Asylum

Chapter 17: FOREST OF LUMIERE

Cleo

I am now at the main gate of the Academy waiting, it's already weekend Saturday. Time check 5:40, too early for our meeting time. I'm too afraid that he will really leave me even if I will just be late for a second, knowing him and how he see people around him as annoying tsk he won't even think twice of leaving.

So I choose to come ahead of time even though I'm still sleepy and continuously yawning. I will definitely let him see my determination in this task. But I keep drifting off to sleep while waiting.

"Your too early yet you are sleepy tsk. What's the use of being here if you are not even ready" A voice suddenly said that snaps me out of my sleepy state. There Alexter is now standing in front of me in his full glorious state. Standing there in his prince like suit, a pants and a hunter boots and a small animal skin bag hanging on his back. He seems like straight out from a medieval movie, I did not react for a full minute I feel my eyes are glued to him, he is just too gorgeous and he know's it. Too arrogant and smug to himself.

His right I'm not even ready compare to him. With this simple gray cotton sweater, a black jeans and a boots Ree lend me. Also a small sling bag hanging on my shoulders.

" What are you looking at? You still have a choice. You can still go back and crawl to your bed or if you are still determined move now this instance before I leave you here" He said nonchalant, and oh did I mention his a jerk?

I immediately move and stand straight "No I will come, I did not come here early just to go back. I will see through this." 

He look at me annoyed and start walking to the main gate. There a two Knights standing in there guarding.

When they notice us heading to the gate one of the Knight immediately ask "Where are you going this early of the morning kids? Plus heading outside of the academy"

Alexter get a paper from inside his bag and handed the paper to the knight.
"We have a permission to leave the academy to collect ingredients for a potion we are making" 

The knight read the writings on the paper for a minute "okay you may go"

The Knight opened the gate and we directly headed outside.

"Where are we going?" I ask Alexter as I followed him

He just ignored me and just continue walking. I curse him many times inside my head arg jerk!

He stops right in-front of the outside of the Academy then whistle three time. I look at him in confusion, What he is doing whistling there like crazy?

I was surprise when a very white horse with a spiraled horn in his forehead came running to our direction. A unicorn. This is the first time I see a horse, I just see them on tv's much more a horse with a horn. Is this for real?

Out of fear when it stops just inches in front of us, I immediately grab the suit of Alexter and hide behind his back.

He just turn to look at me in confusion and annoyed expression. Then it immediately turned into amusement, maybe he is mocking me for being a scaredy cat. I just glared at him

"This is Sammy, an Aurochs" he introduce the mythical animal while gently patting its head. I has long flowing mane that look so smooth and a long silky tail.

"A unicorn" I mumbled as I look at it and slowly step to completely face it.

Alexter frown " Its an Aurochs not a Unicorn. Unicorn does not exist here nor in any other dimension, A creature with a rainbow body? Tsk only you mortals could be able to imagined that kind of creature."
