The dark guardian

C11

—Who did this?— the teacher had sat on a banana making a strange noise—I asked them who did this?—he got up very  annoyed that no one in the section responded.

We all turned to look at each other suspiciously, at least I was sure it had nothing to do with it, but as always, as the saying goes: the skinniest dog gets fleas and that's how this teacher always looked at me.

"By what... don't you mean?" It's fine, if you think you're brave I'll take you all to the address, there you'll see how it goes—he took his briefcase, tripping over the desk, making him fall to his knees and immediately he saw us again.

We all started laughing with our hands on our mouths.

"You," he pointed out to me, "I'm between eyebrows, James, since that exam you did very well, I've seen you suspicious lately ." What was missing...

—But if I haven't done anything—I raised my arms—the only thing I did was laugh like all my classmates, is there something wrong with that?— I frowned—you always keep throwing hints at me, there are many students and only me always suspicious." I shook my head.

—Yes, there is—he approached my desk stalking —you can't make fun of a teacher like me, surely you were the one who put that banana on my seat, so come with me to the address—he took my arm trying to take me.

—Wait a minute—Mike intervened, raising his voice throughout the section—James, he didn't—his gaze was on the teacher.

And how do you know that?" She placed her hands on her waist.

—I won't tell you anything, I'll just assure you that he didn't do it. If you're going to punish him then you'll have to do it to me. —He got up—come on, punish me too.

" Me too." Harry also got up bravely.

"And me ." Astrid stood up.

—Take me too— Mell looked at me, I was surprised that she did that, she was not one of those who sacrificed herself for another and less for me .

One student got up, then another and so on, until the entire section was on their feet, this time we would beat this cocky teacher.

—Damn ! —he stomped his feet—I swear I'll take revenge on all of you with a surprise exam—he ran out of the classroom, immediately the bell rang.

—Thank you very much guys, I don't know how I can pay for the gesture you made for me—I turned on my heel putting myself in front of the section, this time I felt supported by everyone, it was something new and I suppose it was good.

"Don't worry, James, we know how ridiculous that teacher is so we all support you, plus we know you didn't." Astrid's voice sounded so sweet.

"Wow, wow... so you were already in trouble little friend " Katsuro appeared.

I glared at him, whenever he appeared it was to give me bad news. I just waited for him to say something, but he didn't.

Classes had finished and I had to go back home, I walked and when I crossed a classroom there was a student sitting alone, on his desk he only had an open book, he looked very focused on what he was doing.

"What a strange boy," I whispered very softly.

—You call everyone weird, James, maybe the boy just feels bad and wants to be like that, don't you think? I also see that he has a book, he is surely reading and needs his space, it is what all readers do, right? Find spaces where they have a lot of privacy.

—Well yes, you're right, sometimes I also go through the same thing—we kept walking without giving it much importance.

•

—Family, I 'm here —I entered my house waving, I always did and I felt happy about what had happened at the university.

—James, I need you to help me with something, okay ? please go ahead, say yes.” Katrana winked at my shirt leading me to her room.

"What's wrong katrana ?" I sat on her bed, waiting for what idea had occurred to her.

"I wanted to ask you, what things do you men like?" He looked at me waiting for an answer.

-AHA! What are you having a crush on with some boy from your school—I pointed at her suspiciously, narrowing my eyes.

-Not stupid! We're just playing a gift exchange and I got a guy—he tried to shut me up by putting his hand over my mouth.

"But surely that boy is the one you like" I arched an eyebrow confirming.

-Did you know? Leave it like that, you never help anything—he took me out  about to jostle—go away and don't come back here.

I went back to my room, it was a bit messy.

—What a strange life for you humans, you care more about other material things than your own life— Katsuro was sitting on my bed.

"And according to how it is there?" I mean the underworld—I wanted to know.

"Well, there... wait ." He got up. "Do you feel that?"

"What thing?" I flipped my hands. I had no idea what he was referring to.

"Come on, come on," we left the house.

There was a little spirit haunting the streets. It was some kind of snake-headed hawk, but it didn't look that strong.

"Hey, but this is almost harmless Katsuro ," I snorted, "don't tell me that's why you brought me here?" I think your intuitions are beginning to fail you.

"It's not like that, I was so sure I had felt something stronger than this." He turned his head in all directions looking for something.

A guy was approaching us little by little under the shadow of the dark night, he was so calm that his footsteps could be heard in the distance, we were in a dead end, surely this was the enemy he had sensed , Katsuro .

Wow, but look who we have here, none other than James Brixt and his spirit guide." You couldn't tell who it was, but his voice was full of sarcasm.

"How do you know our names?" I frowned. he was also perplexed. How the hell had he seen Katsuro ? if he is a spirit.

Amazed ?" He got closer. "Do you think I can't see your friend?" Well, you're wrong just like you , I also have certain abilities that allow me to see demons and be able to fight them—he approached a distance where he could see his face.

" What?" I flinched. The guy who had appeared here was the same boy we had seen in the lonely classroom, even Katsuro seemed surprised at what he was seeing—and who the hell are you ?— I pointed at him, I don't know who you are and I don't intend to cross words with you

"My name is Kai Logan, I hope you never forget that name, James, we'll see each other again soon," he vanished into the shadows.

•

"Can you explain to me, what the hell did we just see, Katsuro ?" We returned to my room without any explanation of what we saw.

—I don't know, I just saw that another human being could see me and even knew our names—he took his chin trying to process what had happened.

"How can you not know?" I demanded, you have more experience in these things, don't you?

—Hey, don't get mad, I don't know everything about these things either, but let me find out a little more with my people, now sleep, it's been a pretty long and heavy day.

•

The next day I came to the university looking for this guy who had skills like mine, there was Harry and Mike in the cafeteria, they were having breakfast.

"Friends, do you know a student named Kai Logan?" I waited for his answer, although I didn't think they knew him. I'm sure he was one of those guys who kept a low profile.

"Did you say Kai Logan?" Mike thought for a moment taking his chin.

"Yes, that same one, do you know him or not?" I rolled my eyes.

—Of course, he 's from the swim team, go to the pools in the back and you'll find him there.

I went to the pools, there was a kind of training, there were more boys swimming and there he was, with alicrado shorts that adhered to his skin, some goggles against the water and he was shirtless, he had a well marked body and some tattoos in the form of flames on his arms. I stood a considerable distance away waiting for him to come out of his class.

After walking for a long time behind him, he stopped dead turning his head, I instantly backed away a little so he couldn't see me.

"Get out of there, james, do you think I don't know you 've been following me?" I came out of hiding.

"How did you know?" I frowned, apparently you're more cautious than I thought.

"I'm smarter than you and I have my precautions . " He adjusted his hair .

"Well that's good, but that doesn't interest me , I just came to ask you, how the hell do you know about me and Katsuro ?" I glared at him.

—I don't have to answer your questions, but I will tell you something else, I know that you also transform into something similar to a samurai with a sword that is said to be a holy sword and that you face spirits just like me, the difference between you and I'm just that I'm even more powerful than you—he boasted

"If you're so sure of that, why don't we try who's stronger?" Imbecile—I positioned myself to attack, I would make him swallow all his words and the great arrogance he carried.

"I expected you to say that at some point, but boy, were you smart about that." He glared at me, apparently he would start a good fight.

KATSURO

—Something is happening that I don't know, I need you to clarify about what I saw only yesterday, I'll tell you a little.

-What are you talking about?

—A boy who studies at the same university as , James, appeared in front of us at night and not only that  The most surprising thing is that he looked at me and also assured that he has special powers. I had not seen such a thing and less in a human.

—It is most likely that he is a descendant of the Alpha group, it was an elite group from the underworld that was destroyed by the higher hierarchy, it was said that one of them managed to sneak into the world of the living and was able to conceive a baby with a human, then of this rumor they were all destroyed. Burning them to ashes. Only their stories remained, I even thought it was some baseless story, but if you tell me those things I can assume that this boy is the last descendant of that clan, that is, he is half human and half demon for that reason it is his ability to be able to see them easily.

JAMES

—Let's stop talking, I'm listening to a lot of words and no action—I was about to transform, this guy's attitude was starting to tire me.

"Come on, start!" He waited for the first attack.
