Sometimes in life we come across visitors from our pasts. When this happens, our heart strings tug at emotions long forgotten or sunk down so deep inside one's body that it almost feels like the spirit which guides you is being torn from the muscle.

Mid December.

The student union headed by a shark in sheep's clothing, Cady the Cannon as some would call her aimed the march of the removal of Theodora from the humanities program.
Her rants, antics and overall drama stirred up enough outrage over the gazette article; that the student union was on the verge of removing Theodora's place in the class.

Friends gathered.
Manny had agreed to battle Cady on the platform in form of debate in order to save the dignity of Theodora's place in the class.
Juniper was set on flipping the script on Cady with some background digging into her past.

As they all had pasts which could be exploited, it wouldn't be a far cry to assume the cannon did too.

Ben lost in thought as per his norm, let his eyes wander and he sees Dominic across the pool hall. Instantly his mind races back to his youth.

One of the kids that he first met via glare in the shadows of the Armstrong, was Dominic Rayn. Dominic was an outsider.
An outsider with brutal force of living life in the fast lane.

He fought off predatory behaviour during their time in the shadows. The hands of the MOC were needful, and Dominic never fell to the hand.

Ben got up and left the friends making his way to his old friend. A brief talk followed by a hug was all anyone seen.

The evening debate was being held in the Student auditoriums Jacobi was there siding with the cannon of course. She ultimately was able to chameleon her way into the graces of most professors.

Manny took a stance of activism against the union by defending  the character of Dora. Her growth, her family and herself in general.

It is amazing what the power of self perseverance can do for someone who has gone through the trials of life.

The room was riddled with naysayers and those who sought justice for the blossomed bosom which graced their gazette. Carol showed up with some information she and Juniper discovered about Cady's past 15 minutes of fame on television years before.

Cady was informed by her side kick in people bashing, Blaze Bianles. Another girl who was so deep in selfishness who only gained from others loss. The two women were made for each others sad excuse for being in the class.

Podium's loaded, the crowd loud.
Looking around through a sea of browns, blues and scarfs the interest in such destruction of character was thick.

Dora believed her place would be no more.

The storm outside was thought to be the cause for the,power out - in that moment.

A crash of sparks overtook the stage.

Cady's podium embraced sudden flames and the original documents revealing her sources and the evidence against Dora's stint as a nurse turned to ash.
Blaze got caught in the flame, forever scarring her face.

In the end of the Gazette Saga, the only ones burned were the fire starters themselves.
