Chapter 4 - Chapter 4

~narrotor POV~

The Sun was shining the air buzzing and everything seem to be nice, it was a good day A nice weather. Somewhere students were going to school, upon reaching the class one of the kids stood up.

Table screeching because of being pushed, "where is Aries?" Daniel suddenly asked

" huh? What are you talking about? Is he not here yet?" one of the kids asked

" yeah, that's why I'm asking. It's almost time for class but I ain't seeing him anywhere." he explained

" maybe you stuck somewhere. Maybe he'll be here soon. Just sit down and he'll be here."

" damn it!" he went out of the classroom looking for his buddy.

He couldn't find him anywhere so he tried calling him on the phone but the phone couldn't even be picked. He then went back to class.

Teacher came in as usual and did the announcements. Well she was doing announcements she also mentioned something let's pick the interest of Daniel.

" I have to announce that a friend Aries want to be joining us today because he had lost his parents in an accident. The funeral will be taking place today and I urge you to give a condolences to him." she explained

The other students couldn't believe their ears.

"No wonder he hasn't shown up today"

" that's so sad"

Is devastating to lose both parents at the same time"... The murmured

After classes the kids decided to select a few from the class to go and give condolences to their friend. Daniel was one of them too. Well they were planning, no I told that Aries was now staying at his grandma's place in the next town.

And knock on the door alerted Aries. In a gloomy mood he went to check who it was. What greeted him on the door was his friends from class.

" hi Aries. We heard what happened to you and we came here to give you our condolences." one of the representative of the group said

" oh, thank you for your concern. Please come in." he let them in and gave them tea.

While the recipient of tea, Aries explained what happened the best he could.

" it was a fire accident. Something must have caught fire in the house and it was a little flame. The time was coming back from the factory, well I work in the factory for your knowledge, and when I got back home or I could see was fire blazing and burning down my house. I called the ambulance on the firefighters and they came. They turned off the fire but my parents had been stuck inside and they... They...." he didn't have the strength to finish.

Suddenly there was a snap in the room like wood being broken, looking at the source of the sound, Iris was holding the table which broke and snapped due to peel strength exerted on it. His knuckles were white in suppression.

" we are sorry that happened." one of them said as he put the money on the table. " please take this money as our condolences to what happened. We wish you well and in good health."

" thank you." he replied

" greet your grandmother for us please."

" sure."

Soon they went their way back to their homes. Suddenly he chuckled.

" I can't believe they fell for it. With my grandmother and she should not appear with the tea?" he asked himself and started laughing, bitterly laughing. The house that he was staying in was just a backup house which he used to meet people he didn't want to come close with his parents.

" at least they are thoughtful. Even so, you wouldn't be too sure who is an enemy, because sometimes the enemy could do good deeds. I wouldn't necessarily see if I had an enemy in that class, if anything it will come to time when I will know. I'm going to get my revenge."

Several days later passed and Aries didn't go to school yet. It is later on found out that he transferred to school. However where he went nobody really knew him and nobody didn't even give him a glance. It was like he was invisible. He tried befriending some people but they would excuse themselves to get away from him or actually run away. He wondered why people were doing that. Even sometimes animals would bark at him or run away from him. What he didn't know was that he was exuding and negative aura that envelope him. The bitterness and the sorrow and the rage and all the negative feelings that he had inside of him we're exposing outside his body through this aura, and he was like the face of death among living creatures. Well that didn't do him any good because of this he was most of the time isolated. All he wanted was company, especially after what happened to him any human being would want company and comfort. But he never could have that again.

In a new school the teacher stood in front of the class.

" class we have a new, uh, you can come in!" he said this as he stuttered.

The students were puzzled to see their teacher like this because it was the first time seeing him like this. They wondered who the new student was to make theiris that teacher react like this. The first step Aries took into the classroom, and negative Aura was poured into the classroom and it made the students shiver as if they were standing in a graveyard in front of their grave that was dig already. Aries walked to the front of the classroom.

" hi, I'm Aries cold. I've just moved into the town, I hope we get along." he said

The thoughts of the students swarm around the classroom. ' get along with this kind of aura? You would die just becoming his friend!', ' who wants to do that?!', no I'm going to stay away from this person'

Iris could tell that the students were all giving him the cold shoulder. He wasn't sure if it is going to workout with the other students.

" you can take any seat you want." the teacher told him. He went on to look for a place to sit and he saw a space at the back of the classroom. He proceeded to go sit there. Some of the students that were sitting around him moved to the other side. They were chilled to the bones by just being near him. The classes proceeded to take place and every class he was introduced in he received the same treatment And he as usual chose the back seat just to get away from the stares of other students. Classes went on and came to an end. He took his bag and went out of the school to go home, somewhere he found the place to stay he could easily afford the place or by the food because of the money that he was getting from the jobs and the missions. When it comes to tuition his parents had already got it covered that even if they were away on a trip, which in our case the trip is going to be very long one as in they are dead, he was able to still go to school. As he was working in a certain alley he felt that several people were following him.

' are they not tired with me yet? Do they want to finish me too?' he asked himself

He then realized but these people who were followed him were quite clumsy. ' it must not be them. I wonder who they are. Well not even in the mood to chat with somebody!' he walked as he had a an annoyed expression on his face. A minute later he was surrounded.

" hey you! New kid." one of the boys called.

They went forward towards him but suddenly stopped in the tracks. The one who just spoke gupped while cold sweat broke. He wasn't as brave as he was moments before. He suddenly felt a chill down his bone.

" you were saying?" Aries asked

"Nothing man, we just wanted to say hi. We're just passing by." he said

One of the boys that you are standing a bit far was puzzled by the sudden change of his friends' words.

" hey man what you talking about?" he asked him

" shut up!" his friend replied. " don't mind him, he's just confused." he told Aries

Aries chuckled, thinking ' I mean you are the one who is confused when you look at this situation'

" hey! You find this funny?" that's very soon kid asked. He was annoyed. He suddenly took a steps forward to deal the situation but he felt it too and he stopped in his tracks. He didn't ask questions and just turned around and run. When the other so that their friend dish them they quickly turned and run away too. Aries knew that their mind was to discipline him as being the new kid. he Understood that they haven't heard about him yet. But what areas didn't know is that even though he had a certain reputation bike in the town that he was staying in in this new town he had established a new reputation. Him having the ability to develop new powers as he lives on made him also to grow other abilities because of the situation he was in over the death of his parents. It made him to grow the ability that brings despair, fear, hopelessness and so many other negative feelings in other people. He had not realized it yet so he couldn't necessary to control it. His presence was so dense and dark that the other people couldn't withstand to be around him. Word had already gone throughout the school about the new dark mysterious student. Some were thrilled to have met somebody worthy of their challenge to fight with, some thought that the rumors were just Bluffs and some was scared and prayed that they were never noticed by that person. If we talk about the teachers, they were already back in the principle to remove the boy from the class.

" if we move the boy from your class, and from your class to, and your class too the boy wouldn't even have a class to attend. What are you trying to say. Just teach the boy!" the principal angrily said

" you don't understand sir the boys evil, his dangerous. We can't have him in our class or he would disturb us students!" they pleaded

" no that won't work. Please please. Don't you have a home to go to?" he chased them away.

They knew that they have failed to persuade the principle and then they had to live with this boy throughout the term.

As Aries walked he saw a little cat on the sidewalk. He tried going to pet it but once he got near the cut it run away with a hiss. Sigh, ' even the cat runs away from me'.
