BlackCrown 25 BlackCrown: The First Year I Pt. 25

They came to a stop by a bench. Grabbing their phone that was attached to their armband, they looked at the screen.

The number was not one they knew, but they still answered it.

"Hello? Is this thing connected?"

A voice called out from the other end of the phone. It seemed to be there first time using a phone by the way they spoke.

"Sensei?"

"Haha, it worked! I see you can still recognize my voice, Nick."

"Of course, how could I forget you? You taught me everything I know."

"Indeed. Listen, I wanted to tell you I won't be in the States for a while."

"Why?"

"Just listen, will you. I am going back to my hometown in Japan; I don't know how long I'll be there so make sure you continue with your training. I'll be sure to have your senior brother keep an eye on you. That unemployed lazy bum, I feel sorry for his parents."

Nick wanted to reply, but he held his tongue back. The parent you were feeling sorry about was yourself!

"Alright. Was that all you called for?"

"No, you attend Demeter academy right?"

"Yes."

"Good. My friend's daughter will be transferring in, make sure you take good care of her."

"How'd… never mind."

Nick wanted to ask his sensei how would she transfer in when the academy was no longer accepting applicants. Nick gave up asking about it; his teacher's connections were vast it wasn't unlikely that if she pulled a few strings, she could get someone to attend the academy.

"Whats her name?"

"Katherine McDonald."

"McDonald?"

When he heard his sensei say one of her friend's daughters were transferring in, he was sure it was someone from one of the ten families. However, he has never heard of any family with the last name of McDonald.

The ten families were the ten most influential people in the states. Their EXO abilities were passed down through genes since it was so strong and dominant. If a child was not born with their families ability, they were either tossed to the side or given a chance to be apart of the side branch. Which was not much different from being thrown aside, the only difference was you got to use their last name.

"Don't think about it too much, I have to go now. This guy keeps begging for his phone back and talking about calling the cops."

The phone call ended, and Nick stretched his legs out.

Why did his sensei want him to watch someone else's child? She could have at least asked him if he would do it instead of telling him to.

Once he stretched his legs out, he continued with his night run.

At this time the campus was empty of night, not one person could be seen. Nick made his way back to his dorm as he noticed someone coming out. They were wearing sweatpants and a long sleeve shirt. They both walked right past each other.
