Detention - Totally Not Breakfast Club

[Haley Crusek]

"I got angry, I...I didn't mean to!" She sobbed.

[Calvin Strong]

Cal didn't offer The Man any answers, but he did shift on his feet so that he was between Haley and the Headmistress.

[Regan Rourke]

"It's fine," Regan lies, "I was just surprised it could even touch me. It didn't even sting."

[Samantha McManus]

The headmistress frowned, looking first to Haley, then to Regan, seemingly focusing more on what wasn't said than what was.

[Haley Crusek]

Haley's shields were weak on their good days, and she was an emotional wreck at the moment, and the scene was playing back in her head vividly, and repeatedly.

[Samantha McManus]

"...you're all dismissed from detention early."

"Haley, you're coming with me to my office."

[Calvin Strong]

Cal's eyes darted between Haley and the Headmistress calculatingly. He started downloading maps of the school, updating with his own observations, and getting ready to follow Haley's lead.

[Haley Crusek]

Haley sobbed even harder, rising, leaving her bag, and walking towards Sam, who was going to wipe her brain and put her in a straight jacket.

[Regan Rourke]

"Oh, come on," Regan says, "She didn't do jack."

[Calvin Strong]

Cal's simulations in his brain only gave him a 22% chance of getting Haley out of there, which wasn't nearly good enough. Unless... He eyed the window, then Haley, then picked up her bag. "Hey, you forgot this," he said, his mind racing, turning his back to the window as he ran the calculations of what he'd have to do to grab he and get through the window with her. She could fly, it'd probably be okay...

[Samantha McManus]

"I just need to have a talk with her."

[Haley Crusek]

Haley whispered Cal mentally, not picking up on his plans.

ill...be fine...just might be in detention alone for a long time or something...

Haley's sobs had subsided somewhat, but the tears still flowed, and she shuddered silently.

[Calvin Strong]

I'll figure out how to bust you out, he thought back, trying to calm down. (This is a school... They aren't going to hurt her... It'll be okay... Hm, hack the cameras in the office? Worth a try...)

[Samantha McManus]

"Am I interrupting something?" She quirked a brow at Cal.

[Calvin Strong]

Cal just shrugged. "Don't know what you're talking about." Oh shit it's a trap... god damn... okay, keep cool...

[Haley Crusek]

Haley seemed pretty out of it, and her vision was blurred with tears, so she just walked out of the room in front of Sam, not really responding or reacting to Cal, still crying.

[Samantha McManus]

"We won't be long," she said, heading for the door.
