When Quinn had first come in and made the request, he had explained that his system had hidden the level of his actual ability. It made sense why he needed to adjust the score on the watch. This was why when Logan saw Peter and they had made the same request... it secretly made Logan happy inside.
He thought that perhaps Peter had been put under the same type of system that Quinn had. He saw Quinn as a friend now and was happy to help him, but his urge to find out about the system far surpassed that of their weak bond.
When touching Peter, he realized how he was quickly disappointed, he didn’t have the same reaction as he did when touching Quinn. Which meant right now, he couldn’t think of a reason why Peter would need to change his level? If it was something as simple as to avoid others from bullying him, it was too risky to do.
Once they found out how weak he was they would report him and the watch would be replaced. The only thing he could think of was, Quinn and Peter were hiding something from him. So he came up with a plan to implant a recording device into the watch.
At first, he was originally going to do this with Quinn, however, he quickly felt him and Quinn get close together. He enjoyed the small conversations they would have. He decided it wasn’t right to invade his privacy and believed Quinn would eventually tell him.

It was time for the two to split up, Peter would head to the elemental class with Vorden while Quinn would head to his normal Weapons class.
For the start of the lesson, they continued to go through the kicks that had been done the other day. Quinn worked on perfecting them while in his head imagining the feeling of blood swipe going through his legs.
Usually, he would just have to think about activating the skill and the system would do the rest for him. The energy inside his body moved on its own but he could still feel everything that happened were only automatic.
If he wanted to combine his blood swipe with his leg techniques he had to recreate that feeling in his legs while throwing out a kick. It was too bad his mind had been preoccupied with other things, otherwise, Quinn would have loved to test it out right now.
While practising though he noticed once again that Fex was standing by his own. Not a single person had approached him. It was to the point where Fex was just lying about and looking at the ceiling in boredom.
Now Leo didn’t do anything about students who didn’t want to learn. In his opinion, in the end, it really was up to them if they wanted to participate or not. However, if they were to disturb the class he would deal with them.
Seeing this Quinn decided to approach Fex. HE didn’t feel like Fex was a bad person but more like a child who didn’t know what was right and wrong. IF Quinn could just approach him and get close maybe he could learn more about the vampires that might be after him.
"Hey, do you want a spar?" Quinn asked.
Fex got up from the floor and looked around him, noticing that there was only one person Quinn could have been speaking to. "Who, me?" Fex asked, tilting his head a bit.
Quinn nodded. "Maybe I can use my full strength against you this time?"
"Yeah, right. But if you insist on an arse kicking then I’ll be happy to give you one." Fex replied with a smile.
