(How would the Library tell him that, though?)
(How would the Library tell him that, though?)
(Nvm, he might just hit a brick wall here and jump to his own conclusions. He has been observant so far….)
(he could look up info but then emma is in the next corridor, and communicating to her illeyitome allies. or maybe he looks up emma's files and found that no illeyitome named emma wright ever existed?)
(He'll search for info about the serpents, not find much, consider it, then turn to Emma's files and find nothing. Go from there?)

(okay, can @ShadowMisfit start off this arc?)
(I don't really know what to do with Aidan so…let's say he passed out again. I'm just excited for Zack)
Zack went to the computer and flipped it on. The background, a combination of the four clans' symbols surrounded by white feathers, loaded and displayed, "Welcome, user." Zack dismissed it and opened the catalog. Quickly locating a couple of books that could be of use, he wrote down their locations and set out to find them.
After reading them and finding nothing, Zack threw them in the air in his own rage. There was nothing on these Serpents. Zack had heard of them, but there hadn't been much impact from them for their names to be written down.
Where did Emma get the idea that these lowlives could have done that? Or get that equipment?
Emma.
She had been causing issues from the get-go. Pissing people off, causing problems. She apologizes, then gets right back to it.
Zack went back to the computer and started typing.
The bell signaling the end of school rang, and Emma looked around for Zack. However, he search was unfruitful, so she decided to turn to the administrative office. (they keep trackers on the students in case of emergencies) "Mr. Gold, where's Zack right now? I can't find him,"
"The… library," Mr. Gold said, pausing slightly. "I gave him access because he wanted to investigate some suspicious activity on campus,"
The pencil in Emma's hand clattered to the floor as she turned ghost white. "You what?"
Seeing as no doctors were in the room currently, Aidan sat up. He grimaced, holding his side. He noticed that it had been wrapped up in bandages, and it didn't sting as much as before. Still, it hurt.
(Well I guess he didn't steal anything then…)
Zack clicked through until he could pull up Illeyitome's public archival website. They had put it up more as memoration than anything else, but they also posted their current members in a filterable list, in accordance to peace-time law. As he scroled through the list of alive, female members attending the academy, he corners of his mouth slowly fell, until a visible look of dismay showed on his face.
She wasn't there.
One second there was a monitor in front of him, proudly displaying the symbol of peace at last. The next there was a lockdown screen. Zack signed off and sat back, sighing.
Emma sat in front of her laptop, sighing in relief after she had just used the secret protocol to shut down the Illeyitome archives. Hopefully, Zack didn't notice…
Zack was already on his way to admin, fully intending to turn Emma in right off the bat. But just as he got there, something made him stop. He thought about Emma's brother. Regardless whether or not she was an Illeyitome, or whether she was actually his sister, that brother must have served as some motivation for her, surely.
Lock her up, and where does that leave her? It wouldn't be right.
He got so tied up in that thought that he completely missed Mr. Gold's greeting the first time.(Play him for me?)
"Ah, hello, Zack," Mr. Gold greeted. "So what did you find in the library?"
Zack snapped back to reality, his mind resolved.
"Nothing but a small clue, Mr. Gold. I need Emma to help me with it, though. Have you seen her around?"
(Ruby will be eating strawberries if anyone needs her.)
"She's in the girl's dorm, but I'll send her down if you want," (gtg, bye)
(Aw byeee!)
Zack sighed, smiling a fake smile to signify sarcastic dissapointment, "That'd be great, sir." (See ya around.)
(Ruby will be eating strawberries if anyone needs her.)
(come visit Aidan he's lonely)
Aidan sighed heavily once he saw that no one else was in the room, which was a big mistake because it made his wound sting more. Why are you even surprised. Mom and dad don't care, why should anyone else. He needed to get out of here. Hospitals freaked him out.
Emma ran down the stairs. "Ruby! Ruby! I found something…" She trailed off as she noticed Zack and Mr. Gold in the hallway.
"Ah, there she is," Mr. Gold said pleasantly. "I'll leave you two to talk,"
“Room 417.” The person at the front counter finally said after a lot of convincing.
“Thanks.” Ruby smiled, turning and walking to room 417.
Ruby walked up to the door. 417 Ruby took a deep breath and sighed, she knocked on the door.
Zack gave Emma a hard look, then jerked his head in a gesture for her to follow. He began down the chemistry hall, not looking to see if she followed. Vix would make sure of that.
"So what are you?" He asked.
