Academy for Specials; The Ash Legacy CHAPTER 15
By the time I returned to my dormitory, there were chants and cheers everywhere.I didn't want to care initially but the noise kept getting louder."I bet my lunch tomorrow, he's going to take him down!" Someone laughed, throwing his hands in the air and chanting as the noise continued.What the hell was happening?I tried to move past them to my ward but they kept pushing me down, caring less for me and more for whatever was making them shout like that."What's going on?" I resorted to asking."Oh, it's the ordinary Special." Some boy laughed, calling his friends to join him."Don't you know your nickname. Wow, what a shame." One if his friends laughed."You're pretty popular around here man and you don't even know it. Shame." He shook his head, laughing loudly along with the other boys.I was so mad, I wanted to react but I couldn't.The damn screen appeared with an instruction. Heroes don't hit heroes. You don't fight unless in a fair fight, Kastian.Even though he had said my
Academy for Specials; The Ash Legacy CHAPTER 16
When I woke up the next morning, I took my bath quickly.I checked my time to see that I had enough time to do some exercises before my training session with Magda.It was day two of my training with her and I couldn't wait to see my progress after a month.The screen appeared before me again, showing some daily routines I had to do.I had to do a hundred sit ups, push-ups and lifts.There was nothing in my room that weighed enough to go for a dumb bell so I decided to improvise.I took my other suits and casual wears off the hanger.It was metal so it was strong.Since I had no dumb bell, this would have to do.I started with the sit-ups. They were painful but whenever I wanted to stop, I always thought of how weak everybody here and in Sidon saw me.If there was anywhere that I could have a place, it was definitely here.After I finished the exercises, it felt like my bones were on fire.I sighed, relieved when I saw the blue glow in my vein.The aches stopped just as Micah called o

When we returned to the Principal's office, I was stunned.I knew my mother was a hero but I didn't know she had done this plenty of good deeds.What else could she have done?No doubt, my mother was a good woman and an even better hero.This must be why she had been so uncomfortable with leaving whoever was left behind, behind.I didn't ask the Principal about it anyway."Kastian, your father was a Special even without possessing any abilities but he was still a hero. If he had to jump into the fire to save someone, he would do it not caring the slightest for his lack of abilities.""I understand that you feel different not being able to use a prototype that should make you the strongest but that doesn't mean you can't be a hero." He returned to his seat as he spoke.He was right.Once, my father had gone into our neighbor's house to fight off the robbers that had attacked them in the middle of the night.Without knives or guns, he had risked his life to save them.I was so young whe

Writer's POVTyreHe closed his eyes, enjoying the influence he was having on the young Ash.Soon, he was going to have him join him and together, they were going to get revenge for being tossed aside just because they couldn't meet up with the standard of the academy."For so long, I have waited for you Kastian Ash. Now, I was going to make sure you never became like them. You will help me get my revenge on every single one of them." He laughed, using his abilities to call another Special to his Universe.All he had to do was close his eyes and summon their minds.When he did that, they became mindless, only giving attention to his command.He had created a gate between his Universe and their planet.Whenever he opened the gate, many of them went through it into his world.Once they were in it, their abilities never worked so even if they regained their minds, they were defenseless against him.He made them his puppets, slowly building an army; his army.They had left him alone and v

Writer's POVBy the time the team returned to the academy, the leader was still in shock over what Markie had said."Are you sure of it, Markie?" He continued asking her even after they had settled down after their return.Markie's response was always a yes.When the time came for the leader to give his report of what had happened during the mission to the Principal, he decided to go with Markie.The Principal was surprised but trusting that the leader had a good reason for bringing one of his team members with him, he let the girl stay."It didn't seem like a C-grade mission at first. It seemed much higher; maybe a B-grade or even higher." He began his narration much to the interest of the Principal."We tested his energy through the portal, it was a C-grade Special mission." The Principal disagreed.Before teams of different ranks were sent out, the psychic users always tested the energy of the Specials causing trouble on earth, through the gate.That was how he always knew what te

Magda furrowed her brows, frowning as if to ask if I had done anything else besides almost burning Ivan alive.I shook my head, telling her that I had no idea what was going on.When we got to the Principal's office, Langrid, Micah and the Principal were all sitted, wearing a serious expression on their faces."Why am I here?" I directed my question to the Principal."We want to check if you sustained more injuries with the lad you fought yesterday." The Principal answered.Micah frowned at me.I hadn't told her nor Magda what had happened yesterday."I didn't sustain any injuries." Even if I had sustained injuries that I didn't know of, they would have healed up already.The screen appeared again in front of me.Threat. Activate automatic self defense.What the hell did that mean?I looked around again.None of them seemed like a threat.I didn't trust the Principal and I felt weird around Langrid but Micah was most definitely not a threat."You can't tell." "How can you tell? Your
Academy for Specials; The Ash Legacy CHAPTER 21
Writer's POVThe Principal hesitated before leaving Kastian and going through the portal to where Micah laid.Janel was still unconscious so Micah was his only hope in finding out what had happened.Langrid went with him."We were only gone for a split second so as not to distract you and Janel. What on Lath happened there?" The Principal asked curiously.Langrid had found a way to stop him from going to where Zenin had died.He convinced Callin that if he let Micah and Janel take a peep into his mind, they would be able to let them know what the young Ash knew.But they had failed.Janel had been sure that the young Ash didn't know anything more than they needed him to know.He assured the Principal and Langrid that he had successfully wiped out the memory of whoever Zenin was, from his mind.However, Micah had been reluctant to go into the young Ash's head.She wasn't afraid of what was going to happen should she try to get into his mind again like she did the last time.She just di
Academy for Specials; The Ash Legacy CHAPTER 22
A boy a little older than me came to inform me that the Principal would have me return to my dormitory.I didn't need the Principal's permission to return to my dormitory.I was going to leave whether he permitted it or not.The boy stared at me and then the blood spilled around, a little terrified as I walked out of the room.I remembered what he had told me about the building."Hey." I turned around swiftly at the door, startling him."Can you take me around the building?" I asked him."It's strictly for Specials who got injured on a mission." "Just for a short while, I wish to see it." I pestered him."I'm afraid I can't do that without the Principal's permission. If you would let me ask him and then he would approve it, I will definitely show you around." He made to leave but I pulled him back.He glared at me with a frown."Don't bother. I'll get to see it anyway when I begin to go on missions."If I continued leveling up at this rate, that was surely going to happen soon.But t

After what felt like a few days, I had gone through the rest of the videos on the flashdrive, taking mental note of the few strategies my parents taught me when fighting using physical and Special abilities. By the time I had successfully gone through the entire flash drive, the laboratory had run out of food. I had already covered the entire books in the laboratory but I was yet to start training with the dummies or even my Special abilities. I didn't know if I was going to get new abilities or if I did, what they were going to be. I went to the training ground to train with the dummies. It was just like fighting Aki, Langrid or Landon except, the dummies already had their moves programmed. Turning them on, I took my stance, ready to train. There was no one to access my progress except the screen which I now understand was the seal created but my parents to protect me. One of the funniest came on and before it attacked me, I quickly attacked it just like my father had explaine
CHAPTER 103
I continued screaming as I kept falling from what I now realize was a building and not a cliff.The mayor had just commissioned the building project before the day of my examination.Just how long had I been away from Earth for the building to have been completed so fast? Do not fall."What the hell?! I'm falling already!" I screamed at the screen as I continued to fall.No one could see me nor hear me so no one was coming to save me.No one would know when I fell and if I died which I knew I would, falling from such a height."Breathe, Kastian. Just breathe." I closed my eyes and tried to block out the fear.Aki had said that I could create absolutely anything with flames.If I could create a flame version of myself then creating something to save myself shouldn't be difficult."As long as you can think it, you can make it, Kastian." I repeated those words a few more times until I felt heat on my fingertips.I imagined a parachute made of flames and immediately something pulled me
CHAPTER 102
Eager to know what deal my mother had made with the Principal, I clicked on the next video.It was still just my mother in the next video."Hi, Kastian. Knowing how curious children are, I know you must have eagerly clicked on the next video. You know, sometimes, I doubt that you would be the one to find this place and the flash drive but I believe you will be strong enough to find it all." She smiled.I was tempted to skip the other parts of the video until I found the part where she spoke about the deal she must have made with the Principal but I didn't.Every detail was important and I didn't want to miss it."Callin wanted control." Finally!"From the moment I saw him on Earth when I saved him, I knew he was going to develop an obsession with control. It was a good thing he wasn't strong enough to to on missions.""When the disease broke out, it went on for a while until he said he could help. Desperate, I took his help. As much as I wanted you to understand how bad it was, I neve
CHAPTER 101
Writer's POVAs Landon stabbed Ivan with the needle, his eyes went wide open."Get away from him." Callin whispered, watching how Ivan arched his back and moved his body in the creepiest way.Landon was terrified and in shock to even move an inch."Get the hell away from him!" Callin screamed and Landon quickly moved away, shaping out of the shock."What is happening?" Landon asked Callin.The portals had closed and the knives had stopped flying at the Principal.He could barely stand with knives all over his body."I don't know." Callin was confused.When he had worked on Zenin, nothing of this sort happened."What the hell is that supposed to mean?!" Landon screamed at the principal, watching how Ivan's body kept bending in the weirdest angles."I've never worked on anything like this before. It's….. it's…. It's insane." He stuttered."You've worked on something like this before? With who?" Landon was beginning to understand why Kastian always asked him questions that made him doubt
CHAPTER 100
Writer's POVLangrid rushed back into Kastian's room, looking all ruffled up."What's it like out there?" Landon asked Langrid, curious.It sounded like real chaos from inside Kastian's room, he dreaded stepping out."You're about to find out." Was Langrid's only answer as he handed out their communication materials to each of them."So," he was interrupted by a loud bang outside Kastian's room.He only spared the door a glance before speeding up with his explanation."There have been changes of plans. We are canceling out Aki destroying the laboratory and my part to find out what Callin knows. What's out there is probably going to destroy the entire school. What we feared the most has come for us, we don't not need anything else that Callin knows." He rushed his words.Aki took the ear plugs from Landon to help him with it.The latter struggled with it as fear ate deep into his bones.Over the length of time he had been in the academy, they had been made to believe that no one could
CHAPTER 99
Writer's POV"That was a strange plan, Langrid. It could have fucked us up." Aki didn't believe the plan was going to work.Nothing he believed seemed to work these days; from letting Magda go on that mission believing she was going to come back, to believing Kastian was actually going to win his fight with Ivan, free and fair."Yet, here we are with knowledge no other Special knows." Landon was still a nervous wreck."You look like shit." Everyone could clearly see Landon shaking yet, Aki purposely pointed it out."Leave the kid, Aki, would you?" Micah rolled her eyes."So, where do we go from here, Langrid? We have enough knowledge really worth having our memories wiped out this time." Micah turned to Langrid."The real transfer of the prototype into Ivan's body has not begun. It's only been tested on him to check if he can survive having such powerful prototype in his body. The Principal is not going to return to Ivan until the next two days or tomorrow, if he's curious to know how
CHAPTER 98
FLASHBACK"I'll keep Kastian's friend at bay. He might cause some trouble if he's left unwatched."Friendship.That was the only possible relationship between Kastian and Landon that Micah, Aki and Langrid believed caused Landon to react the way that he did over Kastian's death."We'll meet here tomorrow and share information. It's not about us this time or just the people close to us that have been affected but about the whole of humanity. This is us truly being heroes.""Keep me at bay?" Landon scoffed, joining them."Shit!" Langrid cussed."I didn't cover us with Stealth.""How did you get away from your friends?" Micah asked, stepping closer to Landon."D-grade Special illusion user." Landon straighted his shoulder and stood proudly."Although, I'm pretty sure the ranking system made a horrible mistake leaving me in the D-grade." He muttered but loud enough for them to hear."You cannot be here, kid. You should leave." Aki told Jim off and Landon huffed."You think you're the only
CHAPTER 97
Writer's POV"If we let him walk out of here, other Specials are going to find out his memory has been wiped and by other Specials, I mean Micah. We don't know for sure what he has told them." Ivan never took his hands off Langrid's head as he spoke."We'll keep him with us. Now that he doesn't remember anything about them, he's going to help us with the experiment." The Principal opened a portal and nodded at Ivan.The latter didn't take his hands off Langrid's head immediately.He still doubted that it was a good thing leaving Langrid alive."Let him go, Ivan. If I say he's going to help us then he will." The Principal instructed Ivan sternly.He still hesitated but eventually took his hands off Langrid.Once he was free, he looked back and forth at the Principal and Ivan."Why are you both staring so weirdly?" He frowned, moving closer to the portal."You declined joining us for the experiment on me." Ivan decided to test if they could really go on without killing Langrid."Stop foo
CHAPTER 96
I clicked on the next video but it was just my mother in this one."Hi Kastian. It's day three of the Ash Experiment. Your father is monitoring the process of the seal. If it isn't successful then my internal organs will show signs of irritation. While he's at it, I decided to tell you everything about the first mission of the academy and how that changed the academy.""Together with the psychic users, we discovered that a planet called Karile held dangerous energy. Your father was a bit skeptical about the whole plan to go to Karile and check it out."She smiled and looked sideways like she was avoiding getting caught saying the words she was about to say, "To be honest, soldier, I was equally terrified."She straightened her back, "But of course, I hid it from your father. I couldn't let him see my doubt if I wanted him to get out of his own doubt and trust my plan.""I couldn't blame him since I was scared too. Just because we survived on Lath didn't mean we could survive on other
