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

Writer's POVCallin and Langrid were now at the gate.While Langrid doubted that there was any need for them to go, the Principal strongly believed that they would get the answers to all that they needed to know."Zenin is dead, Callin." Langrid sighed, frustrate at the Principal's decision to go."Until I see for myself." Callin responded."It's been almost two decades since his death. There would be no sign of his death anywhere there." Langrid almost yelled at Callin.They were friends but the latter still had more power so Langrid still respected him for being in that position.Without giving his partner an answer, he walked through the gate.Frustrated and unwillingly, Langrid followed.Their next location was Earth.Once, the ordinary humans had found out about the Special humans and their abilities.They kidnapped one of them and had started experimenting on them.The experiments had gone on for a much longer time before the academy finally located the location of the experimen
Academy for Specials; The Ash Legacy CHAPTER 24
The screen appeared in front of me, displaying my exercise routine for the evening.Wrong timing.I badly wanted to ignore it and go in search for loser but I couldn't.I wanted to get stronger so I was going to grasp every opportunity.I changed my plan and did my routine before heading to my dormitory.Luckily, I found him by my door, I didn't have to search for him."We begin today. Right now." I informed him and he nodded.I needed to have one sparring session with him before asking him for his abilities because I needed him to trust that I wasn't going to bail out on him after I had used him."I know a good training ground." He started moving ahead of me and I followed.We walked until we reached an open space.Where was this?"It's the most hidden training ground in the academy."I knew why he had chosen here, he didn't want to get caught by his friends, with me."It's large." I admitted."It is but it's not the largest."If this wasn't the largest, I could only imagine what the

"No longer coming?" Landon asked when I remained glued to a spot.I read the words on the screen over and over again.There was a room under this building."You can leave, I'll be right behind you." If I indeed found something, I wasn't going to let Jim know about it."You'll be caught, Ash. No way I'm leaving you behind." He crossed his arms under his chest stubbornly."For someone who hated me, you do care." I smirked at his decision not to leave me behind.Maybe he wasn't a loser after all.He mumbled something under his breath that sounded like, "I never said I hated you, alright?""I'll be right behind you, Landon." I repeated.I needed him to leave now so I could check the building.He still hesitated."I mean this, Landon, I'll be right behind you. I won't tell your friends anything about our deal and I'm not going to back out, I assure you."Maybe the reason he didn't want to leave me behind was because he didn't want the training to stop or he was afraid that if I got caught,
Academy for Specials; The Ash Legacy CHAPTER 26
Writer's POVMicah had returned to the facility Janel was being treated in.She waited for a while before he finally regained consciousness.He might be a highly ranked psychic user like her but he healed differently from her."Took you long enough." She walked into his recovery room.He grinned when he saw her.She never visited him except he had gotten injured during a mission yet, here she was."Seeing you here makes me want to believe you might have found a new interest in me." He greeted back, sitting up.She leaned on the door frame for a while before deciding to walk in."Don't believe it, Janel. That's just your own mind playing tricks on you. That's rather disappointing of a psychic user to be played by his own mind. Don't worry, your secret is safe with me." She sat in front of him.This had always been their way of conversing."Why are you here?" Janel asked Micah after they had teased each other for a while."You know why I'm here, Janel." She got pissed at his pretense o

The large space that turned out to be the secret room, surpassed my expectation.There were two beds on either side of the room with something attached to both beds, linking them.There were big screens around the room just like the one that scanned me.The room was dirty with cob webs hanging around to show the room had not been in use for a long period.Tiny insects crawled around the room.They didn't look like ants or cockroaches. I didn't expect to see any of those in another Universe anyway."Crazy." I breathed, walking further into the room.By the side of one of the beds, there was a metallic box.I walked straight to it."Zenin." I read out loud.It was labelled.Zenin must have been the owner of this bed and everything in this box must belong to him.The Principal had discussed some experiment with my parents.This must have been the place the Principal tested my mother's prototype on Zenin.Why would he do such a thing?She was a Q-grade Special while he was a C-grade.The
Academy for Specials; The Ash Legacy CHAPTER 28
Writer's POVThe image of the boy Micah had seen, stuck to her head.Even as she walked out of the room, she couldn't stop thinking about him.Every image of him had been taken out of the academy.If she hadn't looked closely, she would have never seen his face in that picture.The Principal definitely forgot to take that one out.He couldn't risk anyone finding out about Zenin, especially the ones whose memory of the boy, he had wiped out.Micah knew she couldn't confront the Principal on who the boy was.If he had decided to hide the identity of the boy then he wouldn't want anyone finding out what he had hidden.So, going to him was not a good idea.Micah eventually decided to go to Magda.She didn't trust Langrid as much as she didn't trust the Principal and Janel would never agree to do anything the Principal wasn't pleased with.With the picture she had seen, Micah began to reconsider the true true purpose of the academy.As expected, Micah met Magda preparing for her next missi

CHAPTER 104
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
