Everest

It wasn’t as easy to get back inside the dorm under lockdown, but I managed and sprinted to the top floor, not willing to wait for the elevator. I burst into mine and Amelie’s dorm to find her pacing back and forth in the living room.

“Everest!” She sprinted to me and hugged me tightly before she stepped back, eyes widening in panic. “Oh my god! What happened? Were you attacked again?”

I glanced down at myself, almost sick at the sight of so much of Slade’s blood. All his blood.

I swallowed back my fear, and told myself firmly he was not going to die. “I need your help, right now, but you can’t tell anyone. Please, not even Jared.”

“You’re freaking me out,” she said, taking hold of my hands. “What happened?”

“I need you to come with me to Professor Fredwin’s. There’s a dragon at his house that was attacked, and he’s… he’s dying.”

“Then take him to the infirmary. Everest, what’s really going on?”

I glanced over my shoulder, making sure our door was still closed. “He’s not exactly welcome here, but I need you to trust me. He saved my life, Amelie, and now… now I need to save his.” I pleaded with my eyes, begging her to just listen to me and not think I was crazy like she had about me being attacked by Black Diamonds.

She screwed her lips to the side in thought, but finally gave in. “Alright, but you better give me some answers if I do this.”

“I’ll tell you everything I can. I owe Professor Fredwin an explanation, too.”

“You better. How was he hurt? What are his wounds?” she asked as she rushed up to her room.

I followed and described the injuries the best I could, choking up a few times remembering how serious they were.

I wiped angrily at my eyes and watched anxiously as she got her supplies together in a cloth tote she slung across her body.

“That everything you need?” I asked, wringing my hands.

“We need to stop by the Mystic Arts building, snag a few more things.”

“Can we get in there during lockdown?”

She shrugged. “We’re going to have to, if he’s hurt as bad as you say, I don’t have all the right supplies.”

“Right, then let’s go.”

“Everest? You might want to change really quick,” she said gently. “You’re going to draw a lot of attention covered in blood like that.”

I picked at my now-crusty shirt, and nodded. I rushed to change into a fresh pair of jeans and flannel shirt then joined her in the living room.

We rushed out of the dorm, sneaking out a side door and quietly made our way to the Mystic building.

Getting in was easier than I expected, and Amelie gathered what she needed from the supply closet. On our way out, we turned a corner, rushing to get to Professor Fredwin’s, and ran smack into Jared.

“What are you two doing out of your dorm?” he asked, helping us both back up.

“Uh, we had to take care of something,” I lied.
