4 Chapter 3: Witness

Cecilia:

Students gathered around the windows facing towards the back. Many already gone to the bathroom, throwing up what breakfast they had from seeing what a deformed state Cole had been reduced to. A voice came over the loudspeaker, "All students. Please return to class. I repeat. All students return to class!"

Students whispered to each other gazing at the frightening scene they had just witnessed.

"Did you see that? He just killed a student!"

"It takes more than that to kill cole...He's probably just resting…"

"Resting my ass dude. He's dead!"

Two more figures approached the crowd. A tall woman with straight black hair and a slender figure, and a pale blond boy, slightly shorter than the average student.

Students turned back to reveal their gazes of authority. They didn't speak a word but the students already knew who they were.

"What is the student president and the vice doing here?"

"Gee man I don't know...maybe the fact that Cole just got his ass handed to him!" a pair of students started bickering.

The two students who had just arrived were now walking up to the windows, students moving aside in fear and awe as if they would be struck down from just being in their way.

The students started dispersing see that the most powerful person in the school had come to see what had happened.

Through the dark paned glass, the woman looked woefully at Cole's destroyed body.

"Think he's still alive?" the smaller of the two asked, playing with a square-shaped toy in his hands. "I doubt it," the woman said still staring at Cole and the boy next to him. The boy had no defining features except the fact that he looked like he was talking to himself. 'What an odd boy' She wondered to herself. She looked closer with enhanced eyes to see if she missed anything, but there was nothing.

"You think he's crazy for talking to himself like that?" asked the Vice.

"It's a possibility. Those who wield immense strength are often a little of their rocker," the president flashed a quick smile.

Looking further at the boy outside, walked over to Cole and placed both of his hands over the decrepit Cole.

'That's odd. Is he trying to save a dead man?' The president thought, intrigued by him.

"Is he trying to save him now? Shouldn't we stop him from doing anything?!" the vice stood up from laying on the windowsill, directly faced to the president.

"Cecilia you have to stop him from destroying any evidence!" He shouted.

"Calm your tits Haruto, all of those people saw what happened. There's already plenty of witnesses that saw it," Cecilia shot a look at Haruto, "There's no point if he does what he's going to do."

"Bu-,"

"No buts," Cecilia interjected

Haruto sighed and turned down the empty hallway. Cecilia turned back to the window. A Large blue glow penetrated the one-sided glass piercing her eyes. In shock, she strengthened her eyes to see what was going on down below. Squinting to see through the brilliant light.

Pushing herself, even more, her efforts paid off as she peered through the light at a boy. His hands cradling a man's head, glowing with pulsing light. Cecilia looked closer at the boy laying on the floor, 'Is that Cole?' she thought, staring curiously at what was in front of her.

In a split second, her attention shifted. the stump on the man's leg started...reforming? Within a minute, Cecilia saw bone, muscle, blood, and skin put back together as nothing had happened. She saw his body reformed and put back together in the span of a few minutes.

The light died as soon as it came alive, Cecilia now looking straight at the two down on the ground. She clasped her hands to her mouth, "T-tha-that's not possible," she sputtered out.

'Cole was dead, there's no denying it. What did that guy do?'

Cecilia looked around trying to find anyone that had just seen the same thing she saw. "I'm not crazy, I'm not crazy, I'm not cra-," Faculty members of the school rushed outside, encircling him and Cole. One of them spoke out.

"Mr. Smith, please come with us to the Headmaster's office."

One of the faculty reached out for his arm, but the boy moved away. The member moved more intently for him.

Cecilia watched closely as the member stopped dead in their tracks.

She watched the boy's arm go limp, his body falling soon after. The faculty members dived in to save his body from touching the ground.

"God," one of the faculty sighed, "The first day at school and he's already doing shit like this?!"

They picked him up, whilst the others tended to the now alive Cole, moving as swiftly as they can as if not wanting others to be watching.

'What do they have to hide?' she wondered, But there were more pressing questions she wanted to be answered.

'Who was that guy?'
