Astrovoid Shower- Celestial University Book 2: A Bully Romance

Chapter 33: Twin Troubles

"Wait," trying to think about her previous actions. "When we first met at the Bistro?"

"Just to make sure she was still in shape and get you back into Celestial. Someone needed to help Delta ensure Gorgon wouldn't abuse Ainsley any further."

"The switches? My parent's corpses?"

"Jun and Lumin never told me where they were being mass produced. I didn't know either. Umbra's castle is filled with too many Voids, Wali might remember, but it has to be somewhere in Saiban."

"Wait, the attack. You sent out a tweet and let Lumin know?"

"That was still the plan, but Delta had to make sure Lumin didn't trick the professors into leaving campus early. But Leo said his benefactor would keep the heirs detained."

"So Jun left them. But why did you go so hard on the professors?"

"Scald's is the only one we could trust. Tychonis is a perv, and Tenma and Stone are only teaching for status and prestige. If you didn't befriend the Uyocrons or Lorena, your body wouldn't be ready to absorb any Voids without your element affinity maxed out."

His hands were on his hips. "Shame, you and Ty seem to have something in common."

She pouted, smacking the air next to him. "I made some mistakes. He continues his accidents and messes with people's minds to satisfy his own ego. Be careful"

"Then why did you split yourself in two?"

"Cluster and I agreed to reveal I was a spy, but you weren't the ones who killed my parents. I just let his ego over using me to break you, he forgot he was the one who murdered my parents."

"But they were going to get used for the presentation?"

"Yeah, they worked with Quermas to make it easier for him. He wanted to invite the other Planetary Presidents to show them it was possible, but I accidentally leaked to Cluster the image thinking it was Wali in disguise. You," recalling the night of the event, shaking.

"It wasn't your fault," causing her to grip onto his hand.

"And it wasn't yours earlier. Wali didn't come back until the day of the event and both he and Xia's mom were affected differently to the event."

"She and Qian got sick, and Wail's durability was tainted by the massive influx from the attack?"

"Yeah, though," glaring, "one of those might be feigning for sympathy points," shaking it off. "But I needed to find a way to help you weaken Cluster but drop your allies without killing them. Unfortunately, Wali got experimented on if I couldn't get to him first."

"So Cluster could use his Chameleon powers to conceal himself."

"And without all eighty-eight StellArts, they can't recharge to accommodate everyone?"

"You're more observant than I gave you credit for."

"So you saved up your magic holding Wali back while healing everyone?"

"Awnh, you do get me," teasingly touched. "Do you still hate me?"

"Well, I mean there were easier avenues for you to get us to this point, but I wish you didn't have to go through all of that."

When he looked, she grinned while tears escaped her eye corners..

"It's not easy hurting and bullying the person you're in love with," laughing as more puddles dropped, "while keeping track of all the lies and lives you're concocted. But I couldn't keep it from you forever."

He refused to let her go, getting the full scope of the scenario, sighing.

"We both need a massive amount of therapy."

Both of them ended up sharing a laugh together, reminiscing one another of the genuine moments they've had to bond between all the craziest and her scheming.

"Can't argue there. We'll have to separate for a while," wiping off her tears, "but this is the first step to reach our dream. When this is all over, we find your brother, we save the world, I want more moments like this for us."

He was about to ask about the heirs when they heard Terra's variation of gunfire, turning back to spot the news reporters being attacked by a Lynx Void, prompting Calypsa's phone to get people telling her to check the live screening.

The Admiral punched the air through the window and cracked it into pieces, hurling it out and smashing them into the pavement.

She prompted them to take a pill, stripping the essence out from her, while her soldiers shot it down, revealing it to be Alsci Lynics but it was too late.

The reporter showed the world a recording of a night way earlier in the beginning of the school semester.

Sehki and Calypsa stared down at the conversation of Xia, Taylor, Rigal, and Ainsley discussing with Cluster, including the negotiations with your family have already been arranged for that, confirming to the whole world their involvement with the Astrovoids.

"Oh no."

Ainsley's words spoke for the group. No matter how this looked, Taylor's face screamed this was going to screw their reputation even worse.

And Jun summoned a geyser in front of him. As it fell, the quartet watched a swarm of soldiers surround him, crashing through the door.

"The Justice Council has allow been allowed to impede in under-

"Jun Hinata, we've received enough intel that requires you to be brought in for questioning."

They also surrounded the heirs as Xia watched her father get handcuffed with the most magic dampeners to fae.

"The rest of you will have to come with us for an extensive investigation."

Xia protested. "But my mom and younger-"

"We will have to keep them occupied."

The Admiral had them investigate the entire household, but were unable to find Qian, the Shakuheld's corpse, or Flint, prompting her to cut the time for Delta, Lyncis, Xia, Wali, and Cluster to leave.

Calypsa slowly pulled Sehki by his head, spotting he was ready, embracing the seconds of warmth between their lips.

"Even when apart, we'll stop the Horrorscopes, together."

He returned her broom, agreeing to keep that promise.
