(LOL, typo Devin. Besides, it's wasn't the vice president who said it so I guess we could both use glasses. ) "President, at about a quarter past six a spirit moved arrived. I'm sure you've seen the broken watchtower. The spirit has been transported to the headmaster who I think can take care of it." Rouge said. "And how did you manage that?" The president asked. Rouge looked around but Aster, Garnet and Misaki were gone. "Aster Lawrence helped." Rouge said nonchalantly. The president seemed to recognize the name and just nodded, much to the confusion of the rest of the people present. "He's apprentice to the person who wrote the award-winning thesis on potions last year." Jin revealed. "Also, what was Devin doing here?" "He's a student here." Jin seemed to shiver a bit. "I hope you didn't take the liberty of teaching him a lesson, Scarlet." "Why would I do that?" Noticing the boredom in Rouge's voice, Jin relaxed. "Alright, get yourself freshened up. My ball tells me this night is not over yet." Jin said. Rouge nodded and walked away. On the way to the dorm he met Garnet who had a sewing kit in her hand. She repeatedly tossed and caught the small box in her hand. "Do you know where Aster went?" Rouge asked. "Dunno. He gave me this and ran out somewhere in a hurry." Rouge didn't bother replying as he teleported to the front of his room's door and opened it. It was empty. Taking out a black full sleeved shirt and pants, he headed towards the bathroom. ===== Aster frowned, a plastic bag containing various candies dangling from his hand. His right hand was in mid-air, unable to knock at Misaki's door. Granted he had broken in the girls dorm, the faint sobbing he heard on the other side prevented him. When he couldn't hear the sound anymore, he plucked the courage and knocked. It was opened moments later by Misaki, whose stoic expression turned into surprise. "Hi. Can you come out?" he asked. Misaki held up a finger to tell him to wait a moment. She came out with her shoes on and closed the door. "Yes?" she asked. Aster sighed. He then held the sweets. "Here." he said. "Have candy." "Thanks, I guess. Is there anything else?" Misaki asked. "Eat." Aster said. He didn't know if she would continue to just stare at the walls in her room or actually eat, so he was going to make sure she did there and then. "Pardon?" "I said eat. Now. In front of me." "I'm not hungry." "No normal person would be. Do you want to talk about it, perhaps?" Aster asked. He proceeded to sit on the floor, his back against the wall next to the door. Misaki looked at him strangely when he patted his hand on the floor next to him but quietly sat down anyway. "Have you ever had Twix?" Aster said. Misaki was responding to him at least, so he kept the conversation going. "Yeah...." "Was it good?" "It was fine." "I didn't know what you liked, so I got all the different variety I could see in the cafeteria." Aster said. Misaki silently began to rummage through the stash Aster had brought, searching for something she would like to eat. Aster let out a sigh of relief. "Also, about what you said before, I've been practicing magic since I could walk so you don't have to worry about the spells I use. Wind affinity flows along with my blood, plus it's very easy to cancel, compared to other magic. What kind of magic do you like using?" Aster asked. ===== Rouge lay in bed, thinking when Aster would come back. A while ago he had received a very peculiar text message asking him about his fight with the spirit. Perhaps a student could have figured out what was going on, but why ask Rouge? if it was something to be told to the students it would be done timely, which is why no one asked him at least. At once he sat up, quickly dialing the president's number. "Hello?" Jin picked up. "Is Kavin next you?" "Your intuition is correct as always." Chills' familiar voice said. "How long has it been since the headmaster contacted you?" Rouge asked. "I spoke to him last three hours ago." Kavin said, taking the phone from Jin. "What do you want?" "Contact him immediately. If you can't get through, I believe you know what to do." Rouge said. Kavin disconnected without a word and tossed the phone to its owner. A few minutes later he came back. "Contact IUPAM. We've got a crisis on our hands." Jin heard him call out after a few minutes. International Union of Pure and Applied Magic. Jin readily dialed their secret emergency hotline, but the signal didn't go through. "It's not connecting!" Jin said. Kavin acted quickly, heading for Ruth Seeker. Had Stein arrived already?

Hasil karna. To achieve, get etc-

Unsettling. But life goes on.

Only those people get respect in this world Those who work harder.

I stuffed pistachios and cashews in my mouth before sipping the tea with the bolus.

Chocolate milk drink also available in powdered form. Also, experiment failed. The viscosity of the tea made it hard to taste.

The thing costs money and is useful. I created a combination of Milo and lemon grass tea. Wonder how it tastes with cashew nuts.

iPhone. I have one. But it's not mine Dx

Wohi log patay hain jahan mein izzat jo kartay hain mehnat ziyada. xD

True wealth is friendship. What would you do if you had only 2 hours but 50% syllabus for a exam left?

Wanna hear a secret?

Logo aap ko hindi bolne se aati hai us per behas karne se nahein :V

Probably because of me. :V

Not fanfiction, original fiction xP

When I'm finished with exams then I can. that will be by 24 Nov. No wait this After wednesday I have 5 days off. I can see hope. But not before I write. :V

(Thanks Mohovie~) "That's a nice idea!" Aster voice was slow like he had seen the statement once said on a TV show. It was for children, but he didn't know. "Oh by the way Mimori, the key point to that spell is keep your mana focused around you. It's an A-Rank spell, but variations can exist." He proceed to crouch down and waited for a while. Suddenly, he thrust his fist forward at shoulder length, but Misaki looked at the ground where there were two slanted lines in the soil. They started from behind Aster but the gap between them lessened as the reach the area under his hand where the would have met. They didn't join, but Aster connected the anyway, creating a curved V shape. "I see. But did you really have to taunt the spirit?" Misaki asked the question she was holding. "It was a fire spirit. Spirits are intelligent, and they can understand us. Depending on the element they have emotions. I remember that fire is anger while water is calmness." Aster explained. "Were you worried? I get carried away sometimes." Meanwhile, Rouge seemed have done discussing with Devin and was now negotiating with Syra. He glanced at Misaki and smiled encouragingly at her use of medical magic. "You're wrist is healed Komari. Can't you forgive him this time?" Rouge asked. Syra didn't agree and wanted to tell Ms. Seeker what Devin had done. , "He might be rough around the edges, but give him some time. I get the feeling he hasn't socialized with people like us for a long time." Rouge said, glancing briefly at Devin. Where the boy had questioned his leadership, Rouge had only said he had intended for Aster to follow and wouldn't be mental enough to involve normal students in. Or perhaps Davin was just annoyed at not being able to help, so Rouge snuck in a remark about Aster not being able to lift a pebble with magic. Rouge tried to focus on what the girl in front of him was saying but he yawned again, his eyes looking at something past Syra's shoulder. "Cute. Cuddly. Fluffy." Rouge chanted, closing his eyes. Syra looked confused and asked. "Who?" Rouge dramatically opened his and pointed at Syra like Edogawa Conan. "You. You have no proof." Rouge said. He turned to everyone and winked. Loki was way to eager to help. "Ah yes. Syra, be careful when going around the forest, you might break, say, a wrist or something." Johannes quipped. "Let's go back then." Rouge said, following the lead. He stepped close to Misaki. "Sorry for that. Komari wouldn't forgive him at all. Can you apologize to her for me? She won't talk to me for weeks and it's hard to find her when she's avoiding me." Rouge confided. Misaki felt that he was sincere, but his always smiling expression kept him a mystery. All people had masks and poker faces. Rouge always seemed to say what was on his mind without offense, and that's what people liked about him. Rouge was honest, and he knew Komari was as useful as Aster. But timing was important. He couldn't let anything happen to Komari beforehand. They ran into Ms. Seeker on the way out. Ruth was the only teacher on campus, but in light of what was happening, she had contacted the Student Council. "Where are the teachers?" Rouge asked. "They've been called by other institutes. It seems like the attack on Gretchen High wasn't expected. Besides, we have Kavin and me." Ruth said. "Teach, we in time?" A boy and a girl wearing the same sash Rouge was wearing ran up to them. Davin's eyes widened as he recognized the boy. "President!" Rouge, Johannes and Syra stood straight. The student council president simply waved his hand at them. He was about to address Ruth Seeker again but stopped when he looked at song. "Davin?" The president spoke. (Haha sorry for stealing all the action, but IRL has limited time for the whole plot. ^__^ so for newbies I think I created enough instances for you guys to write on. And I want everyone to give a single NPCs a try so I brought in the SC members. Go for it Ren-senpai! )

Even though I told her not to use spoiler boxes, I have disabled her signature. Blissful.

I wish I could get struck the will to write. :V and my drawing style isnt very original either xP

"Mana manipulation is all about concentration. I doubt a regular wind-user could use that spell though. Too much strain." Aster said. "By the way, I have a sewing kit in our room. I can lend it to you." Stars were evident in his eyes. (So now we need Senpai to sort out breaking Syra's wrist. :V why you do that? )

But you did draw them ^^ this isn't even in color anyway

Afraid not. This one is for Syra since she has no face and is not described.

"Loki," Rouge said, his tone revealing how tired he was. He was feeling dizzy from the amount of mana he had used. "Hey there V.P." Johannes chimed and stopped. Garnet wondered why, but it seemed like Rouge was able to send the prankster messages by looking. "This particular part of the forest had no magical properties while the earth is defective. You couldn't use earth magic if you wanted to." Rouge explained. "Thanks for the help. You did more than me." Aster commented to Garnet. He sent a glare to Davin, his fist clenched and looked to Rouge who nodded his head sideways. "Davin Song, correct? explain to me because a teacher will surely put this on your permanent record." Rouge concerned himself with Davin, still weary but he didn't let it show. Aster tried to approach Syra but she refused him and went to Misaki instead. He then went to Johannes and Garnet to converse for a while. "Hi!" He said somewhat nervously.

"Actually, I have a better idea." Instead of using Garnet's little trick, Aster considerably increased his mana. Rouge, who was busy drawing a circle and writing symbols in a deep part of the forest stopped at the surge of power. The spirit eased out of the mess it was it in like air, immediately heading for Aster. Rouge's eyes widened at the amount of magical energy he was sensing. There was a slight explosion with ripples in the air as the Aster vanished and reappeared a good distance from where everyone was standing, the spirit following after him. "That guy...!" Syra figured it out. Aster was able to break the sound barrier with his speed. His neat hair hovering upwards, Aster used smaller movements to dodge the spirit. Garnet was able to tackle it down, but as he was now, he had no chance of hitting it without getting his mana sucked. But it had left Rouge alone. That's what was important. Visible lightning crackling around his body, Aster activated the strongest wind spell he knew and dived straight for the spirit, his slipstream slashing everything in its wake. He wasn't exactly a team player, but the others would be fine if they kept out the way. The mana of the spirit distorted here and there due the burst of air but in the end it came back with a new flair for Aster had the mana it needed. Such mana. A worthy sacrifice to Gaia. Aster stood still like a statue at the voice piercing his mind and he involuntarily stepped back. Gaia. He knew the word. "Unfortunately not." The slightest provocation made the spirit lunge for him, revealing it's haughty nature. "Meh, Is that all?" Aster grinned, his eyes shining like he had found a new toy. "Looks like I was right." Rouge said, having finished the circle. He stood in the middle of it. "Playtime's over, bring it here Aster." There was another slight explosion and Aster was standing besides Rouge. "That was quick- holy hell!" Aster looked at where he was standing. That sealing circle had a six pointed star with three perfect circles around it's edges. There were many unknown symbols of another language and some difficult equations laid on the ground. Epsilion, magical language that only high level magicians practiced. Aster knew some of it, and wondered if Rouge needed any help with the activation. "Oh, what do you see?" Rouge asked, stepping in the center of the seal. "Time to be the bait." Aster forgot his question. "Hey, why are you asking me?" Aster inquired, the spirit now charging straight at them. "You're the bait." Aster said to the redhead. Rouge pouted. Both of them wanted to activate the circle. That was the cooler part. The position and timing had to be right, which is why one of them had to stand in the middle and draw the spirit. "No you're the bait." "No you're the bait." "No you're the bait." "No you're the bait." "No, I'm the bait." "No, I'm the bait!" "If you say so." It took Aster a moment to realize what Rouge did. "Dammit." Aster muttered before charging up. The spirit flew directly at him. Rouge clapped his hands, an unnecessary gesture but he liked Edward Elric, and slammed them on the ground. The ground lit up and Aster sidestepped just as the spirit grazed the side of his neck. Time seemed to stop as a bright light enveloped the forest, before it reduced gradually, revealing only Aster and Rouge. "I think that was too easy." Aster said. "Anti-climatic even." he added. "I didn't actually seal the spirit, I just sent in somewhere else." "WHAT?!" "Trust me, it's more fun to let the Headmaster take care of it." Rouge yawned. Aster stared in disbelief, his eye twitching.

No, he called me Al. :V
