He Gives Me His Strength
"Ok students, take out your textbooks" at school now, just concentrating on class right now.
"Akashi, please come up," the teacher ordered me.
"Am I in trouble?" I asked her feeling really stressed.
"Prince Zen would like to see you."
"WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATTTTT!!!" The class seems really surprised.
"What for?" I tilted my head carelessly. I don't even know who Prince Zen is.
"Do you even know who he is?"
"Nope and I don't care who or what he is either" I spoke in my normal emotionless voice as I walked out the room towards the office.
I hardly care what the so called Prince thinks about me. He'll think I'm a laughing stock. Oh wait, what did I forget, oh of course, I CAN'T SMILE!
"You must be Akashi."
"Yeah, and?"
"This way please" a man looking like a butler showed me through a well decorated room.
"This is too formal for me," I sighed as I walked towards the light in the middle of the room.
"Zen?" I saw Zen sitting on a throne in front of me.
"How dare you address the prince like that?!" A man standing next to him yelled at me.
"Prince? Wait, you're Prince Zen?" I was so surprised for once in my life.
"Yep," he smiled.
"My apologies!" I kneeled down as quick as I could.
"Akashi, why are you so nervous?" He ran towards me patting my head.
"You're a Prince but my manners were literally unacceptable!"
"An all that time you were worried about not having emotions other than sadness" I looked up at him as he looked at me in the eyes,"you're blushing."
"No I'm not!" I cried looking away from him.
"Sure you're not!" He joked laughing so hard it made me almost feeling quite happy.
"Stop laughing! That's just mean!" I yelled hiding my red face.
"Oops, sorry. I didn't mean that. Anyways Akashi, *lifts my chin bringing me face to face with him*see me at the tree you saved me from around 5 pm tomorrow", he whispered gently in my ear.
After school I walked towards the tree which Zen fell off from. Why was he even there in the first place? I inspected the trees roots finding nothing unusual. I then came across a small hole in the top level of the tree trunk when I looked up. I was curious so I climbed it to take a closer look. I looked inside the hole seeing a passage with a huge sparkling light on the other side. Even though I knew it could be a bad idea to go into something I have no idea about, I stupidly crawled in.
As I was getting closer to the light I realised that the passage way was filled with different types of minerals. It lit up the place. The light led to a door so I turned the knob thinking it was locked but it opened with ease. I peaked inside seeing a room full of books and elixirs. I tiptoed towards one of the shelves and picked up one of the books, these books aren't normal reading books, they're SPELL BOOKS! Picking up one of the potion bottles I read the label which said "Growth Enhancer" whatever that means. I accidentally tripped on one of the tree roots, luckily the potion bottle didn't break. I heard a glass tube wobble above my head but when I looked up a glass bottle fell on my head.
"Huh, where am I?" I rubbed my head seeing myself in some sort of witch's hut full of potions and spell books.
Now I remember. I picked up the glass shard which came from the glass bottle that hit me. The label was "Magic T.S.L.A" what does that mean? I heard the door creak open so I hid behind the table. A boy wearing a black cape and a mask walked in. I just want to go home I closed my eyes. When I opened them, I found myself in my room. That was weird. I wonder what that potion meant. Magic isn't real. I don't have to worry, do I?
5 pm The Next Day
"Akashi, you're here"
"Where would I be then?" I asked him rubbing my head.
"What happened to your head?" He asked seeing I was rubbing it half crying.
"A glass bottle fell on my head and it really hurts. I'm not sure if there's still glass shards in my head", I took out my handkerchief, soaked it with a little water then rubbed my head with it.
"You sure you're ok?" Zen handed me his drink bottle.
"I'm fine, it just feels like knives stabbing my head", I smiled
"Is that so?"
"Umm, I have a question to ask you. Why were you up that tree in the first place?"
