Chapter 45 by Almax Almax

Where should you go??

NEWTON. He'll be in the Gym, right?? He can help you!

You burst through the Gym's double doors. Since first and second years are in classes right now, it's mostly empty. Looks like nobody has a free period, then.... the third years are mostly self-run when it comes to studies, so they're not in here either. But there's there are two things you can always rely on -- one thing is that Newton will be working out, and the other thing is Newton himself.

"NEWTON!!" You shout, running up to him in a full sprint. Your eyes are welling up a bit, just because you feel really bad about being so late to class and really don't want to get in trouble, but you try to be brave and keep the tears in. All the same, you really need Newton's emotional support at the moment.

He turns to you with a smile, stopping the weird-looking dance he was doing.

"Oh, hey friend!" He greets you jovially. "Are you on a free period right now?"

"NO!" You reply, impacting into him in a big hug for protection. "I'M LOST! I DON'T KNOW WHERE TO GO!"

He bends down for a second to set down the weights he's holding, and returns the hug.

"Hey, it's alright Debbie -- what class have you got?"

Since he's so buff, you're feeling a bit better already, and with only one sniffle you're more calmed down. You lean back from your hug to look up at his face.

"I don't knowwwww!" You say. "Have you seen any of my classmates? They're not in any of the rooms we've used before!"

"Sorry friend, I haven't." Newton thinks for a second. His eyes sparkle as he comes up with an idea. "Oh! But if they aren't in the classrooms, couldn't it be possible that they're on a class fitness visit to the Gym?"

You blink up at him a few times. Releasing the hug, you take a step back, and look around the empty Gym. Newton does the same. A few seconds later, his enthusiasm deflates, and he turns back to you.

"Drat. Well, it was worth a look."

"Do you know what I might have?" You ask. "Are there any classes that are in weird rooms, for first years? Or... do you know what my timetable's like at all?"

"Sorry, friend, I don't. If you want, I could help you try to find one?" He offers. You shake your head.

"No, it's okay..." You say. You'd feel bad taking him away from his workout, and you don't think it would make things much faster. Besides, you're a bit calmer again now. Maybe your search will be more successful from here. You can still make it if you hurry, right?

You wave goodbye to Newton quickly, and run out of the Gym at full speed again. But where will you search next?

Where to search, where to search...?
