It's been a week since Elder Chung's visit and everything has gone normal and the students are happy to train freely as they like under the supervision of Miss Wade.... Delia was walking down the hall with her usual expression and many students path ways for her to pass through as she walked towards the cafeteria. She went to the table and stood in front of the attendant there.
"Lemme guess...." The attendant smiled. "The usual?"
Delia nodded.
"Coming right up." The attendant left.
A nice looking guy with green spiky hair and opened uniform walked up to her with a big smile and hands stuck inside his pocket. He stood at her left side and pretend to look at the menu for the first time in decades all the while humming, he turned and looked at her at the face.
"Hello pretty..." He grinned.
Delia turned to look at the boy.... With his dressing code, Delia knew he was a senior in the school.
"My name is Shao.... Shao yaminaka." He said.
Silence
"You know I heard there are beautiful juniors from my peers and thought it was a lie... But." He rest his back to the table. "Guess it's true what they say."
Delia just kept looking at the menu.
"You know.... If you need anything." He looked at her face. "Come to me.... Don't hesitate."
"Like I ever would." Delia thought.
The boy stretched his hands to touch her hair and Delia looked at his hands from the corner of her eyes and looked at the menu again with her expression still blank that one would not know what she had in mind... As his went close to the hair.... It was gripped... By another person.
"I wouldn't do that if I were you." The voice said.
Delia sighed and closed her eyes, for she has heard that voice almost everyday..... Neil's....
"She doesn't like to be touched." Neil finished.
"Get your hands off me." Shao groaned.
Neil let's his hand go and he brushed his sleeve as if Neil's hands had placed dirt on it, Neil did nothing but smiled.
"You dare touch me you underling...." Shao ranted.
"Calm down.... We have no issue here." Neil gestured for him to calm down.
"It seems you young stud don't know their place." He ranted again. "Who are you junior?"
Neil just stared at him for a while then looked at Delia as she remained stationed at her position... Neil turned again and looked at Shao.... A smile crept up his face.
"You wanted to hurt him..." Neil telepaths to Delia. "Weren't you?".
"I thought I told you not to read my mind ever again." Delia thought. "It seems you want me to freeze up that brain of yours."
"Now that's mean of you..." Neil telepaths. "At least you should be thanking me."
"For what?" She thought.
"For preventing you from killing someone on the first term from our long term monitoring and exhausting freedom." Neil looked at her again.
"Like I Care?" She replies.
"Were you even listening to me." Shao yelled.
"Ummmm..... Sorry..." Neil looked at him confused. "What were you saying?"
Shao groaned and began to rain down curse on Neil who just watched him bellow like a angry howling wolf... The attendant returned with a package and handed it to Delia who took it and placed some currency in the table and turned to leave... Shao obstructed her with his body and smiled again.
"Sorry about that my dear." Shao smiles. "You know I didn't quite catch a name."
"When did that moron leave this spot?" Neil thought as he looked at him with frustration
Delia lifted her head and looked squarely at Shao who was still grinning like a pervert, Neil placed his hand on his forehead in frustration. He slowly walked towards Delia and grabbed her by the arm and shoved Shao off the way as they walked past the cafeteria door.
"Hey moron.... You've had a death wish." Shao yelled. "Am gonna make you pay."
Neil and Delia walked onward without looking back while Shao kept cursing, when he was about to go back to his chair..... He discovered he couldn't move, he looked down to see the sole of his shoes are crystalized to the ground.
"Damn you underling." He yelled in fury.
Everyone in the cafeteria began to laugh.

Sandy and Reece strolled the lobby that led to class in heavy discussion on a comic that was recently published, with Sandy demonstrating how it should have gone.. He bumped into someone.
"Hey watch it." The person yelled.
Sandy just kept walking and talking to Reece whom on the other pleaded with a gesture
"It seems you mum forgot to teach you some manners." The boy yelled. "Because it looks like you needs it."
Sandy suddenly stopped and sighed heavily, shakily..... Angrily he turned and looked at the student.
"What did you just say?" His voice quavering in anger.
"I said your mum forgot to teach you some manners." The student repeated. "And that definitely mean one thing.... She's a bad woman."
Without thinking twice of what the the outcome would be, Sandy dashed at the kid very fast that everyone couldn't see him moving but only felt the breeze that zapped past as he punched the student squarely on the face sending the kid into the air... Everyone looked with surprise on their faces, Reece walked towards Sandy and held his shoulder while Sandy on the other hand has gone blood red in rage and was panting heavily.
The boy stood up and noticed a sharp pain on his check and something hot fell from his check, he placed his hands on his cheek and looked at it...
"My blood.... You made me bleed?" The boy asked. "No one ever does that and get away with it."
The boy spreads his arm as two tsunamis appeared in both of them as it spined heavily that the breeze in the atmosphere became intense.
"I see...." Reece sighed. "You draw the wind in the atmosphere and turn it into that... Seen that trick before."
"Am going to make you beg..." The boy yelled. "Am going to put you in your place."
"Well... I would like to see you try." Sandy groaned. "You spoilt brat."
Sandy slot in a card that had lightning into his glove and the other hand was an image with the eyes of Horus... His lightning surrounded him that made everyone thought he was a lightning god.... They stared at each other for a long while before dashing towards each other yelling... They were about to make impact when their powers suddenly went off.
"Stand down." A voice barked
"Huh." They both said.
"Enough you two..." The voice barked again.
Everyone turned around to meet Miss Wade standing behind them with her arms crossed over her chest and anger on her face.
"Sandy... Reece... The classroom....." She ordered them. "Now..."
Both of them exit with look of surprise on Sandy's face how fast his reaction was to her command. She looked at the rest students who had gathered and ordered them to leave at once, which they all did as if they were puppets.

"You can let go now." Delia whispered
"Of course." Neil let her go. "But am curious."
She looked at Neil as he turns to look at her.
"Why did you allow me to hold your hands?" Neil asked.
Silence.... Neil looked into her eyes as she stared emotionlessly at him like he wasn't even there at all, then she looked away.
Neil looked away and turned to continue his journey to an unknown destination...
"You know." Neil halts. "You don't have to try to be tough sometimes.... Learn to accept help from others...."
Silence... And there was tension in the air, Neil sighed heavily.
"Because that is what makes team work a team work." Neil leaves.
Neil was at the end of the corridor when Rory came out of the other side of the corridor.... Yelling..
"Neil.... Neil....." Rory yelled.
Neil halts and turned around to see Rory panting so he ran back to meet him... Delia decided to take her own leave.
"It's best you stay and listen to what he has to say." Neil said.
"It doesn't concern me." She replied and continued moving.
"Am afraid it... concerns you too Delia.." Rory gasped. "Lyn has called for an emergency meeting at the class."
"An emergency meeting..?" Neil looked surprised. "But why?"
Delia stopped walking and stood firm in the spot.
"She said it's urgent and everyone has to be there." Rory finished. "So I had to find you."
"Using you search ability ehn..." Neil pats Rory on the back. "No wonder you've run out of breath."
Neil looked at Delia as she stood firm and never moved a muscle, Neil turned and began to head to class with Rory closely behind him as they walked briskly... Delia stood for a while before she turned and head to class too.

Everyone has gathered in class and wondering what has happened that made the class rep summon everyone to class, as they sat at their various chairs.. Neil began to scan the class and saw that two people were missing in the class. Neil turned to see Sandy not too far from him and he looked better than before.
"For how long have you known?" Sandy murmured.
"What is that?" Neil asked pretending not to know what he's talking about.
"About me being the last of my kin." Sandy thought.
silence
"Ever since we met bro." Neil answered. "But I was waiting for you to tell me yourself."
"I wasn't ready." Sandy bangs his table. "Is that why you went through my head."
Silence
"Do you know why I made you my brother?" Neil asked
"Huh..." Was the reply.
"It was because I too know what you're passing through cause I've been there too." Neil lowered his head.
"You mean..." Sandy looked at Neil.
"Yes... And the ones you saw are the ones that is left." Neil answered.
Just then Lyn walked into the class with a sad face that made everyone went silent instantly. They were waiting to hear want she has to say for calling an emergency meeting for it was one of the school rules never to disobey the emergency call of anyone in the class especially those with high ranks.
"Something has come up guys.... Something no one knows about." Lyn began.
Silence.
"Chiyo has been kidnapped." She finished
