Chapter 9 - Unwanted Postage

Hailey and I must have been as louder than I realised. We barely had time to put back on our cloths and there was a knock on the door it was a gentle tap so at least it was not my master or worse April. "let me do it" it was Lilly and Akikio I answered the door Lilly and Akikio wear in there night dresses. They brushed past me and straight to Hailey.

"Nak has told us so much about you! They said in unison 

"he has told us so much about you "Lilly blurted out 

"really said Hailey smiling at me her eye sparkling with joy.

I look at them awkwardly "well yeah from time to time" I uttered shyly as I scratch the back of my head, we all talked and shared stories except Hailey as she didn't like to talk about herself much. It was getting to midnight and there was another knock at the door this time it was loud.

I opened it to see Aprils frowning face she was about to shout at us when she seen Hailey and her face went so red with anger that I thought steam was going to come out of her ears." What I she is doing here. She looks with fury at Hailey who was trying to avoid eye contact.

"well um well she's my girlfriend" I blurted out which got an aww from Lilly and Akikio 

"she's a witch or have you not noticed the black hairs.

I was confused sure there was some bits of black hair but how does that have anything to do. Before I could defend Hailey Lilly said that not all witches are evil princes perfect, she mocked April. That was follow by a yeah from Akikio which caused April to finally show her bitchy side as she told Akikio to stay out of wide eyes.

Lilly heard enough as she blasted April with water into the corridor, April retaliated with a blast of ice that missed Lilly and hit the window. Lilly lunged at April as the traded blow by blow none of their hits landing as they were evenly matched, Lilly grabbed Aprils shoulder straps and jumped of her legs sending April into the food carriage (not the one I met Hailey) lucky it was empty as they both shot ice towards each other meeting in the middle ice spraying the walls.

"the walls will collapse if they continue 2 Haley warned me as I figured out what to.

Out of nowhere Akiko threw this little bouncy freeze she shouted, and the room stood still like time froze. Akikio walked over and slapped both of them cause time to resume Akikio started scolding time something fierce I thought she was going to murder them, by the end of it April apologized even to Hailey.

The happy moment was short lived as the walls started to crick and groan. A few seconds later and the walls started tearing apart. "garb onto something" I ordered everyone as now the roof was gone the spend of the train and the violent wind was making it hard to hole on. Slowly a new roof was form as we all crashed to the floor.

A women that looked lick an older ugly version of Hailey barged passed my master her hair was almost all black with a few blonde streaks grabbed Hailey and dragged her away , but not before she had a good look at my neck around it was where I kept the shard on a piece of string.

I heard people behind us and turn to see a bunch of rich people somewhere appalled and some of the men were just staring at the girls which were now drenched. My master loudly told us to keep up I never seen him so mad as he barked for us to return to are cabins at once. my master was mad at us all through the next day and even when we got home to the house which on the outside looked like a normal house side by side with the rest of the normal houses, the girls looked even more depressed as they were use to bigger places. There spirts rose slight when we got in as it was way bigger in the inside.

Mistress willow the woman who runs the house was there with a letter and a frown was there she handed my master the letter, I've only seen her a few times with her pointy nose and a face like she hasn't smile in years I was so glad I wasn't apprentice to her.

"so, it looks like this may be the end" my master handed me the letter and then went off with a mixture of disappointment and sadness

I went to bed after I showed the girls to their rooms, it was going to be hard o sleep apart for Lilly and Akikio, but they knew better than to complain. I went straight to sleep the next day was a bit better as my master started to talk to us again and told us not to worry. after morning lessons, I went to the dining room to see if the girls were there as soon as I entered, I was immediately bear hugged.

"Max crushing" I manged to squeeze out as I was being crushed

"sorry it's just been so long my friend "I said with a big smile looking up at him was hard as he was quite tall

I had not noticed but Hailey and max's accents were quite similar. Max was originally from the islands to the west and apart of the house of fire but was nearly expelled for fighting because a group of other boys was racist, when master Keita heard about this he offered to take him under his wing.
