Chapter 0410

Nina

The end of the semester was just around the corner, which meant that final exams were on their way. And considering how much time I had spent that semester dealing with what felt like everything except for my classes, I needed to study.

When I wasn't training the new recruits with Enzo over the following week, I was studying in the library. I stayed up late every night to cram as much as I could, and found myself reverting back to the way that I used to be before it felt as though the world was falling apart; just a normal college student who wanted to pass her exams. If I pushed everything else out of my mind, it did feel as though everything was normal.

But it wasn't.

And I couldn't really push everything else out of my mind for more than five minutes. With the Crescents potentially returning at any moment, it felt as though the world was collapsing in on me. It made it difficult to focus on studying, and if I was being honest, the fact that the school was still running at this point almost felt silly to me. I wished that everything could just be put on hold until the Crescents were no longer a threat, but at the same time I knew that the Crescents would likely be a threat for a long time, and the world needed to go on. Students had already paid their tuition, and future doctors and lawyers were studying to go out into the world. Just because the Crescents were hell-bent on taking over the world didn't mean that it needed to stop turning.
