"Huff…huff…"
Wiping the perspiration from my face, I turned to look at the huge lake. The creature was still remaining hidden under the surface for now and other than me and Rossetti, no one else seemed to have noticed it. The middle school students were too busily running, and I accompanied both them and the trainers.
Rossetti and the teachers, on the other hand declined the opportunity to join in. I wasn't one to judge, so I just left them to watch by the side while I followed the kids on the track. Of course, I wasn't just there to train. My job was to provide security, after all, and I ensured that I scanned the surroundings for any sign of danger while simultaneously running alongside the middle school students.
Since it was my duty to protect them, I figured that the best way to do that was to stick close to the kids. Obviously there was no way for me to protect every single one of them, so I lingered near those who really mattered.
