What Lurks Within [On Hold]

Ch.2: New Home

In the nurse's office, (Y/n) was unconscious and laying on a bed. The nurse was sitting down in a chair watching some movies on her computer. It was so quiet that you could hear the birds outside chirping and the wind blowing between the branches of the tree.

After a while, he regained consciousness. He looked around the room and spotted the nurse. She must know the happened after that child sent him flying through the wall.

"Hey, nurse lady I'm awake now." He said but the nurse didn't even glance at him. She must have been watching a good movie to ignore him. "Nurse!" Shouting at her she now looked at him.

"What do you want the movie was just getting interesting." She spoke annoyed that he just ruined the best part of the movie.

"Well, sorry lady I didn't mean to fly through a wall and ruin your damn movie. It's not like I knew the kid I was messing with knew any magic spells." He spoke with sarcasm but it seems like the nurse did not register it.

"You better be. That was the only decent part of the movie."

"Can you take me to a teacher or principal? I need to talk to someone about receiving a class schedule."

"I'll take you to one of the teachers. She should be in her classroom." The nurse stood up and exited the room with (Y/n) following close behind with his suitcase in hand.

They walked down the hallway without uttering a word to each other. Thankfully it was not such a long walk as they arrived in front of the entrance of the room in a matter of minutes. The nurse knocked on the door and left (Y/n) standing there waiting for the teacher to open the door.

He could hear people talking on the other side. All he could make up was something about an exam. The doors slid open and a blue-haired guy greeted him.

"Sorry if you're here to see Natsuki-chan s-"

Before he could finish speaking he was cut off by the other person in the room shouting.

"Do not address your teacher with chan!" She nudged the blue hair guy to get out of the doorway.

Once he moved she looked at who was waiting. Both of their eyes widened in disbelief.

"Wait so you weren't lying about being a teacher. Guess that deserves an apology but I'm not going on my knees to beg for forgiveness. You did send me through a wall after all." He looked down at her with a small smirk.

"Fine, I guess you don't have to go on your knees and beg. It was unprofessional of me to let my anger get the better of me. However, I still expect an apology from you." She crossed her arms and looked at him with a glare.

"I (Y/n) apologize to the woman who looks like a child for assuming that she wasn't a teacher. So what's your name?" He started scratching the back of his head.

"Did you not just hear from my student. My name is Natsuki. But you should address me as Natsuki-sensei."

"I got it. Nice to meet you Loli-sensei hope we can get along." He received a loud sigh from her. "Also, I have a question maybe you can answer?"

"Sure whatever gets you out of my sight as soon as possible."

"Okay, so my question is... Why is the school so empty? The school year should have started already... Right?"

"No today's the last day of summer school. The semester begins in a week. Did you not check the school's website to see when we start."

"Huh, your school has a website. All I got were pictures of the campus when I searched the name. I guess it's good to know through. I'll check it out when I need directions since I don't know anybody that can help."

"You need someone to help you? Give me one moment." She slid the door closed as chattering was heard coming from inside the room.

The door slides open and the blue-haired guy is standing there. (Y/n) could tell from his facial expression that the guy was tired. Must have been one hell of a day for him.

"I heard that you need some help. Do you just need me to show you the school or maybe the island?"

"Well I just arrived on the island today but if you just feel like only showing me around the school I'm okay with it. You look pretty tired anyway so I'd understand."

"Yeah, I am. How about I show you around tomorrow. I'll even bring my friends you can get to know some other people." He said in a tired tone.

"Sounds like a plan. Do you want to exchange numbers or just meet in front of the school?"

"Let's exchange numbers. Just in case something happens and one of us needs to reschedule."

They ended up exchanging numbers. Once finished (Y/n) walked away. He exited the school and was going to where he'll be living for the next few months. It was on the south island. So he called a ride to save himself some time.

Once he got there he got out of the car. The apartment complex he was staying at wasn't luxurious but he was never one for living in luxury. All he needed was the essentials and that was enough for him.

Entering the building he got on the elevator and touched the button for the fifth floor. The doors opened so he exited and walked to the end of the hall. Grabbing keys from his pocket he opens the door.

"Looks cozy. Maybe I'll invite some friends over... Just kidding I don't even have any friends. It's probably a good idea to make some though. I'll try to make some tomorrow since it will make this transition go more smoothly"

His phone started ringing. Quickly he took it out to answer a phone call.

"Yeah, what's happening?"

"Just wanted to make sure you made it safely to the island is all." The voice responded. "How has your first day been? Was it productive?"

"I'd say it was. I ended up meeting a teacher that is stuck in the body of a child. Her name is Natsuki she sent me flying through a wall." (Y/n) walked towards a chair and sat down while waiting for some kind of reaction.

"Well, she is a high-ranking attack mage. Just be grateful that you're still alive. Even if she looks like a child don't take her lightly. I've witnessed how powerful she is firsthand. It's better if you just listen to whatever she tells you to avoid problems."

"I refuse to respect someone who looks like a child. I'll never be able to take whatever she tells me seriously. Takes for the advice but I'm going to do whatever I feel like."

"Then I expect you to have a productive time on the island. I'll call you later." The voice said before ending the phone call.

"Well, I wonder what I'm going to be eating for dinner tonight. I'm not familiar with any of the restaurants here so it'll take a while to decide."

Turning on the computer he was about to search for somewhere that delivers. There was some shouting coming from the floor below him but he paid no attention to it. Whatever it was it didn't interest him in the slightest.
