I rub my eyes. Sunrise already. Feels like only a few seconds ago when I woke Maddi up late at night. I didn't sleep, obviously, but Maddi fell asleep as soon as her head hit the pillow. I stayed up and thought all night. What did he tell me?

I get up and begin to get ready for the day ahead. Maddi wakes up not long after I start packing my bag.

"Morning," she groans.

"Morning Maddi," I say smiling.

"What do you have today?"

"Well I have Sport first, I don't know about you."

"Awe damn. I have Creative Charms."

"You must be in the other Sport class then. What do you have second?" I ask my dormmate.

She consults her timetable. "Demonology."

"Awe damn. I have Spirituality."

"So, I guess I'll see you at lunch?"

"Yeah. See you at lunch."

I walk out of the room and down the hall of the girls' dormitories. I run through the school in order to get to the sporting fields in time for my first class. I sprint through the half empty courtyard towards the eastern field of the academy.

I make it just before class starts.

"Miss Glidesdale," the teacher addresses me, "You're late again."

"Sorry Professor," I apologise.

This is just what happens when your self-conscious about your wing colour and every iso thinks you're evil. You wouldn't understand. That's what I want to say. But I won't. Saying that in front of anyone else wouldn't help my case at all. Yet another normal day here at Featherweight Academy!

~~Le Spicy Time Skip Brought to You by Gay Marriage (finally!)~~

I walk back towards my dorm room to put my books away, then I see Monique getting yelled at by a teacher. I can't quite hear what's going on, but I catch a few sentences.

"... can't believe you would do that! Again!" the teacher yells at the young iso, who puts her arms up in defence.

"Look, Professor, I'm sorry," she says, "I won't do it again."

"Monique, you said that last time, and look where we are now!"

"I know, I'm sorry. It was an accident."

"You don't just accidentally fly to the other side of the kingdom, Monique!"

"What if I sleep flew?"

"You would have had to go to sleep late at noon to fly that far in your sleep! Why did you even go? Your friends and teachers have been worried sick about you!"

"I know but I..."

I walk away before one of them notice me eavesdropping, as much as I would have liked to stay and figure out what the Professor meant by 'the other side of the kingdom'. Did she mean the other side of Aries? Or the human kingdom of Destain? Aries. It must be Aries... right? It's not like Monique to break rules, let alone the law. At least that I know of her.

I reach my dorm and unlock it with the key. Closing the door behind me, I throw my bag onto my bed. I walk up to the mirror to fix my hair, because it got messed up during Sport, when I notice someone in the corner next to the door.

A boy. The same iso from my dream. The one with black hair and two different coloured eyes. Looking at him now, his hair looks more brown than black, and both his eyes are brighter than they looked in the dark room.

His wings are still black though.

Our reflections' eyes meet. He swears under his breath.

"Shit," he whispers, "Guess my hiding place wasn't that good."

"It was a nice try," I say sarcastically, turning to face him, "What are you doing here?"

"I came here to talk to you." He takes a step forward, but I raise my hand, a small blue orb forming in front of it. He stops in his tracks.

"I don't even know your name," I say, not lowering my arm, "What would there be to talk about? I don't even think we're friends!"

He puts a hand to his chest in fake hurt. "How dare you? I. I just- how dare you?" he stammers, also in fake hurt, "How could you say these things? ¿Cómo te atreves a decir?" (Translation: How dare you say?)

I try my best not to laugh... it doesn't work. A smile tugs at my lips. The iso smiles in response.

"See. Please tell me you remember now," he half begs.

"I remember that humour from fourth grade. That's about it," I say.

"Oh wow. Come on!" the iso says sarcastically.

"What's your name?" I ask, lowering my hand slightly.

"Liam."

My hand drops to my side, leading me to clumsily drop the orb. The iso, well Liam, has to dive to catch it before it causes any damage. My eyes are just wide open before I calm down and offer him a hand up.

"Remember me now?" he asks, taking my hand and getting up. The orb dissolves.

"Yeah..." I say, "Yeah. I remember."

He chuckles. "Surprised?"

"Well, duh! I seem to recall your wings being white. Not, freaking black."

"I... used a potion. Well, my parents did." I give him a questioning glance. "My parents have always been evil. I've never really liked that. They gave me a potion to turn my wings white, so I could fit in with all the other kids. Honestly the nicest thing they've ever done. But they told me, when I turned 13, I had to, actually be evil for once. I did, but I never meant anything I did. I managed to ascend to a place of power, so no one questions anything I do."

"So, what school's this 'amulet' in then?"

"It's here... somewhere."

"Figured as much. Considering Professor Azmerelda didn't change her name or anything."

"Wait. Professor Azmerelda has the relic?"

"I don't know. But even if I did, why would I tell you?"

Liam gives me an unamused look. "I literally put my life on the line to get you to the dream realm and tell you a clue."

"Right. What did you even tell me anyways?" I ask.

"You didn't hear me?"

"I was lost in thought, confused and literally every other iso around me was laughing their heads off. Of course I didn't hear you."

"Oh true. Well I said '317'."

"317... 317... I don't—wait..."

"Yeah. That's when they were thinking of making this happen. There's gonna be another meeting tonight saying officially when this is gonna be a thing. It'll be close, but not too far away. The rest of the time will be spent preparing. You can spend that time preparing as well."

"Okay. Thanks, but why are you even telling me this?"

"Well, what else would I do for an old friend?"

I smile at this. He smiles back. There's a brief silence that I break.

"So," I begin, "The group of girls I was standing with were kinda... giggly when you look at us. Any reason why?"

"U-uh... nope!" he half yells, "Nope! No reason at all!"

"Liam... how many girls, a day, do you flirt with?"

"Uh..."

There's a knock on the door.

"Hello? Luna?" that's Maddi's voice. Shoot. "Do you have a boy in there?"

"Uh... crap," I whisper, "No! Liam. Hide. Now."

"Are you sure?~" Maddi sings.

"Yes! I'm sure!"

"Where do I hide?" Liam whisper yells.

"Under the bed! Go!" I whisper yell back.

"Why though?"

"Plot convenience. Now hide!"

"Kay, I'm coming in now!" Maddi calls from the other side of the door.

I turn to see Liam has successfully hidden himself under my bed just as Maddi opens the door to the room. I smile at her while she scans the room.

"Huh," she says finally, "Could have sworn I heard a guy in here with you."

"Uh, nope! You must have been hearing things!" I say.

"Well come on then! Let's go to the dining hall!"

She walks out of the room, but before I follow her, I look under my bed. Liam's gone. With a piece of paper where he was. I take it. It reads;

'Hola Luna. Esta nota está en español por si acaso alguien más la encuentra. Volví a donde están los malvados tipos. En el Reino de los Sueños, llámame Arlen. Así es como todos me conocen.

Más tarde.

Liam.'

I fold the note up and put it in my pocket before following my dormmate to the dining hall for lunch.

*****************

Nope!! I'm not translating the note suckers!!! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA AH *cough cough* ~GASP~ *cough cough cough*

I'm sure you'll be able to figure it out. I mean, I can barely speak español myself and I still can sorta get it. Plus Google Translate's pretty accurate. I checked.
