBLE NOISE, THEN THE WINDOW VANISHED, THEN BOTH OF THEM WERE GONE!" Her friends gasped, "That's a lie!" one of them retorted, "The wall exploded, then the girl grew wings and they flew out! I know, i was there!" Azael nearly burst out laughing at the sheer outlandishness of the story, he knew THAT was a lie. Although he worried. With him threatening students and Nerissa being in trouble, these rumors would circulate and maybe the mortals would reach conclusions...
He shook it from his mind as they reached the music room, he wondered if Nerissa was ok. She should be, she can control water after all, so he was sure there's no need to worry. He would probably hear from her soon anyway. The bell rang out somewhere in the background. He turned to thank Lydia, looking shyly into her teal eyes, he smiled his crooked smile at her, "Thank you for showing me where i have to go. I have to head to gym next, I know where that is thankfully!
