Jasper and his two lackeys strike us in a blink of an eye. Rebecca starts throwing things at one of Jasper's friend, Mary starts punching the other guy with brute force and Jasper uses quick moves to hit me. The amount of force and strength Jasper uses is really surprising. As I keep defending myself, I remember that this is not my town. People here have powers and use their aura. That must be why Jasper is able to use such force and strength.

Jasper rushes forward trying to kick me, but I am quite flexible so I do continuous backflips to move away from him. I need to collect my breath and generate my aura to match his moves. As soon as I move a little far from him, I immediately take a deep breath. Before I can even think of releasing my aura, Jasper moves like flash and stands in front of me grinning.

"You might be quite flexible, twisting your body. But, it's no use against me." he smirks and punches me hard on my jaw that I fall down spitting blood. I feel a huge surge of pain at once. Just how much strength did he use? I had fights before but no one ever punched me this hard.

Before I can get up, Jasper kicks my stomach tightly and I cough up more blood. I hold my stomach tightly due to the sharp pain. I look up at him and find Jasper laughing as he takes pleasure in beating me. I don't like it. My blood boils with rage and anger. Jasper lifts his leg to kick me again, but I quickly slide him off his feet and get up. He falls with a thud and its my turn to smirk at him. Without giving him time, I immediately kick his groin and stomach repeatedly as he lets out growls in pain. I lift him up by his collar and punch him as hard as I can, but nothing happens to his face. He laughs out and spits the blood aside and leans in closer.

"Is that all you've got? This is not enough to defeat me darling" he whispers in my ear and lifts me by my collar into the air and throws me aside into a pool of trays. My head hurts very badly and I get up slowly holding my head. Jasper appears in front of me again and smiles cruelly.

"You are just like your dad, weak and pathetic. It's a shame you belong to such a strong clan." he laughs.

As soon as I hear his words, murderous rage takes over my mind. What does he even know about my dad? My dad is not weak. Memories of my dad flash in my mind. The way he always smiled no matter what happened, the way he always encouraged me and my brother and was always there to support our family.....there is no way he is weak.

I clench my fists tightly and a strange kind of anger takes over me. It is the same feeling I got, when I first released my aura. Automatically, I feel energy pulsing through my veins, filling every inch of my body. I clench my fists so tightly that blood starts dripping from my palm.

"What? Defeated already?" Jasper says and I look up at him glaring. Rage, anger and all sorts of emotions cloud my mind and I feel a great urge to kill Jasper. I breathe loudly and look at him.

"Your eyes.....what's happening to you? You look different.....who are you?" Jasper gasps in fear.

I get up and walk towards him, ready to tear his head off. Jasper walks back, gasping in fear and I immediately punch him so hard that he falls dashing away into a wall, causing a huge crack. All the students around me immediately start screaming and start running. Jasper lies down with blood dripping from his head. I walk towards him and pick him by his collar. I punch him repeatedly till his cheeks become blue and bleed.

"She is going to kill him!" a girl shouts and I turn around to find two girls rushing towards me. They look familiar. I look at them keenly for a while and recognize they are Mary and Rebecca. They hold my shoulder and pull me apart from Jasper.

I struggle and shove both of them away. They fall to the ground and move back in fear. A sudden urge to kill them rings in my head. As I look at their confused faces, I forget their names. Who are they? I don't know. But, I just need to kill them.

"Scarlett! Calm down." the ash blonde girl walks towards me.

"Please....get back to your senses." The long hair girl says.

"Let's take him to infirmary" a boy says and lifts Jasper. No. I won't let that guy live. I will kill him for sure.

I immediately run towards them and punch the boy away. I hold Jasper buy his collar and find a fork beside me. I lift it up to stab him but suddenly, my senses blur. A cold hand lies at the back of my neck.

"Sleep...you monster..." I hear a voice behind me.

I turn back and find a man with light blonde hair. He looks tensed but calm. I don't recognize him, but I feel like digging this fork into his throat.

The man holds the back of my neck tightly and I feel a burning sensation. My eyelids automatically drop and I let go of Jasper. As I close my eyes, I recognize that the man is the Vice Principal. How did I forget him? I drop to the ground, drowsiness taking control of me and my vision goes black.

I wake up at the infirmary and my head hurts badly. How did I end up here? What happened to me? I close my eyes and try to recollect what happened. My eyes widen as the memories keep replaying in my head. The fact that I almost killed a person in rage, sends shivers down my spine.

"Awake?" I hear a voice suddenly, bringing me out of my thoughts.

I turn aside to find Armaros sitting on a chair with a concerned look.

"What are you doing here?" I ask him weakly.

"Checking if your alive" he says.

"Well, it's your bad luck am still alive" I smirk at him.

"Yeah...I don't know how long I have to bear your torture." He says.

"Your entire life." I say smiling.

Just as Armaros and I start speaking, Cana opens the infirmary and shoots an angry look at me, seeing me and Armaros close and alone.

"I-its not what you think. He just came to check up on me." I say.

"Why are you so scared of that show piece?" Armaros rolls his eyes. Cana glares at me with rage and looks as if she would burst out crying any moment.

"Shut up and get out." I say.

"Show gratitude atleast once in your lifetime." Armaros says irritatingly and walks away.

Cana immediately holds his hand and blushes.
"Ahm...um...y-you can stay..here..Henry...if you want...like we three can stay here...y'know..."

"Sorry....I have something's to take care of...besides your friend needs you..." Armaros says and frees himself walking out.

Cana gives a disappointed look and looks at me angrily.

"Go to the vice principal's office. They are calling you." She says and bangs the infirmary door shut, storming away.

I slowly walk out of the bed and I don't feel any pain at all. I am sure Jasper hit me hard enough to break my bones but my face and body feels completely alright.

I walk out of the infirmary and into the corridors. All the students who walk past me gossip amongst themselves.

I reach the vice principal's office in the top floor of the second tower. A huge wooden door is infront of me and I hear voices.

"You better reconsider your decision, Edward." a man says. It's not the vice principal's voice.

"There is no reconsidering, Connor" Mr. Edward says coldly.

I look through the keyhole and find a tall man with muscular build talking to Mr. Edward who is sitting on a chair.

"Scarlett has to be expelled and sent back to the town....." Mr. Edward says and my mind goes blank at once.....
