“ 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
“ Who's Elyon?” Storm asked“ You'll see when you get there” Rosey snapped“ We won't go anywhere with you, we can just take our leave and we won't come back again” Tana spokeBefore they could could make any move, Boothe hurriedly bounded their arms together with magic“ He can do magic!” Xavier whisperedXavier couldn't free them, he was fast enough to resist the magic because he wasn't expecting it.“ You caused this Xavier, we are all in this mess because of you, I knew it was a bad idea to come here” Tana fumedBoothe and Rosey escorted them and led them through the beautiful forest. Lucy was beside Storm admiring nature“ This forest might be dangerous but the sight of it is beautiful, what do you think Storm?” Lucy said as she struggled to take a look at Storm was behind her.“ Yes it is, just like your eyes” Storm whispered“ What was that?” Lucy asked“ Nothing, just admiring this beautiful sight in front of me” Storm tried to compliment her indirectlyTana tried to keep her
"I see, so that's your name." Elyon chuckled looking at Storm with a smile on his face."What do you mean by that?" Strom frowned, asking rather boldly."Well, I'm just wondering how the System Bearer got here." He laughed, ignoring Strom and turning to Boothe."Tell me, how were you able to capture them?" He asked, the smile on his face widened."Sir...." Boothe stuttered, not knowing what to say. He was confused as to what was happening and didn't know how to reply to Elyon.One wrong answer, and he was dead. He had to think of a way to answer correctly."I told you I'm no System Bearer, my name is just Storm Walker." Storm's voice came, interrupting Boothe who was still in his thoughts."Aren't you a little bit too forward?" Xavier, who was the closest to Storm, frowned , pulling him backward.The power radiating from Elyon was not small. Even if they were to fight him, there was no way they were going to win.Why the heck was Strom suddenly brave to go against someone who was this
Storm, Xavier and the others were shocked when they heard that. Obviously this was what he was getting at from the start. How was Storm going to fight someone with such a massive aura as his? “There's no way in hell that's going to happen…right?” Tana blurted out abruptly. “That's absolutely right!” Her sister added. The boys chuckled, cowering before Elyon as his emotionless stare at the girls made them want to pee their pants. Mustang pulled them both away from Elyon, nervously smiling at him.“Give us a minute,” Xavier smiled at Elyon. Then they hurdled up, having a meeting of their own that involved Tana, Xavier, Mustang, Keith, Storm and the rest. “There's no way Storm would win against this guy,” Mustang whispered, “there's got to be another option!” “With the way he was talking, I don't think there is any other option,” Keith added. “Why don't we make a run for it then?” Xavier asked, “the door is right there!” “Were you dropped as a baby or are you just fucking stup
