Chapter 18 - Good news or bad news

The student hall was crowded with students, some coming in and some already present. As expected, everywhere was noisy. the top five were all present at the very front of the hall. John was among those coming in, as well as Eleen and Angel.

After a minute of waiting, a loud voice can be heard from the hall.

"Silence!" The robotic voice of the computer echoed loud, bringing the voices of the studnetts to a stand still.

"You all shall be picking the teams which you would be using for this entire semeester" The computer, continued, the hall still quiet.

The quitness of the hall was brought to an end and all the students went back to their noisy and rowdy state, all discussing about the present situation.

John wasn't interested, he crouched down at the nereby wall unconcerned and scoffed at the idea, "And here i was thinking we had a mission."

"A ping shall appear over each students head and those whose pings have thesame colors shall be on thesame team. Note that fifty deferent colors is included in these exercise..." The robotic voice of the cmputer echoed, casuing the students to begin to search for their various team members.

John's ping had a blue icon over his head. The ping was approximately two feets over the students heads and could only be seen when their system implant was active.

"So i have a bright blue ping hun! So it means i have to look for someone with a similar ping" John said to himself, as he searched the hall for a blue ping icon.

"There you are!" John exclaimed, making his way through the students. He struggled his way through the crowd as almost everyone were all looking for their team members.

As he got closer to the blue ping, he couldn't help but think who was under that ping.

Soo Ah, Rose and Soo Ah were all searching for their pings, Rose ping was red and both Soo ah and Lucas ping were...

John finall reached the end of his struggle and the blue ping was right in front of him. A solemnly surpirsised expression showed in his face.

"Eleen?!"

Back at Villains head quarters,

"Based on the available information given to me, i cann say that miss Eleen was telling you to cancel the mission" The computer replied.

"So they must have found out about our raid... interesting" prime master smiled with interest.

"Cancel the raid on hero academy. We shall give Eleen a litle bit of time to complete her mission and when last have you heard from our informant?"

"Will do sir and it's been four days since we last heard from our informant" said his side man.

"Interesting" Prime master smiled.

Back at hero academy,

"We have him at one of our security sells.." The prison guard said, addressing Layla.

"Very well and keep this a secret from the higher ups" Layla commanded. The man immediately nooded his head in agreement and left the office.

Layla picked up her phone and called Grandpa,

"We've just caught the informant and it seems that he was part of our securiy team. I need you to come interrogate him" Layla said.

"I hope he was not placed in a normal secured cell?" Grandpa asked with a sense of urgency in his voice.

"Yes but why do you ask?" Layla replied, curious of grandpa's reply.

"Send your men capable of ice formation to the prison ward now. How do you think he was able to infiltrate the security team! I'm on my way" Grandpa yelled, immediately cutting the call.

"Send available supernaturals with ice formation to ward 131 immedaitely" Layla commanded with urgency.

"He may have the ability to clone faces or even turn to gas. Our ice supernaturals should be able to freeze the surrounding air and hereby stop his movement"

Layla immediately dashed out of her office towards the Prison.

The whole place was fiull with unconscious prison attendants or even supernaturals themselves, there was no sign of blood which indicated that the informant may have had the ability to turn to gas.

"Code red. I repeat code red" Layla echoed through the telephone present in the prison.

"Our ability suppressor can not be able to work on gas users. If only we had treated him as a high level threat. Now the students and every other person are at risk" Layla said, her voice full of emotion and dissapointment.

Back at The student's hall,

"Eleen?!" John said in surprise.

"John" Eleen said, trying to force a smile.

"When, how..." John uttered confusedly.

"I'm also a late bloomer" Eleen replied.

John kept on staring at her until it became akward.

"Why dont we find our other group members" Eleen said, snapping John out of his akward look.

"Ma'm i think the informant has merged among the students"
