UNDER THE MASK - EPISODE 24

★★★★★

“Ursula you need to go” Asher said, coming down to her

” I’m here to stay, the coming together of everyone here can’t make me leave” she smirked

” Why exactly are you here?” Lett asked

” Stop butting in” she smirked, facing the students

” Annyeong, I’m Ursula Hong” she said

“Hong?, That’s Dean Asher’s surname, is she his…..wife?” The Juniors wondered

” You” she said, pointing at Kaitlyn

” Huh?” She said

” Show me a vacant room” Ursula smiled

Kaitlyn looked at the deans for approvals but got nothing

“I won’t leave, you know my stubborn spirit will forever remain intact so it’s better to make it quick” Ursula smiled

” Room 32″ Asher said

” Yes master” Kaitlyn replied and led the way

The room is just beside the library so it took a while

“Hey” Ursula Called from behind and Kaitlyn slowly looked back

*Yes my lady” she replied

” Call me sorceress” she replied

” Yes sorceress” she replied

” You catch on quickly, I love you for that, what’s your name?” She asked

” Kaitlyn Reed” she replied

” Oh, not bad” Ursula nodded and suddenly started sniffing the air

” The chrysanthemum scent” she whispered

I’ve always scented like that” Kaitlyn smiled

” The queen” Ursula said in her mind

“You probably don’t know who you are yet” Ursula said

“I already said I’m Kaitlyn” she replied

“You’re so naive” Ursula smiled

” I’m sorry” Kaitlyn replied

“Keep going” Ursula said and Kaitlyn continued the walk to Ursula’s room

They got there and when she opened the door, Ursula smiled. “Just what I love most, I love libraries and for the fact that Asher gave me this room beside the library, he really still cares” she smiled, looking around

The room is just like every room in AOS just that it has a mini library in a corner

“Perfect, thanks Kaitlyn” she smiled

“You….look different from when you just came” Kaitlyn said

” Yes, then I looked dangerous and mean, but now I look easy right?” She said, coming closer

” No I don’t mean you look easy, I mean you look friendly now” she quickly said

” Oh, right” Ursula said, stepping back and she pointed a finger on the bed, her bags landed on the bed

“I….I.. need to go” Kaitlyn said

“Sure, I hope we get along” Ursula replied, smiling again

Kaitlyn is already at the door when Ursula talked again

“Be careful” she said

Kaitlyn looked back and smiled. “Thanks sorceress” she replied and left

“It’ll be fun here” Ursula said, filling the small shelf with books

She suddenly stopped arranging and inhaled

“Why was I smiling so much when she was here?” She thought

*****

“What did she say?” Venus asked immediately Kaitlyn got out of the block

“She’s friendly a lot” Kaitlyn smiled

“Did you just say friendly?” Venus said surprisingly

” Like seriously she was friendly” Kaitlyn said again

“I heard she’s Dean Asher’s wife since nineteen years ago” Venus said

” Yes, they share same surname, that’s another evidence” Kaitlyn replied

” Gossipers” Rainbow said, passing by

“Better just shut your mouth and just piss off” Venus replied

Rainbow smiled and leaned on the wall

“I hate you a lot” she said

“It’s mutual I swear” Venus said

” Rainbow, you just have to stop this bitterness, it won’t help you” Kaitlyn said

” Special adviser, you tried” Rainbow said, rolled her eyes maliciously before leaving

“Don’t mind her” Venus said

“It’s fine, I need to go see my room, I’ve missed it” Kaitlyn replied

” Me too… I’ll see you around” Venus said and they parted ways.

****

” You think she has a mission for coming back?” Lett asked Asher immediately they got to their lodge

” I’m not sure, she’s a sorceress so we can’t underestimate her” Asher replied

” I wasn’t expecting you to take her in so easily” Lett heaved

” You know she won’t leave, she’s stubborn” Asher replied

” What about you?, You still feel something for her?” Lett asked

“I dunno, maybe I can cajole her to just let me see my daughter” Asher replied

” By the way, I changed the orb, I replaced it with a fake cos I have an hunch that something will happen concerning it soon” Lett said

” I felt that too, thanks for doing that” Asher said

“I just hope Ursula won’t cause trouble, she can be troublesome” Lett replied.

****

Athena won’t let go of Damon’s hand till they got to his room, she kept their hands interlocked and won’t stop smiling

To her right now, she’s the happiest in the whole world

” I missed you a lot” she said for the uptenth time

“Same here” he replied, smiling when he saw his keyboard and violin

“My babies” he said, rubbing the keyboard

He took his violin and kissed it slowly and that fleeting moment, she wished she’s the one he’s doing that to

“You must have missed them greatly” she said

“Of course” he replied and Moon suddenly came to his mind, he stood staring into space while thinking about her

“Damon” Athena Called

“Damon” she called again but he never heard

She touched him and he came back to his senses

“Huh?, You were saying?” He asked

She hugged him instantly. ” I don’t know but….I just feel like always staying with you” she said

****

Depp noticed the lodge of fame premises is silent and he stood to watch it from afar

It’s usually always silent but the silence is much today, he decided to try his luck

He vanished and appeared in the lodge pavilion and luckily he met no one

He made to take a step further and try breaking the enchantment but Mercury’s face appeared in his mind immediately, making him get sudden shocks

He layed low and bled from the nose lightly

“What’s… what’s happening to me” he thought and dissappeared to appear in his room.

Another attempt to steal the orb failed just because Mercury’s face appeared in his mind

He sat on his bed and his nose continued bleeding, getting heavier than before and he became scared

“Is bleeding my punishment this time around?, I might bleed till death” he thought fearfully, getting lots of tissues to wipe the blood but it kept bleeding and the mark on his back shined

“Yes .. it’s my punishment, damn you Cruella!’ he yelled, falling down from his bed in pains

He’s sweating a lot and right now, the blood he has lost from his nose is a lot

He bled till he passed out and fell on the floor.

****

Dinnertime**

Lynn and Min walked hand in hand during dinner to the hall, Yeontan is tagging along behind them happily, he missed them both so much and they had to bribe him with his best seaweed before he agreed to come down from their arms

“What do you think we’ll be eating?” Min asked

“Maybe kimchi or gimbab or .. spicy rice, or…

” Guess just one” Min said

“Rice cake” she smiled

He pecked her cheek and Tan whined behind them, making them smile widely

They got to the dinning hall and surprisingly they’re the third and fourth to get there

Eden, Damon and Mercury are there already

The hall kept getting filled up with students and Mercury got uncomfortable with Depp’s absence so she left for his room

Getting there, she was shocked to see him lying lifelessly on the floor with a bleeding nose

“Depp!” She almost screamed as she rushed to him and tilt him up

Depp’s body slipped off like a lifeless person and that really scared her

“Depp!, Depp!” She screamed, feeling his pulse but it’s slow, he’ll get greatly sick if he doesn’t wake up soon

Glad that he still has pulse, she started thinking of what to do to wake him and just then, the crazy idea came up

She inhaled hard before bending over to kiss his lips deeply, he coughed lightly

She quickly broke it and smiled. “You’re awake, I’m glad” she said, breathing heavily as he opened his eyes

” Mercury” he said slowly

“Yes it’s me, how are you feeling?” She asked

He let his tears fall and hugged her

“Hug me back please…I was so scared I thought I’d die, thanks for coming here, I love you prettiest” he said

She can feel his tears wetting her back but she doesn’t care, all that matters is that he’s ok right now and maybe when he has calmed down, he’ll tell her what happened

****

Dinning**

Truly, they met rice cake like Kaitlyn said

Eden won’t stop giving Min mean looks and Rainbow won’t stop giving Kaitlyn malicious looks too but they both don’t care, they kept eating and chatting with Venus and Damon and everything is going so well then Ursula appeared, making everyone go silent

Only her walking steps can be heard as she walked to their midst

Kaitlyn admires her a lot and won’t stop smiling at her magnificence

“You like her?” Min asked

“I told you she’s friendly” she replied

” Well… She looks mean right now” Venus said

” Maybe switch of moods” she replied

” Enjoy your dinner, but remember supernatural beings shouldn’t eat much” Ursula said, looking around and when her mean eyes found Kaitlyn, she smiled at her

“Are they close?” Rainbow thought, getting jealous again

Back then when Ursula was still with Asher, she used to hate her so they have no good record

“I can make some juice with your fruits” Ursula said

“We’d love some fruit juice” Damon replied

Ursula smiled and turned around swiftly, making her long hair flow with the air

All the fruits on the table accumulated in the air and smashed with each other as if there’s someone smashing them on each other

Bowls appeared and the smashed fruits fell in the bowl with a lot of juice already

Ursula rotated the bowls with her fingers and soon, the shafts separated from the juice and she used mind shift to distribute the juice into the cups of everyone

“Whoa!’ Kaitlyn said, loving her more. ” Her powers are whoa, she’s really a sorceress” she smiled

Venus drank the juice first and her eyes widened

“It’s not only sweet but cold” she said and that made everyone taste it too

” I’ve never tasted something like this before, it’s so sweet” Min said

Ursula smiled and her eyes met with Rainbow

“Thanks sorceress” everyone said

“What’s so special about it anyways” Rainbow said and poured away the juice in her cup before standing

“Crap” she said and started heading out

“Magical wind” Ursula said and Immediately, an heavy strong whirlwind entered the dinning and surrounded Rainbow, making her stop

“What are you doing you devil!” Rainbow ranted

” I hate arrogant personalities” Ursula smiled and sent just the two fingers formation to the whirlwind and it immediately started rolling Rainbow off her feet till it completely rolled her up and started turning her around in the air like a doll

“No!!!, No!!, No my head is about to fly off!!, No stop stop!!!!!” She screamed.
