The Chronicles of Navin: Journey to the promised land

Chapter 9: New Academy.. New annoying roommate.

Useful Tip: NEVER Screw up during the performance session. Trust me, you wouldnt want to end up in room 300.

It literary is the worst room in the whole dorm.. It reeks dead bugs and looks like it got ran over by a tractor. Plus, there are no elevators in this weirdo Magic school so unless you're a friggin' bird, reaching all the way to the top isnt gonna be easy.

Good News: I have a room mate. So that means I don't have to clean everything alone.

Bad News: Zion's my room mate.

I have had enough with this guy and his annoying dickheadness.

But the reason why he's staying with me is something really worth remembering.

He accidentally electrocuted Mrs. Mungall with his static "afterschocks" In his performance.

I have to admit, That was probably the most amusing thing that happened all day..

As for the rest of the day.. Well it went by pretty quickly. I realized that being schizophrenic is actually normal here. Infact, it gives us an ability to see and detect monsters. Which I admit is pretty cool. (SUCK ON THAT, THERAPISTS!)

After the performance session, the rest of us were redirected to what looked like a Military School for delinquents.. The open space was filled with tall trees everywhere.. As we got closer, I noticed the huge slightly visible force field which stretched farther than I thought. I tried my best to stay away from it as possible, while Mrs. Mungall went on yapping and explaining school rules while giving us a tour around the entire academy.

The Academy had 4 huge main buildings, the elementary building for kids who are ages 5-12. The intermediate building for middle-schoolers. And of course the highschool building. When we came across the humongous training field, I expected to see people in robes with magic wands and huge glasses poofing spells everywhere. Just like in Harry Potter or something, but hey.. Everything was entirely different.

Instead, I saw people wearing dark green cargo pants and white t-shirts with different prints on the back, trying to make it through a dangerous obstacle course complete with tall walls, fiery tires and a man wearing a drill sergeant-esque clothing who spat really mean (but at the same time amusing) insults in the mega phone.

"MURPHY! DO YOU WANT ME TO DUCT TAPE YOUR EYEBALLS UNTO THE BACK OF YOUR HEAD SO YOU CAN WATCH ME KICKING YOUR LIMPY ARSE!?"

He shouted at a scrawny boy with short, raven hair and thick glasses who I guess was attempting to climb a rope. But by the looks of it, he wasnt doing so well. He was holding unto the rope for dear life and was just hanging there, unmoving. like a monkey who got shot by a stun gun.

"S-SIR NO SIR!"

The boy answered back, as he tried to push his body upwards.The word "Elemental" was printed on the back of his t-shirt.

"THEN STOP BEING A LOUSY ACROPHOBIC MAGGOT! THE SKY IS YOUR TERRITORY! YOU'RE A WIND MAGE, ARE YOU NOT!? CLIMB FASTER!"

"R-Right on it Sir!"

"AND YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO KEEP CLIMBING UNTIL I FIGURE OUT WHAT YOU HAD FOR THANKSGIVING!"

I decided to stay and watch them a little bit. Just so Id be warned about the kind of environment they have here. Besides, hearing Mrs. Mungall talk all day is starting cause ringing in my ears. I needed a break. Come to think of it, I wouldnt be surprised if she turned out to be a drill sergeant, she likes giving orders and she yells a lot. I think its the perfect job for her.

Meanwhile, my attention was diverted to a girl with auburn hair who stood in front of the wooden dummy with her eyes closed. She also had the word "Elemental" Printed on the back of her white shirt.
