Chapter 6: Lex

The rest of the guys just stared in shock as thy Watched me sob over Kevin's body. They finally snapped out of the shock abd helped me to carry kelvin out of the forest and into the academy. Just then, when I looked through the gates, I saw Manny coming out from the woods.

We took him to the academy hospital and waited for the nurse to attend to him.

"He's going to be fine" the nurse told us with a kind smile before leaving the room. 

"Is he a werewolf?" I heard Manny ask beside me and I turned my head towards her and raised a brow at her. Before I could give her a sarcastic response, Frex beat me to it.

"What those it look like?" frex replied and a small smile formed on my lips.

"He is the son of master. Is master a werewolf?" June asked and I wondered the same.

" I dunno, June" I mumbled, holding Kevin's hand in mine.

"You most really be close, huh" Manny said and I nodded even though it wasn't true.

The nurse came in at that moment and I moved away from Kelvin so she could check him. "He will be awake within two to three hours" the nurse said and ten left again.

"I'll Be on my way now" manny said and with a nod, she left the ward.

"Will you be OK all by yourself?" june asked me with a frown.

"Yeah" I mumbled curtly and gave her a reassuring nod.

The all left the room one after the other and I was soon all alone with Kelvin. I rest my head on the bed next to Kevin's chest and didn't know when I slept off.

~~~~~~

"Destiny, destiny" I heard a voice say but I just groan and turned my head to the other side. I soon felt a hand touching my face softly then I woke up to see kelvin looking at me with a smile

"How you feeling" I asked rubbing my eyes lid and suppressing a yawn. God, i still feeling sleepy.

"I'm OK...." He mumbled then looked around. "But how did I get here?" he asked.

"You don't remember?" I asked frowning and putting a few strands of white hair behind my ear.

"No I don't" he replied curtly

"You almost attacked us in your werewolf form" I told him looking at him straight in the eyes. "In the woods" I added and his eyes widen but he said nothing.

His silence went on for about five minutes and I became worried. "Kelvin you OK?" I asked him and he nodded his head and stood up from the bed.

"I can't control myself when I turn into a werewolf. So every night, I leave the academy to transform." he said with a sigh. "I knew what I did now, but why did you leave the academy" he asked with his head tilted sideways.

"Don't worry about that" I told him brushing his question away. "How many of you exist?" I asked, curious to know about the beasts as it was told that all werewolves died about seventy years ago.

" you mean werewolves? Well, I'm the only one remaining. The are all dead" he replied sadly. Although I was expecting him to say that, I still felt pity for him.

It couldn't have been easy being the last of your kind.

"So your dad isn't a werewolf?" I asked curiously.

"Yeah. But mom is. Dad told me the are all dead" he said

"And you believe him?" I asked with a frown because that didn't sound right.

"Well yeah..." he mumbled with a chuckle.

"Thanks for staying throughout the night" he added and gave me a quick hug.

"I was just curious that all. Don't feel to big" I winked at him and he laughed.

"Whatever"

When the nurse came back to check up on him, she told him that he was free to go and we left the room. As well walked through the hall, I couldn't help but glance at Kelvin and think that they were more werewolves out there.

We bid our goodbye as Kelvin left to meet up with master and I just continue heading back to my room.

I released a sigh as I took slow steps to my dorm and my mind jumped to Lex. I haven't seen him since he left the training ground.

When I opened the door, I saw Rachel talking to someone and when he turned his head, it turned out to be Lex.

What was he doing here? I thought.

"Hey Rachel" I mumbled to my friend then turned to look at Lex. 

"What you doing here?" I asked curiously and he scoff.

Well, Okay... 

"I came here to see you" he replied and I could hear the giggles of Rachel behind us. 

"Do you mind if we train together this afternoon? we only have seven more days left for master to pick who will go for war" he said as he place both hands into his jean pocket. 

"I thought we are gonna fight to get chosen?" I asked him. "That's why we need training" he replied more like his getting annoyed of answering my questions already.

"But why do you want to train with me anyways?" I giggled like a middle school girl feeling happy that he asked me to train with him 

 "Never mind " he said turning towards the door and my heart dropped.

"Hey wait up. I'll be there" I giggled hoping that he would still train with me.

"Whatever" he mumbled as he pulled the door open.

" Wait!" I said, stopping him from leaving again and he released a sign of frustration.

"What?" 

"Where have you been since all this while?" I asked him and he turned his head slightly to look at me.

"Home" That was the only word he said, before I could ask more questions he pulled the door and left.

I flopped down on my bed and let out a sigh, we all need training I thought.

I saw Rachel winking and giggling at they same time. "You like him huh" she smiled at me and I scoffed.

" no" I replied curtly.

"Liar, its obvious" she mumbled wiggling her brows.

"I don't " I defended and Rachel rolled her eyes.

"Let's go to the hall, everyone is there. Meeting" she said as she got up from her bed and moved towards the door a d i followed behind her.

We went to the hall and everyone were there seated on a seat and I couldn't find a free seat for I and Rachel. 

Rachel tapped me lightly when she found one and we quickly went there before it gets taken by others. We sat patiently and waited for what master was going to say.

He went up stage with a microphone in his hand. Master cleared his throat and the whole room went silent.

"As you can see everyone. Demons are now finding their way through the magical bubble that is protecting us and other people out there." Master started saying and we all listened. 

"Thousands of people are dying because of those beast out there. This place is not longer save. And I need up to six people out of the one hundred and eleven student here, three girls and three boys. So three days from now we are having a competition to see the best fighters. And I want to pair two people to train together. 

Your numbers will determine the person you will be paired with if you pick number one and another pick number two you will have to train together." He said and everyone looked at each other.

"So everyone, come closer and pick your numbers" he added pointing to a black box.

We all stood and started picking a small ball from the black box.

"My number is thirty" I mumbled turning to look at Rachel. 

"So everyone please I need you all to call out your number loudly to know who your partner is" master said.

Everyone called out their number and its was my turn.

"Number thirty" I said loudly and the next person which is number thirty one turned out to be Lex.

I gasped in shock. And happy at they same time.

Lex is going to be my partner I thought 

Rachel was paired with Manny. The crazy bitch who turned out to be nice a day and rude the next day. 

I saw lex giving me a sly winked and I turned back my head blushing real bad.
