《Eternity in the darkness》Chapter 12:Dodge ball- Part 1
Advertisement
It had been a week since I started attending my new school. Lizzy insisted me coming with her to school in the morning, due to our different schedules Augustus would pick me up after my class.
Today was a bright sunny day which I liked sitting in my classroom looking at the window. It was zoology class taught by Mrs. Patrick, who was in her forties. This class was considered a free class, she was a softie. Preston was different comparing to my old school I used to go with a variety of people.
Lizzy and the rest were nice to me. She and Bella had taken me to shop two days back. It was fun with them. I missed my best friends though. All the three of us were at different places. Jessi was in some French school, Rini was studying in Mary's and I was here. Classes were decent that I attended except for one Mr. Hall, my physics professor. I had his classes only three times a week. Nevertheless, unluckily I had it for my next hour today.
Mr. Hall was a vampire and a short-tempered one. No one was supposed to talk, turn, or even sneeze. He hated that humans attended this place. I still remember when I told him I was a transfer student that was definitely not my day. I could not change my schedule yet as all the classes were full. I enrolled my name in the sports department, as I had to pick a club activity. Lizzy had told she was in too so I took it.
"Assignment on the respiratory, page one hundred and three," Mrs. Simpson said giving us homework and continued talking about when to submit it.
I had taken a seat near the window and looked outside the class. The football ground was next to our building. It was the fourth hour for the day and there were people practicing already. My room was on the ground floor and it was easier to see. Girls were trying out the cheers. They were undoubtedly flexible that made me wonder if they had any bones in their body at all. Definitely not human.
The boys ran laps as the coach blew the whistle in his hand. They were agile and fast, I guess no human took part in sport looking at the speed they ran. I had second thoughts now about being in sports. One guy stood there not running, maybe he was the team captain. I saw Trent too who was running behind the team. I saw Kyle on the track running. He seemed energetic and laughing about something. I wondered was there any day where he was low.

One thing I noticed about all my friends here were they stuck together all the time and they were cool to hang around with. Not stuck up or something. Their identity was kept low of being part of the royal family, to avoid any unwanted attention and threat.
All the boys had come to halt after completing their laps. Kyle was talking to the captain and felt my gaze. Looking at me, he gave a wide smile and waved at me. I gave him a small smile from where I sat.
The captain who had his back turned around annoyed to look at who had interrupted their conversation. He had blonde streak hair and was quite handsome but not as handsome as someone I knew. He looked at me for a brief moment and then turning around to talk. The bell rang and I walked to my next class, which I dreaded. Getting in I took a seat as students filled in. Mr. Hall came in after few seconds not wasting a minute and spoke,
"Today we'll start with Equilibrium motion," he stated starting the class. I sat as stiff as a rock putting my utmost concentration as he taught us. The rest of the class went on just like that, he teaching and we listening. The class ended and students began to disperse.
"Ms. Whitlock, a word," Mr. Hall spoke while he sat at the desk sorting out papers.
"Yes," I told and went near the desk. By now, all the students were out leaving only the two of us in the class.
"Do you know what all are the portions that were covered until now?" he asked keeping his eyes on me. I nodded my head.
"Good you better be," he replied, "I won't hold back to give you an F if you can't score. You can leave," I gulped hearing this, was he threatening me. I went to the cafeteria searching for Lizzy and the group. They were already there sitting.
"Eve", said Bella patting the space next to her.
"Hey", I went and sat down next to her.
"You didn't listen to class today", Kyle said in an accusing tone.
"Really?" Lizzy asked me having the straw in her mouth and talking.

"It was Zoology," I defended myself, "she repeats everything twice."
"No worry hon," Lizzy said swooshing her hand in the air, "nobody listens to it."
"Still you weren't listening. Derek asked me who I was waving at?" Kyle said playing with his phone.
"What!?" both Bella and Lizzy asked simultaneously.
"Derek who?" I asked. Whom was he talking about?
"Derek our soccer captain," he said, "You know the tall blonde-".
"There are so many blonde guys here Kyle," Bella interjected, "let the girls describe."
"He's tall, athletic body, one of the hunks here," Lizzy described him, "an eye candy."
"Hey, Eli how would you describe me," Kyle asked eagerly.
"A dumb stupid empty brain-" Kyle put his hand over her mouth.
"That's mean," he pouted with a humph.
"Alright alright you're the cute little idiot, a glue-like Sid the sloth," she said to which we all laughed. They were like the Tom and Jerry pair who brightened up the day.
"Who's Sid?" Ashton asked wondering, guess he didn't watch animated movies. He was a nice guy but looked scary due to his built.
"The one who's sloppy in the Ice Age movie," I said to which he smiled cracking up slowly thinking about it.
"Hey I'm not sloppy, I'm hurt," Kyle said keeping a hand on his chest dramatically to which we all laughed. The character fits him perfectly.
"Eve, Bella and I will go submit our report. We'll see at the locker room okay?" Lizzy said getting up and swinging her side bag. We had sports and gym together, which had made me a little jittery.
We had sports and gym together which made me extremely happy when I realized it. Lizzy had insisted me to join sports.
"Yeah sure." I slurped my drink, listening to the people talk. Kyle and Ashton left having some work to do leaving both Louis and me on the table.
This was getting awkward as we sat in silence, me sipping quietly and he texting on his phone. We hardly spoke other than exchanging a smile.
"How are classes going on?" he asked me out of nowhere.
"It's good, the professors know the subject well. My previous place didn't have such kinds," I told him. Here the quality of education was crisp and refined; it did live up to its expectations. Louis smiled listening to this,
"That's good to know."
"How old are you?" I asked him.
"721 years," he replied, like it wasn't a big deal, "Is there any problems your encountering in any of the classes?" Well, all the classes were pretty except for that one class, "Yeah. I mean no problems."
"I would warn you to stay away from Megan, she's a little crazy you could say," he warned me looking past me. I turned behind to see the devil herself with other three girls around her. I turned back not wanting to have an eye contact.
"She thinks she's going to be the queen but of course there's no such thing going to happen. It was only due to her father's influence she got into a relationship with Ruka," he said.
"Can't Ruka do anything about it?" I asked him. Ruka had told me being his mate but then what was he doing with another girl.
"Not yet. With the current circumstances it's better this way no matter how much we dislike her," he sighed, "It's a good decoy and have people think that way for now. Once you turn eighteen the cover will be blown about you two, therefore, we have to make the most use of this time now. Just be wary when she's around."
"Okay," I said the bell going off, "I'll see you later." I started to move when he called me.
"And Eve..".
"Yeah?" I asked him turning back.
"Have a fun P.E," and he went in the other direction.

8 121Vylt: The New Dawn
Mankind finds a way to use magic, but this great power comes with a price. A transaction that can't be refunded. Nora Hayes is a simple girl whose only worry was graduating high school. That is, until she faces this new reality. How will she, her family, and her friends deal with the aftermath of such event? Currently revising all the existing chapters. New ones coming after that! _________________________________________________________________ Sneak Peek: Next to the kitchen, there was a small squared table and two wooden chairs, each made from different wood. The bookshelf behind those contained a decent amount of books. I stood up to take a closer look at them and even opened a few out of curiosity. While I could read most of them just fine, some of the oldest-looking books were written in a language I didn't recognize. "Hm? Was my hand always blue?" I didn't remember. In fact, I couldn't recall anything about myself, not even my name. Inspecting the rest of my body, I found that it was the same all over. I didn't feel sick; quite the opposite. Still, my blue skin felt out of place for some reason. Trying to find an answer to my situation, I kept investigating the odd room. _________________________________________________________________ Big thanks to Alice Griffin for helping me out with the cover.
