The Meeting

"Dark was the night, the sounds of metals clashing and heads bashing with smoke and cries of terror filled the air. In an effort to save the young prince, the King of the mighty Minotaurs, Theæsion, stood his grounds against his pursuers.

They came in hundreds, slaughtered his men, wife and daughters. After long battling, they were outnumbered. His only option was to flee with a number of civilians. they were cornered on the edge of a high cliff. The king handed over his child to his most trusted servant, angæxon, in order for them to escape. He battled his pursuers, to death, his last words filled the air, "In the name of poisaiden , and the might of our strength, we never back down not until our dying end".

Angæxon and many of the civilians managed to escape. The young prince who went by the name of theæsona, Theæsona, Theæsona"

"Tiona , TIONA!"

a voice shouts,

"Wake up and get ready for school"

a male voice shouts across the room. Stretching and yawning away the heavy burden of sleep, he now realizes his brother calling to him across the room, scrambling to get his clothes on.

"Hey, do you happen to see where I placed my vans when I came in last night"

his brother Angelo asked raking the room for his fancy shoes.

"look under your pillow, maybe you'd know if you weren't busy throwing smelly socks at me"

picking up a pile of death-stench off his bed, pinching his nose in hope of repelling the horror.

"Thanks bro, don't know what I would do without you"

with a guilty smirk on his face.

"Now hurry and get ready for school".

In a flash, they were changed, they ate breakfast that Marva their mom prepared and waved bye to Angus their father. They were new residents to the neighbourhood of Brittendale Ave as they arrived the previous morning to stay in their rent house. They rode their bikes to school, despite being new to the Area they did their tour by taking a late-night jogging.

The Guanalov high school was massive compared to their previous school. It was advertised with banners and a large parking lot. Already the school was filled with squirming children and uniform groups of all kind. They park their bikes in the parking area. Already some girls passing by couldn't resist Angelo's charm and good looks, staring and giggling at the scene he's making. Almost everyone eyes were staring at them. Before they could think of why The bell rang signalling time for classes. They had to report to the principal for a short notice.

It is 20 seconds until recess. The math teacher is on the board revising a question everyone failed on their last semester's exam. Then a knock on the door, and in came a strange boy. The teacher then turned to the class and said,

"Tiona Minorge  is  a new student, please let him feel welcome"

All eyes were on him as he looks like one of those gigantic bodybuilders, Massive biceps and thoracic area like the living superman himself. He has short black hair, olive skin colour, a straight face and red eyes strange among the kids. Already he's the main topic for the gossipers.

The recess bell went off. It seems he couldn't get along well in the school corridors as all they do is gossip about his looks.

He met with his brother and exchange a few words and left.

Collecting a lunch of a cheese sandwich, a box of milk and an apple he looked for an area to sit. looking around all the tables they were filled except for one guy who seemed mysteriously antisocial eating by himself. Walking over to sit by his table he was stopped by someone.

"Dude seriously, I wouldn't advise you to sit over there," the strange boy said holding his shoulders.

turning around trying to figure out who was talking to him, the boy looking surprised and said, "oh, where are my manners, I'm Tommy Cauldron my friends call me Tom, come to sit over our table"

Tom was a bit shorter than him who had blonde spiked hair a cheerful face and wore a matching jacket that had a capital B and a bullhead for its symbol along with the other kids around his table.

"Hey guys, this is Tiona the new guy" Tommy introduces. the boys waved introducing themselves, he picked up a few of their names, Jake, Buck, Muscles and some others. Beside them were girls also in matching uniforms with palm-palms, obviously, cheerleaders who also introduce themselves, Jessica was the captain who further went to tell she's Tommy's girlfriend who is also the captain of his team.

After some more talk they finally wonder how he hasn't said anything since he joins them, feeling a bit awkward he spoke, " Well, I don't really talk much" they were subjected to silence probably wondering about the deep accented bass of his speech.

"How are you able to talk so... so, Bass?" Jessica pointed out. "I guess it runs in the family"  he replied. The other guys despite surprised of my speech begged me to join their football team.

"I don't think the coach wouldn't want you to not be on the team, after all, today's try-outs you should come" Tommy suggested. "And do you work out, cause look at those buffs" Jessica adds acting as if she's on fire making the whole gang burst out in laughter.

I finally replied with a smile " yeah I get that a lot, and yes I do some amount of workout but not enough to earn these I guess it runs in my family as well", "and the eyes" Krystal pointed out, one of the cheerleaders, "Yeah that too" they all laughed.

"Well for most of you I've never seen red iris individuals walking around only grey, blue, black but read that's really creepy," Jessica said giving me a creepy smile. "Yeah I know, I don't know much about my family lineage, literally everything I get from my family" the tension in the group grew, an effort to change the subject he finally asked about the mysterious guy sitting by himself.

"Well, he's one of those freaks who seem to be in some paranoid world like he's in some cult or something, really creepy" Tommy answers with an awkward look on his face " that's why I stopped you from going over there before, god knows what he would have done to you". Taking a quick look over the guy he seems to notice his glare at him and he stopped and focused on the group in front of him. Not that he has anything against antisocial creeps but he has this mysterious feeling that they have something in common, it seems crazy but it is.

The recess bell went and everyone was scrambling to go to classes Tommy begged him to show up at the tryouts and he accepted. The mysterious guy walked past him, his head is covered in a hoody and he could have sworn his eyes glowed red walking pass him, and then he knew, something was common.
