Chapter: 2 The Start of a new School Year

Chapter: 2 The Start of a new School Year

The morning Jaylin awoke in a cold sweat tossing and turning from a nightmare he had, his room was destroyed and everything was on the ground, although confused at first he did sense a few particles of his chemical and was able to piece together that he was the one who had trashed his room. Not long after this realisation he cleaned his room and then went to the bathroom to wash his body and brush his teeth, after doing so he got dressed and grabbed his stuff before running to school. Upon his arrival he saw his friends waiting for him all lined up in front of a completely brick two story tall school which had been slightly run down but arguably the best building within the city and he and his friends would be attending this school together.

Chris: You really fit the black stereotype showing up all late and shit.

Jaylin: Shut up Chris.

Thomas: But it’s true.

Jaylin: I don’t remember asking you, also where the hell is Shawn’s ass at?

Chris: He was helping a new teacher carry some boxes down to another classroom.

Not wasting another moment they walk in the doors of their new school and notice a light skin petite girl with light brown hair who is roughly five foot two inches tall and standing in a short line.

Jaylin: Yo Jasmine what’s up, why you waiting around here for?

Jasmine: Heyy Jaylin, I’m waiting to get my class schedule.

Thomas: When you gonna let my boy hit?

Jaylin: Don’t listen to this damn clinically insane light weight.

Thomas: It's a serious question, she gonna let you pipe or what?

Jasmine: Mind your own goddamn business.

Jaylin: Well damn, I’ll wait here with you, I ain’t got mine yet either. Thomas, have you got yours yet?

Thomas: Yeah I got mine in the mail, see y’all later.

Upon Thomas leaving to his homeroom Jaylin and Jasmine continue to talk when they get their schedules they realise they shared the same homeroom class as one another. While heading to their homeroom they notice one of the new teachers that dropped their papers, she’s a tall woman, roughly six foot three with short blue hair and a green T-shirt with a white lab coat. Jaylin and Jasmine witnessing this had decided to help her get her papers and while doing so asked her what class she was going to and who she was.

Pam: Firstly thank you, secondly I’m Pam, and I’m currently heading to room 121.

Jasmine: That’s the science lab and our homeroom.

Jaylin: Would you like some help with carrying those papers?

Pam: Yes thank you if you wouldn’t mind. Also what are your names?

Jaylin: My name is Jaylin Lockett.

Jasmine: And my name is Jasmine Smith.

Pam: Also it looks like I’ll be your homeroom teacher.

The three of them then started to head over to the science lab. It's a big white room with eight tables and each table had three chairs, and towards the front of the room a big table with a computer on it that would connect to the overhead projector and screen. Jaylin and Jasmine helped her get her stuff set up on her table and then quickly sat down next to one another in the seats closest to the middle of the room. Not long after taking their seats Shawn walks in and sits next to Jaylin, the room quickly filled with the many other students of the class. Mrs. Pam then stands in front of the class and started by introducing herself and then not long after she had everybody else introduce themselves. Once everyone was finished introducing themselves she stated that her class is the only basics of magic weapon creation and maintenance class within the school.

For the start of class Mrs. Pam just gave out pamphlets for our parents to read and to let them know of what their child is expected to have for the class. All they needed was protective goggles, gloves, and steel toe boots, that's all they needed for the year. Sometime passes and they go to their basic combat class and when they enter the gym they notice a tall lengthy man with short brown slicked back hair, and red eyes, he also wore a firm fitting black shirt with white baggy pants. Whenever Jaylin and Jasmine entered they seen their friends and said their goodbyes and split up to talk among their other friends. Once everyone sat down the man walked into the middle of the gym and in a slightly deep but demanding voice he said.

Mr. Peacock: My name is Anthony Peacock, and this class is your basic combat class. You will be trained both with and without your abilities, and you will be learning things you couldn’t have even imagined you could do with your abilities. Any questions before we begin?

Jasmine: Where did you work before?

Mr. peacock: I used to work for the military. I was a combat trainer.

Random student #1: Why’d you come to this school?

Mr. Peacock: There are two reasons. One is my old high school and two, personal reasons. One more question then we'll get started.

Thomas: What if I don't wanna take this class?

Mr. Peacock: Too bad this class is required by the state.

Thomas: Any way I can get exempt from it?

Mr. Peacock: No but you wouldn’t have to do as much if you also have the magical apparatus class. Ok now get started with 10 laps around the gym and then i’ll teach you all the proper stances and a light spar to get you all used to combat movements.

After everyone ran they learned how to properly throw a punch and kick, got into groups of two and started sparring and after a bit of time passed, the last major class of the day was magical theory class, which mainly focussed on combining chemicals to make all sorts of elements. This class is the basis of all magic and will teach you how your magic works but before the teacher finishes explaining what the class was about everyone hears an explosion somewhere within the building. Somewhere within the building there were men dressed in combat gear with guns, swords, and other such weapons, prepared to start going room to room, and as they entered the school they eventually made it to Jaylins class and told everyone to get on the ground and put their hands on their backs. One of them uses a small hand held device most likely used to talk amongst themselves privately, and after looking at it for a moment he says “We have the cargo.” as they then proceeded to knock both Chris and Jaylin out with heavy strikes to the head with arms coated in different kinds of metal.

Upon Jaylin waking up, he noticed his three other friends laying on beds beside him and that they were still knocked out. Jaylin then noticed that the room had lights, four beds and jail cell bars for a window with a locked steel door preventing any of them from leaving. Jaylin says “Where the hell are we?” before he starts waking everybody.

Jaylin: You guys ok.

Chris: Yeah I’m good.

Shawn: I’m good as well.

Thomas: Same here but where the hell are we?

Jaylin: I don’t know, looks to me like we got kidnapped.

Chris: But why the hell?

Jaylin: I don’t know but whatever it is it can’t be good.

Shawn: We definitely need to find a way to escape somehow.

Thomas: How the hell are we going to manage that? We don’t even know where the fuck we even are?

But before they can even start planning their escape a tall white man with long unkempt hair wearing a lab coat walks in and says in a russian accent “Hello kiddos I am doctor Radon and you will be trained as child soldiers in our ranks we will break you and build you back up the way we want. Any questions?” As he smiles with a malicious grin that promises nothing but pain.

Jaylin: Why did you choose us?

Dr. Radon: I chose you because of your chemical magic. It was deemed useful to our cause.

Thomas: What use do I have for your so-called plans?

Dr. Radon: Yours is the most useful. You just don’t know how truly powerful you could be. Now's not the time to talk. I have to get some of my experiments ready.

Thomas: Man fuck y’all, and your goals, my ass ain’t stayin long.

The doctor, ignoring the comment, then walked out, and not long after a woman walked in, she had green eyes, short pink hair, and a lab coat much neater than Radon’s. She then introduced herself as Nessa, after the introduction she said “I am the doctor's assistant, I'm here to show you around. Now follow me and don’t do anything stupid” abiding by her words they followed her down and out of the cell then down a corridor. When they then notice that they seem to be in a forest with guards everywhere and other kids older than them all of which seem badly injured and covered in dry blood.
