Chapter 5 - When Mages Attack (Mel)

After Arcade left I refused to step a foot outside my room and since I had no more classes or training to do today I could get a way with staying here. In all honestly I couldn't even think straight after what happened with Caden with how angry he got and the way he pulled my hair I felt dazed like I was half asleep.

I lifted my hand to my hair where he had touched, I never thought he pull it out of anger and I didn't necessarily hate what he did which deeply disturbed me. Maybe it was because anything he touched me sent waves of want and longing through my body.

I let my hair drop back down to my shoulders and sighed.

Maybe I should cut it I thought to myself. Me and Arcade decided to grow our hair out at the beginning of college and haven't cut it since. His looked so beautiful and shiny while mine didn't look as good in my eyes.

I should really just take a shower and wash anything he touched off of me. I looked down at myself seeing a bulge formed in my pants.

Shit better take care of that to. It pissed me off how he was like a drug to me almost everything he did and touched made me want more and more. But he didn't feel the same way about me so I better get over him soon or he'll be the death of me.

"Never have I ever" Asher said playfully

"I'm not playing this game" I snapped without looking at him

"Oh come on"

Asher finally came up to our room around midnight and was thoughtful enough to bring me food, I didn't even realize how hungry I was till I bit into the mash potatoes with ozzing country gravy Asher continued to pester me into playing (never have I ever) game as I ate.

"Never have I ever cuddled with big tits"

I glared at him.

"Seriously getting sexual already"

He shrugged and laughed this dude was going to ruin my food.

"I've been meaning to ask you did something happen between you and Caden"

"No why do you ask"

"He just seems off and he looked awful hurt and his hair was a mess as if you two were wrestling or something"

I felt my face heat up.

"Nothing I can think of it is Arcade after all" Asher nodded.

"That's true"

How easy he was to convince just like an innocent child.

"Did you know there are over thirteen hundred Magic havens in the world" he told me getting excited. I shook my head I did not know that and I didn't really care right now either.

"Yeah they all have their own names to after Japanese numbers ours is called juu-san cause it was the thirteenth one built since the existence of the magic King".

I gotta say I was surprised he actually learned something usually he didn't pay attention to anything unless there was a pretty girl involved.

"Uh-huh and who did you learn this from"

"That sexy blue haired girl that Arcade was with"

"Really"

"Yeah pretty sure I could get her as my side chick" he said proudly.

"You don't even have a main chick and I highly doubt that cause she seems to be into Arcade right now" I replied sounding more disappointed then I wanted too.

Asher stuck a finger in my potatoes and licked it off a confused look on his face. If he ever figured out I am in love with Cade he would never let me live it down. I didn't talk about girls much in fact neither did Arcade but Asher was a lover of any women who had big boobs.

"Yeah but he's not into her" he said continuing to lick his finger all the way down to his palm "I thought if anyone could see that it would be you".

I wanted to laugh cause the sight I saw with his arms around her waist and his head bent down to her level her lips centimeters from touching his ear looked like a pretty into her moment. Before I could actually respond our door suddenly burst open and a man with pink hair stood there a frantic look on his face.

"Asher you need to come now you too" he pointed at me.

"Who the hell are you?" I snapped.

"That's Barrett great guy when he actually knocks" Asher said sarcastically and stood up from his bed.

"What seems to be the problem that can't be solved without us"

Barrett frowned with the look of animosity in his eyes.

"Get over yourself man two magic havens just got attacked by some mages at the same time and we are to gather in the training room to be debrief on how to prepare cause word is we're next" I stood up quickly anything else that was on my mind disappeared this was more important right now. It has been ages since any mage's had made an appearance sure there had been rumors of them being spotted throughout the last ten years but nothing ever came of it. Mage's got there name because they gain there magic power from a cult resources while we pulled out power from the earth called mana. It was said that after the death of the Magic King strange magic users rose out of nowhere and challenged the ones who used mana. We won of course and since then there has been various fights throughout the years till they completely disappeared off the map more then thirty years ago. What caused them to reappear I guess I would find out but what could we do against occult magic users? We haven't even been taught combat training since we got here except for what we learned at our homes and I can say for myself I didn't learn much with my telekinesis power and neither did Arcade or Asher with his water power. I pulled myself back to the here and now and rushed out the door following Asher and the Barrett dude. After racing down the hallway and stairs we made it into the training room where a man tall and skinny with dark hair was waiting to address us. There wasn't many of us there just the ones I came in the bus with. He raised his hand to quiet the room and began speaking in a surprisingly deep voice.

" I'm sure it has come to your attention that the mages have attacked two different havens at the same time. If your wondering why they're intentions are still unknown. However me and the president of this Haven have high doubts that they will attack any other ones for a while" he sniffed and rub his nose.

"What makes you so sure" a blond hair boy yelled from the group.

"If your wrong and they attack we won't be able to fight them off we haven't even started training yet" murmurs of agreement went through the group.

"Oh hush damn it" I suddenly snapped catching myself by surprised, everyone turned to me. Well no turning back now.

"Don't you see by now the mages know all the havens have been alerted so they'll know they put extra security so they'll back off we'll be fine you'll see"

No one said a word but turned back to the skinny man addressing us. He cleared his throat in a unmannerly way.

"The young man is right" he pointed at me. "Thank you"

"Excuse me" Asher rose his hand in front of me. "What about class B are they being debriefed on this as well?"

I frowned Arcade was in Class B but so was that crazy blue haired bitch that was all over him.

"Yes they are" the man answered and continued giving orders. I leaned in close to Asher

"Did you ask that for Arcade's sake of that bitch your obsessed with?"

"Arcade for sure" a smile appeared on his face.

"Yeah right you just wanted to know about Hannah"

"Yeah so what" he whispered. What do you hate or something? What she do to you?"

I didn't give him the satisfaction of an answer as I went back to listening to what the man had to say.

"And finally because of the recent turn of events we will be starting training earlier then planned as in tomorrow so get a good night's sleep your gonna need it"

We idiotically continued standing there unsure what to do till he fluttered his hands in a go away type wave meaning we were dismissed. We filed out of the room one by one up to our rooms. In bed I asked Asher where in the building class B since Arcade and I didn't get that far in conversation. He said it was in the middle of the building but didn't really know since he hasn't been there yet. But this place was like three castles built into one gigantic ass building.

"You know I really did want to know about Arcade to" Asher said softly

"I know" I lifted my head to look over where he laid

"Goodnight"

"Mmm night.
