Sean was used to the examinations that schools required of transfer students, but that didn't mean he had to like them. He found the experience humiliating and overly drawn-out. He parked his bike outside, chaining it before entering the automatic doors of the large, white building. The waiting room was filled with coughing, wheezing, and children crying. There was even one pale fellow with his head hanging over a bag to catch his vomit. If I'm not sick yet, I will be by the time I leave, Sean thought as he let out a quiet, cynical chuckle. Walking up to the check in, he signed his name on the forms and notified the clerk, "I have an appointment for a physical." The clerk simply pointed a thuroughly cleaned finger towards a chair that Sean could sit in while he waited.
Sean sighed as he took a seat, flicking oppen his zippo and lighting it in one quick movement, watching the paterns in the flame leap and dance. Fire is our power, yet it is taken for granted by so many. It destoys and we make it create. We change our world to suit our needs, but our needs are dictated so much by the flame. The purifying flame should take this place... Stop it Sean!. Sean quickly closed the lighter, smothering the flame just as he atempted to smother the destructive thoughts bubbling in his mind. Not here, not now, Sean took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, pocketing the still-warm lighter. He was here for a phisical, not to start an arson investigation.
