I awoke to someone placing a blanket over me, but I did not open my eyes or roll over.

"How is she doing?" That was Opera, had I slept here that long?

"She is studying hard and learning fast. I have no doubt she will at least pass the exam." Kalego was back also.

"I brought her food, but it seems like there is plenty here for her to eat. Suzy informed me she did eat before she fell asleep."

"I was worried when my precious granddaughter did not come home, but it seems she is fine. Do not make her work so hard, she is still new to all of this."

"Yes, Lord Sullivan, and Opera, I am making sure she properly stops to eat."

"Good, or we will have play time." Opera's tone changed.

"No, need." Kalego replied sharply.

"Also, I brought this. She left it at home, it's her only means to properly protect herself if the situation were to arise. Be sure to let her know."

"Alright, I myself am tired, things were not so bad this first night. Two of my students made a fortress and housed many students inside. I am worried for Iruma who has yet to bring in any points."

"Oh, I am sure he will bring the most. He is always full of surprises." Sullivans voice lowered and turned menacing. "We will go then, take good care of her. I would hate to punish someone who brings her harm. Okay, bye, bye for now." His final words were all kiddish and happy again.

Sheesh, I would hate to be on Sullivan or Opera's bad side. If most fear Kalego, and he was afraid of them then I defiantly need to stay a good granddaughter. Eat my food, study hard and get good grades. I heard someone sit on the small single chair next to mine. Suzy was doing morning announcements.

I waited a while before moving and fully waking up. When I sat up, I seen Kalego sleeping in the small high sided armchair with his head propped on a fist. He looked uncomfortable; I probably took his place for sleeping. I laid the blanket over him, and noticed my violin propped up next to him. I placed it on my back and went to the food table to get myself some breakfast.

My stomach was turning, it felt wrong. I knew something was wrong. I felt frantic. What was wrong with me? This is a new place, but that cannot be it. I looked back and forth; I was missing something. I held my stomach, I ate plenty yesterday, nothing unusual. I put the plate down. Why? I walked over to Suzy.

She had been watching all night and was sleeping. I flipped through the cameras trying to find Iruma. He was sound asleep, safe in the trees. I looked for his friends, nothing was off. Why did I get this feeling? I had gut feelings before, and they never stirred me wrong.

I flipped through them all, I did not know all the students, but I did not see anything bad. Was this what I was feeling? There was a commotion coming from a tent not so far away. Was that it? I should investigate. I was allowed anywhere a teacher was allowed. I left the teacher's tent and moved to the forfeit one.

Students were bidding on other students, who they thought might win. I scanned over the crowd. I knew nobody, but one caught my attention. A demon that looked like a lion but more human like. He was defiantly in some of Iruma's pictures. He was talking to a red head woman and was looking very flustered.

I walked up to him, working on a camera. I heard him talking about his incident and how a student is targeting others of the misfit class. The class Iruma was in. Orobus Coco was the student, and he had a mean bloodline ability called trauma. He used it on him, and it was having bad effects almost six hours after the fact.

He was working with someone but did not know who this student was. If they did not know after being in class for nine months, my gut turned. This was it. It had to be. I walked up to them. They stopped dead, staring at me like I did not belong. Something was killing my insides.

"Violin girl. I am Ameri, it is nice to meet you." She held out a hand.

"I am Violetta, a student teacher aid. I overheard. There is something going on here."

"You are telling me; he used his blood line ability on me. I was out on a technicality." He took something out of the Camera.

"Right, you said he was working with someone, but you could not recognize them as a student. Is that correct?"

"Yes."

"Nine months in, would you say you know most if not all students if you saw them?"

"He was wearing a black and white striped shirt with a crown on the front. Purple hair and black teeth."

Ameri crossed her arms. "That does not sound like anyone I know, and I pride myself on knowing every single person as a part of being student council president."

"I need a book with all the students' profiles. Iruma may be next." I was told of his last location and which entrance he used.

I went back to the teacher lounge flipping through day one footage before everyone had entered. I saw only the top of his head, but he was standing behind Orobus. Further in I spied someone place something on Iruma before he went in. Orobus is still hiding this person, only a black and white striped sleeve visible.

I did a search for all the footage Orobus was in. In everything he was always hidden with Orobus in the open. This was it, this had to be, something about him was familiar. The thought of it sending goose bumps down my spine. Could he be a part of this woman's past, the memories of her body sending a reverberation though me. The anxiety I was feeling was danger.

I shook Suzy awake. "Huh?"

"Suzy, do you know a student that looks like this?" I pulled up the images on the screen for her to see.

She rubbed her eyes. "Give me a minute."

"Intruder in the forest."

She snapped awake. "Where?"

"Yes, where?" I jumped, Kalego behind me.

"Look, do you know any student that wears clothes like that? The hair. Seems to loom around Orobus?"

"No, and he is being well hidden.

"Toes here, a finger there. The beginning is the best image, but he is still hiding. Orobus is targeting the misfit class. I heard so from Jazz, he fell victim to his Trauma ability."

"It could be a coincidence. Many students changed outfits for this event."

I rolled my eyes. "Can I talk to you in privet, Kalego." He nodded and we moved to the side. "I woke this morning with a terrible feeling in my gut. I went to find an answer, and this is what is going off like a flashing red light. I think I had been subconsciously watching the monitors. I think he may be a part of six fingers, or some other organization like it."

His eyes furrowed harder than his normal scowl. "How would you know that. It could be an evil cycle coming on."

"I swapped bodies, it was the body reaction to him being nearby. I was wanted by both sides of the coin."

"It is not a lot of evidence. Tonight, I will keep an eye out for this character. Anyways, don't be leaving your Violin at home. Take it with you everywhere you go. Here. Opera dropped this off for you. Have you eaten today?"

"No, the feeling is so bad I'm nauseous."

We continued lessons, but he was called out often. Others picked up on how Kalego and Balam were teaching me and began filling in the spot. The feeling inside would not subside. I took a break, flipping through the cameras. I was not able to find Iruma so easily. He trekked deep in the woods, but Orobus was easier, being just behind him.

I couldn't stand seeing the feet of that thing behind him. Ameri had brought by a book of all the students. We flipped though and nothing was matching up with anything. The personality was not lining up. How could the teachers be okay with this? I was not, protect them all. Whoever this mole was, its target was Iruma. He was human, maybe they knew.

Protect him. Protect someone innocent like him. I opened the teacher's manual, there had to be something I could do. Intruders could be punished up to their life for stepping foot on the property. If that is what I must do, then so be it. I went to the tent where the students resided. I found Jazz; he finished working on the camera. It was flying and he was looking at his phone.

"Can you tune that to send video straight to my phone?"

Jazz held on to the camera. "I was going to use it for that."

"I need it. It is more than a petty get back at a student. A darker force is here." I explained a little, that Orobus was being controlled.

He handed me his phone. "Just take it. If it is for Iruma, I will help with anything."

"Really, thanks. This helps a lot. Allocer, I need you to use your illusion magic to help me get to the grounds. I am still under to many watchful eyes, ones that do not believe me or even the account of a student."

"I can do that, come with me." Behind a curtain, he put his magic on me. "Now you look like the collection people in the booths."

I nodded. We both walked into the forest undetected by others. For such high security it felt a little under protected if I and even this person could get in. I directed him to where I had seen him on the cameras with a map. We flew close before landing in a tree. He looked around.

"I do..."

"Shh. Make no sound." I closed my eyes focusing on all the sound around me. The trees, the wind. Feeling for all the things breaking the sound of nature's music. Orobus was tall, hair would be static. I moved to another branch, landing. Closer, and closer. Until I located him.

I pointed. "There." I mouthed. He turned the camera on, focused on the extra student.

Orobus was being followed by a purple headed demon, wearing black and white. He was just as depicted by Jazz and Allocer. I hummed, along with using his giddy laughing to form a vine. I waited for him to get a little closer. When he was within reach, I shot the vine out. It impaled him in the abdomen.

"I did not see coming." He whispered.

"That was the point." I whispered back. "Get out of here you cannot be seen with me."

I landed down on the ground, humming. Keeping the hold.

"Orobus, help! She is not a teacher or a student. She is infiltrating the game, we will die." He Squirmed.

"Mommy?"

"Eli?" I turned frantically. He was in the corridor of the house entryway.

"Mommy, help me. Mommy!"

He was in the grip of my hands, the woman holding him by a leg. She grinned maniacally, Sniffing up his side. "He smells delicious. Good enough to eat."

"Put him down, he is innocent." I summoned Yodh. "She has him, she has Eli!" He looked beyond and then back to me.

"There is nothing there." Tet replied.

The woman took a bit, Eli screaming. "NO!" I screamed. I ran, watching him get dismembered.

They pawed me to the ground. "There is nothing there. See me." Zayin nudged me. "Trust me." He licked my face. "We are in a forest."

I blinked. The house fading to the forest I was in. Tears were pouring down my face. His dumb trauma ability got me so fast I lost all reality. I hugged him and sobbed. "I hate this place and some of the abilities of others."

"It is alright. We will get him."

"Right." I stood wiping my face. The trees around me had taken some damage. Was that me, him or the illusion? I spotted blood on the ground and pointed. "I impaled the enemy. We must track him now."

I climbed on the back of Yodh, and he took off running. We were able to catch up. This time I played my violin, if he was using manipulation, then I could fight back. It would not be the first time, but was I stronger? I gave soothing tunes, wrapping him in a sound barrier away from him whispering in his ear.

He dropped the Purple haired Demon and walked to the side. Yodh trapped the demon under his Paw. "Now, hold on. We can work something out." He demon squirmed.

I channeled to him instead, putting him in my dream scape of music. He closed his eyes. I forged him a new story, us working together, and I had hit my head. Forgetting what we were doing. In the same forest.

"What was your name?" I sang.

"Ocho, do not worry I will take care of you."

"Who are you working for?" I sang sweetly.

"Sabnock Baal, silly." He laughed.

"The affiliation?"

"The cult of the numeral Two." He laughed again. "People do not believe we exist, but we do." He sang on his own.

"Why are you here?"

"We are here to gather information on the misfit class. It will be a sinch. They have not found us yet; I just need to stay out of sight behind Orobus."

"Crush him, Yodh. He is a threat to the students I am to protect." His torso splattered on the ground, getting on my shoes and bottom of my cloak. "Disgusting vermin."

"I agree." He replied. I put my violin away and flipped jazz's phone open, sending myself the file and deleting it off his phone. I broke the camera and took the chip inside. No potential evidence to leave behind. I searched all the pockets, taking a recorder.

I walked over and crouched in front of a distraught student. He was holding the sides of his head and rocking himself.

"Orobus, are you alright?"

"I was being used, hurting other students and a teacher."

"Hey, it's alright. It is my job to protect you the student as a teacher. I pulled out of it, that is what matters."

"I forfeit." I covered his mouth.

"Hey, you still have two more days, do not do that."

He moved my hand. "I Forfeit. Take me out of here."

"You have potential to pull this off, it was not your fault this happened."

"Violetta, the student is done. Let him leave." Kalego helped him up. "We will talk later."

I put a hand on my hip. "Later?"

"Yes. Dali wishes to here why you snuck in."

I gritted my teeth, eye furrowing. I unsummoned Yodh. "They, you. Fine." I flew off and out of the forest. Messaging Opera on the way. 'I need clothes and shoes, mine are bloody.'

'What happened?'

'Bring Grandpa if possible. I am heading to the teacher tent.' I landed outside the teacher tent, trudging inside. Opera was holding my clothes; Grandpa was all over me.

"My precious granddaughter, are you alright? Are you hurt?" He lifted my arms, spotting blood on my white robe.

"No, you should see the other guy." I took my clothes from Opera.

"Lady Violetta, are you going to explain?" Opera asked.

"Yeah, when Kalego gets here. I need a TV set up for a phone jack." He nodded, and I took the clothes and changed. I had my phone in my hand, emerging to a crowd. Kalego and Balam were in front.

"Any excuse for your actions?" I walked past him, taking a wire from opera, plugging the phone in.

I glared over my shoulder. "Like you did not see the body." I clicked through bringing up the video.

I sat back drinking Hell Grade Tea as they watched the footage. It all was captured. From him skipping around to me killed him. The sound was hard to hear but was loud enough to know what he said.

"He got in, but how." Oswell asked.

"Why did you not say something?" Dali asked.

"I did." I did my research; I am not at fault. I threw the teacher guidebook down. "Section 1 states our job is to protect our students at all costs from the enemy who aims for our treasure. To investigate all suspicious activities. Regardless of how small. This demon was manipulating a student to harm other students and gain information in the process."

I sipped my tea. "We have a much bigger threat than just gathering information on students. The cult of the number two is real, whatever that is. According to Ocho, they are working for Sobnock Baal. I do not know much about politics here, but it does not look good to me."

"How did you figure it out."

"Well, I am not dumb, and I have one killer gut instinct. Suzy the remote please." I smiled brightly at her, and she handed it to me. I clicked through all the images he was in. "Hiding is suspicious, this and a student's encounter. A flip through the student enrolment book, and I could not find anyone wearing what he wore or how he was described." My stomach growled; Operas ears dropped low.

Dali kept his smile. "Then I see we have a formidable teacher among us. There was no fault here and our school is that much safer. We have announcements." He left with Suzy. He was also suspicious. Opera dropped a food container in my lap, as teachers filed out.

"No breakfast or lunch?"

"I was nauseous, my whole body was stricken with anxiety. I solved it, now I can eat."

He sat down, crossing his arms. "I stay until you are done."

I rolled my eyes while taking the first bite of hot food. When I was done, I resumed learning like nothing had happened. Kalego would leave. I slept on the couch, and every morning I would cover Kalego up in the blanket and let him sleep until he awoke. This went on until the last day of the harvest festival.

Blushenko, another professor of Babyls had come in. His face was in a constant furrow. He had returned to the tent after the wave of students who came in at night. He looked just as tired as the rest of them. He walked up to the food table where I was picking out breakfast.

"You most like Kalego a lot to try and take care of him. I am surprised he lets you."

I narrowed my eyes. "We are good friends. He is working hard between the harvest festival and helping me learn for the exam, it is the least I can do for him. All of you are. He and many others are gaining bags under the eyes. Mister luck of the draw passed out leaning on a pole." I pointed behind me to Oswell. "You used all your mana to heal students."

"You pick up on a lot. It astounded me you figured that much out. How?"

"I just woke up with this bad feeling. I subconsciously pick things up. It is a trait I like and hate."

He took a bit of fruit. "How so?"

"I do not like it as I have high empathy. I see you all getting tired and a part of me wants to whisk you all to bed and make you rest. The good thing it brings is I see changes in my environment. Little things others miss." I looked at the table I had been studying at. "Someone moved my books two centimeters to the right of where I left them last night."

We sat down by the table, and I picked up my violin, letting it attach to my back.

"It was me. Two centimeters is correct." He smirked. "Have you figured out your mystery sender with that ability?"

"How did you know I was looking?"

"You like to know things, not knowing bothers you. Might I remind you the incident."

"You are correct." I pulled out the note card I kept stashed in my drawing journal. "Time, thought, and sincerity was put into this." I read it again, grinning. "It was the best gift I could have received."

"Any clues?"

"Well, I was able to cross Grandpa off the list. He boosts about giving me things. I have been putting the search in the back of my mind. Learning all I can before the exam so I can finally join the classroom."

"Well, good luck. What will you do when you figure it out?"

"Easy, thank them, and play a song for them." I smiled, eating fresh fruit.

He looked over to Kalego. "He really does have bags under his eyes. Not as bad as last year. Last year he skipped the ceremony and celebration. Anyways, it is my turn to pick up where they last left off."

"What?"

"Kalego and Balam asked us to help you. I see no reason not to. You are a model student and many other reasons to the long list."

"Thanks."

"Will you be going out with us for drinks after this is all over?"

"I am allowed to do that?"

"Yes, you are considered a teacher. Your… grandpa…. Chair demon Lord Sullivan, is picking up the tab. After what happened, Dali said you are to be invited to all teacher gatherings."

"Then I will go for sure."

He helped finish off the Pharmacology book as Kalego slowly woke up. I had finished torture and astrology and was almost down with everything. The next week would be reviewing everything before Friday when I take the exam with Dali. This was to ensure no favoritism from Sullivan or even Kalego for him helping to teach me all this time.
