A/N: song Heads will Roll
This chapter is short but necessary for the story. I highly recommend listening to the song even if you don't read the chapter...it helps to build up the suspense ;)

Coming back onto each campus you have to show ID and be signed in by the guard, usually Leonard, at the front gate. State side wasn't as safely guarded. People coming and going all day long for whatever reason: potential student tours, family or friends visiting, an event being hosted by the school, and so on.
