Bodil had beaten me to the end of a hallway, and was jumping from foot to foot, a huge, idiotic grin on his face.
"Hurry up!" He said. I rolled my eyes, and jogged to the end of the hall. "This is the library, and also where Seto is most of the time" he said happily opening the door. Sure enough there was a poof of purple smoke from behind a shelf. Bodil ran up to it and knocked five times.
"Yeah Bodil?" A voice replied, followed by a bit of cursing.
"There's a new kid!" Bodil replied, unfazed by the obvious discontent of the speaker. The shelf opened like a door, to reveal someone dashing around, and picking up books, scanning the title and throwing them away. But instead of them just hitting the floor, they flew into a shelf neatly.
His brown hair flew around, barely contained to the messy rattail he had secured it in with a purple tie. A cape fluttered around him, and his faint veil of a sash moved up and down his arm as he reached for books, and items.
"Give me one second here" he said, picking up another book "aha! Here it is! Shadow Magic for idiots!" He said smiling, and turning around. "You'll be needing this!" He said handing me the book.
"Why?" I asked, turning it over, and scanning the covers.
"That's your magic type" Seto replied.
"Wait what?"
"You control shadows. You likely inherited from your parents, who both had the gene and therefore when combined gave you the trait. I can tell cause you obviously don't understand why you have it, or even that you had it" he said, still running around, and doing things. "Oh, Bodil here's that book you needed!" He said tossing Bodil a book. It had a colorful cover, and the title 'Experts Guide to Parkour'
"Thanks" he said, and started flipping through the pages.
"No, that's not what I mean, this place, these people have magic?!" I asked frantically holding the book to my chest.
"Yes. Now it's completely obvious your parents sent you here blindly" Seto said, obviously annoyed at the situation.
"So magic is real?" I asked in awe of the situation.
"Yeah. I have time magic. Well, kind of" Bodil said, looking up from his book. "Seto just has general magic"
"Quit reminding me" Seto muttered.
"Aw come on Set, you know you're the best in the school!" Bodil said, sliding beside Seto, while simultaneously closing his book.
"Yeah yeah yeah" Seto said, faintly blushing.
"Come on, where's that smile?" Bodil asked, poking Seto's face. Seto laughed quietly.
"Happy?" He asked
"Very"
"Umm, Bodil, the rest of the school?" I asked gingerly.
"Oh yeah! Sorry Set, I gotta go! Talk later though right?" Bodil said,walking over to the door.
"Not like I have much choice with you" Seto replied smiling brightly. Bodil laughed and pulled me out of the room with him. I followed him down the halls.
"We have to hurry, because we have class soon" he said, pointing out various courses, and teachers along the way. We had finally reached our destination.
"Good luck, now I gotta go, I usually help Mrs. Wellshire second block" he said, and walked off. I sighed, and looked at the door as the bell rang. I stood back as a flood of students emptied into the halls. Once it had died down, I walked in, and chose my seat, situating myself at the back. This should be interesting.
