Chapter 3 - Empires Guild

Ash was staring at her not removing his eyes anywhere, he lost his control earlier.

"She must be startled." He thought.

Demo arrived and called him. "I heard the news."

"I lost my control earlier, but the thing is I'm confused how everything was back to normal." Ash replied looking puzzled.

"What do you mean?" Demo added.

"The chandeliers and stuffs were all broken in one snap it was all fixed." Ash replied and thought hard.

"You mean to say she also has psychokinesis ability like yours?" Demo stared at him and moved his eyes at Cal.

"It seems like a Reverse ability." Ash replied.

A sudden cough was heard at their back it was Professor Shoes.

"Good day, Professor Shoes." Demo said politely.

"Professor Shoes asked Demo to bring the potions to Professor Zero.

"I heard what happen, I'm pretty sure the other professors are already talking about it." He said.

Ash sighed, Professor Shoes was the only person he truly trusted in Technoversity. Ever since his parents died professor shoes was entrusted to take care of them.

"I was thinking if I made the right decision." Ash said holding Cal's hand.

"You must worry first for your punishment." Professor Shoes smiled.

"Yeah the punishment it is." Ash laughs a bit remembering what trouble he has done.

"Oh dear I got to go to Professor Lithia she was waiting for me." The old man waves goodbye and rushed outside.

Just in time Demo arrived and they continued their conversation without knowing Yannie was around accidentally awake from his deep sleep in the left side balcony.

"Reverse Ability? Awesome I'll ask the others about the info so I could have a new scoop this is the best day ever!" She thought happily without realizing the other man beside her.

"Can you please shut up?" Kael exclaimed.

Ash notice someone was noisy upstairs and immediately followed the quarreling voices.

"You-you pervert! Why are you beside me?!" Yannie hits Kael making him more irritated.

Kael grabs her wrist and rolled over her. "One more hit I'll kiss you."

"Ash who is it?" Demo asked running towards them.

His eyes widened looking at them. "Flirting is not allowed."

Yannie immediately pushed Kael. "You got it all wrong."

Yannie started liking Demo ever since she was 10 years old. He saved her from drowning in the water that almost takes her life.

Its a shame to see her in a kind of situation to him. She felt mad with Kael ruining her impression in front of him.

"Right nothing it is." Kael replied blankly like nothing happened.

A slap was hit Kael's face real hard it was Yannie looking at him with pain in the eyes, she immediately runs away from them without looking back.

"You are still a jerk aren't you?" Demo shook his head and offers his hand at Kael.

Ash nods his head agreeing with Demo's reaction which makes Kael rolled his eyes.

"You've been called by Amelia." Kael informed.

"Keep an eye on her." Ash glares at them.

"This guy never changed at all still arrogant as always and demanding." Kael shouted.

"I can hear you." Ash grinned and walked on his way to the Headmistress office, before he opened the door he heard Amelia talking with someone.

"Lord Maven do you think it would be disastrous to have a student with an unknown ability?" Amelia asked.

"Take it easy Amelia; we are still not sure if she is the person written in the prophecy." The unknown person replied.

"Ash is already a threat in the Clan how much more is Vienne?" Professor Zero replied.

"We do understand the hesitation here but Cal is still 18 we need to wait for her to turn 19 if which side does she belongs." Professor Pein explains.

"We even don't have any idea if she is one of the Seers why wait for her 19th birthday?" Alice blurted suddenly which makes everyone quite.

"Seers are long gone Alice don't ever mention that with anyone else." Professor Wood glared at Alice.

"What? It's just a guess." Professor Alice rolled her eyes.

Ash immediately wore his headsets with a strong volume and knocks the door.

The people immediately vanished away and Amelia composed herself and replied. "Come in."

Ash got in and replied. "Kael told me you wanted to have a conversation with me."

Amelia noticed Ash removed his headset and faced her, so she didn't doubt he might hear them.

"Yes, its about the incoming Rare Games." She drank her wine in the table while looking at him.

"You mean that killing game." Ash glared at her.

Her glass suddenly broke into tiny pieces hurting her fingers.

"Ash Von, no matter what you do the game will go on besides its tradition." Amelia's voice was fierce.

Ash didn't speak and left the office, he need to be cautious of his words. He decided to get back in the Healer's den and checked Cal.

"She's awake, we'll be going back to class Professor Lithia might punish us again with a bungee! What a nightmare." Kael said and left with Demo.

Cal was awakened by two people talking beside her, they somehow explain the situation and left to see Ash arrived.

She is currently looking at them and notice they left leaving Ash in the door. He walks towards her with a suffocating aura.

"Why didn't you wear the headdress?" He asked.

"I might lose it." She said without looking at Ash.

Ash sighed and let out a ring in his pocket; he grabs her hand and put the ring on her finger. Cal raised her head at him with confusion and was about to speak but he cut her off.

"It's a tracking device in case you are in trouble." He said.

"Why are you doing this?" Cal was confused with his actions and everything. Why is he protecting her? She's not that important at all.

"All I know is the connection between us." Ash stared at her with his blue eyes.

Cal sighed. "About earlier I have no idea what happened."

"I'm sorry about earlier." Ash whispered in her ear which makes her trembled.

"Ash Von Alexander Mauer!" She exclaimed hitting him in the shoulder.

"Ouch! What a sadist." He said and laughed.

Cal rolled her eyes and followed him outside, she was still upset with this guy but it didn't last long which makes her felt she's too comfortable with him.

Her head was full of thoughts that she bumped into Ash's back.

"Watch out." He said while opening the door.

She rubbed her forehead and followed him inside.

The room was bigger than she imagined, it was not just an ordinary classroom. Chairs were different it was an office-like-chair the tables are silver with classy design. The table has a nerve gear prepared for every student.

The Empire's guild room is indeed marvelous and stunning. Some photos can be seen from the walls were taken by the old members from generation to next.

The Empires only have 9 members they are not just ordinary members. Empires are known to be leaders of the group which also include great power.

Their badge is different from the other clans it is a golden book with carved Empire word. A lot of students below the level were too scared to mess with the members.

Ash offered her a seat beside him, she suddenly notice Warren sleeping near the window.

"There you are I've been looking for you everywhere, I heard what happened how are you?" Mori asked.

"Yeah I'm fine now I just got out from the healers den." Cal replied.

Mori sighed in relief and seated next to her.

Some students started to get inside the guild room. A familiar face was seen by Cal it was Irene looking at her differently.

Professor Majid arrived just in time the students are also already settled in their seats.

"Welcome Empires! The beginning of a great adventure ahead I'll bring you to a parallel universe where you can be an adventurer. Before we start I need to know who are the new Empires let's start with you Mr." Pointing at the first person in the row.

He stood up and spoke. "Orion Zohar at your service.

Next was Ash's friend which is Kael who is busy on sketching.

A cough was heard from Mr. Majid which made him look around to see that everyone was staring at him.

Ash shook his head and pointed Mr. Majid in the front.

"Oh, Professor Boe you are here sorry for the inconvenience. I'm Kael Brown your artist in the group." He bowed and sit back to continue his work.

Kael has a brownish hair it was cut cleanly which made him look masculine and sexy. His eye color is chuck hazel perfectly fit for his aura.

A guy wearing a pink uniform suddenly arrived with a graceful entrance.

"My love was like blind too dark to be seen Cade Treves."

The way he spoke was filled with sadness; his posture seems drained by the heartbreak.

He gazed at everyone and continued to walk on the way to his seat feeling down and weak.

Cal takes out here chocolate cookie pouch and pushed it on Mori's seatmate. Cade notice the pouch and opened it, a gleaming smile was seen in his face.

He mouthed a sincere thank you to Cal as he ate the cookies. Mori offered her orange juice to Cade and spoke. "You might choke on too much cookies."

Cade felt comfortable with the two people near him.

The introduction continued with the man who has a strong aura and spoke. "Gun Dwaine is my name."

Irene rolled her eyes and stood up. "Irene Forest head of the wolf pack."

Professor Majid notice the other student was sleeping so he clicks his remote and a loud bang was heard near Warren.

"Class time your turn." Professor Majid said.

"Warren Choi." He shortly replied in a lame voice.

"Ash Von Alexander Mauer." He smiled and seat back.

"Cal Lorraine Vienne." Cal spoke with a cold voice.

"Cal Lorraine Vienne." Cal spoke with a cold voice.

"Ohayou! I'm Mori Tashima nice to meet you all."

"Thank you everyone! Let's continue as you can see there are nerve gears in your table. Wear them and lean back, close your eyes and speak your name followed by the word Online. Let's now begin our class empires are you ready?"

"Ready." Everyone agreed and followed the instruction.

Cal closed her eyes and spoke gently.

"Cal Lorraine Vienne is now Online."

As she opened her eyes she was standing in a blue crystal room. She notice a blue virtual box and touched it, the box glowed and showed some weapons. The one got her attention was the moon dagger, she chose the dagger and a group of outfits was shown.

She decided to wear the blue hooded elf style outfit with a combat boots. The room glass showed a 10 seconds countdown.

Cal was teleported to a magical place; waterfalls were seen in the left side. The water were flowing in the stepping stones, she notice a small flying creatures dancing joyfully.

"Water sprites." She smiled and look at the other one flew towards her.

She raised her hand and the water fairy landed in her hands. Cal decided to look around and followed the stepping stones.

She also took some water just incase she got thirsty. The road leads her in the forest an old man was sitting beside the tree.

"Do you have some water?" The old man asked.

Cal stared at him and noticed that she can't read his mind.

"I do have some sir, here you can have it." She replied.

The old man drank the water and suddenly turned into a key.

Cal gasped and picked up the key. "How did that happen?"

She continued to walk and stopped, there are two different roads ahead.

The right side has a blue path while the left side has a yellow path. She decided to follow the blue path and walk onwards.

Warren was just after her, he is currently lost and just got away from the centipedes. He regretted the weapon he chose, it actually teleported him in a monsters cabin.

He is currently stuck on choosing a path it seems to him that he will be trouble again.

"The right path will be the right road?" He thought.

He decided yo walk in the blue path, as he goes farther the light was between the darkness.

"Are you kidding me?" He slapped his head in frustration.

Good thing he's outfit has a lamp in the belt, it is the only luck he ever had since he got in the virtual world.

Warren takes out his kukris and alerted himself from the dark woods.

A giggling sound was heard he immediately turned around and found out it was Cal.

He felt glad to see her but something was different in her eyes.

She spoke. "I almost thought I am the only one here good thing I found you."

Warren acted because the woman in front of her is still suspicious. "Yeah, me too I got lost and chose this path."

"Can I come with you?" She asked.

"Sure." He offers his hand to her as soon as the woman accepted his hand.

Warren moved and hit her with his kukris, the woman cried in pain and slowly turned into ashes.

His suspicion was right it was another creature in the virtual world. He proceeds to look around and notice a blue light appeared in different direction.

"Another one?" He sighed in exhaustion.

The blue lights were leading a path when he got near the light it was a sleeping small Neraides.

He remembered the book he read in Professor Wood's Library. Sleeping fairies will glow to lead something good or to help someone who's in need.

Warren immediately followed the light and heard a voice.

"Anyone out there? Please help me!" She cried.

Warren roamed around and followed her voice.

"Stop right there!" Cal exclaimed.

Warren paused and found out it was a large quicksand. He removed his bag and check if there is any rope but found none.

"There is a large vine in your left side use it." Cal exclaimed.

He grab the vine and knot the end of it with a stick so that she could grab it.

"Catch! I'll pull you hold tight!" He shouted.

Cal grabs the vine and wrapped it in her waist she signaled him to pull.

Warren shifted into his wolf form and bites the vine to pull her.

Cal was finally out of danger she found out it was Warren that helped her which made her confuse.

She was about to speak but a large roar was heard in the other side.

"We need to move that's a giant beast it would be too dangerous if we meet him." Warren spoke and signals Cal to follow him.

Cal stared at the man leading the way she didn't expect that he would help her in the quicksand earlier.

They stopped near a river the place was somehow bright because of the fireflies around it there is also a giant tree and has a lot of fruit.

"Let's stay here for the night." He said and left to gather some woods.

Cal nodded she decided to take a bath in the river while Warren was away.

She felt refreshed with the cool water in her skin, she soak herself for a while and notice a glowing lights in the water. It was a glowing Fisheria Cal was amused seeing it swam and splashing around.

Warren got enough woods and walk back but he glance a figure in the water.

"I'm a guy for pete's sake." He turned around and walk in the other way.

Cal looked for her bag and found spare clothes, she immediately change and washed the other one.

Just in time Warren arrived holding some fruits and branches. He snapped his finger and a fire were made.
