In a large school garage, their are teleporter stations, in a teleport cubicle a bright light flashed and a boy with afro could be seen coming out. After leaving the teleport station he raced through the garage untill he was outside the building. Then he started running towards another building.
Running through the hallways Victor reached the lockers, he inserted his card in the slot and opened his locker. He took his badge and closed it. "I don't know how she is going to react but anyway is not like it's my first time coming late to her lessons, she should be used to it by now, besides what could possibly go wrong" He said to himself.
"Young Master frost, you have an 'F' for the day". Victor was speechlessly surprised. It's not like he didn't know that he will be punished but he was still surprised for getting an 'F' for a test exam he didn't even know was today. "Holy shit, I totally forgot it was today" Now the totally embarrassed young man walked to his sit and sat down. "What was that all about, why were you late today, I thought it was your day off yesterday?" Dave asked his best friend "Yeah it was but you know Dee, he came up with this excuses about how the customers always keep asking for me and he told me he would increase the cash. And it so happened that I was in need of money so…I had to go help out."
"If you were in need of money way didn't you tell me about it, I thought we were best friends how could you not ask me for help." "Stop being so dramatic it's already done and besides I don't want to keep bothering you with my money problems, that's why I got the job right? So forget about it, speaking of yesterday why didn't you call me or even text me about miss Anna's test you know she hates me." "About that I thought you wouldn't make it even if I told you and you proved my right." "How, you didn't even test." "Victor look at me" "am looking right at you man" whispered Victor with visible frustration on his face. "I know you man, you and I have been friends for like since we were ten so I know that you wouldn't have come even if you were told." Dave retorted "But I would have known, I would have tried but no you didn't tell me and that was not very cool of you." Victor said still whispering
"I would like to know the course of the disturbances over there Victor, just the minute you got an 'F' in your test today you have started disturbing my class. Now unless something is wrong with your damned gifted mind I would like you to give us you own opinion about the gift given to us by the correctors."
"Oh the Mana core?" Victor asked looking at the teacher with a nervous look she just continued staring at him as though she didn't hear anything "well in my own opinion the core is a gift but also a curse to our word" Victor finally said "and why is that" miss Anna asked now showing interest "because it not only made us evolve it also created monsters very powerful ones which are also threats to us."
"That quite a nice point you made looks like you're much less stupid than I thought." Miss Anna said with an amused face. Victor heaved a sigh of relief "but let my correct you on something. That things don't always go the way we hoped doesn't mean it's a curse. in life their is always balance" miss Anna said "if there is power without threat the word won't be balanced. And don't forget that we also benefit from said creatures to get stronger." She explained
The class went on for an hour before another teacher came in to teach them. Miss Anna's class is more of theory and histories about magic. The class they are having now though is the opposite, Mr Kane teaches about Mana harnessing for the mages.
"Class today we are going on another section of absorbing Mana which you know is the only way one can breakthrough that thin line and become a basic level mage since you are not strong enough to hunt creatures on your own."
"I hate this class" Dave said with displeasure. "Why, I like it you know? You can rest and also focus on absorbing Mana into you body it's just like killing two birds with one stone." Victor said obviously excited "I guess but it's just like meditation" dave sighed and focused
Feeling something hit his head Dave sighed and continued his meditation. 'Bump' he feels it again he turns around only to notice that some of his class mate where laughing at him some had stuffed ruffled paper in their hands and were throwing it at him "will you just fucking leave me alone!" Dave shouted. luckily Mr Kane has really been stressed out lately so he was fast asleep on his desk.
Hearing his best friend's shout he turned to him and saw what was going on. Apparently Dave has a paper with a note sticked to his back the note reads «am the trash eater so give me what you got» "what the fuck! who did this?" Victor asked surprised "stay out of this pretty boy" Justin said
Justin is a handsome guy who bullies people because of his background. All though that doesn't scare Victor, Victor is a hot headed boy with a short temper. He fought with Justin once and beat the hell out of him but was cornered on his way going home by men probably sent by Justin, Victor had to lie to his mother for weeks because of the injuries and bruises. ever since then Justin has cooled a little "this piece of shit. I don't care if your father is the Earth's president I will totally fuck you up right now." he said "oh yeah I'll like to see you try." Justin retorted back not wanting to lose face.
"Seems like you have forgotten how you were screaming the other day."
" When did I scream, I was just taken by surprise." Justin shamelessly fired back. Gritting his teeth Victor stood up and rolled up his sleeves "then let me remind you."
