UNDER THE MASK - EPISODE 19
★★★★★
“It was a mistake” Mika said, going on her knees
“Mika Kasi, no forgiveness for the sin you committed because you clearly did it out of freewill, so here’s your punishment” Dean Wang said
Everyone went silent, waiting for what will happen
” You have to split seventy Stones to pieces without using your sword, use your hand, it’ll serve as your weapon” Dean Wang said
” Huh?” Mika said, looking up immediately
” You heard him right” Min smiled
“Dean pardon me this once, I won’t ever try it again, dean please I won’t…. ”
Dean Wang walked away before she could finish that and immediately, the stones she’s to split appeared before her
She accepted fate and stood, she walked confidently to the stones and used telekinesis to move one forward
Even with her powers, she knows she won’t be able to do it easily but she built up confidence and raised her hand
“Yaaaa!!” She screamed, bringing her hand down to the stone but her whole body shaked immediately her hand made contact with the stone, it’s hard
Her hand got wounded badly but she never relented till she started sweating and bleeding from the hand
She almost lost hope before she’s able to split one
“She’ll die at this rate” Moon said
“She won’t, she’ll just lose several years of cultivation and powers” Min replied
Inside Kaitlyn, pity is already building up as she watched her
She made to leave the place but Min held her
“Judging by the look on your face, I know you’re going to meet Dean Wang” he said
She kept mute but later talked, by now, Mika is on the third stone out of seventy
“I really can’t stand and watch anymore” she said pitifully
“why can’t you just let her get punished for her wrongs” Min said
“I’m sorry, I just have a heart that’s too soft” she replied, leaving for the dean’s office
” By the way, where’s Damon?” Eden noticed
“He left for somewhere important I guess” Depp replied
****
AOS**
Damon appeared in the healing room with Athena in his arms and almost immediately, Asher and Lett appeared there too
“Damon” Asher said
“We sensed an additional presence, that’s why we traced you here” Lett said
Damon placed Athena on the bed gently
“She was attacked by Serpentine” he said
“So that’s the meaning of the revelation I saw about her yesterday, that’s why I warned her about coming out at night no matter what” Asher said
” She must have been lured with something, serpentine is crafty” Lett said
Asher felt her pulse. ” She’s ok, she’ll be fine” he said
“Master please, let two juniors take care of her pending when I’ll be finally back” Damon asked
” I’ll do that” Asher said
” I still have things to do before going back, just five minutes” he said
Asher and Lett left the place to give him privacy
He touched her hair slowly. “I’m sorry for coming late to save you, please don’t ever get hurt again” he said
He found a paper and pen to write her a note.
****
Mount Vernon**
Mika is on the twentieth stone and at this rate, she might not reach thirty before slipping into coma
Dean Wang appeared and the students bowed
“Stop!” He ordered
Mika looked up wearily, her both hands is bleeding badly with wounds allover them, dropping on the ground
She’s sweating like someone locked in a fire cave
“Punishment cancelled, Kaitlyn pleaded on your behalf, you should know how to comport yourself from now on” he said and left immediately
Mika lost consciousness and fell, Moon and Venus rushed to carry her out of the place
“You’re too kind hearted” Min said
“That’s just my personality” Kaitlyn smiled
Damon appeared right in front of them and Eden gasped
“You scared me!” He said
“I went to AOS” he said
“Long distance teleport, showing off your abilities huh?” Eden joked
” Athena was actually… ” Damon said
“What happened to Athena!” Kaitlyn asked impatiently
“She was attacked by Serpentine” he replied sadly
” What!, How did that happen? ” Min asked
“I don’t know, he must have used something to lure her out into the woods, but she’s ok, luckily I was able to save her” he replied
” That’s a relief” Kaitlyn inhaled.
***
Rainbow smiled, entering Mika’s room in which she was layed on her bed, still unconscious
“Ok, I accept, we’re both weak, I accept, and that’s why we should come together to destroy the enemy” she said
Seems her voice woke Mika up

She spranged up and looked at Rainbow somehow
“What are you doing here?” She asked
“Sorry about your defeat the other time” Rainbow said
” Are you here to mock me?” Mika said, feeling pains from her bandage hands
” I guess you won’t be able to use your hands for some days, so now you know how much her powers is, and despite the fact that she caused it, she pleaded on your behalf, now you see how cunning she is” Rainbow said
” That she pleaded on my behalf doesn’t change anything cos I won’t stop at anything till I destroy her” Mika said
” That’s the spirit” Rainbow smiled
***
Depp stepped into the demons coven where the thousands of demons are waiting as if it’s his house
He sat beside Cruella and cleared his throat
“Why the call?” He asked
Serpentine made to wound him but Al Ana stopped him
” Talk with him first” she said
“Why are you taking things slow?” Serpentine asked
” Because I have my plans” he replied
” What plan?, This is the perfect time to steal the orb since the so-called queen and the other seniors aren’t around” Cruella said
” You guys think it’s easy?” Depp replied
” Then why did I give you powers when you still find it hard!” Cruella ranted
Depp stood and smirked
” I don’t know!, All I know is that if you guys want it!, Wait till I willingly bring it, stop trying to suffocate me !” He said and flew out of the place
Serpentine flew after him and grabbed him in the air, tossing him and making him land on the ground with wounds on his forehead
Serpentine landed beside him
“Second warning from me, the third Won’t be as friendly as this” he said and vanished
****
Depp tried to sneak into the academy so no one will see him but he didn’t escape Mercury who’s standing at the balcony
She rushed after him and met up with him by his doorstep
She held his hand and he faced her
“You’re hurt?, Did you meet with the demons again?, Did they do this?’ she asked
“I’m fine” he replied and made to go again but she never let him go
He looked back and without warning, he pulled her into his room and hugged her tightly
“I love you” he said slowly
“What happened to you?” She asked
He only pulled her closer without saying a word.
***
Walking round Mount Vernon practice ground, Damon can’t take his mind off Athena, he’s greatly worried as hell
He sat at a point and inhaled hard. “Please be fine” he said
“Missing someone?” Moon’s voice said behind him
He looked back and smiled
” Not really, just thinking about a friend” he replied
“Is she sick?” Moon asked, sitting beside him
” I never said she’s a girl” Damon replied
“But I know” Moon replied
“Yes, she’s sick and I’m greatly worried” he said
” You just have to hope for the best, it helps” she replied
He faced her and smiled slightly
“What?” She asked
“The gun ability, I mean… shooting with your fingers, it’s cool” he said
” Everyone says that cos it’s a unique ability and I’m the only one who has it here” she replied
” It’s really Unique” he said
” By the way, you were cool back then too, I mean, your moves” she said
He smiled at her again and she returned it brightly
” Friends?” She asked
“Sure” he replied.

Min sat on the stool beside Kaitlyn and watched her sleep just like yesterday
“She’s pure, has a beautiful soul which means she’s beautiful, she’s kind and really has the qualities of a queen” he thought and his mind drifted back to the books he took yesterday
He vanished and appeared in his room, he took the books from his bedstand and sat to read…
Ten minutes later**
He’s reading the last book and it seems it contains what he wants to know.
*The queen cowry is the first tear she sheds in the presence of her king, it turns to a cowry and the cowry serves as a connection between them*
“What!” Min stood
He continued reading…
*The king of a supernatural queen is the man who gets the cowry and he’s the one who should kiss her seven times under seven moon to make the moon sword mark and pains dissappear*
Min stopped reading and stood, sweating and breathing heavily, almost not believing his eyes.
“I’m……the king?”
