"Ugh, another pointless day at Hexside" said a boy with messy black hair and dark aquamarine eyes and pale white skin as he walked to school
The boy was in the healing track, the one specializing in...well...healing
The boy walked through Hexside with a constant frown
"Just one more year Clement, then you graduate, just one more year and no more Hexside" said Clement as he walked through the school without paying any attention to his surroundings before bumping into someone and falling on his back
Instead of doing what someone would usually do in this situation, Clement just got up with a grunt and proceeded to walk again ignoring the abomination track student hebunped into
"Hey, That was rude" said Augustus Porter making Clement look back at him
"Yes, because i totally wanted to bump into your friend" said Clement frowning before he glanced at the abomination cauldron that was next to the two where he saw someone stare at him "what is that thing?"
The person in the cauldron sunk down as soon as they were mentioned and Willow stood in front of the cauldron
"What do you mean? It's an abomination of course, what else could it be? haha" said Willow as she smiled nervously at the glare of Clement "oh would you look at that, class is about to start, goodbye!"
Clement watched at Willow ran away with her cauldron while Gus ran in the other direction after a glare
Clement sighed and started walking to his class, trying to get that encounter out of his head
The healing classroom was a school clinic or infirmary, students in the healing track would heal students and teachers who got hurt in other classes...which happened very often
If they make a mistake, the teacher is there to help, and if they're not healing, they're actually learning stuff
Clement made his way into the healing classroom quietly and the teacher noticed him
"Oh! Mr.Applehorn! You're late, well that means you have to deal with our first patient, A student fell down some stairs and sprained one of their ankles" said the healing teacher cheerfully
"Already?
"we don't comment on others' personalities!" Said the teacher with a smile
Clement rolled his eyes and got ready to handle his patient, he got to the patient, set their injured leg in a certain position then drew a magic circle and pressed it on the patient's injured leg
And after a few seconds, it was healed and Clement walked away as the student stood up
Clement was a master at healing, better than the teacher even, sure his attitude is less than ideal for the job, but he was the best
The student thanked Clement as they left the room, Clement then took a seat
"Well done mr.Applehorn, now sit down with your classmates" said the teacher before they heard a crash and the screams of the student Clement just healed
"I'm not healing him again" said Clement frowning and the teacher shrugged before assigning another student to heal the student
And Clement spent most of the class in the learning half of the group as other half of the students dealt with patients, after he dealt with one more patient
He was thankful his patients weren't the ones who vomited all over the place
All in all, class was pretty uneventful
But lunch had it all
Clement left his classroom with little to no enthusiasm and went to have some lunch
After grabbing his not so enticing meal, he sat at a table calmly before noticing the bunch he bumped into before class
He, having nothing to do to pass the time, decided to watch them, and man were they bad at hiding things
Eating? While disguised as an abomination? Inside of a cafeteria during lunch?! That was stupid, but now he at least knew for a fact that it wasn't an abomination
And seeing the Blight girl so angry about it, he knew it meant their trick worked...somehow
He decided to follow the Blight after the teacher told her to go to the principal's office
"That thing ate food, it's not an abomination!" Said Amity trying to explain her actions to principal Bump
"Now calm down Amity, are you sure of what you saw?" Asked Bump in a serious tone as stared Amity in the eyes
"Yes!"
"I can confirm that" said Clement entering the principal's office
Why was he helping her? It was not out of a cliche sense of justice or anything, it was because he hated cheaters and liars more than anything else, they ruined his life after all
"...Well, if two of the top students saw it, then it must be investigated" said Bump standing up from his chair and walking to the door and walking through it "follow me"
And the two did as they were told and calmly followed Bump
"Who are you? I feel like I've seen you before" said Amity narrowing her eyes as she eyed Clement
"I heal the grudgby team after matches" said Clement frowning "and being it's former captain means you must've seen me a few times"
"That...makes sense" said Amity with a hand on her chin before Clement nodded
The two stayed silent during the rest of their walk to Willow
And once they made it there, Clement watched as Bump tried to dissect Willow's "abomination" only for it to run away with Willow
Clement decided to sit this one out, Bump and Amity should be able to deal with them
He walked through the halls of Hexside with his usual frown, thankful that the way to his locker wasn't blocked
But before he could reach it, he saw large vines grow and crawl all over the school walls
Clement walked towards their source and saw a gigantic plant that made it's way all over Hexside
He saw it's maker, Willow, his frown grew as he saw the fake abomination escape and Willow not get punished as Bump admired her plant magic
He forced himself to forget about it believing it wasn't worth it to try and force punishment
He quickly made his way to his classroom to heal the ones injured by Willow's giant plant, which were thankfully few
That was one of the worst school days for Clement
Another reason to want to graduate early
Clement open the door to his house silently with his ever present frown
His father noticed him immediately
"Hey! Clement" his father said with forced cheer "how was school today?"
"Awful"
"Are you staying downstairs again?" Asked his father in a sad tone, dropping the cheerful act he displayed a few seconds ago
Clement nodded and his father approached him before putting a hand on Clement's shoulder
"Please, don't push yourself too hard, okay? I don't want to lose you too" said his father worriedly and Clement silently brushed his father's hand off before grabbing a large plate of food and heading downstairs
And once he made it there, he stared at the bars that seperated the two halfs of the basement, and suddenly a giant salamander like beast with sharp claws and teeth charged the bars roaring, trying to catch Clement in a mad frenzy
Clement didn't even flinch, he saw that scene one too many times, Clement calmly summoned his staff, it's palisman was a dark blue frog
Clement aimed his staff at the beast and fired a beam of energy at it, the beast roared and screamed as it's body shrunk until it had a shape reminiscent of a female witch before it grew again to the point of looking like a beast but still recognizable as a person
"Shh, it's okay, I'm here" said Clement approaching the cell and the beast immediately bit Clement's hand, but he didn't react even as his blood rained on the floor from hand, he just started petting the beast "it's okay mom, I'm here"
The beast slowly loosened it's jaws and calmed down
Clement stared as his bloodied hand before simply healing it
He snapped his fingers and some books appeared out of thin air
He spent the rest of the day reading and studying next to the beast
