Chapter 2 - the start of mysterious journey

The air was still thick with smoke.

Students whispered nervously, and teachers tried to restore order, but something about the atmosphere felt… different.

Angel stood silently, her heart still racing from what had just happened.

Then—

A shadow passed over the ground.

She looked up.

And froze.

A figure was descending from the sky.

Not falling.

Not jumping.

Descending.

He landed smoothly in the center of the school ground as if gravity itself obeyed him.

Gasps spread across the crowd.

Angel's eyes widened in disbelief.

That's not possible…

She was one of the top students in science and mathematics. She believed in logic, in proof, in reality.

Magic?

Impossible.

And yet…

There he stood.

Dr. Louis.

Students began whispering his name with admiration. Teachers greeted him with respect.

But Angel didn't move.

She just watched.

And that… caught attention.

"Welcome," Dr. Louis said calmly. "I thought I would add something special to your science fair."

Angel frowned slightly and leaned toward Elsa.

"This is a science fair… not a magical fair" she whispered.

Elsa didn't laugh.

"Just watch," she said quietly.

Anyway it going to be bore said angel.

A small stage was arranged.

"I need two volunteers," Dr. Louis announced.

Before anyone else could react—

"Angel."

Her heart skipped.

"And Peter."

Peter walked up beside her, unusually quiet.

"Close your eyes," Dr. Louis said to Angel.

She hesitated… then did it.

"Peter," he continued, "throw the arrow."

"What?!" Peter blinked. "At her?"

"Do it."

The crowd held its breath.

Angel stood still.

Peter threw it.
