Jure was in the middle of teaching a class on physics this time. She had been, for the past while, lecturing and providing live demonstrations of various fundamentals of physics. While at this point in time she was well aware that her students at least knew the absolute basics, today Jure was going through the various facets of electromagnetism. She made sure of its place as one of the four known fundamental forces, one of the first things she had mentioned at the start of today's lesson was - "This particular force," yawn, "is basically the one that's behind all the... observable things that happens in one's daily life." Jure had spent a majority of the time making a story out of things like how light, electromagnetic radiation, and the like, worked, since they were major players in how humans for the most part lived. At the end of the lesson, Jure had expected most of the students to have learned at least a few new terms, and to look up their definition if need be via books or the local Internet. She knew that only local sites and resources worked due to the situation outside yet a majority of her students probably did not. Eventually, at the lesson's conclusion, which also happened to be Jure's last lesson and the last period for the day, she let the students file out and leave to go home first, waiting to see if there were any stragglers.

When all's said and done, Jure often did not enjoy watching the students either walk out or run out excitedly to go home. She usually had things still to do at school and did not particularly enjoy staying back to mark papers. The teacher yawned and stared out the window. Murmuring to no one in particular, she wondered. "It feels like I slept through something very important... Hum, it couldn't have been anything impo'tant..." she scratched her head and stepped out of the classroom, shuffling along the corridor. She smiled wryly knowing to herself that she had nothing important left to do at school today, so she could go home and smoke for a while.

"...Did I leave anyone behind?" she wondered aloud.

[Tristan Carter]

Tristan was wandering the hall, wondering if there was a way to apply electromagnetism against the creatures. After all, he was just one guy. How could he expect to defeat everything with just him and Pyro Jack? He needed a weapon capable of defeating everything out there. He would prefer to burn some stuff, but electricity could be useful in the fight.Sigh, this would be so much easier with other people around with these abilities. Still, it was up to him.

He wasn't paying attention to where he was going, and very nearly ran into the lady who had been teaching physics. However, he had been refining his reflexes lately, and was able to quickly dodge. "Umm..." He started to apologize, but for the life of him he couldn't remember her name. "Sorry, Miss. I wasn't paying attention to where I was going. Pardon me."

He kept walking on, but at a more careful pace, but a sudden thought came to him. He quickly turned and asked the teacher a question that had bee bothering him. "Miss? About your lesson... Is there any way to convert electromagnetism into a large scale weapon?" He considered what he said and how suspicious it would come across, and added "out of curiosity, of course."
