Students in Newt Gingrich Academy are kinda dangerous. In fact, some of those 'well-disciplined' students are just faking it. They're kind for show. Even the council doesn't have an idea which of them are the dangerous ones. They're very tricky with their records. But somehow, they're not yet making their moves.
Not yet.
How did I know? I can feel it. Only students in NGA can be part of the council IF they have special abilities. What's mine? I can feel and know what/who are those dangerous pips. But as I've said, they're very, very tricky. I dont have any proof that they are dangerous but my instincts are powerful.
"Hey." Farah.
"Where have you been? I've been looking for you!"
"I just took care of some business" she said with a fake smile.
What kind of some business is that?
I just nodded in return. I know her. In situations like these, I know what to do. Keep my mouth shut because she doesn't like to talk about things much, plus the fake smile.
We started walking through the school grounds. We were both quiet, we just let our feet guide us wherever it will take us to. The school grounds were also quiet too, for the recess was done a few minutes ago,so I felt more uncomfortable.
I'm not used seeing her that quiet, that serious face, the resting bitch face, knowing her, she's jolly, noisy and never runs out of stories. I wonder what's gotten into her?
I almost forgot, Farah is also a part of the council. She has the abilities of water, fire, and wind. And she's strong too. I didn't even know how I got the higher position than her when the only ability I have is my instincts. Poor me.
I couldn't use my ability to her. She's so hard to read. Even though we're childhood bestfriends, I feel like I don't know anything about her.
I couldn't take the silence so I broke it.
"So, where are you going next?" I asked.
She slowly looked at me, "Home."
"But first, I'll drive you to your house" finally! the serious face was gone. But in her eyes, I can see fear.
I wonder why?
I have my own car and this is pretty unusual. And awkward.
"C'mon. I just want to stroll around the neighborhood near your street!" she said joyfully.
Mood swings? Maybe she's on her red flag. Hmm. So that explains the serious and bitch face?
But a part of me isn't agreeing with what I thought. Very good, instincts! Figure something else except for the red flag!!
"Uh. You can just follow my car if you want. You know, it's pretty awkward for you to drive me home when I have my own car." I said awkwardly.
"Oh. Okay!" she said with a big smile.
I got in my lamborghini. I started the engine and held the steering wheel and let out a deep sigh.
Honestly, this is the most awkward day ever.
While I was driving, I looked at the side mirror and saw Farah's car. She got those serious face again.
Our house is just a few blocks away from school so it just took fifteen minutes. So as Farah's. I really don't understand why she's doing this. If I will ask her, she will eventually not say that truth.
I parked in our garage and got out of the car. Farah just rolled her window down and nodded at me. I nodded back with a wide smile and waved at her. But it was too late. She already drove away.
I value and treasure friendship a lot. Those simple gestures means a lot to me already. And with her actions? It felt like hell.
"Mom! I'm home." I said lazily and went straight to my room. I didn't wait for her to reply and see me.
Geez, this was a tiring day. Before I could close my eyes, I saw mom entered my room and looked at me, like she pity me a lot.
Seriously, can this day be more awkward?

"AZALEA!!"
The loud shout of a woman made me went to reality again. I looked back and saw Farah running towards me, behind her, men with black cloaks were chasing her. Some with a large bazooka and some with lighting swords.
I couldn't move my body. I did everything I could, speak, shout, jump, anything. It was like I was just a soul.
We were outside our house, the neighborhood was so wrecked and destroyed. I can see many people with cloaks surrounding us. All eyes on me.
I looked around and saw unfamiliar people lying down on the ground with many bruises, I think some of them are dead already. They're covered with their own blood.
Farah was covered with blood too. I dont know what's happening around me. I dont understand why all of them was nearly dead and I'm still clean! Why am I not covered with bruises and blood too? Don't tell me I'm a villain!
Farah was breathing heavily. She couldn't come near me as If there was a big barrier between me and her.
"Azalea!" she shouted with all her strength.
"Please, don't go with them, I beg you! How about me, azalea? How about me, your best friend? How about your family?!"
I want to say something but I couldn't! Crap! What's happening?! Why do I feel like controlled by some machine?
"Hah. Dearie, whatever you do, Azalea is ours now. Accept the fact that we won now-" someone with a deep voice said. It's voice was scary. T'was full of authority.
"NO! To hell with that! I won't let anything happen to her! I won't let you get her!" farah said between her sobs.
"You know what? You're funny kid, you're just a rank 10 and you're weak! What can you do? Huh? You're just a piece of trash in your, wait, what do you call that again? Your silly organization? Nevermind, I don't care anyway. If you want, you can come with us, but oh! haha! I forgot, we.dont.accept.weak.ones." the man said again.
"Are you done?" farah replied in a bored tone.
"What?!" the man was literally pissed that he pointed his bazooka at Farah.
Farah was fast, by her wind ability, the wind blew off his bazooka but I think this man is a boy scout, he has another at his back. But as he was getting his another weapon, Farah was supposed to use her fire ability but this man was faster than her. He already used his power to Farah. I don't know what he did and why the impact was that powerful!
"You're hard-headed kid, I already told you to stop it and just accept it but what did you do? I told you, Azalea is ours now. She already agreed, right?"
I think this man was referring to me, I looked at him curiously and he just looked back with a cold stare.
I was about to disagree but I couldn't speak nor move. Suddenly, my mouth automatically said "Yes." I tried to stop my mouth from saying it but something is controlling me and I couldn't fight back to it. Every time I try to move, I feel like I'm being stabbed a million times, being electrified, shot by many guns and other extreme pains. All I can do is just cry.
Farah was shocked. She was speechless and looked at me blankly. While the man was smirking devilishly.
"Azalea, can't you remember why you're in the highest position? you're the asdfghjklcoabwodiwbsoahbs"
No! No! I didn't heard the last word she said. No! This can't be! I need to know-
***
"Azalea, thank God you woke up" I heard mom said.
