The green eyed girl was about to make some half hearted quip about how Zowan seemed to have finally flipped, but her lips wouldn't quite form the words. After the hasty actions of the next few seconds, she was too stunned to move until the door to the infirmary closed firmly. Only then some of the fog lift slightly from her mind, and she gazed shellshocked at the others.
Addie took a half step towards the door, and then seemed to be frozen to the spot as Zowan's words drifted through her mind. That was no ordinary good bye. It wasn't the words themselves which held her glued to the spot, it was the finality in the tone.
That finality left no doubt in her mind that she wouldn't see Zowan Fireside again...possibly forever.
The undiluted mix of certainty and absurdity that thought held made the brunette sway on the spot. She glanced around at her surroundings and suddenly decided she couldn't stand to stay in that little room for one more second. The haze cleared away now that she had a purpose and mind, and she finally realized that Kelly was no longer in the room.
The girl was too out of sorts to say any sort of good bye to the boy left in the room, and she too hurried out without looking behind her. Her steps automatically led her out of the castle and back to the lair.
For what reason, she had no idea.
