"You thought you had friends ?"

Mirae sat eating her breakfast silently. Her father had just returned home. He is usually pretty busy. "화가 나나요? 미래씨, 어머니께 화내시면 안 돼요. 그녀는 단지 걱정하고 있을 뿐이에요." (Angry ? You shouldn't be angry with your mother, Mirae. She is just worried.) Mirae obviously didn't believe this statement. "Worried ? She isn't worried about me. My mother is terrified of me & wants to contain me in any way she can." Her father was aware his daughter probably felt forced & annoyed by the ordeal of yesterday.

It wasn't long before Mirae excused herself. Mirae went to meet up with her friends. The conversation started casual. "She took you to see Dr. Jeong ?" Mirae pushed aside being upset for the time being. She knew her friends were most likely worried. Or she hoped that they were. "She did. It made me feel--" One of her friends cut her off with a chuckle. "It made you feel weak, didn't it ? Like a freak, perhaps." 

Mirae was shocked to hear this, let alone get this reaction of of her friends. "I am neither of those things ! How can you say that ?!" The girl didn't bother batting an eyelash as she pointed at Mirae. Her eyes covered in a blue glimmer. In fact, all of her friends hands were shrouded in a blue glimmer. It was magic. The one who initially called Mirae out was none other than Song Miyeon. Miyeon was a magic prodigy & daughter to a councilor. "하지만 당신은 그 소녀를 다치게 했어요, 당신의 반 친구. 누가 당신이 더 많은 사람들을 다치게 할 수 없고, 몇 개 이상의 뼈를 부러뜨릴 수 있습니까? 츠크, 마녀라 그래요? 당신은 그런 거창한 칭호를 받을 자격도 없어요." (You hurt that girl though, your classmate. Who says you aren't capable of hurting more people & breaking more than a few bones ? Tsk, you call yourself a witch ? You aren't even worthy of a title as grand as that.) Miyeon wasn't stating what she was out of privilege as a councilor' daughter. She was stating this to Mirae out of the unofficial ranks & expectations of those who possess magical abilities. 

Mirae felt as if her blood was boiling. Like she was growing extremely hot with rage. She began to space out somewhat & clutch her head in pain. "Shut up ! You're liars ! Traitors ! I've never hurt anyone !" Had she really not been aware of what her ability caused ? Miyeon looked at the faces of the girls around them. Their inner circle. She had a choice here. Their hands still glowing with magic...

Miyeon took an advantage. "Now !" Time seemed to stop still as a giant burst of magic hit Mirae from the girls around her. There was four other girls, including Miyeon. The magic burst out in a star formation. Mirae had lifted her head at the wrong moment. The magic struck her, rendering her unconscious. 

A few hours later she woke up in her bed. How did she get home ? How long was she asleep ? "You took quite the blast there, M." Mirae looked to her right finding a boy with black long hair & blonde highlights. "Who are you ? Why are you here ?" The boy gave a sinister smirk, "Beomgyu. I'm Beomgyu." He answered one of her questions at least.

But what did this mean ?
