Chapter 26

And stared at him. He's also wearing a jacket and a pajama- all black.
"I should be the one asking you that, what are you doing here" his baritone voice said, I gulp in awkward and nervousness. I averted my eyes and turned my back on him then looked at the ocean.
The ship was still moving so any time, we could get to Moon Academy.
'Oh oh oh oh'
'Oh oh oh oh'
"You heard it too, aren't you?" I suddenly looked at Crush-yes it's Crush. And frowned
"What ..... can I hear?" Was my simple answer, I will lie as much as I can.
He frowned. "You'd sing. I saw" I sighed at what he said. "And?"
"And?" He muttered. "And I know you heard it too" he insisted I faked a laugh.
"Yes, I sang. But .... you have nothing to do with what you hear" I said and approached him
"Tell me, what is it .... what do you hear?" I asked calmly and touched his right shoulder then passed. I sigh. I was almost there.
"Niyo ...." he repeated, I glance at him. "Ice users" I answered as I walk to the decks and sit as I look at the moon above with those bright stars.
"Well, I'm just curious why you'd sang it"
"I heard it .... from my bestfriend .... Ayu" I ejaculated weakly and sighed. It should be 'ex bestfriend'
"That song was special, someone says that's the other key to open something we don't even know ...." he said and sat down next to me. It means not only Ice Users can hear but also him, but ... why? And what connect?
I hugged myself as the wind blew.
"Crush" he said formally
"Devon" I answered. I see, the 'shake hands' thing is not really trendy for them and so do I.
"You said a while ago, 'to open something' what do you mean?" I asked without looking at him
"Well, some magical dimension to find the answers ... the truth ... that's my great grandfather told after he ... past away" he explained as I nodded. That's kinda awkward.
Silence prevailed between the two of us as the wind blew again.
I stood up first and he turned around. "I'll be the first" I said goodbye and he nodded. I went down and I met the man with his magic. He smiled so I also smiled a little.
I walked back to my cabin. When I opened the door I was surprised because the weird blue hair guy sitting on my bed opened up to me.
He stood up and walked towards me. I leaned over to give him a way.
I'm disgusted because he's tresspassing, how dare he is!
He stopped where I was without looking at me.
"Hmm.I know you, and I saw you singing.Maybe you know where's the dimension.I'm already dying to know you more" I raised an eyebrow at what he said. "Pardon?" I calmly ask, he look at me and grin then walk away.
He's really weird ...
I might turn him to Ice.Grrr !!
He took us down the ship because we had reached where we were. The Moon Academy.
Everyone is excited including me because finally, we can study here as well.
Ever since Crush and I talked, we haven't noticed, well. What can I expect? Will he come to me and be close? Tsk. Nevermind.
Now, what I avoid is the weird blue hair guy because I feel like he wants to approach me and tease me. And I don't like that.
Blessary suddenly grabbed my arm when we finally stepped on the paved road.
I'm curious because Moon Academy is an island.
"Hi, Dev! How's your day?" He said happily and smiled so I also rewarded him with a frugal smile. "Fine.You?" I asked back. He lost his smile on his lips and sighed.
"Well, it's not that good" he said languidly frowning at me. "Why?" I asked. He smiled hard at me and bowed.
"Novel and I .... are not bestfriend anymore" I just looked and refrained from laughing. Well, it's just funny because, I mean-on their situation, they're just using it. 'Cause in the first place, they both like Crush .
I heard from Blessary's story yesterday that Novel and Crush are childhood friend.Then, Novel's love is Crush. And Blessary's crush is Crush so blessary just used Novel to get closer to Crush.
I didn't say anything but sigh.Such a useless drama.
"But, I'm already moving there because you're already here!" Blessary said happily and hugged me with a grin.
"Kids, prepare yourselves. The bus is already there to pick us up." Ms. Moiselle commanded. Blessary immediately let go and anchored my arm again.
While the bus was still gone, I first rolled my eyes around.
He is really an island and there is pure water all around, in front of us there are two big mountains and the side of the road is full of trees.
The weird blue hair guy and I accidentally caught sight of each other so I immediately avoided my sight. Shit. He's looking at me all the time ?!
The bus also arrived so we boarded. Blessary was next to me and the whole trip was just blabbering on like crazy.
"You know what, just now I noticed that Raven and Shawn Aaron are handsome, especially Crush, kyaahh" he screamed so I just covered my face out of embarrassment. The others looked at me.
"Shh" I said and placed my second finger on her lips.
It nodded and smiled. I withdrew my finger and adjusted the mirror. How I hate noisy people.
I picked up my book and started reading.
"Dev." Blessary whispered
"Hmm?" I replied without looking at him
"Have you ever fallen in love with a person?" I frowned at his question.
"I--"
*BOOGSSHHH !!!
We screamed in panic when the bus suddenly overturned and ..... and fell !!
*BOOGGSSSHHH !!
"Dev"
"Dev"
I opened my eyes and felt pain on my cheek and forehead.
Luckily, I'm wearing a seat belt.
"Blessary" I said
"O my gosh.You're alive.Thank god!" Blessary quickly removed my seatbelt and hugged me tightly.
I rolled my eyes at the bus. It was already standing and there was no one except Ms. Moiselle and the driver ... who was dead.
"What ... happened?" I asked and let go of the hug.
"Someone attacked our car and we had to get out of it before the car exploded" he said and supported me.
"How are they" I pointed out to the two
"They're gone. And there's nothing we can do" he replied. We walked out of the bus.
"Where are the others?" I asked. He took me away from the bus and we went to the wounded like me. There were many of them, about ten.
"There. Fighting with those gold cloak with mascara unknown enemies" he replied and pointed out where they were fighting.
My eyes widened as I realized those Sinners.
There are many of them but only five are true in the gold cloak, all are just clones but once you fight the clone, the clone will multiply 2 times.
The more they fight, the more the clone double. They multiply more and more and it is possible to beat us.
"I'll just help them" he said and quickly flew away.
It's only now that I realize that I don't have glasses and I'm not wearing gloves. I'm just wearing a jacket and fitted jeans.
"Stay here. I'll take the medicine in my bag" I said to the injured and ran back to the bus.
When I got inside, I didn't even ice the inside of the bus or the outside so that it wouldn't explode.
I even looked at Ms. Moiselle who had a mirror pierced in various parts of her body, but the most noticeable thing was the shuriken on her side that was pierced. I took that and examined it. Another shuriken.
I took my sling bag and put the shuriken there and took the medical kit from my travel bag. I also took my pair of gloves and put them on.
I got off the bus and went to the wounded again to treat their wounds. I also treated mine.
"Thank you for your treatment, come here first and rest, we will fight first" said the Ice User man and they all stood up and then ran there.
I just sighed and watched them. They can do that.
Sinners are from Mt. Moon, they are the nature elements and they are stronger compared to those with me.
You"re just skinning them as human beings to protect yourself and the Moon Academy.It means, we"re close to M.A.
We just have to pass the first test which is it now, the Sinners. When we finished it had a second and third test.
This is done by most M.A. heads. To be tested if you are eligible you must be an M.A. student. You also have a chance to be part of the Elite Royals.
This will serve as our training to get to Stage 4 of our magic but it is difficult.
Well, everything is difficult in the world of Luna.
"Novel !!"
I heard Blessary's voice
I heard Blessary's voice.Whd at happen?
I look at them and stand, searching for Blessary.Their battle ground was circled by the dark fire.it's from Crush's magic, but It's Sinners whose floating above and controlling it.
May I tell you, Sinners are completely copycut.
What they see is your magic, they will touch you and copy it
To tell you also, my parents said that to me on their first day at Moon Academy. So I know a lot about them
I"ve seen Blessary protect Novel who is already fading, even Blessary.
Should I help? But there's Crush, acting a hero to save his admires, ohh! How romantic!
Weirdong Blue hair guy and Seleno Null boy were also there who helped Crush.
Someone approached me and burned his left leg, I immediately went to him and made him sit down.
"Brea has a bad experience, I'll leave her with you first" said the woman.
"Are you a water user?" I asked and turned away from him
To take a bandage and simply make ice cubes for his wound.
I turned to him and approached.
"Wash your wound first before we touch your wound with ice cubes and apply a bandage. There are no herbs here next door so here is our first aid kit, wash it early" I explained at length and followed. niya.
I lightly touched the ice cubes to her leg so she wouldn't cry too much.
He grinned once more, but smiled loosely when I bandaged his wound.
"Sit down first and rest, with the size of your wound, there's a good chance it will get worse" I explained and stood up again to visit a woman who was also leading the woman recently.
"What happened?" I asked calmly when I saw that his leg was also on fire, but it was worse.
"Legs are their target of us and many more worse than them" he replied worriedly, I helped him sit down and ordered brea to clean the woman's leg.
"How did you get out?"
"Einna, the Ice User, helped me, she was freezing my way out of the purple fire, but they were too strong" she explained. I held both her shoulders.
"Listen, in order for you to beat them, hit their right pulse arm, that's where their heart is. Goodluck" I reminded him and he smiled and then gave a thumbs up.
I went back to the woman I was going to treat, just like I did with Brea, I treated her too and didn't let her fight again.
"I'm brea, water user" introduced the female water user
"Cynthia, Earth user" wait, her name is familiar.
"Cynthia, how are you connected with Blessary?" I asked calmly, she looked at me and smiled bitterly.
"I'm her ex-bestfriend before Novel who is also her ex-bff now" she said sadly, I just nodded.
"Why aren"t you paying attention?" I ask again
"It's easy for Blessary to forget, Once in her mind, Past is past, and all that must be forgotten. So I'm part of her past" she replied and bowed
"We're sorry to hear that" said Brea, just raised an eyebrow when she said 'we're'. Psh. I'm just asking
"What's your name?" I came back to reality when Brea asked me
"Devon" I asked sparingly and turned my back on them.Watching those fighting.Sinners are somewhat reduced. Well, because of that girl, I sighed when the real Sinner suddenly stabbed her.
I immediately ran there.
"Devon!" I heard the two shout. But I ignored that and ran fast.
I stumped my right feet and quickly froze what they were stepping on. The dark fire that surrounded them also disappeared.
The others were surprised and slipped but what I thought was the woman. I removed one of my gloves and I made couples of ice arrows and snapped my finger to signal it and attack those Sinners in their right arm pulse that surrounded the woman.
I attended to him and helped him to his feet.
"Hold on" I ejaculated weakly as he nodded. We started walking but even before we could go far, all the Sinners suddenly disappeared. I wondered. Is it over?
Nevermind, the important thing is that I get to know Brea and get treated temporarily. I will find Blessary, too.
I was surprised when Seleno Null Boy took the girl and he took the lead himself
"Thank you ....." I couldn't continue because I didn't know his name.
"Raven" he replied as I nodded. "Thank you, Raven. Please tell Brea to treat me for a moment, I will bless you, If you don't mind" I said and smiled sparingly.
"My pleasure" he said and walked there first.
Wait-Raven?
Ohh, the one Blessary said was handsome with Crush and Shawn .... Shawn Aaron? Is that so?
My eyes searched for Blessary and I spotted him arguing with Novel who had a wound in his leg.
Are legs really the target of the Sinners? But why are their wounds the same? It should be different to how the Sinners hit their leg? Somethings ....... wrong ....
I approached them.
"You've been helped, you're still aarte"
"E di thank you, just leave" Novel said and suddenly looked at me.
"Your BFF healer is here" he was annoyed and stood up, as you passed us. Blessary turned to me and smiled then hugged me.
I immediately put on my glove on the right and reciprocated the hug as well.
I let go and smiled at him sparingly.
"Are you okay?" He asked thoughtfully.
"I should be the one to say that, are you ok?" I asked back
He nodded and smiled loosely. "Uh mm" he replied and hugged me again. I simply let go of the ice wrapped around the ground.
"Let's go" I said and first let go again. It landed on my arm.
We went back to where Brea and Cynthia were with Raven and that injured girl to rest.
"Well, here we go to spend the night" Crush commanded as we all nodded.
It was night and we all formed a circle and surrounded the fire. It was cold and we had nowhere to sleep.
The bus exploded just now. So we really couldn't sleep.
The wounded, I have treated, we can eat and the problem can just sleep.
"The cold, brrrr" Blessary said and hugged my arm. The coldness of his hand even though I was wearing a jacket. I removed my gloves and gave it to him
"Use it, to reduce the cold in your hand" I said and he immediately took it and was shocked when he held my hand.
"A-the coldness of your hand, Dev" he stammered, I just smiled at him and also wore the hoodie of the jacket on my head.
It's just annoying because I don't have my mirror. It broke on the bus.
He hugged my arm again.
"What are we going to do guys?" Asked a male colleague who was chilling in the cold.
"We'll walk until we get to Moon Academy" Raven replied and drank some water.
"What ?! No way! If you just want to be you!" Novel's voice was not the same and he glared at Raven.
"That's the only way for now, Novel. Don't act anymore" said the female Lava User.
"Are you mocking me?" Novel seemed to be mocking and stood up. The Lava User stood up.
"If that's what happened to you, then it's a yes" was its challenge. We just found that we were surrounded by lava and fire outside.
"It's ok, we're getting colder" the man joked so he tasted the evil stares from the two.
But that hotness we feel turn to coldness.It was weirdong blue hair guy did it.
"Can you stop fighting ?! Let's just be together, you're still fighting" he preached.
Everyone was silent and the two sat down at the same time.
I simply looked at the ice when the weird blue hair guy behind us.
And that's when I realized, that my ice is different from theirs. They can't even let go of Ice, and that's when I just remembered that there are three kinds of Ice.
"For now, we will stick to Raven's plan. We don't have a vehicle available so we will definitely walk" Crush said and sighed.
Blessary added fire in the middle.
"How are the injured? They are already serious and it won't be long if they are not treated immediately" Brea said worriedly.
The others looked at me and I gasped.
"I don't have enough skills to cure them all and get them back to their former strength. 'If I force myself, I could be myself, the one at risk" I explained as they headed.
"Then sacrifice! Aren't you a healer? Do the right thing!" Cynthia moaned crying. I looked at her intently.
"If you were yourself, you would be in my situation. Are you willing to sacrifice your life for them? Even though you know I know I don't have enough ability to heal, will you still do it? Even if I sacrifice my life to heal them all , that still won't be enough for me to keep them alive "I explained at length
He was silent at what I said. I just sighed and looked at the fire.
That's probably ... the longest I've said in my whole life.
"Let's all rest" Crush ordered so we hid.
Nature users made us beds so that we could sleep comfortably. Fortunately, they even thought of that.
I lay down next to Blessary and looked at the stars in the sky.
"The difficulty of our situation now" he exclaimed weakly
"Be strong Blessary, this is a test we must pass" I said softly and turned a blind eye. I even heard it yawning
"You're right, Devon. Goodnight" he said
"Goodnight"
"Dev-AAAAAAAAAAHHHHH !!" I woke up suddenly when Blessary suddenly shouted and was surprised when someone pulled
to him away
"Blessary!" I shouted and took my sling bag then chased him.
"Devon !!" they shouted behind me
"Blessary!" I shouted at him
"Devon !!! HELP MEE !!" he shouted. I couldn't see who was pulling him.
