Xoul Chronicles, Book 1: Revelations.

Chapter 13: What do you want to know?

It was tuesday. On the timetable, classes didn't normally hold till 12, so students could be found resting, training or even sleeping. For Zemon it was a chance to start reading the book he was punished to read.

He headed straight to the library. It was just a bit close to the Don's office. Passing the office he wondered what the Don would be doing at that moment. He remembered her words in their first meeting, making him a bit sad but shoved the memory in a corner of his mind as he moved on.

Opening the doors of the library, he saw students on tables sprawled across an open space divided by shelves of books. After asking the librarian on the location of the book, he went to the extreme end of the library were Xoul history books were kept . They were fewer students here.

He searched the shelves there for up to 20 minutes, not finding what he was looking for. Soon about to give up, he heared  a feminine voice say to him: "Is this what you're looking for?" 

He looked at where the voice was coming from, a table behind him sat Ejiro, holding a very large book with her glasses reflecting light, making her eyes unseen.

"Oh you're the girl from Wing A that got me in trouble." Zemon said sarcastically .

"Hmmmm... I would prefer it if you just call me the girl that got you in trouble." She replied, removing her glasses, cleaned it with a white handkerchief before putting it back on....... "Don't be part of this Wing A versus Wing B bullshit, you're new here you don't know much about it. And really I would prefer you call me Ejiro. "

"Well." Zemon started, advancing towards the table. "From the way I see it... It is your class captain Isong that's causing all the trouble."

"Isong is an idiot... All of Xolace know that for sure.. He has this obsession for rivalry and the likes."

Zemon noticed her blushing as she spoke, but didn't bother to ask why?

"Na wa for am o! " ( He's got problems.) Zemon concluded, eyeing the book Ejiro held: "Say, is that the book we're supposed to be reading?  Do you think there would be another copy laying some where around here?"

"No I don't think so." She replied. " But you can have this one. I have read this book three times over. " She said as passed it over to Zemon who took a sit.

"Wow!  Three whole times?.... You  are the nerd. No offence." Zemom exclaimed in surprise.

"Non taken. And I really am a nerd. I know everything they can probably let us know about this place, it's history and all. "

Zemon took interest in her words, he held his chin as he mumbled something unintelligible before adding "So you said.. I didn't know anything about the Wing A versus Wing B rivalry. Can you at least tell me what that is about? "

"Oh that... You see."  She started.  The rivalry of the two classes go way back to when Xolace was originally founded. And it was founded sometime in the 16th century in Alexandria Egypt, when two extremely powerful Xoul families known together as the wings of Horus merged. They merged together after a very destructive battle had ensued between them killing most of their best Xouls. It caused sorrow for both parties and that sorrow forged a new era for them. Where they would join together for the betterment of all Xouls and humanity at large. From then Xolace was realized. But they were still some aggressions on both sides so they created the two classes Wing A and Wing B, representing both families. The aggresions turned into rivalry between the two fractions, and that rivalry extends till today. "

"Wow! No be chais! " (That's something.)  Exclaimed Zemon.

"That's just the part of Xolace's history that they're be able to let out." Ejiro added. "There're a lot of secrets about this place  hidden for whatever reason, and I'm going to find out every last one of it. Like nobody knows the descendants of these two families , their identities are hidden. " She admitted frantically.
