Daffyd finally caught his breath and got a good look at his rescuers. The two boys were identical twins with the exception that one had a small silver piercing. They both had blonde hair and crystal blue eyes & judging by their build, they were most definitely on the wrestling team. The slender girl with the black hair was standing with her hand on her hip. She had a dozen gold bracelets on her wrists & dark skin showed her African heritage.

She narrowed her eyes, “Daffyd? Right? We have Foreign Cultures class together.”

Daffyd smiled sheepishly, “Yes. I don’t know any of your names though. You’re all Level 5 so can’t say I know many of your friends either.”

The girl glanced at his uniform with the wide forest green stripe that went from his right shoulder to the bottom of his shirt. She looked at her own stripe. It was navy blue.

Instead of commenting on it, she stuck out her hand, “I’m Abidemi. These are my friends, Seth & the one with the piercing is Daniel.”

Daffyd was surprised with her strong grip.
