Pᴀɴᴀᴄᴇᴀ Hᴀᴍᴍᴇʀ

Pan sighed as she waited for her mother, Jack watching her amused as Pan rolled her eyes in boredom for the ninth time(yes he was counting).

Pan glanced up at the clock on the wall for the twentieth time when a woman who looked almost exactly the same as Pan rushed in and grabbed the Hammer girl in a hug.

Pan smiled as she patted her mother's back.

"What happened this time?" Thalia asked after she had released her daughter.

Pan scrunched up her nose at the direct question.

Jack watched the Hammer girl curiously, wondering how she'd answer.

Pan pouted at her mother before shaking her head and making movements with her hands. While Jack was confused, Thalia wasn't. Thalia scowled as her daughter went on.

"Why didn't you tell me and your father sooner?" Thalia asked her daughter.

Pan didn't "say" anything, her hands lay still as her face remained blank and her mother sighed at her, "Panacea," Thalia shook her head at the girl, placing her hand on her daughter's knee.

Pan cracked a small grin to Jack who chuckled amused at the girl's antics while Thalia rolled her eyes at them.

"Ms. Hammer?" Nurse Darby's voice sounding drawing each of the three's attention to the woman in the doorway.

"That's me," Thalia smiled. Her hand dropping off of her daughter's leg.

"We have your daughters release paperwork ready," Nurse Darby said, a kind smile on her face.

Thalia gave her daughter a look before standing up, "I'll be right back," She told Pan who nodded.

Thalia smiled as she quickly followed after Nurse Darby.

Pan silently chuckled as she rolled her eyes at her mother's over protectiveness.

"You didn't tell your parents?" Jack asked, his voice curious but cautious, hoping he wouldn't cross a line.

Pan shrugged, an easy going look on her face, even if her body had stiffened slightly. Jack got the message easily enough and shut up.

"Panacea, are you ready?" Thalia asked as she stood in the doorway with Nurse Darby beside her.

Pan nodded with a small smile as she stood up, grabbing her bag from beside her feet. Jack standing up after her.

"Thank you, again, Ms. Darby," Thalia smiled to the Nurse as the four of them walked to the exit.

"It was no trouble, it was my son who found her," Nurse Darby said, motioning to Jack who's cheeks reddened slightly.

"I was just walking home when I found her, it wasn't a big deal," Jack said sheepishly.

Pan grinned, bumping his shoulder with hers, surprising the other three as she shook her head at him.

"No problem, I guess," Jack chuckled, running a hand through his hair.

Thalia chuckled as she placed a hand on her daughter's shoulder, "We'd best be off then, thank you both again."

"See you tomorrow, Pan," Jack waved, admit a little awkwardly, as the mother and daughter walked off.

Panacea waved back to Jack before following her mother to the car.

🛠️

"Your Principal and I are going to be having a conversation today," Thalia said, breaking the awkward silence that was humid in the air.

Pan shrugged, her facial expression passive, not really caring.

Thalia sighed, "Your father and I will be alternating between driving you to school and back home," She continued, "We don't want you getting hurt like that again."

Pan nodded as she fingered the hospital bracelet that she had yet to take off.

Thalia pulled the car to a stop at the shoulder of the road, "Come on, Panacea," She said as she took off her seatbelt and exited the car.

Pan scrunched up her nose at her full name but got out off the car nevertheless, her black bag being swung around as she slid her arms through the arm straps.

Thalia locked the car and started up the stairs to school, and Pan followed after her with a silent sigh.

"Will you be okay for today?" Thalia asked Pan, glancing at her. Pan nodded with an easy going smile.

"Have fun, then," Thalia smiled as the bell warning the students to get to their first period classes sounded.

Pan waved to her mother before seemingly disappearing into the crowd of students.

Thalia sighed before heading to the main office.

ᗰIKO ᑎᗩKᗩᗪᗩI

Pan easily managed to get to her class before majority of her peers. Slipping into her familiar seat at her desk by the window, Pan's happy-go-lucky smile dropped from her face as she brought out her books.

When the teacher finally arrived, (four minutes late) a familiar exchange student burst into the classroom, "Sorry!" Miko grinned, not caring at all.

The teacher scowled at the disruptive girl, "Sit down, Ms. Nakadai," the teacher all but growled out.

"Glady, sir," Miko winked as she gave him a mock salute before thumping down in the only free seat in the classroom.

Right next to Pan.

"Hey, I know you," Miko mused as she tapped her chin with her finger, "What's your name again?"

Pan arched an eyebrow at the girl, silently questioning what the hell was wrong with her, before rolling her eyes and showing the exchange student her book.

"Pan?" Miko tilted her head before a wide grin crossed her face, "Like Peter Pan?" she teased.

Pan rolled her eyes, and Miko snorted.

"Nah, you wish you were as cool as him," Miko grinned.

Pan glanced at the grinning fifteen year old, pink tip pigtailed, Japanese girl before letting a smile trickle onto her lips.

"Yas!" Miko cheered loudly, causing the rest of the class and the teacher to look at the cheering girl dancing in the middle of the lesson.

"Ms. Nakadai," their teacher snapped at her, "Sit back down right this instant!"

Miko pouted(Pan snorted quietly, causing the girl to grin in victory), "Sorry, sir," Miko smiled, the sarcasm dripping from her voice and the teacher's face growing redder by the moment, "It won't happen again, sir."

Their teacher was fuming silently as he glared down the exchange student, before he finally cracked, "Detention after school, Ms. Nakadai."

Miko shrugged as she plopped her butt back onto her seat, grinning enthusiastically at Pan who was shaking her head with an amused smile on her face.

Trouble does, after all, seem to follow the Hammer girl. One way or another.

Lol. Finally had a good free time period to finish this that I started shortly after posting Ch2.

Miko is such a... a... a... a Miko.
There are no words that I can think of to describe her.

(I'm really surprised that I haven't actually gone into any of the transformers plotlines yet. Yay!)

Hope you enjoyed!
