"Your arrival is very much anticipated."

Our arrival...is very much anticipated.

"Let us lead you to the Headmaster's office for your inquiries."

That's what Simon said as they led us to the right pathway. Naunang sumunod sila Merlia at ang iba. I was about to follow them when I felt a pair of cold eyes gazing at me from a far. I turned around but saw no one, only the empty pathway and the faraway trees.

"Ethan?" I turned to Shane when she called my name. "Are you okay?" her ears bend back involuntarily as her tail stay low. Shane, there's a lot of reasons to be not okay right now.

"I'm fine," I still reassured her and pat her head before following the others.

Weird.....pakiramdam ko talaga kanina may nakatingin sa akin.   

Sinundan namin ang dalawang estudyanteng nagpakilala bilang Simon and Sierra papunta sa Headmaster's office. On our way, di ko mapigilang mamangha sa napakagandang exterior ng mga building at pagkakalandscape ng buong lugar. Everything is so intricate and so majestic. Gaano katagal kaya tinayo itong school na 'to?

Seriously, Ethan? Yan ang iniisip mo sa panahong 'to?

I need to focus, damn it.

The pathway lead us to one of the buildings. We went in and everyone in the lobby were wearing red uniforms. They were coming in and out of the building, busy with all the paperworks they are holding. Well isn't this lively?

We went inside an elevetor and stopped on the third floor. We walked through the hallway and stopped in front of two huge dark brown doors.

Simon was the one who opened the door and it led to an office that only has the sunlight passing from the glass floor-to-ceiling door as its light.

The glass door leads to the balcony. And in front of the door is a desk with two sofa chairs in front of it and a swivel chair behind it. The desk were filled with unorganized sheets of paper and so is the coffee table between the two sofas. On the sides, there were shelves filled with books that were carelessly placed that it almost seems like the person who put it there doesn't know how to use a shelf. Everything is so unkempt. Not to mention, how the walls and the floors are cracking. There were even flowers and vines starting to grow from the cracks and crawling to the furniture. What a mess!

The swivel chair facing the glass door finally turned around yet we're still unable to see the person sitting in it as it is against the light.

"Headmaster Chaos, the transferees have arrived." Siera said. Transfere----wait, a damn minute...

The person stands up and walked around the desk then walked towards us. As soon as we were able to see his face, we were astonished.

A man with messy brown hair and fringe that almost reaches the tip of his nose. He looks like he's in his 20s but he wears an old-fashion brown coat that extends down to his ankle, a white long sleeve underneath with a bolo tie, a black vest, slacks and shoes. Above all that, his body is covered with bandages that peeks through his long sleeve and collar. The bandage covers up to his neck and his other eye. The ends of the bandage hang loose through his sleeve. And in the breast pocket of his coat is where the logo that we saw in the uniforms stitched and the same flower peeking out of his pocket.

The headmaster's mere appearance was enough to render us speechless.

He looks like he came straight out from an anime.
