10 Chapter 08: Never Mess with Me

Camille's POV

I hurriedly did my morning routine and went downstairs.

I saw them sitting down bores as I arrived downstairs. They must be waiting for me.

"S-Sorry for being late" I whispered.

"You must have a nice dream. Let's go" Brylle coldly said and started walking.

We followed him and went straight to or classroom.

"What did you dreamed of?" Azalea asked as we are walking.

Gwendolyn said that I musn't tell this to anyone so I kept quiet and pretended like I heard nothing.

*Classroom

As we entered our classroom, everyone's eyes landed on us.

"Elites! What a surprise for not seeing you at the Dining Hall this morning and for being the latest student to enter our classroom. You're lucky that I just arrived or else you'll be marked late and won't have a perfect attendance!" Miss Farnao said and smiled.

"Sorry. Someone just had the sweetest dream ever" Brylle coldly said and sat down on his chair. I feel ashamed and bowed down as we all sit down on our chairs. They didn't even ate anything because of waiting for me.

"Did you know why Miss Farnao? It's because someone gives bad luck out there" the girl said with a sassy tone. I stared at her.

"Let's start our lesson. Stop playing" Miss Farnao answered and jokingly laughed so silent. Maybe she noticed how irritated I was.

"No Miss Farnao! Why will we stop if this is the lucky day of a peacock wo wants everyone's attention? Right? This is your moment! Prove that you're just a show-off. You're the one who always search for everyone's attention right?!" she screamed without looking at anyone. Don't you think I don't know that you're talking about me? Ivy?!

"Ivy, it's so disrespectful trash talking about someone you don't know. And it's against the rule if you make jokes in the middle of a lesson" Miss Farnao answered and it's too obvious how she swallows her anger.

"Yes it is! Lessons are about to start already" Jake said. The first guy who spoke with me as I first entered this room.

"Oh, you see it? Everyone is on your side! Don't pretend that you don't know. You already know that you're the one I'm talking about right?! Camille?! The peacock girl?!" she screamed once again.

"Ivy what has gotten into you?! You had never been like that before!" Miss Farnao was so sick and couldn't help herself not to scream. I'm here trying to pretend I'm not hearing anything to calm myself down.

"I'm just irritated Miss Farnao! Classmates! She tripped me yesterday! My bones was about to be injured. I'm doing this to report the humiliating thing she had done!" she said. I guess it's you who the peacock is!

"Camille, is that true?!" Miss Farnao asked as if she's also angry at me.

"Ma-am-" Azalea was about to speak when Brylle covered his mouth that cut her words.

I looked at Brylle. A few moments later, he smiled. It looks like he's telling me to speak up the truth. I nodded and he removed his palm from covering Azalea's mouth.

"Yes" I coldly answered.

"Camille?! You're the newest student. Why aren't you ashamed of doing something wrong?" our teacher asked.

"Yeah, you know it!" the peacock screamed. I'm so irritated!

"Miss Farnao, I did it because I never wanted to be caught at the same traps again. I'm just avoiding the green liquid on the floor so that I won't be slipped and I just didn't see the leg blocking my way on purpose. Is everything clear? If I just did something wrong, how come the one I'm defending my self with did not?" I coldly said with a little sassy tone.

"So it's your fault Ivy. Why did it just happened?!" Miss Farnao asked irritatedly.

Ivy said nothing but she just went straight towards we to attack me. She was about to slap my right cheek when I catched her hand, twisted it, causing her to fall on the floor.

"You challenged me, I accepted, you surrendered. You attacked me, and I'll give my defense" I coldly whispered.

"Camille! Ivy! Stop with this foolish thing!" Miss Farnao shouted. I kept quiet and smiled devilishly at the one who's drowning in pain.

Miss Farnao was about to hold our hands when she stand up and throw our teacher blocking us with the help of the green liquid. Glad no one else among the class tried to interrupt us.

"We're not yet done! I won't surrender to you weak peackock!' she screamed.

She's so slow to attack so I'm bored. I just started walking away instead of listening to useless words.

"How dare you" I heard her whispere and I realize that she's after me.

She just touched my hair and I know what she's gonna do next. So, I prevented her arm in doing it.

I was surprised to see a green liquid coming out from her palm.

She was about to slap my face when someone held her hand preventing her from doing it.

"Don't touch someone you don't even know" a guy behind me coldly said.

I just noticed her voice and I know who is he.

"B-Brylle?" I whispered.

"Who are you to protect her?!" Ivy screamed at him.

She dragged down Ivy's hand. And I was shocked of the next thing he said.

"She's my true friend"

My world just stopped. And I feel like, I'm so calmed down.

I looked at my back.

"B-Brylle?" all I can do now is to whisper his name.

"You know, I hate show-off girls!" Ivy screamed and she was about to grab my hair when my world revolves again. I looked at her and kicked her. But then, I hit a different person.

"Don't lay a finger to her!" she said.

"Thanks, Jazz" Ivy whispered. Jazz. Jazz. Jazz. So, you're one of them huh? All my bullies at the mortal have nicknames for each other. First is Ivory who they call Ivy. Next is Shaira who was called, Aira. And the last but not the least, is Jasmine who has the nickname Jazz. And what's exciting is that their nicknames are used here as birthnames of another set of bullies.

I'm strong. And I'll prove it.

I pushed Brylle away and I also pushed Jazz towards the weak Ivy.

"Are you surrendering? You couldn't have felt that pain if I didn't know your names. And if you had never gotten on my way" I said with a creepy voice. I was about to sit down and slap them both when someone hugged me from behind.

I came back to my senses and realize what I just done. I-I d-did this mess?

The door suddenly opened and Headmaster Viado, Jake and the first two guys I met in the mortal world just entered.

They came near us and I looked who's behind me. I'm shocked to see Brylle. W-What am I feeling?

"Ambers, Eslava, Vetura and Valdez, come to the office with me. You too Ramos. Sean, Rein, take Miss Farnao to the Crystal Cure and tell the doctors her life is 50/50. I don't think this is a great day for you to proceed. Students, your classes for today are suspended. Back to your dorms and shut your mouths!" Headmaster Viado said and went out. We followed him with a silent mouth.

We headed to the Headmaster's Office with entangled eyebrows and sharp eyes.

*Headmaster's Office

"What just happened?" the old man asked.

"This girl-" Ivy's words was cut when Headmaster Viado spoke.

"Ramos, tell the whole details" he commanded with an angry voice.

"H-Headmaster Viado, C-Camille and the Elites entered late at the classroom. Miss Farnao made fun of them and Ivy started to jump in. She pissed off Camille and because of this, she revealed her own bad move yesterday about trying to hurt Camille. This is where the mess started but as Miss Farnao tried to stop them Ivy throw her away, and she became unconcious. That's all I saw since I came here as soon as possible to report the incident" Jake answered and bowed down.

"Elite Eslava, and Valdez, how did you involved in?" old man asked.

"I'm just blocking Camille's attacks because I don't want to see Ivy getting hurt again" the girl said. Proving yourself a plastic again huh?!

"How about you Elite Eslava?" he then asked Brylle.

"I let them show what they feel. But when I feel like it's too unfair for someone to use her Charm against others who don't know theirs" Brylle coldly answered.

"Ventura, you know that you're not allowed to use your Charm against comrades. You're only allowed to if you're on a training or tournament we planned as an event or if you are told to. But, I want to hear from your side" he said.

"That girl! She hurt me so much that she was about to break my leg! She could have killed me! And she will never be my comrade!" the peacock dramatically screamed.

"Please, speak with respect! Ambers, you're the newest student yet you came right into this situation? Why did you do it?" he asked me.

"Headmaster Viado, I just accepted her challenge. I just defended myself from her atttacks. I just showed her that I have the right to give back the pain she gave me" I coldly answered.

The door suddenly opened and all the Elites popped up.

"Elites, you saw what's happening. Why didn't you stop them on purpose?" the old man angrily asked them all. They just bowed down and speak nothing.

"Because I commanded them not to" Brylle said. I looked at him. B-Brylle? Why?

"Elite Eslava why? Do you want a mess?" the old man asked once again.

"I just let the one express her feelings as I said. I want her to show what she feels so that it won't be stucked in her heart that may lead her in losing interest in her self. If I had done something wrong, detain me. If it's all my fault, kill me if you want to" he seriously said. You really aren't joking huh?

"Brylle" I whispered.

"All of you have done wrong. Starting right now, until tomorrow, you'll all be suspended. You're not allowed to get out from your dorms. Go now!" the old man said and we followed it. As we went outside, we stared at each other coldly and went straight to our dorm without any words.
