• Chapter 2

    Bash's secret

    “OH MY GOD FOR REALS!!!” they all screamed excitedly even Ai did out of

    surprise. “Yep I’m going to Cross Heart Academy, is there something wrong with that?” he asked

    all of his friends, not knowing what the big deal was. They all in return grinned

    at him as Sabrina spoke up and said, “Were all going to the same school”

    after she had said that a huge smile grew on Jay’s face as he then reached

    out picking all of his friends up and taking all of them into a giant bear hug. By

    now no one was really that shocked or surprised, since they all knew about

    Jay’s strength, but one thing was certain not only did a friend come home, a

    brother came back as well. Soon after everyone got through thinking about

    this they all hugged him happily their friend was home and they hoped it

    stayed that way. After a day of greetings and remenicing the old times, the

    gang decided to head to the store to start shopping for supplies they knew

    they would probably need at the academy. “Hey guys” said Kenta all of a

    sudden gaining everyone’s attention “I was just wondering…” he started

    out “What does the academy we’re going to look like, I mean I haven’t heard

    about it until just last year when we graduated” he said with a little

    cautiousness hinted in his voice. At that moment Jay looked at him with a your

    right expression and so did the others “This is kind of weird” Maria said now

    cautious also, when all of a sudden they heard Ai’s voice “My mom said it’s a

    special school for students with powers like ours, she said we would love it

    there and that it would be just like are old school.” said Ai with a small smile

    on her face. Even she still felling a little weary and cautious like the others. At

    this moment to break the silence Sabrina smiled which caused her to laugh

    and say “Oh my god if I have to take potions again I’ll crack” with this

    everyone giggled but then Jay added in “Just pray the lab doesn’t crack first”

    with this everyone busted out laughing in whole hearted laughter, soon after

    that they went back to shopping for supplies. As they continued to shop they

    bought the needed supplies like cooking utensils since they would have there

    own kitchen, they bought clothes, TV’s, also the oh so… boring needed things

    for classes. After they finished shopping they loaded all their stuff up into the

    car and dropped there stuff off at Maria’s before they walked to go get some

    food at Demonic Pizza and celebrate their friends return. Once they got to the

    Demonic Pizza they were surprised to see there old friend Bash from school

    sitting there drinking a coffee while reading a magazine and chewing on pizza.

    When he looked up he smiled and gave a small wave for them to come

    over. “Hey guys long time no see” said Bash who was sitting there reading a

    book called -The putting and taking apart of the most rarest cars ever-. Seeing

    that book in his hand Maria rolled her eyes and smiled, remembering one of

    their friends from school wanted her to give him something and so she did,

    Maria held out her hand and gave him the new special car series, which was

    about 12 different books that looked like very thick dictionary’s all together, at

    seeing the books his eyes widened, making the look larger than saucers. “ar-

    are those fo-for me” he asked in utter shock not believing what was in her

    hand, he was shocked because what she had was not only a new series but

    one of the most hardest to find, not even suppose to be released until the

    year 2020 and they are suppose to cost over 99mill. Seeing the look on his

    face she just smiled and said “Yep there for you” she knew if Bash didn’t have

    his guy pride he would have squealed but again she just smiled and handed it

    to him. “Lord… how did you get these?” he asked with a look of awe on his

    face, which again made her smile and say “A friend from are class last year

    asked me to give it to you”. He then smiled and asked “Does this mysterious

    friend name somehow begins with R?” he asked with the usual smirk written

    all over his face, which usually means I know I’m right. After a couple of

    minutes of talking we sat down with him and started eating pizza, talking

    about the usual things making each other laugh or just stop eating out of fear

    that we might choke. “God this feels so good” Jay said as he started chugging

    his coke and eating some pizza, “What’s good Jay” asked Kenta now looking

    up from one of the books Bash let him see. “The pizza dude!! It’s awesome,

    also the fact I get to be with you guys again.” He said with that funny yet cool

    cheesy grin he was always able to muster up so he could make everyone

    smile. After awhile of smiling and continuing to talk Bash asked the dreaded

    question “So you guys ready for are new lives at Cross Heart Academy?” at

    this everyone looked down at the ground and started to think about the

    useless things like how it was 20,000 miles away from home and how they

    probably wouldn’t like it there. Looking up from his new books and seeing how

    depressed his question made everyone he came up with an idea to make

    them feel better. “Hey guys how about you come spend the night at my

    house” he said with a broad smile on his face, never being invited over to

    Bash’s house before they decided to think for a moment before screaming

    together “sure why not”. Bash looked at them with a smile “Ok then let me

    pay for the food and I will take you guys by your houses so you can get your

    stuff” he stated while paying for the food and starting to head out to his car

    with us right behind him now. At this moment Maria looked at him a little

    confused before asking “Are you really going to take all of us home?” hearing

    the question he smiled at all of us and said yes. After he said this we

    smiled “But your paying for gas” he stated after making everyone give him a

    blank look before whispering “cheep skate”. On the way to Sabrina’s house to

    get her things they ran into her long time crush Ray, who she used to go

    watch play soccer, as Maria saw her goggling at him she grinned and yelled

    out the window of the car “WHAT’S UP RAY” after she did this Sabrina grabbed

    her and pulled her back into the car before screaming. “WHAT THE HELL WERE

    YOU THINKING?” obviously still embarrassed that her long time friend/sister

    would do something to embarrass her that much. “I thought you would want

    him to look this way” Said Maria trying her best to look as innocent as possible

    but unfortunately for her Sabrina didn’t by it and before she knew it she was

    being grabbed from behind and being put into a choke hold. As Maria

    pretended to be hurt and go limp in Sabrina’s arms everyone started to crack

    up. As they finally reached Sabrina’s house Bash parked the car near the

    street and waited for them to get back with Sabrina’s stuff, the group went

    inside to help her pack and waited while she told her parents her goodbyes,

    since they were going to Cross Heart Academy from Bash’s house, after she

    finished her farewells they all went outside and helped her fit her things into

    the trunk of bashes car, soon after they drove off ready to reach there final

    destination, Bash’s house. While they started on there two hour long drive to

    Bash’s everyone fell asleep except for him, but someone was not having

    sweet dreams. As Maria slept she started to toss and turn in her seat waking

    up her other friends who then watched, as they could tell she was gaining a

    fever because of a nightmare. After awhile of tossing and turning Maria shot

    up releasing a piercing scream which made everyone’s blood run cold, “Maria..,

    Maria…., MARIA!!” screamed Ai as she shook her shoulders trying to get her to

    snap out of it which she finally did. “Maria are you ok now?” asked Kenta

    putting his hand on her shoulder, after he did this Maria looked at the ground

    and nodded her head still a little frightened but after awhile she fell asleep

    resting her head on Ai’s lap. “What the hell just happen…”Asked Bash still a

    little shocked at what happened, Jay then looked at him then back down

    before saying “Maria isn’t just an Assassin she is also something else we and

    her just don’t know what but we do know she can see anyone’s even her own

    past, present, or future and trust me most of her visions could drive the most

    strongest monster alive insane” he said now quieting. Bash’s eyes widened

    before he looked at everyone else an asked “Is that true?” Sabrina sighed

    now looking at the ground “Yes it’s true, but that isn’t her only power she has

    a lot more, that she has yet to reveal.” Sabrina said but by the look on her

    face Bash knew not to ask anymore. As they finally reached Bash’s house

    Maria woke up and smiled like nothing had happened, after a minute she

    crawled out the car and got some bags so she could help take them inside of

    Bash’s house, soon after everyone was done giving her worried glances they

    started to do the same. As they walked Into Bash’s home almost everyone

    dropped what they were holding out of shock since on the outside Bash’s

    house looked so small but on the inside it was bigger than a mansion. After

    we turned to look at Bash he grinned before saying “Sorry guys for not telling

    you but I’m…rich” we then looked at him and smiled before we all said at the

    same time “Your secret is safe with us, we wont tell even the most deadliest

    soul”. At this he smiled then lead everyone up to his room, it was bigger then

    an entire house space which in our world is freaking huge. After awhile he

    pulled out a bed for everyone so they all would have somewhere to sleep,

    soon after he did this he decided to go take a shower so he could get clean

    again. Ding! Ding! At hearing the doorbell ring Maria went to the front door an

    answered it, at the door stood Rei who was also a good friend of theirs and

    right next to her stood Saya also another good friend of theirs. Both girls

    smiled at her and she grinned right back “Hey Maria, Bash invited us he said it

    would be good if the whole gang came so we could go to the school

    together.” Said Rei, at hearing this Maria smiled and told them to come right

    in. After they came in she started to shut the door only for it to be stopped by

    a foot, when she looked up to see who it was her eyes widened as she

    screamed Pervert. After she did that the person in the doorway glared at

    her “I’m no pervert so get over it” the mysterious person said, which only

    made her smile at him with her own devious grin she loved to use when she

    had a plan “What if I don’t” the boy then glared at the poor girl and after then

    replied with a “I will knock you over and come in” completely laced with his

    own threat. Looking at him slightly becoming annoyed she yelled out “BASH

    THERE IS A PERVERTED BOY AT THE DOOR!!!” before the boy could even blink

    Bash appeared in a flash with a shotgun in hand. “HEY BUTTHOLE WHAT DO

    YOU WAN…Tai is that you?” the frightened boy look at Bash and nodded his

    head quickly. “Oh dude I’m so sorry” Bash said feeling a little bad for scaring

    his friend, now putting the gun down he ushered him in with a grinning Maria

    right behind them. When they entered the room Tai looked up to see Ai and so

    he tried to hurry over to her so he could flirt a little, but he was instantly

    deflated once he saw Ai’s friend Kenta wrap his arm around her waist. 2 hours

    after talking and catching up with friends Bash started to lead them upstairs

    to his room so they could get some sleep none of them knowing tomorrow

    would bring them into a whole new adventure.
