Everyone watched in silence as the LCD screen displayed the number 1000,it was far higher than any of the other students, and by a landslide at that, even his nearest contender was behind by almost 400 points, and when this realisation struck, having their mouths agape, was one of many things that they did. "d-does that make him the fourth" asked a terrified student, "I knew he was something else" said Austin with a look of disbelief on his face, "Earl, seems like I still haven't caught up?!!!" said a bitter, yet surprised Jake, "Holy shit!" said Sidney. Annie, Ruby and Henry, couldn't find the right words to describe their level of disbelief, this was expected, as any attack weaker would most likely not be too serious for a teacher. but seeing as Earl's attack hospitalised Mr Stevens, it was only a given it would be tremendously powerful. and yet, despite the students and teachers expecting this, they were all still shocked speechless, leaving the only person m
"you all need to unpack your bags, we can enjoy this place later, don't forget why you came here" said Mr Stevens as he adjusted his glasses slightly. "that's right, now hurry up, we don't necessarily have all day" said Miss Kayla. all the students, except Earl's group that is, all had sour expressions on their faces, as they began heading to their separate rooms. "this a total bust" said one student, "yeah, what's the use of giving us a tour of this heaven, if we can't enjoy it?!!" asked another. the gossip amongst the crowd of students gradually grew, and eventually died down as the students each despatched to their various rooms. Luckily for Earl's group, each of their rooms weren't that far apart, and were all on the same floor, although some were farther than others, having close proximity to one another gave them sort of a reassurance. "well then, this is where we part I guess" said Sidney to the group, who were all standing in front of Earl's roo
Earl and Crystal both sat in silence, they were in a blue room, about four cubic metres in size, and opposite the dark oak door on the wall was a white velvet coach, it matched the theme with everything they had seen so far, but was oddly plain, unlike the many other white accented furniture in the hotel. on top this couch was where Earl and Crystal sat in silent, both annoyed at each other, and both in their pyjamas,behind them was a still boiling Miss Kayla, ever since entering the room, not a single word has been said, and even simple things such as hate stares or petty insults couldn't be thrown around. both Earl and Crystal knew that doing any sort of acts or thing that would piss of their teacher even more was not in their interest, and would only result in even more punishment, as a result, the two sat still awaiting whatever reason it was that made them sit in this room to arrive. and like as if hearing their thoughts, they could hear the voice of two peopl
Earl was standing outside the hotel still in total shock, bags were being carried to the outside to accompany him, and beside him was a pissed Mr Stevens, "did you listen to nothing I told you before?" asked Mr Stevens in an obviously pissed tone, he turned his head over to Earl and gave him a disappointing stare, Earl hung his head low in shame, he bent slightly and picked up a travel bag before speaking, "why are you coming with me?" he asked in a shaky voice, Mr Stevens look then faded away and got replaced with a serious one, "that's obvious isn't it?" said Mr Stevens as the last baggage was dropped outside, "that's everything sir" said the tour woman as she gave a bow and headed back inside, Mr Stevens gave a bow in return before picking up a few baggages himself,"this is a school trip, I can't have one of my students sleeping off someplace, I have to ensure your safety, in short, it's my duty!!" he said as he began walking off, after Earl heard this,
"GO!!!!!!" yelled out Miss Kayla, all the students immediately bolted towards the opening gates, each with their own thoughts, motivation and emotions, "So what's the plan?!!!" asked a sprinting Earl, "hold on a second, we need to gain some ground on everyone first!!!!" yelled Ruby as she ran on ahead of the group, she then came to an abrupt stop, turned around, and placed both her hands on the floor, lying in wait, as the team caught up to her, the earth underneath their feet blasted out into a pillar, and in an instant, the five of them found themselves airborne, flying over the gate, "This wasn't part of the plan!!!!!!" yelled Henry as he clung onto Sidney tightly, with tears flying out the side of his eyes, "you know he's not wrong!!!" said an oddly calm Sidney, "um... do you have a plan to get us down?!!!!" asked Earl, who clung onto Annie tightly, with tears also running down the side of his face, "I'm sure she has a plan!!!" yelled Annie, who also c
"Huh? Why are you crying?" Asked a confused Ruby, unbeknownst to her, Earl had just might as well made the biggest mistake of his life."I'm sorry" said Earl as he gave Ruby a smile despite his crying demeanour, "sorry, for what?!!!" Asked Ruby in an angry voice. "I lost them," said Earl in a really low voice. Ruby looked at Earl blankly, her expression changing from an angry one to one of disbelief, her mouth hung open slightly, and her eyes were dead."Ruby?" Asked Earl, seeing the state of Ruby, he had never seen her like this before, no-one had, and frankly it was a bit scary. Any normal person would rant and scold Earl after hearing this, instead her face went blank, and her voice didn't raise by so much as a decibel. It was quite clear that her feelings of disappointment and shock far exceeded her feelings of anger.And like a mindless zombie, she simply turned around, and headed to the table where Mr Stevens and Miss Kayla sat. "What happened, where are the ot
"Okay Phoenix, lets go make it up to them" said Earl, Phoenix, who was sitting on his head gave a hearty caw in response. "Alright" Earl said as he approached the massive gates that sat in-between him and the snowy Taiga.He stood in front of it, looking at the massive gates for some time, before walking over to the walls beside it, "guess scaling the gates will be a lot easier than scaling the wall" said Earl, as he walked back over to the gates.Earl then squatted as he prepared himself, he looked up at the pointed end of the gate, and had a an anxious sweat run down the side of his face.'really hope I don't end up stabbing myself in the butt' Earl thought to himself as he planted his feet firmly into the ground.And using all the strength in his legs, he leaned forwards slightly, and vaulted over the gates, barely avoiding the sharp spikes at its tips.He then landed safely on the other side, feeling both proud and alleviated, "that could've been bad" said Earl as he once again l
"S'up dork?" asked Jake, as he walked up to Earl with a neutral look on his face, Earl on the other hand was confused as he watched Jake, who had a blue shirt and brown shorts on, with both his hands in his pockets, approach him, in red shoes nonetheless."What are you doing here?" asked Earl as he saw Jake walk passed him, "well, I was thinking of getting some late night training, and then I heard a lot of noise coming from this direction, so I came to check it out" said Jake.He then stared at the fallen Krix, and then back at Earl, and with a single brow raised, he asked, "Did you do that?"Earl was still confused, but let out a sigh before answering, "Yes, plus what are you doing training at night in the forest?" Asked Earl.Jake then looked at Earl and kept silent for 5 seconds before answering, "What are you doing going around killing beasts at night?" Asked Jake."Touché" said Earl as he let out another sigh, "You're really something huh?" asked Jake, Earl was shocked on hearin
