Chapter 4 - The outlawed

The next morning looks serene, the atmosphere is cold and gracious. The radiating sun is rising from the east as it sets to fix itself at the west viewpoint.

Mellifluous hymns of the birds could be heard among the trees as they flapped their wings gracefully, sending chill sensations to the inhabitants of the green woods.

Princeton is awake, he could be seen standing close by a crystal rivulet. His hands crossed behind him, his eyes pierce at the running river as he loiters silently for the ladies to wake up from their deep slumber.

Momentarily, meddling shuffles could be heard behind as if someone was struggling. It came as a signal to him that one of the ladies is awake and when he swiveled instantly, his eyes came to terms with the both of them widely awake.

"Good morning!" Sapphire greeted as she stood from the ground, quickly brushing her messy butt.

"Good morning," Naomi acknowledged, but it came as if she was being coerced to say the formidable words. Likewise, she stood to her feet.

"How we're your nights?" Princeton asked, he took slow strides toward the ladies.

"It's was fine," Sapphire muttered, she bestowed him an insignificant smile which hastily vanished in a blink.

Princeton glimpsed it he massaged the nape of his neck not knowing what to say to her. He merely flickered his eyes back to the rivulet behind as if in deep reflection.

"Mine was f*ck!" Naomi half-yelled, sullenly her lips brim.

"We have to leave now, there's no outlawed insight," Princeton said further as he turned his head back at them.

"We? I'm not going, I never said I wanna go," Sapphire disputed as she gave a one-sided shrug.

"You have to, and you will," Princeton affirmed, his voice dominating firmly.

"And why will she?" Naomi asked, jutting out her arms and putting her palms forward questionably.

"Besides, she said she's not following us, why force her, Princeton?" She queried.

"I never invited you to stick your nosy mouth, Naomi. Stay out of this," Princeton warned, glaring daggers at her.

Naomi bowed in chagrin at his words, anger gushed through her as she inwardly glowed at Sapphire hatefully.

"Please, I don't want to burden you guys with my problems. I just wish to go now," Sapphire let out.

Her voice reflected extremely serious, her firmed countenance says it all as she attempts to leave the spot.

A thunderous growl reverberated throughout the once peaceful woods, and Sapphire startlingly halted on her track.

The benign woods became eerie and the vociferous shrills of the creature occur to be the same as the unruly creature last night.

Precipitously, the perching birds on the trees squeak in immense terror, fleeing to their habitats for protection away from the wrath of nature.

"What's that?!" Sapphire stammered as she hastily swiveled with a taut brow.  

Her face furrowed as she saw Princeton and Naomi standing in valor, their eyes ravaging at the sky in the exploration of the upcoming peril. Their palms widened and their fingers cringes midway as if attempting to conjure something significant.

"It's outlawed!" Princeton snarls, his baring teeth elongating his long fangs shamelessly.

Sapphire freezes as she felt a cold tightness in the pit of her stomach, her body grew extremely cold on seeing the other mystic side of him. She was no longer discerning that studmuffin man but a feral monster.

"I wonder how many are out there," Naomi rasped, her eyelashes blinking rapidly as her yellow orbs shifted into unique pigments.

"O-oh my God!" Sapphire murmurs, her voice extremely shaky which was evident that she was scared to death.

The vicious creature comes up in the sky, with his huge wings and gnashing fang teeth. It let out a long howl of turmoil as it zipped to its pry.

"Ahhhhhh!" Sapphire shrieks on beholding the creature, her eyes zoomed extremely wide as she kept shrieking in trepidation.

An insane tornado abruptly emerged, whirling throughout the woods as every lightweight object in the wild scenery, glides up voluntarily in the void air. It was as if the lady's screams were unsettling the turbulent sensation.

"I gat this alpha!" Naomi shouted amidst the chaos, she grits her teeth fearlessly as she forcefully propelled her arm towards the sky at the provoking creature.

In a sprinkle, Princeton whisked towards the screaming Sapphire, grasping her closer to himself as he struggled to safeguard her from the uncontrollable furious winds while Naomi battled with the creature.

She was having a difficult moment winning against the creature, it occurs to be stronger and tougher than the one she solely killed last night.

"Arrrrgggghhh!!" The creature bellows in pain as it swung into raven ashes, and then, faded away in a flicker.

Quickly, Naomi made use of her hands to obscure the wild breezes from attacking her. She struggled difficultly as she caught sight of Princeton hugging Sapphire closely in protection as if his life depends on it.

"What?!" She grumbled angrily, she couldn't make a move as the violent breezes wouldn't cease their stormy outrages to nature.

In a blink, the destructive tornado wiped out and every speck chills out. The woods came to be as if it wasn't in chaos a moment ago.

Unhurriedly, Princeton pulls his hands away from Sapphire's waistline. He gulps down drily while she took a step and a step back frighteningly away from him. She stopped on a spot and they both stood in front of each other in stillness, gazing and maintaining eye locks.

"Th-thank you," Sapphire thanked him, cracking her eyes away from him.

Nervously, she wrenches her hair behind her ear, slightly shivering at his heated eyes on her. She wished he could look away already. He was no longer bearing his long fangs.

Somehow, she doesn't know how to explain but when he had hugged her, she felt an electrifying weird connection with him.

"IMPOSSIBLE!"

Princeton and Sapphire heard Naomi exclaim in what's occurred to be a huge shock, and they both spun instantly to what she was gaping at.

In a distance, they both saw a magnificent gigantic building, more like an ineffable silver castle. The golden coated gate at the entrance was boldly inscribed on its elevated top - "THE OSCAR'S ACADEMY"

"The academy magical portal has never been unlocked before for thousands of years now, how come this happened?" Naomi asked rhetorically.

She was in so much awe and curiousness that she began her paces into the academy, not lingering for the others behind her.

Princeton was dazed as well, what Naomi said was true. The academy portal has never been pulled down for many years, it was the purely magical portal that conceals the academy from the evil creatures and humans.

Meanwhile, Sapphire was inwardly admiring the essence of the academy and its perfect body traits. Everything feels extremely magical in its appearance and powerful aura.

Shortly, she tugged her lips aside as she recall the reality that she had opposed dwelling in the school according to Princeton's words.

Certainly, her destiny doesn't lay here...

"Let's go!" Princeton whistled, dragging Sapphire out of her thoughts.

She threw a confusing stare at him as her mind was in disorder. "Huh?" she asked.

Sapphire doesn't know, she couldn't clearly explain it at all but her legs worked on their own as they both strode towards the academy.

Reaching the golden coated gate, they passes through it and Sapphire stared back to glance at the woods. However, surprisingly, she saw none but a few buildings here and there. It was as if she was in another world. Conceivably, a magical realm. And that extremely perplex her.

"Isn't it obvious? It's an academy meant for the supernatural," her subconscious mind told on.

Entering the left bridle path of the yard, their presence was welcomed by a lot of the population consisting of youthful guys and young ladies. They clenched expressionless and barren faces as their digging eyes were seated on her, Sapphire presumed them to be the students.

Eventually, they came to a sudden halt as they stood in front of the people. A cold silence spreads willingly in the air and was accompanied by a tense climate as none was saying a word. Sapphire could tell the souls were curious and doesn't seem happy at her presence.

"Alpha!" the people suddenly bowed, Sapphire knew they were exhibiting their reverence to Princeton.

"Hm!" Princeton merely hummed in response in a nonchalant manner.

Momentarily, an older man emerged. He appears muscularly built and he donned a black suit. At the left side of his breast pocket, a white steeled barge could be seen as it was written. "Dean Macdonald"

He walked gallantry with his stony expression, his hands crossed behind him as he strode. Behind him was an older man who dresses casually in grey sweatpants and a white hoodie. And then, a young pretty woman who wore a modest pink gown that the rims edged on her knees.

Respectfully, the folks bowed as they paved the way for the older ones who moved toward the squad that had just penetrated the academy.

Meanwhile, Sapphire presumed them to be the academy's possessors as they halted in front of the folks with their eyes specifically on her.

A stilled silence falls in, and it was as if there was a staring competition going on.

"Okay, sorry to say this... But, I'm I the only one feeling a bit odd about these whole upheavals?" the young pretty woman breaks down the silence with a soft lingering chuckle.

"I feel the same here, the academy magical portal got pulled down and a human in the academy?" The older man who stood beside her scoffed, dramatically.

"This is so gonna be...Interesting!" Naomi snickered inwardly.

Impatiently, she dawdles in deep anticipation for the drama to unfold itself.
