He turned off the tap before tying his hair into a bun which shows his two small fringes on each side. Hunter looked at his reflection in the mirror, it had a fairly long, yet rounded face, just like he had, teal green eyes, like he had, with tanned skin, like he had and wore a smirk, whereas he did not.
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6uPbHWRjjs
"Don't panic," the reflection said with the same husky voice he had, "... Is the messy man-bun necessary?"
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH9btYNohfe
"Where did you come from?" Hunter whisper shouts
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPzhyj9fCt6
"Ah, I forgot you don't remember."
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvN7Fdl9NlR
Hunter looked troubled, "Remember what?" He asked confused.
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ491GfJ4l3C
"You visited my realm the other day right?"
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTm4W9V0a0r
"No," Hunter shakes his head, "I've been in this school since I arrive here!" He claimed
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM3SvAtYy4c
The reflection rolled his eyes, "The place with the dark, endless space."
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwrDY5BmePk
Hunter stopped for a second, "oh,"
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgoqyXaQLTa
"Yes," the man in the mirror said with a small smile, "Back then, you and I made a deal,"
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzTEqb1Gkkz
"What deal?"
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnhe5zDYBg6
"If I wanted you to know you would have remembered our conversation back then," he stated.
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq02rrJE3l8
"So you're a demon? I learned about your order yesterday, you make deals with people and take shelter in their minds."
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxd2KvJDbXw
"I must say, you're taking this incredibly well," the demon noted,
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbLWQt1odMF
"What else can I do? What I don't understand is why I would agree to your proposal back then,"
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkvkvjHj6mf
"All would be revealed with time," the demon stated
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOcV3Z9pW0L
"Why do you look like me? Most of the demons I've seen are, no offense, foul looking,"
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB6BdCypYLT
The demon nodded, "if you're talking about the things you normally exorcise those aren't demons, they are called darklings. Also, I'm not a pure demon --"
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxOFifGMrsN
"A witch then, tampered with chaos or black magic and degenerated into a demon,"
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJHOEl6oJwX
"Close but let's go with that. You see, I'm your ancestor and I looked like this when I was your age ... Without the bun, of course, I wore my hair down." The demon explained, "I'm surprised by how much you've learned about mysticism since your arrival here,"
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1h47DXWFEq
"I've been spending a lot of my time in the library."
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRsNau9EHOF
"I know, I've been inside you all this time remember?"
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6GI3XD8LFk
"Yeah, if what you're saying is right then we made our deal three days ago, why did you choose today to reveal yourself to me?"
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQGPRThhMdk
"I've been going through your memories, I needed to learn more about you."
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡltLHjiLoHf
"Going through my -- can you not do that?!"
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ZrdU0JfTc
The demon shrugged, "You should start preparing for class, you don't want to be late."

"Well well well, look who it is ..." A voice from distant taunted
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjRzATsCMvd
"Move out of my way Benson," a crisp, low, feminine voice replied
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZvJwhAdmv9
'Someone's getting bullied,' Hunter thought as he ran over to where he was hearing the voice from.
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJeTOo1l6qG
Two muscular men stood over a shorter girl with a third person between both men, he was taller than them both. He had very defined, heavily muscular and light skin, his eyebrows furrowed as he stared at the girl with nothing but anger and disgust, 'that must be Benson,' Hunter thought.
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKioymjfIeE
"You heard the lady, move out of her way," he stated as he walked up behind her.
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡinuCCDNhI8
"I see how it is," Benson laughs, "you won't always have your slave to protect you," he said before walking away with his friends.
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv6XhtgPBCJ
Once they were out of sight, Hunter turned to look at the girl, it was the same girl that was staring at him on his first day, "thanks," she said with a sight smile, "I would have handled it myself though," she noted.
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvZsoe9vJBZ
"I don't doubt it."
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJfMGIuRNSP
"I'm being serious, Benson is only a beta and the other two are pack warriors, I'm an alpha, I would have taken them out," she stated matter-of-factly.
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPj2UoiA3Ul
"Wait, you're an alpha? Aren't you too young?"
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmFvGKUuEyE
"It's not about my age, I am the strongest wolf in my pack."
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjpRjCFKyAO
Hunter nods thoughtfully, "but can't you like control him or something? He is your beta."
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAuguHesxAn
She shakes her head, "He's from a different pack," she explained
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgyXrvQFX3N
"Then why does he acts that way towards you if the two of you aren't even in the same pack?" Hunter asked
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6B3lPDSZ8S
"You'd do the same if you found out I was going to kill everything you are." She replied with a sad smile
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr644teKOeT
"Huh?" He said confused
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ787zi01mR3
"I am fated to become the most powerful werewolf in the world, kill the moon, plunge the world into darkness and thus destroy every werewolf," she explained.
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9RfuEHCCYe
"Wow, that's ... Wow," he looked around, "why were you in my class then? You're aren't a sorcerer."
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlReom8vCxd
She shrugged, "Wanted to learn more about your class."
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX9WfMwX3wO
Hunter raised an eyebrow, "I'm sorry, I find that hard to believe."
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPzhlTfJbhZ
"I don't know, I just felt I needed to be in your class back then."
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCr5j68HkPp
"Interesting," Hunter noted, "I'm Hunter but I guess you already knew that," he said, extending his hand.
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSNg9xsBFT1
She shakes his hand before speaking, "Sydney." She replied, "We have to hurry to the assembly, we're late."

"As mentioned yesterday," the teacher began, "You will be going on a study tour starting today. You will be divided into a group with four students each. Keep in mind your performance is being monitored. The teams have already been posted on the notice board, find out what team you're on, meet with your teammates, and head for the parking lot, you would be given further instructions there."
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNuvTSomRug
Hunter and Sydney walk to the notice board, his eyes scanning over the board as he searches for his name which he found just below the name Sydney Swan, "Guess we're in the same team," She said
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxslLGvNEzR
"Yes, yes we are." He smiled
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtsXGLvq1lW
"Excuse me," another student interjected, he was a pale-skinned young man of average height with neck-length messy brown hair and brown eyes. He wore the school's standard male uniform consisting of a dark green blazer with brown trim that lines the cuffs and collar, he had on a white button-up shirt underneath and a brown tie. As well as a pair of dark green trousers with brown loafers.
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlw47fS92id
"Are you Sydney Swan?" He asked.
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡldH5gfR6Xg
"Yes."
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfh9lQOer0D
"I'm Martin Clay, your teammate."
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCw7pDBOGXu
"It's nice to meet you, Martin," Hunter said.
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKWzpsANsNe
"You must be Hunter," he observed, "I guess that means there's just one of us left."
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgW62SfEIVe
"Yes," Hunter checked the board, "They go by the name ... Zoe LeClaire,"
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAf4gtowMLD
"That would be me," A tall slender young woman with short, shaggy black hair parted down the middle said. She had deeply intimidating gray eyes and freckles on her cheeks. Her hair was kept in a low ponytail with a brown tie. She had on a white button-down shirt whose buttons were undone at the top and the sleeves rolled up with a dark green sleeveless sweater over it. She wore a mid-thigh long skirt with frilly stockings.
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkREaH7IGDS
"Let's get going," She said flatly, already on her way to the parking lot.
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb70YxGIUtO
...
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQ9hqM74RC
A while later, they were already in their bus driving through the city, "The Metropolitan city is so beautiful," Hunter gushed.
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyAAmdmKzax
"You've never been around the city before?" Sydney asked
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWp7wDdVd2z
"No."
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK8sv7qlECo
"Me neither!" She smiled, "I've always dreamt of traveling around the city, maybe the two of us can go on an adventure sometime."
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU1kKUp4O4E
"Ohh, that would be nice!" Hunter agreed
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZYyBUAhcpo
"Need I remind you knuckleheads we are out here for school and not to have fun?" Zoe said,
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcNo72mLyvy
"That's harsh," Hunter frowned
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKzabcVzs0v
"Let's start over," Martin interjected, "With a full introduction," he added. "The name's Martin Clay, I'm 19 and a year 1 student. I belong to the order conjurer of the class sorcerer, I like the color green and I am allergic to nuts."
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmziTeWOysd
"My turn, my name is Sydney Swan, I'm 18 and also a year 1 student, I belong to the class shifter and order werewolf, I'm a vegan and ... I can't think of anything I hate."
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1nCvXdJiU8
"I'm Hunter Heffernan, 18, I belong to the order sprite of the class sorcerer, I like taking pictures and hate apples."
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu3fLUAUADu
"Hate apples?" Sydney asked
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDXCn32UKtk
"Yeah, they are overrated," he stated
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj0MmKyY3MO
"I don't think so," Martin disagreed
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡokKJNrZKoA
"How can you hate apples?" Sydney inquired, "it's one of the best fruit there is,"
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrlpTb9OjUk
"To each their own I guess."
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRKdyl2raut
The trio turn to Zoe waiting for her introduction but when she doesn't say anything, Martin spoke, "Zoe, it's your turn,"
323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6HlvlrORgd
She rolls her eyes, clearly not wanting to participate in whatever it was they were doing but sighed and began to speak, "listen closely cause I'm only going to say this once, I'm a fiend and clearly levels above you three combined. I am neither your friend nor your teammate as I have been placed in your group to be your guiding hand throughout this study tour, I expect you would treat me with nothing but the utmost respect I deserve."
