Prologue: A Place of Imagination, A Palace of Despair III
The darkness still covered the night, but flickers of a lantern lighted their way. Blake the Inventor held the lantern tightly, tried to make it avoid the gust of wind. Behind him, there was a long brown-haired girl with glasses that walked slowly, Alyssa the Paranormalist. And behind her, there was blond boy that seemed a bit tired, Allen the Wondelander.
"I can't give up but… I am so tired…" Allen breathed aloud as almost crouched down.
"Blake, Allen already feels tired," Alyssa reported to the guy in front of her.
"But, the palace is nearby, beat you tiredness," Blake pointed to the big palace which only some feet left.
"O-Okay," Allen stood up and walked again. Blake smiled a bit and slower his walk. And Alyssa still felt fresh and could walk more.
They stood up on the big gate of the palace that was being their destination. The gate was so big, almost like six-seven normal houses' floors, and big river that had crocodiles inside.
"How did we enter anyway?" Allen looked to the gate deeply.
"Knock it," Alyssa suggested.
"Of course not, do you want that crocodiles eat you?" Blake smiled widely, considering it as joke.
"I am not joking, if it is what you are thinking," Alyssa snapped Blake's smile. "Just we need something to knock it,"
"Of course, Madam," Blake smiled widely. "Let me do that," Blake took the gun from his jacket's pocket. He aimed his gun to the door, and fired it. In some splits of a second, the bullet hit the door, and magically the gate opened, sending another strong gust of wind that turned the fire in the lantern off.
"Owh, crap the light's off," Blake snapped, but with a slight wide smile.
"And the corridor is so dark," Alyssa added. "How do we see through?"
"Maybe that guy could do," Allen said as pointing to the shadowy figure. When Blake noticed, he readied himself by holding his gun behind his jacket. Something was coming was a demonic (?) figure with bee's wings and black-yellow figure with big eyes like an insect, a crown on its head and held a jar of honey.
"Pleace don't cyoot me (Please don't shoot me)! I will do anytying I can do!" that figure said as crouching down, asking for forgiveness.
"Who are you, Mister Crowned Bee?" Allen asked, as tilting his head and came closer to its.
"Yuyuyu, I am Queen Bee, oh and note that I am a gentleman," Queen Bee introduced himself. Well we couldn't say that he was a he or she.
Blake sweat-dropped, and almost opened his mouth wide. How could a gentleman have "Queen Bee" name?
"Yuyuyu, are you all enrolled in yere? I could lead you to the main yall," Queen Bee offered a help. "Juct don't kill me anytime you could!"
"Sure, just what happened?" Alyssa asked.
"Yuyuyu, you are in Pyantacy Academy," Queen Bee explained. "There ic not anytying wrong wity tyat,"
"There is Mister Queen Bee, why did we wake up outside?" Blake explained with smile.
"YUYUYU! Ty-Ty-Tyat ic wyy I cence tyat someone broke tye barrier!" Queen Bee murmured with so many sweat-drops, feeling uneasy. "At- At any rate, I will ancwer your quection,"
"Then answer," Alyssa added.
"Yuyuyu! But-but! O-Okay, but pleace follow me firct, and carry tyic!" Queen Bee said as moving his hand fast, and making three honey's drops from his hand on fire. Then, each of the drops surrounded each person there. "It will yelp you all to ligyt the way," then Queen Bee flew, like he asked to three of them to follow him.
"Do you feel this is alright? It is creepy, that Queen Bee" Alyssa whispered to Blake by came closer to him and lowered her voice.
"As long as he doesn't attack us," Blake whispered back. "Do you stay to call him 'it'?"
"Well, Queen Bee is sounded 'awesome' but… do you know that it is a male or female?" Alyssa answered, whispering him back.
"No, but… at least make him happy is good for adding more allies," Blake smiled thinly.
"Everyone, tyic ic tye main yall, wyere maybe all of the ctudentc ctayed yere," Queen Bee pointed to a big door that made from woods with brownish paint, and the red carpet was on the floor, leading them to that door. Queen Bee opened the door slowly. And seven pairs of eye fell too them.
The door opened, and the lights of the candles lighted the room. Fancy red sofas were in that room, rowed in patterned place, with tables that carved professionally that had expensive teapots and teacups on the luxury tables. Not that's all, seven elite students with "Super High School Level" title, which of course, had the highest skill in their age.
"KYAAAAAAAAAA! AN INSECT!" a voice that came from Blake's behind screamed, but he was unfamiliar with that voice. Then a falling sound could be heard, and Blake looked to his back. There was an unfamiliar wavy light brown-haired girl with grey T-Shirt underneath orange jacket and checkered orange-black skirt with grey stocking and black sneakers. She was unconscious, maybe because Queen Bee's existence.
"Yuyuyu! Tyere ic comeone wyo fainted!" Queen Bee shouted. "Get a yelp!"
A blonde with blue streaks-haired girl and a long-haired girl that styled to twin pigtails which newly appeared were bringing that fainted girl to nearby sofa and laying down that girl.
"Lys-nee!" the ebony black-haired that reached her mid-back girl ran to that fainted girl.
"Let yer rect, sye muct be awaken in some minutec," Queen Bee cheered to them.
"But! You are the one who made Lys-nee surprised and fainted!" the ebony black-haired girl exclaimed.
"YUYUUUUU! Queen Bee never doec anytying like tyat!" Queen Bee sobbed. "Yuyuuuuu! Queen Bee ic co cad,"
"Queen Bee is your name?" the blond girl with some blue streaks on her hair said.
"Yuyuyu! Tyat ic rigyt! This gentle man's name is Queen Bee!" without his usual pronounce when every time he talked, Queen Bee introduced himself, with manly voice.
The boy with grey hair and dark eyes beside Blake that might be appeared with those girls just sweat-dropped, and before Blake could notice it, he talked to him.
"Is that 'Queen Bee' your friend?" the grey-haired boy asked slowly.
"We just meet minutes ago, not a long history though," Blake answered, slowly smiled in irritation. Not to that grey haired boy, but to Queen Bee. "Oh and my name is Blake Archer, SHSL Inventor,"
"Blake Archer? Never hear about that until now," that grey haired man mumbled. "Oh well, my name is Akaitori Hai,"
AKAITORI HAI
SUPER HIGH SCHOOL LEVEL PHOENIX
"You were born to be phoenix, right?" Blake asked. "That's actually awesome, to could live for eternity,"
"Well," Akaitori sighed. "Phoenix could be an eternity, just…" Akaitori stopped. "Never mind,"
"Sorry if it hurts," Blake apologized.
"No, it doesn't hurt and never hurts," Akaitori smiled a bit. "Oh and who are they, which came with you?"
"Oh…" Blake looked to Alyssa and Allen which were silent.
"I am Alyssa Marquez," Alyssa introduced herself.
"Oh and me!" Allen raised his hand. "I am Allen Brown, a wonderlander!"
"You are Akaitori Hai, right?" Allen asked. "You are a phoenix! I never meet for a real deal!"
"Well, people thought me that I am not the 'real deal' of phoenix," Akaitori simply answered.
"I think we must check that girl," Blake said as coming closer to the sofa that the fainted girl on the sofa. Alyssa, Allen, and Akaitori followed him, and Queen Bee stayed near the entrance, afraid that the girl saw him and fainted again.
"Hey, Akaitori" the black-haired Chinese girl called. "Who are they?"
"Oh…" Akaitori tilted his head to the inventor, paranormalist, and wonderlander.
"I'm Blake Archer," Blake introduced.
"Alyssa Marquez," Alyssa introduced.
"I'm Allen Brown, nice to meet you!" Allen introduced happily.
"Nice to meet you too, and I'm Meiling Wang," Meiling introduced slowly.

"I am Pyrokinesis User," Meiling said simply.
"So, you can make some fires, Meiling?" Allen asked curiously.
"Yeah, I could. But I can't show you right now," Meiling answered. "Too much burnable things,"
"But I tyink tyat it wac wrong becauce all tyingc in tyic area anti-magic whicy couldn't got broken," Queen Bee explained.

"Momoko loves to design anything! And I can control puppets!" Momoko showed some of her dolls, which dominated with loli style.
"They are all cute!" Allen giggled like a child, and talked more. Then Blake and the other seemed want to introduce themselves to other.
Blake and Alyssa went to an area with short-blonde boy with monochromatic eyes which the left was red and the right was blue-ish grey, and long black-haired Japanese girl with bright pink eyes.
"Pamburu D. Hemite," that short-blonde guy with monochromatic eyes introduced simply.

"I can control electricity of all fields and it's very fun!" Misaki happily said. "I can make hair stood up!" her hands moved a little, and Alyssa caught a surprise since she felt a sudden shock, and her hair stood up as you did when got a shock.
"Wait! I don't need to get shocked!" Alyssa irritated a bit.
"Well, madam, please repair your hair," Blake joked.
"Don't you get bored with that lame joke?" Alyssa confirmed.
"Of course not, old lady," Blake giggled.
"Sshh…" Alyssa murmured as looking to Blake who joked too much like a snake. Blake ignored her and walked to alien girl that seemed like albino human; female fox spirit (A/N: or Kitsune, if I remember, please tell me if I'm wrong) with white hair, fox ears, and six tails; and male fox spirit with sleek black hair, and ears and tails that had white tips.
"Oh hello! My name is Cora Beckett," that alien albino girl introduced with a gentle smile.

"You are Blake Archer, right?" Cora confirmed. "It's so nice to get a school on earth,"
"Is there any school at there, in space?" Blake asked slowly.
"Of course there is! But, the students are rare in there since all aliens usually works without education, except for humane alien," Cora explained slowly.
"That's so… wow," Blake said, and then he looked to female fox spirit.
"What do you want?" she hissed slowly.
"My name is Blake Archer," Blake introduced himself.
"Get away," that female fox spirit hissed. "I hate males,"
"Okay, I will get away if you introduce yourself first," Blake said stubbornly.
"Fine," that female fox spirit sighed. "Yuzuruhakugame Setsuna,"

"Now, can you, Blakestard go away?" Setsuna said as hissing a little curse. Blake stepped a step back, since he didn't want bla-bla-bla Setsuna the charms maker angered. Then, he came closer to the male fox spirit.
"My name is Tsukiko Yukio, pleasure to meet you!" that male fox spirit introduced himself.
TSUKIKO YUKIO
SUPER HIGH SCHOOL LEVEL GUARDIAN
"How old are you?" Blake asked slowly, afraid to make him mad or somewhat.
"Sixteen in humane form, why?" Tsukiko answered slowly.
"I just thought you are younger," Blake said straightly.
"People always say that, so it won't hurt so much," he explained. "I'm considered as young, even with long life that fox spirit always has,"
"Fantasy is sure very mysterious," Blake murmured to himself, unnoticed. And then, he ended to final two males. There was a brunette with square glasses, a werewolf male with messy brown hair, and
"Oh yeah, introduction," the brunette with square glasses said. "I'm Kaneshiro Akihiko, Demon Summoner,"
KANESHIRO AKIHIKO
SUPER HIGH SCHOOL LEVEL DEMON SUMMONER
"Hmm," Kaneshiro said, as slowly touched Blake's shoulder.
"W-What?" Blake stuttered. He sensed something different.
"Nothing," And then Kaneshiro hid his face. Blake sighed and then looked to the werewolf male.
"What?" that werewolf male hissed.
"Oh, sorry… but can I ask your name?" Blake stuttered a bit, seemed a sharp glare from his eyes.
"Okay, but don't mess up with me," he threatened, in a bad mood. "Urufu Dansei,"

"Okay, don't think about that threat, but don't think too much," Urufu said, which made Blake surprised.
"Oh,okay," Blake replied, didn't know how to reply.
"Well, I think that's enough," Blake said as walking to the fainted girl.
"Umh…" the fainted girl tried to wake up. "Ukh…"
"Queen Bee-chan! It's better that you go away for a while!" Kinoshita said as hushed Queen Bee.
"Roger!" and then, Queen Bee flew.
"Lys-nee! Are you alright?" Kinoshita said as shaking the fainted girl's body.
"Yes, I'm alright!" that girl looked to her environment, which surrounded by people. "Oh, right! Introduction! I'm Eirlys Gweneth or Lys!"
EIRLYS GWENETH
SUPER HIGH SCHOOL LEVEL ALCHEMIST
"Lys, you should go rest," Avalon recommended.
"Okay," and then, she lied down there. Blake and Alyssa discussed a little.
"So, fifteen students with us?" Alyssa said.
"Yeah, I think so," Blake said.
"But!" Kinoshita said as looking to Blake. "There is one left! Swordman-nii!"
"Yu! Kinoshita-san ic rigyt!" Queen Bee agreed. "But, where is he?"
*SNORE*
"Do you hear something, guys?" Urufu said as looking everywhere.
"Where?" Allen said, looking around too.
*SNORE*
"It's from up," Cora said as looking up, and then there was albino boy who was sleeping on the ceiling, facing down.
"Oh my, Swordsman-nii is a ninja!" Kinoshita exclaimed in happiness.
*SNORE*
"Yu! You! Wake up!"Queen Bee shouted.
"Guh…" that albino said as slowly went down, with magic around him, and woke up from sleep. "What do you want?!" he hissed as drawing his sword and pointing it to Kinoshita.
"EH?! WHAT'S WRONG WITH ME, SWORDSMAN-NII?!" Kinoshita surprised.
"YOU WILL DIE, JAPANESE ACCENT!" that albino said as swinging the sword to Kinoshita.
"Honey Protector!" Queen Bee spelled as throwing the honey and made protection for Kinoshita.

"There!" Oswallt shouted. "Now, let me sleep again!"
"There is no sleeping in opening ceremony!" a squeaky voice came from nowhere, like echoed in the ears. All people attention came to a single thing, which was standing on a table: Monochromatic Bear.
"I'm your headmaster, Monobear!" that monochromatic bear said, which caught all of sixteen students.
"And welcome to Phantasy Academy for despair!"
NOTE
I finish this introduction! Yeah, it took forever to write this, you know! Oh, and I will change POV sometimes.
Oh, and why did I get Queen Bee's design idea? I don't know. I just think they need partner and Queen Bee will be the one who will be the partner and Monobear's villain.
