Chapter 1: New Face, Old Crowd
The tram seemed to take baby steps towards its destination within his mind, "Geeze.. can't this thing move any faster?" The young mage sighed to himself, he glanced his eyes about; when finally reaching it's destination, he stepped out of the tram, carrying his side bag along with him, hanging on his right shoulder, both his hands in his pockets.
He wore a red T-shirt with a black hoodie over it, the zip on it was down leaving the jumper open. The sleeves of his jumper were pushed up past his elbows, revealing his forearms, his black jeans were torn near the bottom, and his shoes were black trainers with the letter 'N' on the sides, with him he carried a guitar in it's black case. The sun reflected off the frames of his glasses as he looked at the sight in front of him.
This is Mahora!? He gaped at the school, hearing the tram leaving from behind, he swung around, to see its departure.
..Crap.. Well I guess there's no turning back now..
He pulled out the letter he recieved from the academy from his bag, skim reading it, making sure of his destination. The letter read:
"This document hereby states that Isaac Callis Fernan has become a Mage-in-training
from The Magicks Association of the Philippines.
The task of this beholder is to find Mahora Academy and
work there as a Teacher for the next five school years."
"Five... Just perfect; I finally get out of that place and now I'm stuck in school again.." Moaned the black haired youth.
Within the next ten minutes, he found himself walking around campus aimlessly, looking more and more frustrated. "Perfect, I'm lost. Plain and simple, I should really ask someone where the dean's office is..." Isaac wandered another ten minutes and jumped at the sound of the school bell. "Ah.. Crap, the bell here's louder than the one back home.."
"So, you must be Isaac." A rather mature voice came from behind him, causing him to spin on his heels again.
"Great... who's this guy?" Isaac muttered to himself.
"I'm Takahata, I heard a mage would be sent over, but I wasn't expecting another young blood" Takahata explained, eyeing the fifteen year old. "Allow me to escort you to the dean's office." He finished, walking in the opposite direction. Isaac followed cautiously, not knowing what tricks this person might have up his sleeve. Maybe.. this guy's a mage too? If not.. how did he know about me?
The Dean's office was air-conditioned, and was rather spacious, Isaac glanced around, observing what was around him "Just stay in here for a bit and the dean will be right with you." Takahata noted as he left the room. Now, alone in the dean's office not knowing what he's meant to do, sat down in one of the arm chairs casually placed to the side. Man.. this is one hell of a day, I know I slept on the tram, but I'm still tired... Isaac drifted off to sleep in that chair.
Isaac opened his eyes slowly, to find that the dean was at his desk filing some paperwork, he sat up with a grunt. "Ah, so you're awake now" the dean noted.
"Sorry about my drowsiness, I guess I didn't have much of a sleep on the way here.." Isaac apologised. Getting up from the chair and was now standing in front of the desk the dean worked at, leaving his bag and guitar by the chair.
"That's just fine, I think you'll be awake enough for your class"
"Yes si- ...wait, class?" Queried Isaac, looking at the dean with curiousity.
"Yes, you will be teaching chemistry here as part of your magic training, is there a problem?"
"Well.. er- no.." I'm tired as hell.. that's the problem, and you're making me work already you old coot!?
"Great, now I seem to be a little short on accomidations, I feel it is necessary for you to bunk at one of the girls dorm, at least until you find a proper living area for yourself."
"...Bwuh?" The only sound able to come out of his mouth as he thought about what was said.
I'm a guy. Bunking in an all girls school. With girls who I don't even know.
"I had taken the liberty to check your records on your background on your living habits. I believe the room I've chosen for you somewhat matches yourself." The dean shut his eyes and turned and looked out the window. "Your class starts in an hour, I left your supplies and room key in the cupboard. I believe you can find the science lab. But just in case.." A rolled up document was handed to Isaac. He opened it to see that it was a map of Mahora.
...That's it, I'm getting lost again, no map is good enough for this place...
"Thank you sir. I will be going now."
Isaac left the room, bringing his bag and guitar with him.
This is gonna be one hell of a day..
Following the map directions, he finally found the class room and opened the door, the room was slightly bigger than the dean's office, a slight smell of sulphur filled the air
I should leave this door open... Gotta let all this sulphur out, the smell is gonna make me-
At that point he sneezed, causing the papers around the room flutter and blow about the room, the beakers and jars just shook.
Oh boy... I hope no one saw that..
He quickly picked up the scattered papers and placed them on the desk at the front of the class, he opened a nearby cupboard seeing that the room key, first aid kit, and a teacher's guide sat on the top shelf, he took the room key and teacher's guide and looked at the clock.
I got about... twenty minutes 'till my students get here.. I hope this book is useful
He flipped the book open to the first page, it was a sort of class list, pictures of the students and their names underneath. That was when he noticed something suspicious.
Wait.. there're no guys in this thing... D-does that mean..?
Just then the school bell rang and his suspicions were confirmed as he saw that the entire class consisted of girls. ...An all-girl school...
He quickly flipped through the class lists to the current class in the room.
...Class..3-A..?
