I was getting ready for my new job with the monster academy, I was going to be a teacher for them and I was allowed to Bring my Brother and all the pixies. I had a car waiting for us and I was locking up my home for the last time for a while. A half a million-dollar house to be abandoned for a year or so, who's to know what I might get into there?
About a couple of hours later around six hours later, I was standing right in front of a huge portal. My brother was on my right and all the pixies were all around us going in with us. When we came to the other side of the portal we saw a bunch of races together greeting us. I looked down at my phone and saw the directions to my new home for the semester. We headed to the place smiling and greeting others as we walked by them.
It was about a ten-minute walk from the portal till we reached the apartment I was given. I opened the front door and on the table near the living room was a message. It was from Andreea, she had informed me that she was on campus and Bradley was to report to her office. She gave us the directions to where she was and he headed there right away. I stayed back and opened the second message and I was given a uniform for my first day.
It was a nice suit like for a businessman or some fancy-dressed person, the clothes were in my favorite colors, red and black. I put them on and I headed to see where I'd be teaching for the next couple of semesters. I walked across the campus and watched everyone closely, they were whispering about me a bit too loud. "Is that the new English teacher? I hear and smell that he's very much a human." One girl said to her friend not noticing that she was almost yelling, I smiled and winked at her and continued my journey to the office.
When I got to my office door I heard something behind me, I turned and saw it was Lilith and Andreea talking to Bradley about something. They noticed me and walked over, "Brother I have been asked to join the Academy as a student by the headmistress here." Bradley said looking right at Andreea, she smiled and let Lilith and Bradley get to class. "Hope you're ok with that, oh I also took in Lilith so she can find her place after that chaos." I opened the door and said, "He's his own person, he can make his own decisions without me being there for him. Plus I was hoping he was going to find something to do." Andreea stood back a bit and was upset with how my tone was, It was very sarcastic and snotty.
I wasn't trying to be rude but I would have loved to be involved with the request, what if something he said would have hurt or angered Andreea the wrong way. I walked around the classroom that was attached to the office and saw it was much like a college classroom. Andreea walked into the room and she saw me looking around. "I'm sorry about how I said that back there, I was just annoyed I wasn't asked to. He's all I got besides the Pixies, I just want to make sure he's safe. Not that he's in danger here, he just might upset someone if they rub him the wrong way."
She put her hand on my right shoulder and told me that she had placed all the safety procedures for him. " No one will hurt him under my watch, plus he will have Lilith around him a bit." I talked with her about my class stuff for an hour till I got my first class of the day. My job was to show the students how an Author thinks and how to write like a professional. My class was Authors 101, how to write art, this was legitly what the class description was.
My first class was filled with Demon class Non-humans and Animal-based Non-humans. They looked at me and saw who I really was, Some of the kids had my books in their hands. "I'm guessing you know who I am?" I said to a young Succubus, she was staring right at me and looked crazed. "My name I Mr. Willhelm and I'm a professional Author and Traveler of the world, I've been to places no human had been. Do any of you have questions for me or anything to tell me before we start this class?"
Everyone looked at each other and one guy from the back said, " I hear you're like a freak even from a monster's perspective. Do you have like power or something no one knows about?" I looked at him and then I said, "I can't be hurt by getting cut or stabbed, I have a bit of strength not normal, so you could say I have powers." Everyone wasn't shocked at all and they began to ask questions about my books.
I answered each one and everyone was excited to hear how much I've seen for a human. They were even more surprised I took my little brother with me on all my journeys around the world. "He didn't go with me on one, but that story is for another day. Let's start today's lesson, I want you all to write about your life till now." Everyone thought this assignment was hard for their first day, I smiled and showed them the first book I Wrote.
"This is my journal, you may have seen it in another form as my latest book. Your journey starts with this, write about what you want it's your story, not mine." Everyone looked at me like I was crazy and then I said something that seem to inspire them and scare them. "This book you're about to write is for the end of the year, write about something that piques interest in you. I wrote about my true adventures with my brother, but who knows with everyone here. Some of you may write fiction about knights and dragons, others might write about the true story of a legend. It's my job here for everyone to become what they want to be, so what is it you want to write about?"
Everyone wondered what I was going to do for the rest of the year, that's when I gave them the year plan for class. The first semester was to write fiction stories and learn how to edit them their selves. the second was to teach them how to add better and more eye-catching words in a non-fiction story about someone they know. The last two semesters were solely for writhing their first book with everything they learned. Of course, I would teach them other tricks and real English and grammar along the way once a week.
That's when the class took off and started asking everything I knew about writing, though my processes were much different than others. I gave them some tips but I wanted them to learn it for themselves. They got to work and made plans for the next few months about writing their book. I sat back in my chair and watched them for a bit. I saw it was getting close to the end of the day for my class and I wrapped up the class with a word to my students.
"It might be hard to start in the beginning, but don't quit, don't back down from a challenge. If you do you will see success at the end of the work. I believe everyone has a story to tell it just takes time to put it into words." The bell rang and everyone got up, they were all silent from what I said, I guess they must have taken my words to heart. I cleaned up my desk and I head to the door after everyone left.
When I was in the hall I saw Andreea was coming to check on me, she had a smiling face and it spoked me a bit. "Hello Jacob, I hear your class was mind-changing for your students?" She said to me and I smirked a bit, "Yeah at first I was scared of how to talk to people no younger than me, but once I started talking to them it got easier." I said to her and she kept smiling a bit, till I asked her a personal question. "Why did you and the council want me a human as a teacher? It wasn't to keep me in check with all my books and traveling is it?"
"We did for you, there are people out there that hate humans getting in the affairs of the monster world. I know you're pretty strong for a human but we didn't want to lose a good ally to our community." She paused for a moment and then she felt my hands on both of her shoulders, "SO you just wanted to make sure I was safe." I smiled a bit, "thank you for telling me the truth my sweet Andreea, I love the friendship you've shared with me and my brother."
Andreea blushed a bit then we saw some students were watching us after a bit. I blushed a bit and so we said goodbye and I went home for the day. I was on the path to the apartments when I saw Queen Viza flying right to me. She looked upset about something then she said, "Bradley is being bullied." My hair stood up on my neck and I rushed to Bradley, He was in the center of the campus by the huge statue of all the council members. Bradley was getting messed with by this huge ogre-like guy, he was bulling my brother about him being human.
Everyone saw my face when I came to the crowd and back away from me to give me a straight shot at the ogre. Andreea heard around the same time about the fight and ran to see what was going to happen. Bradley saw me in front of the crowd and said out loud, "He keeps asking me to fight him but I won't, I will not fight unless I need to, like the way you taught me." Bradley was smiling a bit and I started to laugh a bit. "Son, you might think because he's human he won't fight you but that's not the real reason," I said to the ogre, the guy looked mad at me then he charged at me.
Andreea was right behind me at this point and I noticed her right when the guy got really close to my face. I took the guy's hand and I threw him to the ground, without hitting the kid I threw him again but this time to a bench. He landed on the bench and looked at me in fear, I walked over to him. "We don't fight unless we have to, you understand why now right?" I asked him and shook his head yes. " I'm sorry if I hurt you, young man, whats seems to be bothering you since you wanted to fight really bad?"
"The guy tear up he began to cry a bit, "My father had been very mean as of late, he heard a couple of humans have been given permission to go here. He told me that I had to get rid of you or I will not be able to come home." The young Ogre said to me and he saw my face from being curious to being pissed in a second. I looked at the crowd and they saw how angry I was, "I was asked to be here from the council, what does your father know about a human like me and my brother?" I asked the young man, Andreea came up to us and she ordered me to go sit down. "I'll be contacting your father young man, there's a no-bullying policy on school property."
Andreea sent me and Bradley home and she would show up near the middle of the night.
