I'm going to be late!!! I was skating as fast as I could towards the assembly hall.  Ellie, Rose, or Kylie, I will get you for this, just you wait.  You knew how nervous I am, and now you decide to allow me to sleep in.  If my internal clock didn't kick in out of panic, I wouldn't even be awake.  My god, only thinking about giving this speech is making my stomach queasy.  I really want to get to the bottom of who made me the speaker, but I'm afraid that mom is behind this.

What should I do, I'm now late and my speaking time is soon?  Maybe I should just skate straight to the front stage.  Brain, I need you right now, even if you can't help for the rest of the week, work for right now.  Yes, that will work.  I grinned deviously to myself as I prepared some magic.

You wanted to make it worse for me, so just how spectacular of an entrance can I make.  I've stopped caring about being discrete anymore, but only means I'm pissing off people.  Compared to what I went through this summer, pissing people off is far easier on me.  

Ok, plan start.  

I entered the auditorium by opening the large door, I made an ice path above everyone.  Then I created many vines around the stage in a circular path downward from the ice path.  This caused a large disturbance and I'm quite glad for deciding to be in the air, no one staring straight at me right now.  As I got to the connecting of nature and ice paths, the ice path dissipated into ice flakes and scattered around.  I set the vines on fire so they would disappear by the time I got on stage.

Good job little brain, if you can't beat them, join them.  I am as much an oddity as Ellie and mom so might as well act like it if I'm forced to.  When I faced the audience, Ellie, Rose, and Kylie were all together in the front row.  Reorganizing myself, I sent them a quick glare before giving a good smile.  I've never been good at presenting and usually get extremely nervous.  Right now I've already gone against what I want so much, might as well go all the way.  Later I will regret this so much though.

I addressed the awestruck audience, "Welcome to the start of the school year, my name is Alexandra Embers.  I will be on the council representing the freshmen this year."

My inner voice yelled Why am I the one you voted?  Out of the side of my vision, I saw the headmaster looking at me like he'd seen a ghost.

I gave a smile while continuing, "I am more known as Ally by most people.  As you may have noted, I am late to my own introduction.  I would love to tell you all why that is so, my friends and maid decided it was the perfect time to pull a prank on me."

As I gave them a glance, they smiled back.  I just realized I got played.  While mentally reprimanding myself, I said, "If anybody needs help you can try to find me or another council member.  I hope this year will be wonderful for you all."

With a graceful manner, I walked down from the stage and went to sit by Rose.  When I got there, I whispered, "You all did this so I wouldn't be able to feel nervous, I feel played and fairly predictable."

The headmaster continued with his speech, "Thank you, Alexandra, for your spectacular entrance and speech."

I tuned him out when Rose whispered into my ear, "You should know by now that sometimes exploiting your flaws give better results.  You have one that lets you be able to do far more than you would allow yourself otherwise."

I hope that they don't find a reason to exploit my mind that way again for a while.  Coming to terms with killing was hard, this is much easier, but worries are human nature.  I am just the type who worries too much about what I have to do.  And large groups of people don’t make it easier.

After the headmaster finished giving his speech, the freshmen teachers then introduced themselves.  After that, they released us.

As we left the auditorium, I saw Kylie looking at Tristan from a distance away.  From what Rose told me, Kylie is very much in love or infatuated with Tristan.  I think this annoys her brother because sometimes he will try to get her attention.  This summer I finally finished all the presents that I will give all my friends.  I made Tristan and Kylie matching gravity manipulating swords, I blame Rose for giving me the idea of matching swords.  The colors are different, though, Kylie's sword has a purple hilt and Tristan's sword got a gold hilt.  

I finally finished making self-retrieving arrows for Rose.  Hopefully, they are useful.  I think that a never-ending supply of arrows is very useful.  It can penetrate an animal, killing it, before spatially transporting through a dimension back to the arrow holder.

Kade's halberd was weird to imagine of an improvement for; gravity manipulation was not exactly ideal.  So I ended up only getting him a new halberd with a standard advanced enchantment instead.  

Ever since I looked at my status, like halfway through the summer, I have been researching history about the chaos god.  When I first saw the title "Chaos God's Reality Show" I went through an overwhelming urge to hit him.  When I calmed down enough to view what it means, I felt slightly better.  Only because it means I have his attention.

Chaos God's Reality Show:  Your life is observed for entertainment by the chaos god (Any nudity has been censored from him).

I was glad the system is being kind, it also means I got his attention.  Right after I finished reading, another message popped up, which made me want to punch him again.

Message From Chaos God:  It seems my chosen's life is getting interesting.  Your doings have annoyed quite a few gods, which if funny to me.  Keep me entertained little one.

When I actually meet him, I will punch him.  It might do absolutely nothing, but at least it will make me feel better than being looked at like a pawn.  I would rather be a rook or something else, just not a pawn.  

The other title was even more ominous.  Time Bomb, it sounds sinister and I don't want it.  To be completely honest, it is correct, but that doesn't make it better.

Time Bomb:  Depending on the situation, an explosive reaction may take place, bottling up emotions leads to larger outbursts.

Who said they could classify my personality as a title.  This is not right and I am not sure whom to blame... I could blame myself, but why would I do that.  It is so much better to push it onto the chaos god or the system.

I should ask Reina if her class pushed her into being a council member during her freshman year.  Our group arrived at the classroom, which broke me out of my thoughts.  We most likely wouldn't be learning anything today, but I guess Ellie would get mad if I skipped my first classes of the year.

This year I am learning about the different cultures for when I travel.  There is no need to learn another language because almost all races use the common language... other than the fairies.  Looking at you Tina.  I'm still bitter about that.

I get to learn laws of the different kingdoms and empires as well.  They will teach mostly the common ones, including most of the laws that need to watch out for.

I'm going to the advanced classes for water and nature magic, the intermediate class for fire, and keeping my class with teacher.  At least this year it should be more interesting to learn since I am not in a class learning almost nothing.  They may even compare to what mom, dad, Ellie, and Tina teach me.

Calm down Ally, this is just the start of the semester.  Remember that mom forced you to take swordsmanship classes.  That thought made me come back down to earth, damn swordsmanship.  I guess duels will start becoming a big deal this year, and maybe a few sports.
