Chapter 2: Lio

I lazily went to my room and dug myself under the comfortable blanket. I heard footsteps coming closer and it was really dumb of me to think that it was Kanna. The door was locked I had no idea what Kanna going to do.

“Nao?” A male voice surprised my making me shoot up to my feet.

“Who are you?” I snapped up and grabbed my pillow as if it was some kind of weapon.

“Hmm? Oh. Sorry for the intrusion. My name is Lio. I’m here to guide you through a hard training, Nao,” I quickly turned around and saw him face to face.

“Did my parents send you here?” I asked quickly making myself back-to -back with the wall.

“No, your parents didn’t send me and you have to complete a mission.” he said coming closer to me.

“What mission? Final Exams?! No! I’m not going to have some weird, random person tutor me,” I said.

“Random person…Oh you have your final exams…Let’s start your training as soon as possible.” He grabbed my hand forcefully and he walked me to the window.

Remember this is the 27th floor. As I looked down from the window, it was very high and windy. I felt a chill go down through my spine.

“What do you think you are doing?” I asked resisting but with his strength he pushed me to the window. 

“Fly.” he smiled at me as if this was part of his plan or something.

A sudden push came. I didn't scream but just looked down. A few seconds later I realized I that I was sreaming to the top of my lungs. Is Lio trying to kill me? Is he a shinigami (Japanese word for death god)? When Lio grabbed my hand, my body suddenly felt light as a feather. As if the wind was carrying me. I slowly opened my eyes, I saw an amazing view. A opened spacced area with the sun still shining brightly. We were flying! I couldn’t believe it. Before I knew it, we were on the ground floor.

“Okay, let me tell you the things you need to know. But don’t tell anyone” he said cautiously.

There, he was holding a necklace in front of me. It was beautiful. It was like a pearl but somewhat different. On top, there are small wings.

“You should wear this necklace to begin your mission.” He said.

“What in the world are you talking about? A mission?” I looked at him straight in the eyes hoping it was a joke.

“It is hard to explain. Once you wear this, you won’t be able to remove it. You shall be fighting with magic, flying, solving mysteries to cover and more. You will have opponents and one winner will get the grand prize.” He explained.

“Who is my opponent?” 

“There are the four elements with light and dark. Once you wear this necklace, you will know everything. Trust me.” 

I thought about it. It might be a prank. But since we flew… I'm not sure if I can trust him. Ha…My mind is messed up. If I agree to Lio, I might be sent somewhere weird. He came into my room without my permission, and he just pushed me out of the window! How in the world could I agree to a man who ramdonly pushes a person who came back from eating? I can't agree with him!

“Do I have a choice,” I said starting to walk backward.

“Nope,” He smiled as the necklace glowed.

I quickly ran away from him. I went inside the condo. I ran and ran from right to left, twisting and turning, hoping he wouldn't catch up. Then I went to the pool area. I froze.  There was something wrong. Something I couldn't believe it.
