"Calm down, Hakai!"
His father yells at him, while Hakai destroys the surrounding land with his void. He doesn't respond to his father's calls.
Dust and debris is flying everywhere. Houses are getting destroyed, and the ocean waters are quickly covering the land.
"Why?" Hakai's mother cries out. "He would never… do such a thing."
His mother, father, sister and little brother are all frightened.
"I- I can't get him to calm down. Only a miracle could save us at this point."
~~~~~~
It's 6 a.m. and the alarm clock goes off. Hakai stops it and gets out of bed. He looks at a calendar on his phone, while he puts his uniform on.
"Oh, the comet rain is tomorrow. Hmm… 4:32 a.m." He goes to his alarm clock and sets it to 4:15 a.m., and proceeds into the bathroom. He brushes his teeth and combs his long, silver hair.
"Another fun day… of not being able to use my powers freely."
He walks out of his room and goes to the communal area, for breakfast.
"Remember everyone, eat and drink according to your diet plan!"
"I know I know, you tell us this every single day, Admiral Bunretsu."
"Yes, but it is something that you kids have to be reminded of every day, because some of you didn't follow it strictly enough last year." Admiral Bunretsu says, while letting her eyes glide over to another girl. The girl rolls her eyes and walks to her table.
Hakai grabs a croissant, a bowl of oatmeal and a glass of orange juice, and goes to his table.
"Did you see that there will be a comet rain tomorrow?" Kenkou Kinsetsu asks him.
"Yeah I already set my alarm to 4:15."
"Do you mind if I join you?"
"If it's not too early for you, then I don't see the problem."
"Okay, then we got a date! Or something…"
"Hmm?" Hakai looks confused.
"Haha I'm joking of course."
"Ah, right. Sorry my mind just drifted off a bit."
Toumei Kabe and Yosoku Shiryoku join them at their table.
"You guys always seem to get here earlier, no matter how fast I get up." Yosoku tells them.
"At least we have a nice table, some of the other group aren't as lucky." Toumei says, as he looks over to a table with three tough looking guys, and a very shy girl. "Poor Sakushi, if it was allowed I'd switch places with her."
"Really? Those three are known for being mean you know?" Kenkou jumps in. "I wouldn't want to spend a minute with them. Besides, they probably wouldn't do anything to her, since she's friends with Jiko, and you know you don't want to get her mad."
"Yeah Jiko can really blow up sometimes" Yosoku lays emphasis on the 'blow up' part.
Kenkou giggles.
"Really funny man, excellent joke." The sarcasm in Toumei's voice is next level.
Yosoku seems a bit annoyed. "Well I thought it was funny."
At 7 a.m. everyone groups together in two groups of eight, plus one Admiral.
"Okay everyone the first thing today is going to be a recap of all the history lessons." Says Admiral Bunretsu to her group. Hakai, Kenkou, Yosoku and Toumei are all in this group, together with four others. The other group is led by Admiral Kyoritsu, the three guys and Sakushi are with him.
"I'm not a big fan of history." Kenkou whispers too Hakai. "It makes me remember some stuff from the past."
"Maybe tell the Admiral about it, it shouldn't be that big of a deal if you miss a few things."
"They already know about it, but I'll remind her anyway."
In the classroom everyone sits down, in two rows of four. Admiral Bunretsu starts speaking.
"Okay everyone, I think you all could use a refresher. Time to recap everything that happened. Beginning at the reason, and start of the war, between The Nation of Britain, and the liberation group Dokuri."
