Midnight High

"Yes, the school is called Midnight High... it is a special school for problem children, and although it had a graduation rate of only 10%, everyone who does graduate from there, have bright futures, hmm... let me think, I am sure you have heard of Max Lukeman."

"Well obviously, you have to know him if you leave in the present age, I mean he was literally a genius who developed the technology which could warp light. It current uses include true invisibility but it is said that we can go into a new space age if we use it to overcome light speed and hence be able to travel out into the galaxy. That was over 5 years ago in 2026, and at any rate, I don't see why that is important."

"Alex, don't you realize that he graduated from this school just based on the context of this conversation, jeez, what kind of grandson have I raised?"

Alex scratched the back of his head," Well I am sorry for not having Einstein IQ."

Matteo sighed," at any rate, what I am trying to say is Alex, those who graduate from this school are all successful. Famous politician, diplomats, world renowned singers, comedians and even 10 figure businessmen like the CEO of Phoenix ltd., they all graduated from this boarding school."

"

So why haven't I heard of this school then, if it is so great and all?" Alex exasperated.

"Well… Alex I guess I can only really say that this school is only known to certain circle, for example if you dig deep enough on the black market for information about you could probably find a bit about it for a huge price," Matteo sipped his tea again in a calm manner and yet Alex could feel an ominous premonition overcome him.

'It was that kind of school', Alex felt his spine shiver and his knuckles go cold.

He wanted to say that he did not want to go and yet the words go stuck in his mouth, it was as if they would choke him if he did say it. His grandfather had gone through all the effort to finally get him a new school so that he can finally move on with his life and leave his past behind.

"Young lad, don't worry, the school is not that bad, just go there, graduate, and come back a better man," Matteo spoke," now then go and read the letter and pack tomorrow since you need to settle into the dorm tomorrow."

Alex felt a sturdy hand clasp his shoulder for support and a broad smile that can even make the devil himself feel safe.

"Yes Grandpa."
