When the clouds of London had turned a stormy gray, and the first droplet of the London rain had hit an unsuspecting madams nose, Julia was in second period, listening to her teacher drawl on about The Industrial Revolution. She hadn't seen the warning signs of rain, the weather folks hurrying inside; the pedestrians taking out their umbrellas; the members sneaking towards their designated entrances; she was too busy trying not to fall asleep. It wasn't because of the subject they were studying (she quite loved it actually) but of her professor; the slow drawl of his silent voice alongside the gray of his hair and the almost ancient suit of his made it almost impossible for her to stay awake.

So you see, it wasn't Julia's fault that she only noticed the rain when it started pouring, nor that she was late to one of the most important meetings of The Imminence of Gray.

"Mister Muta, there seems to be a problem with my stomach, may I go see the nurse?" Julia asked this in a strained tone, grasping her stomach and scrunching her face for extra measure. Like he always did, he dismissed the girl, when even he knew that she was perfectly fine.

As Julia exited she wondered how long it'd be until he started questioning her actions, how long until he started figuring out the pattern. She put that thought out of her mind and pushed on the metallic doors that led out of her school, taking in a deep breath of London's rainy weather before sprinting towards The Big Ben.
