Chapter 11 - With pleasure.

Three figure stood before Xadia,with one of them standing out the most, his name was Spike,he had a spiky glowing red hair and Xadia recognized him,he was a member of his class.

"Now what do we have here, it's the duke of sneakers" Spike said smirking wildly as they approached Xadia.

Ignoring the taunt Xadia proceeded to walk past them, "oi ,I'm talking to you" Spike said grabbing Xadia's arm jerking him to the wall.

Now Spike could see Xadia's watch,his eyes burned with fury. "How dare you a level 1 piece of shit ignore me," Spike shouted his arms engulfing in flames.

Gritting his teeth and bearing through the pain, Xadia sprung his body to the side making spike lose his grip on him, he then delivered a punch to his face.

One of the other two figures quickly rushed at Xadia, giving him a knee to his stomach and holding him up back to the wall, it was a very fast move, one a normal human being couldn't achieve, and that was the case as the attacker was a level 3 augmenter.

A warm liquid slowly dripped down Spike's nose, running his fingers on his face , Spike could soon make out what the liquid was, it was blood "You sonuva bitch" Spike roared launching himself at Xadia with burning arms.

Seeing the attack coming, Xadia was suddenly seeing a shadow form of Spike moving before him,it was red in colour and it looked like an alter ego of Spike.

"Is this an ability" Xadia internally thought

Shifting to the side Xadia had avoided the attack,he then delivered an elbow jab to the side hitting one of Spike's bully squad knocking him out on the spot.

"What is this" Xadia wondered, although he wanted to hit the guy, a sudden force had pulled his elbow towards the enemy, it was fast and it wasn't of his own will.

Another punch came from Spike, tilting his head to the side, the attacked had missed, the other figure had also decided to join the attack, punch after punch came but Xadia was easily avoiding them, it was as if he knew where they would hit.

Spike's blood was boiling,not only had Xadia avoided his attack,he was doing so at a very fast and easy way. "is he a psychic" one of Spike's squad asked a rhetorical question.

Putting his hands together, flickers of fire had began to appear in between them as Spike was conjuring a fire ball.

Throwing his arms out the fire ball launched out of Spike's arms going out with a fast projectile, heading for Xadia.

Suddenly and energy shot through xadia's body and exploding with energy xadia rush towards Spike,going through the fireball unfazed, dodging a blow from spike, Xadia then lifted him up and slammed him to the ground, and with a quick jab he knocked the other attacker of his feet and slammed him to the wall.

Looking at the bodies lying on the floor Xadia was using every inch of his strength to stop the force that was compelling him to continue is attack on the enemy.

The pressure of the energy was too much and Xadia was finding it hard to breathe ,finding the strength in his legs Xadia quickly ran out of the hall heading outside of the school.

Walking into the hall, the students were bewildered at the sight infront of them.

"Who could have done this" Ivy thought speechless, with three bodies laying infront of them, and there looked to be black marks on the floor.

"Spike is at least a level 3 fire conjurer, it takes at least a level 4 siphon to defeat him". one of the students pointed out.

Meanwhile Xadia was breathing heavily as he was beginning to regain control of his body, getting away from the bully's had somehow calmed the force in his body.

His clothes were dirty and ripped in some places,he looked like a mad man in tartarred clothes.

Xadia had a wide grin on his face as he was now sure he was a siphon, somehow he hadn't lose his consciousness during the fight and was able to overwhelm his enemies.

Although the force that overcomed Xadia had bothered him,he was thankful that his dream of getting stronger wasn't out of arm's reach.

"To be able to see my enemies move before they attack, that's an amazing ability". He thought.

Eventually the sky was turning orange has the fluorescent light of the sun beamed down the dome enclosing of the school, and Xadia made his way to the dormatory.

Entering his new dorm room, the air suddenly turned thick, a certain figure locked eyes with him as they stood motionlessly glaring at each other.

Tyson's uniform was just as dirty as Xadia's own as he held it in his arms having changed into a new cloth,the cloth was soaked in black and red blood and Xadia wondered what had happened to him.

"At least I'm not the only one who got ambushed today, what happened to him he looks worst than me" Xadia thought

Eventually Tyson moved and shoved the clothes into his cupboard and stormed out of the room, not uttering a single word to Xadia.

Getting undressed Xadia did the same thing and proceeded to the bathroom taking his bath and soon headed out.

Heading to the training,it was suprisingly empty as Xadia slowly made his way to the blue area, going to the orb that was hovering at the center of the room.

"hmm,I wonder" Xadia said as he placed his hand on the hovering black orb.

The orb then began to light up, illuminating the whole room in a silver white blinding light, Xadia then let go of the orb as he squinted his eyes bearing through the effects of the blinding light.

Ivy's mouth was agape as she had seen what Xadia had done, as the class president she had been given the task to enlighten Xadia about the different classes that the school offered, she had looked for him everywhere and had decided to check the training room as a last resort before heading to her dorm, thus seeing the inexplicable phenomenon.

"How is this possible even a level 5 siphon energy can't glow like this, why would he hide his ability, I saw his watch the other time and it clearly shown level 1" Ivy said puzzled by what she had seen.

"Just as I thought" Xadia said satisfied from the result of his theory.

Heading out of the training room Xadia was making his way back to the dorm,but he was stopped as he heard a voice call him.

"Xadia!!"

Looking back Xadia could see who it was."Ivy!!" Xadia exclaimed his cheeks soon turning red. "what are you doing here?" Xadia asked.

"I've been looking for you, counselor Hex requested for me to assist you with the classes you would be taking for this semester" Ivy replied

"Since you're not a siphon you're elegible for four classes, construction class, research class which is compulsory for all students,martial class and alchemy class" She explained.

"How many classe does the school have?"

"Seven classes,martial class for Augmenters and normies, Cultivation class for all siphons, Conjurer's class, Mutant's class, Alchemy for Emitters and also normies, and finally Research class and Construction class, you can go to any classes you wish, but you wouldn't go to a class you won't benefit from right?" Ivy said with a serious face.

"Yh I guess" Xadia said scratching his neck

"Thank you for your time, I will be going now, good night" Ivy said

"Goodnight " Xadia replied with a smile.

Walking to the female dorm,ivy was lost in her thoughts. "Why would he hide his power, does he not want to be noticed, I know with that type of energy power, he'd be everyone's friend, I'll keep an eye on him, try to become his friend, he might be helpful in the future".

Gritting his teeth and clenching his fist Spike was in the infirmary reminiscing about what had happened in the day. "How can a level 1 defeat all three of us" Spike thought pressing the ice nylon bag in his hands this head.

Suddenly a dog whistle like sound was transmitted to his ea and a rotten deep voice was heard, it was the effects of an ability

"Spike, you have been giving a task"

" I'm listening"

"A boy just enrolled in your school, he has black hair with the new Cr5 on his legs"

Hearing the description of the person,spike clasped his hands engulfing the ice bag in flames and soon it had turn to liquid.

"I can tell by the unorthodox silence that you have met him,boss wants you to take care of him".

"With pleasure". Spike said with a stern look on his face.
