Snippet #1860024

For someone who created an entire world, Mana wasn't exactly all-powerful when it came to staying in control of her own legs. Knight takes pawn, Derek thought to himself, valiantly keeping a straight face so the cause of those spontaneous spasms would not be found. He noticed another girl get up and leave the room. How long had she been there? Well, one thing was certain: she definitely had the right idea.

"Peace out from the D-man!" Derek said, getting up from his own seat and leaving the classroom. He made sure to close the door behind him so Natalie couldn't shoot him in the back. And then, just to be on the safe side, he focused on willing the required electrical impulses to give a cramp in her left leg. Hopefully that would reduce her mobility for a while. His only regret back in that room was not taking a picture of those two girls hugging. Such a prime opportunity that was, yet he didn't realise it until he had left! What a shame!

Anyway, back to the higher priorities. Keiko seemed quite eager to instigate a rebellion against Mana, and as such it was probably a very good idea to go look for her.

Which is exactly what Derek Smith did.
