Vern was knocked aside as Chronus dashed past, slamming him against a locker. His head connected with it and he slid down, grimacing in pain.
"Jesus christ," he managed to get out, after a few moments of his head spinning. "Ow, my head...!" He stood up again, all thoughts of the vampire lost as he moved away from the crowd. The bell, the voices, the scents, they were all too much for him with his new-found headache. Wonderful, Vern thought as he stepped outside. Great start to the first day. Still, I doubt anyone will mind if I'm a few minutes late to class. He sighed as he massaged his temples. His power certainly did not do much for his mental health.
It was then that he noticed the scent of another nearby; he glanced sideways and saw a red-haired girl lying on the floor. Her emotions... perhaps slightly taut, like the strings of an instrument, yet fairly solid somehow. At least that was the first impression he got of the wisp of scent that accosted his mind fom her direction.
"You gonna head to class?" Vern called over to her as he leant against the brick walls outside the doors to the school.
