I woke up to a shaking, the kind that cracks your neck and irritates you half to death.
Wow, I'm really drowsy. and if I try to stand up, my legs start to shake
I collapsed back to the chair and for a few minutes, my legs felt like a thousand needles were constantly stabbing at them. I looked at the large digital clock on the wall.
10:00? how long was I out?
An older husky, with pure white fur turned to me. "Your Rin, am I correct?"
I yawned and rubbed my aching legs. "Yes, that's me." I confirmed.
His blue icy eyes grew even more lax than they had been before, as if an earlier fear had crumbled into a mere thought that did not deserve the time it took to create. "I was waiting for the moment I would get to see you. Seekers have always interested me." he said with a somewhat dangerous tone.
I cringed slightly at the words. Why? What had caused me to cringe? Am I just loosing it?
I made a split second decision to continue the conversation instead of trying to leave. "Um, who are you exactly?"
He gave a slight smile, revealing his white teeth. "You will know me as Artemis Galadius and for the next six years continue to know me as that. I hope that during your stay, you do not go mad. Be warned, If you do not want to experience the horrible affliction of death, please desert the Oblivion team."
His words seemed to echo though my head, repeating them over and over. I couldn't awnser even if I wanted to. He shifted his attention and continued to tend to Lucas, who at the time was in another lexicon. I took the opportunity to slip away. Opening the steel doors, I turned to find myself in front of an old wall. the steel door closed behind me leaving me stuck in between the walls. The hallway had the same marble as the oblivion room, but it was colder, and dustier. The brick wall that held me captive let a slither of cold wind though a crack. Then, the stone wall slid magically open revealing a sky blue wolf. She had white fur which turned blue at the tips, her cloak was white with magical runes that seemed to blend in perfectly with the white snow, and her eyes were blue, but at the moment, were filled with fear more than teal.
She gave me a almost stressed glance and then looked back into the school hall where she had come from.
How does she know this rooms location. She gave me a desperate look and pulled me out of the wall. It was kind of hard to explain. It was a space between the steel door and the wall that slides open. But anyways, she grabbed me by the wrist and muttered a word so softly, I didn't catch it. The door slid closed as soon as the final syllable was uttered and she continued to drag me along.
I'm sorry, but who the hell are you? I wanted to say but I contained my words. She continued to pull me across the college with a firm grasp, saying nothing. in a window, I could see my reflection, this random persons reflection, and, crap! A hyena. Bruce.
"I'm sorry I dragged you into this." she said. "Literally." she gave a sort of forced laugh and let go of my arm. we continued across the school.
I rubbed my wrist, and realized that my legs were fine "Who exactly are you?" I asked the wolf.
"My name's Tifa" She said simply "And may I ask the same of you?"
"Rin, my names Rin." I answered "So, he still trying to barge his way onto the team?"
"The idiot stalking me? Yeah, trying to bully his way onto the Oblivion team. He's getting desperate too. Making empty threats now and even trying to buy his way onto the team."
