Chapter Seven: Colour Academy
Black's POV
I trembled as I stood before the class, enduring the pure awkwardness and embarrassment of having more than sixty eyes plastered onto me like super glue, never loosing it's gaze for even a split second. I held a smile across my soft, white face and stared at the back of the class, making me look a bit confident but in reality, I was completely petrified. The eyes are more than enough to send one spiralling down to insanity in a dozen ways. Argh...
I remember doing this four times in my old school, but every time gets worser and worser! The entire class room had a strange, peaceful, luxurious feel to it, countering my anxiety and bone trembling fear...
But this classroom, wasn't the small ones I was used to... It was MASSIVE! Literally! I had to look up at an angle in order to see the students that sat behind a brown, curved desks that were polished to shine and represent this school gloriously. There were three rows of them, the top held the 'A' people. Meaning the 'Best of the Best'. You don't even need to ask them who they are. Only a simple glance is more than enough for you to know who and what they are.
The walls were painted pale white, having a smooth, non-reflective surface as the ceiling was lined up with many cylinder light bulbs that illuminated the entire room to the max, almost making shadows non existent except in areas where the light can't reach. Under me is a good example.
On the second row, were the 'B' people, the 'Professionals'. People who know what they're doing and how to fight but are nowhere NEAR the level of what the 'A' people are on.
Finally, there's the bottom row. The 'C' people... And that's where my friends sat along with the majority of the people. The 'Rookies'... A perfect title for me...
"This is Black Melody. She is fifteen years old and is a very timid person. Please take care of her", Our teacher stated aloud from my right, instantly making me flush a deep shade of red before I twitched out of embarrassment... I'm no good in front of a crowd, but, if it's something serious, then it becomes no problem at all. Like the fear complete vents out of my very being. "She is the twin brother of Frost Richtofen. As the description goes, he is a terrible brother and abuses her... Wait, what's this?!", he exclaimed his last phrase in shock.
"What?", I heard someone whisper from within the classroom.
"Abused? What kind of a brother is he?", a female student asked in a loud whisper.
"D...don't get the wrong idea!", Frost exclaimed, rising from his seat that was to the far right, three spaces away from the edge. His face burnt with embarrassment and shock to what he had just heard.
"Huh?", I answered to myself, burning up in embarrassment as my breathing slowed down as my heart began to a he slightly... Abused? And what description the teacher talking about?!
"Anyway... Pushing that aside, I hope you all take very good care of her as she suffers from some illnesses. Slight insanity is one of them", The teacher announced, making my eyes widen in pure shock... Eh?! Who told him tha-
Oh that's right... Our legal guardian, Drago... For crying out loud. If I know him, he's probably trying to make the students here feel some sort of empathy towards me in order to cover up my actions. It's either that or something I've overlooked. I'm certain that it's that...
"How cruel", I heard a female whisper somewhere from the middle row.
"I know! She must've had a hard time to even get into this place!", A male stated with edge from the bottom row, making me sigh quietly to how quickly the situation got out out of hand. Dammit...
"Now, take your seat beside White", The teacher announced, making me quickly erect myself up as straight as a brick wall before turning to my right, staring at the teacher who was surprisingly, no other than the one and only, Coal. I don't know how of why he's here, but, I'm sure as hell that it's because I am AND because of the talk I overheard yesterday.
"What strange names", someone whispered... This year should be fun.
Milk's POV
This is stupid! This was the Colour Academy all along!? Looks like a regular school to me!.. And there's Humans as well!? What is Drago thinking!?
Jace's POV
Eh... I'm dreaming, right? This can't possibly be Colour Academy... IT LOOKS LIKE AN ORDINARY FUCKING SCHOOL!
Star's POV
For crying out loud! What is this!? Colour Academy!? Wait... Where's my rapier!?
Frosty's POV
hmm? Make my own weapon... Oh well. I guess adding some things onto my Death Scythe wouldn't hurt, would it? Haha! I can't believe that the others are here too!
Black's POV
Alright... I guess I'll have to make some upgrades on my current Night's Melody since it's a blade right now and NOT a mini gun or a weapon of mass destruction... But, if I play my cards right like what Drago told me, then I'll be able to materialise it from the very thin air once I'm in one hell of a situation. After all, I have many abilities and moves I haven't learnt yet. So far, the first few normal ones I HAVE learnt are Insanity, Black Veins, Cannibalism and that's about it. However, for my Ultimate moves, I only have the Night's Melody Finale. But that's in firing mode... I wonder what it'll be for the blade mode.
Damn, I'm getting carried away! I better build this fast as I have already wasted an hour of my three to build this... Alright! Let's do this! Let's see just what I'm capable of!
I sat in front of a touch screen, light blue monitor that held the blue prints of my mighty blade. It was attached to a massive, white, metallic structure that looked futuristic. The room I was in was quiet cramped to be honest. We were nearly shoulder to shoulder with one another on these EXTREMELY comfortable dark blue office chairs that actually had back support. Damn. This school must be jam packed with money! To my left, was a girl unknown to me. She had pleasant black hair and wore something similar to me, except the colours were off by a mile and a half. Green miniskirt and a light blue top with a picture of a black music note that looked extremely shiny and glossy.
To my right, was no other than Chaos. She wore a jet black miniskirt with red outlines at the tip, a black zipper hoodie and a black shirt underneath. Her shoes were identical to mine in every aspect. Both girls smiled happily, touching and flicking at their screens as the room's atmosphere smelt like perfume but the noise was ridiculously loud! And by loud, I mean REALLY damn loud. I don't know if any of them have every heard of whispering... Argh! I sighed in annoyance, staring at the glowing light blue screen with my strange, multicoloured eyes with boredom.
Currently, my Night's Melody is INSIDE of this big, white, metallic structure that was in the shape of a massive cylinder. Hmm... What to do... On my screen, were the white drawn lines of my mighty blade that'll be made with the very materials used to make Night's Melody... I had second thoughts about it, but when I remembered that it was Drago who sent us here, I knew I'd trust him with my life. Damn! This is so stressful!
"Only a minute left", Chaos sighed in relief, leaning back on her chair like she had ran a marathon without taking a single breather. "What did you make?", She asked me, making me look to my right, staring into her eyes before rubbing my back against the comfortable, dark blue back of the office chair to suit the position I was currently in.
"A sword", I said simply and innocently.
"Same. I'm sticking to the breaker classed blades. But be warned, fighting up close with be one hell of a thrill ride", She said with a smug face, showing me just how confident she was with her creation.
"I hope I'm not the first one to taste that blade", I joked, lightening up the mood as she changed her smug face into a more happier and friendlier one that made her look like a completely different person...
"Don't give me that face. You'll kill me with your adorableness", She whispered, giving me a wink with her right, red eye which made me flush a bright red as I jolted up in slight embarrassment. "So that's effective against you. Hmm. I'll remember that", She chuckled...
"TIME'S UP! PLEASE HEAD TOWARDS YOU'R TEACHER TO RECIEVE YOUR WEAPONS YOUNG WARRIORS!", A voice exclaimed EXRUSIATINGLY loud, causing my ears to strain and almost bleed to how high the decibels were. I grunted silently in pain, clenching my fists as Chaos did so as well. Damn... Thing's can't get any worse!
The next up in the line, after a whole thirty minutes of waiting, is finally me! Behind me, were obviously Frost, White, Sino and Chaos due to the fact that we wield such legendary weapons... Er... Except for Sino. But since she's one of our closest friends, she too had to stay back. We stood in front of a huge, completely mind boggling opening that allowed a mass amount of white, blinding light consume my vision upon looking out, causing me to cringe at times.
Coal stood in front of me, shading me slightly as endless bursts of air kept on bashing at my face with full force, causing both my attire and jet black hair to flutter behind me magically while I kept a smile across my face, staring into his golden eyes that reminded me so much.
"Black Melody, I present to you", He began with s tone filled with passion and happiness, turning around for a split second before spinning around once more, now holding a beautifully made, black blade that had red and white stripes running down it lengthways. It was in the shape of a broad sword, but only was it longer. My eyes widened to how gorgeous it looked. The handle was completely black and was made of what looked like hard leather, polished and cut to the max... Wow... It reminded me so much about my Ezarca but at the same time, was NOTHING like it... This blade, is pure darkness. In between the handle and the blade, was a star-shaped black crystal with the tips of the spikes fitted with a white crystal, cut finely and shines beautifully in the blinding light... "Black's Song", He announced, making me look up at him with a bright smile as my heart began to beat as fast as steam powered pistons, smashing at my metal-like ribcage with the force of a thrown sledge hammer... He smiled back at me, closing his eyes slightly before tilting his head to the right.
"Thank you", I thanked.
"No problem. Take your blade and step into the blinding light. The person nearest you will be your opponent", He explained to me. I blinked, feeling the water in my eyes intensify as the wind kept on battering me like I was it's playmate. Slowly, I looked down and gently reached for the handle with my right hand, wrapping my fingers around it before finally pulling it away from his possession. "Oh and remember, killing is strictly forbidden. But mortally injuring one is allowed as we use magic to heal the patients up in no time. Anyway, the only fight that'll be held today will be yours. Don't keep em waiting".
"Right. I'll show them!", I exclaimed happily, giving him a nod before turning around, holding the blade tightly in my right hand. I gave my friends a bow... Wait, where's Chaos? I could've sworn that he was here a second ago... Oh well! "Cya guys!", I said, spinning around once more and quickly walked towards the blinding light that was not a meter away from me... All it took, was a mere two steps...
White's POV
Me, Chaos, Frost and Sino sat beside each other on the front row of the massive, oval-shaped arena. The ground was completely made out of nothing but mere concrete and the walls were at least fifteen meters high, meaning that we had to look down at an angle to see the two fighters. This school, was massive. There were sections of it to what I've been told. This is what colour academy is all about and right now, were in the battle section. The stands were made out of comfortable, light green, leather couches that felt really good on my butt and back as I've been slouching on that damn build-a-weapon thing for the entire duration. We were seated on the middle half of the stadium, making us one of the luckiest in the entire school as this was the PERFECT place to observe the stadium. Everyone cheered for them, throwing popcorn around from their white, cardboard buckets as the smell of hot dogs and coca cola invaded my nostrils harshly, but I paid no heed... I want to see how well Black can fight. I want to know how she fights and what her weaknesses are.
Oh. There she is! She suddenly appeared from seemingly nowhere from the left, holding her blade in her right hand tightly beside her as she stared off at the other side of the field with what looked like a smile plastered across her face. I turned to the right, looking at the her opponent which too, was a girl. She had two long blue pony tails on either side of her head that were tied up with white thread and she wore a dark blue dress that fell to her knees. The tips of her dress were coated with razor sharp spikes that glistened and shined in the sunlight that watched over us from up high in the clear, light blue sky. She wore light blue socks that reached mid thigh and her shoes were dark blue boots that only made it an inch past her ankles... But the scary thing about her, was her intimidating weapon that she held in both her hands...
A large, devastating, dark blue sniper riffle and on her back, was a dark blue blade, glowing with energy and power... Blue...
"THIS IS IT!", A voice boomed enthusiastically as the whole crowd erupted in cheers of anxiety and awe to their weapons. Ouch... "This is the opening ceremonial battle between two new students! The rules are simple, you can do whatever you want but you are NOT allowed to kill one another!"... That's a relief. "NOW! To the bottom of the field, we have Black Melody! A new student who's been nothing but a sweet heart to the school! And to the top of the field, we have Blue Chrome!"... WHAT!?... "THE GAME WILL BEGIN IN TEN SECONDS!"...
That girl, is no ordinary girl... She's Blue Heart...

Colour Plane
Upon entering the forbidden lair of the blue castle, I walked down a dark blue rug that reached down all the way towards her. Blue, the fine girl who sat on a throne made of the most finest blue jewels, holding her blade in her right hand as I continued to walk up to her, feeling nothing at all. Not even fear...
I stopped, quickly extending out my right hand to her, making her jolt slightly in shock as she probably thought that I was going to kill her... She smiled at me, making me smile as she slowly got off of her throne and walked up to me, holding out her right hand dearly with her pleasant smile... Will she take it, or will she use this golden opportunity to capture me once and for all?... No... I trust that she'll make the right choice, after all, I'll be her very first friend...
"Blue is calm and co-o-rect. But it the reason behind Depression", I sung in my head...
