Tricia walks along the part of the university fiddling with her phone as she headed for her first lectures which was in ten minutes. As she walks by, students throw curious glances at her some and whisper among themselves.
As she turns at the corner into the path that leads to the lectures hall, someone screams her name from behind. Hearing the familiar voice, she turns around and sees her best friend Valerie scurrying towards her, her books bouncing in her hands.
Stopping besides Tricia, she gasp in air as tries to study her breathing smiling awkwardly.
"you look moodier than usual. tell me, did prince charming leave today?"
Tricia glares at and looks down.
"Oh my!, there's confirmation !" She reaches out and pulls her face up.
"Did he kiss you?, or did you kiss him?"
Tricia blushes and swats her hand then hurries away muttering
"shameless!"
"Oh my!, she blushes!"
Valerie giggles excitedly and hurries after her screaming.
"Tricia!, wait up, or am going to tell everyone_ _ _,"

The duo walk into the ever noisy lectures hall and scan the hall for any haven't seats. Finding most of the front seats unoccupied, and very few vacant ones at the back. Tricia begins walking to the front when Valerie pulls her back.
"Don't tell me that you plan on sitting in front row bestie?"
"Yeah, what's wring with sitting in the front row?"
She widens her eyes at her and Valerie scoffs unbelievably.
"Jeez, bestie, don't_ _,"
"Oh, come on Val, not now. Look, people are beginning to stare!"
She cuts her off and begins walking to the front.
Valerie is left with no other option than to follow behind her grumbling.
" I forget, prince charming advised you to be a good student_,"
Tricia turns back and glares at her before continuing forward.
"Never mind!"
Valerie mutters and follows suite.
The settle at the front with Valerie grumbling and accusing Tricia of trying to shame her as she complained that she wouldn't be able to doze off without the lecturer turning her into a class monument and throwing all his questions at her. Tricia fiddles with her phone and pays deaf ears to Valerie who kept poking her for a reaction.
At exactly a minute to the assigned time. The lecturer, a man with in his early fifties with black and a mixture of grey streaks in his hair walks in through the door and assumes his position in front.
The class lasted for two hours and finally came to and end to the relief of the students. As the lecturer steps out of the hall, Valerie yawns and rubs her eyes exclaiming.
"That was so torturing and boring!"
She turns to Tricia and pikes at her.
"Bestie, how did you survive that?"
Tricia raises her brow at her as she gathered her things.
"If you continue like this, you won't get to pass this semester!"
"Oh, why won't I?", "When I have a super intelligent friend as a bestie!"
Tricia is about to put in her place when the screen of her phone lights up displaying Xavier's name.
Valerie snatches it from her exclaiming.
"Is that prince char_ _ _,"
She pauses when she sees the name on the screen. She blinks her eyes and is speechless. Tricia hits her playfully and snatches the phone from her as she stood still n a daze. She pulls out her Earpiece and plucks it on then accepts the call. When the call ended, she pulls out the earpiece then turns to Valerie who had been very quiet and listening to her.
I need to head to the Black block bestie!"
The reason for its name Black block being, it was restricted to students.
"Is there a problem?"
Valerie gazes curiously at Tricia.
" I think there should be one!"
Tricia mutters and glance around the hall finding it be almost deserted except for some
few people who were hanging around at the back and a trio girls who sat at one end.
"Can I tag along?"
Valerie urges rises from her seat and grabbing her bag.
"Yeah, you can!"
Tricia mutters as she heads for the door of the hall. As they walked by the group of girls, the girl with black hair stares at them with a blank expression on her face.
"You don't have to stare,at them that way;"
The one with gold colored hair and brown eyes mutters.

Arriving at the black block, Tricia goes through a face scan before they are allowed entry. They hop into an elevator and head for the eight floor. Arriving there, Tricia pulls out her phone and calls Xavier while Valerie scans the building in awe as this as this was her first time of stepping into it.
"Receiving the reply she sought, she puts away her phone and leads Valerie down the corridor.
Tricia stopped in front a door that read Reserved and turns the knob stepping into it.
"Is this a games rooms?"
Inquired Valerie from behind as she looks about curiously.
"Not really!"
Tricia responds and walks further in as the not so loud music drains their footsteps.

Three girls sat on a pavement close to a monument that spurt water from its mouth at center of the University as the conversed among themselves.
"Nelia, you have bee unusually quiet since morning.Is there a problem?"
The blond haired girl Lor, spoke to the dark haired girl with black eyes who just stared at the dragon that was spurting water.
"Did you also feel that those two girls emitted a radar sought of Strange energy?"
The Brown haired girl who's name was Vivienne piped in.
"Not the both of them. But rather, the one with the blond hair."
corrected Lor.
"What does that mean, cause it felt very different from ours!"
Vivienne continues and Lot shrugs.
"I don't have an idea, have never felt such before!"
"Could she be a vampire?"
Questions Vivienne causing Lor to stay at her.
"I think so, unless_," she pauses and thinks
"She's a kind of higher vampire. I don't know?, that's just my guess!"
Nelia sits absentmindedly as her mind travels back to yesterday night. She had pounced on the lady wanting to consume her soul, but when her hand had come in contact with her stomach, she had felt like her soul had being drawn out instead. Up and till now, she couldn't still feel her powers. It felt like the baby had drained her powers.
