The four that had gone to get backup broke free of the cover of the forest just as the sun was setting, startling the professors who were making a campfire.
Antoine was the closest to them, he had been stacking up wood. He straightened up with a deep frown on his face, "Louis? What's the matter?"
Louis couldn't speak even if he wanted to, out of breath from all the running they had to do.
"Get them some water," Another professor stepped forward, Antoine going off to do as he said.
Alois was the one to step forward, "I need to speak to the Head Chancellor, I'm aware that you can contact him."
The professor looked wary like he was about to be served hypertension on a steaming platter, he hesitated for a split second before gesturing to the four of them. "Come with me." He said, leading them to his tent.
