Chereads / The Winged Executer / Chapter 2 - Hilian Academy

Chapter 2 - Hilian Academy

 I heard the crackling of a fire as I struggled to get my eyelids in control and lift them up. The last thing I remembered was hearing a big, loud BOOM before everything went dark. Wait had I blacked at? No I can't have blacked out! Where was I? With fear I lifted my eyelids in order to know I was safe and was started by the bright, smiling face that was so closed to my face and greeted me with a "Hellooooooo" I scooted backwards only to bump into a wooden bed frame. The beaming face was leaning to look at me like I had been dead from a chair beside the bed I was in. I took a closer look and I screamed sliding to the opposite side of the bed he was near, he had long ears just like elves I've seen in movies and read in books. He also had wings, clear wings just like a Fairy. A Fairy! That was what the trolls said but it sounded different like a "Fearie!" I furiously started rubbing my eyes hoping it was nothing but a dream.

 He busted out laughing and was coming to my direction. I put my hand out in a defending position but that made him go into a full blown laughter stopping when seeing my confused face but giggling now and then.

 "What are you?" I said trying to keep my voice from shaking.

 "Me?" He asked like I've said something foolish.

 "Yes, you."

 "Oh, me. I'm a…" he paused for drama then said "I'm a Fearie!"

 My suspensions had been confound I started searching the room for possible means of escape. The room had the size of a master bedroom. The bed was in the middle of the room with a window on the right to the room, the curtain was an elegant red velvet color a study table beside the window with no books. To the left of the room was a fireplace. So that's where the fire noise was coming from. To the end of the room was a wardrobe with a crispy brown color. Other than that there was no door! No means of escape!

 I looked back at where he was and he wasn't there. I quickly stood up only to bump into him.

 "Ouch!" He said in pain "Didn't you see me?"

 "You were there a second ago" I said pointing at the bed. "And now you're not. How am I supposed to know you were there?"

 "Your uniform's in the wardrobe get changed. I'd be back in 15 minutes. He said firmly and started walking towards the wall.

"Where are you going?" I said walking after him. Just as a door appeared in the wall and he walked out through the door, I took up pace but the wall soon disappeared.

 What the hell just happened? I started searching the wall for any hidden door but it wasn't there. It's like the door just appeared from the blue. I have to play along in order to find out what happening, rushed for the wardrobe and got the uniform out. It was a white long-sleeve, a blue tie, black skirt, blazer, a comfortable solid shoe and a pair of white socks. I slid the clothes on and waited on the bed. I almost forgot about my wounds. They still hurt but they had been bandaged, I think by that Fearie who was in the room. The thought of fearies being real, ran shiver down my spine.

 He came back through the door and I instantly stood up from the bed. He had the beaming face again.

 "Follow me." He said

 I followed him out of the room to a very long hallway with doors. And I was in room 72.The hallway was empty and quite, I started to wonder if any one lives in these rooms.

 "Do people live here?" I asked trying to catch up with him.

 "No. Fearies do." 

 "Why's it so silent?"

 "Because there all in the academy."

 "What academy?" He didn't reply we were out of the building full of silent hallways and into a garden full of trees and flowers I've never seen before. We were walking in the garden for what seem like ages, with no buildings in view until we saw a large building held together with vines. Flowers decorated the surface.

 "Hilian Academy" He finally said heading towards the building
