My name belongs to me only

Avoiding the others

After the memory wipe, Daniel only left the part of Lucia and Drake’s fight and didn’t feel the need to cut out any other part of his memory to arouse. Drake woke up, but his body felt too weak to do that. Martin was already out of the infirmary and was heading over to Drake to give a lecture about endangering his classmates but was met with him on the floor unable to move his body next to an unconscious Moses drooling in his sleep. He opened his mouth to complain but was interrupted by the clapping of students, whose memories were altered exactly as Daniel wanted them to be and were cheering Drake, leaving Martin confused and worried, but Daniel mouthed to him.

‘Don’t worry, I made sure they didn’t remember Lucia being shot and instead her liume backfired on her.’

‘How did you do it?’ Martin mouthed back to him, interested in what way the boy standing in front of him used.

‘Master Glenn said it’s classified information between me and him, no outsiders are allowed to know this,’ Daniel mouthed his words in pleasure, watching Martin’s intrigued face turn into one of disgust and suddenly lost interest in the topic and carried Drake to the nurse’s office, for Victoria to check on him after she hid Lucia’s state, as Martin mouthed the same words to her that Daniel had told him.

Lucia grumbled in her sleep, which almost woke Drake up, but her sound of discomfort was reduced as she woke up from her slumber and noticed Drake on the other bed.

‘I should leave, he doesn’t need to see my face.’

“Miss Alaric, there is no need to leave the room.”

The girl reluctantly stopped and stared at Drake’s face before holding her head and resting it back on the pillow, allowing herself to drift into a dreamless sleep, unknown to her, when the unconscious boy nearly opened his eyes before closing them again, making Victoria and Martin sigh in relief with the teacher leaving her office and heading for the staff meeting.

Meanwhile, in The Timberline house, Rico was clearing his paperwork before having a bad feeling, which didn’t go unnoticed by the dirt blonde infant, who was staring intently at his father. The young boy observed his father’s reaction change from being serious to confused and then to worried. The little boy crawled up to his father, who was surprised by his son’s presence, but carried him swiftly in his arms, carefully supporting his weight and ruffled his blonde hair and stared at him with the emerald eyes he inherited from his mother.

“Where is your mother?” Rico had rested Sebastian’s back on his chest to make him more comfortable in his embrace, while he played with his tiny hands and kept sucking his thumbs, which made Rico remember he was still three.

“Mommy was busy playing with me.”

“Where is she?” He asked curiously.

The named female had arrived on time holding a bottle and a napkin for the boy, as she giggled at the sight of her husband and child, who stared back at her with blank expressions.

“Seb, why are you here?”

“I was looking at daddy.” The little boy pointed to his father, who bent down and placed him on his feet, as he walked up to his mother and carried him, with his mouth occupied by the bottle filled with warm milk.

“Is something wrong with Drake?” She asked with Sebastian in her arms, who had finished with his lunch as he was slowly falling asleep and placed it into the cradle next to Rico’s desk. Christa walked up to the desk as her hands were free.

“I am not sure, maybe I should ask Glenn about it.” Rico sat back on his chair with his chin resting on his hands with Christa hugging him from the back. He removed one of his hands and intertwined it with hers, before she removed it and pecked him on the cheek.

“While you contact Glenn, I will contact Jake to check up on Lucy,” She proclaimed, leaving the black-haired man with paperwork and a sleeping blonde-haired boy.

Back at the Cirano Academy, Lucia had been sent home to be taken care of by her family, which was covered by having a terrible fever, to convince Drake not look too suspicious in front of the other students. Drake woke up an hour later and left the nurse’s office, who seemed not to leave him alone for more than ten minutes.

Drake was annoyed with the spotlight being on him, he was used to the attention of the audience on him but wasn’t in the mood for it, as the principal’s sister followed him to each class, making his fellow peers worried, including the teachers.

{Looks like someone is going to blow, and by that, I mean you.}

‘I wonder why,’ His sarcasm dripping out of control, it was his coping mechanism, and he wasn’t letting that go away.

{Draky, how are you feeling?}

‘Annoyed and thankful for the next class.’

{You mean luimsology?}

‘My favourite class should be able to lower down my annoyance.’

{Or maybe Urani isn’t on your side today. What’s the name Earth dwellers call it?}

‘It’s called bad luck and no such thing does exist.’

{But magic exists.}

‘For all I know, this could be the imagination of a child who doesn’t want to face reality.’

There was no response from Jade, which was oddly suspicious.

He was about to question her before he was hit by numerous books, constantly hitting his head repeatedly.

“You deserve it!!” He was shouted by a brunette haired girl, who looked around sixteen years old, in her final years of the academy but wasn’t in the Academy’s uniform and was rather in a simple red shirt, with block letters saying ‘WEIRD’ and black trousers.

‘Weird.’

“Stop judging my outfit!!” She shouted at him, while putting on her cat-eye shaped turquoise-framed glasses and ran away from the corner, while Drake was recovering from the pain he received from the books falling on him.

“I wonder what that was about.”

He stood and sighed, walking to his next class, and picking the middle row as he sat in the middle of his other classmates, who barely talked to him as he felt the need to avoid Daniel.
