Chapter 2, Bad days
Beep, Beep, Beep
'Urk, damn it alarm clock.' Zeke sighed as he turned it off. He rubbed his eyes then let them adjust before looking at his alarm clock, which had the wrong time. 'Oh shoot! Wait is this still set for that time in sport's day?' he mind-face-palmed as he rushed outside to get a shower and a quick breakfast.
"Bye mum and dad!" he said passing them.
"Bye, you two" noogie-ing his twin siblings as he got out the door.
'Crap I'm so late and dead!' Zeke pondered as he tried to balance his way to school with his bike.
Ring, Ring, Ring
"No, no, no" Zeke repeated as he raced to the open classroom door. Screech! He made it to class! "Yes!" he exclaimed his victory to everyone. His teacher Mrs. Key clapped her hands together and made a comment,
"Very good Mr. Blake, but I wouldn't be celebrating yet if I were you..." Zeke looked at his teacher in confusion.
"If you remember today is the last day of the term..." Cheers erupted from the classroom. "BUT! Today is your final English Exam of this term so I hope you studied." Everyone dies in the inside. 'Great! Can this day get any worse?' he contemplated. 'Wait did I jinx myself?'
Tick, Tock, Tick, Tock, Tick~
Term break was finally nearing and he was stuck doing an exam his first period. There was 5 minutes left and just in great timing he didn't know how to answer the last three questions. He waited a few moments before finally getting the answer. He mumbled to himself calling him an idiot for not realising this sooner.
"Alright, time is up! Please drop your pencils and let go of your worries. Pass your paper to the front and leave," The teacher exclaimed. Damn it! He wasn't done yet. With his fellow classmates trying to pass the papers to the front he was writing like a mad man.
"Mr. Blake, drop your pencil and LEAVE!" The teacher insisted.
"I'm almost done, just please five seconds!" Before his classmates would do a countdown to pressure the child, the teacher boomed.
"Ezekiel Leo Blake! Drop that pencil right this insta-"
"Okay here done!" He interrupted while passing the papers to the front desk. Then he quickly grabbed his bag and went outside to prevent any trouble. 'Phew, I almost died!' He thought. Just at that right instance, he heard a squeal!
"Ah! Please don't do this!" a familiar voice yelled.
"Or what blondie? You gonna cry? Aww poor baby!" the bully teased. It was Deanna getting bullied again.
"Let go of her you freakin sickos!" shouted Mikayla who was being blocked by the bully's lackies. "Move jackass!" She punched the mindless idiot right in the jaw. Of course, they retaliated back by slapping her face.
"Hey! What the hell are you freakin doing!" Zeke finally spoke.
"Oh look at this, it's your knight in shining armour. Is that shrimp your boyfriend." They teased. He was about to make a comeback until a voice boomed behind him.
"No we're not, but if you don't freakin let go of them I'll freakin snap your brain-dead head." It was Austin and he was utterly pissed. And standing right next to him was Kyle who looked mad.
"Oh look its red head!" They called out.
Austin ran to them and punched him right in the jaw, Kyle smashed the two kids heads together, Mikayla kicked one of the lackies in the balls while Deanna spat of the bully's face. 'Oh shiz, if they're not gonna stop we're gonna get in trouble.' Zeke thought, he tried to go and stop the fight but ended up elbowing one of the bullies by accident. And exactly at that time, the teacher who had just heard the commotion, was able to see that.
"What is going on here?" It was Mrs. Key and she was pretty much fuming. "You seven students are going to get it now!" she exclaimed.

Time Skip to End Of Day
"Man I can't believe this, we got detention at the end of the term. That's an hour of our freedom wasted" Zeke groaned.
"Meh, I mean it was worth it, they were fighting our friends" Austin replied.
"Pssh plus you didn't do shiz, you just 'elbowed' one of them," Kyle joked.
"Well I'm sorry I didn't want to spend an hour in detention" Zeke countered.
"But anyway I'm grateful for you guys saving us," Deanna chirped. They talked while walking in the hallway a bit more before entering the classroom of detention. There was no teacher which was odd, but I guess since it was the last day any teacher wouldn't want to stay in their mini vacation. So they just sat around a table like good students and waited, talked, joked around and chatted about what they were gonna do during their school break.
"I think I'm going on a road trip up north!" Deanna beamed.
"I'm going to visit my relatives back in my hometown," said Austin.
"I have to go to Lakewood for a photography contest" Mikayla mentioned.
"Wow sucks to be you guys, I'm going abroad and travelling the world!" Kyle stuck his tongue. Zeke just nodded and listened to his friends. They had such interesting lives and he was just... Him. Just a boy who had strangely orange-coloured hair who wore an unzipped white hoodie, with an un-tucked light blue shirt, normal dark blue pants and white shoes.
"So... Um Zeke are you doing anything special?" Mikayla asked. Oh, he was caught!
"Well um... I'm not really doing anything this time. My parents have to go somewhere for work so I'm alone. I was hoping at least one of you guys stayed so I would have company..." Zeke muttered quietly at the end bit.
"Pfft, Hahaha, Blakey's gonna be alone this break!" cried Kyle while clutching his stomach. Until he got whacked in the head by Mikayla.
"Sorry about that dude. We didn't really know about that." She apologised.
"Oh no, no, no! It's not your fault! It's my fault for blabbering on about my problems. Sorry for making you worry!" Zeke said trying to make the girl happy. "Anyway, you guys have that charm I gave you so I'll be where you guys are in spirit!" Everyone looked at their charm. "I was surprised you guys actually still have it. I thought you guys would just throw it out.
"Why would we! This is a gift from you so we should have accepted it with lots of Gratitude!" Deanna said
"Yeah, if you put a lot of effort in making one thing, people should not be doubted about what they do. Anyway sorry for laughing" Kyle nodded. Oh, Zeke felt like he wanted to cry but held it in. Pretty sure it was obvious thought but he held his charm up. So did everyone, smiling.
"Oh guardians of this land, please bring aid and bring back our fallen heroes!" A voice cried out.
"Um, what the hell was that? Zeke was that you?" Austin questioned.
"Uh no! That was more of a girl's voice?" Zeke sounded uncertain.
"Well I mean you do have a high pitched voice" Kyle teased. Suddenly the voice was heard again.
"Please help us... Please guardians of Spiris Cuzuno! Help us!" Suddenly a large crack appeared and destroyed time and space. They were being sucked in.
"Waah! What's happening I'm scared!" Deanna cried out. Their charms suddenly glowed out and became a blinding light
