Theodore: Master of magic! and bees...

(Warning: there will be gore in this, this chapter is important to the story.)

Theodore steps over to Arthur first to give Allison a demonstration. He takes his hand over Arthur's stomach and suddenly his hand glows dark yellow. "This is a nonaggressive spell, will even make a bear think you're a good guy" He then walks over to Allison and does the same. "Out we go!" He steps out the back door and the teenagers follow. "What about you Theodore? Why aren't you using the spell on yourself?" Allison curiously asks Theodore.

Arthur answers for him "It's because Master has been in there to the point where the bees thinks he's one of them, even if they tried something he could just use magic to fry them." Theodore flashes a smirk and Allison shudders.

They walk out into a huge garden with many different colored boxes and flowers surrounding them. The sound of chirping birds, crickets, and the buzzing of bees fill their ears as they enter the large garden. Theodore steps over to one of the boxes, this one said: Normal Bees/Dec. 28. 114

"Here is the first apiary" Theodore takes out a frame of the blue apiary after opening the lid with a special tool.

"Wow look at that, a nice harvest of honey" Theodore says while smiling. He hands the frame to Arthur who begins pushing the bees off, then after all the bees are off he scrapes the honey off and puts it into a pot, doing so quite elegantly "Theodore will melt it later and separate the honey and the wax." Allison looked on in fascination. "You're so good with your hands!" She cheekily whispered into his ear.

Arthur froze up whereas Theodore flashed a smile at the sight of his student getting flirted with. They continued going around, taking a certain percentage of honey. Only so much the bees could spare. They got to see many different bees and different types of magical kinds of honey. Allison is quite fascinated with both the fire and the frost bees. Arthur had seen them all before but spent time with Allison. Laughing and chatting while doing something relaxing felt amazing.

A few hours later they were done It was decently hard work and very rewarding. On their way out Theodore rewarded them with a new thing he called ice cream, which he made with frost honey. They walked over to the Cliffside by the ocean and sat in the grass while looking out and eating their cold treat. Holding each other's hands. after the sun had nearly set, they went back to the orphanage together. and as they went up the stairs Allison said she had to go to the yard for some herbs for tomorrow's breakfast.

Arthur understood as she does this every night before bedtime. Before she goes, however, she gives him a little peck on the cheek and whispers "I had fun today, I hope I can join you and Theodore more times" her lips hovering next to his ear as she smiles. Arthur, now completely flushed whispers back "Yeah, that'd be awesome" Allison snickered and waves goodbye as she rounds the corner of the orphanage. Arthur stands there a little starstruck before finally entering through the door.

After kicking off his shoes, the lanterns on the walls turn off and it's completely dark. He suddenly feels his legs getting kicked and is pushed to the floor. "Fucking pussy, you made me cut the grass again." a manly voice says in disdain. "And I had to do the dishes again. Just because you can't take a joke" a girl said. his back gets kicked when he tries to stand up causing him to fall back to the floor. He tries to shout for help, but then he felt that something was stuffed in his mouth.

"I've had enough of you, we all have. you getting all close to Allison. It's sickening to look at." the manly voice says "You obviously don't understand how the hierarchy works here. And with no one to save you. we can finally teach you" The feminine voice says with spite as Arthur gets kicked in the stomach They continue to kick him, several more times. In the stomach, and his face, Arthur could feel his nose and mouth be filled with blood, with bruising around on his body. They stomped on his feet and hands. Arthur tries to scream but he's muffled. No one can hear him. Suddenly a sound comes from the stairs "They found out we're gone. Quick, grab him and follow me" The manly voice said as they each pick up one of Arthur's legs. Dragging him out to the chilly outside as he passes out.

Arthur wakes up, tied up. He now sees that he's back at the cliff he ate ice cream at before. "We can't let him tell Marida if he does. We'll be taken to that room." Raina says. "I know, I know. I'll just do the same thing I did to Marquez." Will answers

Arthur's eyes widen, the staff said that he ran off. He had even overheard them saying they found the top part of his ribcage with organs hanging about, the flesh on him seemingly gone with his skull bashed open.

Arthur thought it was a one-time thing. A freak accident. But no, a duo of children tricked a staff full of adults. Arthur's blood boils at the thought, the staff never took their job seriously.

If you think I should change the warning tag, please tell me. For I found no information about it on the internet.
