Hiya!
Again, sorry for the long wait, but school has begun, and you know the shitty stuff that they really like to give you the first week of school....Oral Production! I just HATE to talk in front of the whole class, the big, freaky eyes of the students staring at me, its crazy! And to make it worse, I'm going to a 'French School', and I have this very pathetic accent of mine. My adoptive mom say that its good for me to learn a third language....but its like, hello?! I'm already speaking English and Japanese, and anyways, next year, I AM going to live in Japan, and French wont really be useful now, will it? So, I have this to say::
THE SCHOOL CURÉ-ANTOINE-LABELLE SUCKSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!
Again, thanks for the wonderful reviews! I hope that someday, my story will have 100 reviews. Your reviews are ALWAYS appreciated!
Besides, does that rocky ball still wants to stop us? Of course, when I say 'us', I don't exactly mean me, cuz I never wanted to be with them, but that's another thing I guess.
Following the path that led out of the Mercury Lighthouse's 'territory', I couldn't help but shiver deeply. I kept on rubbing my arms rapidly, hoping that I could manage to heat myself. Heat.
I really thought my brain was gonna freeze right at the moment if I didn't find somewhere to hide from the wind and falling snow. But after all, maybe I AM crazy....Y'see, I had this marvelous idea....The one where you create a fireball and rub it on your arms and stuff. I swear I was gonna do it if only Felix hadn't throw himself on me, getting HIS sleeve in fire and ended up rolling in the snow.
I also swear that I heard Kraden say: He's being nostalgic, making angels in the snow. : But anyways, old men are always rambling about stupid things, so I guess I should just ignore him. Kraden may not look like it, but he's built tough. I mean, he's been through a lot of walking, running, jumping, lack of food and awful weather, but he's still standing.
Don't ask me why I think Felix will become like him someday, 'kay?
Oh boy...
"Hey Jenno...Do you remember the old times...?" A very old Felix with very long white hair asked, spilling his coffee all over the ground due to his unstoppable shaking.
"Its Jenna." I replied casually. I sighed. "Yes, I remember. You told me a million times, and besides, I was there, remember?"
"...Maybe. Although I thought I brought a little blonde haired girl with us...Where did I put her now...OoOoh, too much for my old heart!" He whined as he pulled up the toilet 'cover' (I dunno how its called) and stared blankly at the yellowish water.
"Felix, I'm not sure you'd find a girl in the toilets."
"Did you know that the first man of Weyard was called.......And that he was the very first man to ever use the little magic thing....What's it called again? Ah, yes, Psynergy. At 10 years old he was forced to marry a 5 years old little girl that couldn't talk, and after a lot and lot and lot and lot and lot and lot of years, they fell in love! Oh, now, where is my old sword?"
"You mean that rusty brownish stick? I threw it to garbage yesterday!"
"HOW COULD YOU DO THAT?!? With this sword I fought the very threat of Weyard, saved your butt from that blue-haired young man that was very very very pitiful and lonely. But he died, wanting the sacred power allllllllll from himself and sank into the ground, along with Mt.Aleph...Besides, did you know that I...."
"SHUT UP! You're not making sense at all!"
Sheesh. I frowned at this image. If my hands weren't occupied rubbing my arms, I'd be hitting my head to shove the horrible picture of an old Felix, all creepy and stupid.
Huh? What is it that I see? A town? No...I'm being stupid, I can barely see in front of me. Why, of all the towns in Weyard, do we have to go to IMIL, especially? What's so special about that one? I'm gonna ask that blue freak when we arrive.
"Felix?"
"Hmm?"
"Are we arriving soon? Its freezing!" I whined, persuaded that no one other than my brother heard me. If I didn't feel like I was stuck in ice, I'd turn around to see if Kraden is still with us. My brother's reply was immediate. "We're there."
Looking up, I noticed the small village. Hopefully, the Inn wont be full, cuz I swear that if I don't get near fire soon enough, my toes are gonna fall. Damn, if I was directly linked to the Mars Clan, like Saturos and Menardi, I'd be okay right now.
The town was surrounded by wooden fence, as if to keep something out of the village. Felix and I jumped up the fence without problems, but Kraden's old legs couldn't make it without ripping his 'robes' or whatever his weird clothes are called. "THE INN!!" I yelled as I ran directly to a small house, where 'INN' was written upon the door. I think that I wanted so much to find it, that I actually did, even when our vision was almost completely blurred by the snowflakes.
Kraden walked in first, followed by me then Felix. Behind the counter stood a blonde woman, who smiled at us, bowing her head in, what I guess, a sign of respect. But then again, AH! What do I know of respect? Maybe she was just greeting us politely. ..... Why am I thinking so much about something so stupid? "Three rooms please." Felix tucked his hands in his pockets, looking for money. The blonde smiled nervously as she checked her registration books. "I am sorry, Mister. There is only two rooms left. Will you still take them?"
My brother groaned and mumbled a faint, "Yeah...." Whoa! Hang on there! Two rooms, and we're six....it means....that I'm gonna be with two other persons?! I was going to be with Felix, it was okay....but this means there's gonna be a third person?
Please make it be Menardi, please make it be Menardi, please make it be Menardi...
Why Menardi, you ask? Pretty simple. First, she's a girl, so it would be less embarrassing. Second, I don't want a old man sleeping in my room, its sick. ....Don't look at me like that! I totally know Kraden is....inoffensive. Its just on! Its Kraden! Who knows if he's gonna take off his dentures or whatever he's hiding?!
And Saturos. Come on. He's blue. His face is blue. His hair is blue. His clothes are blue. And he's a Mars Adept. Its freaky. Besides, he's not very nice with me. Duh.
And Alex. There's not much to say. He's almost never talking. Just the necessary like he say. Again, the guy's got blue hair. Long blue hair. AND he's a Water Adept, or whatever he is. Fire and water don't match, like cat and dogs. But there's a thing lovable about him. He's my next victim for my wave of pranks! After all, the worst that he can do is....make a little gray cloud follow me everywhere, raining on my head. I can manage!
Lost in my thinking, I guess I didn't notice my brother and the old man climbing the stairs, until the little missy tapped on my shoulder. "Um, Miss? The men that were with you are already on the second floor." She said timidly. I smiled and ran up the stairs, rushing into a random room, which I hope was ours.
I sighed of relief when I saw my brother taking off his cloak, placing it on the floor to let it dry, since our clothes are completely soaked, the snowflakes melting on it. Man, I cant really take my clothes off, but if I keep them on....I'm gonna catch a big cold.
Hey! I can use my Psynergy.... Yup, that's what I'm gonna do!
"Um, is there a bathroom in here??" I asked dumbly to anyone who wants to hear me.
"To your left." Kraden laughed at me. If I wasn't afraid of breaking his bones I'd....... grrrrr! I made my way to the bathroom, closed and locked the door. I really had a hard time taking my clothes off, since they were literally glued to my skin. Holding a towel around my body with one hand, I used the other to create a little fireball and held it above my clothes. After a while, my clothes were dry AND hot. I put them on again and walked out, noticing that Saturos, Menardi and Alex were there.
"T'was about time." I exclaimed, placing my hands on my hips.
"Blame it on those little friends of yours. I don't like to say it, but we had a tough time against them." Alex retorted, smirking his own trademark smirk. I couldn't help but yelp weakly. "You didn't kill them did you?!"
"Maybe. Maybe not." He said and sipped his coffee as if nothing happened, seated comfortably on the red couch in our room. It struck a tender nerve inside of me.
"SAY IT!!" I yelled, fuming horribly. My best friends were, maybe, dead on top of a stupid tower, where no one can find them! I really wont be able to live with myself if I don't know if they're dead or not. Then again, I wouldn't be able to live with myself even if I KNEW that they were dead.
"Lets just say they're sleeping peacefully."
I..Cant..Believe..It. I never, ever, imagined that someone could be so cruel. Doesn't he have any feelings?! Any conscience!?
Forget, Jenna. Just....forget about it, don't even THINK about it. Resist to the urge of burning him alive. Resist. That's in these kinds of moments that I realize that I have a lot of self-control. OoOoOoh....my staff is a meter away from me.... My hand....its freaking moving by itself....yeaaaaaah, go grab the staff....
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!" I screamed, causing pretty much everyone to stare at me weirdly. "Err, nothin'. I laughed interiorly. Yeah, maybe I am going insane. But I swear that whenever I am in the same room of Alex, I have these urges....You know....those urges when you want to hit something.... But anywayz, for the FIRST time EVER, I was relieved that Kraden talk.
"Two rooms, six people, we must separate in two groups." He stated.
Saturos chuckled to himself from his corner, staring at....me? "What are you laughing at?" I asked softly, staring back at him in wonder. "
"Alex and I took the liberty to separate the group in two while you were in the bathroom. I hope you don't mind...do you?" Saturos faked the sweetest voice ever, as if hoping to actually fool me. But then again, surely he placed me with my brother and Kraden, huh? Right? RIGHT? "Menardi, I and the old man will be together in the left room." He stated while his words processed through my brain. Menardi, eliminated. Kraden, eliminated. Saturos, eliminated. It means it leaves...me, my brother, and Alex. Nothing's too bad. Oh? Wait a sec here. ALEX?!
"I am SO not going to sleep with Alex in the same room!" I exclaimed, tapping my foot on the floor impatiently, heavily ANNOYED.
"Too bad kid. We need someone strong to watch on you, and the only one truly effective is him. "
Just....forget what I said earlier, about how much self-control I had. It was a pure, utter lie. I couldn't control myself as I went to the male Mars Adept and punched him square on the nose, causing a loud 'crack' sound. "You BROKE my nose!" He shouted as his hand jerked upward to cover his bleeding nose. I gasped.
"I'm so sorry....I didn't mean to break that...." I apologized, smiling weakly., pausing a bit to think of what I was going to say next. Lucky me, it came out pretty impulsively. He only muttered a little, "T'sokay...."
"Nah, I think you misunderstood me. What I meant is, I didn't mean to break your nose, but your teeth!" I laughed and stormed out of the room, not wanting to see his reaction. I ran in the room me, my brother and the jerk were supposed to share, closed the door and slid down onto my knees, giggling like mad.
Come on guys, you've seen it comin', nah?
By the way, romance might not come before a few chapters, I want their relationship to grow slowly, to be natural. Not to fall in love at the first time, its too unreal. Dont be mad!
