So haven’t you heard? Just a mark, one last shot

[Christopher Anthony Brian]

After what seemed like a lifetime in the hostpial wing Chris was allowed out. Waiting in a white room full of ill people was one of the worst things ever, espeshally when the lead nurse was the aunt of the girl who had put you in the place in the first place.

Balencing on a pair of crutches, Chris made his way out of the place. His left leg was plastered up and Chris's pale body was still covered in black and purple bruises. All of this was the fault of Billie Joe. An old best friend of Christopher Anthony Brian. He was lucky to be alive after Billie's madness. This time Chris had learned his lesson, and was going to quite stalking Billie. He knew he had to realise that they were no longer friends. Afterall Billie was now a nutty murderer. If he didn't quit now Chris was going to end up dead sooner or later.

Behind Chris he noticed a girl - it wasn't the first time he had noticed her. It was if she was watching him. Despite being barly concious Chris even vaugly rememberd this girl from the attack.

There was no more risk taking. Chris had nearly died once, and it wasn't going to happen again. "What do you want?" he asked politley. "If you are one of Billie's little spies please tell her i'm not bothered about her, and i'm just gonna leave her alone from now on".

[Essence Felicity]

Essence wasn't a stalker. Stalking was when you followed people around and Chris hadn't moved, so Essence wasn't stalking him. She had been the one who had saved Chris when his mad friend Billlie Joe had decided to attack. At the time Essence had been running around the forest in one of her strange moods when she had found the boy covered in blood. Essence had sat watching him since. She hadn't really been able to speak to him, as he had either been too ill or sourounded by nurses.

Finally was the time Essence had been waiting for - the day Chris was released from hostpital. She followed him through the bleak hostpial wing coridoor, and was about to make the first move, but Chris did that for her.
"Err no i'm a spy for Alexis Bay's gossi column", chuckled the girl. In her hand was a copy of this months Hogwart's gazette. Chris often featured in this column. It was really hard to belive he had two kids with Billie and one on the way, but it was true. "Only kidding! I save you from your nutty friend Billie." she replied.

"Oh at least I'll be the front page again!" he smirked, painfully making steps through the halls with his crutches. "You really saved me?" he asked. Chris couldn't understand why anyone would want to save him, especially a girl. Chris wasn't a ugly guy (well not in his own mind anyway), but allot of people read what Alexis wrote about Chris, and the people who didn't believe Alexis couldn't stand his attitude.

"But why did you do that?" he asked curiously, still making his way painfully through the Hogwarts halls. "I can understand for anyone else, but not me.!" It all confused Chris. "It's a ploy of Alexis's isn't it?". There was a copy of the Gazette in the girl's hand. Chris needed to read what lies she had wrote about him this month. "Can i see it?" he asked, pointing his finger to-wards the paper.
