I do not know how to put what was going on into proper words. I was walking to my class after coming back from the bathroom when I was suddenly ran into at high speed. The person who ran into me was a half-elf who was not watching his path.
"Sorry."
Half-elves, I remember that I called them halfies when I was younger.
"Wait what?"
Before I could say anything the halfie had already helped me up and sat me down on a bench on the hallway.
"Are you okay, you were hit pretty hard? I hope nothing is broken. If anything is wrong, I could take you to the nurse's office.""
"Nothing is wrong, so don't worry about it."
"Thank God. I was worried that you were hurt. If you feel anything wrong you better get it checked at the nurse's office. Bye, I'll be more careful next time."
And just like it never happened, he was gone.
"He seemed to be in a hurry."
"No figure Einstein."
The voice behind me came from none other than my twin sister.
"He seems to be heading in the direction of our class."
"He didn't seem to recognize you though."
"True, if he did I think he would have been quaking in his boots to have realized that he had hit a member of the royal family."
"Yeah, you're right."
"Wait a second."
"Hmm..."
"Why are you here? I remember leaving the class and you were there. So how are you here?
"I followed you."
"What!"
"Is something wrong with that?"
"Yes, that is wrong in various ways. What do you think people are going to say?"
"Stuff like Sidra can't go to the bathroom alone or Sidra needs her big sister to hold her hand while she leaves the class"
"Hey stop it that's not funny. You know what I'm leaving and besides I'm the older twin."
With that I got up from the bench I was sitting on and left for my class.
"Hey, wait up you know I was only kidding and you know that.”
I quickened my pace after hearing what she said.
Blau's POV
"Mister Industria it seems to me like you are, late for my class."
I just got into the class after running from the library. The teacher was already finished with the class and was giving a summary for the class when I got there.
"I'm sorry sir, I was with another teacher.”
"You have missed the class, it would be best for you to read the note later as I have sent it to every student. You may have your seat"
"Thank you sir, I'll do my best to make i never miss your class again.”
With that I left my current position and went towards a seat at the back. I was headed to the seat and sat down. Shortly after I sat down, the bell rung for the class to leave for the next period.
Immediately the bell rung, the teacher dismissed us and I stood up from my newly taken seat and left for the next class. This time I was not running.

The next class was none other than Physical Education on the academy's track field. This was a compulsory class for every student in the school regardless of their age or level of education. Unless you were physically unable to exercise or were a member of the one of the academy's multiple and I mean multiple sports clubs there was no escape.

This was only my third class of the day and I was already sick of being here. But to be honest barely anyone my age wants to be in school.
These days education was a mandatory thing for everybody. You were prevented from making some transactions if you did not have a high school diploma but that is the only educational certificate that you need and that they were no prior educational certificates that you need to get one but it was not like one could go to any institution and get one.
I was thinking about all of this while jogging and then heard a loud whistle sound in my ears.
"Fweeeee"
Damn that's loud.
"Mr Transfer student do you not know that you need to move to jog" (What the teacher said.)
"M_. T___f_r s___e_t do y__ no_ __ow that _o_ n__d t_ m__e t_ j_g."(What Blau heard.)
Unfortunately, I couldn't hear what he was saying due to all the ringing in my ears. My hearing is way more sensitive than the hearing of the average human and I do not seem to be the only student who is reacting to the whistle. I looked at him and asked what.
[Blau's ears were ringing so it seemed like he was shouting at the teacher.]
"How dare you shout at a member of staff!” (What the teacher said.)
"H__ _are __u __out a_ a ___be_ __ sta__!"(What Blau heard.)
I still could not hear him properly. I had to tell him that I couldn't hear him properly.
"I'm sorry sir, I can't hear you."
"You can't hear me. What the hell do you mean? I'm shouting at the top of my voice. "
I could still not make out anything he was saying but it seems like he was even more agitated now.
"YOU CAN'T SAY THAT YOU CAN'T HEAR ME WHILE YELLING. I'M PRETTY SURE YOU ARE MAKING FUN OF ME. YOU'RE PROBABLY JUST USING SOME SLANG. I HATE YOUR GENERATION. "
I regained my hearing when he started this rant but now I wish I didn't because now he is shouting right in my ears.
"YOU BETA« YOU THINK THAT SOMETHING LIKE THAT WOULD PHASE A SIGMA MALE WITH OLD MAN RIZZ LIKE ME. WELL YOU GOTTA SKI*IDI RIGHT OUTTA HERE CUZ YOU GOT SOME BIG GY*TT BRAINROT!"
I could not get anything this old man was saying for two reasons; one, my ears were ringing again and two; he was spitting some heavy nonsense.
Not long after this the teacher was dragged away from the field by some members of staff, by that time my hearing was back and I heard what a member of the staff saying that the old man needed his medicine and another saying that he was Generation Alpha or something.
With that the class was concluded early, which meant that my class was going to enjoy an early lunch break.
The rest of today was uneventful, but I have been left with one question.
What was a Generation Alpha?

Unknown POV
The school day was over and everyone was leaving their classes. The sound of students talking about to their friends filled the hallways; the air was filled with noise.
Noise, it was all noise and I hated it so much.
I would that I would not be here if I didn't have to but this was all part of the mission. There was no way I would mess up the mission.
The mission was simple, scout out the students in this school, if the target was in the school inform the boss and then everything was done.
That was the mission but why am I here babysitting an old man who supposedly ran mad during a class? Why the hell am even here. Why the hell, why the hell, why the hell! I'm a member of a criminal organization not a school nurse. Why was I given this job?
I let out a loud shout to air out my frustrations.
"Honey I can't talk, I'm mew...."
He seemed to be talking in his sleep. I didn't let him finish that statement. I was able to silence him, I didn't kill him though just spread the air around his mouth so that the sound travelling would not reach me.
I didn't need to use my abilities though. I didn't need them to make someone keep quiet. In fact I'm way better than that good for nothing that controls can control gravity.
In fact she probably can control it because she was so close to a celestial body throughout her life time. Yes, I'm pretty sure her mom was so fat that she had her own gravitational pull and five moons.
"My mom died when I was one. I think."
"Ahhh!"
My communicator was on and must have received a transmission from my commander.
"Yo."
"Commander Andromeda, I didn't think that you would call so early."
"I didn't know that I was a good for nothing."
I didn't realize I was saying that stuff out. I'd be a walking cadaver if not for that the commander has a bad memory and was pretty tame.
"Ma'am I do not understand what you mean. I was not talking about you I was acting for a play in the academy. Even teachers had to participate."
"Then what are you practicing for."
"I can't remember the name of the character though."
"Okay, talk to you later."
It seemed that the call had ended. I let out a sigh of relief.
"Actually, I just remembered why I called you."
The communicator was on again.
"If I may ask, why am I being called commander?"
"How is the mission going now?"
"I'm making progress, in leaps and strides now so I think that I will be able to provide you with the target soon."
I'm lying.
"That is good to hear. See you later."
The called was ended and once again I let out a sigh of relief.
The person on the phone was none other than Andromeda Gravedad, a famous killer who had magic that was capable of controlling gravity. She is rumoured to use her magic to pin her victims down and then drop needles that she makes one hundred thousand times heavier on their bones and enjoys hearing them scream in pain as they are being tortured to death while they can't move.
I heard that at work and two weeks later, the very lucky me is called by my boss to meet my new commander.
"I need a vacation."
