Someone's P.O.V.

THE WIND BRUSHED UP her hair, softly caressing them. With a plain white T-Shirt, a denim black jeans and a simple flat shoes; it enhances her features which emphasizes simplicity. Seeing her makes my heart flutter. Ever since day one, I've set my eyes on her. She's something.... different. All I can do is to look at her from afar and nothing else. I am a coward and that makes me nothing special. I am just waiting for my chance and gather all my courage and face her.

Now I am all good to start off my day. Picking up my books beside me, I smiled and then turned my back and leave. What a nice day!

Trisha's P.O.V.

It has been a refreshingly morning so I decided to sit on a bench not far away from the shade of trees. My mind is not that erratic as it was last time. Thankfully, this moment helps, somehow. I looked at my wristwatch to check the time. It is an hour before the school bell rings, and it was at my advantage. My tummy growled saying that I should go and feed her. Uh, that silly worm in my stomach's been the boss of me now! Next time, I will go to the clinic and get rid of that pest. Oh well, I am not good at being a joker so I guess I will cross it out on my list of possible jobs. Phew! *wipes an imaginary sweat in my average forehead*

The door creaked as I entered our room. Trisha's still asleep and because I am hungry, I will just reheat our viand last night and eat it afterwards. There was this book which I stumbled upon the Library, frankly speaking, it was a bit old and I don't know if it could withstand another turn of its page next time.

The Lost Tale of Callous

It is said here that the Callous was an ideal place to stay. Despite the environment and its eerie feels, based on the residents that lives and lived there, they were actually fine about being there. Based on the book I am reading, the ruler there were so kind that no one in the kingdom rejects everything that they are proposing for the improvement of the place they are in. But like any other stories, some of the residents have doubt in the way they ruled because of this. 

What was the real motive behind all of this? Yes, they all know that within all those proposals came flying in their doorsteps, words and services of kindness and responsibility, there's a hidden motive behind those. Why would they be just that kind? I mean, with all those powers and resources, they could've just live off their lives luxuriously and not spend off their time doing charity works. Not that I am being pulled off into the dark side, but It is a trend nowadays, right? People with power tends to abuse it and somehow, manage to pull some evil scheme and greed takes over their system. I wonder what push them to that edge.

I looked at the digital clock on our wall and decided to close the book. I stretched a little bit and then go to our closet and scanned for some clothes that'll suit me this day. I am a simple human being trying to blend in this world that is not-so-new to me and with that, I might have to choose this simple T-Shirt and pants on the laundry basket near my bed and to be paired with simple sneakers. Alright, time to go!

Eternal silence covered the whole classroom before I step inside the room. I guess they're doing just fine, keeping their reputation soaring, keeping up with cads like any other students and moreover, they could not be some sort of bully, eh? But really, luck is on my side today because, I am not their subject for bullying. In a total of 50 persons inside this classroom, 3/5 of the students have a wealthy background. 

There's this a daughter and son/s of the Count, the Duchess to be in their homeland, a royalty in could be. Although, there is this of hierarchy in this classroom and the students, I am wondering where all did the princes and princesses go? I mean, in a kingdom, there should be at least one, right? Not unless, the present Kings and Queens could not conceive and there is the reason. There's this another scenario in which the royalties like them are separated from us- the lesser being in the hierarchy.

By the way, I remembered last night was a disaster! Remember the petunias' Trisha's been asking for me exchange of the info, or somewhat info-ish to her? Uhm, I accidentally forgot about that and she kind of...threw a tantrum at me. That was partly my fault though, but not the most of it, alright! It was that girl yesterday! I am not responsible for it! Seriously!

It seems that the time isn't ticking in this area because before I travelled to wonderland, It is still ten minutes before the opening of exact school hours and now, It is down to eight minutes. What a shame. I wish there's this person who has an ability to control the flow of time, may it be rewind or be on fast-forward. Or maybe, he can jump into a new era or a new timeline and mess with the flow of the events in the past! Oh, it would be sooooo exciting!

A teacher, maybe in her early twenties, came inside our room. She wears this black pants, white t-shirt and a sneaker when coming inside our room. In her hands, she clutches her coin purse which I assumed, came in trend several years ago and I can't help but to wonder why she is keeping things like that old purse. 

When she's in the front of our room, her back facing the white wall of this wind-tightened room, she then said in a very loud voice, "All of you! Stand up or taste the wrath of heavens!" me, being the oh-so-kind student, stands up but my classmates didn't. They stared at me like I did something awful (which I am pretty sure I did something like that) and continue minding their own businesses once again. I caught up the stare of our teacher and looked at her with that face you put on when you feel sorry for someone. 

"Miss Chase, come here in front," said the teacher whom I cannot comprehend on what's going in her mind. My seat's in pretty much of in the middle part, so I have to go through people which have their own businesses. They didn't even throw a look at me while I am passing by their seats and that was a relief. Most of them are inclined with fights and competition because It is in their nature.

"-and as for you, unwilling subjects, you're doomed." That is what our teacher said to the other students. Aside from that dead, icy and death defying voice of her, it feels that there is something lacking and I don't know what is it or why is it like that. Seconds later, it seems that the time stops and all I can see (because, unknowingly, my body just can't move but my eyeballs sure do) is that the visible wounds and slashes came out of my other classmates. Their clothes were torn and all I can see is blood spurting out from them. Teacher is so savage and at the same time, cool!

After a while, most of them were groaning from pain and I glanced at our teacher and she's grinning. "Isn't that awesomely nice for an introduction? Hello! I am Cea Solen, your teacher for the Combat and War Strategy. Nice to meet you all!" She smiled. 

"And as for you Miss Chase. A plus 15 for the next quiz! That's all for today class. See you next time!" she turned around and get the ball pen on the table, "By the way, make sure to research on what are the qualities of a good leader. Thank you again!" and that's how it ends. 

Well, they're searing in pain and I am not. That's their fault, you know, not mine. What an eventful day, indeed!
