So it was just another way to say her name. "Oh." She She thought for a moment. "I think I'll pass on that name. It's still just a number." People were leaving the cafeteria and 533 watched them. "Class time?" Estella headed to gym with everyone else.

"Yep. Class time." She shoveled down a few more forkfuls and drained her water before getting up. "Would you like to walk with me?"

[KatherinWinter]

Katherin head for gym class. She was still feeling out of sorts and lost. It was like she had lost what footing she had. She felt like a ship adrift at sea. She longer knew where she was going. Maybe it was time to expand her own horizons.

Zack headed for the gym. He wondered what weird activity they would have today. He hoped it was something fun. Yesterday was crazy on many different levels. He wasn't sure what they had learned from the simulation but he was sure in time it would become clear.

533 shrugged and stood up. "Might as well. Which class is first?"

Ben sighs heavily, "I skinned him with my own talons, Jack. I didn't have a knife, so I had to use my bare hands! Then, when that started to heal, I cut off the new skin, then started cutting off his muscles one by one. Then, I cut the ligaments connecting his joints. I took him apart like a fucking LEGO tower, little bro. And do you want to know the worst part?"

Anthony ignores Kijani's first statement, and instead answers her question, "You seem familiar with the thought experiment, so I won't bore you with the details. Basically, you can't be certain of the outcome of an action or event unless you attempt it or witness it. You can't know if Connor and your friends will turn on you because of who you are, unless you show them who you really are."

[Avanhelsing]

If this had not been his brother Jack would have lunged for his throat. That and there was that horror again. His promise was weighing heavily now. This was sick. The worst part. Jack had a horrid feeling he knew what it was. "You liked doing it in the moment didn't you? Or you did it again? What is it?" Jack asked still hiding his revulsion.

"Gym, I think? That's usually... interesting." She dumped her tray and led the way. "If you don't mind, I want to help you with this name thing. I chose the first name I tossed out because I figured it'd be a piece of yourself. But I agree- a number isn't a name, no matter how you spin it." She smiled a bit. "I... er... I'm kind of a writer, and I have a bunch of naming books. You should choose your own name!"

Kijani huffed slightly, ready to retort... only to open her mouth and realize she didn't have an argument. "..." She shut her mouth and looked perturbed. Her eyes shifted downward. "...there's something you're not getting, though. Even though.. I prepare for it. Even though I know it'll happen. When people reject me, and fail me... it hurts. You'd think I would be used to it, but every time, it's a fresh wound. I just-" Her voice cracked, and suddenly she was whispering. "I feel like one more good... hit... will break me for good." She didn't know if he heard her, or if he would understand if he did. But she shook her head, and started walking. In the opposite direction of the gym.

Ben shakes his head, his eyes watering slightly. As the tears gather in his eyes, they seem almost like drops of blood due to Ben's red eyes. "No, I didn't like it. I didn't dislike it either, though. But that's not the worst part. As I was peeling the muscles from his body, I couldn't help but compare them to deer meat, and I really wanted to know what they tasted like."

[MarshiestMallow]

Phoebe changed, stepping out the locker room, she then proceeded into the gym, looking about it.

Kalinda saw Zack, and pleased, jogged up to him. "Still wearing jeans to gym? Haven't gone clothes shopping yet, like I promised, have we" She said

"So far it hasn't been a problem. We are not too worried about it. What kind of craziness do you think we will thrown into this time?" Zack asked with a smile. He loved interacting with Kalinda. There was something about her that just relaxed him and made him feel more comfortable.

[Avanhelsing]

Okay now this.. This was bad. Eating people?! Killing them was one thing. It was human nature after all. But eating them. There was something up here. That and Ben looked on the verge of tears. Jack was not going to just stand idle any more. Part of him wondered if Ben was fully in control of himself. Jack hugged his brother quickly. "Ben. We need to get help. " He said letting go. "This isn't you. You are not like this. I know you are changing but eating people? Ben... At least tell me you did not eat the muscle. " Jack said his voice now full of worry.

[MarshiestMallow]

"Who knows?" Kalinda said, "The teacher seems to be happy to keep throwing us in the deep end. Still, can't get much crazier then the dodgeball games, right?"

[knight125]

Ben shakes his head vigorously, "No, Jack, oh God, no. I'm not a monster." He continues with a quieter voice, "Right?"

Anthony watches Kijani walk away, thinking, "Later Luthor. What's the fun in solving all of your puzzles at once?" He enters the gym and sits down.

"You just dated the universe, Kalinda" Zack joked. "No the class is doomed. The school will strive to find something more crazy and intense. Like.....line dancing."

[MarshiestMallow]

"Anthony!" Phoebe said when she saw him, going over to where he sat "I never did thank you properly for my letter. It must have been a risk getting it out of Batman's office, since it was in there, right? So, thanks. I'd say if there was anything I could do for you, to ask, but I'm not sure there would be.Also, on the night I left with my mother, you came across us-her and me. She, uh, kissed you, inducing pheromones so you would forget you had seen us. I thought you should know"

"Daring the universe, how?" Kalinda said, She didn't get that, "Maybe that's true...but we get better each time so it works out. And I like dancing"

Jack shook his head and put his hand on Ben's shoulder. "Look at me. You are Ben Parker. My older brother. You are not a monster. We are a team you and me. The Parker brothers. That means I always have your back. We will fix this Ben. I promise. " Jack said staring into his twin's eyes. There was no way he was letting Ben slide deeper.

"Haven't you ever heard that when someone says it can't get any worse the situation does exactly that." Zack replied with a grin. He doubted they could come up with something more intense then dodgeball, but he wouldn't be surprised if the did. "Dancing must be a girl thing. We have met many guys who enjoy it."

[MarshiestMallow]

"oh, right" Kalinda said, "most guys don't enjoy it. Oh, I'm pretty sure they enjoy watching the girls dance though" She said with a laugh "I like it because its a way of expressing things. Just like music"

[KatherinWinter]

Zack shrugged. He had never thought about it. Music didn't seem to serve a purpose beyond enjoyment. He would have to study it again and see if he could understand what his friend meant. "I can't say we have ever watched a girl dance just to enjoy watching them move. We will try it and let you know."

[MarshiestMallow]

Kalinda had to hold back another laugh, "Okay" She said, "don't go to a club though. People just dance there to try and pick someone up. And you might do or say something wrong and get in a whole lot of trouble. So don't go by yourself at least"

[KatherinWinter]

"You're suggestion is much better then what we had in mind. We were only going to study videos of dancing. But you are probably right. We would get into trouble on our own at a club. Maybe you could go with us. Then you can keep us out of trouble and explain things to us." Zack suggested.
