Chapter One: New Neighborhood
Ainchase Ishmael stared blankly out the tinted window of the limousine as the trees and houses passed by in a blur. He had gotten used to moving by now. Every time, there would be a new mansion, old servants, the old mission he had to fulfill, and a bunch of new plebeians to annoy him.
"Ain! We're here!" His mother turned to smile at him from the front seat, her aquamarine eyes sparkling with glee. Ain got out of the limo and waited for his servants to lift his suitcase out of the trunk. His mother was gazing up at the Ishmael mansion.
"Isn't it gorgeous?" She asked him.
"I guess so," Ain replied halfheartedly. It looked the same as always: painted pure white with ornate golden decorations gleaming in the light. It showcased the logo of El Energy Co. on its front, along with the slogan of the Ishmael family. He knew that it had something to do with fulfilling their mission of attending to the needs of the whole world, but he could not read it because it was in a foreign language.
"Appear more excited, Ain. Velder High is one of the most prestigious high schools in the country. You're going to love it."
"Last time you said I would love my new school, it turned out to be overrun with plebeians. The same thing happened the time before last time and the time before that. I do not expect this time to be any different."
"Ain, don't call them plebeians. That's not nice. Not everyone can be rich."
Ain ignored her. He trudged up the stairs to his new bedroom, the servant carrying his suitcase. Normal kids would run off to make new friends now, but Ainchase was no ordinary kid. He was the young heir to El Energy Co., the world's leading company working with renewable energy resources. He dug through his suitcase and found his favorite book, The Practical Applications of Solar, Wind, Geothermal, and Hydroelectric Energy. He had no time to associate with the neighborhood losers. He had an important mission to complete.
