A TRIUMPHANT SMILE

THEY didn't wait long. A few minutes after the call that Snow made to the vice-chairman, the head teacher of the Disciplinary Committee and her secretary came rushing in. Once she entered the utility room and saw the situation inside, she could immediately tell what was happening.

Three men were holding down four unconscious younger men. Based on the state of the four, there must have been quite the struggle here. Then, when she glanced to her left, she saw Snow Campbell comforting a beautiful black-haired teenager. 

The youth was in a terrible state. His hair was disheveled. His clothes were in a disarray. And there was a startling red mark on his cheek, as if someone had slapped him.

"W-what happened here?" the secretary said, clearly shocked by the situation.
