" Uh Kai, whose this?", Cara asked suspiciously as she looked at Myah. Myah hid behind me in fear. She was shorter than me, her head reaching my shoulder.
" Calm down Cara, She's my cousin. She's just staying in town for a while", I explained calmly.
Ari walked up to Myah with a kind smile.
" Hi I'm Ari, Nice to meet you. What's your name? ", Ari introduced herself kindly. Myah peeled out from behind me and a smiled a little. " My names Myah", Myah replied slowly.
" That's a beautiful name", Ari said smiling.
" And I'm Damien. pleased to meet ya Myah ", Damien said stepping up as well. Ari nodded and looked a Cara.
Cara sighed roughly and said " Names Cara",
" Will it kill you to be kind for once at the right time", Damien said sourly.
" What do you mean at the right time?",Cara said angrily.
" Never mind", Damien said simply, waving it away with his hand. " That's what I thought ya big simp", Cara said in a sassy tone.
" What's that supposed to mean? I am not a simp", Damien said.
There was silence when he was said that cause Damien was totally wrong. There was a girl in his class who was hot and also kind. Word around was that she was on her fifth relationship this year not counting previous years since no one knew much about her until this year.
All the guys she dated had been trying to get between her legs but that wasn't happening cause that girl was damn firm. Damien was crushing on her and as her best friend the two of them were always hanging out together. I was pretty sure she liked him plus Damien treated her like a queen. He never let anyone who wasn't an adult even touch her wrong. And even then that rule applied to respectable adults not the scumbag ones. Even I couldn't try anything on her even for fun if he even sensed it might upset her for even a second.
So when she got sad about something someone said or did, the dude was a freakin tank. No one could calm him down unless she did which was very often. He wouldn't calm down unless he made the perpetrator or perpetrators pay dearly. I think he put like what, ten or was it fifteen guys in a hospital because they teased her. Plus Damien was all for gender equality. Dude had no problem hitting girl if she tried to over step her bounds on him. The only girls I knew could talk trash to Damien and get away with it were Ari, mainly because if he tried something I'd probably beat the shit out of him, Cara because she could hold her own against him easily and of course the girl herself.
Her name was Rebecca.
Rebecca was up to Damiens shoulder in height with long red hair and green eyes. She wasn't busty or anything either. In fact she was the total opposite of Ari. Rebecca was built more like Myah, just that her goods were still slightly smaller than Myah's.
" What's with the hoodie Myah, had a bad hair day or something?", Cara pointed out suddenly. Myah gasped and held the hoodie tight over her head.
" It's nothing", She replied looking away. I had Myah where the hoodie because of her rainbow colored hair. It looked too natural to be dyed and people other than my friends would start asking questions I couldn't answer now and wouldn't do so either even if I could.
" Whatever, Class is about to start we gotta go", Cara dismissed casually. Too casually for my liking. Sure enough the bell rang class to start. I noticed one of my classmates from combat class and asked him about the inter school training session.
" Oh that, We didn't do anything of the sort yesterday. Mrs Williams said she wanted everyone to be present and since you weren't around she called it off until you came back to school which, you are now. So I guess the session will continue. Good luck", The boy said and moved off to the locker room. Myah and I went on to the arena.I was ready to go and ready to kick some ass.
Once we got there however I noticed Zack mouththing off to a bunch of students about something I couldn't quite hear and didn't care about either.
His gaze turned towards us and he grinned. But I knew that grin wasn't for me or out of happiness, No it was because of Myah. He slowly walked over to us head tilted up slightly and with a cocky air about him.
He looked straight at Myah and smiled again.
He pushed me out of the way like I was nothing and stood in front of her. "Hey beautiful, What's your name?", He asked slyly.
I moved between them, bringing me nose to nose with him. " Uh I wasn't talking you too loser ", Zack said, annoyed.
" Funny, I don't remember her wanting to talk to you either. Isn't that right", I said, looking at Myah. She looked away from Zack and nodded.
" Whoa hold on pal, Why don't you fuck off and let me do my thing", Zack said angrily. I smiled at him out of pity.
"Or else what", I dared him.
Catching a flame kick in my right arm the force blew my hair sideways. Zack bulked at that. I didn't even look at his leg or see it coming,My eyes had been locked on his from the start. I gave him a cold look and balling my fist tightly I punched him straight in the stomach. He gasped as the wind was knocked out of him. Twisting my fist I sent him flying a few meters.
Everyone gasped at that. The fact I hadn't used magic to do that was shocking enough. But the coolness of it all shocked everyone. I grinned slightly.
Zack got to his feet slowly and glared at me. His aura blazed about him, a brilliant orange.
" Hey Myah move to the crowd for this one", I said softly to her. she nodded and moved aside.
I rolled up my hoodie sleeves and took up a fighting stance. Zack ran at me fist balled. I ran at him in the same manner. Just before we could collide Mrs William appeared out of no where and caught our blows easily.
"No fighting outside the arena. If the two of you got some beef you can settle it in the arena or outside but not on the campus. We clear", She said simply, smiling
" Can we settle it in there now. I wanna teach this bastard a lesson", Zack said angrily as his aura subsided and he eased up a bit.
" Beat your opponents first and you'll get that chance", Mrs Williams replied cheerily.
She turned to me and her expression changed. The look on my face was as empty as a hole yet as cold as the Arctic.
She immediately composed herself and asked " That ok with you?",
I shrugged as the look on my face disappeared.
" Fine by me", I said as I turned around" just call an ambulance and tell me how much the hospital fee will be is all I need "
The area went silent for a while as I let my words sink in properly. Suddenly my cold blooded intent to kill was leaking out of me. I knew from previous fights it hadn't seemed like I wasn't dangerous but I was. Especially if and when I was mad. I could kill just as easily as I saved people. Truth be told it all boiled down to the situation I was in.
