Greg found his locker or the locker he was sharing with someone. 'God please don't let them be a freak or freak out at me!' He prayed quietly as he opened the locker up sort out his books for the morning classes and the afternoon.
That went smoothly than expected. He looked around the halls before the first bell went off. He knew a few faces from Silver but the others he was clueless about who they were. He didn't mind just so they didn't start screaming about seeing a tv star near them. He roamed the halls over hearing conversations that would make a sailor blush. He rolled his eyes, if people swore as much now when they were calm how bad did it get when they were angry?
He stopped by a vending machine and went to get a bottle of water. As it dispensed, the bottle got caught. He tried to jiggle the bottle to see if it would come out but to no avail, now was the time for swearing.
"C'mon out of there you son of a..." he cut his words off as a shadow fell over him. He smiled with a small bit of blush coming over his cheeks.

Bree was doing her invisible thing in the hallways or at least doing the best that she could with the halls doubly crowded. She stopped when she heard cursing coming from the vending machines. "Hey... need some help," she said going over to her own surprise. The young man standing there must be from Silver. He was very cute and unfamiliar, but then she didn't watch television. "There's a trick to this... watch cause the timing is crucial. She slammed the front glass with the heel of her hand, hip butted it against the metal and then waited a beat before elbowing the monster. A second later the machine made a grinding noise and the bottle fell to the receptacle.
"Any other beasts you need me to tame, my name is Bree, glad to be of service," she said with a smile. She had on a sheath dress in black and white harlequin diamonds with a black hoodie over it. Her slender legs were encased in fishnets and she had on lace up granny boots with chunky heels. "Can I help you find your way anyplace?"

Ashley walked down the hall coming to a stop when he heard someone curse loudly enough to draw some people's attention around the hall way he looked over to see Greg Meyers struggling with something and a girl doing it for him. Ashley had to beat back a chuckle as he walked over.
"Hey Greg everything okay?" Ashley asked he'd come in from the side so he wasn't entirely sure if the boy had heard or even seen him approach, he had come up behind the girl by mistake rather than design.
Ashley had heard the fun and antics that had happened at the rave, and the morning after which had lead to the arrests of quite a lot of the student body needing their family to get them out of jail, which had made him very pleased to have decided to do something else with his night.
"Sorry if I made you jump." Ashley said to the girl almost as an afterthought but it was a sincere apology at least.
Ashley had had to fight to get out of the house this morning and he didn't look as pristine as he sometimes did, he had the dishevelled appearance of a person who had run out of time to do anything with himself, including his hair which stood out at all angles, along with black bags under his eyes.

Bree jumped at the voice coming from behind her. She whirled around, her eyes wide and her breath was driven from her. "Oh," she whispered as she fought to control her panic. The fact that the other young man was very tall didn't help. She was tall herself, but this guy made her feel small. She breathed deeply and gained control of herself again. "Oh hello," Bree said, managing a smile. "You're both from Silver? I'm Bree... Do you need help finding anything?" She told herself this was no different than hostessing a party for her father. She just needed to be friendly and helpful.
*I can do this!* Bree told herself as she looked at two guys. *Just because this is school instead of our living room and these guys are my age instead of old men shouldn't make any difference.* Bree self-conscious raised a hand to her dark red hair to smooth it down as it always seemed to try to look tornado twisted when she least wanted it to.

Greg watched in awe as the red haired girl seemed to have an affect on the vending machine which ended up churning out his bottle of water.
"Thanks a lot!" He said to her smiling, it also amazed him she wasn't freaking out. That was a blessing in his book. "Its a pleasure Bree, I'm Greg." he introduced himself to her.
"Oh hey Ash, everything is good here. The beast of a machine was calmed by Bree here." There was the temptation to call her Belle after 'Beauty and the Beast' but he declined to do so.
"Is it that evident that we go to Silver?" He laughed. After all Greg had no idea how to get the bottle of water from the machine and yet a girl came along and gave it the old one-two.
"I should be ok on finding classes." After all it hadn't been that long since they were all together under one roof and he had figured out who was responsible for the bodies found at Silver.
He looked over Ash's appearance. "I hate to say this Ash but you look like you went through the blender a couple of times." He ran his thumb through his bangs, which were starting to hang in his eyes.

Ashley winced as he ran his hand through his hair trying to flatten it, "Kai didn't want me to leave this morning, it was one hell of a fight to get out of the house." Ashley said to him. "I had no time to do my hair or anything else for that matter, when I left my mom was still dealing with my screaming son." Ashley said sadly, it was the last thing he had wanted to do.
"What I look like in the morning is dependant on my son, and how much sleep I got the night before, in this case I had to deal with a nightmare Kai had, then followed by the tantrum from hell this morning." Ashley said with a slight shake of the head. "Its been a bad start to the day, I just hope it gets better, I dropped by the pharmacy to get some pro plus before coming here." Ashley said to him.
"I'm Ashley, and we were here what a month ago if that, I hope I haven't forgotten where everything is... that would be very embarrassing." Ashley said to her with a smile. "Its been a while Greg I hope everythings been good for you." Ashley said to the boy.

Bree smiled at Greg and gave him a small curtsy. "Nice to meet both of you, too. I didn't really meet many of the Silver students the last time you all were here. It was all very overwhelming... I think having the sun shine helps," she said knowing she was always more social once the cloud cover left.
"You have a son?! That's great," Bree said looking at Ashley in surprise and a bit of respect. She admired him for not having deserted his responsibilities. She had seen a lot of girls left to deal with being a parent, a student and providing for their small family on their own. "Its great of your mom to help you too. Some of the girls I know that kept their kids have been left totally on their own. Your mother must be a wonderful woman.
Bree was envious for she had never known her mother and she knew her life would have been very different if her mother had survived giving birth to her. "How old is Kai?" She doubted she would ever have a child so she was interested in other people's children.

Ashley grinned, "His my pride and joy, and yeah my parents have been very supportive of me since I brought him home, they screamed and shouted a while before he was born but they would never turn out their own children onto the street..." Ashley said to her which was very true. "His mom moved back to the UK not long after his birth, so she has only ever held him once, and that was just after he was born, her parents gave her the choice between the family money and her son. She chose the money over being disowned." Ashley said a year ago he would have been bitter about it but a lot had changed for him in that time.
"Kai's 2, and his been going through the terrible twos for a while now, but this was generally about me going to school this morning. Typical toddler I think, he didn't get what he wanted so he threw a tantrum." Ashley said amusedly. "Love him to bits but my god does he have a pair of lungs on him, I'm surprised that I don't have a headache at this moment in time." Ashley said to her. "Does anyone know what caused the move this time?" Ashley asked still a little confused about it, he hadn't taken the call and had forgot to ask his father about it.

"Thats understandable then, he didn't want to see dad leave him today. The poor kid, separation anxiety. I say enjoy this now, when he hits thirteen or so he'll be pushing you out the door saying something, 'Dad your embarrassing me!' even though you haven't done anything." Greg laughed a little as he opened his bottle of water and took a drink.
"The rumor mill going around says that rats invaded the school, so who knows how long we'll be here this time." He leaned on the evil machine that didn't want to dispense his beverage after paying for it.
"If you want some help after school, I can see if my sister would lend a hand, she has a way with kids no matter how they're acting. Don't know what it is about her she has a calming affect on little ones."
He had started making the plans behind her back. She'd pay him back somehow, unless she was able to get paid for her services, then she'd be thanking him for finding her a job for the day. He took a pleasure knowing this is what older brothers did to younger sisters only to be praised later on.

Bree couldn’t imagine leaving a child behind and never looking back even if it meant she would have to scrape and suffer for the rest of her life. But everyone was different, she was just glad for Kai’s sake he had a more responsible father. “Well I think Kai is very lucky to have you.” She shrugged about the reason for Silver’s having to return to Gould, but Greg came up with the answer.
“It does seem that Silver is having a run of bad luck. I hope they get it all taken care of. Bree wasn’t particularly frightened of rats, but she didn’t think she would want to be in class and have one show up in her class room either. Not that her father would ever let her go to an infested school. He was terribly fastidious and would probably be afraid she would bring something home with her.
“I don’t really know much about kids, but I would be glad to take him to the park sometime if you and your mom need a break,” Bree offered, as she thought it must be hard to never have any free time. “Other than cheerleading, I don’t really do much after school.”
