I raised my hand and she looked at me so long.

I thought she was going to simply ignore it. Finally,

"I need to go to the bathroom," I said. The three buddies smiled simultaneously as if

they were of one face.

"After all this, that is what you ask? Have you

heard nothing?" But I need to go," I cried, now

unashamed to admit it.

"Your needs are no longer what is of primary

importance. We are now going to think first of the

group's needs."

"But..."

"You're here because you are selfish, and that

will be the first demon we will destroy. I promise you

that." Dr. Foreman said. "Now then. I have one more

request of you all that you must fulfill before we can

go any further."

She turned to the buddies and each stepped

forward. M'Lady One coming to me. Mlady Two

going to Robin. and M'Lady Three to Teal. They

handed each of us a small composition notebook and a

pen.

"What is this?" Teal muttered, "Homework,

already?"

"That's a demerit." Dr. Foreman said, pointing

at her with a long, thin finger. "You didn't have

permission to speak. One more and you're in the Ice

Room."
