Chapter 2 - going to Alph's Academy

Inside a not-too-large room, that has a wardrobe beside the door, a bed at the extreme end of the room that contained a sleeping boy that was clad in a white singlet, black shorts, and has white hair, he was extremely gorgeous, even with his eyes closed. There was a wooden table that was well painted with a laptop on it just beside the bed, and a shoe rack next to the wardrobe.

The boy on the bed, began levitating and emitting dark aura from his body.

"Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh," a mighty scream escaped his mouth, the entire room began to tremble violently, and cracks appeared on the wall due to the sheer power and pressure coming from him.

A woman appeared beside him and touched his forehead. He fell back on the bed going back to sleep. The woman who just entered the room, look at him as he went back to sleep peacefully, without any hindrance. She too has white hair and grey eyes, thin red lips and was very beautiful. She and the boy are so identical, which only means one thing.

"Dante, wake up, wake up Dante," she said with a very soft and gentle voice as she taped him, pulling him out of his slumber.

Dante's eyes twitch as they opened, only to see someone staring at him.

"Good morning Mom," he said as lifted his upper body to sit on his bed.

"Morning, boy," she said with a warm and sat on the bed. "Tell me about it," she said and Dante looked at her fully aware of what she was asking of him, so he started narrating.

~~~~~~~~~~

After Dante had finished narrating the entire dream, his mother's face went blank, devoid of expression as she stared at the wall.

"That wasn't just a dream," she said, turning back to Dante. "Look at your body, the tattoos are very visible," she said pointing at him.

Dante looked at his body, and fear immediately gripped him as a bead of sweat ran down his face. From his right leg, to his left hand, and his forehead towards his right eye.

"Don't worry, I can help you fix it," she said as she looked at him, clearly agitated. She held his head and said a few words, not in English though. The tattoos began to fade and then completely disappeared. Dante looked at his body and saw that the tattoos weren't there anymore.

His Mom stood up and turned around facing the exit.

" Mom, did you just performed magic?"his curiosity kicked the question of him. Though he wanted to ask other questions like, " if it wasn't a dream, then, what was it?" In fact that was the question he wanted to ask. But what his Mom just did, made him ask that question.

" Mom, did you just.....,"

~~~~~~~~~~

In the sitting room, a knock was heard coming from the exit door. A woman who just happened to be sitting on one of the couches, answered the door. When she opened it, behind the door was man clad in white uniform, and he had a well trimmed beard, making him look quite handsome.

The woman immediately recognized the man and told him to come inside and sit down, and he did just that. She went into the kitchen and came back with a tea cup, serving him tea.

"Thank you," the man said as he took a sip enjoying it's wonderful taste.

"I'll go and fetch them," she said as she left.

"Hana, Baloy, Bella, Dabi, Dante, come down here, the driver is here, don't waste any more time." As soon as she finished her statement, she saw three girls walking down the stairs with luggages, and behind them, was a boy.

" We're ready," the boy said, his name was Dabi. He has jet black spiky hair, brown eyes, and was very cute.

"And Dante?" She asked, " he's coming," Dabi said.

Soon Dante was walking down the stairs.

~~~~~~~~~~

"Mom, did you Just....," Dante didn't complete the question this time as he gulped.

"Yes, I just performed magic," his mom replied still facing the door. "I thought magic was....w.....," he stammered trying to complete his statement as tears filled his eyes.

"Don't worry about it," She said as turned to him, her face still remained blank, with no expression.

"The same magic that kil.....," he got interrupted as his mom hugged him.

"I promise that I'll explain, I'm sorry, okay. I'll explain as soon as you come back on Saturday, please don't cry," she said as she broke the hug and left the room.

" The driver has arrived, finish up and come down stairs," she added as she shut the door behind.

Dante sat on the bed, looking at the door as tears ran down his face.

~~~~~~~~~~

With all of them complete in the sitting room, they were all ready to go the academy.

"Okay let's go," the driver said as he walked towards the exit first before anyone else.

Everyone saw the change in Dante's mood, but none of them asked him about it. Not that they could not ask him, but because they won't be able to get a word out of him when he has mood swings.

After they bid farewell to their parents, and began walking towards the exit, Dante's mom hugged him.

"I'm sorry, okay. I promise I'll explain it to you when you return," she broke the hug and Dante went after the others.

Just outside the house, there was a very large bus that red and white patterns all over it, the bus looked like it could accommodate one hundred students.

While walking towards the bus, Dante looked back saw his mom, looking at him and she waved at him. They all entered the bus, while walking in the bus looking for a suitable place to sit, all eyes were fixated on them, almost all the girls had their eyes on Dante, admiring his beauty, some of them were looking at Dabi but more of them were looking at Dante. The guys had their eyes on the three girls. They were looking for a place to sit and they were all planning to sit together, but at the end, they got separated. Dante sat next to a girl with yellow hair, yellow with a round face, she was cute. When Dante sat next to her, She resisted the urge to say "yay."

"Settle down everyone, I'm about to move," the driver said as he started the bus. Their to the academy started.
