Ivy's POV
The new boy Dan will be sitting next to me this week and next to him Nino. They are already becoming really good friends to me. In front of me sits Nick and Andrew as always and next to them Paul. In front of them sits Alex, Lauren and Chris.
The day goes by fast and I'm feeling happy for once when school ends. Nick was more of a flirt today than ever before but I can't say that I'm complaining. Andrew was kinda flirty too. Chris is simply amazingly funny. Paul mostly tries to understand what's going on since he's moved here from France only half a year ago and doesn't speak English that well yet. Dan and Nino have been just really friendly and I almost trust them. I have trust issues because of the accident that don't want to fade away.
I say bye to my friends and start walking home.
"Ivy wait!" I hear Nick's voice and turn around. "I forgot to give you your notes earlier today! Here you go." He scrambles a few neat sheets of paper from his bag and gives them to me.
"Thanks." I fold them and put them in my bag. "Bye!" I turn to go but Nick hugs me.
"Please tell me if you're not okay." He whispers in my ear and pulls away before I have time to react. "Bye!" He says cheerfully and walks away. I shrug surprised and turn back towards home.
When I'm almost home a hear a familiar screech. An ard. Where can I hide? Where's my pocket knife? There's too many people around here. Hope they don't see anything.
I look up and see the ard is already plummeting towards me.
"Ivy!" I hear several screams and people run to me. The only thing I can concentrate on though, is finding my pocket knife. I finally find it and flung up my hands in the x-liked gesture on top of my head and kneel to the ground.
I'm just in time. When my knee hits the ground the ard falls to the ground. It's head impaled by my knife. I fall down on the ground. Partially of shock, partially of exhaustion.
"Ivy!" I hear someone scream and they run to me. "Wow!" I hear several gasps. I open my eyes and can see Dan, Chris, Paul, Nino, Andrew and Nick stand around me and the ard. The magicals.
"Hide the ard with your magic. Make it so that the people don't walk towards it. Hide it." I cough and lay down my head on the ground. I hear them mumble some words, probably some kind of spell.
"Now the ard is invisible to normal people and it's hidden so that it pushes people away from it's nearness. We are also in a secret bubble right now, people can't see us." Someone explain to me and it sounds like Dan's voice. Someone kneels next to me.
"You okay Ivy? Ivy answer me." Nick's voice brings me back somehow and I can see clearly again.
"Yeah, was just a bit shocked."
"Come on, let's get you home. We will all walk with you." Nick helps me up, careful not to touch my torso. I look down and can see a small blood stain form on y right ribs. The cut must have re-opened. Darn it.
Nick's POV
Well, now we can safely say we all know who the Mystery is. I think to the other boys. I hear yeahs. This competition will be interesting. But we need to clear a few things, who of you is single?
I'm not, I have a boyfriend. Dan blushes but seems proud anyway.
Me neither, I have a girlfriend. Nino answers, blushing too.
I am. Chris is as cheerful as ever. But I saw a cute brunette in class today.
Me too. Paul answers. Does he really have the accent in his thoughts too?
As am I. Andrew, I almost forgot he was here. Why does he have to be a magical?
Okay so only two of five will be competing for her heart too, not only the title of hero. I hope we all do our best and may the best one win.
Don't forget about Kim, he is awfully competitive. And he wants her and the title of hero. And he won't stop at anything. We need to be careful. Dan thinks and we all nod. He is true. That Kim guy seemed awfully determined. I don't like him.
Hope he doesn't do anything foolish. None of us should get hurt during this competition. It's for fun mostly and should not be taken that seriously.
