The Mythical Warrior

Consilium a senioribus

She's still asleep in the school nurse office, the headmasters was inside with her and we wasn't allowed to come in. "Maybe she's some poor girl that been missing or come from a planet we never heard of" Ellie brainstormed, trying to figure out who the mystical girl was. "She seems to be in our age, but I never seen her before" she continued. Ellie, Kai and I sat right outside the building waiting for someone to come out. The rest of the guys had already gone back to the school and the rest of the witches walked around hoping to catch a glimpse of the strange girl.

"I don't know, she looks familiar. Someone from Gaudium maybe?" Kai said wondering to me. I shook my head, "I don't think so, but I agree, she looks familiar" I walked back and forth and tried to figure it out, but nothing came to my mind. The door to the balcony right above us opened up and the girl walked out, took some fresh air and looked over the school yard. 

Her eyes wandered the ground and stopped when she spotted us. I didn't know what I was doing but I gave her a little wave and she immediately walked back inside. "Smooth man" Kai mumbled behind me, I turned around and gave him a punch on his arm so he fell backwards. "She's scared you idiots. We don't know if this is the first time for her being around this many people or anything like that!" Ellie glared at us.

The time went and we didn't see her again after she was on the balcony, "Maybe we should go Derek? The sun will rise soon" Kai said and sat down beside me. "No, I need to know who she is. You can go I'm staying" I said and pulled my jacket closer to my body. "Then we stay with you!" Ellie said and with a movement of her fingers a floating fire appeared in front of us and it was warming. 

I watched the flames and remember the girl fight the beast, she was on fire, and she controlled it like it was another part of her body. No one could do that, not even the strongest witch. I watched the flames, thought about the fight and under a minute I fell asleep in the cold, waiting for the mysterious girl to come out.

"Dude, Dude wake up!" Kai was pushing me and I tried to wave him away. "You give me no other choice" Kai said desperately and gave me a kick. "I swear if you do that again I will..." I started yelling but stopped when I saw what Kai was pointing at. Arrhenius, Meirin and the girl was heading out on the school ground. "I see that my boys haven't got home yet. Is there something wrong with the floaters again Mr. Kai?" Arrhenius asked, but I knew that he knew why we were here.

"No sir, we just wanted to make sure that she was okay" Kai said and bowed to our headmaster. The girl who looked more cleaned up blushed but looked away from Kai. "Well isn't that nice!" Meirin started, "But she's fine and you boys need to go back to your school. The consult is on their way and I don't think it's a good idea that your father would see you here" she said and gave me a little wink. They were always warning me about when my father was approaching so I could be in the best behavior.

"Before you go. Child, this is Derek and Kai the ones who helped you inside after yesterday's event, boys this is..." Arrhenius was talking to the girl but she interrupted him. "I know who they are sir, if you don't mind I would like to go upstairs and check the wound the nurse was worried about" she said with a little bow towards Arrhenius. He looked shocked but nodded to her, Meirin followed her and our headmaster stayed with us. 

"Who is she sir?" I asked politely but desperate, "I don't think she like me to tell you actually from her sudden change of behavior. But the important thing is that she will be talking to the consult in a few hours" in a few hours? For how long was I asleep? I looked down at my watch, she was seven. "I missed lunch? Why didn't you wake me up?" I yelled out to Kai and punched him hard. "Hey! You're not the only one who missed it! And I missed breakfast, snack and pre-dinner!" he complained loudly. Ellie shook her head, "I don't know how you guys can stay so fit when you eat more than an elephant" she said and watched her boyfriend trying to even out the punches but I pushed him away.
