She knew something was going on on the school, and I do as well, there was something that had to do with the one above the comittee, but with the director still silent, and Vanessa acted like she didn't know anything there was nothing to worry about, at least for now, but the fact that something was happening behind scene was real, and that kind of behavior only make my thoughts about it stronger.
I walked about twenty minutes before hearing something on the main garden. The garden was a square shaped piece of grass that was as big as four classrooms together, and also it had a fountain on the middle, it was full of sits for the students and was the most beautiful place on the school if you ask me. But as all the places that wasn't the bedrooms were "closed" as the manual said, for both the safety of the students and to keep order.
I thought of calling Vanessa, but maybe it was my mind playing me a joke, so I waited. When I arrived a bird flew from a tree near the fountain, but that didn't explained the sound, because what I heard were footsteps, not a bird waving it's wings, it was something else.
Even if the things were like that, I did as if nothing happened, after all I would meet with Vanessa in forty minutes or so, there was nothing to be worried about to, but just to make it clear I used my magic to search for anyone that could be there, and as expected there was no one to search for, or that's how the things were supposed to be.

After the hour I walked to the same place where I left Vanessa before, she was already there, and she seemed concerned about something. "I'm glad you are ok, something happened when we left, didn't you hear something?"
"I did, some footsteps near the main garden, but there was nothing after I searched, I think a bird did the sound." She looked at me more worried than before, like if I said something wrong. "What is it?" I asked, "I didn't think you weren't aware of it, but around the school is a shield-like-repelent that scares the beast and animals, is for making more secure the school keeping the beast outside the school and that also helps making a hunt area around the schools because the monsters are easier to find out."
"So, there should be no bird here, right?" She nodded, if what she was telling me was true, the problem wasn't how a bird passed the school barrier, but who let that bird in, because the most prestigious school was not as weak to have a barrier that didn't work, someone had to do it, and maybe the footsteps I heard before was from the person thad made it.
"You said something happened before, could you tell me what were you talking about?" She seemed to have forgotten what she was about to tell me, but she answered. "A student was walking in the north hallway, but he was using magic." That was something to worry about, "did someone get hurt?" She denied with her head, but she was lying, her white clothes betrayed her.
I took her arm and saw her sleeve, "what's this?" I said while showing a blood stain that was painted in the back of her arm. "You told me no one got hurt, why did you lie?" She didn't answered, the blood was clearly hers. "Did someone else get hurted?" She looked at my eyes before answering. "No, no one, only me. I already informed the director about it, this is something bad, not just for the student, the school or the director, but for you."
"What are you talking about?" I asked, "The one who did it, was Johan" So it was him again huh? "You know why?" She didn't answered, I stared at her until she talked. "He was searching for you, but luckily I was patroling there."
I sit on the floor at her side, she did the same as well, "he was searching a second round, huh?" She laguhed at it, but I didn't mind it, if Johan was awake after just one day of rest and was well enough to even hurt the president from the comittee was not thanks to his own abilities, it was something more, it was not a coincidence. And that was something to be worried about.
"Vanessa, go and take some rest, I'll end the patroling for you and take care for everything, let the others know that they won't have to patrol today, and inform them about Johan, and make sure no one that isn't part of the comittee knows what happened here." She just saw me with a skeptical look, as if some strange person were in front of her. "But you can't take care of..." I interrupted her, "please." She nodded and left, she make a sign with her hand befor leaving.
I patrolled the rest of the night, nothing else happened, at least nothing that I could see.
