Haha I forgot about this... sorry... And this is a short chapter. Sorry!

Another death. Surprising right? By the next day, our new teacher seemed calmer, but he still kept a very close eye on me and Zelda, mostly on Zelda, but on me too. Then at lunch, we were gathered around a table when there was a scream and Karane looked horrified pointing to professor Horwell lying dead on the ground. So the rest of the day we were locked in our rooms.

To be honest, I would rather be in class than starved in my own room. Someone thought the food was poisoned so all food was confiscated. We wont eat until tomorrow, maybe tonight if we're lucky.

"Hey!" A whisper caused me to look out my window. Sitting up from my bed I ran over to the window and opened it seeing Zelda.

"What are you doing out?" I asked. I worry for her sometimes, just because she likes sneaking off and sometimes pushing me off of things.

"Well, my dad does run this place. Come on, you're with me! Nothing is going to happen." Zelda reached up and grabbed my hand forcing me out with her.

"Wait! What if we get caught-?"

"Nothing will happen! Who is going to catch us? No one is in the skies, even the bazaar is closed! Come on! Or do you not have the courage?" Zelda taunted. I knew she was trying to aggravate me, but that didn't stop me from defending myself.

"Hey! I am courageous! Just wait, one small Remlit comes I will drop kick it off the island!" To be honest, I was hoping this would impress her, but it didn't. And to be honest, if a Remlit did come along and attack us, I'd most likely crap myself. Those things are freaky.

"You'd really throw a poor defenseless Remlit off the island?" She glared and crossed her arms. "How would you like it if I threw you off the island?"

"Okay, first of all, you have thrown me off the island, many times even! And they can fly!" I object as we were making our way to the cave under the waterfall.

"That is still very mean!" She growls. I sigh in frustration.

"I really don't get you some days. One minute, your just a good teenage girl, the next you're a dare devil." I really need help when trying to understand girls.

"Okay, listen here. You're the one talking about throwing a Remlit of the island!"

"And you're the one who's always throwing me off of something with an edge!" I retort.

"Well maybe one day, you'll be smart enough not to come back." She crosses her arms and turns away. My heart crumples away until there's just a lump of dust left. My eyes sting from the tears forming. She just basically said she wished I would die.

"Well fine. Maybe I'll just leave you and your precious island alone." I turn out of the cave and go back to my room. I remember looking at the lake and seeing the reflection of Zelda's hurt face. Maybe I will go. She wont miss me. In fact, after dinner, I'm going to go to another island somewhere.


My bag was swung over my shoulder, my regular clothes on instead of the knight's uniform. I run my fingers through my hair before looking back through my cabinets. Empty. I threw away a lot of junk, gave Karane the brush I was going to give to Zelda for her birthday, (Which was in a month,) and I even gave Groose something special.

Glad I wont be around when he opens that card I left him on his bed. The sun is still up, the loftwings are out. Here's my chance. No one is really allowed outside yet, but they can now wander the academy. Zelda's right next to the door, she'll defiantly see this. She's talking to Groose. Joy.

Storming past them, I see Zelda head for me which makes me speed up my pace.

"Wait!" She calls out. I don't stop. Why would I want to stop for her anymore? Groose can have her because I'm leaving. She sees the chase is pointless and stops following me. I go to the cave where I guess we broke up. A chill goes down my spine.

"Going somewhere?" Busted. That's what I am. I really don't hope its the stupid new teacher. Sure enough, it is.

"Yeah, away from here." I reply coldly. This makes him chuckle.

"No no no, you can't leave." He shakes his head, a smile gracing his white lips.

"Watch me." I reply and turn around to jump off only to have five fingers pull me back.

"You're ruining my plans hero. Maybe I should kill you now." He hums in my ear. "But what would be the fun in that?" I'm shocked. I know he's the one doing the killing, but no one would believe me. I mean, I haven't actually seen him kill anyone. Yet.

He spins me around and grabs my bag from my shoulder looking through everything.

"Hey! Get out of that!" I go to get my things back but he pulls out a picture of Zelda and I. That picture was taken when we were like eight. Her mother was still alive and was almost like a mother to me. Zelda's hair was pulled back into a braid; her gorgeous eyes were still so dazzling.

"Running away hmm? Is it jealousy? Fear perhaps or maybe even desire." The weird man examines the picture.

"Why are you so interested about me?" I ask.

"Because! You, my dear boy, are the reason I came to this island! After hearing about you, the kind of person you were, I knew you must know the one I want, and you do. She and this island will be gone by Friday." He grins evilly. Today is Monday. What is this psycho planning? "Well, Headmaster Geapora will be pleased to know you were out. Goodbye Skychild." And with that, he pushes me off the island.
