Writer's POVA brunette hid in the bathroom for fear of what she had done.She didn't mean to but she had almost drowned her best friend in the bathroom after gym class.Biting her fingers was the only thing the poor girl could do until she was certain that her best friend would live."You didn't do it." She said to herself, staring back at her reflection in the mirror.She had bitten her fingers so hard and so deeply, she now chewed down on her flesh.Her face was white from fear and her mascara was nothing but a disaster around her eyes."No!" She suddenly pointed at her reflection while wiping away her tears with her free hand."The shower was on, someone had left it on. You have absolutely nothing to do with what happened to Marvy. It was an accident and you were just unfortunate to be there."She almost believed her words until she broke down in tears, falling on her knees in the bathroom.She didn't want to believe it but somewhere deep in her heart, she knew what she had done.

Landon just stares at me for a while before he laughs."It wasn't a joke, Landon. I'm requesting that you break into the flame elemental facility." Why would he take this as a joke?"There's no way I'm doing that, Kastian. You have no idea what I risked to get you into the facility the other day. Another Special who wasn't under the influence of my illusion might have come and we would have been jinxed, you especially. Worse? The Principal could have come." He's no longer laughing.There is nothing but pure anger in his eyes as he speaks."If he had nothing to hide, he shouldn't be concerned that we snuck into the facility." I blurt out the words just before I'm able to stop myself.The angry expression on Landon's face changes into suspicion."The Principal doesn't have to hide anything. The rule does not let any Special be there unnecessarily. It's where injured Specials receive healing after returning from missions." The look on his face does not match the tone of his voice.He loo

Writer's POVAfter they had successfully brought Nancy to the academy, Ivan returns to the Principal's office to give his report."What are those?" Ivan asks as he makes his way into Callin's office.The Principal lazily takes his eyes off the paper he's writing on and brings his attention to the stack of folders Ivan is pointing at."Research for a certain Special who wouldn't give away how he's supposed to win a fight without exactly fighting to the one Special who is unfortunately interested in helping him." Sarcasm drips from Callin's tone but it doesn't bother Ivan."You do not need to know, trust me." Ivan takes a seat."I understand that you are skeptical about my plan–"Before Ivan is able to speak further, Callin cuts him short, "If you think you understand that plan of yours that I have no idea of then I assure you that you are very wrong. You have no understanding of my skepticism."Ivan considers the Principal for a while.Whenever they went on missions, they always talked

A while later, we were still green fists against red fists.I was throwing back half as much punches as he was.Whenever he threw a punch, I didn't dodge it, I merely blocked it with my green flame.If there was anything I have achieved during our short fight, it was that I had learned to use green flames for both attacking and defending.I wiped off the beads of sweat from my forehead.It came at me with an unmistakable whirl speed but I was faster thanks to my speed abilities.I caught it hand midair and punched it hard in the gut.It bent over in….. wait…was that pain?Well, whatever made it bend over like that didn't last for long because soon, it attacked me with its other fist.I imagined a shield and burning red flames wove into a shield to protect my face from getting burned.I pushed it when I could, creating distance between us.I didn't just want to keep fighting, I needed a way to end this damn fight once and for all without giving up.I refuse to give up this time, not wh

Kastian's POVI stepped out into the hallway, expecting to see Landon waiting for me as always but he wasn't there.Was he probably still in class?Someone from his friend group, luckily for me, walked into the hallway.He seemed in a hurry but nevertheless, I stopped him."Hey." He jumped back in fear when I approached him."I just wanted to ask about Landon." I put my hand up at once, startled that I had startled him."Oh, Land." He sighed, placing his hands on his knees like he's been running for too long.I guess everyone called him Land.There was a temporary look of fear in his eyes but before he blinked it away, I saw it."Did something happen?" I asked him but he shook his head almost immediately."Hey," I tried to reach out to him but he took several steps backward, with a suspicious look in his eyes.What could have possibly happened to Landon?Slowly, he took the same steps back to me; closer to me.He considered me for a while before speaking."He went up against a B-grade
