Three Tales

The awakening

Moon woke up on a pile of stuff in what appeared to be an ally way. It looked odd for it to be garbage but its definitely garbage indicated by its odour. Her body was aching as if she fell from the fifth floor of a building. She stud up and looked around, the place is unfamiliar to her and from a far she heard noise. Turning around, up ahead she saw a bright light as if walking toward the open door from your dark room. Five minutes had passed since she waked up to this unfamiliar place and walked out the alley. She was surprised from the things she had saw a minute ago after leaving the ally way. The surroundings was strange and advanced like sleeping for hundreds of years and waking up to a future where cars hovered from the ground and streets made out of glass like material with three substances of different colors was flowing under it. She has no idea where she is and how she got here but ones thing for sure, she does not belong in this time nor place. She noticed that there was a lot of people wearing some kind of uniform and that those people has been staring at her as if she didn’t fit in. She ignored them and started walking. As she walked she felt somewhat tired. Little by little her feet became tired and her eye lids became heavy feeling as if she was about to pass out. She herd someone shouting from a far. She was about to fall when suddenly, someone catches her. She opened her eyes to see a handsome looking fellow. “Are you alright? You look like shit sweetie. Ah, you must be new here. I’m sorry, I almost forgot to introduce myself. My name’s Ruffus but you my drear can call me Rue.” He greeted with a sweet smile. Moon is at a lost of words wondering if Ruffus was a guy or just plane gay but she had no time for that nonsense. She knew Ruffus can help her find an answer to whats going on. “Thank you Ruffus… ummm, can I ask if you know who’s in charge of this place?” She asked trying not to sound suspicious. “Sure sweetie, you are after all new here so might as well show you around the campus and bring you to meet our seniors here. Well, follow me please I’ll bring you to see the student council.” Ruffus replied walking, back turned.Moon followed behind Ruffus feeling sceptical. “I haven’t really ask yet but what’s your name sweetie?” Ruffus asked not looking back while continuously walking. “ Moon.” She replied. “What a lovely name.” This time looking back at moon peaking at his side. On the way to this so called office, both was silent. The more they walked, less people she saw. Now, she was even more questioning if he could trust this Ruffus guy. After a wile, Ruffus stoped dead on his track. “ Your here, this is as far as I’ll go. I cant go with you inside. Well, bye sweetie.” Ruffus said then pointed at a door after walking away waving goodbye. Moon waved back then turned to see the door. Moon entered the room. The room was like a meeting room. She sat on one of the chairs near the door. While waiting, she got time to think. The first thing that came to mind was where the heck she is and why she herself was acting as if she was from this place. “ The heck!? What am I doing here anyway…” a lot of thing running trough moons head the the door opened.

“You must be Stella.” The guy said pertaining to someone. Moon was confused at first since they were the only ones in the room. “Is he talking to me??? Well duh Moon your the only one here. Yeah Moon thank you for pointing out the obvious!”

“ I am the representative of year 8, Shihiro. Your request of seeing the school head master will not be granted. Well if you do not have any more questions, I would like to ask you to leave. This room will be in use.” Shihiro said while walking to the middle of the room and sat down. Moon stud up and walked to Shihiro and started to talk.

 

 

M: “ Excuse me? Shihiro is it? Umm I walked here for about I don’t know how long and your telling me my request got rejected by a representative?”

Moon was close to Shihiro at this point. Shihiro didn’t even looked at her.

S: “ I said you can leave now wile you sill can.”

Saying the last word wile standing up.

M: “ I heard you the first time.” Saying it with a sharp tone.

 

 

For the first time Shihiro looked back at Moon. His amber eyes pricing trough her. At first she was shocked. Moon didn’t had a good look at him from the start, and know they were having a staring contest! Moon was flustered by how handsome he was but she kept her composure. Shihiro out of nowhere suddenly had a gun and pointed it at Moon. “ The heck!? Where did that gun came from. It suddenly appeared out of thin air! Almost like magic… wait… weird place, weird people, advance tech… IT IS MAGIC! THAT EXPLAINS IT! SHITTTT IM DEAD!” Moon was sweating bullets but as Shihiro was about to pull the trigger, someone called him. His ear piece was ringing. Shihiro answerd the call still pointing the gun at Moon.    The room was silent. Moon was still in panic at the current situation. “ What the should I do!? I’ll just ask someone else in the higher ups on whare the heck I am.” Moon said to herself. Shihiro and Moon has been standing in stance since his phone rang, he was silent so moon thought the phone call was finished.

 

 

M: Uhhhhh… I will be uhhhg on my way then hehehe(nervous af)

S: …

 

 

Shihiro lets go of the gun, falling off his hands and suddenly vanishing before it hit the ground. He had a sour facial expression. He brushed off his hands then turned his back at her and started talking “ Sorry for my rudeness Stella. The school headmaster requested for you. Please follow me to see the school head master.” Looking back at moon after saying the last sentence. Moon was surprised and just agreed. “ What's the deal with people making me follow them today. First waking up from an unfamiliar place then following a random guy and now this guy who was literally pointing a gun at my face! Uurrrggg… I just want to go home.”. After a few minutes of awkward silence Moon saw a massive door up ahead. “ Are we going to enter that!? Ohh hell no! That door is massive.”. After reaching the massive door Shihiro stoped and stepped aside. “We’re here.” Shihiro said with a cold tune of voice, stepping aside. The the door opened.

New student

The moment Moon entered the room, the door swung shut and vanished. Moon looked around the room. There was a man sitting at the end centre of  the room. His hands was clasped together, eyes closed yet seem to know that Moon was there. The man is well dressed, old yet handsome for his years. Hi was not talking and seemed to be in deep thought so Moon looked around.  The room was big, the floor was covered in what seems to be red carpet, a huge projector like screen that was translucent, and a chandelier made out of little orb like shining white light  and a cabinet full of awards and trophies that are made of  a diamond look a like object but at this point even Moon was not sure, for all she have witnessed today it is very likely it’s made out of the real deal. “ Is this place really a school!? Whats with this office!? This room is bigger than two rooms in our house combined.” Moon thought.

“Eheem… “

Moon looked at his direction. Her eyes met with two cold faint amber eyes. The old man spoke…

 

 

“ Young noble miss, what brings you here to our fine institution? You look quite different from the last time we’ve met. You seem to have changed your look. It must be hard for you to maintain this form for you to change this much. It seem to be that you ran away from home again? Or have you finally accepted my offer?” The school master said. After hearing this, Moon was more confused. “This old man know the owner of this body? And whats this about me running away from home!?”

 

 

M: “Uhummm actually, Im just here to ask if you know who I am, where I am and how did I got here.”

School master : “…”

M: “ If you don’t know then I’ll be off now.”

After hiring this, the school master suddenly smiled as if he knew exactly what was happening. “This girl seems to be… what ever the case, she has potential. Controlling magic to change once heir color is… this is quit interesting. I must grab the chance!” The school master thought to himself.

SM: “ … AaaAahh Im sorry. I must have mistaken you. You are Stella and a student of this institution. You are the one that I granted a scholarship so don’t worry. As for a place to stay, I got you covered. You will live in the schools dormitory. You will be a scholar of this school till I say so otherwise… You can now be dismissed.”

 

 

Moon was shocked with the old mans sudden change of attitude. It is very suspicious indeed but she cant put her finger on it. As she was about to accept this new information, Moon suddenly realized a hole in what the school master had just said. “Wait! When did I became a student of this school!? The people here doesn’t even know me SO how come!?!? Even the representative outside seen to disagree to what you’ve just said!!” Moon said with a slightly higher tone than average. There was a long pause, the school master grind at her as if he was expecting her to ask such question. The school master picked up the phone. “ Shihiro, pleas show our new student where she’ll be staying and conduct a meeting regarding this new … ordeal. I would not want to hear anything regarding this matter till all of this is fully settled and in order.” The school master said to the person on the line. After putting down the phone, the door suddenly re-appeared. Shihiro walked towards Moon and grabbed her hand and started to pull her out of the room. Moon tried to resist but she was too weak to do anything. Before fully leaving the room Moon shouted to the School master. “You didn’t answer my question!!! When did I became a student at this school!?”. The School master stud up and turned his back at her to look out the window. As the door closed the school master spoke once more for the last time “Just now.” And the door closed.

Let's see what you've got.

As soon as the door closed, Shihiro let go of Moons hand. He faced her and pushed her to the wall. He held Moon to her neck and gipped tightly. With a sharp and cold tone Shihiro spoke “Who… the… hell.. are.. you!?”. Moon was shocked, she tried to escape from Shihiros grip but she has no energy. She felt as if the energy in hey body was slowly slipping away. Moon wanted to speak but cant since Shihiro is technically strangling her to death! Shihiro has a dark look in his face. A face of a man that was about to… Moon was terrified, her grip loosen on Shihiro, Moon gasped. In a flash, Shihiro snapped out of it and lets go of his grip on Moon. Moon fell to the floor and was gasping for air. Shihiro cleared his throat while fixing his sleeves. “Follow me.” Shihiro said. “Is this guy out of his god damn mind!? What the actual fudge!(╬ಠ益ಠ)“

M: “ YOU SIR ARE OUT OF YOU GOD DAMN MIND! DO YOU REALLY THINK I’LL FOLLOW YOU AFTER WHAT YOU JUST DID TO ME! YOU FRICKING RETARD! I’ll k-“

S: “Sorry. I got carried away. I was being cautious since it is the first time that I am seeing you. The second reason is, you are the first person in a long time to have a scholarship and the last person who had one made quite a name for themselves.”

 

 

Moon can see the sincerity in his eyes, “Maybe he’s telling the truth? He’s lucky that he’s good looking, otherwise I would have wooped his ass up. Well not at the moment but I’ll definitely get revenge.( •̀ω•́ )” 

 

 

Moon gave Shihiro a look that says sigh fine I’ll let it go just this one time. Then she nodded. Moon was about to stand up but failed. Shihiro looked at Moon and felt a little guilty so he offered to help moon stand up. Moon accepted his hand and tried to stand again. This time she succeeded but as soon as she stood up, she felt light headed and fainted. Shihiro still holding her hands was in shock. "Did I really went that far? A high level elemental like her who was praised and recognised by the school master should have withstand a mere chock hold.” Shihiro thought. Shihiro lifted Moon in to a princess carry. Moon was awfully light for a girl her age. Shihiro lifted Moon to the infirmary. Through the way there, Shihiro observed the girl in his arms, black long hair, pail complexion, long eye lashes, and looked as if she was living poorly throughout her life. Moon looked and acted as if she was a weakling. "Is she really..."* Shihiro thought.

 

 

When they arrived at the infirmary the school healer was already there, Shihiro gently put Moon on the bed. The doctor asked for him to leave the room and wait outside, so he did.

 

 

Shihiro stud outside the room as the doctor said. Shihiro pressed his ear pice and called the other representatives of each grade level and asked for a meeting. He said that they had a “situation” that needed to be handled. He talked with a professional tone as if he was talking to his colleague. Time passed, it was taking a long time for the doctor to check on Moon so he desided to leave because he had more important things to do. Shihiro asked the doctor to call him as soon as the girl wakes up then left. Shihiro prepared the place where Moon was going to stay. He arranged the classes that she’ll be attending and prepared a uniform set for her to wear. It took him about 4 hours to finish his task before the doctor called him. As soon as the doctor called him he went strait to Moons room.

 

 

When he entered, he saw a girl with Persian red hair. Looking through the window. The girl turned her head and met Shihiro’s eyes. The girl had red eyes that matched her Persian red heir, with creamy skin and rosy cheeks. The girl seem to be glad to see him. Shihiro at that moment was confused. Then someone puts their hand on Shihiro’s shoulder, it was the doctor. “I’m glad that you brought Miss Stella here in time.” The doctor said.

Shihiro: “ I’m sorry, you must be mistaken Dr. Hira. She’s not the person I brought here.”

The doctor chuckled. “There seems to be a miss communication between this two” the doctor thought.

Dr. Hira: “ She is the same person.”

 

 

Shihiro was shocked to hear this. He looked at the girl sitting on the bed and Moon looked back at him. He thought that how is it possible for this beauty to be the same girl as before. The doctor continued.

 

 

Dr. Hira: “ Let me explain. From the moment you met her, she was suppressing her magic supply in the body. That meant that simple functions such as eye, hair, and skin color will change color. Without magic our body returns to its purest form. What you saw before was her purest form. We see this particularly to people who passes away. When we die, magic slowly exits our body and in time we change appearance. In her case, she just controlled the distribution of magic in her body to change her appearance. Magic never left her body, it was just suppressed.”

 

 

Shihiro: “ It’s the first time that I’m hearing of this.”

 

 

Dr. Hira “ Well, it’s not impossible. I heard very few cases , I don’t blame you if you didn’t know. I had worked with a similar case so I was able to replenish her magic supply.”

 

 

Both Moon and Shihiro looking at the doctor absorbing all that she said. Both having different thought process. Moon was thinking that the owner of the body is very capable to be able to do what the doctor just said. Both of them thought the same but Shihiro took this information to another level.

 

 

Dr. Hira: “ Well, if you have any other question, I’ll leave you two alone.”

 

 

Moon felt like she was understanding this world little by little. It was the same as the anime she watches were the people was ninjas and used chakra. There is a concept of magic where she came from and it looked like it had the same principles. The only thing different from where she came from and here is the fact that magic is not make believe and actually part of reality. Moon looked at Shihiro, he was standing still, not moving since Dr. Hira walked out the door. Shihiro, without saying anything, moved  on the foot side of the bed and faced Moon…

 

 

Shihiro whispered.. “ Let’s see what you’ve got.”. Shihiro suddenly summons his gun then aimed it at her forehead. It was so quick that Moon had no time to react.
