For the second time in the course of two minutes, Lily was trying very hard not to stare, and failing miserably. The fact that this was a new record was quite impressive, given the fact that she hung around with Amber whenever possible. Were she a bit more outgoing, she might have congratulated Seagus for that.

After that, things happened very quickly, with Seagus getting into a fight with two girls Lily recognized, but couldn't remember the names of, and essentially turning the conflict into a curb stomp battle. After which the others dashed off to the headmistress's office, with Amber giving her a pat on the head and a wink, before she left. Not wanting to be alone, or leave Seagus to the questionable mercy of the headmistress, Lily attempted to run after them. Predictably, she fell behind fairly quick, due both to her meager running skills, and the fact that they had a head start.

When Lily finally did catch up, Amber and Maya were peeking into the office, where it would appear both Seagus and one of the girls from earlier stood. Bending over with her hands on her knees, Lily managed to gasp out an apology. "Sorry... I would've been here sooner... but I can't run as fast as you. Did I miss anything important?"
