If...if I lost any of you, I don't know what I would do." Even losing Tate in the simple fact that the man could be removed as Headmaster terrified him. "I just...I want a normal year. I just want a normal, solid, unchanging year. Last year was...too much. I can't...not again."

Okay. Clearly he was in Serious Sabel mode... which there were very few times that he wasn't... "Sabel... there is always some outside force trying to harm us here. I truly believe that. Perhaps... Mr.Ikenna truly wishes to enlighten us. To protect us. To HELP," she said as she placed a hand on either of his arms and gripped him rather firmly.

"You are not going to lose any of us. Not NOW. That isn't to say that somewhere down the road you won't. Loss is, unfortunately, a part of life," she said. Her happiness had slipped awayas she spoke and she looked at him with blazing eyes. "The harsh reality is this, Sabel. Nothing is normal here. Ever. Nothing is simple. There is always... something. You have to deal with it. I know I am a fine one to talk about coping, but that is what I have learnt," she said firmly as she released his arms from her grip.
