*Waves nervously.* Heeeey... long time no see. Would you believe me, if I told you that I can explain? We will talk after this chapter...


I don't like bullies, I don't care where they're from. ~ Captain America

When my alarm went off I forced myself to stand up and dress quietly. When we had our club meeting, Matthew had addressed the fact that he'd gotten a letter. Arthur was convinced that the invitation was a trap. Matthew on the other hand thought the part about the consequences was enough reason to at least give the chemistry lab a quick look. And I agreed with Matthew. So two against one meant that were going on a secret mission.

As I made my way to the door I prayed that Toris wouldn't notice my disappearance. On the other side I was met with a very moody Arthur and a very tense Matthew. Matthew's soft reply to my happy smile was a very bitchy: 'What took you so long?' I'd forgotten how soft he could talk. 'Sorry my bed didn't want to let me go. But I'm here now. So let's start operation Purple potato.' For a moment it was silent. It was Arthur who spoke up: 'I can't believe we are all so willing to use your ridiculous names all the time.'

When he caught me staring he frowned. 'Why are you looking like that?' Maybe I was still sleepy, because I quickly looked away to hide my red face. 'Nothing, let's go.' So now you must be thinking: How the hell do you guys go places without being noticed? Well when we we're younger we noticed that a lot of camera's have a blind spot.

So usually we use those to our advantage. Also it's really easy to get into the main building. Arthur never handed over his keys after giving up working for the Student Council. So we use the backdoor. And since Matthew has the beautiful gift of invisibility we soon found our way through the building. As we walked towards the last hallway that would separate us from our goal I started feeling slightly nervous.

Both Matthew and I stopped as we felt the temperature drop. 'Is it just me, or has someone opened a window?' Arthur let out a sigh. 'Odd, it's getting colder, but there are no windows open.' I guess I was really nervous because I took his hand. 'What if it's like some sort of Queen Elsa type of person. I seriously don't wanna build a snowman, if it's with a psychopath.' Matthew quickly threw away my ridiculous assumption.

We had to be at the chemistry lab at precisely 12 o'clock. And we were right on time. So you would think that we would storm the classroom like the FBI or something. Instead we stood in front of the door with hesitation. 'So, we're all gonna walk in together. Or does someone volunteer, or how do we do this?'

Matthew volunteered to take a look of course. 'Let me sneak in first. If there's something dangerous waiting, we back off immediately.' He already started turning invisible. 'Alright then, but be careful.' He bit his lip again. 'We have nothing to worry about, it's not like the predator is waiting for us or something.' We both laughed awkwardly at that. Yeah, it was not like we were gonna die or something. Matthew opened the door slightly and disappeared. And for a few minutes it was completely silent. 'Art, are you okay?' I felt his hand squeeze my own to reassure me. It felt nice. 'I'm… okay. You?'

I gave him my biggest grin as I clenched his hand tighter. 'Just a bit nervous.' Suddenly Matthew's voice came from the other side of the door. 'Guys…' I had no idea what I would see on the other side. But the moment I heard Matthew's disturbed whispering voice I walked right in. The first thing I noticed were three guys standing in the middle of the room.

The tallest one had white blonde hair, and wore a long winter coat, a white scarf and black gloves. He looked up startled and suddenly the floor was covered in ice. I almost slipped when my feet entered the room. After the shock of almost falling flat on my face disappeared I went into shock again. 'What the fuck.' Besides the tall guy stood a very familiar face. Arthur was the first to speak up about this. 'Francis? What are you doing here?'

Immediately I tensed up. Was this really a trap? Francis smiled when we walked in. 'I told you they would be here. Don't underestimate my skills just yet.' He said to the big guy. For a second we just all stared at each other in confusion. 'So Matt was right, you're a mind reader. Suddenly Francis let out a very sad sigh. 'Ah yes, I am indeed. But that's not important right now. Alfred you poor little soul, what are you even wearing? Do you call that the costume of a hero?' For a second I was completely confused.

I'd put on some camouflage clothes and my old jacket. I felt as if I was dressed quite well for my first mission. He however was looking ridiculous. 'Speak for yourself dude, you look like you walked out of a wannabe-Zorro circus club.'

He wore a long purple blue-ish coat, dark red pants, long black boots and a black Zorro mask that barley hid his face. 'You don't like it my American friend?' He clenched his heart as if in deep pain. 'You hang around with Arthur too much. Otherwise you wouldn't have tried to offend me so deeply. I can't help but to be disappointed.' Arthur's face slowly turned a funny shade of red. 'I swear to God. Changing the topic might work with Alfred but it won't with me. You better start talking.'

Francis ignored him like usual and took a spin to show the weird clothes. 'Made them myself when I was locked up in my room. If you want to I can make something for you too!' He gave Arthur's old sweater and jeans a good look. 'You look terrible like usual my dear friend. Green is definitely your best colour. May I suggest…'

'Enough already!' We all looked up surprised. Besides the tall guy stood an Asian guy. He was small, had long black hair in a ponytail and a dragon mask covered his face. He put it off annoyed and gave us all an angry glare. It took me a second to realize who it was, but Arthur was already speaking. 'Yao?' The Chinese man looked like he was ready to punch something. 'I don't know what type of joke this is supposed to be. But is sucks.'

So I'm not like the best person to introduce you to Yao Wang. But then again, so aren't Matthew and Arthur. Let just say he's like this guy in our class. And he usually hangs with people from his own country or from the Asian continent. He's friends with Kiku, I think. But I'm not sure, and in general he seems like a good guy. But we never really talked. Francis and he are in the same Gourmet Club. And Arthur and Yao used to have fights over who would teach this kid from Hong Kong the art of tea. Yes the art of tea, don't ask me why that is a thing. Also Ivan is his stalker. But that's all I know.

The tall guy was already patting Yao on the shoulders. 'I think Francis is not stupid enough for stupid jokes comrade. But I do wonder what is going on.' The guy had a very familiar accent. And I might look or act stupid, but I'm definitely not that thick-headed. 'Let me guess, you're the Commie aren't you?' Arthur replied on my remark with a sarcastic no shit Sherlock, before quickly pulling me back.

Ivan's face slowly got a dark glance as the ice at our feet started getting a bit too spiky for my liking. 'I suggest you stop calling me a Commie, I wouldn't want to snap you.' I raised my hands in matter of peace. 'Wow chill dude. Oh wait, don't chill since that already seems to be your thing.' I took a deep breath myself. 'Just relax.' Yao also tensed up. 'They could be working with Plasma.' Ivan put of his hoodie and gave us all a very intense glare. 'Wouldn't surprise me. I say we get rid of them.'

I'd never heard that one before. 'Wait, who's Plasma?' Matthew tried to speak up too, but everyone ignored him. So I quickly repeated his words: 'And who of you wrote the letter anyways?' Francis stared at me with confusion before suddenly realisation hit him. 'I think I understand where this misunderstanding originated.' Yao was giving him a threatening look. 'I knew we shouldn't have trusted the mind reader. You lured us into this trap. I knew we couldn't trust you!' Francis quickly shook his head.

'I wouldn't lie. I promised you I would help right?' The room was getting colder with the minute. 'I was going to help you catch Plasma remember? That's the mission. I didn't know they would show up.' Francis pointed at us in an almost accusing way. Arthur of course didn't take it. 'Frog, don't you dare shove the blame on us. We were invited here for god knows why.' Francis interrupted him. 'I'm not blaming you. You know I'm on your side. I didn't tell you because you wouldn't believe me. You thought I was crazy right?'

Had I missed an important part of the discussion? 'Wait a second. What are we talking about again? I'm not following!' Ivan commented to Yao that they should attack now, now that we were distracted. Matthew was mumbling about leaving as Francis and Arthur were in a heated debate. Most of us didn't follow it since Francis seemed to directly react on Arthur's thoughts. Yao shook his head with frustration. 'Never thought you would ever get involved. But then again, you guys do seem to stick your nose in others people's businesses a lot.'

Francis gave Yao an annoyed look. 'I told you they are no threat!'
'Stop bloody threating us like one then! How can we know that we can trust you?'
'Guys… please listen…?'
'Wow chill people, it's gonna be all good. Just relax!'
'Maybe I should break your spine first?'

That last comment made everyone quiet. We all turned to Ivan who was smiling like he was attending a tea party. I could see my own breathe. 'Just out of curiosity. How do you manipulate the air temperature and create solid ice out of nowhere?' When Ivan stayed silent I looked at Francis. 'Why are you looking at me?' I raised my shoulders. 'Dunno, thought you might read his mind for me.' Francis laughed. 'Do I look like I speak Russian?' Arthur held back a grin as he added: 'Does he look like he can use his brain to begin with?'

Matthew tried obviously not to stress out, but I noticed that most of his fingers had disappeared. 'Guys really? We are in a serious situation right now. And from all times you could do this. You decide that right now is the best moment to keep this discussion?' Before he could even finish that sentence Ivan walked towards me, took me by the collar and held me up. Let me tell you: That hurts… A lot.

Yao tried to pull his ally back. 'Ivan stop that. We need to go. We can take them out later. They're probably decoy. Plasma is getting away!' Arthur slowly took a few steps towards us. His eyes started glowing green, and he was holding that old stuffy book again. 'You should leave indeed. Let Alfred go you bloody bloke.' It didn't seem like a very smart move, but I'd never seen Arthur so angry. In the mean time I tried to free myself. With a bit of trouble I succeeded.

Matthew was holding up his hand and asking me how many fingers I saw. Francis was asking Ivan what he'd been thinking to do such thing. And Yao's eyes got a weird yellow color as he commented that they were leaving. 'Don't go yet. Why are you guys chasing this Plasma guy?!' Yao gave me a dark look before he commented: 'He's dangerous. And you were fools to think you could trust him. Seriously? I didn't even know who this guy was but okay.

It was when someone at the door spoke up that everything grew silent. 'What's going on here?' Everyone turned their heads. Three people were standing there. The boy who'd spoken up had a thick southern accent.

He wore the male uniform and a black mask covered his entire face except for his mouth and eyes. His hair was dark shade of brown, and he looked around carefully. The girl next to him was very small. She was dressed in red and black, had very light blonde hair pulled back in a ponytail and a white mask covered her entire face. She had cold blue eyes. 'Well this was unexpected.' Her voice was muffled, but she had a very thick accent.

'Indeed.' The third boy reacted. He was average of height. He wore hoodie that covered his face in combination with his long black curly hair. Around his neck was a pair of headphones, he was listening to Maroon 5. Yao started growling and he stepped away from Francis and towards the three newcomers. Shit where had that sound come from?! The first boy (who I assumed was Plasma) clapped his hands together as if in joy.

'We finally found you General! And your little pet is here too, what a joyous day!' His voice was oddly enough very calm and emotionless. He walked in as if he owned the place too. 'Are these your new little friends?' He looked at Arthur with interest.

'Mister Kirkland, it's quite a surprise to see you here. But I could've expected it. Once part of the Student Council, always part of the Student Council I guess.' Arthur stood up so he was face to face with the unknown boy. 'It's rude to not introduce yourself you know.' With those words he tried to hit the guy. But suddenly a shining net held him back.

'Arthur!' I quickly made my way towards him. He seemed unharmed. 'Sorry for that mister Kirkland. That was my force field. I always keep one around in case people like you decide that they want to smash my head in.' The boy with the hoodie grinned. 'Well you should give him credit Plasma. A proper introduction is the least we can do.' He raised his hand in ways of greeting. 'The name's Howler. My thing is sound vibrations. Nice to meet all of you. This guy with the force field is Plasma. And this girl here…'

He couldn't finish his sentence because Yao was already trying to attack him. Did I mention he's like the new karate kid? The girl did a step forward, and stared with a scary intensity at Yao. The Chinese man immediately fell on the ground and started screaming in pain. When she finally looked away the torture seemed to stop. Plasma was scolding Howler for telling his power. Howler cut the conversation short by turning to us.

'Anyways, it's rude not to let someone finish their sentence you know. So what I was saying, this lovely girl we like to call Bloody Mary. In her case looks will probably kill you.' I'd been lost in words until now. 'What do you want?' Plasma turned to me, and amused grin formed on his face. 'Alfred Jones?' He walked towards me, confident, not afraid to get hurt because of his force field.

He looked at Matthew in the corner. 'Matthew Jones is here too.' When he saw Francis he frowned. 'Don't know who you are tough.' Francis quickly responded. 'I'm Mister Right.' Plasma nodded. 'Nice to meet ya.' He turned back to Ivan and me. 'So General Winter, these are your allies? A delusional hero, The Dragon, a grumpy British boy, and a guy named Mister Right?' He didn't sound very impressed.

Matthew made a sound that suggested he was forgotten. But my focus was on the guy in front of me. 'So you guys are like what, the villains?' Probably a very stupid question. But at least it was a clear one. 'Villains? What do you think this is? A comic book?' Plasma's grin disappeared and Howler shook his head as if disappointed. 'There are only our interests, and yours.' He pointed at Yao and Ivan. 'Those two have been terrorizing the school grounds for a while. You could compare them to dictators.'

Yao shouted something in Chinese which was probably extremely offending. 'We think it's time that they're put back where they belong. So you might not think it now, but I bet we will be future allies.' As Plasma was talking Howler was walking around Francis and Matthew over and over again. He seemed fascinated by something. 'Alfred the thing is: Once these two have used you, they will throw you away. They will not stop until they've made you disappear, just like they did with others that were like us.'

I felt as if something got stuck in my throat. I turned to look at Arthur. He wore the same confused expression. 'You mean there are more of us? How many?' These were the people that might be able to give us the answers we needed. And maybe Francis recognized that curiosity, because he slowly shook his head.

'You have no idea don't you?' Bloody Mary seemed a bit shocked. Her voice was difficult to understand because of her dress up. 'Plasma…' it was Ivan who spoke up. His voice was stern. He immediately got interrupted by Howler who told him to shut it. 'They come and go Alfred. Usually they need help, they're scared.' He nodded at Howler and Bloody Mary. 'We just want to help them.'

A part of me wanted to believe him. It really wanted to think that these guys really meant well. And it was easy to think that both Ivan and Yao were the bad guys in this situation. That's when I remembered how they didn't hesitate to hurt. Sure Yao and Ivan weren't the best either, and Arthur also had some anger issues. But I knew them, they wouldn't hurt anyone out of enjoyment.

These people were different. They were not scared. They were confident and Plasma definitely had the eyes of maniac. 'Alfred, I know we've never been on very good terms or anything. But please trust me when I say: These guys are lying and many messed up things have happened because of them.' Yao said as he his serious expression made place for slight panic. Ivan nodded in agreement. 'Why else you'd think I'd gotten involved. You know me longer than today.'

How could I know who was lying? I couldn't help but the turn to Francis. If Francis could read minds, then he would probably not have trouble reading mine right? Francis snorted. 'Trust me Alfred. I can read you alright.' I raised my eyebrows at him. Well I guess I didn't need to say anything more since Mister Right had everything under control.

Francis slowly let out an annoyed protests. 'Don't be so rude. You have been hanging around Arthur too much lately.' The three people across from us were very confused and completely caught off guard. 'The truth is Alfred. I cannot help you. I put my faith in the General and the Dragon because they showed me mercy.' Francis suddenly became quiet as he looked at the unknown trio in front of us.

'I do know something else that might help you.' The trio was still looking at us in confusion, so Francis took his chance. 'Howler's real name is George de Bakker. Plasma is Jimmy Stones. And Bloody Mary is…' before he could say anything else Howler's music got extremely loud and we all got smashed against the wall. You could say that this information helped me out.

Jimmy Stones. Who I'd played basketball with when still on the school's team.
Jimmy Stones. Who had lived his entire life in Kansas before suddenly going to the Academy.
Jimmy Stones. A guy that I trusted, who I considered one of my few American friends.

I knew him alright. He could easily lie, had a few issues and was known on the sport field for being violent. Yet he was also one of the better guys I knew. Ivan reacted quickest to the sudden attack. He tapped his feet on the ground, but while Plasma's feet did manage to get stuck in ice, so did Francis and Yao.

I was still trying to get rid of my dizzy head when I heard Yao mutter: 'There we go again…' I didn't understand what he meant by that. That's when he transformed into eagle, and tried to claw Howler's eyes out. Well apparently that was his thing.

Not much surprises me anymore.

The loud sound vibrations immediately stopped as Howler got distracted. Mary immediately started paralyzing both Francis and Yao. Eagle-Yao fell down and changed into a horse and tried to kick her. Arthur and Ivan got smashed against the wall by Howler (who had a deep cut in his face because of eagle-Yao) and Matthew was nowhere in sight.

(I should admit that I'm not a big fan for unnecessary violence.) 'Matt?' I looked around in panic. What if he got hurt? Or even worse? I was so distracted that I didn't notice someone sneak up to me. I got smashed into the ground by a sudden force. It was Plasma's force field. 'If you're not with us, then you're against us.' His voice was suddenly extremely calm. 'Jimmy please. It's me Alfred. Please don't do this.' He slowly made his way towards me. His grey eyes slowly blinked. 'Give me a good reason why not.'

The force field seemed to tighten around my throat. I tried to breathe, but found I couldn't. 'Jimmy we played basketball together. You don't wanna hurt me. You're better than this man.' For a second he seemed to hesitate. Around us a crazy type of chaos seemed to occur. Matthew had appeared and gave Bloody Mary a good hit on the head, making her go unconscious.

Francis lay knocked out in the corner and Ivan and Arthur closed in on Howler. 'We're friends Jimmy. We play for the same team. Don't make mistakes you'll regret later on.' I could breathe again. His hand suddenly slung at his side as he looked at me. 'Alfred.' He was scared. I'm not a mind reader. But knowing Jimmy, I knew he was.

My throat hurt like hell as I spoke. 'I know, there are weird things happening. And you think you'll have to make decisions. But you don't have to. We're all in this together.' I held out my hand. For a second his hand seemed to move. As if he was ready to be honest with himself. But suddenly something cold washed over him. 'I'm sorry Jones.' With those words I got strangled violently.

My hands went to my throat in reflex. But the force field was impossible to remove. 'If I let you go, those guys will come for me. I told you we're all in trouble. They will do the same thing to us as they did with the others…' I started seeing black dots in my field of vision. 'So I'm sorry it had to go this way.' Oh it's cool man, all things forgiven, wanna play catch? So yeah that was no my reaction because I was moving around like a fish on land.

Suddenly Yao sneaked up behind him like a ninja and kicked the hell out of Plasma's face. Immediately the pressure disappeared and I could breathe again. 'Jones, are you alright?' I tried to stand up to show that I felt great. But I fell down immediately. 'I'm good. Just… give me sec.' Suddenly a loud scream made the world move.

Howler had opened his mouth to let out some sort of crazy sonic scream. My ears were hurting like hell and Matthew, Yao and a still unconscious Francis got smacked against the walls. Arthur had put up a glowing barrier that protected both him and Ivan against the sonic scream. I started to understand why they called that guy The Howler.

I stood up with a bit of difficulty. 'Guys you okay?' Yao mumbled something about his back, and Matthew who looked extremely pissed slowly stood up. 'I feel great.' He clapped his hands together and a light trembling went through the air. 'Alfred, let's take this fucker down.' Ha, easier said then done. I was exhausted. Arthur's barrier broke and the moment Ivan hit the floor it started freezing.

Howler looked at Arthur with amusement. The British dude looked tired. He looked ready to give up. But he surprised everyone when he started speaking in gibberish. And really, it really was gibberish. After he was done a moment of silence fell. When nothing happened I looked around for anything weird. Whatever his plan had been, there was one good thing that came out of it. Howler was speechless.

He soon started laughing but before he could make a snarky remark Arthur smirked. He raised his hand and an explosive sound filled the room. Something that looked like sonic blast came from his hand and Howler was so surprised that he got smashed against the floor.

But he got caught in a force field-like net. I turned to the place where Plasma had laid, but he was gone. Yao was also nowhere to be found. 'Nice catch.' Howler commented as Plasma pulled him out of the net. Plasma's nose was experiencing heavy bleeding. But he was choosing to ignore it. 'No prob.'

Matthew suddenly stood beside me and whispered. 'How do we take them out? If we let them go who knows what they'll do? We have to make sure they don't hurt anyone.' I agreed with him. But before I could even come up with a good plan Arthur was getting suffocated by the force field. And suddenly my mind went back to basics. Smash.

My feet started moving before I could rethink my plan. Wait, did I even have a plan? I don't think so… My hands became fists without any trouble. I heard Matthew's protests but didn't care. Suddenly Yao backed me up. Like some sort off Ant-Man he grew from the seize of an insect to a human in a matter of seconds. 'I'll take the loud one.' He simply stated. I was fine with that idea.

Plasma saw me from miles away, and suddenly I was stuck. I tried to move to the left but was met with a wall, I checked every corner but soon discovered I was stuck in a cube. 'Nice try.' Plasma stated as his left hand kept me locked up while his other tried to get Arthur to stop breathing. I tried not to smile as Matthew suddenly appeared behind Plasma and gave him a good head butt. Sadly he wasn't out yet.

Arthur gasped as he fell down, and immediately I made my way to him. 'Are you okay? How many fingers am I holding up?' Arthur frowned as he looked from me to Matthew. 'There three of you? How's that possible?' Oh gosh he really was out. Ivan suggested he would hit Arthur with a metal pipe he'd ripped out of the wall, but both Matthew and I quickly declined that idea. Howler and Plasma approached us at a very quick pace.

Howler had taken out Yao, who lay in the corner of the room. Francis quickly made his way towards the knocked out Chinese. I had no idea how we could win this. Howler and Plasma were far more experienced. Ivan seemed clumsy with his powers, and both Matthew and I were not experienced enough to-

'Do you people have any idea how late it is?' Before we could let out a dramatic gasp Howler and Plasma were taken out by a tiger. The yellow eyes that looked at us with intelligence belonged to Yao. The person in the door opening looked very grumpy and frustrated. 'Mister Wang, please do not kill your fellow students. I do not allow such behaviour at these school grounds.' The woman walking in looked extremely familiar.

She had a thick English accent, weird but familiar eyebrows and intense eyes that were even scarier than those of Bloody Mary. Yao slowly let go of the two students in confusion. It was Miss Kirkland. And there's more! Next to her stood Mister Vadas. You know the gym teacher that hates us? Well as he gave us all a good look I knew that we were very, very, very fucked. 'So who of you would like to volunteer to explain what you were doing outside your dorm rooms at this hour?'

Yao changed back into his human form. The ice around us melted and disappeared and the temperature went back to normal. I wanted to say something. But suddenly I noticed that I felt heavier. I felt extremely heavy, like I was carrying heavy metal bars around. I couldn't keep myself standing and fell on my knees. 'Mister Jones, I knew you were trouble. Not used to being like us regular humans?' Francis looked confused from Miss Kirkland to Mister Vadas. 'I can't… What's going on?' Howler too was mumbling confused as he was snapping his fingers. But whatever he wanted to happen, I didn't go as planned.

'You can stop that Mister de Bakker. All of your abilities are neutralized with thanks to Mister Vadas. And you won't be getting them back any time soon.' Miss Kirkland said as she walked towards Arthur and helped him stand up straight. He looked at her confused. 'Mum? What the…?' He didn't finish his words as suddenly a bright purple glow surrounded them and he was suddenly able to stand up straight again.

'How did you?' Matthew had stopped his attempts of helping me on my feet and instead pointed at Miss Kirkland. 'You… That's something Arthur can do! Explain yourself.' Ivan was holding the metal pipe with a look that came close to threatening. Mister Vadas seemed to lose his cool. 'All of you shut up and stand in line!' When nobody moved he gave Miss Kirkland a look. She nodded and with a flick of the wrist we all stood in line.

The moment the weird sensation that had moved my body disappeared, I lost control over my legs again and I fell flat on my face. 'Here is the thing folks! You've blatantly ignored school rules, attacked your fellow students and have been using your abilities for the worst. You will all come to a talk tomorrow. In which we will discuss your punishment. The SA Program is not here for your amusement you understand?!'

He pointed at Yao, Ivan, Howler and Plasma. 'You especially will have a special talk with me. Your powers will be deactivated until your punishment is over.' Miss Kirkland walked over to the two rogues and snapped her fingers. Purple mist appeared around them. Suddenly all emotions left their faces and the mist vanished. They blinked looked around confused and then slowly left the room without saying a word. 'Mister Wang and Braginsky. I hope you realize the damage that you have created?' Miss Kirkland gave the two boys a good look. Ivan simply looked down.

Yao let out a deep sigh. 'Just get it over with.' Miss Kirkland didn't seem taken back. She snapped her fingers, and both Yao and Ivan slowly left the room. Dreamy expressions could be found on their faces. Before Ivan left the room he dropped the pipe. Before anything could be said Miss Kirkland looked at Bloody Mary who was regaining conscious. 'Miss Arlovskaya. You and your brother should have a talk tomorrow. Understood?' Slowly the girl removed her mask to reveal the face of-

'Natalya?' I couldn't hide my surprise. Natalya Arlovskaya, Ivan's little sister. The psychopath that my roommate Toris has a crush on. As she revealed her doll-like face, I felt as if I'd been right all along about her. It surprised me a bit that her face looked so sad. 'Yes ma'am.' Miss Kirkland's face softened a bit. 'I'm sure your brother will forgive you. But for now you'll receive the same punishment as your friends.' She snapped her finger and Natalya left the room without looking back.

It was then that she turned to us. 'Mister Bonnefoy, the Jones brother and my own son.' Mister Vadas stood in the background and looked ready to give the angriest speech of his life. But before anything could be said Arthur spoke up: 'I have so many questions.' Francis kept back a laugh. 'Well you're not the only one.'

Mister Vadas gave the room a good look. 'We'll have to fix this mess before the headmaster sees it.' Miss Kirkland let out a sigh. 'Very well then.' Suddenly she was holding Arthur's old book. 'You have the same book? How is this possible?' Arthur looked shocked. When Miss Kirkland had restored the room she looked at her son with concerned eyes.

'I'm sorry you had to discover it like this. But I promise things will get clear tomorrow. Arthur shook his head, his eyebrows furrowed together in an angry frown. 'There is not a single scenario of this in which I'll let my memory get erased.' He looked incredibly hurt. I managed to sit up straight. I wanted to comfort him but was bit too busy with not getting crushed by gravity. 'Sir? Could you please give back my flying ability? Or the strength thing? I don't mind which one. But I can't move around like this'

My cells which were extremely light had become heavy again without the ability of flight. I had to get used to the normal gravity weight pressing down on me. Mister Vadas gave me a good look. 'Nah, I'm sure you brother can drag you to your room without any trouble.' Miss Kirkland moved her hand in ways of showing she was going to Men-In-Black flash us. But Arthur quickly stopped her. 'Please don't. Just tell us what's going on.'

Matthew helped me stand up straight. 'Tomorrow dear, things will become clear to all of you tomorrow.' She snapped her fingers, and when I woke up, I had a terrible headache and a message from Arthur.

Arthur: How are you feeling? 9:35


1. Yao Wang = China
2. The side-villians are OC (Own Characters). Not important.
3. Dangara2610, you asked who James was. Well he also is a OC human character that I invented just for the lolz. :)
4. Alright let's go to the explaining part: So around March/April I promised to update real soon. But since then a lot happened. School was being a bitch like always, I had some personal issues to deal with, and I decided to rewrite chapter 10 completely. I finished it in begin April. But didn't feel satisfied with it. And it took me a month of struggling to make it better. The chapter might still be terrible, but this project started because I wanted to improve my English and because I wanted to write Hetalia/Superhero genre stories. And I also stated that I don't know where the ship will strand. I do hope I finish this, but I do not want to force myself. So I'm just trying my best, having fun. And I'm looking forward to chapter 11! :D So my apologies, of suddenly dissapearing of this earth... xD
5. Also I promised USUK, but there was none. SORRY. In the rewriting a lot was cut off. So maybe in future chapters? I think this story will have around 20/25 chapters. So 15 to go!

Thank you for reading like always! I hope you enjoyed and I'll see you around. Stay awesome, and if you feel like it: Leave a review down below. ;)
