A loud bell rang though Eden Hall, signaling the ending of school for the day. Doors flew open as students quickly made their way though the halls.

"Finally!" Dean Portman, fellow hockey team member of the Ducks and deadly Bash Brother yelled out loud as he exited his last class of the day.

School had started about two weeks ago and already he hated it, the teachers were already piling them with mountains of homework along with the hard practices their couch was giving them, along with the Varsity hockey team still continued to pick on the Ducks, even though it was the Ducks Sophomore year.

"It's wasn't so bad Portman" Charlie Conway, caption of the Ducks said as they continued down the hall towards the cafeteria for dinner.

"Anyway, have any of you guys noticed a certain Bash Brother has been rather quite and lost in thought lately?" Charlie asked as he and the Ducks gathered their food before sitting down at their usual table.

"Now that you mention it" Adam said as he sat down, soon followed the rest of the Ducks.

"Fulton has been acting rather strange lately" he continued as he took a bite out of what appeared to be pasta, well, at least he hoped, "Has he said anything to you Portman, you know since you are rooming with him this time?" Adam asked the large enforcer.

Portman, who had a fork in mid air slowly set it down on his plate before sighing while shaking his head, silently truth be told he was concerned for his best friend.

"No" Portman said as he seemed to pause for a moment. "He's been very quite lately and I often find him sitting in our dorm room deep in thought and in silence, when usually we would have music blasting" he said.

"I hope he's alright" Julie 'The Cat' Gaffney said as her best friend Connie Moreau nods in agreement.

"By the way" Connie said as she looks around the table, "Where is Fulton?"

"Who knows, taking a leek maybe" Averman says as the rest of the Ducks turn and look at him, all yelling out "Averman!" None of them really wanted to hear something like that while they were eating.

"What?!" Averman says as he looks around innocently while the rest of the Ducks continue to wonder and worry about their fellow teammate and fellow Bash Brother Fulton Reed.
