the hunter x Hex: #3592a0 x Outfit
Reagan rubbed the back of her head and slowly rolled onto her stomach so that she could drag herself back up onto her feet. When she stood, there was a sort of stumble not too uncommon for people recovering from some sort of bodily trauma. Riley was talking, but her ears rung and she only got bits and pieces. It even took her a few seconds to notice that she was in the school, and that there was a rabid beast running amok. Speaking of the Chimera...
Amanda vanished, and this left just the hunter and the Werecoyote. There was a lot of confusion, and Reagan just stared at her. It wasn't a look of horror as much as it was... surprise. An unwanted surprise. Perhaps it was even shock - the sudden realization that the monsters she was taught to kill are so impossibly close to her. They weren't evil, they were kids. Kids like her, and there was nothing in this world that could have prepared her to face this hard truth. In her world of monsters and hunters, there were the good guys and then the bad. That was how her mother taught her, and it was all she knew.
Her eyes blinked slowly, and her breathing began to calm itself down. The question was what in the hell was she supposed to do with this information? Who was Brook talking to, and how much did he know about the students of Beaumont High? There was a wave of anger creeping in from the toes of her feet that crawled up to her head, and she just shook it at Riley.
She held out a hand and calmly took back her taser, "We can't talk about this right now, Riley. I - I need to find Brook. I need to... I just -" She didn't realize that she was stepping backward, trying to get away from this confusion. This grey area was unfamiliar to her, and it seemed like everything she was taught to think about these animals crashed around her. "I need to find Brook. Peter... Did Peter leave school? Thomas? Make sure Peter and the others left, okay? Just... I can't explain it, but if there are any more students like you - they have to leave. My mother, the Sherrif - they will be here soon. You all have to leave." She just didn't know.
Eventually, she was out the door and she turned swiftly to run through the hallway. By this time, whoever Brook was speaking to was likely to be gone, and it was probably a good thing. As she slowly meandered through the various school corridors, she kept her steps slow and cautious and her eyes peeled. The crimson flashing was a grim touch to the whole situation, only adding to the horror story appeal that the students were now in.
She had her small taser in a white-knuckled grip, prepared to use it at any moment. "Brook?" she inquired as she dipped her head into this room and that room, finding each one more eerily vacant than the last. The hairs at the back of her neck bristled as though her gut tried to ward her away from certain places. Just because one was a hunter did not mean they were absent of fear, only that there was this new obligation to protect others. She had to push through it. Her mother reminded her always of their oath, as zealous as it was.
Then there was the science room, in which Brook and Olivia occupied. Was there something wrong with Liv, too? Reagan's bare feet begrudgingly found some glass on the floor - a small shard or two cutting through the skin. Wide-eyes were cast down to them then to the shattered windows where the nightly breeze was beginning to blow from outside in. "Brook... Liv? What the fuck? We need to get out of here. I saw the thing - and it was - it was..." she couldn't quite get that one out, either, and she's supposed to be the stupid brave one.
She'd love to smack the shit out of Brook right now, but it wasn't the right time. She decided that she'd simply wait for them both to realize that she was here, and maybe they'd leave the school together. She wasn't too worried about Riley since most supernatural beasts could take care of themselves better than humans. Truth be told, she wasn't ready to see her again. Not right now. A group would be better than just one person on their own, and while Reagan only had this silly taser, it seemed to have worked on Amanda. Not that she witnessed it herself, but she had confidence in her purse-friendly weapon. If anything, it was the only thing the three of them would have for defense as far as she was concerned.
Unless there was something else that everyone was hiding.
"I just have this taser, and it looks like Riley used it. Whatever that thing is, we can't wait around for it to circle back. R-R-Riley is still here, and I asked her to make sure others weren't still stuck here. I didn't stick around to make sure that she would..." They needed to leave before they had to do a whole lot of explaining to the police. Worse, before she noticed that others she knew were not exactly human, either.
