Monday: 11/5/07
Who: Nox and James
When: Monday evening
Where: starting at the local hospital, heading back to school
What: Nox has come to collect his charge and handle a crisis
Nox heard about the incident not long after it occurred, though the details were still sketchy. Being a former detective, he knew not to rely on one witness alone. He needed to gather as many facts as possible before coming to a conclusion. Though the fact that just a day earlier, his charge broke the arm of another student, well, it didn't make him quick to believe that this new incident with Fisher was a complete accident.
Before hopping in his car to head over to the hospital, Nox called ahead to check on Fisher's status and confirm that James was in the waiting room behaving. Both men were safe and supervised, so that was a relief. Nox didn't have to worry about speeding to the hospital. He took his time in getting there, because it gave him time to think about how he was going to handle this.
When he arrived, he still hadn't made up his mind. He rubbed his forehead, feeling a vein threatening to pop out from the stress of the situation. Nox walked through the automated doors and spotted James within a second. It wasn't hard to miss someone who looked so distraught. Nox hoped that meant what had occurred really was an accident. "James," he said calmly as he walked up to the young man, "Come on, we're going back to school."
