The Sacred World

Chapter 22: Nameless

Lizo stared out the window, outside the class. He hadn't be focused, his only thought was that later that evening it was the night of the Full Moon. He was not only physically trying to prepare him for the transition, but also emotionally prepare himself. The process itself was a painful one. It would be hours of agony for anyone taking the turn, he had no other choice. He released a sigh and looked up. Fifteen more minutes until the lesson he was in would end and he'd be allowed to go to break. He tapped his desk repeatedly with the tip of his index finger, creating a rhythmic sound that was soft, but also loud enough for him to hear.

"Lizo, are you focusing?" asked the biology teacher.
Lizo's eyes shifted to him and then took a moment to let the question sink in. He finally realised what was being asked and then he nodded.

"Okay, then what are the vessels that are the site of gaseous exchange in the lungs?" asked the biology teacher.

"The alveoli," he replied dryly. He stared at the teacher for a few moments where the entire class was silent until the teacher verified his answer.

He sighed and looked back out the window. He tapped his desk once more and then finally dropped his eyes to see his reflection.

"I wonder if that idiot Banny has everything in line," he thought.

The bell rang and he rose to his feet and picked up his bag. Moving out of the classroom with a high speed he maneuvered around the students. He walked through a crowd of students, either rushing to their meet up spots and break. He danced through and went to the bathroom. He looked into the mirror available for others and then smiled. He was about to turn around and then saw Banny in the bathroom leaning over a wall and staring at him.

"Why are you here?" he asked staring at Banny.

"You're agitated, it's tripping me off," answered Banny as he stared at him.

"What do you mean?"

"Werewolf telepathy. Your heart rate spiked, it is affecting me. I'm sure that Chezray noticed as well."

Lizo brushed this off and pushed his hair back. Instantly his claws shot out.
He stared at his clawed fingers in shock, as Banny sighed.

"You're nervous," said Banny as he walked over to Lizo.

He placed his hand on Lizo's shoulder and gave an awkward smile.

"What's wrong, buddy?" he asked.

Just as he finished his sentence, someone else entered the toilet.
Albert, stared at the two.

"What are you guys planning to do tonight?" he asked agitated.

"What do you mean?" asked Lizo.

"I just got word that school would be ending early and no one had to be on school grounds from after 3pm. Now, I've just looked at it from the perspective of a person who is very high tell. Only one Disciplinary Committee member is allowed here and a special-grade student. Both of which you two are familiar with, so what's the big plot around here?" ventured Albert as he started raising his voice.

"Okay, you need to lower your voice. We don't need every single person in this building to know what we're planning. As for the DC officer thing, he won't be alone. Aizen is here, but he's decided to join Shania and Chad on their investigation on the caves this afternoon so he won't be here and that means only Chezray is available to look after the school," said Banny, "As for Chioma, her only duty is to cast a enclosure spell on the school so that Lizo, Abbey and I don't escape into the public."

"Escape into the public?"

"Did you forget what tonight is?" asked Banny.

Albert stared at him confused and Lizo stepped in saying, "It's the night of the Full Moon. Chezray requested that we use the school grounds for our evolution."
