I walk towards our University's cafeteria, counting the money in my wallet that my mom sent to me through my bank account. People were staring at me, whispering. I ignored them, despite the fact that such a simple act made me squirm. I had just gotten out of my all nighter training, and so I still had my suit on. The light fabric made me feel as if I was naked, but the suit tightens around my torso, reminding me that I am fully clothed.
I suddenly feel as if something is wrong, and I abruptly stop. My mind fleets to Sander. I don't know how, but I somehow knew he was in trouble. I turn around, letting my feet move on their own accord, guiding me. I took off on a jog, still unsure of what I was doing, until I heard someone whisper the word 'stuck' and 'dungeon'. I broke into a sprint at the mention of the two words.
The dungeon rarely opens! I don't think it ever does! How the hell could someone have gotten through that stone wall?
Sander's name spills from my lips as I run down the pathway back to the training area, which was not too far from the dungeon. I push past the other students, not caring if they tripped, or bumped against each other. There is someone else who could be in a much worse situation. I call for Sander as if he could hear me. I hope he can. I believe he can.
My throat becomes sore, and my heart beats faster from running as fast as I can. I catch a glimpse of the dungeon entrance, which was a huge stone wall that fit the huge frame at the foot of the mountain. I could see Arjun trying to bust down the stone wall, but no luck. Not even the strong guy made of muscle could bring the wall down.
I just continued to call for Sander, not thinking of the possiblity that Sander could be safe and sound, away from this mess.
Echo had her ear and hands to the wall, most probably trying to hear if someone was on the other side. Arjun stood beside her mimicking her position. "Kyle! Cobalt!" He yelled to the wall, "who else is in there?!"
I staggered, but I didn't stop. The moment I arrived, my foot gave up and I fell to the ground, but I didn't stop there. I watched as Sander listened to the other side, and my heart accelerated as I listened closely to her next words: "they say Jude and Sander are inside as well, but they're half passed out."
My breath hitched, and I immediately got up on my feet. I ignored everyone else, pressing my palms against the rough surface of the stone wall. "Sander! Can you hear me?! Sander!" I yell, my voice sounding hoarse.
I look around, everyone has failed, the strong students have failed as well. What more could I do if even the strongest have failed? My shoulders shake, fear engulfing me. What would happen to Sander and the others? The teachers aren't around.
Suddenly, a thought crossed my head. I studied the wall, moving to the side of of it, I pushed. Nothing. I pushed harder, still nothing. Without thinking, I yell, "tell them to move as far away from the wall as possible!" Then I turn around, running as far from the wall as I can without getting exhausted.
Energy, pressure, wind. This is what I need for this to work. I take control of the wind that surrounds us, making it swirl around me. Echo turns to me, and that's when I release the wind, directing it all to the space between the wall and the frame with just the right amount of force. I gather up energy from my surroundings, making it envelop my body, circulating in my veins. I then use it to swiftly sprint towards one side of the wall. Just as my palms touch the wall, I redirected all the energy into my fingers, and push.
The wind pressure had removed small forms of resistance from the space between the wall and the frame, making it easier for me to forcefully push against the stone wall. Dust forms around me, and I cough, covering my nose with one hand and waving away dust particles with the other. When I properly get a look at what I managed to do, I gasped. The wall had turned, creating a big enough opening on both sides of it. I rejoiced by running towards the group of four who were already moving towards the openings.
I make a beeline for Kyle, who had Sander leaning on him for support. "Sander!" I yell, relief flooding through me to see him.
He his head, looking for me in the dark, until his bright eyes finally land on me. They visibly brighten more as he pushes himself off of Kyle, and stumbles towards me, but I shake my head. With a flick of my finger, he's thrown back onto Kyle, just in time for them to get out through the opening. I walk out through the other opening, and meet Sander outside, who's eyes were searching for me.
Our eyes meet, and without a second thought, I ran. I ran towards him. He runs towards me as well, stumbling a little. When we finally meet in the middle, I couldn't help the spring in my step, causing myself to jump into his arms. Sander laughs, catching me mid-air and carrying me, almost stumbling backwards in the process.
I hug him tightly, my arms wrapped around his neck, while his arms were around my waist, face buried in my chest. We stayed like that for a while, embracing each other.
"You fucking scared me," I mutter.
"I'm sorry," he whispered.
"I love you," I say.
"I know. I love you too," he replies.

Whoopy doopy doo this was just what I dreamt of and I thought was really cute and wattpad worthy. I changed a few things since a lot of them don't make sense, and this is the output.
I hoped you liked it!
Btw if you're a little confused its like a medieval fantasy merged with the present time. So the characters had some kind of ability or smthin. The main character is a mage, and the others, well... i haven't really put much thought into it yet.
Might turn it into a story xp
XOXO,
Ceru
