AFTER CLAIRE'S DEATH

Engel was sitting in Miss Bloomie's science class, his left eye injured after saving Claire from Miss Circle. Although, even with that, Claire still got killed by ∆lice...

Engel had a miserable expression on his face, barely holding his head up with one of his black hands, as Oliver, Zip, and Edward, the ones who were technically responsible for Claire's death as they tricked her to go into ∆lice's room by an exit sign, were throwing crumpled papers at him.

Bubble, his only friend left, stared at him with sadness, before continuing to listen to Miss Bloomie teaching.

After about four paper balls thrown at him, he fully lost the strength to hold up his head anymore, as he slammed his head down on the desk.

Oliver, Zip, and Edward continued throwing the paper balls at him, but as it went on, Zip and Edward's throwing speed was slowing down, and Oliver was seeing it.

Eventually...both Zip and Edward just stopped, both of them glaring at Oliver, as Oliver looked confused, and annoyed.

"What?"

Oliver said in annoyance, as Zip spoke out soon after.

"As much as I'd HATE to apologize to him, we did literally take part in MURDERING his only friend."

Zip said in annoyance, still glaring at Oliver, putting emphasis on the word "murdering". Oliver had fake-fallen asleep, thinking they were gonna give up, but...

"WAKE UP!"

Zip practically yelled at Oliver, Oliver opening his eyes, the annoyance still there, as he rolled his eyes before speaking.

"Yeah, yeah, apologize- NOT!"

Oliver said in a smug tone of voice, a smirk on his face, only for him to get slapped by Zip's black hand.

"OW!"

Oliver said, his expression of smugness going back to annoyance.

"Fine, I'll APOLOGIZE."

Oliver said in annoyance, as he began getting up off the table he was at with Zip and Edward, and started to walk over to the miserable Engel.
