Island some what looks like this. Imagine buildings in it. Basically this place is surrounded by water and then when you step into the Island it is covered with dense forest around. Only one path is free or clear which goes to the administration building. Not everyone can go, only those who have permission can go. 

________________________________________________________________________________

It was not a cruise just a boat and in that I travelled for a day to reach my destination.  What caught my attention was "EXOUSIA SCHOOL OF EXCELLENCE" and nothing was visible past that.

"Here is your destination. Get down."

My imagination is generally rich so I prefer reading a fiction novel and above all apocalypse, this place somehow reminds me of bases mentioned in such novels. A 10 meter wall tough to break fences above it, in short difficult for a human to enter.

"Show me the pass and get in."

"Pass... I have this." I show him the letter Zyan gave me and they let me in. Once I went in there were motorcycles, bicycles, buses, etc. They gave a bicycle and we went on a trip. Seriously it was a trip, from the main gate to enter administrative office it took a lot of time and energy.

Inside was a long but narrow passage like maze, the route was difficult to remember not that I want to.

"Good Morning Sir!! A new girl came with a letter from assassins." Assassins??! Is he talking about Nael and others?

"Come in" came a husky reply. Once I went in, I met with three faces sitting across discussing something. I was actually dying to know what they were taking about; I'm a curious person. I love those which are covert they feel like a puzzle and I love solving puzzles. For solving a puzzle every bit of information is precious, so my eyes are sharp. I observe my surroundings thoroughly keeping every piece of information including the coordinates of where furniture is kept respectively. I was bought up like that and will never change.

First to catch my eye was a man, looks same as my age but a ferocious aura comes out of him. Pale skin, tall enough about 190 cm, a cold vibe and difficult to approach. In his back there are two people also young a girl and a boy but neither looks amiable.

Next was a woman, maybe around 45. Delicate skin, round face, white like a jade, plump lips. Her looks are good enough to enter into entertainment industry, it's a loss. But looks deceive people, why? In that short time, she showed me different temperaments of her. First, she looked amiable such that forces people to share their concerns, next she looked trustable enough for people to share secrets. In this world we should be vary of such not those who look cold. This is a fact even most people accept you know the famous saying 'Don't judge a book by its cover'. I would rather make amends with that tsundere that this lady. HMM..

Then it was another man. His temperament is different from tsundere, it was like a noble person, elegant and charming. If Nael was a Prince then this person is the King. I think he is an American like me. AH.. the feel of seeing same countrymen, hey you can't fight with me. Because though I'm an American, me and my grandfather stayed in a town, cut it, a village in Europe . 

From the day I started this journey, I met different people from France, Asian Countries after a long journey I met an American.

"Hello! Welcome to EXOUSIA SCHOOL OF EXCELLENCE, you are?" Even his words are grand enough. Is this his kingdom? And am I a guest here?

"Hello sir, my good name is Willow Tomlinson. I was dropped here by Zyan and his friends. From their words, they think I bear an 'Exousia' named 'Pagos'."

At that moment I saw surprise in their eyes. What am I curious about? Is that astonishment for my 'Exousia' or me? I don't think Pagos is rear. Why do I feel like it is not because my 'Exousia' but because of me to be more precise my name? Now, this is an interesting conclusion.

"Hello, Willow! So, I know it is rude but can you show us your Exousia."

I expected that. Welcome everyone to the 'Magic Show' by Willow. The first act starts in a minute, please make sure to put on seat belts and take popcorn because from here ride is not easy.

This time I showed something different than ice shield. Well, in fact I showed the process. Small snowflakes yet large enough to distinguish them, not many but enough to make a shield for one person. The flakes one by one combined to make a shield, it was slow but beautiful and strong.

OK...people anyone have questions, I am privileged to answer them. But first I will answer to the question in your thoughts. Why I did such an arduous task of showing the process? To show that my Exousia is beautiful. Bullshit.... I did because... wait for some time. Don't worry ladies and gentlemen, you will get your answers by the end of first act.

BAAM...BAAM...

"Willow, have a seat. Wait for some time. Can you?" This lady, even are words are twisted like her. It is an order, what is the need show it as a request. HMM.. I hate such tongue twisters.

"Sure mam"

"Bryce, I would love if you call President of Student council" There she goes again. Wow! On the second note I admire. You know it is not easy to make orders such that outsiders think it as a request but the one who received it knows it is an order. By the way Bryce is a nice name, isn't it?

After some time, I saw a girl, cut it, a lady, cool and calm but has a presence which people can't overlook. Her beauty was eye catching, her was like as if she was on a ramp that much presence she had. She is tall about 165 cm, her skin tone is somewhat similar to mine olive. Maybe this is the first time i'm seeing a lady having a sharp jaw cut.  But I feel I'm nowhere less.

I'm not delicate like most girls, my body is tamed, my height is long enough than the average height of girls '174 cm', though my skin not white like jade it also not dark, its olive. One look people cannot see muscles which are present but if I show off, I'm sure that I can attract more attention than that beauty. Because my body is curved enough to make boys head over heels. Oh... a Note :- I'm not a narcissist, if I am I would love to show off. Also, I didn't do any diets for information, it's just that my body is trained like that of athletes.

"Pardon me!! Since our President went on a mission. I Akira Vice president of Student council has come."

"No problem, Willow this is Akira. Akira that is Willow."

"Hello!! Akira Khan"

"Hello!! Willow Tomlinson" then as usual a handshake.

"Willow, can you wait outside. There are some works to be given to Ms. Akira later she would show you around."

There she goes. Not only her words I even started to hate her smile and from then I kept distance from her. Such people are influential and not good for health. I went out and waited.

Ladies and gentlemen now let's hear the act1. Yes, we are going to hear. A brief handshake can give an earphone as receiver to hear and where is antenna. Simple with Akira. Having a long hair is blessing you see no one knows that I have an earpiece. I love bugs.

"So, what are we going to do?" came a voice sweet but irritating

"What do you mean by that?"

"I mean where should we put her?"

"I want her." It was a low magnetic voice.

"What do you mean Marva?" oh this is my favorite king. Marva?? Oh tsundere

"Her 'Exousia' is not 'Pagos', you know that it is 'Chioni'."

What is Chioni? It means snow. Ice and Snow, there isn't much difference that is what most people think. It is true in human world but in our world...

"Chioni may not look effective but if taught properly, it is destructive. She will be useful in future for defense. It is a strong 'Exousia', it is both offensive and defensive power. It is thousand times effective than Pagos. There aren't many people we can count in hands."

"There isn't a discussion on this, she will be under my control. This is final." See I said he is a king ... but I wanted to be with that tsrundere. He is interesting, I think he takes care of defensive. Anyway, as he said 'Chioni', many don't have it maybe around 15.

Why I showed my true power? Because I wanted to be part of defense team. How I know? Answer for yourselves.

And like this act 1 came to an end. Acts come and go rarely but remember my words and  every action are to be noted.
