"Nate."

    "Your majesty?"

    "Pinch me. This is not real." My body was dead cold as I was staring straight to the eyes of the man who was peeking on the door. The light inside was not on which made things even more creepier. I felt Nate pinch me which made me felt pain. I realized that this was indeed true and was no longer a dream. My head was not functioning thinking as to why is this happening in real life when I just dreamed about it. Is this deja vu? Taking up a deep breath, I grasped to every courage I have in me before deciding to speak.

    "Whose there!" I did everything for my voice to not shake. My gaze was still fixated at the person who continued to peek from the door. The difference was, his smirk was gone but the redness in his eyes got even more vibrant.. Despite the fear, I decided to stand up and walked closer to it a bit.

    "I order you to show yourself unknown creature. That or I will force you through the use of my powers." I raised my and and a white flame emerged from my palm. It seems like the creature became alarmed as it hid even more that it''s red creepy eyes were the only thing to be seen from where it was at. I waited for a few moment but it did not come out from where it was hiding and continued to peek.

    "Nate, close the door." Once I heard a thud, a signal that the door was lock and no one could come in. My feet immediately levitated from the ground as I filled the washroom with white fire. The shadow of the man became more evident. It then started to scream, it''s voice sounded like the most horrible thing I have ever heard.

    My feet touched the ground as the fire inside the room died down. I spoke one more time, my fear already dissipating as I realized that I was no longer weak as I have my powers already.

    "Come out or you will turn into ash." I spoke once again. After a few moments, the door of the washroom started to move. The creature''s feet emerged from behind and then it stood in front of us as a whole. It was dripping in blood and looked very frail. It resembled a dead person''s body. It looked like it was decaying. A putrid smell filled the room making both Nate and I gag.

    "Who are you." My hands were covering my nose I spoke directly to the creature who stood straight on his spot.

    "T-This creature h-has no name. This c-creature w-was summon by h-his majesty. T-this creature does n-not intend to frighten h-his majesty." Nate and I looked at each other very much confused as to what is this creature talking about. Is he talking about me summoning him?! Why on the pits of the abyss would I summon such horrendous and putrid creature to come to my room?

    "What do you mean? Who summoned you?" Nate questioned with his authoritative voice. The nameless creature backed down slightly as he held his hands together while looking down.

    "H-He did. This c-creature was s-summoned by P-Prince A-Alexander." My brows got even more furrowed in confusion.

    "Preposterous! I shall kill you for saying such nonsense-"

    "Nate, let me speak." I interrupted.

    "Creature, how did I summon you exactly?" I spoke, now calmly as somehow, I sensed that there was quite nothing to fear about this creature despite so hideous looking.

    "Y-You summoned t-this creature this m-morning, y-your majesty. I h-heard y-your calling in t-the woods. Thi-This creatures a-apologizes f-for following y-you." It spoke while stuttering. An idea popped into my head and I don''t know where it came from but I just knew what to do.

    I wave my hand before him and then he turned into a normal looking person. Nate gasped and so did eye as both our eyes widened. He was a a young boy who was good looking. But despite that, his eyes were still red.

    "Forgive this creatures intrusion your majesty. This creature hear your calling in the woods and decided to follow you." It spoke again but much clearer. His voice now sounded normal which unlike before which sounded like death.

    "Tell me now clearly. Who are you?"

    "I do not know your majesty. I have lied in the ground for too long that my body has started to decay and rot. Although I may look like I am dead and scary, I am quite alive and loyal. I no longer know who I am at this point in time. I only got awoken when I heard your calling. This creature will follow your order and will serve you. I am one with the forest but as you are the one who summoned me, let it be that the forest is now one with you too."

    I looked at it with furrowed eyebrows as I examine its figure. It no longer look hideous and was quite the opposite this time. It was dressed, I mean he was now dressed formally. He also speaks normally now which is quite nice. Despite that I am still not bound to trust him. He may look like a decent boy now but he still came out from nowhere and I do not know a single thing about him. The things he talks about is quite suspicious.

    "Your majesty. Snap your finger once to summon me. I will go back to my slumber but will not be to sleepy to heed to your command. This creature will leave now." Before I even got to speak a single word, a smoke engulfed the boy who once looked like he was about to attack and eat us alive to a pretty young boy disappear. Just as how he appeared. I looked at Nate with a confused look and he did the same.

    I sighed and sat back on my bed before speaking.

    "Nate, get my clothes ready. We''ll talk about this later. We have dinner to go and attend to. I do not want to keep them waiting." I spoke before I went to the washroom.

    As soon as I got there, there were no trails of blood, trails of putrid odors or even any sign that that creature was here. It was quite creepy indeed especially when it stared at us with its red eyes but as of now, I have better and important things to attend to. The others must be waiting for me. I quickly took a shower and brushed my teeth before combing my hair. Nate handed me a towel before I walked out and went into the walk in closet. There, my clothes were already picked by Nate just as how I told him to do so. I was quite thankful that it wasn''t that flashy like the other suits that I have.

    I slipped into the clothing before I rushed outside. My head turned to the window and saw that it was already night time. Then I fixated my gaze to the mirror and checked if I looked okay.

    "How much time left?"

    "Twenty minutes Alex." I nodded and fixed my suit. Once I was satisfied with it, I looked at Nate who nodded at me back. The both of us walked outside of the room like nothing happened. Nate on the other hand looked very much floaty and daze. Confused as to what just happened in the room and I too feel the same way but at this point, I shouldn''t get distracted or anything as I need to focus on acting like I don''t have my powers yet. I''ll tend to that creature once I''m done settling things.

    We walked down the hallway and outside of the main academia building. There is a nice restaurant that is near the main building but is still inside the campus. Nate has informed me that the others had pick the place as they were too tired of the same area and ambience of the cafeteria which by the way didn''t serve any bad food, it was just not a good fit for a conversation that we are going to held later on as there are always too many prying eyes in such open space.

    Afar, I got my gaze on a building that had fancy lights from the outside. It did not have any name or any signage of sort. Nate and I walked straight towards it and once we got to the main door, a security came to look at us. Once he saw us, he immediately smiled, bowed his head a little before paving the way towards the door for me and Nate to enter. Once we got inside, the interior almost took my breath away. It was so beautiful and well crafted. The details of the interior which had paintings, carvings on the ceilings as well as the chair, table and utensils, were so intricately made. I smiled at the beauty of this place. I was about to go and look for the others when I heard a familiar voice behind me.

    "I thought you were not going to show up fainting prince of the sea." A smile was drawn on my lips and turned to face Kaval.
