章 15: Match Part 2.

The match resumed, the Salvatore team players started to play more lightly, which the Mystic Falls team responded with more mockery, but also being more serious in their games, MG and Kaleb scored some points, even though it was Kaleb who shone the most, MG was doing well, Dana even complimented him with a smile, which annoyed Lizzie to the fullest, Team Salvatore was slowly gaining points and losing less and less. Less, however there was still a big gap due to the first part of the match and the fact that the Mystic Falls team was better, surprisingly being serious in their games brought all the Salvatore students who were in the stands encouraged them for real, and it was the same for those of the High School of Mystic Falls who tried to destabilize the team by shouting mockery at them. The game was getting tighter and tighter, and more and more extended, going beyond a simple friendly match for the two high schools. it ended in a defeat for the Salvatore school, which annoyed the Salvator school, the mockery of the students of the opposing camp doesn't helping.

The players shook hands.

"Maybe if you had taken the pills for crazy, you could have won." Dana said, putting on an expression as if she were sorry for her.

It was too much for Lizzie, who in her anger threw a punch at her that knocked her to the ground, a few seconds of silence, and as if that had set fire to the powder keg, everyone started to fight, There was chaos, there was even a girl from Mystic Fall High School who sent her shoe to a Salvator Student. Dorian was screaming trying to calm them down, the opposing team's coach did the same but with a small smile on his face and with less effort on the job.

Penelope Park looks at it all with a smile on her face, and says like nothing happen " Shall we have lunch? " which was easily heard despite all the noises, yelling and insults.

Aiónia sighed deeply as she looked at Penelope with an expression that was a mixture of weariness and amusement, which made the capricious girl laugh. He then looked at all the chaos in front of him, he took a breath and began to whistle, and strangely the sound covered all the noises of the stadium, the symphony was beautiful, calm, and soothing, it mixed with the wind. Everyone in the stadium heard it and gradually calmed down, relaxed, and just enjoyed the music forgetting their thoughts, the melody reminded everyone of a feeling of nostalgia. like A Mother's Embrace, which soothed them and gave them an endless feeling of warm love and security. the sound gradually stops until it disappears smoothly. everyone slowly turns to the source of the sound and sees a relaxed boy staring calmly at the sky with a sad little smile, his arms on the back of the chair.

Aiónia did not move for a few seconds, he was in his thoughts, his eyes were filled with loneliness, which attracted the curiosity and sympathy of any living being who could see him.

Aiónia then got up and left calmly, the students passed him by putting themselves on the side, and said " Okay but you are the one who invites... "

With a dazed Penelope who did nothing for a few seconds before following him. Aiónia walked few minutes with Penelope, and when they were far away and alone.

" Splashhh!!!" Aionia vomits blood.

" Hey, you are fine?" said Penelope surprised and worried, putting her hand on his back.

" Yeah its good, dont worry..." said the boy with a Smile.

" Let's go to the infirma...." Said Penelope before being cut

" Dont worry, Trust me Penelope, let's just go lunch..." said calmly the boy, Penelope nodded after a few seconds, she looked worried which is probably a rare sight to see, but said nothing.

The students had all returned to their respective schools, and afternoon classes were canceled, which was a great choice for everyone. Josie, Lizzie, MG, Kaleb, sat in the room facing the entrance, they were alone, and talked about the game, how it got together and even though they lost, they felt good. a few seconds of silence passed and:

" I'm sure I got a shoe in the face sent by a PomPom. " MG said causing everyone to burst out laughing.

" Yo I swear Kyle was screaming like a whiner, it was so pathetic even my little sister would have screwed him up. " said Kaleb rigorously. For several minutes we heard only laughter in the room.

" I would like to hear the symphony of Aiónia again... " said MG deep in thought " It reminded me of old memories where everything was normal and I was still human... " he continued with a pinch in his heart thinking of his family.

" Yeah that was beautiful... " Josie said deep in thought.

Kaleb and Lizzie were thinking about it too, he all knew he could never forget that day. a few minutes of calm passed.

" Don't you find the guy strange? " says MG

" He's sure not like the others, he's different. " says Josie

" I spoke with him the day he arrived and it's like the guy is a perfect fit for me, he enlightened me, with a deep advice. " says MG still conflicted because of what Aiónia told him on the first day.

" Yeah he helped me too. " Said Lizzie thinking back to meeting the boy.

" I don't know him much, I saw the guy from time to time but nothing more, but sometimes looking at him gives me the impression that... " Kaleb said without finishing not knowing how to define the exact term.

"That he's alone in the world..." Josie said knowing the boy and his particularity well.

" Sometimes he has these sad eyes..., and it looks like he had no one in this world, it makes me curious what he's been through to be like that, it must be something terrible." Josie finished.

The others thought and agreed with her words, then Dr. Saltzman and Hope walk into the school.

" Are you okay? you look like you just got out of a war. " Josie said looking at their exhausted faces, and their dirty, dusty and even burnt clothes. " And where Landon and Raphael? " Continued Josie.
