Skin Splitting

                

     Just like his dream he walked around the corner. The clean cut man was standing by the large door and every single teacher around him. His combed back black hair glistened in the moon light. The man pulled a blade out of the surface of his palm.

     “I’ll ask you one more time. Where’s the sword of Kline?” he said calmly.

     “Like we told you, it’s not here, Naris.” Mr. Сд™иг said. Large nails were outstretching from his fingers.

      “I know it’s here and I’ll get it if I have to kill every one of you.” With lightning speed he slipped behind Madam Lunsa and drew the blade across her shoulder. Standing back he then brought the blade to his mouth and licked it.

     Before Jesik could try to make sense of what was going on the man brew the blade upward above Madam Lunsa-just like his dream.

     “No!” He screamed.

     The room fell silent and dozens of eyes turned to him. What was happening? His heart was pounding and his breathing was heavy.

    “Jesik, what are you doing out of bed?!” Mr. Сд™иг asked.

    “Yes, indeed. It is way past your bedtime.” Naris asked lowering his blade. “First year? What’s your crest?” When he didn’t reply Naris continued, “This is the best you’ve got?! An unplacables?!” he addressed the silent room.

     “Leave, Now!” A teacher, whom Jesik didn’t know, said.

     “Or what? You’ll make me leave?” Naris, chuckling, brought the blade up again, over Mr. Сд™иг this time.

     “I said NO!” Jesik released the barrier between him and his powers. He had to stop him. Jesik felt the skin on his back split open and his powers rip through. He pushed with all his might towards the man, the way the girl pushed his powers back inside him, but he did it with hate.

    Naris went flying and hit the door with a large thud. He got up as if it hadn’t happened.

     “Did Jesik just hit puberty? Bravo!” He cracked his neck. “But you’ll have to do better than that?”

     Naris opened his firsts to reveal a large flame growing bigger by the second. He pulled back arm and sent the fire ball soaring in Jesik’s direction. Before it could get close to him Mr. Сд™иг jumped in the way, knocking him to the ground, clutching his burns.

     It was his fault. Anger boiled in his blood. He could hear Madam Siena’s words in his head, “Don’t fight it. Take flight Jesik”.

    The powers coming out of his back stretched in fury. He was unable to hold back. Fire sparked from his left hand, blue lighting bolts from his right, and flung them forward so fast he couldn’t see his own hands.

     Naris flung backwards so hard and fast that he broke the enormous twenty foot door. He stood, examined Jesik with wide curious eyes, smirked, and disappeared. No one moved but Jesik, who collapsed to the floor.
