"Hey! D-did he just defeat Josh?! But how? How is that even possible?!""How am I supposed to know?! I don't even know the guy!""Wait, don't you guys know what this means?"On his watch, the rank that would be displayed had changed, and now, after defeating Josh, Zain had ascended in rank, becoming the sixth strongest student amongst the first years. Almost immediately after everyone else had realized this, their impression and thoughts regarding him began to change.Some of the girls stopped looking at him like he was some disease-carrying filth, and even some of the boys stopped looking at him the way they usually would when he would walk through the hallway.In essence, this victory of his was already making his life at the academy a whole lot easier."Hey, Zain. You did good out there… defeating Josh. Proving to all of us that you're not the weakling that we thought you were," one of the girls had gathered the course she needed to wake up to him and spoke her mind, hoping that he
"Hey! Have you guys noticed that Kayden and Kayla seem to be hanging out a lot lately?""Yeah? And so? They're both high-ranking students. It only makes sense that they would spend so much time together.""Yeah. Do you think that she would ever both wasting her time with a pathetic low-ranked student like you? In your dreams, fool."The students of the academy were busy talking and interacting with one another. They would usually do this once all the classes for the day comes to an end.A group of students were currently discussing about the recent events of Kayden and Kayla hanging out more with each other. A lot of students were wondering why this was suddenly happening, as they believed that a high-ranking student like her would prefer to be with either the second or third strongest, but instead, she chose to associate herself with the forth strongest student.Some were starting to think that the both of them were a thing, but there was currently no way to confirm whether of not thi
Securing A Win(Part 4)In the room where the generals and the agent were holding their meeting, a holographic screen was set up that allowed them to monitor the battle taking place on the outside. While they were talking about what they could perhaps do to help, Agent Nero had her gaze fixated on the screen, watching everything that was happening on the outside.Meanwhile, not wanting to feel like they weren't doing anything to help out in the current situation, the generals were discussing something amongst themselves._________The remaining soldiers left standing had gathered together to launch a final attack at the Shale. Their commander, having only one arm left, but still filled with zeal, rallied them and boosted their morale in the current battle, giving them all the motivation they needed to keep on fighting by being the first to launch a final attack.Still, despite all their efforts, all it took was a simple barrier spell from the Shale to make all their efforts amount to n
"Hey, Stacy! Class will be starting soon! Hurry up!" A girl yelled, holding tightly a bunch of books in her hand as she hurried towards the classroom. Following closely behind her, Stacy was trying her best to keep up with the girl.Ever since her brother had left for military school, the house hadn't been the same without him. The place seemed a lot more empty and quiet without him around since her father would spend most of his time at work. The only time the two of them would get to meet and catch up on things would be at night when he would come back home.Despite that, they weren't able to talk about a lot of things, since he would usually be tired after a long day at work.It was already after one in the afternoon, meaning that their second break for the day had ended, and they were supposed to be in class around this time. Yet, Maya, her friend, wanted to head to the a certain part of the school to catch up with her lover.Stacy, wondering why they couldn't just meet up after s
Kevin held her arm tightly, not wanting to let go despite all her screams and protests. The other students present were waiting in patient anticipation for what he would do next, while Maya was cursing at ger current situation, wondering why she had even decided to stand up for the poor student in the first place.'If only u had kept my mouth shut, I wouldn't be in this situation now,' she thought to herself, feeling the intense grip Kevin had against her arm. 'Bow I have to deal with his anger issues. Why the fuck do I even love a guy like him?!"Looking at the pained look on her face, something in Kevin urged him to loosen his grip around her arm."The next time you go against me like that, things won't end up pretty," he warned her, legging go of her arm.Seeing this, everyone broke out in huge groans and complaints about how he handled the situation."What?! He just let her off just like that!""Kevin, what happened to you?! What happened to that ice king that ruled this school?!"
"Yeah, yeah. Lady Justice, why don't you finish dinner first before heading out to save the world," Jake advised, almost finishing his own dinner. "You don't want to go out there and save the city on an empty stomach now, do ya?"Stacy began to laugh nervously to this remark, scratching the back of her head as her gaze fell upon her dinner."I don't see what's wrong with standing up for people, that's all. And I'm only shy when I don't feel the need to be heroic. It's almost like I have two different personalities," she said, looking back at him."Maybe that'll be your superhero name, Dual Persona. What do you think?" He asked.Stacy looked to be thinking about it before giving him a response."Dad, I don't plan on becoming a superhero. I'll leave that for Kayden. I only want to protect those few people that I care about," she said. "I really don't see what's the point in protecting a bunch of people I don't even know."I know this might make me sound kinda heartless, but that's just h
Protector(Part 3)For a while, Stacy simply sat there on the couch watching television. It wasn't until she felt the urge to do something else that she turned off the TV and headed upstairs to get some chores done. She planned on visiting her friend later in the afternoon, so for now, she would do her chores while listening to some music.As stressful as it was, she was finally done with all the chores for the day. Looking at the time, she realized that it was already twelve in the afternoon. Heading into her room, she got ready and left the house for her friend's place.The previous day, she told her dad that she would be visiting her friend, so he knew not to worry if he came back home and saw that the house was empty.Her friend lived just a few houses away from her, and after walking fir a few minutes, she had made it to her friends house.Since she was getting bored at home she thought it would be best to spebd some time with her friend. The two would also catch up on some impor
Eventually, morning came. It was time for the children living in the city to head of to school. Waking up early, Stacy got up from bed and frrshed up before heading downstairs to enjoy breakfast with her dad. Looking down, he asked her what was wrong, and she began to lament on how much she wished for the previous day to last longer.She was a good student at school, but whenever she gets the chance to spend her day at home, the urge to head of to school the next day completely leaves her body.Jake had made breakfast for the both of them, and before she left for school, she asked about how the case regarding his car getting vandalised was coming along."I haven't heard from them yet. Maybe they're still busy with some things. I'll head over to the station later to ask how the investigation is coming along," Jake replied, almost finishing his breakfast.Once she was done with her breakfast, she made her way to school before the first bell rang. Now, standing in the hallway, she was wa
