Sara did not hear what Kate had said because she had briefly left the kitchen with Amos and after some effort gotten him to stay under a tree a few hundred yards away outside, where she had gotten him tethered with a small rope. The rope would not be enough to hold him but judging from his past behavior if he felt scared he would cry for her and as his cries were a throaty roar she would be able to hear him in the kitchen and come running. Once Amos was suitably secured, she went back to the kitchen to help clean up the mess, entering just after Kate had finished speaking.

Anger. That was the only emotion that could be detected within Heather. No compassion, no common sence, just plain, simple, undeniable, anger. Everything that K'8 had said, was a stab in the heart. She had gone too far and Heather's composure was no longer able to be held. Back home in Brooklyn, when someone started something, you finished it; and that what exactly what Heather was going to do.
Without thinking, the water that spilled all over the floor was suddenly levitating. Heather looked to K'8 with demonic eyes, her white skin turing red. Her eyes glowed blue, more blue than usual. She gritted her teeth, the water was now circling her at rapid speed. "Why....can't you just.........shut.......UP!!" she screamed. The water circling her, hit K'8 with emence force in the stomach from all directions. What Heather didn't expect however, was for the water to freeze into ice. Her anger stayed, but shock overcame her again as she saw K'8's entire body from the neck down, frozen against the chair. The water bender's eyes widened, and she blinked not knowing what to do. How was she going to explain this now? Plus of all things to freeze, why not K'8's mouth? At least no one would need to listen to her complain again.

Guardian listened to every word K'8 spat at him. He felt strange again. His eyes began to burn once more, they started turning from their calm, delicate yellow, to a deep blood red. He started breathing heavily. Smoke began to emit from his mouth with every exhaling breath he took.
After seeing Aqua's anger show, Guardian became even more emotional. He let out an extremely loud ROAR and started to stomp towards K'8's frozen body. With every stomp the entire mantion rumbled, and he left dents in the kitchen floor wherever he stepped. He was furious, never has he experienced such a feeling. All he wanted to do is take his anger out on the one upsetting him.
Guardian hunched down so his massive teeth were in front of K'8's face. "YOU" he said in a voice completely different from his usual one. It was much deeper, and much more angrier than before. "YOU THINK YOU KNOW ME?!" he snarled at her with puffs of smoke comming out as he spoke, "YOU THINK I'M WEAK?!!" he yelled out loud enough that a deaf man would hear. He went on a rampage, he started smashing the walls and bashed his fist into the sink, pulling out the drain pipe and tossing it to the ground in front of K'8.
"AAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" yelled out Guardian as a giant blast of fire obliterated the wall behind K'8. He grabbed K'8's frozen body and flew out of the new truck sized whole he just made. He hit a giant tree in his way with his fist, it broke in half and he just kept flying higher into the sky. "LETS SEE HOW FAR WE HAVE TO FLY BEFORE YOU DEVELOPE ACROPHOBIA!!" he screamed as he flew yet even higher.

Kitty stayed quiet as she let the kids try to work things out themselves, the mature thing to do. If they could work it out themselves, they'd be stronger for it, and she'd be proud of them. All seemed to be going relatively well, until k'8 spoke. She was outspoken, that was for sure, and she was definitely not afraid to speak her mind, but Kitty dreaded the consequences.
Sara, for some reason, had left the room and come back. This was not missed. "I didn't say you could leave, Sara," the team leader said sternly.
Then Heather blew up first. Kitty took a deep breath to remain calm and phased again as all the water that was circling the girl's body went to where k'8 sat as she yelled. She watched in surprise as it turned into ice around the girl, but then quickly regained composure, looking to the water bender. "Heather! Calm down RIGHT NOW!" she yelled, seeing that when the girl got mad her abilities got out of hand.
Then she saw Guardian begin to lose it, turning her phased head toward him as she hovered a few inches off the ground. He was starting to smoke, his anger growing with each second. She pinched her eyes shut for a split second, opening them to the sound of his stomping, and then he blew up the wall, taking k'8 with him and taking off. She saw him hit a tree and then obliterate it. Damnit, these kids have anger issues! she thought as she looked at Heather and Sara with a deadly stare, her composure quickly failing her. "Do NOT leave this room, so help me," she said, and then floated to the hole where she could see Guardian carrying k'8 higher and higher.
Giving her powers a go, she remained phased, and allowed herself to rise higher and higher until she was reaching Guardian's level. Her hair was flowing wildly though the air passed through her. Her facial expression was beyond angry, especially as she had been keeping as calm as she could, as she then bellowed, "GUARDIAN GET DOWN TO THE GROUND RIGHT NOW! I HAVE HAD ENOUGH NOW GET BACK INTO THE KITCHEN AND CALM DOWN! AND K'8! DO NOT INSTIGATE! YOU HAVE CAUSED ENOUGH TROUBLE FOR ONE DAY NOW BOTH OF YOU SHUT IT!"
She hovered up there with them as she waited with her hands on her hips for them to go back down to the ground. She was going to need a word with Colossus about Guardian, and maybe even Miss Frost about the whole thing. It had gotten too far out of hand, and k'8, nor anyone else was making it better. She couldn't believe that her team, her own team, was acting like this, and even Guardian. She was appalled.

Guardian stopped in mid-air. He looked at Shadowkat with his eyes glowing red. He was about to drop K'8, but he started gaining some self-control back. His red eyes started to disappear and the yellow pigment came back. He was calm again. He looked at K'8 in his arms, then to Shadowkat, then down to the ground and realized how high he was and what he was about to do to K'8.
Guardian slowly flew to the ground and put K'8 down softly, then he stepped back away from her, looking at the whole in the wall he made. "No...not again..." he said as he turned around and spread his wings. "Not again" he repeated as he flew away in horror at what he had just done and what he almost did.

Sara cringed in the corner hoping not to be frozen or incenerated as her teammates fought, too terrified to yell out. Shadowkat might be angry at her right now but at least Amos was out of that place. Had he been there he most certainly would have been terrified and done something that she would regret. She had to protect him at all costs. Also, she didn't want him to see her cry, which she was doing now. She was sobbing uncontrollably. Still she tried to hold herself together enough to listen. Guardian had gone shooting through the wall and Amos was tied to a tree not too far outside the Mansion. If he saw the commotion, he might get scared and call for her and she would need to go calm him. Heck, if he saw a squirrel he might get scared. It was cute and tiring. But right now what she was seeing in the kitchen was anything but cute. It was just horrifying. She'd been scared of Kate but had thought of Heather and particularly of Guardian that they were friendly, safe people....now she was scared of them too. If it weren't for Amos she would have run away from the school, and unlike her first night she would not have stopped until she was very, very far away where nobody could come get her.

K'8 's eyes grew wide and panicked at all that had happened in the few short seconds. She tried to gasp for a breath but the ice was covering her nose and mouth, the overspray of Heather's target cutting off her air supply burning with the intense cold. She was struggling to remain conscious. Her eyes looked to Guardian, pleading for him to not toss her to the ground. She didn't want to die. Her eyes closed, unconscious, before she had been returned to the ground. She was not at all well at this very moment.

Like K'8 Heather was completely shocked from everything. When her ice power suddenly emerged, her anger dissolved into confusion and fear. It wasn't the first time her ice powers had appeared, however it always came but surprise. Several seconds later, the water bender awoke from her daze and confusion, only to hear a loud crash through the kitchen wall. OH MY GOD HE HAS GONE INSANE she screamed within her mind. The entire scene was too much. And poor Shadowkat had to deal with it all. Heather felt a stab of guilt. She kept screwing up as each day progressed.
She ran to the open hole in the wall and watched her team leader chase after the dragon boy. She prayed that K'8 would be OK and not thrown or dropped. He wouldn't KILL HER would he? She froze at the site above her, not able to scream or speak or even run to get help from the headmasters. Thankfully, Aleksey lowered back to the ground and placed K'8 down. A giant breath exhaled from Heather's lungs, not realizing she was holding it.

Outside tied to the tree, Amos, fortunately did not realize the gravity of what was happening. Seeing Guardian burst through the wall with Kate in his arms and fly up high into the sky surprisingly did not phase him one bit, even though he normally got scared easily, as Guardian was far away from him so he did not feel personally threatened. Being a baby he also had no idea what kind of danger Kate was in. All Amos noted was the blur of Guardian's bright red color and his flapping cape, and it was that blur of color which elicited from him a small giggle as he clapped his hands with delight.

Shadowkat hovered up in the air with Guardian, and she was glowering, waiting for him to obey. Her face remained hard even as his red eyes reverted back to the yellow she had briefly seen before he had lost his temper. She watched as he went back down to the ground and placed k'8 down. Up in the air still, she clenched her phased fists and inhaled deeply and exhaled deeply before she let herself descend back down as well, unphasing. Now that she was corporeal again, she walked in through the large hole in the wall that Guardian had made in his anger. Her eyes flashed around at the other two girls in the room. Sara was bawling her eyes out. Heather looked like she had frozen up for a second, but then almost releived when she saw her let out a breath. k'8 just didn't look well, and with good reason, but she had instigated this all. Kitty had had enough. Turning to Guardian before he flew away, she looked on him scornfully. "Guardian, you do not EVER do that to a fellow student no matter HOW mad you are. I don't care how angry you get but you do NOT pull that, and you do NOT damage the school. You need to learn to control your anger, and soon. I think I'll be speaking to Colossus, and maybe even Miss Frost about all of this," she said, and then looked to all of them that was left: k'8, Heather, and Sara. "This has all gotten way out of hand. Each of you need to learn how to control yourselves, and half of you need to learn to follow directions," she continued, her voice still stern, but controlled. Her expression didn't soften. "Are you alright k'8?" she asked with a sigh as she raised a hand to pinch the bridge of her nose and squeezed her eyes shut for a moment, not yet noticing that k'8 was unconscious.

Still crying, Sara stiffled the urge to insist that Shadowkat was being a little bit unfair. After all she hadn't done anything, really. Kate had released those awful demons and caused an uproar, laughing while they devestated the kitchen. Heather had attacked Kate with the water and then frozen her in ice. Guardian had rampaged through the kitchen and then burned a whole in the wall and abducted Kate to drop her to her death had not Shadowkat intervened. All Sara had done was try to give Amos some breakfast and tell Kate not to mess with him. And now here she was getting blamed for this mess. But she didn't say any of that. She just tried to pull herself together. She was still the same terrified little girl she was when she came to school. It was all really too much. Without the golem to take care of she would go completely to pieces. She didn't care about anything else. She had to stop crying. She had to make Shadowkat believe she was solid as a rock so there would be no need to question her ability to care for herself and Amos. So she said nothing. Nothing she could say would help her achieve that goal.

Sean had stood by awkwardly next to Kevin as he watched the fight progress. It was quite heated between this one girl who was dressed like them girls in the punk music videos he saw on TV, and everyone else for the most part. A nice looking teacher was there too, didn't look as old as he expected a teacher to be. She didn't look happy in the least bit. He watched quietly with Kevin, his eyes widening when Heather went nuts on the girl punk girl and for one horrible moment, he thought the dragon guy Kevin pointed at had killed her when he smashed through the wall. Oh no, I hope that girl is alright, no one deserves to be treated like that for a couple of petty insults, Sean thought as his mind snapped into reality and he rushed forward out of the hole in the wall outside to the lady he assumed was the teacher. "Pardon me ma'm but may I help in any way? You look like ye might have your hands a bit full and I can help if you need me to," he said politely and looked down at the frozen and unconscious girl worried if she was alright or not. Well my first morning is certainly turnin' out ta be interestin.

Unable to answer her team leader because she was unconscious, because she couldn't breathe, because the overspray of Aqua's blast had frozen her nose and mouth and the ice was not allowing her chest to expand to pull in any more air k'8 said nothing. She lay there DYING! She looked a lovely shade of blue however. ((( UM, HELLO? CAN SOMEBODY SAVE MY ASS !?! )))

Kitty let go of the bridge of her nose and opened her tightly shut eyes to look around. Sara was still crying, and a boy had entered, offering help. "Um, no thank you, it's okay," she said, shaking her head a bit. In the midst of everything she hadn't realized the extent to which k'8 was frozen and unconscious, and she didn't see it until she saw how covered up in ice she was when she didn't answer. She needed to get her out of the ice, and now. She also noticed a second later that Guardian had flown away. She closed her eyes and exhaled sharply, but then opened her eyes and turned back to k'8.
"Oh, no no no," she muttered, realizing what Heather's anger had done. Her quick thinking mind tried to think of a way to get her out as soon as possible. Stepping to the girl's frozen form, she bent down to where the girl lay on the ground and phased so her arms could reach through the ice. Taking the girl by the shoulders gently, she made her phased too, and lifted her up out of the ice and helping her to sit in the nearest chair. They both unphased, and Kitty put a hand to k'8's cold face.
"k'8," she said gently even though she couldn't hear her from unconsciousness. She rubbed at her arms and then looked to the remaining students. "Stay," she commanded as she phased again, and phased k'8 too, swiftly hovering through the remaining walls of the kitchen as she took the girl to the nearest full bathroom where there was a tub. She laid her in there and unphased, turning the water on so that it ran warmly, a comfortable warm that would help her come to. She let it fill all the while holding k'8's head up to keep out of the water. She hoped it would work. If she couldn't maintain order and control, then what kind of leader and teacher was she?

Heather stood there, watching K'8 turn blue. The guilt hit her like a ton of brick and she could never forgive herself. But K'8 was just so, annoying and immature. Then again, so was Heather, considering she allowed K'8 to bother her so. But K'8 did push it too far. She couldn't shut up.
She watched Shadowkat phase and take K'8 out of her frozen prison. However hearing her forceful tone when telling the students to "stay", made Heather actually fear her team leader. What was going to happen to her? Was she going to be kept in the basement like Haven? She didn't deserve that did she? And now that there was a hole in the kitchen wall, Ms. Frost and Cyclops were not going to be happy. Heather felt her eyes water, however held them back. She didn't notice Sara crying or that Sean came in. Right now, Heather was too worried about herself and what was going to be her punishment.
