It felt like Friday was never coming for the friends who were anxious to see their male best friend brought back to fit their description of 'normal state'. Well, it finally came, just as planned the day before, Elena and Vanessa were absent and just like Aires was expecting, the demon in Jason would do everything to impersonate him at a hundred percent, he came to cheer her up by keeping her company until the hour struck for the meeting when his job to apprehend Aires, was cutout for him.When the time had finally come, Aires noticed his switch from brown pupil to red in an almost unnoticeable haste, she knew she had to make her move. There in the corner where they had been sitting alone for nearly fifteen minutes to digest their breakfast at least a little before training session in preparation for the upcoming inter-schools event, Aires decided to speak to his heart, by so doing she had the hope of connecting with him, earning his trust and weakening his hardened heart. She cupped h
During Sportfest every year, magazines containing information about the Sportfest are distributed to all parts of Rocksville to remind people who already know about this event, that it is time to come together, to those who are new to Rocksville like Aires and her mother, these magazines are a way of kindling their heart's to engage in this auspicious occasion which brings the entire town together. On that very year when for the first time ever Sportfest was going to be held in New World High, magazines came out a little late, about two days before the Sportfest. Aires got one to share with her mother on the Monday, which was two days before the event commenced, during diner. She took it upon herself to read it out to her, while they waited for the food to cool down, 'Sportfest' the first page read 'comes once every year. It is characterized by sporting events of all kinds. During this period, every high school student in any school within Rocksville is expected to participate to bring
Usually duringSportfest, the teaching activity by teachers is placed on hold, this is not in obedience to any set decree from the higher authority, but per observations done each year. Since students refuse to listen to anymumbojumbo from their teachers due to the noisy atmosphere caused by the former, it is deemed wise to postpone all teaching and learning and replace them with training and preparations towards the event. One privilege it comes with that makes it all the more interesting is that, students can come in or go out of the school at any time they prefer between the hours of six thirty in the morning, till ten in the morning. A knowledge of this was Aires' weapon to attend school later than she was expected to. After she had woken up late, with heavy eyes due to crying which even continued after the dream she saw, she failed to check the missed calls on her phone and the messages
With their eyes shut and Elena trusting her friend not to kill her in a bad landing, in less than five seconds they felt themselves bouncing on a fluffy surface, the whole place was quiet as they uncovered their eyes to behold Aires' room. "That was fast" Elena commented, "Yes, but might be late for what we came for, hurry let's go" Aires said in a flash, jumping out of the bed athletically and racing towards the door knob. As she turned it clockwise with Elena by her side, the door flung open to a surprising battle they could not involve in due to the magical arc wall that separated their side of the house and the battle ground, Aires' living room.The old fairy stood in the center of the dimly-lit room, her wings flickering with an otherworldly light. Across from her was Vanessa, the shapeshifter, looming, her body contorted and twisted by the malevolent demon that possessed her, yes she too had been possessed. The creature's eyes burned with an unearthly fire, and it let out a guttu
Be it a dream or a vision, or even some kind of magic, Aires could not tell, but in her unconsciousness, she saw Elena standing before her, disappointed "If it's because of Vanessa that you're pissed off like this, trust me I don't regret it, she deserves every bit of it, I will kill her when I see her again, tell her that" Aires offered her opening statement, Elena shook her head in disbelief, "Are you listening to yourself Aires? You are no different now from the demon that possessed her?" Elena replied, "Look Elena if you won't support me, you can leave me alone and don't insult me" "Shut up and listen to me" Elena bawled, "what happened to you Aires? Tell me I'm here, as your friend, as your sister, I want to understand but don't bullshit me okay, she meant a lot to all of us while she was alive, you think I'm not hurt too? Look Aires, she taught each one of us what we know, it's because of her that I have these abilities, I know that you would have gotten them anyways because you
The basketball games went fine between the competing schools with the Captain of New World High basketball team, Jason, being hailed by all for putting New World High on the top. Just as she was asked to do, Aires served the top guests with all they asked for and had a hell of a tiring afternoon doing it. At one pm, the sprinters took their turn in the marathon and Alpha Academy came out as winners of both the male's and female's sessions. The town folks had lots of fun witnessing the activities, some would run to the field and carry their wards up on their shoulders to show how proud they are of them. One time when during the cheerleading display at the basketball games, Perry tripped and fell, she faked up a funny smile and pretended it was all part of the act, but the few who knew, went on to mock her. Among the crowd laughing at her, the one person whose facial expression enraged her the most was Aires', even though hers was just a smile at her showmanship, Perry took it as mocke
It was just another ordinary morning for Aires, as she woke up to get ready for school. Even though through her window she saw that the clouds were a bit frowned, she attributed it to a possible November rainfall. She had just finished her breakfast and was getting ready for school when she heard the news that would change her life forever. A part of her town had been burnt down by a devastating fire, leaving many families homeless and in despair.Aires couldn't believe what she head. "Could this be what Perry meant?" She asked herself. At the time of their conversation, even though she got a little scared when she heard her say "fireworks", eventually she brushed it off as an empty threat, but now she realized that her words had been a warning. She felt a knot form in her stomach as she thought of her friends and the families who lived in the affected area. She quickly scooped up her phone and dialed Elena's Vanessa's number, among her friends Vanessa was the only one who lived a litt
AIRES' P.O.V The piercing blue of the sky, always with me ever since we got here, seemed to pull me upward and I felt it touch my cheek and calm my face like Mum's hand on me when I was younger. Flocks of green and yellow parakeets, soaring over our heads as we step out of the bus one after another. At last, a whole new place to relieve me off home works which seemed to be a good source of headaches to me. Clapping her hands to signal us to pay attention, Mrs Conrad begun to give a beautiful description of the place which we currently are for the purpose of "Physical Geography". " Attention everyone " she began "I am certain that most of you or all of you have not been to this part of the country. It's a very rocky place as you can see, and I am very sure that most types of rocks will be found here. You can roam around all you want but do not go too far. Take pictures and make notes because you will need them." With that, she entered the bus, and
