Chapter 9 Stressful Times

Drew paced his room anxiously. "I could have sworn that I saw the Black Cobra…." He ran one hand through his green locks. "But what is he doing here?" Drew laid down his bed staring blankly at the ceiling. His vision started to dim…everything getting darker and darker. Suddenly it was black and Drew lay fast asleep.

The next day Drew awoke with a blinding light. He used one hand to cover his face and looked at the clock. It read 6:30. He groaned in frustration and started for the shower. Hot water splattered onto his milky skin. Drew stood there eyes closed for a while. Turning off the shower he grabbed his towel and headed back into his room. He grabbed his uniform and put it on unbuttoning the top two buttons of his shirt. "Another day…another miserable day." He grumbled as he left his room towards the classroom.

As he was walking he spotted May in the garden. She was crouched and sniffing a rose. He had never seen her like this. Usually she would be cold and unsocial, but for that split moment she was different. She had a light smile that graced her lips and she was still. Her brown hair was down and seemed to shine when the morning sun's ray hit it. May turned her head and noticed Drew.

"Good morning." She said her smile turning into a frown.

Drew noticed her frown. "Yeah good morning." He nodded.

May stood up brushing herself off. "And what brings you here?"

"This is my normal route to class."

"Oh."

Drew glanced at his watch. "We'd better be hurrying if we don't want to be late."

May nodded and followed Drew to class. As Drew opened the door a water ball flew pass them. Nothing unusual, just the usual chaotic scene. Taking his seat in the back with the rest of the group he sighed. The teacher entered the classroom a couple minutes later. It was their defense teacher, Mr. Kin. He set his book on the desk and combed back his raven hair with his fingers. "Quiet down class." He bellowed, clapping his hands together to get everybody's attention.

May looked at the teacher. This should be interesting, usually this class was. "As you all know your exams are coming up." Mr. Kin reminded them and put a stack of folders on his desk. "These folders here will help you prepare for them." He began to hand the folder to each student. May opened hers; it listed ways to defend yourself from offensive attacks. Gadgets were also listed, and defined on one page.

Mr. Kin called the class's attention after he had passed out the folders. "Okay, now today for our lesson we will be playing a little game. This shall show me how some of you can defend yourselves." He turned towards the board and began to write names on the board. Boys were on one side and girls were on the other. "As you see I've made two lists of boys and girls. Your partner will be the one across from your name."

May looked scanned for her name. She found it and looked to the name next to it. 'Drew Blade'. May inwardly groaned, could today be any worse. Drew smirked as he looked at May. Today's lesson would be interesting.

"Now that you know who your partner is." The teacher said getting everybody to quiet down. "I'll explain the rules of the game. It's basically your game of ultimate hide and seek. One person will be it, and the other will be hiding. You may hide anywhere on the campus, but if you are found, basically you will try to make it back to this classroom before that person catches you. In order for them to catch you they have to stick one of these on you." Mr. Kin held up a star sticker. "Once you've been marked, you lose."

A few minutes later everybody gathered up with their partner. Mr. Kin opened the door and windows. "I presume you all have decided who is who. So, on your marks, get set, go." He yelled as some students scattered out of the room, while others closed their eyes and counted. The hunt had begun.
