Taylor made his way to the main gym trying to shake off the odd thing that had just happened, A few other students where already in the gym standing around and talking. Soon however the teacher Mr. Garcia came in. He was wearing a hoodie, sweatpants, tennis shoes and a whistle around his neck and his long hair up in a ponytail. Over all looking very sporty as you would expect of a PE teacher. He had a clipboard in hand he stood off the the side though as he waited for the rest of the students to come in from the locker rooms.

The bully would be in the gym as well and he's glaring at Taylor as he seems to be plotting away to make him pay for what he said to him in the other class but soon Amanda comes into the gym as well and when he sees Taylor she nervously walks over to him "H...hi...T...Taylor..." she murmured softly and this makes the bully go "tch" as he grins lightly humiliating them both is going to be easy he thought to himself.
However Amanda notices the bully glaring at both her and Taylor so she kinda just softly grabs on to Taylor's arm before she looks at the PE teacher and gulps slightly "w...what is..he going to..have..u..us do..?" she asked Taylor very softly before glancing around the gym to try and get some idea of what the gym teacher is planning to do but then her mind goes back to what happened in the locker room
"O..oh...um...b..by chance..did the lights flicker and...the..t..temperature..happen to d..drop...in the boy's locker room a..as well?" she asked, seeming to hope it wasn't just her and she seems to shiver lightly as if that kinda spooked her a little bit but then she turns her attention to look at the Gym teacher, seeming to wait for him to tell the class what he has planned for them.
As for the bully he just closes his eyes and leans against the wall after folding his arm over his chest and grins lightly as he seems to have a idea

Taylor saw Amanda walk in and nodded in greeting as she came over to him. When she asked what the teacher was gonna have them do all Taylor could do was shrug. " No idea." He replied with a sigh. PE was not his most favorite class.. But it was not the worst ether.
"O..oh...um...b..by chance..did the lights flicker and...the..t..temperature..happen to d..drop...in the boy's locker room a..as well?"
Taylor looked at her and blinked a few times, what? that happened in the girl's locker room to?? Taylor slowly nodded, "Y-yeah.. That did happen.. It was really weird.." he replied but left out the part he heard a odd whisper at the time to.
Soon all the students had made their way into the gym. Levi then stepped forward with a smile.
" Ok class, its time to get started. We will start by doing some warm ups and stretches. Then we will head outside to run some laps around the track." Levi said to his students.
Of course there where a few groans but everyone started doing their warm ups and stretches.

When Taylor said he had no idea Amanda only sighed lightly, however when he said
"Y-yeah.. That did happen.. It was really weird.."
She would seem to freeze a little bit but soon nods "y..yeah..I agree it..w...was weird..i..it didn't feel normal" she muttered lightly and she seemed like she was going to say something else when she hears the teacher speak up
" Ok class, its time to get started. We will start by doing some warm ups and stretches. Then we will head outside to run some laps around the track."
The girl listened to everyone groan but she was the only one who didn't groan as she's actually started doing her stretches as she was told. She even nearly does the splits to stretch her legs while at the same time reaching for her toes as she counts to ten in her head before switching to the other leg then counting again before proceeding to stretch her arms then back though she winces when she accidentally makes her back pop
"ow..that hurt.." she muttered with a hint of pain in her voice but it wasn't enough to bother her too much as she proceeded to stretch her legs again though she does glance at the bully who is grumbling and complaining about stretching but he's not complaining too loudly but she notices he is grinning about something, could he be planning to do something at the track? that would be a good place to attempt a stealthy assault so she whispers to Taylor
"I...I..think..that guy..i..is..planning t..to do something..a..at the track.." she muttered with great concern and she even has a tinge of fear in her voice. She hates having this much negative attention..it's always a lot of trouble for her..but she doesn't want Taylor to get hurt either though at the same time she's extremely hesitant to use her powers since no many people know about it..all she could think was what should I do in her head

Taylor sighed as he started to do warm ups and stretches, this would take about 5 to 10 minutes before Levi blew into his whistle. " Alright, that good enough. Lets head on outside." Levi said with a smile he waited till the students exited gym and followed behind them.
Taylor made sure to stay in the back of the group closest to Mr. Garcia, it did not take long for them to reach the track and as everyone stepped on to it they started to take off and jog around the track. Mean while Levi walked over the track and stood in the football field in the middle as he watched his students as they ran.

When Taylor sighed like that Amanda suddenly goes quiet and continues with her stretches until she heard the whistle blow thus causing her to quickly stand up straight to look at her teacher " Alright, that good enough. Lets head on outside."She'd then nod and follows Taylor in line though she noticed the bully a little too late as they walked by each other and she felt her ankle hit something..or other something hit her ankle and since she was not prepared for that so poor Amanda ends up falling face first towards the hard floor but very quickly to avoid hitting her face she turns her body and just barely lands on her shoulder with a loud THUD and at the same time "Oof" is heard. The Bully just glanced at her and smirks while stepping in line as everyone looks at Amanda who only just squeaked from such a fall "Ow...that hurt.. she grimaced lightly as she slowly started to get back up while holding her shoulder as it throbs in pain and so does her ankle since it hit something in mid step and some people are asking what happened while others are just staring at her as she quietly gets in line behind Taylor though she knows that fall would definitely get the gym teacher's attention.
That is the kind of attention she doesn't want but she knows the bully did this to her because he's secretly snickering as if he had just did a accomplishment.

Taylor took notice that Amanda had gone down and was quick to be at her side. "H-hey are you ok?" Taylor asked in a worried tone as he watched Amanda stand up. Taylor then looked at the bully who was looking proud of himself. He could never understand people who liked to mess with people like this. But he was powerless was to do anything about it.
But Levi had all the power. He had seen everything. " Did he just seriously do that right in front of me?? Woow..." Levi thought to himself as he then quietly Levi snuck up on the mean hearted student, he put his whistle in his mouth and blew it in the young teen's ear. " That's not very nice... I guess its time for you and school principal to get better acquainted... Amanda.. I want you to go see the nurse, Taylor you go with her please." Levi said as he then grabbed the bully by the ear and dragged him out of the gym.
Taylor blinked when Mr. Garcia gave him a order, "Uhh ok.." Taylor replied and started to lead Amanda to the nurse's office.

Amanda was still in a bit of a daze after getting up so she didn't quite notice that the hit to her ankle sprained it but when what brought her back to her senses a little bit was Taylor's voice.
"H-hey are you ok?"
She'd then look at him with barely a glitter in her eyes and gives a small nod "y..yeah..I think so.." she muttered while still holding the shoulder she fell on but when she placed weight on the ankle that got hit she felt pain shoot through it thus causing her to completely come back to her senses as she lifts up her foot without even letting a squeak or scream escape her lips.
"o..ow..my ankle..." she muttered lightly and the bully silently chuckles "that will teach them to.." before he could finish what he was whispering to himself a ear splitting whistle was blown in his ear thus causing him to recoil as he covers his ears "OOWW MY EARS!! ARE YOU INSANE?!" he bellowed in agony but that wasn't the last of it.
" That's not very nice... I guess its time for you and school principal to get better acquainted... Amanda.. I want you to go see the nurse, Taylor you go with her please."
Oh no, here came the insult to injury the bully felt a sharp pain as his ear suddenly gets grabbed and dragged out of the gym thus making him scream "GGAAHH!! OW, OW, OW!!! NOT THE EAR! NOT THE EAR!!" as he gets dragged out and all that can be heard is his childish screams that only get quieter and quieter as him and Levi get further away from the Gym. All Amanda could do was hop on one foot now as she leaned against Taylor as she heard him answer.
"Uhh ok.."
She could just grimace at this whole embarrassing predicament as a tear started to well up in her right eye but it's hard to tell if it's because she's in pain or if it's only because she feels helpless despite the fact she has powers "t..thanks...s..sorry for..being..s..such a burden..." she muttered lightly as she down casts her eyes and bites her lower lip while trying to fight back her tears as she allows him to lead her to the nurse's office and being careful as to not put weight on her injured ankle.

Taylor helped Amanda stay steady as best as he could as he helped her to the nurses office, he gave her a side glance when she spoke about being a burden and apologizing for it. Taylor gave a weak smile and shook his head. "N-nah its fine, its not your fault anyway.. Its that jerk's for tripping you." Taylor said out loud. "If only he had gone for me.." Taylor would think to himself. It did not take long for Taylor and Amanda to reach the nurses office. Taylor then helped Amanda onto one of the beds as the nurse came over. " Oh no what happened?" She asked as she came over. " She got tripped and hurt her ankle." Taylor explained. The nurse nodded as she then opened up a fridge taking out a ice pack handing it to Amanda. " Here place this on your ankle while I look for some wraps." She said as she then left to look for the wraps.

"N-nah its fine, its not your fault anyway.. Its that jerk's for tripping you."
The girl would glance at Taylor as if she wasn't expecting him to be so nice to her as she very carefully placed weight on her ankle every few seconds which made walking difficult for her but at least she's somewhat steady thanks to his help "T...thanks Taylor.." she muttered softly, clearly she's not much of a talker but for some reason she's trying to be more talkative with him but she couldn't think of anything else to say before she found herself in the nurse's office.
She kinda lets a small grunt escape her lips when she's helped onto the bed and sighs lightly "my foster mom is going to flip when she finds out I got hurt..." she muttered lightly and just the thought of it makes her cheeks turn red from the embarrassment though her attention gets snatched by the Nurse's voice when she came into the room.
" Oh no what happened?"
She wasn't sure how to answer that but thankfully Taylor spoke up before she could even open her mouth so she just gently accepted the ice pack from the nurse and winced a little when she pressed it against her ankle "o-ow...ow.." she stuttered lightly with a small squeak that escaped her though she looks at Taylor and a small smile seems to pull at the edges of her lips "u..um..T..Taylor..um...is it..o..okay if...um...you and I...c...can..be ..f..friends?"
Wait what? did she just ask that? Yeah she literally has zero friends due to her lack of social skills so to even ask someone that question is a big step, even for her! though realizing asking someone she just met today that question is maybe too soon? she sorta just recoils herself as if expecting him to say no as she glances at the Nurse for a moment only because she has no where else to direct her eyes at this point.

Taylor blinked and looked at Amanda when she suddenly asked if they could be friends. Well that was sudden but.. He could understand it.. She was new here and was already being bullied and he stepped up for her. Hmm perhaps he could introduce her to his other friends too.. Taylor gave a small smile and nodded, " Yeah sure." He said.
Soon the nurse came back with the wraps, " Ok, I am going to wrap this around your ankle." She said as she knelt down in front of Amanda and gently started to wrap up the young girl's ankle.
Soon after Levi walked into the room with a look of concern. " Is her ankle ok? How are you doing Amanda?" he asked.
The nurse did not look away from what she was doing. " Her ankle is sprained.. She wont be able to do anything on it for about a week. Amanda, I'm going to have to call your guardian ok?" The nurse said as she finished and walked back to her office to call Amanda's guardian.
Levi frowned and rubbed the back of his head. Damn... First day for Amanda and this happens.. In HIS class no less. " Amanda... I'm sorry that happened to you in my class.. I will make sure that the boy who did that is punished. That is no way for anyone to act or treat others." Levi said with sigh as he put his hands in his pockets.

Well, as expected it took Taylor a bit to answer her question and it felt like a hundred years to her and she was already bracing for a big NO to punch her in the gut but something else happened instead. " Yeah sure."She'd then turn her head to look at Taylor with a surprised expression on her face but that expression would soon turn into a nervous half smile but her eyes would seem to be glittering with joy "r..really?! she responded with joy as she she heard the nurse return with the wraps though she can't seem to stop smiling despite her current pain. " Ok, I am going to wrap this around your ankle."
Amanda would then finally look at the Nurse and to help her she carefully raises her ankle and does her best to hold it straight for the nurse O..okay.. she muttered in response to the nice nurse though to her surprise her PE teacher soon enters? and once again she feels a bit nervous since that commotion happened in his class.
" Is her ankle ok? How are you doing Amanda?"
She was just about to open her mouth to answer when the Nurse spoke up for her.
" Her ankle is sprained.. She wont be able to do anything on it for about a week. Amanda, I'm going to have to call your guardian ok?"
She grimaces when the nurse said that about her ankle..aww man she was really looking forward to running on the track too so she kinda just lowers her head in disappointment
"Amanda, I'm going to have to call your guardian ok?"
Well that makes her raise her head when the nurse said that! ha?! n..uh.." she started but stopped herself..she really, REALLY didn't want her foster mom to know about this..only because she didn't want her to worry so much but she knows better to basically tell a Nurses to not do their job so she just lowers her head in defeat "o...okay... sheesh she sounds like she lost a argument with herself or something.
" Amanda... I'm sorry that happened to you in my class.. I will make sure that the boy who did that is punished. That is no way for anyone to act or treat others."
That makes Amanda's head perk up and she looks at Levi and shakes her head a little bit "I...I appreciate it..b..but..please don't..blame yourself..it's not your fault I got hurt...it was out of your control..." she said that softly but tried her best not to make it sound like a mumble...darn her and her low self esteem
"at least..it didn't break..right?" she asked with a small smile, trying to lighten the mood with some positivity..even if it wasn't much but at least she's trying! not bad for a shy girl!!

"I...I appreciate it..b..but..please don't..blame yourself..it's not your fault I got hurt...it was out of your control..." "at least..it didn't break..right?"
Levi gave a weak smile as he placed a hand on his hip, " Still, your safety is my responsibility." He replied as he then walked up to Amanda kneeling down on one knee so to be eye level with her. " Listen Amanda, if you are bullied again I want you to come tell me alright? That goes for you to Taylor. We teachers can't help if we don't know what's going on." Levi said with genuine concern.
Taylor stiffened and looked away, making Levi frown. He has felt that Taylor has been bullied but the young teen was stubborn and seemed to refuse to ask for help. For what reason he guessed he would never know.

" Still, your safety is my responsibility."
hhaaaa....she knew that line was going to be said...she just knew, that's always been the basic thing to say to a student if they are being bullied but she understands that he really meant it, they all do, that's the bench mark of being a good teacher so all she could do is give a nod as answer but she wasn't expecting him to kneel down on one knee and make eye contact with her.
Yeesh that always makes it feel like people are looking into her soul!! always makes her want to close her eyes be like nope nothing there to see in my soul! move along now! but she doesn't do that though because she knows that isn't the case..it's just her shy nature screaming at her at this point and wanting to be respectful she forces herself to make eye contact with him as well.
" Listen Amanda, if you are bullied again I want you to come tell me alright? That goes for you to Taylor. We teachers can't help if we don't know what's going on."
She would notice Taylor's reaction to that request and she couldn't help but wonder..why? but unlike Taylor Amanda looks at Levi and gives a gentle nod "..I..I'll make sure to let you know.." she muttered softly though her eyes seem to shift to the side a little bit on their own but she quickly wills them to look back at his eyes again, now all she can think now is ggaahh!! stop faultering Amanda!! but then another thought comes to mind
"..w..what if...the bullies..try to ambush us outside the school grounds..." she muttered lightly and fiddles with her fingers, now wishing she hadn't said that because that would only bring more worry so she speaks up yet again "u..um..never mind...I'm sure..that won't happen.. okay now she just makes herself shut up and she down casts her eyes but that thought still stays in her head..Taylor can fly so he doesn't have to worry but her? well that's a different story but she doesn't say anything about it.
Thankfully though she thought of away to change the subject, rather quickly too.. "u..um...will I be able to still t..take part in..um..PE..?" Yeah, PE class has always been her favorite class thus far..she can run and have fun all the while avoiding other people though this time it's different, she's got a friend she can hang out with and that thought makes her look at Taylor and smile softly at him a little bit but then quickly looking back at Levi, waiting for a answer.

"..W..what if...the bullies.. Try to ambush us outside the school grounds..."
When the young teen ssked that Levi looked at her with even greater concern, would that really happen?
Taylor tensed up even more when Amanda asked that. That has happened to him many times.. But he stayed silent as he looked off to the side.
Levi stole a glance at Taylor as he gauged his reaction, he then got a sinking feeling in his gut that something like that really has been happening... Dammit how come the students never said anything? " Well then... Looks like I will start patrolling school grounds when school lets out.. I think I will try to get other teachers to do the same.. This bulling has to stop." Levi would think to himself.
" I will try and make sure that wont happen." Levi said as he looked back at Amanda. He wanted her, no he wanted every student to feel safe at the school.. It took a very long time for that to come back after the attack on the school.. The students don't need to be harassing each other, not with everything that has been going on.
"u..um...will I be able to still t..take part in..um..PE..?"
Levi gave a small sad smile as he stood back up taking a few steps back rubbing the back of his head.
" Sorry, but ya heard the nurse. Can't do anything on that foot for a week." He said.
Soon the nurse came back.
" Amanda, your guardian is coming. She said she is going to take you to a doctor for your ankle." She said.
Levi gave a sad sigh, whelp this was a good way to start the week for sure.
Taylor stood there now unsure what to do, Levi noticed this. " Taylor go ahead and head back.. I'll stay with Amanda." He said.
Taylor gave a small nod as he gave a small wave to Amanda as he left.
