Seeing the two of them fighting like that, Aria was infuriated and wanted to punch both of them. But then she looked at Helen in her arms and calmed down.
When she looked up again, Joseph and Jacob were locked in a fist fight. Professor Iris had not yet noticed them as she was busy hovering over the injured boy and seemed to preoccupied.
Aria twirled her fingers and warm wind blew in from the window. It's speed increased as it reached Joseph and Jacob and tore them apart. But neither of them calmed down as Jacob began to tear at the wind and Joseph tried to bend it away.
Aria sighed and the ground under both of their feet changed shape. Two hands formed of earth came out and each wrapped around the the two boys respectively. Seeing that they could do nothing, both Jacob and Joseph stopped struggling.
Professor Iris had noticed this commotion and walked over to Aria. She said, "Miss Aria, what are you doing?"
Aria: "You see Professor, I couldn't have stopped them myself. They're both too strong. And I had to stop the fight somehow."
Professor Iris looked around at the mess Aria had created and sighed.
Aria: "I'll restore everything."
Before Professor Iris could reply, Professor Thomas came in, accompanied by the boy who Professor Iris had sent.
The first thing that he did was look around at Joseph and Jacob captured and turn towards Aria, "Ho. You did that. Very nice."
Aria's lips curved into a small smile when Professor Iris's voice rung out, "If you will, please keep the compliments for later."
Professor Thomas coughed, "Of course. What happened?"
Professor Iris explained the whole situation.
What had happened was this.....
Helen and Jacob were standing in the line and Professor Iris was fighting a student.
Just then, some random boy had commented, looking at Helen, "Oh. What a nice gal."
Jacob wanted to teach that boy a lesson but Helen had stopped him.
But he had really lost his cool when the boy had walked over and got hold of Helen's wrist and began pulling her, saying, "Oh come on now princess. How about you come with me? We can have a little private training session until your turn comes."
Before anyone knew what was happening, Jacob had punched the boy full in the face. The boy was skinny and could never defeat Jacob in a fight. So he had chosen the only option available, he had bended water and the blades had cut Jacob's cheek and forehead, blood dripping out.
And as Helen heard Jacob wincing in pain, she suddenly heard a thud some distance away, and immediately felt Jacob was not beside her.
The boy now grabbed onto Helen's wrist again and said, "Now that oaf is out of the way, what do you think about my offer?"
Helen was already panicking when she felt Jacob's presence leave her side. Hearing the boy, she had no way to know how much Jacob was hurt, and she assumed the worst.
Thinking that Jacob was badly wounded, Helen had gone into a fit of rage and even before she knew what was happening, had beaten the boy to such a state.
She had only calmed down when Jacob had hugged her saying, "I'm all right. I'm here. I'm all right."
