Part 11: Behind the Curtain

At the prestigious Celestial Academy of Magic, a school known for shaping the brightest talents in the magical arts, the air crackled with excitement. Students flitted between classes, their voices rising in laughter and chatter. Among them was Macaque, a quiet figure who often blended into the background. By night, he transformed into Yinhe, a beloved singer-songwriter, whose melodic voice captivated audiences across the realm. But during the day, he was just another student—overlooked, bullied, and overshadowed by the school's star athlete, Wukong.

Wukong was everything Macaque was not: charismatic, outgoing, and effortlessly popular. The athlete seemed to bask in the spotlight, drawing admiration from students and faculty alike. Unbeknownst to Wukong, his popularity came at a steep cost to Macaque. The whispers and laughter that followed Wukong often turned into jeers aimed at Macaque, who felt the sting of their words every day. His fellow students, enthralled by Wukong's magnetic energy, found it easy to overlook the silent struggles of someone who dared to stand apart.

As the weeks passed, the tension between the two escalated. Macaque, exhausted from the constant bullying, often turned to his music as a form of escape. He poured his heart into his songs, crafting lyrics that spoke to his pain and longing to be accepted. Yet, the more he poured into his art, the more drained he became. He had also been pushing himself to master increasingly difficult magic spells, wanting to prove he was more than just a target for ridicule.

One chaotic afternoon, the atmosphere reached a breaking point. Students crowded the hallway, laughter and excitement swirling around like a summer storm. Wukong, in his typical carefree fashion, rushed past, inadvertently spilling a vibrant green potion all over Macaque. The liquid splattered across Macaque's robes, staining them with a color that seemed to mock him.

"Watch where you're going, Wukong!" Macaque snapped, frustration boiling over. "Maybe if you weren't so busy being the center of attention, you'd notice the people around you!"

Wukong blinked in surprise, his friends falling silent. "It was an accident, Macaque! You don't need to act like such a—"

Before he could finish, the tension ignited. Macaque felt a rush of anger and hurt. "You think this is funny? You don't even see the damage your obliviousness and stupidity causes!"

Just as fists began to clench, the principal intervened, her voice cutting through the chaos. "Enough! Wukong, you have detention for the rest of the week. Macaque, you're suspended for two days for escalating this situation."

As they parted ways, Macaque's heart sank. In that moment, the whispers grew louder. Students around him exchanged glances, some smirking, others rolling their eyes. The potion incident became fodder for gossip, and Macaque quickly found himself the subject of disdain. Later that day when macaque was cleaning the class room.

Macaque was almost done cleaning the classroom when four students burst in, their presence immediately shifting the atmosphere. As he wiped down a desk, he glanced up, wondering if they had forgotten something—maybe that abandoned bag sitting on a different desk, belonging to someone he didn't know. 

The group split up as they fanned out across the room, two of them gravitating toward him with mischievous, wicked grins plastered on their faces. One approached and practically sneered, asking if he was the troublemaker who had been "messing with Wukong" on the first day of school and if he was still causing issues for him. 

Macaque stuttered, attempting to explain that it was a misunderstanding—he wasn't trying to be a nuisance; he merely wanted to express his feelings, but it seemed like his intentions had been completely misinterpreted. Their laughter cut him off, and before he knew it, their magic seized upon him, binding him. Panic surged through him, and he fell to the floor, when one of the guys punched him. his nose starting to bleed from the rough treatment.
