35 My School Decision

Obviously, Kuno arrived long before me, but we didn't get home. He stopped at a small ice cream shop and bought two ice creams.

"Mmmm! How delicious!" I say as I lick the ice cream.

We are sitting on a bench.

"So your favorite flavor is strawberry?" Kuno says as he licks his vanilla and chocolate ice cream.

"Yes. I haven't eaten one for a long time "

"Your dad bought before?"

"Yes, when I saw it in a manga I bothered him for weeks until he bought a whole pack of different flavors"

"Haha! You were probably- Hm?" he stops speaking suddenly.

"Kuno?"

"You didn't feel that?"

"Feel what?"

"Come on!" Kuno gets up and throws his ice cream in the trash.

"Wait! I don't want to throw away my ice cream!"

Kuno runs and I go behind him eating the ice cream in a hurry.

*breath* *breath*

*lick*

*breath* *breath*

Kuno stops in an alley.

"Kuno! Why are you running so fast, I almost fell-!"

He covers my mouth with his hand.

"Shh! Don't talk so loud"

We peek out the wall so they don't see us.

*lick*

"You know it!" a guy about my age is in the alley, holding other guy by the shirt and pointing his hand to his face as if it were a weapon.

"I know nothing! You're exaggerating, this is too much!"

"He humiliated me in front of everyone! Tell me why he did it!"

"Calm down, this is not-!"

He throws an skill to the wall that dissipates to scare him.

*lick*

"We shouldn't be spying, we better-"

"Stop there!" Kuno goes into the alley.

"Kuno!"

I stay hidden.

"Who are you!" the aggressive guy sees Kuno.

"You shouldn't use magic outside of Lilynn, it's very dangerous-"

"That's why we're in an alley!"

Outside of Lilynn?

*lick*

Kuno slowly approaches them.

"It's not honorable to use it that way-"

"What they did to me wasn't either!"

"This is a misunderstanding! He thinks he did it on purpose-!"

"Shut up and tell me the reason!"

Kuno keeps getting closer.

"It's not necessary to do this, it can be talked-"

"Stop getting close!"

He turns around and aims with his hand.

Kuno stops.

"Okay, I'll stay here, but don't do anything stupid"

"Stupid? Tell him what they did to me!" threatens the other guy.

"Don't worry, I'll be fine, it's just-"

The aggressive huy turns to give him a blow and Kuno takes advantage to run towards them.

But the aggressive guy realizes and aims at Kuno again.

"I told you to stay there!"

"Aren't you going to cast it?" Kuno challenges him.

"Eh?" the guys are surprised.

Eh? me too.

*crack* now I bite the cone.

"Come on, cast it"

"What are you trying to do?" the aggressive guy asks.

His back…

Kuno's back begins to be covered with green Energy, like a very liquid jelly.

*crack* I finish the ice cream.

"If you are so brave to threaten someone, at least have the testicles to fulfill your threat"

"Shut up!"

"I'm waiting!"

"That's what you want? All right!"

Oh no…

His arm begins to be surrounded by red Energy, lines that look like broken ribbons.

But the whole backside of Kuno is already covered.

"Hah!" the guy yells and a large red lightray comes out of the palm of his hand.

It is directed directly to Kuno.

*fuuz fuuz*

It crosses the alley in less than a second and hits Kuno.

*kzzzkush*

The light disperses around Kuno.

Kuno!

But now the Energy that was on his back covers his body completely.

Woah...

"A tank? I should have known by your physique"

"Now is my turn"

Kuno raises his arm and aims at the guy.

It starts to surround with red Energy.

"Stop"

That tired voice...

On the other side of the alley comes someone else.

"Commander Zeev?" the aggressive guy is surprised.

Wait, he is...

Kuno's Energy disappears.

He arrives with the guys and puts his hand on the shoulder of the aggressive guy.

"Let go" he says.

"Fine" he lets the other guy go, but he doesn't seem happy at all.

"Thank you, Commander" the other guy thanks Zeev.

"Don't think you'll get away with it-"

Zeev hits both on the head.

"What do you think you're doing?" although he seems serious, it's obvious that this isn't the first time he has to do it.

"They started! They humiliated me in front of my friends and they don't want to-! "

Zeev hits him again.

"You act like children"

"Ouchouch, it hurts..."

"He was threatening him with magic" Kuno tells him.

"Steinar? Do you have something to do with this?" Zeev asks.

"I was walking with..."

Don't say it!

"With... hunger and I felt the Energy, so I came to see what it was"

"I get it. It looks like you used a shield, did he attack you?"

"Yes, but it was weak"

"That's because I didn't want to kill you! And you challenged me!" the aggressive guy says as an excuse.

"It doesn't matter, you both used magic. You, are you studying in Lilynn?" he asks the aggressive guy.

"Yes, I will pass to third year..."

"You will come with me. You can go" he tells the other guy.

"Okay. Sorry for the trouble" he says and leaves the alley.

"Kuno, you were an exemplary student at School and it's the first time you're involved in something like this, you can go"

"Thank you Commander"

"But don't repeat, before you meddle you have to call the police"

"Yes, I'm sorry"

Kuno turns around and walks towards me. I hide so they don't see me.

"Steinar" Zeev calls Kuno before leaving.

Kuno stops walking.

"We already told you not to get carried away by the situation. Be careful"

He goes by the other side of the alley.

Kuno comes to me.

"Kuno, are you okay?"

"Yes, sorry for being meddlesome"

"It's fine, I think it's honorable, but you threw away your ice cream"

"Yes. Everything went well, that's what I wanted"

"And remember that I must hide from Xenon"

"I know, but I couldn't stay with crossed arms"

"And... he is... who killed my dad..."

"Commander Zeev?"

"Yes... He used Asil's sword to..."

"You're good?"

"Yes, he was just doing what he had to do..."

"Yes…"

"Your arm was covering with red Energy, did you want to attack him?"

"I don't know ... Let's go back home, I'm curious about your decision"

"All right"

We walk back home and we all go to the living room.

"We called you here because Alex has a piece of news to give us"

"Are you pregnant?" Dai says jokingly.

"What? No! I've only been here two weeks!" I answer blushing.

"It was sarcasm. Say it fast, I was in the middle of a quest"

"I finally made the decision..."

"Will you go to work?" Elin asks.

"I still haven't decide that... But my decision is..."

...

...

"Your decision was what!" Dai gets angry.

"I will enter your highschool!"

...

"Eh?" Everyone is surprised.
