I turned around. There were two men in uniforms, standing there. One had a vizor on recording.

"Miss Laurendeau, is it?" said the one with more stripes on his shoulder.

"Yes," I said. "And who are you?"

"I'm Colonel Teyo Yaldai," he said. "And this is Captain Aegisthus Kaffale, from the Heinous Magical Crimes Unit."

I heard a whistling sound. It was Martinus.

"What are you doing here, Martinus?" the Colonel asked, obviously recognizing him.

"I'm her friend," he said, obviously not willing to lie about our familial relationship to the police, although still quite liberal with the truth.

"Well, I need to ask a few questions to your friend," the Colonel said. "And ask her to hand in her vizor."

I had no intention of giving them the vizor. It still contained my father's photo, which I put on it, when I didn't think somebody else would look through it.

"Do you have a warrant?" I asked.

"No," he said. "But we don't need it. Your vizor is Academy property, and the Academy must collaborate with us on heinous crime investigation. Hand me the vizor, Miss Laurendeau. While we're being nice."

Captain Kaffale approached me. He was way bigger than I was, and they could use magic. I gave him the vizor.

"Please come with us, Miss Laurendeau," the Colonel said.

"I can't go outside the Academy," I told them.

"That's alright, we can use a classroom," the Colonel said.

I shrugged. I wasn't sure I cared anymore. They'd figure it out soon enough. What was the point of resisting?
