We were just fourteen-years-old boys who were going to the blue-painted high school of the Kawaakari city.
It was a warm autumn day. Bomyu was running on a line towards a ball. He was wearing field shoes, a white t-shirt and white shorts which had blue stripes on their sides. I was running beside him in an entirely green football field at our school. Bomyu inhaled deeply and smiled slightly, as he kicked the ball. The ball flew in the air reaching long distances.
"Nice kick!" I commented and started to chase him towards the other half of the field.
"Thanks Karu." Bomyu beamed while he was breathing deeply. He played for hours, so he was physically exhausted.
"Look, isn't it Paikek?" Bomyu pointed at the black-haired Eurasian boy Paikek who was drawing a line to the ground by blue and yellow chalks.
It seemed like he made a circle around the school with the lines he drew with the blue and yellow coloured chalks.
"Paikek, will you go to the next class?" I asked Paikek, after Bomyu and I jogged next to him.
"Right! Sure I will." Paikek concurred immediately.
"Come on what're we waiting for!!!" Bomyu put his right around my shoulders as we entered the school building.
"I always struggle with opening these doors." Paikek sighed when he couldn't open the yellow gates of the school.
"It's okay, we're here to help." Bomyu pushed the doors supporting Paikek to open the entrance.
Once we entered the school building, we saw Seanyung standing in the middle of the corridor where lots of pupils were in a rush everywhere. He looked like there were millions of things going over his mind.
"Seanyung, have you seen Yonsan [연산]?" Paikek wondered.
"Oh. He is probably in class. You know he is always early." Seanyung responded as he started heading to the classroom with us.
We reached the front door of the classroom, which had a blurry glass that we couldn't see inside.
"You guys go in. I will be right back." Bomyu rushed to the opposite side of the corridor.
"Alright, see you later." Seanyung waved at him.
Subsequently, I pulled the door handle to open it, and we stepped inside the classroom where Yonsan was sitting on a desk. He had blue hair and darker pale skin, and he was the tallest of us.
"Hey, Karu! Paipai! Yung! You should see this." the blue-haired boy Yonsan entreated while he put a green coloured old book onto the table.
"Wow! It looks fascinating!" Paikek's eyes almost glimmered as he got amazed by the star figure on the book's cover.
"You haven't seen the real trick yet!" Yonsan opened the book, and there was a window shaped slit inside the book.
"This doesn't seem usual." I commented in astonishment.
"Wow!" Paikek's jaw dropped.
Yonsan closed his eyes and put his hand on the book, while Seanyung, Paikek and I watched, wondering what he was doing.
A small cloud of smoke started to arise from the book. The smoke got denser and denser as Yonsan kept focusing.
"Are you sure it's working?" I got worried.
Instantly, the book started burning with bright red flames. Paikek concernedly looked at me expecting me to do something, while Seanyung got closer to see why it was burning.
