Lucy pulled out a chair in the front row, making sure the seats on both sides of her were empty. She didn't want to have to sit through the whole class with someone peering over her shoulder. Letting out a quiet sigh, she glued her eyes to the desk, pretending that the cracks in the polished wood were suddenly extremely interesting. She didn't know what Vlad had planned, but if was a normal day of class without anyone getting tortured, she would welcome the monotone routine of classwork and the droning of a teacher.
Thoughts wandering, she remembered the boy who had pushed himself between Vlad and herself. She knew the labs that Vlad had spoken of, since she had been dealt her punishment for escaping, and would probably be sent there for more. She shook her head, trying not to think about Vlad with sharp tools any longer, instead quickly glancing around the room. Odd, the girl with white hair who had been watching the others exorcise was missing. If she had run off, she was in certain trouble.
