"Well, we're just focusing on the French Revolution right now. The questions are pretty basic." Dioptase pushed her worksheet towards Mercy.

Mercy took a look at it. "Oh, this stuff? Here..." She helped Dio until the whole sheet was done, talking to her and letting her ask questions.
It was 3 in the morning when Mercy went to bed, but she didn't have class until the next day. She slept in a little, then woke up, took a shower, and then checked how much homework she still had.
It wasn't much, so she sat down with some popcorn and Gatorade and finished it up. She had just put down her pencil when the dorm's telephone rang. There were two corded phones on the night stands provided, so that if there was an issue with the dorm, like cold water or broken windows, you could call maintenance and let them know.
Mercy was curious about the phone ringing, so she picked it up. "Hello, how may I help you?" There was silence on the other end, except for some minimal breathing.
Mercy asked again. There was more silence, then a chuckle. "Your hair glowed while you were running last night....I'll see you soon."
*click* The phone went dead as Mercy dropped it to the floor. She sat on her bed in shock, face pale and as still a stone.

Dioptase woke to a light slanting through the cracks in blinds, she squinted and covered her face. Her legs rubbed against the comforter as she turned over to unplug her phone from the electrical socket. Dioptase turned it on, 10:06 a.m.

Mercy still sat on her bed in shock. She really couldn't comprehend that phone call. She rubbed at her forehead in confusion.

Dioptase glanced over at Mercy who looked as if she had a migraine, she didn't bother asking. Her legs carried her to kitchen; upon opening the fridge, she discovered that they haven't stocked up in a while. "I'm getting food." she informed Mercy while slipping on some jeans and a pair of moccasins, she kept on the shirt that she had slept in last night.
Dioptase returned after about 50 minutes, she tried turning the door knob while toting her groceries. "Mercy open the door!" Dioptase demanded, not wanting to set down the food and pick it up again.

Mercy had shaken it off and just kept relaxing, she had been reading a book when Dio came back.
"I'm coming!" She opened the door and took the groceries from her hands.
"I got it. Sooo, you doing okay?" She took them and placed them in the room. They had 2 mini firdges and she put the groceries in Dio's minifridge.
"Hows the weather out there? I might go shopping too. I spaced it this morning because of homework."

"I'm fine? The weather is alright, I guess." Dioptase shrugged.

"Good. After I get groceries, I was going to go get some food and go shopping. Wanna come with? They have some good sales downtown."

"Sweet! Lemme get dressed and we can go." Mercy got dressed and grabbed her purse and her grocery backpack. It was a nice thing to carry small groceries in and she didn't need much.
She helped Dio put away her groceries and they left. Mercy picked up some things for her mini-fridge and they went around town, shopping and looking around at the fun shops that were there.
It was getting dark when they decided to walk home. Mercy didn't get anything, but she notice some objects. She especially noticed some jewelry she really liked.
It was a simple gold and silver chain set, but the chains were thick and braided gorgeously. But when she had asked the clerk about them, she was told that they weren't on sale, so she just made note of them and went on.
Mercy was walking alongside Dio, kinda lost in thought, when she heard a noise behind her and whipped around. It was dark, but there were street lamps that illuminated the sidewalk.
"Did you hear that, Dio?"

"What noise?" Dioptase looked left to right.

Mercy placed her hand protectively in front of Dio as she looked into the shadows closely. There was a soft breeze that blew around them, playing with Mercy and Dios hair.

Dioptase scanned the area, "There's literally nothing there." she concluded. "Let's go."

Mercy was about to agree, when one of the shadows moved quickly towards them. Mercy paled, grabbed Dio and started running.
She could hear their footsteps pounding close behind, so she pulled Dio onto her back. "Hang on!" She ran down an alley quickly and zig zagged around town, trying to outrun the chaser and not lead them to their dorm. After a few minutes of running around town, Mercy stopped and hid around a dumpster near a shop close to the dorms. She swayed uneasily and tried to catch her breath. She let Dio get off her back.
"I think they're gone. So...." She turned to Dio with a smile as she tried to breathe. "Am I still being paranoid?"

"Yeah! Something starts moving towards us and the first thing you do is run, you couldn't even see who they were!" Dioptase threw her arms up in the air. She sighed, "You're definitely paranoid."
