Cursed Wings

Chapter 6

As I enter the school, there are students coming in from all direction and I hear the bell ring and within seconds everyone is gone. Literally flying to their classes which are up.

"Sabrina how am I supposed to fly up there?" I ask kind of terrified , I have no control over my wings.

"Woah there tiger not so fast. We will take the elevator. There are two entrances to classes. There are Nealecs who injure their wing and can't fly so we have back up routes through the elevators." She explains to me.

She takes me to a locker and opens it and pulls out a paper , a small book and what seems like a lock and hands it to me.

"Thats a map of the school and those are rules and regulations and at the end is your schedule and locker number for the next 3 months and heres a lock , cause the ones they gave don't really work as well and they are very easy to pick."

"Thanks. But why did you do all this?" I ask her? as we walk toward the elevator and get in.

"Oh how silly of me. I forgot to tell you!. I am a member of the welcoming party here at Glimmering Heights. Every year when new Hybrids come to stay we help them out." She tells me with a proud smile on her face.

"That's amazing, but didn't you say that most hybrids have a dominant gene so doesn't that sort them into Nealyne or Aerodyne directly?" I ask?

"No. That's not how it works, everyone is given the chance and right to choose." She tells me looking bright and perky. How is she so happy in the morning.

"Thats fair." I say as we walk out of the elevator.

"What's your first class for today?" She asks me.

I look down and say "Magic history?" in a confused state.

She laughs at me.

"We don't learn mortal things Avril. Come on we have the same class." She tells me distracted and pulls my hands as we walk to our next class.

As we enter the class the teacher looks at us and nods as a silent come in.

"Good morning Mr. Evans this is Miss. Avril Herz, the new student" Sabrina tells the teacher.

"Oh yes, today's the day Miss. Herz is to join the class I completely forgot." He says shaking his head in a disappointing manner as if scolding himself.

"Well come on in and take your seats, girls." He says finally smiling.

There are three empty seats one is near the window and the other two are all the way to end. We must be the last to enter. We go to the last ones as they are together.

"Ms.Writh you will be seated next to Julian." Says the Mr.Evan looking down at the text in his hand.

Sabrina pouts and sits on the seat next to the window and I make my way to the top.

"So today we will be learning about the origin of pure magic. So turn to page 82." Says Mr.Evan while flipping the pages on his book too.

"Magic in our realm was not always there in abundance as we see today. It was actually a commit that had crashed between the 12 realms that created the magic we see in Nealyne today." As Mr.Evan was continuing the door bursts open and in comes a guy with his dark brown hair tousled as if it has been flown around in wind, his ice-cold blue eyes wild, his mouth set in a smirk.

"May I come in ?" He asks Mr.Evan.

"Marko! Mind explaining where you were?" Mr.E asks him.

"Sorry had to run here." He says with a hidden smile.

As soon as he says that someone bumps into him from behind. The girl slowly comes forward with bright red cheeks, big brown wide eye and equally messed blond hair as his.

"Sorry, Mr. Evan I was feeding Cece and got late." She says looking away towards the ground.

I assume Cece to be her dog and why would the magic history teacher know her dog?

"You guys really get on my nerves sometimes, go take your seats." Mr.E says and they both scramble at the feet and come my direction.

"You're in my seat." The girl whispers.

"I am sorry." I say and try to get up.

"Miss. Katie, you will be sitting on my desk as a punishment for being late to class.

"Not fair! Mark came late too." She exclaimed.

"Maro I will see in detention." Mr.E says.

"Great!" Marko says under his breath. He is seated next to me.

As Katie goes and sits on the desk Mr. E starts to explain how the commit that landed was very big and how later the area around it became an ocean and now the commit is known as an island name Riffelyn. And how most of the magic is from stones that came to be from that island.

Halfway through I felt someone staring at me. I turn to see that Marko was staring at me very disgusted? or was it anger I couldn't pinpoint it. But either way it was giving me the creeps.

I tried to ignore it but he was intent on staring and Mr.E was not even looking at what was goin on in class or if anyone was paying attention or not. Finally getting too annoyed at him I snapped.

"What?" I snapped at him?

"What?" He said equally as harsh or maybe more harsher.

"Why are you staring at me?" I ask him.

"Freaking Hybrids." He said while looking away. Whats his problem!

I ignore him and his remark and pay attention to Mr.E and he is teaching .

The bell ring as soon as I write down what the portion for the test will be conducted next week. As I gather my thing and get up Marko bumps into me and goes, making me drop all my things. What in the world is wrong with him.

I am not one to get bullied around so I go after him to talk some sense into but on the way Sabrina comes up to me.

"So how was the class? " She asks me excitedly. I try to look past and there is no sign of him.

"Yeah, it was great." I tell her while thinking I am not going spare him. I will talk to him the next time we meet.

"What's your next class?" Sabrina asks.

I look down at my schedule to check and it says Zoology.

"Zoology?" I said which made it sound more like a question.

"Ohh yeah it's where they teach you all about the creatures in Nealyne." She says and almost jumps in excitement.

"Well there different animals here" I ask her dumbfounded.

"Yeahh!" She says and pulls me toward Zoology I guess.
