The sun is at its peaked when flocked of birds fly over a figure resting peacefully in the clearing within the vicinity of Clarkston Academy. She lifted her hand to block the brightness of the sun touching her face. When she decided to go back to school her ebony black colored hair reaching her shoulder is dancing when the sudden wind blows. She manage to closed her eyes shielding it to the dust and bits of grass coming from the sudden blow.
As she open her doll-like scarlet eyes. She saw her bestfriend who is a wind user Bree. "I knew that you were here", Bree released a heavy sigh as she found her,"-do you know what trouble I gone through when you always skip your class", she continued but her bestfriend was still silent looking as far as possible at clearing, "Lyra! Do you heared what I've said?", she demand. But still no answer coming from Lyra.
"I'm just wondering, what would it be like to be the outside of this academy?", she suddenly said. But Bree just pushed Lyra to the direction of the campus. " Enough of that, I know that you really don't remember the days you spent when your still outside since you are just four at that time. But please consider it as a gift since you have a dangerous type of ability! Remember when your first day? You uncontrollably released your miasma coming from the pit of hell?", she blabber while Lyra rolled her eyes from her bestfriend. "Don't you roll your eyes on me!!"
But Lyra started to run and start jumping like a child and tease Bree. They start chasing each others while ended up at the guidance office. "Your already nineteen but you two still playing like a three years old child!", a man in its mid thirties scold the two young lady, he has an average features but his dirty blonde messy styled hair make him a boy next door aura. "And you Lyra! Proffesor Shawn said that you skip his class again. Do you know that it is for you that you learn thoroughly how to control your ability.", he sighed," I know that your a prodigy but still you need to finished your study first before you get the pass to go the outside world. We still prepering you incase something might happen to you outside so please behave for a while.", he finished their conversation with a solemn tone.
The two ladies went to the cafeteria since its already lunchbreak. Eyes darted to their direction as they entered the cafeteria. Lyra ignore them like she is used to it but,"How do you?", Bree try to question about it to Lyra but she noticed that it doesn't matter to her. After they get what they want on the menu they sit on the west side of the cafeteria where there is only a few student.
"Lyra, can I ask you something?", Bree is somewhat hesitant to ask about the times when Lyra disappear in the middle of the night and coming back before dawn. "Yes what is it?", Lyra said while waiting for Bree's question as she munched on the beef curry.
Lyra is a silent type of person an introvert in so many ways but whenever she is alone with Bree she can be happy. They shared secrets that nobody can't believe.
" No nothing just forget about it", Bree just smile and mind her luch and munch it. While Lyra stare at her bestfriend and raised his eyebrow. They were distracted when a ringing sound rang on the direction of Lyra. " Sorry but I think its time for me to go", Lyra apologized while leaving Bree alone at the corner.
Releasing a heavy sighed a young male within their age seated in the empty chair where Lyra seated a while ago. Bree stare at the male infront of her. "Cyruz, what do you want now?", she raised her right brow to intimidate the man infront of her. Cyruz lean at the table to be closer to Bree while he whisper, "Why do you not asked her about it?", he asked Bree.
" And why should I? It is her private matters. I should avoid sticking my nose at her matters. And beside you should too!!", Bree shout at Cyrus while hitting him in his head. "OUCH".
Lyra walks at the dim lighted hallways to the Headmaster office. Before she enter the premises of the building she make sure that no one sees her enter. At the cafeteria she received a message thru her phone saying..
"Meet me"
She sighed...
She thought that she will be leaved for one month but here she is walking to the hallway to the Headmasters Office. As she silently walking to.. She felt that she is being followed. Then a shadow from behind her carefully making its way near her. Lyra grab tge first thing she saw to be her weapon. She swayed the long handle of the broom skillfully to the way of the shadow. But it was blocked.
" Is this how you greet me? Your father?", a long blue haired guy making a face teary while blocking the broom with his right hand approached Lyra.
" Adoptive father rather", Lyra sheepishly answered then her lips curl upward a little but she manage to be neutral. " Headmaster Ryland. You know that I can kill you right away even with this right?", Lyra then put down the broom from where she get it. Then they walk towards the door of the office.
As they entered the room. Headmaster Ryland walk thru the mini library to the corner of the office then pull the darkess book from the shelf. Then a secret passage open itself. They both entered it darkness greeted them but as they walk thru it the light in the wall lit itself. They reached the end of it and Lyra sit on the couch in the left side of the small room. While Headmaster Ryland walk to the center table and push the button on the side of table. Its like the room flip itself and bring out the things hidden behind the walls.
Now a 55" screen is on the wall infront of them while a shelf full of weaponry on the other part of the wall is being diplayed. " I thought you said that I will be free till next month?", Lyra asked while paying no attention to his adoptive father but to a dagger.
" And I also. But the council is needed your expertise", Ryland explained but Lyra is still not convinced. " Actually I am apologizing for everything. You don't need to do any of this Lyra. As you father I want to forbid you to do this", Ryland kneel infront of Lyra then cupped her both hand. Tracing the scars marked to her beautiful hands. Lyra remained silent.
" I can convinced the council to find another to do this." he continue but Lyra gently shake her head from left to right. "Like I told you, I'm doing this to find the perpetrator. And beside my ability is the right kind for this kind of doing. And don't worry I am trained for this.", she answered and stand and grab the white envelope with the council seal on it and as she planning on leaving her father embraced her. "Be safe. And come home."
