Surira Academy: Game Of Ruins (ON-GOING)

Punishment

Third Person’s POV

The sun was about to rise, when Nyx reached the end of the forest where the portal was located. When he saw it, he entered the portal while carrying Kiara who was still unconscious. They reached the academy and were greeted by the cold breeze coming from the west.

Ang headmistress at ang ilang mga healer ay nakatayo sa kanilang harapan na kanina pa sila hinihintay. Nakita nila na walang malay si Kiara ay agad silang lumapit sa kanya. 

“She's poisoned.” wika ni Nyx sa pinaka pinuno ng mga healer ng academy. 

Nilapag niya si Kiara sa sahig at hindi alintana ang mga bakas ng dugo sa kanyang uniporme. Labis ang pag-alala niya na mapapansin sa itsura ni Avery. The lead healer placed her hand on Kiara's forehead to analyze the problem. When the healer was done she quickly turned to the other healers and said.

“Take her to the infirmary immediately,” wika ng lead healer.

Kusang lumutang ang katawan ni Kiara at may mahikang nakapalibot sa kanya. Nagkaroon ng barrier sa paligid niya na mala kyrstal. Kasabay nang pagkalat na berdeng enerhiya mula sa walang malay na katawan ni Kiara.

Nyx was about to walk towards the barrier when a healer stopped him. His brows knitted and his jaw tightened, surpassing his emotions. 

“We will take it from here, Nyx.”  wika ng head healer at kasabay na naglaho sa harapan niya ang dalawang healer, kasama ang katawan ni Kiara.

The remaining healers stood at the right side of the portal while waiting for the other members of the Oracle Council to return. 

Kinuyom ni Nyx ang kanyang kamao matapos ang pagkawala nila sa kanyang harapan. Pinigilan niya ang kanyang emosyon dahil alam niyang hindi makakabuti pa para kay Kiara kung magmatigas siya. Nagbuga siya ng hangin bago bumaling sa headmistress na kanina pa nasa tabi niya. 

“Where are the others?” the headmistress asked him. 

Napatingin ang headmistress sa kanyang relo at napansin na malapit na mag ala sais ng umaga. Lumagpas na sa oras ang pagdating ng Oracle Council mula sa kanilang group training. 

“They are on their way back to the academy.” wika ni Nyx habang nakatitig din sa portal na wala pa ring bakas ng kanyang mga kasama. 

“The headmaster and principal wants to speak to all of you after tending their wounds,” napalingon si Nyx kay headmistress dahil sa sinabi nito. 

Nyx knew that they might be given a punishment because of his injured teammates. Once again, he knew it was because of his failure being a captain. 

“Your team statistics dropped and you might lose your spot in the Game Of Ruins.” seryosong wika ng headmistress.

Nyx closed his eyes and calmed himself. He knew it was meant to happen again like last year. 

Inaasahan niya na mangyayari ito dahil wala silang healer at hindi naging maayos ang pakikipaglaban nila bilang isang groupo. 

“If you failed this again, Nyx, you might suffer the consequences.” wika ng headmistress.

Magsasalita na sana si Nyx nang lumabas sila Amirah sa portal. Kasabay nila Hailey at Isabella si Kairo habang nasa likuran si Dominic.

Lumapit sa kanila ang tatlong healers at napansin na mas malubha ang kalagayan ni Kairo. Patuloy pa rin ang pagdugo ng kanyang sugat dahil walang naitulong ang healing potion.

“I'll take Kairo to the infirmary immediately,” wika ng healer sa headmistress bago bumaling sa iba.

“The rest, follow me for further inspection.” anunsyo ng isa pang healer at kusa silang sumunod.
