《Cold Heart(Cancelled)》Chapter One: His Name Is Caden Dahil
Advertisement
The chatter in the bus continued all through the road trip, it was pretty full so everyone felt cramped wherever they sat or stand, but this didn't overwhelm a boy who was squashed between two businessmen, he had dark green hair down to his neck, stood 5'9 feet and had dull neon green eyes.
His name is Caden Dahil, he is aged 15.
Even though he was squashed to the point he could die, it didn't stop him watching landscapes pass every street from inside the window.
He watched buildings get distant, watched passengers on the bus start disappearing on each bus stop, this relaxed Caden as he sat down in the middle of two chairs located in the front of the bus near the door.
After some more of driving, a large tungsten material wall came into view, the bus eventually stopped midway of driving down this longwall.
Caden threw himself off the chairs and stepped outside the bus, stopping to the sight of a ten feet gate.
He glanced around when he noticed there wasn't anyone to be seen.
When he found nobody to be around, he made a risky move and pushed open the gate.
It made a loud creaking noise, loud enough to alarm the whole school that sat sixteen feet away from Caden.
It opened to a massive hallway of floating boards explaining certain types of subjects and rules.
Approaching the glass door revealed some more about the enormous school, it seemed like a whole mansion, two stairs from Caden's point of view circled each other, stopping at the second floor which had male and female toilets and two cafeterias.
Baffled from what he was seeing made him scared when he was greeted from a feminine voice, he snapped his head at the voice, figuring it out to be a female in a work outfit.

"Caden Dahil?" She asked.
"Y-Yes, I am Caden Dahil" Caden answered, replying nervously.
"Nice to meet you, I am Ms Pace, the headmaster of Greenfield Supernatural High" Ms Pace introduced, shaking Caden's hand in the meantime.
Ms Pace toured Caden through a long hallway, the further they walked down the hallway, the more it became quieter and darker.
Then they addressed a corner where the light shone through, they swivelled the corner and there waited sixteen football length rooms.
"What's all this for?" Caden pleaded, covering his eyes from the burning light.
"This is the testing room where mutant students come and test out their powers" Ms Pace responded, pointing at a hand scan in the middle of all these sixteen rooms "Please stand up to the hand scan" Ms Pace instructed politely.
Caden listened, he stood up to the hand scan, dragged his arm upward and positioned it in the middle of the hand scan, seeing a rectangle box pop up with "Scanning" inside of it.
After waiting seconds, codes started invading the technology, flashing red colours each millisecond.
Ms Pace jumped up from her chair which was five feet away from the hand scan, staring at the error sign on the screen, confused on what she was seeing.
Ms Pace quickly glanced at Caden and back at the screen, hitting it slightly.
"Is something ok?" Caden asked worriedly.
"Ah-things are good, can you redo it again?" Ms Pace asked, sitting back in her chair all calm.
Caden removed his hand, getting the attention of a one-inch black ring on his index finger where a red light was seen at the bottom middle of the ring next to a small button.
"Forgot to turn it on" Caden whispered to himself, sounding cold behind the voice.

The red light turned green after Caden pressed the button next to it, he then again positioned his right hand on the hand scan, cancelling the sounds around him as he focused on his slow breathing.
He felt that weird tingling thing all around his body from the last time he tried the hand scan.
This tingling feeling felt like a snake slither its way from the back, all the way to the right shoulder and made its way down to the palm, sending a signal to the hand scan.
The word "Scanning" turned into a "Complete", being drowned by all the green that appeared straight afterwards.
" Powerless" appeared across Ms Pace's screen, she tapped along the table looking around, trying to hold back the laughter that showed up, trying to escape her mouth.
She hits her chest and cleared her throat, grabbing a tablet on the desk.
She strolled towards Caden, seeing a concerned face on his face, she then handed out the tablet to Caden, showing his progress.
A look of disappointment and anger was revealed on Caden's face, he gripped onto the tablet, nearly cracking the screen from blind rage.
"Now, now. No need to get angry, you may be powerless but you scored 95% on the test so you'll be sent to A-2 Class" Ms Pace said, trying her best calming Caden down.
[Class Entry]
Students in the A-2 went silent when the door opened, Caden revealed himself through the door and stood in front of the whole class, counting up twenty-four students split into seven sections of colour lines, Black, Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, and Purple.
The Black section was in the North East of the class, having five Blacks.
The Red section was in the North Middle, having two Reds.
The Orange section was in the North West, having two Oranges.
The Yellow section was in the West, having three Yellows.
The Green section was in the South West, having four Greens.
The Blue section was in the Middle, having three Blues.
The Purple section was in the Southeast, having five Purples.
"My name is Caden Dahil, I don't have any powers. Nice to meet you all" Caden introduced himself, smiling politely.
Mixed reactions of Laughter and Gasps filled the room, some were sinister, some were surprised.
This is the beginning journey of Caden's journey in Greenfield Supernatural High.
Or to say.
My beginning in Greenfield Supernatural High journey.
