As I wear the ring that father gave me with his last breath, I felt strange. My head was in terrible pain, and I even felt like a bomb just exploded inside my brain. All of my muscles are strained, I couldn't move much, and breathing was even very hard at that instance. I looked at my surroundings, it was getting brighter and brighter even though it was in the middle of the night.
I couldn't handle standing up, so I was forced to kneel down, while looking at the nerves of my hands slowly glowing. I felt a surge of peculiar power through my blood. My body heat was rising, I lost my ability to see clearly.
I hold my head with both hands, to just ease the pain caused by this extreme headache, but it just wouldn't stop. Then I felt heat bursts from my eyes, even hotter than my eyes felt my hands closing them.
I couldn't handle it anymore, and so I screamed as loud as I could. I lost my vision, but remember that something comes out of or either comes inside my body from above creating a vertical streak through the roof. I don't know how far the blast reached, maybe even through the earth's atmosphere.
After that painful and magical experience, I fainted. For an entire week.

I woke up in some kind of student health center room. With many beds around me, and many other people lying down on them. They were unconscious. I felt this weird ease in my heart, I felt like home, despite knowing that I was in a place that I've never visited before.
Someone knocked, and opened the door in the corner of the room. He was a tall old man, with a muscular body. He was accompanied by his two assistants. He looked at me and slowly walked towards me.
He sat on a chair beside my bed, and began to talk, "You're finally awake. How do you feel?" he asked me with a deep and rough voice. I looked at my hands, my chest, my torso, down to my feet, I was okay, I felt great, but still weak.
"I... am okay," I answered briefly.
The old man sighed, cleared his throat, and began to talk again, "My name is Yuukai, I am the headmaster of this special school. You are one of a hundred people we managed to save after the Great Search last week,"
The Great Search, that's what the people are referring to when asked about the havoc last week. A man with peculiar power only known by the Dark or Darkness destroyed and killed many people, only for the sake of finding me.
"We have buried your parents with honor, and if you'd like to, I will gladly take you to your parents' graves," said Yuukai, with grief and sorrow in his eyes. At that instance, I didn't remember well what happened, only after that old man told me, that I remembered the horrible thing done to my parents by that evil man.
"No, I'm fine," I answered, looking at my hands. I was trembling, even though I felt better, but my body felt strange. If I was a video game character, maybe this is how it felt to gain new abilities after leveling up. Then out of curiosity I asked Yuukai, "What happened to me?"
Yuukai stood up, then offered me his hand, "Let me show you,"
