Frozen Heart (Academy fanfiction)

Part 4

Sang's POV

As much as I hate the boys and the Academy I still regret that night more than anything. I spent the next few days in bed only moving to get a glass of water or to use the bathroom. I hardly ate anything, just one bite of food made me feel sick. I was upstairs in bed one morning when there was a knock on the door. It shocked me so much that I actually got out of bed to see who it was. I looked through the peephole and saw a white mask. Volto. I had gone past caring about my safety and opened the door to see what he wanted.

"I hear your guard dogs have left you." His voice was unaltered which surprised me. It was deep and had a slight accent that I couldn't place. He sounded older, possible late twenties.

"No weird voice anymore? What's next, no mask?" My voice was scratchy and weak with not talking for a few days.

"I have no need to hide my identity from you anymore. Not now your guards have gone anyway." He pushed his hood back and took his mask off. I first noticed his dark hair which fell to his shoulders, he had dark eyes that showed no emotion. He was older than I had guessed, maybe early thirties.

"My name is Thomas. Thomas Metcalfe." He held his hand out for me to shake but I just stared at him

"Thomas? Your name is Thomas? I would have thought it was Neil or Hunter."

He rolled his eyes. "Neil? Do I really look like a Neil to you?"

"Yeah kind of. Why are you even here?"

"To talk. To help you out. I know your parents aren't around so I just wanted to help you, get you groceries that sort of thing."

I stared at him hard trying to figure out whether he was joking or not. It seems like he's telling the truth so I open the door wider.

"Why don't you come in?"

Thomas showed up almost everyday after that and eventually he introduced me to some of his friend around my age. I was a bit hesitant at first but I was surprised to find that I got on quite well with them all. There was Vanessa, Matt, Sara, Zach and Macey all together. When Thomas told me how they have been "eliminating" the Academy one member at a time I was horrified but I eventually came round to the idea. Soon after that I started training with combat and weapons and how to fit in any situation. A few weeks after that I moved in with them all. Ever since then we have all been working together to kill off the Academy.

I know it doesn't explain it very well but I'm not very good with flashbacks and back stories. If there is anything that I left out just ask and I will answer!
