“ Wow, this is beautiful” Storm stated“ Yeah, beautiful but deadly, we need to stay alert” Lucy repliedLucy could still manage to talk but she didn't have enough strength to walk alone, she had to hold on to storm for support.Lucy suddenly grunted in pain, he immediately stopped walking and directed all his attention to Lucy.“ Are you okay?” He asked looking concerned“ I'm okay, I just need to rest for a while” she answeredShe spotted a medium sized rock that was under a very tall and old looking tree. She moved away from Storm to sit on the rock.“ Seriously, this is unexpected coming from someone who wants us to stay alert remarked.“ I can't keep going, I need a break, please” Lucy begged.“ Lucy, listen to me, as much as I want you to relax, this is not the perfect place and time to do that” Storm statedLucy didn't respond, she rested her back on the tree and slowly closed her eyes.Storm looked away, he was helpless and wanted to get angry but the only thing he felt at tha
“ And how exactly do you plan to do that” Boothe asked“ Lucy, do you remember why you attacked Xavier at the cafeteria?” Storm asked“ I don't know but the only thing I remember was that Xavier threatened to take my lunch and I felt disturbed” Lucy replied“ That's it, the dark forces tend to take control only when you are angry, frustrated or sad” Storm explained.Storm stopped and stared at Lucy for a while“ No! You won't do anything that would make me lose control, what if I hurt you again” Lucy disagreed“ If you stab him again, he's just going to heal himself like he did the last time” Boothe joked“ You know about that too” Storm smirked“ Yeah, I do, Storm, you are a very powerful being. We thought people like you were extinct but you showed up out of nowhere” Boothe explainedHe continued, “ The power possess, Storm is beyond the system.. windscreen or whatever you call your abilities, you are more powerful and dangerous than you think”“ Dangerous?”“ Yes, the….”Lucy inter
Tana and Xavier were still in the library waiting for Lucy and Storm. Tana was anxiously pacing around the room.“ Tana” Xavier called “ What is it that you want? I'm busy!” Tana snapped “ You are obviously not busy, you are just pacing around the room, I need to talk to you about something important” Xavier statedHe went towards Tana's direction and blocked her movement by stopping in front of her. Tana tried to push him away but he stood his ground.“ Relax baby, I just want you something” Xavier said“ Who the fuck is baby, call me that again and you'll lose a tooth” Tana threatened Xavier was a little bit frightened by Tana's threat but he decided to continue the conversation. He took a nervous swallow before he continued.“ Tana, it's just that I've had my eyes on you since the first since the first day I saw you at the academy “ Xavier gulped“ So you're stalking me now!” Tana fumed“ No, I'm just trying to let you know that I have butterfly in my belly right now” Xavier con
“ I don't think I can accept this position sir, it's too much responsibility and I don't think I am ready” Storm spoke“ This is not an option, Storm walker, it's a decision that has been made by the high officials in this mythical academy” Mr Bradley explained“ I don't mean to be an ingrate, I'm sorry” Storm pleaded“ You should be happy about that decision, you might have greater opportunities in the future” “ Okay sir, I'll do it if you insist” Storm saidMr Bradley stopped what he was writing and looked up at Storm raising his right eyebrow.“ If I insist, you are not doing this for me Storm walker, it's for your own good, you'll thank me later”Storm nodded his head in agreement but he still did not want to take up the position. He thought it might distract him from revealing some hidden truths about himself or learning how to control his new abilities.Storm stood in front of Mr Bradley's desk for a while, there was total silence in the room for about a few minutes.“ So… what
***Mr Bradley was in his office alone, he remembered the king of hell telling him he was going to send him a servant. He rubbed his hand on his chin thinking.He suddenly saw flashes of a book that he used to make research on. It was called the book of hell but it was surprisingly a small book. He found it in fathers box where he kept his personal belongings.He immediately reached for the last desk drawer beneath. He brought out the dusty book and blew the dust off the top.The book was black in color and had a lock on top of it. Mr Bradley opened the lock and started flipping the pages of the book. It took him a while before he could find what he was looking for.He read through the book and his eyes widened in shock. He immediately stood up and rushed into one of the rooms. It was a vacant eerie space shrouded in a thick layer of dust with cobwebs clinging to the ceiling like macabre tapestries. “ Mighty elf, Helga” he coughed as he said the cleaner's name.He took the broom in t
***“ I don't understand why Mr Bradley would want a personal assistant, he's not a type that likes to socialize” Keith spoke“ I'm as surprised as you are and he doesn't really do much work, Lazy old man” Mustang jokes“ Watch what you say boys, Mr Bradley has ears everywhere” Lucy warned thenStorm sat quietly with his friends in the library, the library was now a perfect hideout for them to hangout. He had a feeling something was wrong“ How does Liliana know everything about me, she and Boothe mentioned the same thing about wanting me dead” Storm stated“ What do you mean?” Kaze asked“ Lucy, do you remember Boothe saying something about some people wanting me dead?” Storm asked“ Yeah, I remember” Lucy answered“ Who's Boothe?” Keith asked“ They won't tell, they didn't tell me. It's their little secret” Tana scoffed and rolled her eyes“ Come on Tana, don't be like that, Boothe is a very weird…” Storm got interrupted by Lucy“ Hold on Storm, Tana, are you angry because we didn't
“ And I'm glad to tell you I'll be happy to help you and you guys did pretty well in cleaning this place up” Xavier spokeXavier had a phobia for a dusty place so he was pleased the place got cleaned but he was somehow not satisfied with it.“ But you left this table untouched” Xavier said as he poked and prodded, determined to uncover a hidden stain with his eye scanning the table like a magnifying glass.“ What is it with you and dust? You know what,I don't even care” Mustang shrugged “ Okay, what do you need my help with?” Xavier inquired“ I need you to open another Portal” Storm stated“ Again! I'll do it” Xavier statedStorm stared at him for a while“ What are you looking at?” Xavier inquired“ It's kinda different this time”“ What do you mean?” Xavier asked“ I mean you have to create a portal that is strong and more durable to hold the entire team” Storm explained“ What, that's not going to happen!” Xavier exclaimed“ why not”“ Because I'm definitely you guys would be stu
***“ Where's the system Bearer?” Liliana asked“ I should be here soon because he hasn't reported anything to me today” he continued to stare down at the pages of the book he was busy flipping.Liliana stood up from the couch she was sitting on and went to sit in front of Mr Bradley's desk.“ I don't know why father chose you, I told him you were useless and greedy but he wouldn't listen” Liliana scoffed“ Who are you calling father?” Mr Bradley inquired“ Father didn't tell you, I'm his only daughter but not the only child which makes me the princess of hell” Liliana smirkedMr Bradley was terrified as his eyes widened with fear, his pupils dilated and his face began to slick with sweat as he adjusted his neck tie.“ Is this a joke? It's really an expensive one” Mr Bradley gulpedLiliana raised up her right hand and fire came out of the tip of her fingers as she childishly played with them. She used the fire coming out of her index finger to burn her face but instead it glowed.“ Th
