Sweet Remedy

Untitled Part 2

AN: I finished this like eons ago, but too lazy to update.

Alice Crest Academy was an elite school for magician only. Theias were the most elite among students at Alice Crest Academy and among Theias, there were the Raiders, the most destructive magician among the Theia. The Raiders could be identified with heavy Mana constrainer, a pure gold earring with Alice Crest carved on it. Many student, Theia include tried their best to avoid contact with any of the Raiders, and some of them like Andy has a personal grudge with one of the Raider.

Mint Tea never really had grudge with any of the Raiders, quite close actually, especially the Raiders ex-leader, Downpour who had graduated the year before and Lightning, the youngest Raider. Mainly because of their personality.

Lightning childishness remind him of his sister back at home. Getting the genes mostly from their father, Mint Tea always wonder how it might to see one younger sibling from childish whine into a mature teenage. Listening for their problem or helping with math homework never happen to him. His little sister was an iceberg from south pole much to his regret.

His relationship with Downpour was more complicated. Someone just need to keep Downpour's blackmailing tendencies in check and although not very helpful, once or twice a week a student will knock his door at night to ask for help to subdue Downpour, only when it fit him well.

After a year Downpour graduated, Mint Tea announced officially in his head, he can't stand the Raider's successor, one and only existed in the whole world-wide Storm. Not only he was the most powerful and destructive in Raider history, he's the rudest and ungrateful brat (although drop dead handsome), obstinate and hard-headed guy.

It was also impossible to know what this guy thinking of sometime. While Mint Tea's head was going numb and unable to process the scene enfolded in front of him, the Raider's leader was arguing with Sir Nathan where Mint Tea should be sleeping. In his old room or Storm's room indeed.

If another student or professor went by, they would thought Storm would want to keep his privacy and ordered Mint Tea to stay in his old room and Sir Nathan defending a Pueri's right to sleep in his master's room. On the contrary, it was Sir Nathan who asked permission from Storm to allow Mint Tea stay in his old room and become a Pueri in name only, knowing Mint Tea would rather being a Gamma than live in a room with Storm. Sir Nathan thought he would agree seeing that Storm was kind of a lone wolf.

So, when Storm objected and said the blunette should stay in his room instead not in Sir Nathan prediction at all, Mint Tea made a noise akin to ' take back the word of me being a Pueri for Storm', of course it was too late. For Storm didn't take no and Sir Nathan was desperate. A Pueri with he/she master's permission may take missions according to the Pueri ability. A Pueri was also the Theia's apprentice, until the Pueri's magic could take form, to become a Theia.

In this case, Sir Nathan promised him if he did well in the next exam, or maybe, if the mission he will take tomorrow was extremely successful, he'd get his Theia status back.

Looking at Storm's back while the walked along the hallway to Storm's room. Most students still in classes but there were some students littering around during class exchange, staring at them openly.

Not only that they rarely saw the Raiders leader but also seeing the blunette following him. They began huddled together and whispering to each other. Frequently on the good term with Gammas and Pueris, some throwing jealous or excited glance, but most of the students looked at him worriedly, wondering what kind of shit he ended up with the powerful and perilous man.
