Chapter 65: The Rage of the Skeleton!!!
After Alisha had seen her mother off, she started to walk back to the hostel.
As she moved past the buildings and trees, she slowly slouched in thought, until she reached the entrance of her hostel.
It was right there that she saw Lancelot Jr waiting for her by the corridor.
She tried to move past him.
He didn't stop her but slowly followed behind her.
Lancelot Jr created airwaves while keeping his hands behind his back to prevent detection from peeping eyes.
He does this anytime he offends Alisha or makes her unhappy.
The airwaves moved toward Alisha and roams around her body finding entrances.
And when it has found am entrance..
It would then seep into her clothes and get into ticklish spots like her armpits.
Alisha tried to resist the ticklish feeling of the airwaves but after a short while of fruitless struggle, she started to giggle loudly.
Seeing that she was calmer, he then spoke;
"I'm sorry Alisha, I didn't recognize the feelings you had towards me"
He walked closer to her and stood in front of her, while Alisha blushed slightly,
"What feelings?" Alisha asked with a mischievous smile.
"So that's how it is..." Lancelot Jr then bombarded her ticklish spots with the airwaves,
She giggled even louder than before as she ran away from the direction of the incoming airwaves.
Close by, a student in a green tank top, ran to where Lancelot Jr stood and punched towards him,
Lancelot Jr prepared his dodging move as he spoke, "Mind as calm as the seas, movement like a fluid"
He easily outmaneuvered the punch, dodging to a side to get a view of his attacker.,
"ROB, WHAT DO YOU WANT!" Alisha shouted when she noticed the attack on Lancelot Jr,
"If you won't give me your heart, then no one else can love you, I don't mind being expelled.."
Rob said sternly with his arms all turning to an alloy of two metals.
"Rob you're 17 years old, I'm just 13, besides our age difference, I really don't like you, stay away, you're a big bully"
Alisha was sobbing as she spoke.
Without hesitating, Lancelot Jr sped to her side, using the momentum of the wind.
"Whooosh"
He appeared next to her and patted her back as he looked angrily at Rob,
"You're so lucky that fighting isn't allowed on the school premises, I would have beaten that metallic brain of yours into mush, or maybe use it for another alloy, you might desire to get expelled, but you don't have to drag others with you." Lancelot Jr said with a frown.
Rob stared at Alisha as if not noticing Lancelot
Jr's presence.
"Alisha, for five years, I asked you out, professed my love for you, all you did was follow this pea brain around, you never gave me a decent reply.." Rob said as he ignored Lancelot Jr's words.
Suddenly there was an explosion, from the gate of the school, another explosion followed shortly after, then another and another, and it came close to the hostel.
By this time, the teachers had been alerted to the sudden attacks.
The Principal rushed as fast as she could to get every student out of the danger zone,
With the continued incessant attacks, the body parts of some students had laid scattered all around. Some teachers had deep injuries but were still alive.
The once beautiful surrounding of the school now became a complete mess with buildings crashing down.
Lancelot Jr rushed towards Alisha and grabbed her hand as they sped away from an incoming projectile, he knew he would need to generate more momentum to get to a safe distance away from it.
Rob didn't wait either, he ran as fast as his legs could carry him before the projectile detonated.
The sound was akin to crashing waves, it sounded so loudly that those nearby had temporary hearing loss.
Lancelot Jr had carried Alisha at this point and was flying in the air, not minding his secret being revealed, fortunately for him, the entire school was in too much of a panic mode to even care about a fire elemental displaying the abilities of an air elemental.
Finally, the attacks stopped, and a message beep sounded on all electronic devices and the face of a skeleton was shown before being replaced by a man in a mask,
"That is a test run, the next one would wipe out all elementals in this land, go back to your land or suffer the consequences. And tell that good for nothing Emperor of yours, we are coming for him."
The figure finished speaking and vanished from all electronic gadgets leaving behind a silent school.
The injured were so many, from teachers to students, even the medical attendants were injured.
Lancelot Jr and Alisha floated down in a distance and looked around.
Out of nowhere, the Principal appeared close to Lancelot Jr, she was heavily injured.
Her face was pale, she was bleeding all over, and she had been smashed against the wall from the force of the explosion.
She couldn't activate her earth elemental abilities in time to protect herself while trying to rescue others.
"Gabriel, it's up to you now," She said before she fell unconscious.
Lancelot Jr rushed to hold her up but she was too heavy for him, and he couldn't use his other abilities to supplement his inadequate physical strength in an open environment where many people were watching him closely, so he could only watch pitifully as she fell to the ground.
The uninjured teachers who were at the hostel moved around to clear the debris and gather the injured to the medical wing.
Since Lancelot Jr was a fire elemental, all he could do was use his ability in combat, such thoughts were the thinking and views of those around about Lancelot Jr, so no one expected him to assist except in moving debris or looking for the injured, it helped him too to conceal his abilities.
Unless he saw someone who needed the help of his other elements in the situation of a life and death crisis, he won't do any more than people's uninformed expectations of him.
Shortly after, the news stations arrived one after the other, the news started to spread, as news channel after news channel interviewed and displayed the gory sight of the destruction of Captain Suzie Wang's elemental school.
"My name is Stan Lee reporting live on
Elemental Tv from Captain Suzie Wang's
Elemental school. As you can see, this is the mass destruction caused by this barbaric organization called skeleton."
"Without provocation or warning, they openly attacked the school, see so many corpses, see small children, their ages are of 5 to 1 0 years old, all dead, what inhumanity for people who call themselves humans, where is your reasoning. I demand an explanation from the human government..'
