“Raven!’Devon snapped

“Hey!”Jinx yelled and they both went to Raven,who laid lifelessly on the ground.

Moon eyes turned normal again and her eyes widened a bit.

“Why did you do that?”Devon frowned, facing Moon.

“What do you mean ,she attacked first just returned what she sent”Moon said naively.

“You should have atleast been gentle,what if she died damnit!”Jinx snapped furiously.

“Ohh….What you weren’t there? You clearly saw I avoided everything,but she tried to hurt me so I returned the favor”Moon scoffed.

“Just stop it,she’s not breathing!”Devon snapped and Moon rolled her eyes.

“Atleast be gentle next time you might hurt someone”Liam said dryly.

“What! You’re blaming me too?”Moon scoffed with a light laugh.

The windows immediately clashed hardly together and everywhere went silent.

“You know what you three like her so much tell her to stay away from me,I’m not that nice yunno and hating on me won’t change anything,just saying so we won’t have this talk in the future!”Moon snapped furiously,and stormed out.

Granger left after her.

Immediately, Devon carried Raven in his arms and vanished from the hall.

“Shouldn’t there be a punishment for her?”Jinx faced the masters,they all still sat quietly but they were obviously still surprised.

“Why because your little birdy lost the fight?”Shadow smirked and Jinx made to attack her but Winter blocked her.

“All of you keep quiet!”Master Lamia snapped.

Everyone sat back gently.

“It was an act of defense so it’s allowed”Master Kai said dryly and the two masters turned to him.

“Never heard of it”Master Wave muttered.

“Take her to the ice room if necessary ,she’ll heal once she’s left there”Master Kai said and walked out.

Master Wave and Lamia followed.

“That was harsh,she shouldn’t have thrown Raven that hard”Wyatt suddenly said.

“Honestly I don’t think it’s her fault,she could have gotten hurt if it hit her anyway”Hermione said.

“But atleast she should have controlled it”Liam scoffed.

“Seriously why are you all being jerky right now? Raven pulled the first shot and Moon could have gotten hurt,did you think about it? You’re all just saying this because you don’t like her but she’s a human too have some heart,yissh!!. And to think I thought you of all people would be reasonable Liam”Winter scoffed and walked out angrily.

Shadow winked at the shocked faces,she also left.

“Wow! Dude,did you offend her or something?”Wyatt chuckled.

Liam fronwed and left the hall.

°
The door to Raven’s room opened and Devon walked in with Raven.

He dropped Raven on the bed and sighed slightly.

He turned to leave when he suddenly felt her hand on his wrist.

“You’re awake?”Devon furrowed his brows and she sat up gently.

“Hey,stay back down”Devon said but she sat still sat up.

“You’re leaving?”Raven muttered softly.

“Yes and you need to rest”Devon said.

“Fine,but don’t leave me alone,just stay here till I wake up, please?”Raven muttered.

“But why,no one’s gonna hurt you here?”Devon said.

“I just don’t like being alone especially when I’m this weak,but if you don’t want to it’s fine,I’ll stay alone”Raven muttered sadly and he sighed.

He sat down beside her and she smiled brightly.

“No one ever listens to me,or even cared about what I say”Raven said softly.

“Well,I am now,so rest”Devon said,she nodded immediately and laid back gently.

Like that she slept off,Devon kept staring silently at her face for a long while.

His hands touched her hair mistakenly and he was about moving back when Raven held him back.

“Don’t stop please,it’s comforting, please?”she pouted sleepily,her eyes still closed.

He said nothing,his hands patting her hair gently.

“Don’t leave me please,just stay here…”she mumbled in sleep and he sighed softly.

•Master Kai’s hall•
•>><<•
“Master Kai you aren’t talking,you know its her,our search has stopped finally but you’ve quite”Master Lamia said.

“I guess he’s just shocked? I didn’t expect it to be her”Master Wave said.

“I knew she was the one the day she appeared in here,I felt her energy but I wanted to be sure”Master Kai said.

“And that’s why you chose her to fight Raven?”Master Wave smiled.

“So what’s next? We never actually planned what will happen once we found her”Lamia said.

“We protect her from what’s coming and have the other students on her side, she’ll need all the support”Master Kai sighed.

“You look worried, anything we don’t know?”Wave said.

“You two prepare to strengthen the shields tonight,I need sometime to think”Master Kai said simply.

They nodded and left.

“Can’t believe they all blamed her, bunch of jerks!”Winter snapped raging towards the training hall.

“Chill Winne,you already gave them a lot to chew,you should have seen Liam’s face”Shadow laughed.

Winter eyes suddenly widened,she actually did that?!!

“Was I too harsh? Maybe I was but I can’t stand it when they all act that way,they were all mean. When we first got here only you and Moon wanted to talk to me they were all cold and they’re still doing it now”Winter pouted and Shadow chuckled.

“As long as we’ve got eachothers backs here, we’ll be fine,we need to look for Moon though she seemed pretty sad”Shadow said.

“Yeah,let’s do that”Winter said and they changed their direction.

|•Library•|
Moon’s face was dead cold as she walked down the hall to the library,she entered since the door was opened and met the old lady climbing down a ladder,her leg slipped a bit and she began falling____

Moon’s eye’s widened,she quickly rushed to her and before she could meet with the ground,moon quickly raised her palms and the lady stood safely.

“Ma’am are you okay? You’re too old to be climbing up such a height,you could have gotten hurt”Moon scolded, checking the woman out.

The old lady smiled and held her cheeks.

“Young one you shouldn’t be scolding me this is my job and I’ve been doing it for years just to see you,so please let me do my job”the old lady said.

“You’re like my grandma I can’t let you do this,I’ll do it myself”Moon smiled,she bonded up her hair immediately and began pulling the lady to a seat.

“Stay here,you can direct we on where each fallen books should go,that way you’ll be satisfied with my work”Moon winked,the woman smiled even more.

“Such a good girl, she got hurt while coming here but her smiles still hides it all”The lady said.

Moon grabbed the dusters on the floor and began cleaning the shelf’s neatly.

Hours later__

She dropped the dusters after a long while of cleaning and began placing the books as directed by the old lady.

“You’re doing it even better than I would”the lady smiled.

“I told you,I’m an expert”Moon winked.

She placed two more books on the shelf and turned to the other three on the floor,she picked them easily and pushed them in their places.

She moved to the next shelf,her hand accidentally brushed a particular book and it glowed a little but she didn’t notice.

The old lady stood slowly and immediately went to take the book.

Moon faced her with a frown.

“I told you to seat”Moon said and stared down at the book.

“I’m sure you’ll love this, it’ll tell you everything you need to know about,who you are and also about the spirit bind”the old lady said, giving the book to her.

“But I thought you said the bond never existed till we created it,so how can there already be a book about it?”Moon muttered.

Moon took the book slowly,it’s obviously old enough to be a decades ago piece,but it still looked new,the moon inscription on the cover got her attention,it’s exactly like her’s no difference it’s kinda like it just copied it.

She got even more curious and opened it slowly.

“It’s blank?!…”Moon furrowed her brows.

“There’s nothing inside”Moon asked.

“That you have to figure out,it’s been blank for decades no one knows what’s inside,the dark queen once got her hand on it but Master Kai got it back,I kept it safe here ever since then, hoping to give you myself”the lady said,Moon nodded.

“Someone has been busy,I’ve been looking everywhere for you”Granger voice suddenly came from the entrance,the two turned to him.

“I’m beginning to think you’re stalking me”Moon smirked.

“Can’t deny that”he said and she scoffed.

“You two…..?”the lady said and their eyes immediately widened.

“No way him? No”Moon said and the lady laughed.

“Why are you here first my room now here?”Moon asked, frowning slightly.

“You walked out of the training hall angrily so I thought maybe….”

“I’d be crying, I’ve never done that before don’t know how it feels,they won’t be the first to make me do it”Moon muttered.

“Why don’t we sneak out,I can at least lighten your mood?”Granger shrugged.

“What? Are you crazy?”Moon snapped.

“It’s fine little one,you’ve been walking all day,you need the rest, I’ll take care of the rest”old lady said

“And he looks like a good boy”the lady said and Granger smiled out his dimples.

“Your dreams,I’ll go with you just this once and only because she asked”Moon muttered and grabbed his hand.

They dissapered immediately.

☯︎Inside the training room><
Hermione and Liam were training,their swords clashing violently,making screeching sounds.

Hermione pushed his sword forward taking charge of Liam’s,he got the upper hand and tossed his sword to the ground.

The third time now.

“Hey dude! You’re barely fighting back, you’re not still thinking of what Winter said right?”Hermione said picking up the sword,he handed it to Liam.

Liam scoffed inwardly,he hit his sword violently on Hermione and he moved back immediately dodging the hit.

“Not good at sword fights,why would what she said affect me?”Liam frowned deeply, twisting their swords, Hermione’s hand turned as a result and his sword fell to the ground.

“I just don’t like Moon,and now her too”Liam said.

“Your face says otherwise”Hermione mumbled, Liam nearly raised the sword to hit him,but Devon walked in and they turned to him.

“How is she?”Hermione asked immediately.

“She fell asleep already,left her in her room”Devon said simply and grabbed a sword.

“Wanna fight?”Liam smiled and Devon nodded.

“You two can go for this round,I’m sitting it out”Hermione raised his hands and immediately went to sit on a bench.

Liam and Devon began immediately and few minutes later Liam sword laid helplessly on the ground.

“Okay,you won”Liam said breathing out heavily.

Devon smirked and began walking to were Hermione sat,Liam smirked also and grabbed his fallen sword immediately,he rushed to Devon to attack.

Devon was quicker,he turned quickly and their swords clashed but Liam’s slit his shoulder and the sword dropped.

“Argghh! That was cheating”Devon snapped.

“Sorry,my bad”Liam raised his hands, smiling awkwardly.

“You’re bleeding alot”Hermione said.

Devon eyes suddenly widened,if he was bleeding this much then…..

He dissapered from their sight and they exchanged glances.

°
Moon appeared back with Granger and she’s laughing loudly,he’s been saying jokes since they left and he’s still at it.

“Argghh!!”she spat, suddenly grabbing her bleeding arm.

“Moon are you okay?”Granger asked,she brought the hand down and Granger’s eyes widened.

She kept staring at the bloody flow, rolling down her dress.

Devon walked outside the academy that instant,he’s actually checked everywhere there is and he came here next.

“Moon?!”Devon said and immediately went to her.

Granger frowned immediately.

“As you can see she’s bleeding and needs help”Granger said and grabbed Moon’s hand,he began walking away when Devon suddenly held her other hand and she turned sharply to him.

Granger stared down the connected hands and Moon stared up at Devon,who had a firm look.

“The only thing she needs is me”Devon said possessively.

“What!”Moon snapped.

“You must be crazy to think I’d let your blood touch me again,your little birdy is inside she’s probably waiting for you,you shouldn’t be with the one that tried to ki|| her”Moon said.

“What are you saying right now? You’re just being stubborn,you just have to make me talk a lot,you know only my blood can heal you”Devon scoffed.

“If that’s the only option on earth,I’d rather let it rot than let your blood touch me. Devil_____”Moon said and pulled Granger closer.

“C’mon, I’ll need only your help,no….one… else’s”Moon said clearly and they both left together.

Devon kept standing there,motionless,he moved back slowly and finally let out a dry chuckle. “Seriously?”
