Dark Nebula Institute

by SilverSwirls

I sat down on the edge of my bed, my stomach turned as I began to think of why I was here at this special institute. just weeks before I had gotten into a fight with this stuck up girl, just me tackling her down and that was it. But she claimed I beat her with a rock, my parents thought I was some kind of psychopath and sent me here. but this place seems almost like a horror film.

17. Chapter 17

I plan on re-naming this story, but cannot think of anything good to name it. If you guys have any ideas please help, I've never been good with titles.

Enjoy.

The next morning Zeo had woken up after giving Hikari a proper send off. He had buried her near one of the trees at the base of the cliff side and left some wild flowers. He continued up the trail in his human form. As he walked he felt grief wash over his mind. What if Hikari was enjoying life protecting the shrine? What if killed and gave her no favor of ending her loneness? Would that make him a…Murderer? He played with toby's broken pendant.

When he finally made it to the shrine he sighed in relief to find no one else guarding the large building. Inside was spotless thanks to Hikari. He sighed and walked towards the main room. The room was large with orangey beige walls and oak wooden floors. The windows had tan curtains blocking the sunlight. In the center of the room Zeo found the locked glass case that contained it. The artifact Zeo had been seeking looked like an old wooden music box. It really was one of Ziggurats old experiments. It acted as a present day Pandora's Box (Actually a large jar containing all the evils of the world.) Zeo took out a silver key from his pocket and unlocked the case. After retrieving the artifact Zeo tucked it safely into his bag.

When Zeo left the shrine he was greeted by a burgundy-pink haired boy. "Jack, what are you doing here? You were supposed to take care of them at the river."

"Yeah, well things didn't go as planned" He pouted, "but once Damian finds them they'll be toast."

"So you decided to come see me?"

"Just making sure that you were doing your job, after all you've always had trouble in the past." Zeo glared at the olive eyed boy.

"Shut up." Jack laughed and quickly moved to grab Zeo bag, Causing Zeo to fall over also allowing Jack to pull it from over his shoulder.

"Let's see" He rummaged for a moment before pulling Pandora's Box out, "Let's see just how this thing works."

"Don't open it!" Zeo snapped and grabbed Jacks leg to pull him down.

"Get off!" Jack held the box out of reach. The two were so busy rolling around in the dirt that they hadn't noticed the arrival of Tempest, Nami and Namu.

"I want to roll around in the dirt too!" Namu exclaimed before diving onto the two boys.

"Idiots…I'm working with idiots…" Nami sighed.

I 'm sorry for such a short chapter, but next chapter will tell more about Jin and Tidus, maybe Yami too.
