Outis POV
'wonder who it is? A neighbor? Who the hell greets their neighbors when they just moved in?'
I approached the door with a little caution, I should be safe now that I was in the academy but one could never be "too safe".
Undoing the lock and twisting the door hand I slowly opened the door. Unfortunately I was not ready for who was on the other side, my body stiffened and my heart started beating louder and faster.
It was her!! The women I stole the carriage from! I knew she was a big shot because she had a carriage but I expected her to be a low level big shot! I didn't think she could track my location, at least not this quickly!
"Sh*t"
I slammed the door shut and ran to the nearest window, opened it and jumped out. 3 floors later I arrived at the grassy but still hard floor.
"Not my brightest idea"
I said as I limped away, I put my hoodie over my head so as to hide my identity.
'Zero activate my mask!'
< | Activating Mask | > |
Thousands of tiny little pieces of metal began to crawl from around my hoodie and onto my face. Yes, nano tech, I know not very original but nonetheless cool as hell right?
With my mask on I fled from the area, planning to hide and return to my dorm after that women left.

Back to normal POV
Meanwhile back in Outis' dorm
"That little shit!"
The blond haired women erupted with rage, the thief who had stolen her carriage didn't even bother greeting her!
How proposterous!
"Come back here you little shit!"
Mental energy radiated from the women as it left her body and scanned the surroundings. It spread throughout the entire campus and searched for Outis until-
"Found you"
And just like that, the blond haired women ran out in the direction Outis had gone to. Leaving a lot of confused students behind.
-----
Outis on the other hand was limping as fast as his body could take him. His speed was enough to put even Olympic athletes of earth to shame, though he seemed to be going in a random direction which probably didn't help.
The women on the other hand ran at her top speed, the air rippled as she forcefully pushed it out of her way. It didn't take more than 1 second for her to arrive informt of Outis.
"Where do you think your going!"
She asked in a threatening voice as she released her aura slightly, not enough to cause a huge stur but enough for Outis to now her rank.
'even the giant didn't exhude this strong an aura, is she a god? A rank 9? How did I steal a carriage from a rank 9!?!'
Outis panicked, his face turned deathly pale though the women couldn't see it because of his mask.
The women raised her hand as if to grap Outis by the throat only to pause midway.
"Shame, I wouldn't loved to hear your screams you little shit."
She said as she turns to face north, just then as if to mirror the women's way of arrival a middle-aged looking man appeared out of nowhere.
"What are you doing in my academy Willow?"
He said with dangerous glint In his eyes.
"Your student here stole my carriage then stole some money from me!"
Willow replied, no fear present on her face.
"Stole? Oh please Willow stop behaving like a child, him a rank 1 steal from you a rank 9 god? Like that would ever happen"
"I'm saying the truth he st-"
"That's enough, I won't tolerate your bullying of my students, if you have nothing else to do then leave."
The man didn't allow Willow to speak, he released some of his own aura so as to frighten Willow but failed.
Instead Willow looked at Outis, who by now was frozen in both shock and fear. The man's aura revealed his status as a rank 10!
Willow stared at Outis for a seconds before a cold and dangerous smile spread across her face.
"Fine then… I will take your student as my disciple."
She said as she grabbed Outis and left without saying a thing.
"Hahaha, you can't denie me this can you old man!"
She yelled mockingly as she ran away. The man on the other hand rubbed his temples like an adult would after a child outsmarted them, before muttering under his breath.
"At least she won't kill him"
Before turning around and leaving, and just like that the area retuned to it's usual calmness.

Outis POV
You know what sucks the most about my current situation, it's not the immense terror I currently have, it's not the abundant amount of fear I currently have for my life, nor is it the screaming lady besides me. No, the thing that sucks most is the itch I have on my right leg right now!
What? My situation? Well currently I've activated "Safe Mode". It's the thing I worked on before arriving at Borealis, it's an absolute defense mode in which even rank 9 gods can't hurt me! The cons? Well I guess being unable to move is a pretty big "con".
To be honest with you I also don't know where I currently am, or what is going on. One seconds I was there the next i was here and the lady began "teaching" me, saying things like, "I'm your master now so I gotta teach you!".
The scariest part is her laugh! It sounds like that of a villains laugh!
'I wanna go home'
"Open up you bastard disciple!"
*BAM!!*
'i felt that! What the hell Safe Mode should make be immune to all attacks from rank 9 and below beings!'
Ahhhhh I feel the terror setting in again, what a horrid feeling!

< | Safe Mode Integrity at 10% | > |
"Shit fine then turn off Safe Mode"
I felt the comfort of Safe Mode drift away as my clothes grew softer. Safe Mode worked by stuffing my clothing and making them very hard, my mask was there to protect my face.
"So you've finally decided to come out of your shell huh?"
A cold voice greeted me, followed by a large amount of pain on my head.
And then, there was darkness.
