ILLUSION 01: Forever x Perseverance x Change


A sound soul dwells within a sound mind and a sound body…

Step.

Step.

Step.

At the middle of the long (emphasis on the long) stairway leading to Shibusen, there is a girl who had no plans of tiring herself out. It was a beautiful sunny day and also the first day of classes. The brunette kept on the relaxed attitude while going up the staircase that looks like it will take forever to finish.

Suria Casper, that is her name.

She just kept on going, even unaware of the time she's left before the bell rings. There were also students besides her going up the staircase. The difference is either they were panicking and running up on it or they had their friends chit-chatting with them while they went up.

Being a shy one, Suria didn't make enough friends during her childhood. She was labelled as someone who looks "too cool or scary to be approached" or "a person who minds her own business", in short, an introvert. But in truth, she really wanted to be friends with them and play together just like all the other children do. That's why, starting from now on, she decided to change so that she could make friends, although she doesn't know how to. She'll figure a way how, she thought.

The heat from the sun was not helping her climb up the staircase. It was making her energy drop lower than before she even started climbing. Suria stopped for a while to rest and then, her peaceful moment was ruined by two persons who seemed to be racing each other to the top of the stairway. Her hair was even blown off by the wind that the 2 persons caused by running up, with a speed so fast. So fast, all she could see was a sudden distort of lighting. Wait, does that even make sense? No? Well, I couldn't think of how to explain it so there it is. She could only hear the faint sound of their voices as they passed by her, not even knowing she was there at all.

"I'm almost there!" the voice shouted while laughing hysterically like a crazy dude.

"Come back here, you little - !" the other voice replied.

Seriously, why do they have such energy on mornings? Suria lazily thought. She didn't like the thought of waking up or being woken up at the time she wasn't supposed to wake up, plus all those alarm clocks. The thought of it made her energy even lazier than before. This was not a good way to start the day, and so she decided to just hurry up the staircase to finish this problem of hers, even if it meant her red plaid skirt flying up and down for everyone to see what's underneath 'cause she's taken care of that problem. Black knee-length leggings? Check.


A/N:

So that's the end of Chapter 1! Sorry for the weird ending by the way... and for the short chapter...
It's my first time writing a 3rd POV story so sorry for the suckish writing :P

And if you're guessing that the two characters with unannounced names racing to the top of the stairway are part of the Spartoi's kids, then... you're RIGHT! :D
Whose kids do you think those 2 are? ^-^
