《Five Elements Academy: A Tale Of Magic》Chapter 1: The Second School Year
Advertisement
(PDV 3° person, Five Elements Island)
A private jet lands on the airport, slowly stopping as the turbines go off. The door of the plane open as a limousine stops right at the bottom. From the plane, two girls come out, both dressed in a Japanese school uniform.
Black blazer, white button shirt, red necktie and red skirt that is right above the knees. The first girl has a pretty bobbed brown hair, bright brown eyes with a hint of blue, fair white skin and a pretty face with a serious expression.
She also has a well-proportioned body. And tagging right behind her, the other girl. Long, blonde hair that’s almost golden, going until her waist, a bit wavy. Her eyes are of an emerald green, and her face is extremely beautiful, giving the feeling of a gentle girl.
Her white porcelain skin almost glowing under the sun. Both have the same height, around 1,70 meters tall. As they go down the stairs of the jet, the door of the limousine, and a woman comes out from it.
1,80 meters tall, and a bit more with her black low high-heels. Her skin is extremely pale and smooth, her hair purely white. However, she isn’t old. She actually looks like someone around her 20 years old.
Her face is beautiful, clearly a Japanese woman, and explosive body hidden under social clothes. Social black pants and a button, long-sleeved white shirt with the sleeves folded back to her elbows.
Her white eyes watch the two girls come down. As they get to her, the bobbed hair girl steps aside and bows slightly to the blonde girl. The white-haired woman does the same, saying:
(Misaki): “It’s a pleasure to meet you, Your Highness. My name is Misasagi Misaki, and I’m the Headmaster of the Five Elements Academy.”
The girl, seeing Misaki bow, says with an almost musical voice:
(Serena): “Please, don’t be so formal with me, Misaki-dono! I heard a lot about you from my father! And please, even if you know who I am, let me introduce myself.” She grabs the hem of her skirt and lightly raises it, bowing slightly, in a polite salute. “I’m Serena Pendragon, crown princess of the United Kingdom of England. It’s a pleasure to be in the presence of the strongest human on earth.”

Taking Serena’s example, the bobbed hair girl also makes the same salute to Misaki saying:
(Maria): “It’s a pleasure to meet you, Misaki-dono! My name is Maria Silver, and I’m Serena-Ojou-sama’s maid and bodyguard.”
Misaki also bowed lightly, saying:
(Misaki): “It’s a pleasure to meet you too, Maria-chan.”
Maria nodded, and avoided looking to Misaki’s eyes, being all fidgety. Seeing this, Misaki gets confused and asks:
(Misaki): “Maria-chan, are you alright?”
(Maria): “N-no! I-I mean, yes, I’m alright! it’s just… hum….”
Misaki tilts her head in confusion, while Serena gracefully covers her mouth, jiggling. Maria, blushing and nervous, mumbles to herself a bit and says in a loud voice after breathing in deeply:
(Maria): “May I have an autograph?!”
(Misaki): “… Autograph?”
Serena immediately starts laughing, making Maria go completely red. Controlling herself, Serena explains to Misaki, who’s completely lost.
(Serena): “Maria is a great fan of you, Misaki-dono! She’s a fan of martial arts, and you being the strongest person in the world really make her admire you!”
Misaki smiled hearing that, and said to Maria:
(Misaki): “It’s an honor. I don’t have a pen with me right now, so later I will send my autograph to your room. Also, if you want some pointers in martial arts, just let me know!”
(Maria): “! Yes! I surely will! Thank you very much!”
Misaki held open the door of the back limousine as they ether it, and the driver goes off from the airport to the city. Both Serena and Maria look mesmerized to the city around them. Almost all the tall buildings are painted in different tones of green.
Also, there are a lot of trees and grass everywhere. Seeing this, Serena asks:
(Serena): “I heard that this island had a lot of nature, but this is simply amazing!”
(Maria): “Yes, Ojou-sama! Even the buildings painted in green are such a beautiful sight!”
Misaki smiled and said:
(Misaki): “This is the Green District, and from here you can go to the Monster Forest and see the Green Tower from the top of the gates of the town. Of course, since green magic is deeply related to the nature and forests, this is the most “green” place of the town.”

(Maria): “There aren’t many people around…”
She says as she notices the very few people in the city despite its size. As far as she knows, the Five Elements “city” is enormous, from the size of a small country, and the “island” is almost half of Australia. Misaki sighs and says:
(Misaki): “Although we have a big population, it isn’t enough to fill up the whole Five Elements city. Although this is good, it means that we have more room for more students in the next years. Oh, right, you girls already took your CIT, right?”
Color Identification Test, or CIT, is the test that helps you to determine your affinity with magic, and which color it belongs. There are five types, White Magic, Green Magic, Blue Magic, Red Magic and finally Black Magic.
(Serena): “Yes, both of us are White Mages.”
(Misaki): “Oh, I see! Well then, since you’ve already got your CIT, take this.”
She says, taking something from her pocket and offering to them. Serena and Maria took them. it was a rectangular piece of crystal, of the size of a cellphone, semi-transparent and a bit thinner than the average phone.
(Maria): “Is this...”
(Misaki): “Your Student Guide. Just touch it with your indicator for a few seconds to register yourselves as owners. You would receive it at the academy, but I’ve already gave some to other students, like some of the other teachers did.”
As she says that, they touch the screen with their indicators. After a few seconds, the Student Guide shines golden and white for a few seconds, and when the light dies, the pieces of crystal have changed to an opaque white with an interface like the one of a cellphone.
(Serena): “This is amazing…”
(Misaki): “Right? Anyway, these things will display your student information in the case you need it to identify yourself, and it will serve as a normal cellphone with unlimited memory. You can communicate with anyone of the school who has one of these just by thinking about them. also, if you need to know anything about the rules of the school, check the Rules app.”
(Serena and Maria): “Thank you, Misaki-dono!”
They both said at the same time, bowing slightly. Misaki only smiled wryly at their politeness. They will still take some time to get to the school anyway due the great distance from it to the airport, so Misaki begins speaking again:
(Misaki): “Anyway, the color of the SG(Student Guide) shows what kind of magic you have affinity with. Also, it’s impossible to lose it, so you girls don’t have to worry about it.”
(Serena): “What do you mean?”
(Misaki): “If you want, you can test it. No matter where you leave it, it will always reappear on your pocket when you reach for it or think about it. No matter what, it will always come back to your hand, and is indestructible, so you don’t have worry about it at all. And since only you can access the information, your privacy is granted.”
(Maria): “So handy…”
(Misaki): “Right?”
She says, laughing. After a few minutes chatting, they finally get to the academy. Misaki goes out of the limo first, followed by Maria and Serena. Both girls look shocked to the “academy”. A massive white castle, surrounded by white walls at least twenty meters tall, shining under the sun.
(Misaki): “Anyway, girls, I’ll let you both here. Don’t forget to check your SG if you need anything. After the opening ceremony, the SGs will guide you both to where you will be living. And although I’m sure that you already know that, even if you are the crown princess of England, the use of that power here is forbidden subjected to punishment. Bye!”
She says, parting with the girls and going back to the limousine, which darts away, leaving both girls in the middle of the student crowd that’s going inside the castle. Looking at each other, they just sigh and go with the flow of students.
