Chapter 1
19 October 1928
13 years after the incidents with Yuri's darkness and his battles at the western front, he and his love, Alice Hyuga, have settled down with there son Kain Hyuga in the quiet French village of Domremy. Thanks to Roger Bacons never-ageing droplets, Yuri and Alice will never age and will keep on living if they successfully survive from getting shot, stabbed ect. There son is now older and is now able to speak for himself. But as Yuri's masks warned him, his son is more dangerous then he seems...
"Kain sweetheart! Time to get up!"
"Yes mum!"
Kain Albert Hyuga awoke with a yawn as his mother called him from the downstairs kitchen. He scratched his ruffled brown hair with his left hand and gave his mum the call that he was awake. He jumped out of his single bed and got dressed into his usual clothes. His clothes where simple, black jeans with matching boots, armoured chest plate with a armoured gauntlet for the right arm. Kain went to the window and opened it. He poked his head out to smell the crisp fresh air. He looked down to see his father standing outside, also taking in the air.
"Yo dad!"
Kain called down to his father. His father turned around to look up at him and smiled.
"Morning Kain, hows the world feel today?"
"Crisp. But cool, sure it'll lighten up by the end of the day."
Kain answered his father. He then closed the window and made his way to the door. He stopped and for a split second and turned to his right to see a bag hanging on a handle. He clicked his fingers and grabbed it. He then opened the door and walked downstairs. The hallways were painted light blue with pictures decorating the walls. They all went in order of year, it could be noticed by the transformation of Kain from a baby into a growing teenager. Kain slid down the banister stairs and jumped into the kitchen. It wasn't that much, just a simple stove and all the things you would find in a ordinary kitchen. His mother, who he was now as tall as, turned around to face him with a smile.
"Good morning Kain."
She smiled at him with glee. He smiled back with the same glee.
"Morning mum. Got anything interesting to do for the day?"
"If you call washing interesting then yeah."
Kain laughed at his mothers answer, he then walked to the kitchen side and pulled a bowl and a box of cereal out of the cupboard. He then opened the box of cereal and poured some in the bowl. He then grabbed some milk from the fridge beside him and poured some in the bowl.
"At least I've got your father helping out."
Alice giggled and walked out of the kitchen to the front door, she exited to go to Yuri, her husband. Kain grinned as he saw them through the window. He went out into the dining room and sat at the table, where he ate his breakfast. There was a newspaper on the table, he picked it up to see the bold headline say: Rise of new party in Germany is feared among many! Kain shrugged and chucked the paper back down. Politics didn't mean much to him. After he finished his bowl he took it back to the kitchen and placed it on the side.
Kain chucked his bag back on him and walked outside. Taking another breath of the crisp, Autumn air, Kain made his way to school. His mother stopped him for a quick kiss on the cheek before letting him go. His father patted him on the back. The school was newly built. Yuri and the boys built it after returning from the war, along with many other things such as a pub, more houses and a stable for the horses. The school, with firmly built interior walls, provided not just warmth; but protection.
Kain, picking up a stick, walked down the woodland lanes towards the school. He scraped the stick against the stone wall, that was formed by nature. The sounds cut in and out, with some crunches and clacking coming in and out, Kain found a beat in it all. The image of the school now became more clear in front of him as he entered the iron gates of the spell bounded named Émigré Academy. Kain grew a smile as he walked past the playing and chattering kids in the courtyard, waiting to enter the huge building that stood as high as the church in the central village, except the school was more outstanding and robust. Pushing past the vast crowds of children, Kain found his way to the school wall, he then turned around and leaned against it. Lowering his head.
"Kain!"
Kain heard a shout from in front of him. He lifted his head to see a boy, the same age as him, but a bit more chubby around the face. His clothes, unlike the armoured shell of Kain's, were more formal and casual. They didn't seem to fit him perfectly, as the blue cloth of his shirt dangled in front of him as he ran. His brown trousers, which were very good at hiding the mud stains that appeared the day before after PE, would catch his boots as he ran; making him stumble at the worst of times. The boy finally came to Kain's spot, panting from the running he had just done. He didn't seem the most healthy out of all the kids. Kain laughed and patted the boy on the back, and with one hard hit, made him fall to the ground. Kain grabbed him by his free cloth of his blue shirt and picked him up.
"Angus dude, hows the day treating you?"
Kain asked the boy with a smile. Angus took a stretch then stood more upright, trying to meet Kain straight in the eye, but he was only two inches short of doing so, and he didn't want to stand on his toes, because then he would just fall straight back down again. The redhead shook his head sternly, as if to wipe out some thoughts that were currently in his head.
"Do you have any idea where Maria is?"
Angus spoke with a heavy Scottish accent. Him and his parents moved from Scotland after a few family disputes after the war that aren't really talked about any more, but sometimes find there way into a conversation that goes along the same lines. Kain shook his head at his friends question.
"No I don't know where your girl is, she's usually here by now..."
Kain placed his chin between his thumb and first finger. The girl called Maria in question, was a dark haired girl with dark green eyes. She was a girl of high potential in the school as her mother would make it possible she did well. Most of the time Maria speaks formal and calm, not showing a hint of difference in her voice, which could also be referred to as monotone. But when it comes to the days when education is of no importance, namely Saturday and Sunday, she talks more out loudly and isn't afraid to speak in the tone of her current attitude, if that is being angry or sad. She horse rides generally, and thanks to the stables built by Yuri and the lads, also referred to as 'The Domremy Regiment', she can go horse riding almost every day unless something of general importance pops up.
"I shouldn't worry anyway, she may be ill or just pulled out for a reason."
Kain placed a hand on Angus's shoulder, Angus smiled but quickly shook it off. He then turned around the face the entrance, waiting for Maria, or as she was nicknamed 'Cat Eyes' thanks to her green eyes, that were like a split green sapphire that shone from any distance; just like cats eyes. Kain shook his head in annoyance and lent back again against the wall. Taking a coin from his pocket, he flicked it up in the air and caught it in his hands again.
"Heads or Tails?"
"What?"
Angus turned around to face his mate who was grinned with his usual grin that in some cases got him into trouble, depending what grounds he was on. Angus gave a look of disturbance but then finally answered.
"Tails..."
"Alright then, if you have got this right, I bet you Maria will walk through that gate..."
Kain showed the coin and Tails was up. Angus then turned to face the gate with a gasp to see the girl Maria walk through the gate. He then turned to face Kain again, who had grown a bigger smile.
"Seems to be your lucky day."
Kain then chucked Angus the coin, who caught it with good reflexes. Kain chuckled and walked off. Angus watched him leave and then took a quick glimpse at both sides of the coin, they were both tails. He then looked up again in the direction Kain walked. His hand dropped to his side and Angus began to grow a wide grin. He then turned around to see the girl known as Maria at his face.
"Hi Ninja!"
Maria gave Angus a tight hug. His nickname was 'Ninja' thanks to his good reflexes and quick eyes that scanned the environment quickly, giving him the upper hand in finding hidden objects. That's why he always teamed up with Kain on the school Easter hunt, they always got the eggs first. But due to being good sports, they let the Foundation kids, in other words kids under the age of 5, take some of there eggs once they found them.
"Hello there Maria, looking lovely as always I see..."
Angus gave a sheepish smile to his teenage love partner, who looked back with her green eyes, that made him look forward to when he was older and he could lure her into the bedroom. She smiled back and lightly smacked him on the chest, which made him grunt just that little bit.
"Stop it you!"
She then took him by the hand, making him go red, which made her go even brighter. Maria opened her mouth to speak again, but a heavy sounding church bell began to strike, signalling the start of school. She looked up at Angus and tugged his arm, she then ran quickly to the centre of the courtyard, where everyone was lining up into there years or as some people prefer it classes. Angus followed behind hastily, trying to keep up with Maria's speed, which always seemed to outmatch anyone else's. They squeezed themselves into there year line of Year 9, sitting themselves right behind Kain, who looked back at them with a grin and a slight chuckle as Angus almost slipped on the cold tarmac and landed hardly. There was then one final strike from the bell that brought the kids sounds of laughter and talked to a grinding halt as a man stepped out of the Academy. He quickly made a move to straighten his tie and wiped his right brow of the morning sweat that came from the top of his temple.
"Good Morning students..."
"Good Morning Mr. Grenville"
The students replied loudly to the man known as Mr. Grenville to the students. Frasier Grenville was the headmaster of Émigré Academy and quite frankly proud of it. His appearance showed him as a very rich Frenchmen. In which fact he was. He was and still is a business tycoon in the capital of Paris, owning up to 20 clothing industry houses at a time, and over 100,000 spread across France and another 500,000 across the world. With the 'Grenville Boutique' franchise still growing and his business tax income, Mr. Grenville was making over 1 million Euros a week. His appearance in Domremy was very sudden, he showed up on the bridge wearing his custom made jacket and his leather suitcase. His reason for coming was the opening of the school that he found out from the papers.
Why he wanted to be headmaster was still unknown to the residents, but with his many degrees in English, Mathematics, Science and Design Technology the adults of the village couldn't ignore him. Upon becoming headmaster he showed a strong role, convincing the adults even more that he was fit for the job. However, he showed a very heavy dislike of the Hyuga family. He found there child Kain too smart and powerful for his own good, the father Yuri too ambitious and outstanding, and the mother Alice he knew from his time at school, when she refused to go to the school ball with him because she found him too spiteful and ignorant. Mr. Grenville walked down the stone steps into the courtyard. He then began to pace through the years whilst making his speech.
"Students, I would like to remind you quickly of the coming things this Autumn term. First for the Foundation and years one and two, your collage display has been coming on very well and is soon coming to its end and I shall be happy to see it put up in the grand hall once its done. Years three, four and five I would like to say well done for..."
Mr. Grenville's speech began to fade away in Kain's mind as it began to drift off to other things of more importance to him then anything else. Such as his family and his Harmonixer ability that has been passed down his family line for generations. But even more his magic ability that he gained from his mother, but he has mastered both white and dark magic thanks to Roger Bacons teachings. Thinking of Roger, he never seemed that fond of Kain somehow, and why he didn't quite know.
"...And year nine."
Mr. Grenville spoke right in Kain's face, bringing him out of his thoughts. Kain looked to Mr. Grenville who gave him a stubborn look and went back into his speech, Kain snickered.
"Your task shall be a new one this term, as in remembrance of the Great War you are to research on it, asking your parents may be a good idea, and you shall then write a eight page exam about it. Anyone who fails to complete this task will find themselves being placed in a cold room and made to write the exam out and they are not allowed to leave until they finish..."
Mr. Grenville grew a sadistic grin as he walked back to the entrance of the school and turned to face all the students. He looked to both sides then clapped his hands together once, making the students stand to attention.
"Now you can all enter and get ready for your first class."
He then stood away from the entrance so the years could enter in line order. As Kain's year entered Mr. Grenville gave him another stubborn look, Kain ignored it this time. He made his way to his first lesson; PE. Angus had to split up from Maria because even though they had the same lessons, the sexes were split for PE. Kain and Angus found there way to the changing rooms and got changed, well, Kain didn't have to. His clothes where specially designed for most types of activity's and any type of weather. There teacher entered and blew his whistle, grabbing there attention.
"Alright lads, today where playing a good old game of football seeing as we as a group have cleared all the necessary sports for this first week of the term. Once your ready I want you to make your way down to the field through the forest with some light jogging just to warm your legs up."
The teacher then exited without saying anything more. Kain quickly got out of the changing rooms and started jogging through the forest towards the playing fields that the school had bought of the farmers about a year ago, giving the kids more space to do PE. The other boys were about 15 minutes behind, all puffing once they came to the fields. Kain realised that once again they didn't understand the meaning of 'light jogging'. The lesson was fun and pretty quick, the score went like this:
Team 1[Capitan: Kain]: 2
Team 2[Capitan: Joseph]: 2
Not everyone was happy with the outcome, but Kain didn't care much. He was happy that his team pulled through and unlike most others, didn't complain at the referees decisions. The heading back trip was pretty quick as well, but once again the boys didn't understand the meaning of 'light jogging'. Kain then had a quick cold shower which the small cubicle showers at the school provided and he made his way to his next class along with Angus, the day had fully begun. Next lesson was Mathematics, which Kain was pretty fond of as he had learnt much from the Italian astronomer Galileo's mathematical theory of motion. Kain had by far already impressed his maths teacher, already figuring equations like this in year 4:
(x + 1) ^2 = 5x ^2 + x + 1
Thanks to Galileo and Roger's teachings, Kain was able to crack many mathematical equations that have been put in his way by the school, for him getting easier and easier every time. Once maths was over it came to break, which only lasted 15 minutes. After that came English, where Kain wrote with a fine hand like his mothers. Then came languages, were in which he had chosen to learn Arabic. Then it was lunch, where Kain ate what his mum had stuck into his bag before he left; sausage sandwich.
After that was the final lesson of the day; History. However, Kain was pulled out half-way through by the headmaster. Kain followed Mr. Grenville to his office and sat down on the chair he was shown.
"Master Hyuga, I am going to cut this straight..."
Mr. Grenville sat in his chair and gave Kain a stern look, Kain raised an eyebrow. Mr. Grenville grunted in annoyance.
"...Your expelled."
Kain's jaw dropped heavily, he had been surprised by many things in his life but this was one of the most surprising so far.
"What the--"
"Go now!"
Mr. Grenville's finger swiftly pointed towards the door, Kain shot up and left, muttering under his breath. Being expelled was the last thing he expected, but he soon shook it off when he came to the door of his house. He drew a heavy sigh and walked in, quietly closing the door behind him. He was hoping nobody would spot him, but it was too late.
"What are you doing back so early?"
Kain turned to face his mum in the kitchen doorway with a straight face. He sighed and looked away before answering.
"Been expelled, don't know why and to be honest I can't really care any less..."
Kain then made his way upstairs without listening to his mother any more. She stood there silently for a few seconds before making her way quickly to the back garden. She came to meet Yuri who was digging away at the soil, planting some new plants that were on his 'to do list'. He looked back at his wife and smiled, she gave a completely different face. Yuri raised an eyebrow.
"What's wrong sweetheart?"
"It's Kain. The school has expelled him for no reason."
Yuri took a deep breath and placed the shovel on the ground, chucking the gardening gloves to the ground also. He then made his way indoors and was about to exit, Alice stopped him.
"Where are you going?"
"I'm going to have a word with that rich asshole Mr. Grenville."
Yuri answered his wife as he tried to get past. She stood in his way a little more.
"Don't Yuri..."
As much as Alice wanted to do the same thing as Yuri wanted to do she wasn't going to let him. She didn't want this family to have a bad appearance. Yuri sighed and fell back onto the stairs, landing on his bottom.
"Fine. I guess we can go with his other option..."
"What's that?"
Alice questioned Yuri. He looked up at her.
"Margarete and Keith's request..."
