Mystical Academy: The Mystery of the World

A loud ring deafen on my left ear and makes me startle. That also startle Ruin who is sleeping behind me. When I get up I glare at the person who has the face of Nicholas holding my alarm clock.

"Get up and ready in five minutes." He demands and adjust his sports watch. "Now!"

I groan and slowly crawls down the bed and went to the bathroom. It takes at least more than four minutes in the bathroom. I hadn't brush my teeth yet. He bangs on the door and told me to double time. I ignore him and slowly brush my teeth. The door opens and I look at him on the mirror. Good thing that I already wrapped the towel around my body. He looked at me in really annoyed face on through the mirror.

"Put that down and wash your mouth, right now." He demands again. I spit down the sink and wash my mouth. When I stand straight, I felt his arms around me and he carried me quickly outside the bathroom that makes me shriek. "Don't do this on purpose, or else you won't like what I will do next."

We both walk outside and there are few girls who is awake already and glance at us. Sometimes, they peek on us with disgust. I snorted and walk lazily. Good thing that there is Andrew who told me to cheer up because the training will be fun. I stop from walking when I saw Flame talking with girls in so oh-charming-smile to them. I am not jealous or something. It is just too crazy because we almost make out near the river. Then he escorted me back to the dorm and kissed me again. I did not complain for the reason that I wanted to feel other men's kissed besides of Nicholas and Jake.

When Flame had noticed our arrival he immediately jog towards me and I was about to avoid him but he already put his arms around me and kissed my cheek. I can see few glares from Andrew and mostly Nicholas who wanted to kill Flame, like right now. However, a playful side of me wanted to play with Flame. Like I did to Jake. We just go together and sometimes they kiss me and I let them but we don't have any official romantic relationship.

"Flame, please go ahead of us and ready everything." Nicholas orders. Flame grimaced at him and give him a: are-you-jealous-man- look. "I wanted you to be there first before us." Nicholas told him when we are walking near the door.

"Why?" Flame asked.

"Just do on what I said." Flame rolled his eyes and stole a kiss from my cheek and run. When we are already outside, Nicholas told me to start stretching and I did. I stretch lazily because I don't really like him demanding me. Andrew did the same while watching me.

What I hate most on what he told me? Is to run from the dorm towards the gym which is really like a marathon. I hate it. The distance from our dorm to the gym is two kilometers almost three. So when I get there, I am breathless and I feel like dying. Flame gave me a bottle of water and I drank it all.

"Stand straight!" he told me a little loud. I was surprised when he passed me the basketball. Good thing that my reflexes are good so I caught it before it hit my chest. He walk towards me and kick my feet in between to apart it a little. He told me to hold the ball in chest level and palms a little behind and pass it with a hand and arm force towards Flame. I did and Flame did the same. "Good." He told. He nods to Andrew and Flame who are distance facing each other and passing the ball to each other while moving sideward. "We will try the very slow way to the medium and to the fast to fastest."

"The purpose of this?" I asked him. He looked at me and cock his head to the left.

"To catch and hold the fire."

I wanted to grunt but we are two hours doing the same. Basketball, I enjoy it though. Flame didn't failed to amuse me but I still wanted to be serious on everything. My brother… I mean, Andrew is a fun too so we didn't notice the time. After cooling down, I had felt that I was so exhausted and too puffy and lousy to get up from my seat.

"I need to go back to my room." Flame said and run outside like it was an emergency. I lean my head on the wall. I close my eyes and had decided to take a nap. But I guess, it wasn't just a nap.

I roll over to my bed and hugged the pillow. That was really exhausting. When I understand that I still don't want to get up but I am late on the class, I immediately sat up and open my eyes wide. However, I didn't find my own table or bed. This is not my bed. I look around to see a sexy muscular back of a man doing something on the table.

"Good thing that you wake up. Just in time for your new subject."

"New subject?" I asked him. I look at myself and I am not wearing my clothes. I look inside the oversize sweatshirt that I am wearing and I am not wearing my sports bra too. "D-did you undress me?" I really asked him a little annoyed.

"You can say that." he said and turn around to me with a big mug on his hand. He walk towards my bed—let's say his bed and sat in front of me. He took my hand as he gave me the warm big mug. "You must be hungry." I look into it and the soup looks very famishing.

"What's this?"

"It is a breakfast soup that is always served on my breakfast." I take a sip on it. What really makes me creepy on what he did is he gently stroke his hand on my hair and gently pushed it at the back of my ear, with his eyes wondering on my face. I put down the mug and glare at him. "I should be mad because you undress me. I also should be mad because you are doing that. It is freaking me out so please stop it."

"I don't want to."

"So you are awake!" a familiar voice got out from another door inside the room. She smiled at me and walk towards the table. "I am so sorry that my brother keeps on harassing you. Next time, I won't let him help me undress you." Marissa did undress me. Good thing. "Wow, I miss this soup." She took a bowl and put a little on it.

"Did you ready her next subject?" Nicholas asked and stood. I can't help to glance at his eight packs abdominal and massive chest. He's quite a view. Damn, I have to shook those fantasies and just enjoy this warm soup. It was delicious and one of the best soup that I had ever taste.

"Yes, I did." Marissa saluted and lift her bowl. I nod at her.

"What's that subject?"

"You won't be attending science, history, and math subjects. Your subjects are more on physical."

"Why?" questioning why is my main curiosity. He looked at me in the eyes like he already told me why.

"As your adviser, you need a lot of physical training than mental. Since I am your legal guardian in this school, I could do and give what is the best for you."

"And the best is to make me physically exhausted every day and night?" he walk towards me and I avoid on gulping and gaping.

"Making you physical exhausted, every day and night will make your body more flexible, alert and your immune system will get stronger. You are going to undergo army training, swords training, archery, and the last is the best training."

It really makes me super, surprised. I had seen the horses of Mystical Academy but I never get a chance to ride on it. Now, my subject is to know how to ride on the horse. A pure white glowing mare was lead towards me. I was instantly smitten on her. I hold the middle face of mare.

"This is Artemis." He said. When I look into her eyes, I had notice our contact at each other. I feel like I know her. "Artemis, Catastrophe. Your mate."

"Mate?" I asked him. The horse move her face closer to me like a kitty who like to be patted.

"Yes. She's yours. She will be your ride." I really gape on his statements. The mare is mine?

"She's mine?" I really can't believe it. Please tell me that I heard it all wrong. He gave me the lace of the horse and look at me intently.

"I found her last night watching you. Artemis found you. However, she was about to approach you but Flame was with you. I hate to see those things. I am jealous because you look like my love yet you are kissing other man. And all I think is 'you are mine'." He pressed his lips on mine for a millisecond and turn back.

"I'm not her." I said it that stop him from walking away.

"If you say so." He said without glancing back. Another horse came walking towards Nick. It is a stallion for now and it is a little bigger to mine. And my lesson starts.

I walk inside the classroom of Literature a little late. Mrs. Patterson told me to proceed and I did. I slump on the chair and prop my elbow on the desk and leans my chin over my palm. I am really sleepy. The horse riding was really exciting but my body needs sleep. After Mrs. Patterson's class I walk outside with a yawn. I bump on someone's chest and when I look up, grinning Flame is in front of me.

"How about a hot coffee?" he asked me and put his arms around me. "You are too tired. Do you want to sleep with me until to the next subject?"

"No." I announce it coldly. We get into the dining hall where students are gathered for the lunch. Instead of eating my face is on the table and I already had fallen asleep. But still my sense of hearing is still working.

"My poor baby, Nick exhaust her too much." That's Flame's voice. I tried to open my eyes when someone pull my shoulders and hold my forehead before it falls.

"Wake up." That voice really wakes me up. Andrew pushed the tray of food in front of me. "Eat before sleeping." He demands. I lazily took the spoon and fork. I eat a little and drank water then, I stood to walk off.

I finally get into my sleeping stop under the apple tree. It is peaceful here so no one will try to ruin my nap. Also, the students are too busy to worry about me. Since the midterm is a week ago and they are cramming. I sleep so deep but I wake up from someone's touch. When I open my eyes I saw a Goddess above me. I am pillowing her lap while she's gently braiding my hair, caressing it and massage my head gently. She smiles at me.

"How are you feeling, love? Did your mentor exhaust you too much?" I was too mesmerized and surprise to answers her questions. "It's alright, I am always here for you. No one is going to hurt you while he's still with you. Trust yourself and trust your protectors. You'll be with me again." I wanted to ask her why she called me love like I was her daughter. I wanted to ask her why she wanted to protect me. Is she the one who always protect me?

When I open my eyes, the Goddess is no longer in front of me but Flame who is grinning from ear to ear. Did he watch me while I am sleeping? It is really bothering when it comes to him. He gently caress my hair and asked me if I sleep well. I just nod and lay my back as I stare at the orange sky of the sunset.

"Do you know how beautiful you are while you are sleeping and mostly when you just woke up?"

"No I don't." He move closer and puts his pressure on his arms just to look down at me. I look back at him and he nod down to kiss me. I did kiss back at him. It is not because I like it too but I just wanted too. I actually don't like him but sometimes it is fun kissing somebody else to make someone jealous. Am I that evil now?

"You are beautiful." He murmurs on my ear and gently bit my earlobe. It gives me a shivering sensation. Nick never done that to Adhiti but Jake always do that to me. He kissed the back of my ear down to my neck. I just let him and closed my eyes to imagine that it wasn't that disgusting.

"What time is it?" I asked him to find a way to stop him doing it. But half of me wanted it for revenge.

"Time for us to make out." He murmurs and gently suck the skin of my neck. I just wished that he won't leave any mark but half of me which is Adhiti doesn't want to.

"Stop that." I told him. He did and just leans his forehead on mine. He look down on my eyes with a smile.

"Have you ever make out with someone else?"

"Yes." I said it plain and lazy. I pushed him and sat up. He smiled lopsidedly, I make a move that I also didn't expect to do. I pushed his back on the trunk of the tree and move my knees astride his lap and started kissing him. He kiss back lasciviously and hold my butt cheek. I just let him hold it. This is called making out, or kiss and cuddle? One of his hand goes up in front of me to remove the tie and unbutton my shirt but I stop from kissing him that makes him also stop. "Don't you dare." I warned him. He smile playfully and just caressed my face.

I get to my room before the diner and feed Ruin and Katherine who are probably hungry. I really forget on feeding Ruin because I was too exhausted at noon. But someone get in to feed him. I removed my clothes and jumped into warm shower which really soothes me. I lay down my head on the bathtub and thought about my dream. Why did she always appear in my dream? Who is she? Ever since, she never leave me. When I am in very rough time, and I fall asleep she always appears in my dream to comfort me. Who is that Goddess?

After the dinner, Marissa and Andrew told me that we are going to make fun on the woods. I am really curios about Eliza. I haven't seen her since the incident at the back of the gymnasium. I asked Marissa about Eliza and she told me that there is an emergency at their Kingdom.

I together with Adhiti's brothers, Marissa and Flame went to the woods at the back of the gym with woods, blankets and they brought liquors with them. They gave me some liquor and I just accept it though I really don't drink. I had learn how to get drunk when I was back at the town. Marcus and George always there to rescue me from Jake and males who almost raped me.

The first time that I get drunk was in Adhiti's time. Nicholas was there and them except for Flame. I tried not to drink too much but Flame is really forcing me to drink. Since in their eyes, I and he have a thing, or simply dating. However, I didn't think it that way. It is up to them to think such things.

I don't know what kind of hard drink it is but it really burns my throat. Ruin was with us who is playing around and running around. I had forget that we are meeting Andrew's Birthday which is tomorrow so they had plan on getting drunk. I got a little dizzy but I drank a little. Andrew had drank a lot together with Flame because they are having a dare. Nicholas came over and drank with us who always eyed me and Flame. Flame didn't really take a chance on not flirting on me. He always kiss me and I just let him. I can see and feel Nicholas's glare on us.

My world is really dizzy and I had learn how to laugh with them. We keep on laughing on something that sometimes sounds really crazy. When it is Andrew together with Flame, everything are crazy. I didn't understand what happens but I felt someone really kissing me. But I tried many times to push him.

"Come on, C, help me undress." That voice was Flame's. I chuckled sarcastically and pushed him. Ruin barks at Flame. "Okay, let's not do it." He murmurs. I close my eyes and hear Ruin's growls. Though, he's just a pup he knows how to make people get scared. "Chill, Ruin." He murmurs. "Fuck…" he cursed. When I open my eyes, I found Ruin bit Flame on his pants. Ruin didn't let Flame's pants go. "I'm sorry, Ruin. Okay? Let go." He gently told the pup. I laugh and laugh. I am really going crazy.

I felt someone's arms who took me up. I can determine that the body is a male and it was massive and muscular. His scent had immediately makes me know who he is. I heard that Ruin let go of Flame and now growl at Flame. I guess Flame runs away. What a jerk? How could he leave me here? But it is fine though.

"Who are you?" I asked him.

"Nick." He answer plainly. I nod and more like pouted. I look around and it was all dark. I haven't seen the bone fire and I cannot hear Andrew nor Patrick and Marissa.

"Where are we?"

"Really away from them." I hugged his neck and leans my head on his shoulder. What am I doing?

"That school is really awful." I murmur.

"Why?"

"I just wished not to go back there." I felt a soft warm thing pressed on my forehead.

"Do you want to be away from the school? Do you want me to accompany you?"
