"Put your hand on the crystal" , she said and he nodded. Maxwell walked to where the crystal lay, plastered in the wall with a part of it visible. "Place your hand on it ", she said again and he shot an eye at her .
"I heard you the first time ", he said and she shivered a bit .
Maxwell placed his hands on it and there was a very light movement on the earth . It wasn't an earthquake, just a mere shift .
"Why isn't it saying anything?"
"Is the monitor still working?"
"I have a strange feeling he's absorbing the energy from the crystal ", someone said and the other person hit him . " I told you to stop reading mangas " .
Mrs Sylvia smiled a little and muttered .
"Three... Two... One..."
"Now " , she said smiling widely as the monitor came alive .
" Type level A1++ ... High ... Very high " it said shocking everyone.
"The crystal's hot " , he said and she smiled. " Don't take your hands off it " , she said and he nodded.
"Angel; angel on a mission; guardian angel " it said and the whole class murmured .
"Calm down. I know you're all shocked. We have dumb Angels and warrior angels ... This ... This particular specie of angel is still under research ", she said but the noise didn't stop.
Maxwell was hot, he had deep eyes and dark hair and his face... It was God's own favourite masterpiece. And the way his neck was graced with a tattoo that went down to his back ... It looked more like a lion , Marcy wasn't sure . And that aura that he carried around him told people that he was destined for something very big unlike the other and the only person who hadn't checked her rank to know where she belonged... Marcy .
" Rank ; 99.5 and counting... High.... Very high..." The monitor suddenly stopped. Then it cranked up again and said , " Could destroy the world with it's illuminouous light...so... Must not be tampered with " and the monitor having being drained of it's power ,shut down completely.
"I'll tell the principal that we need a new monitor " , she said feeling satisfied.
Maxwell removed his hands from the crystal and his expression was unreadable. The class looked at him with awe, he was a god.
The class was talking to themselves when Marcy spoke up. "What about me? I deserve a shot", she said looking at the teacher .
Mrs Sylvia smiled and nodded .
"I didn't see you there ,maybe because you're too insignificant", she said . " But it seems like the monitor is broken, Soo...."
"I'll still try ", she said rubbing her forehead.
"Ok. Go on , place your hand on the crystal"
Some girls snickered. Marcy closed her eyes and put her hand on the crystal.
It could work...
No, I'm open to demons, it wouldn't... I'm a coward ... A loser and a victim for the devil...
The monitor suddenly came alive.
"Type level... An error occured... Nill... No type level... open to demons...angel on a mi..." The monitor died .
The class was silent for a while then the laughter came just like a tornado sweeping a building with full force. "Open to demons... That must be your future ", someone said and they laughed.
Susan was about to say something when the bell rang.
" You should all have some rest this weekend", Mrs Sylvia said smiling at them as they left the building.
Someone quacked Marcy and laughed. "Watch it, demon"
"I think she should be the one saying it", Susan said and they turned to face her .
"Ohhh , Susan, the shy girl who just found out she's a warrior", one of them said.
"Ohhh, Phil ,the bold guy who just found out he was a nobody", she said eyeing him and taking Marcy's hand .
"Let's go ", she said . Marcy just went along not thinking or processing what just happened.
What the ...
" You should learn to fight, really, this school is survival of the fittest ", Susan said leaving her hand as they went outside.
"I didn't ask for your help", Marcy said though grateful. "You didn't need to ", she said smirking.
" You seem to have your mouth as your only form of defense. I shouldn't have taken you to the school clinic ", she said rolling her eyes .
"Wait. You took me to the clinic? But..."
But... I thought it was Maxwell
Silly me, it can't be me .
"Yes . You looked like you were about to die,so I took you to the clinic doorstep because no one was around", she said shrugging.
"But seems you're not also the friendly type", she said turning to leave. " And you probably like the loneliness you're currently facing"
"I'm not lonely...I just don't have anyone ", Marcy retorted trying to defend herself.
"What's the difference. You're lonely either ways and I'm asking for friendship _" she turned to face her , then said, "_ but you don't seem interested in having anyone around you and that's the more reason for me to want to be your friend ".
"I don't want your friendship... I just want to be left alone ", she said her hands in a fist.
"Then I'll leave you, but, my offer is still open, Marcy Von ", she said and left the poor girl standing alone and looking helpless.
Who the fuck is Susan?
Does she want anything from me? Or simply just wants to use me... Or... Just wants to be my friend...
"Susan ", she muttered, she was going to check who she was.
Susan Devereux was the quiet kid that minded her business. Her family wasn't quite influential but they owned a law firm that was going quite well. Her social life was zero but strangely, she was easy going and the thing that Marcy shared with her was that they didn't have friends, or maybe she ditched her friends.
" I think that girl is an asshole" , she heard someone say.
Everyone's an asshole.
"She ditched us " another said. " She'd come back. You know she has no one to call a friend and we're her only hope of surviving in this school", someone, probably a girl said.
"She'd survive,after all she's a warrior angel and a gods forsaken AOM "*
"What's her other name again?" The girl asked.
"Devereux, fucking Susan Devereux", the guy answered.
This was what she was looking for... She ditched her friends and now wants her friendship.
We could be a great match.
They could learn to survive in this freaking school together... She just found a friend.
She smiled.
A warrior friend at that... .
*AOM is short for angel on a mission.
