Marik hurried down the halls of his school, soaking wet. It was pouring down rain outside and he had got caught in the middle of it. He had once again overslept and had to rush this morning. He stopped outside his first period classroom. He performed a quick spell on himself, drying his uniform. His silver hair was now soft and dry and he went in the room. He looked around, and saw Mrs.Holland, his teacher, had fallen asleep at her desk. The class snickered as he quietly snuck to his chair. He got to his desk, and stopped when he saw a small red orb hovering over his desk. A Red Bomb. It turned to him, recognized him, and turned a deep blue. Marik leapt back as it detonated. BOOM!!!!
Mrs.Holland leapt to her feet."AHA! I knew you were late!"She exclaimed happily.
"ARE YOU PSYCHO?! YOU COULD HAVE HURT ME!!"Marik shouted.
"Be on time to class then!"
His best friend stepped forward."It is against the rules to have explosive Mrs.Holland."
"Uhhh, right. Well, we'll keep it hush hush."She said nervously.
The class eyed her."No test on Friday!"She said, and the class cheered.
With a wave of her hand, Mrs.Holland repaired Marik's desk. He sat down beside his friend, Railoen, and sighed. This school was crazy. A blank peice of paper fluttered on to his desk. Marik stared at it, and words began to write themselves.
Want to go to Music Mind after school? Dark Magician released their new album.
Marik looked Railoen and nodded. He loved Dark Magician, the most popular rock band out. The lead singer, Vandrian Winter, was one of the last of his clan. He had deep amber eyes and fire red hair. He was a member of the legendary Fire Sirens. Their race was now dying out, but it didn't stop Vandrian Winter from being a idol!
"Pay attention!"Mrs.Holland snapped.
Marik rolled his eyes took out his Magical History book. He opened it up and watched as the pictures moved, reacting scenes of famous battles and such. Mrs.Holland had created 3-d images of their latest lesson, the Battle of Gondra, the first war against the Lycans. The class drug by slowly. Finally, the break bell rang and every one grabbed their lunches and went outside and sat with their friends to eat. Marik and Railoen joined Levandra, a girl with long light blue hair, silver eyes and pointed ears(she is a Prexvas, a water demon), and began to eat.
"So, how's your day be Levandra?"Marik asked.
"It has been fine so far. I have asked the Principal to change our uniforms but still he refuses."
"Their not so bad."Railoen said.
The White Knight Academy of Magic had seperate uniforms. The girls uniforms were snow white with black trim and the school emblem on the jacket and black ties. The boys uniforms were black with white trim and white ties, along with the emblem on the jacket.
"Are we going to study after school together as planned?"She asked.
"Sudy? Forf fwhat?"Railoen asked through a mouthful of food.
"Our midterms! They are a mere three months away!"Levandra exclaimed, a look of disgust on her face.
Railoen swallowed."Oh wow. Ninty days away. I'm sure we can skip one day."He said.
"For what, may I ask?"
"The new Dark Magician album is out,"Marik cut in."Please Levandra. Just this once, we'll study tomorrow, I promise."
"I am not sure if that is a good idea."
"Come on Levandra."Marik begged.
"Very well then. We start tomorrow."She smiled.
Suddenly, Linra, a classmate of theirs, ran up."Have you heard!?"Her face was red with excitement.
"No, what is it?"Levandra asked calmly.
"Dark Magician is coming to Jancet to perform their new album!"
Railoen dropped his sandwhich."No way. That can't be true!"
"It is! I'm so excited!"Linra squealed.
"This is so awesome! When are they coming?"Marik asked.
"May twenty-second."
"Wait,"Marik thought a moment."Isn't that..."
"The day before our midterms."Levandra finished.
Railoen groaned."You have got to be kidding me! We'll never get to go!"
"Maybe we can catch an aftershow."Marik suggested.
"No, there won't be one."Linra said miserably. She plopped besie them."I can't believe it. I didn't realize the show was the day before our midterms. Oh, and it's supposed to be the best one ever! The band is going to invite people onstage to play with them."
Railoen grabbed Marik's arm."Marik, we have got to go to this show. Think of something. You're a c-level sorcerer. You have got to get us in there."
"Absolutely not."Levandra snapped. She stood and brushed off her uniform." I won't be here for midterms, due to a clan meeting, but you guys can not go to that show."She fixed her silver eyes on Marik."Promise me. If you guys get in to trouble, it will be a disgrace to your families."
Marik looked from Levandra to Railoen."Alright,"He sighed."We'll stay here."
Railoen groaned and Levandra smiled sweetly at him. She turned to the school and went back to class with Linra. Railoen didn't say anything as they followed suit and returned to class. Mrs.Holland had turned her once blond hair a white. She was a strange teacher and all the students tried to guess her age. She looked like she was twenty, but was much much older. She claimed to be over one-hundred.
"For your listening enjoyment, I made a trip to the music store over lunch."
"You can't do that!"Kanji said. He was the class president."If keep up this behavior, i'll be forced to report you."
"Okay okay."Mrs.Holland sighed. She went to her computer(actually a floating sreen) and inserted a shiny red disc. After a few seconds, heavy rock thudded out. "Yippeee!"Mrs.Holland schreeched.
Marik had at once recognized it. Dark Magician! He listened intently as Vandrian Winter began to sing the song, Lonely Shadows.
Icy breath against my neck, death is creeping up on me.
Can't escape her death hold, no way to get free.
Her lonely shadow follows me around,
a sickening imprint on the ground.
Lonely shadows like living ghosts
Grave robbong souls who steal the most
The very life from your lips
reality holds you no more, you slip.
"Mrs.Holland, this music is inappropriate for the class!"Kanji objected.
"Hush hush,"Mrs.Holland waved her hand."This is a good song."
Kanji could not distract Mrs.Holland from the hold of Dark Magician's pounding music. The rest of class listened as if in a trance. Marik didn't even notice the bell rang for the end of the day. He was brought out of his trance by Railoen, who looked at him with a grin.
"That cds been playing on repeat for a whole two periods. It's time to head to the Music Mind!"
