•Chaewon's POV•

After walking out of the office, I went back to my room. To be honest, I'm like the sweet and salty flavor. Why? Well, I have 2 personalities. Just imagine an angel and a demon in one body. That's me.

I'm usually nice especially to others but these royalties (heirs) gets on my nerve. They think that they own the school especially that princess Kim Minju just because their parents are the kings and queens.

To be honest, not all of them are bad. It's really just Minju, while the others, well, they are just pre cautious. Especially since the war is coming and spies are everywhere. So when a random girl with extraordinary powers shows up all of the sudden, it is suspicious.

I was notified that I would need to lag behind the heirs so they won't know I'll be with them. It'll be a bit hard since they have a much more higher sense than other students.

I packed some clothes and grabbed some food. I don't need to bring water since I can make them.

I walked out of the room still dark. It is currently 3:00 am and they're planning on to start at 2:30 so they already had a 30 minute lead. It's not hard to find them. It's just a matter of time.

•Minju's POV•

We are now at the Forest of Silence. No sound can be formed here. It is said that a powerful witch died in this forest and the people who killed her used sounds to torture her.

And now, whoever makes a sound will be killed by her. It is true though. Many have tried and it all ended up in the same results. They get their head blown off.

We snuck silently as possible until...

*crush*

We all looked at Wonyoung and surrounded her. Yena unnie, being an air attuned she hovered over Wonyoung. We waited and waited but nothing ever came, until we heard a clanging sound.

We heard her grunt then an explosion and eventually everything fell silent again. It looks like we're safe. Someone already took the fall.

We went towards to where we heard it but there was no body. Only blood. Blood everywhere.

We went our way again and once we got out, we finally breath out the air we've been holding onto for quite a while. We made sure no one was following us and proceeded to make our way to the River of Life and Death.

It's our last stop to get the first gem. We slept side by side because a creature might get us. We made sure that the youngest 5 which are Nako, Yuri, Hitomi, Yujin and Wonyoung are at the middle to make sure they're safe while Eunbi unnie took the first shift.

•Eunbi's POV•

I looked around and played with my powers for a bit while I guard these kids. I am the oldest making me responsible for them.

Honestly, I wasn't really sure about bringing the girl Kim Chaewon with us. She still needs to earn our trust before we get close to her.

But since Yuri and Chaeyeon are really friendly, also Sakura and Yena, they managed to get close with Chaewon. Chaewon is a nice girl but I still question her on who she really is and if she is a spy or something.

It's really odd. She shows up out of nowhere, she's really powerful and now, the HM wanted us to take her in this mission. For all I know she also wants to take the gems.

I haven't had a good conversation with her so maybe I'm over thinking this? Maybe. But I once she does something suspicious, or something that'll get us hurt? I will kill her personally.

"Wow, Minju is more powerful than you and I'm more powerful than her. How will you kill me?"

I jumped out of my place and looked to my side. "Kim Chaewon. What are you doing here? You are supposed to be back at the Academy. Didn't HM already told us that you won't be coming?"

"Chill unnie. Don't tell the others. But you can ask HM yourself. He said that I need to follow you girls since you might get hurt. Turns out he was right."

"What do you mean? No one is hurt."

"Really? So if I didn't kill the already dead witch, will Wonyoung still have her head intact?"

"Y-you did that?"

"Yes I did unnie. You don't know how powerful I am."

"Well, you really are powerful. No one can kill the witch. It'll probably quite the battle with all of us 11 against the witch but you handled her that easy?"

"Yep, I just needed to make her head go kaboom. Haha."

"Okay, please, no details."

"But, unnie. I need to talk to you. I came onto this mission because honestly, I don't want any of you getting hurt. I wanted to help. But HM and I both knew Minju would never approve."

"Yeah, she doesn't want to believe that you just took her place as number 1 most powerful at the Academy."

"I am sorry for that. But, I needed to tell you that you guys need to take the red bridge at the River of Life and Death."

"How do I know it won't kill us."

"You don't. You just need to trust me."

With that, she was gone. I guess I just need to trust her huh? Kim Chaewon... Why do I think I'm falling for you?
