Untold Secrets Unfold Pt.2
A/n: FINALLY updated! Enjoy chapter 11!
During the last chapter…
"What is…the darkness?"
----------
"You don't know that the darkness is?" Stellar exclaimed. Cagalli nodded. "Don't they teach you this at all?"
Cagalli shook her head a 'no.'
"Do you really want to know?" Stellar asked.
"Of course I do! If it will help Kira and I get our lives back to normal!" Cagalli replied.
Stellar sighed, Cagalli was desperate to know about the darkness.
"Alright," she began, "the darkness is the remains of people who used their power for evil, and were consumed by the darkness in their hearts."
"Huh?" Cagalli asked, confused.
"Whenever someone uses their power for evil, darkness is created in their hearts. The more the person uses their power for evil, the bigger it becomes until eventually, it swallows the person whole. The persons hearts then joins a greater force of darkness." Stellar explained.
"So…whenever someone uses their power for evil, darkness is born. It consumes the person, and then it looks for a stronger power and joins it?" Cagalli asked to make sure she got it right.
"Yes," Stellar replied.
"But who started the whole darkness thing?" she asked.
"Years ago, a man named Gilbert came to Genesis Psychic Academy, since it has the most psychics in the world."
Flashback
Gilbert was talking to the principal of the whole academy.
"I wish to teach in this academy," Rau said.
"Sorry, but there is no room in this academy for you. I'm afraid that you must find another one." the principal replied.
"I see…" Gilbert said in a dark voice, "very well, I take my leave." He then walked out the door with an evil grin.
Walking down the hallway, he noticed a teacher passing by. He was a tall man with shoulder length blond hair and wore a black cloak. Gil smiled, thinking that he was the perfect disguise. Reaching into his case, he used his powers to disguise himself as a student in the academy.
"Excuse me!" he called out to the teacher in a child like voice.
"What?" he asked.
"Umm…I'm lost. Can you help me find my room, please?" he asked innocently.
"Of course!" the teacher said happily as he took his hand and led him down the hall.
"Where is your room?" the teacher asked, but Gil remained silent.
"Hello?" he asked as he looked at Gil's face. The teacher then backed away as he noticed an evil aura surrounded him, freaking him out.
"Y-your not a student here!" the teacher shouted.
"Just noticed that?" Gilbert said in his dark voice. He then reached out his hands to the man and his aura started to surround him as well. "You need to…go away for a while." he grinned. The teacher screamed as he faded into the darkness. Gil chanted a spell that made him LOOK like the teacher. This way, he can manipulate the students into joining him.
End Flashback
"W-what happened to the teacher?" Cagalli stuttered.
"Never heard from again," Stellar replied sadly.
"Well…then what happened?" she asked.
"Gilbert used the power of darkness to every student that was in his class. The principal began to notice this when evil aura's started to surround them whenever they did something. The students eyes became darker, and their faces became paler. They were nothing but slaves to the darkness. Eventually, the darkness in their hearts grew and consumed them, making Gilbert stronger."
"That's…horrible…," Cagalli stated. She couldn't imagine students to become like that! "How many students disappeared?"
"Nearly the whole school," she replied.
"What did the principal do?"
"Well…"
Flashback
The principal marched into Rau's class in anger. "You!" he stated, "You aren't the ACTUAL teacher of this class!"
Gil grinned, "So, after all this time, you finally figure it out?" He then regained his normal form.
"What have you been doing to my students?" the principal demanded.
"Nothing, all I ever did was manipulate them into thinking darkness is the only way to do anything."
"Y-you monster!" The principal shouted.
"Do you dare to challenge me?" With a snap of his fingers, he changed the room into darkness.
"What!" the principal exclaimed.
"Thanks to you, I shall consume every psychic to make me stronger. Eventually, I'll have enough and my darkness shall swallow everyone and everything! Making me invincible!"
"Not if I can help it!" The teacher had a white aura around him and used every bit of his energy to stop the darkness charging at him.
"Give up," Gilbert said casually as the darkness was beating his power.
"NEVER!" he shouted as he pushed it back with a powerful power, making the darkness disappear.
"What!" Gilbert exclaimed as the darkness started fading away. How could ONE person have so much power? Enough to nearly destroy everything?
"N-now for…you…" the principal struggled as he used his last power to seal him in a room.
"This isn't the end! I swear that I'll come back!" Gilbert shouted as the light faded into him, destroying him.
The principal was out of the darkness, but was about to die. He used too much power that he can handle, costing his life. But he was alright with it because he knew the spirits of his students, whom he cared for very much, were in the realm of life. He fell to the ground. A student who was passing by heard noise in the room and rushed in. To his surprise, the principal was on the floor!
"Mr. Glenn!" the boy exclaimed as he held the teacher. Another teacher came in, and was surprised at what was before her.
"George!" she exclaimed as she kneeled beside him.
"Siegel…since you are my apprentice, I want you to continue ruling the academy. I want YOU to be the next principal. Make sure the future students know nothing about this and make sure that this never happens again," George struggled to say. Siegel, who was a student, nodded with tears running down his eyes. The other teacher as well was crying.
George then closed his eyes as small orbs of light faded out of his body. Eventually, his whole body was gone.
End Flashback
"So…that's how Mr. Clyne became principal…" Cagalli said to herself.
"George was remembered as the principal who tried to overcome the darkness." Stellar added.
"B-but what happened to you and Shinn?"
"After the incident, Shinn and I were in the in the infirmary. The events that happened around Shinn and I happened when Mr. Clyne was about twenty years old, the youngest principal. Lacus wasn't born yet."
Flashback
Stellar was asleep, strapped to the bed though. Shinn too.
"Stellar…Stellar…" she heard someone call her in a weak voice. Stellar slowly opened her eyes and saw Shinn next to her.
"Where are we…?" she asked weakly.
"I-I think we're in the infirmary." Shinn tried to get up, but was stuck to the bed.
"Dow did we get here?" He asked himself. He then recalled an incident in the Practice room and sighed.
"Shinn…I'm sorry," Stellar apologized as she tried not to look at him. Shinn smiled and replied, "It's alright. But I am curious about why your scared of the word 'die'."
Stellar tried to hold down her reaction, and thankfully she did in time to explain. "It's because when I was younger, my family died in a fire. I saw what they looked like after when I found them dead. I was…scared then. Not being able to see everyone and everything that makes you happy. So…that's why I'm pretty scared. You can call me a 'traumatized' person."
"Oh…I see," was all Shinn could say.
"But, I'm pretty okay now. I have Sting and Auel as my brother like family." Stellar giggled a bit. "And I have someone like you as a friend."
Shinn smiled, Stellar was pretty when she smiled and laughed.
"Oh, your awake," said a voice. The two turned their heads around to see a Mr. Clyne standing near the doorway.
"Mr. Clyne!" the two exclaimed, they wanted to go meet him, but forgot they were stuck.
"Mr. Clyne? Why are we strapped to the bed?" Stellar asked innocently.
Siegel sighed, how was he going to explain the situation to them?
"Well, we did an examination on you two after the incident. It seems the shock affected you genes, meaning that it affected your powers." He explained, "for safety, we HAD to do this so you won't be able to do anything, as they call it, dangerous."
"We-we would never do anything bad!" Shinn exclaimed, but Siegel shook his head. "Sorry, but it's for the students safety and ours."
What was going on? What do they mean…dangerous?
End Flashback
"Stellar!" Cagalli shouted as she saw Stellar losing her image. She looked all…hazy like.
"Oh no…! Someone has found me!" Stellar shouted.
"What do you mean?"
"Someone is interrupting my message to you about the past! This person doesn't want you to know anything!" she explained.
"Stellar! Will I see you again?"
Stellar smiled, "Of course. After all, I am inside you." she assured. Her smiling expression soon changed to a serious one.
"Cagalli, you have to wake up now! Or I'll truly disappear!"
"What do you mean?"
"This person is trying to destroy me through your dreams. So if you don't wake up, I'll fully vanish and you'll never save Kira!"
Cagalli nodded as light filled the room, meaning that she has awaken.
----------
"STELLAR!" Cagalli shouted as she popped up from bed. She looked around and found out she was in her own room!
"Stellar…are you still…with me?" she asked as she held herself. There was no answer. "Maybe…she'll appear once I sleep."
She then got out of bed and walked out of the room, her mind still thinking about what happened.
