Capítulo 42: Incident
Quietly following everyone out, once again Helen was staring intently into the distance looking for Dryads and Treants. "Stop trying to look for them Helen.... you know they only show themselves when they want to be seen....." Grace said pulling her away.
"I know... but I can still hope..." She said reluctantly getting pulled away.
"They are there..... I've met one Dryad... her name was Messelise and a Treant called Tenderfoot..." I said to Helen.
"Really???!!!" she turned to me in surprise with a giant smile.
"Yeah they were super friendly and even gave me a gift....." I replied taking out my Treant wand from my bag.
Helen gasped in shock, causing grace to investigate the commotion. "Ohh wow... you got a Treant wand..." Grace said in shock and surprise.
Helen still in shock and awe, hesitantly reaching out her hands to touch it. "It's okay... you can hold it if you want..." I smiled handing it to her.
Still completely silent she accepted it carefully her hands quivering in excitement. As her hand held the end of the wand I felt an immense amount of energy channel through her side to my end of the wand. I instinctively let go as if it was a loaded gun ready to fire.
"Emilia.... why don't you use this wand?... it's certainly stronger than your current one.." Helen asked mesmerized by it.
"I don't really know if I'm ready..." I hesitantly answered her.
"You have nothing to worry about, it really likes you." She said passing it back to me with a giant smile.
"It talks to you?..." I asked.... in confusion.
"Kinda... it's hard to explain, it's more like a feeling then words..." Helen explained.
"Ahh I see.." I replied.
"So we have couple hours to burn before Dinner..... What you guys want to do?.." Grace asked.
"Ohh Ohh had your pearl changed yet?..." Jay asked me suddenly remembering that I had one.
"Ohhh lemme check!" I replied in excitement surprised that I even forgot about it myself.
Everyone watched me as I reached into my robe pocket to pick it out. "Anyone want to guess what her affinity is?.." Jay asked.
"No reaction!" Helen replied with confidence with a big smile and a wink at me.
"Nah I heard she punched a crater into a wall... either Fire or Earth." Grace bet.
"Nah she's cool and caring I'd put my bets on Water or Divine." Daisy answered.
"Hmmmmm... I'd say fire.... she was able to easily cast her first firebolt during the Wyvern attack at the city." Jay bet.
"You guys tell me what it is!" I said closing my eyes and holding it in my hand showing them eager for their reply.
They all fell silent with no reply... making me feel uneasy..... "Guys?..." I asked the silence making me feel extremely worried.....
"Well..... Maybe we just need to give it more time.." I heard Jay say.
"Yeah.... some more time will do it..." Grace agreed.
Slowing opening one eye, dread and depression washed over me as it looked like it had no reaction. It looked exactly the same as when I received it..... "Yeah.... I'm sure I just need more time... quickly stuffing it back into my pocket a little embarrassed.
Daisy noticing me looking a little saddened gave me a giant hug, "Nothing to worry about! You're awesome!" she said attempting to cheer me up.
"HAHAHHA not only if she a Rank F..... She doesn't even have an affinity... you really are the lowest of the low!!!" The familiar dreaded voice laughed at me from the side.
Daisy recognising her voice, turned in anger as she drew her maul from her back and walked towards her with purpose and resolve. "WHAT DID YOU SAY?!" she shouted at Calista.
"Little demon girl you better watch what you say or I'll send your kind back underground!" Calista warned her, her face looking serious. As two tall students walked in front of Calista. Calista pushed one of the boys forward issuing him to do something. "Step back." he warned daisy with a firm voice but his hands were physically shaking.
"Step aside." Daisy warned him still advancing the tattoos on her body began to illuminate a faint yellow glow.
The male student noticing Daisy's refusal to back down in a panic he pulled out his wand and whispered something sending a small bolt of lightning screaming towards Daisy striking her directly in her breast plate letting out a blinding flash.
Jay and I instinctively pulled out our wands ready for a fight. "You're goanna need stronger lackeys" Daisy shouted to Calista and with a sudden burst of speed dashed towards the student and with a large arcing swing slammed her maul at his exposed rib, his body warped with the impact letting out a huge wail of pain as his body was sent flying a meter or two to the side, without warning and remorse she went for the 2nd student.
Caught off guard he fell back trying to draw his wand. "Too slow!" Daisy shouted as she was in the process of slamming her maul down on his chest.
Out of nowhere a barrage of lights were sent flying from the side, several impaling Daisy all through her body, leaving her standing there with thick white rods protruding out from her body.
"Daisy!" I yelled to her worried for her safety, but she remains silent unresponsive holding her maul high in the air.
"What is going on here??!!!" a much older man shouted running towards us.
"Professor they provokingly attacked us!!!" Calista shouted back sounding and acting terrified with a very noticeable quiver in her voice.
"First years already breaking the most important rules of Atlantis??!!! The professor shouted as he arrived on the scene. Noticing the downed student writhing in pain he quickly went to attend to him.
"We are so screwed....." I heard Jay whisper...
"Is Daisy okay??..." I whispered to him.
"Yeah that is just one of many binding spells.... it's just to restrain people... totally harmless." Jay answered.
"Thank God." I Whispered.
The professor stood up and with a wave of his wand the rods of light impaling Daisy lowly dissipated allowing her to move again. "Would someone care to explain what happened?....." the professor asked.
"She attacked us" Calista accused Daisy.
"SHE! Insulted my friend!!!" Daisy yelled back.
"Yeah she insulted Emilia first!" Jay joined in on the argument.
"Shut up!!!! You guys wanted to attack us the moment you saw us" the other student shouted.
"They are lying!" Helen and Grace both shouted joining the argument.
"How dare you accuse me of lying?" Calista shouted back acting shocked and innocent.
"Silence!" the professor shouted, magically silencing us.
"Calista and Douglas take your friend to the infirmary now!" the professor ordered.
Both acting innocently, nodded and went to help their friend and then popped the biggest shit eating grin and sneer the moment the professor wasn't watching.
"Helen and Grace Leave now!" he ordered both them.
Helen and Grace stood their ground "Your eagerness to defend and stick up for your friends is admirable but raising a weapon against a fellow students is grounds for expulsions so if you want to be added on the list be my guest." He threatened them forcing them to begrudgingly leave.
"As for you three!" Detention all my office now!" He ordered us.
"But...." We all tried to explain but we couldn't get out a word.
"Enough! Follow me." the professor shouted and led the way into the main building the three of us quietly following him, all the students looking and gossiping about what could possibly have happened.
Entering the main building going up the maze of stairs we eventually arrived at his office, it was rather cramped room, seemingly a bit large but filled with many many trinkets books and things, in the centre laid a large wooden table and draped over it a table cloth with what seemed to be a red winged bird at the centre, with one large chair on one side and four smaller chairs on the other.
"Please take a seat...." He said to use taking his seat at the other side of the table.......... "Now it's a lot quieter please explain the situation." The professor asked.
We both looked at Jay wanting him to explain the story.... "Well .... we just came out of Class not too long ago and was talking about how to spend the evening when, Calista overheard us and began berating Emilia for no real reason. Then she insulted Daisy calling her little Demon girl making her take matters into her own hands and teach her a lesson." Jay explained.
"Hmmm...." The professor nodded in understanding and began thinking......... "Hmmmm..... well if anyone asks say I have given you Midnight patrols as punishments but please don't raise a weapon on another student outside of duels there's a proper process to knock people down a peg or two." He said with a smile on his face.
"Wait you're not gonna punish us?..." Daisy asked quietly.
"Hmmm I would normally but there's something about you three that I like..." He explained causing us all to look at him in shock.
"Really?..." Jay asked.
"Yes yes... now go and remember if anyone asks say you have to do midnight patrols." He said waving us away.
"Thank you!" we all thanked him and quickly left before he could change his mind.
