Annabelle opened her mouth to respond to Valechka, but then something strange happened. It seemed to happen quick, so before she knew it she was about to be attacked by a bird when the paralysis hit. She couldn't move or speak, which caused fear to seep in. 

[i]Wait what's happening. Why am I frozen...?[/i] But before Annabelle's thoughts got too crazy, Jasper appeared in her mind. He introduced himself and then she was coughing up the smoke that had entered her. Another man, Varus appeared and ordered the students to follow him. 

Annabelle was pushed around by the crowd. She got separated from Valechka and forced into another student. This caused her to knock down and land on top of a Mikhail. She looked down at the boy. He appeared to be around her age, not someone extremely younger like many of the other students. He had black hair and appeared to be Japanese of sorts. 

[color=pink][i]"Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry!"[/i][/color] Annabelle quickly rolled off him and awkwardly tried to stand up. She smoothed out her dress and extended her hand to offer to help Mikhail up. [color=pink][i]"I'm Annabelle."[/i][/color] She smiled, hoping he wouldn't be too angry at her.
