☆SCARLETT THE DAUGHTER OF LIGHTNING☆

Chapter VII My Not So Dead Beat Up Dad

Dam this school work is it just me or is this school getting harder and harder everyday. I haven't seen Agatha in days since we dont have any classes together it feels longer. Why do I even bother I go to the library to attempt my work and someone else ends up doing it for me ugh.

Atleast Tedros was able to help a bit the past few days.

I set my books aside and looked down outside the window at gorgeous scenery of the flowers plants and the princes? I didn't know they were training today? Who am I kidding they train everyday. I spotted Tedros practicing archery. I watched as he hit the bullsye every time. That's when Sophie came up behind him and they started talking. Sophie? what's she doing here, before I could react at the corner of my eye was...

"AGATHA!?" I practically yelled causing heads to turn. I covered my mouth with my hand in second hand embarrassment. Until I took my hand down and whispered sorry.

As I was trying to figure out what they were saying I felt some creep behind me. Without a second thought I instantly turned around and ended up scaring the person behind me. "Oh Daphne you almost gave me a fright" I said on edge but she looked more frightened then me

"Gods sake, Hildy. I gave you a fright? You turned around faster than lightning. How'd you even know I was behind you?" She breathed heavily, with a hand on her chest.

"I don't know," I sighed. "Oh while you're here, do you mind helping me with this assignment," I asked in attempt to cover the fact I was basically stalking Tedros. "Uh sure Dovey sent me to help you anyway," she looked out the window I'm sitting beside and seen who was down there. "Wait were you staring at Tedros down there who seems to be flirting with Beatrix" Daphne pointed out, in a confused tone.

My heart drop as I quickly turnes me head to the window. But Tedros wasn't talking to Beatrix. "HA made you look! Aww you really do like him," Daphne joked laughing at me. "But in all seriousness, why is he talking to that never. What's her name? Sophie? The supposedly 'good one' they always show their true nature in the end," she rolled her eyes. "Don't worry Hildy, you're way better than her."

He's so close to her that it looked like they were kissing, but he was teaching her how to shoot an arrow. Daphne is right about one thing whether your an ever or a never you'll always show your true colours in the end no matter how hard you try not to.

Today's the last class until we find out who's being chosen for the trial by tale. For once class is going to be interesting 'cause we're finally getting our finger glows at last I thought we were never going to get them.

"Class as most of you already know you will be getting your finger glows remember that these act as a training wheel. I will relock them when you graduate or once you've proven yourself. Line up" Adella ordered.

The evers and nevers lined up in two lines not very long ones of course cause there's 10 of us. Hester bunked in first Adella unlocked her finger glow and it was a deep blood red it actually made sense she gives off that colour.

If I don't get red that'll be a bit embarrassing especially since my mum got red. But hers was more of a ruby red. Next was Lucy my good friend as expected her glow was a honey yellow, bright just as her. Right after me was Gideon he had a proud evil smirk as if he knew what colour he was going to get I'm assuming he wants green but what made me laugh was his reaction.

"WHAT BLACK BUT MY MOTHER-" Gideon began but was disrupted. "Gideon I am not in the mood for your moaning and yelling I've a headache. So shush," Adella finished with a sigh you can tell she's had a long day I don't know what though.
