Getting out from the petrified state this quickly, the nurses that were around the infirmary prayed and blessed this miracle while the ones assigned to her quickly started to take care of her. Meanwhile Principal Haydos' grip was still strong on me and he kept squeezing hard, asking what I did to her. I was still trying to process the situation and I wasn't aware of doing anything so I couldn't reply to him. Principal Idarin saw me panicking. He pushed the other principal gently away and handed him over the brown bottle with the dust, telling him to take care of the thing that was captured inside. Principal Idarin then put his wrinkly left hand on my shoulder and with other arm he motioned me to walk to the open space of the infirmary, spot between the two rows of beds on each side of the room where we could talk more in private. The nurses continued doing their jobs, cleaning bandages, creams or medicine while two or three of them hopped around the girl, checking her vitals, writing down the results into this little book one of them carried, calming the poor girl down because she was suddenly blind and was panicking. Making something happen again, yes, that's me, classic. I only wished her a fast recovery but maybe my powers are...actually evil. Did I cause her blindness? My powers stem in telekinese and I am pretty sure I didn't say any spell so how could I? Principal Idarin asked me about the situation calmly and let me explain it whole.
Principal Idarin: Can you tell us, what happened?
Me: Nothing much, really.. I was on my way to the testing like you told me to. Since the nurses were away for a minute and you were discussing something with Principal Haydos, I took the opportunity to walk up to her bed and just wanted to wish her a fast recovery. Then she started seizing and the rest, you know.
Principal Haydos: You didn't say any incantation?
Umbras Principal's voice resonated from behind me. I turned around to face him, leaving Principal Idarin standing behind me. I was thinking hard, just in case I missed something but I really did nothing and I don't know any resurrection spells or incantations that would bring someone back from the dead, if that's even possible. I felt a warm hand ony my right shoulder so I turned my head slighty to see who it is. It belonged to Principal Idarin who gave me a soft smile, his eyes turning into two lines, his wrinkles becoming even more prominent and he told me to take my time, try to remember if I did anything. I looked down at my feet and took a deep breath. But I couldn't think of anything, just a genuine wish for her to get better. Principal Haydos walked up to me and Principal Idarin. I saw him handing over the glass bottle to someone. I followed to the end of the extended arm to notice two smaller hands grabbing the bottle and taking it. It was Professor Xyla. She only nodded after she got a hold of the bottle and then left. Principal Haydos asked me once more about the situation so I explained myself again.
Me: No, nothing I swear. I only held her hand.
Nurse: Looking over her chart, we noticed that she is a Hades descendant. Could just luck this time.
One of the nurses walked away from the bed and joined our conversation with a little book in her hands, showing it to the principals. Both of them took small steps to get closer to the nurse, both of them standing on each side of the petite and slim woman figure as they read what she was showing them. After confirming what the nurse said, Principal Haydos calmed down and looked at Principal Idarin who nodded and agreed with the nurse. I was intrigued upon hearing "Hades descendant" so I wanted to know more and also check that small book. Trying to stretch myself, getting on my tip toes to see what it was, I saw a photo of the girl, her name, Gaia, and also other information. Do they keep detailed information about all of us? Do they perhaps know who my parents are? Maybe if I ask Principal Idarin in private about my file, I could find out something more. Now I need to focus on this test that is supposed to tell me about my power which I forgot about for a second until Principal Idarin reminded me about it.
