UNDER THE MASK - EPISODE 5
★★★★★
“I’ll show you to your room” Venus said quickly
” I don’t mind” he replied and Venus led the way, he followed behind slowly, still stroking the Pet’s head and the pet kept licking his face in return
Students gathered in groups just to talk about him
“I love him!, I’ve never seen something like that before, he just pointed his pointer finger and the demon burned to ashes as if thrown into an unquenchable fire” one of the Juniors said..
” I know right?, He even knows the name of the demon, the demon knows him too and was even scared, this is exactly who we need here”
“Shut it everyone!, He’s nothing! ” Mercury yelled
Eden stepped forward. ” Don’t tell me you’re jealous as usual, he’ll make you vomit your intestines with a glare” he said mockingly
” That’s all you can do, you can’t even fight me” Mercury frowned
” Well someone who can fight you is here, nothing to be scared of” Eden replied, rubbing his chin as if to pull out beards
Mercury walked away in fury
“He’s cool” Rainbow said though she has a different thought inside
Depp left without saying a word

Min’s bag is already in his room when they got there, it actually dissappeared in the morning to appear here
The room is spacious with a closet and a sword hanger then a big bed on top of a stand, the floor was made with marbles and it’s shinning
Min placed Yeontan down and he sauntered round the room happily
“I love this room” Min said, facing Venus
“I’m glad you do, that’s how all the rooms are, spacious and cool” Venus smiled
” Wait is there a library here?” He asked suddenly
“Sure, the academy has a very big library with collection of many books about demons and supernatural beings” Venus replied
” I love that, I love reading books in the library all day” he smiled, sitting on the soft bed
” I love your personality” Venus suddenly said and Min faced her
” But I got here some minutes ago, how come you love my personality already?” He asked
” You’re cool, I mean, you defeated Oris with just pointing your finger, I don’t even know his name is Oris, no one knew till you came” Venus smiled
” Oh, I read a lot about demons and I know a whole lot of them according to their description in books, I’ve met a lot of them too” he replied
” Wait… you’re Min Lee?, That means you’re the son of Kyle Lee, the most powerful demon in the universe five years ago” Venus said, sitting beside him on the bed
” You’re right, but he’s a kind one” he replied
“I know, his death was really painful, but for the fact that he left an handsome and powerful son like you, it’s cool” Venus said
” Sure” Min smiled and Venus stood
“I’ll be on my way, I hope we become good friends” she said
“Sure, you’re the first person to talk at length with me immediately I arrived so we’re friends, and your name?” He asked
” Venus” she smiled and left
Min fell on the bed and closed his eyes
“I see a tragic future ahead, not for me, but for a lot of people” he sighed.

” Ma’am, may I use your phone?” Kaitlyn asked the tenth person, she’s actually standing in front of a temple, her face is sweaty and it reflects tiredness
Her lips is dried and her throat is parched as a result of hunger and thirst
“Ion have enough battery, and you look strange, ion trust strange people” the woman she asked for a phone replied and left
She bent down in frustration, that’s what they’ve all been saying
She almost cried till someone Pat her back, she slowly looked up and it turned out to be a girl like her but dressed like someone from the temple
“Young supernatural” the girl said with a big smile
“I don’t look strange to you?” Kaitlyn asked, standing up
“At all, I’ve seen a lot of supernatural beings as the daughter of a priest though none of them has a strange face like yours” the girl replied
“I read a book about supernatural beings, that’s how I got to know I’m one of them but how come I have a strange face?, I mean…I’m pretty” she said, touching her face
“I dunno why your face looks strange too but I know you’ll find the answer once you get to the academy” she replied
” You even know I’m going to the academy?”
” I know of your pains too, the sword mark at the back of your neck that causes you pains every moonlit night” the girl replied
Kaitlyn held her hand. ” You know a lot about me”
” Yes, by the way my name is Elaina, daughter of the priest of this temple” she smiled and handed a phone to her
” You can have it, I have another” she said
“Elaina…
” Don’t worry, you’ll be fine,but there’s a way to ease your pains every time it comes” Elaina said
” A way?”
“if your true love kisses the mark on your neck every moonlit night” Elaina said
” True love?” Kaitlyn asked
” Yeah, true love, destined love, and I believe you’ll meet him in the academy too”
” How do I recognize him?”
“you’ll just have the feel when it’s time to know” Elaina replied and the temple bell rang
” Time for the evening prayers, I have to go” Elaina said hurriedly
” Thanks Elaina, I appreciate, I hope we meet again” Kaitlyn waved
“Sure we will” she replied and entered the temple
Kaitlyn is about to leave when she remembered a bracelet she saw on Elaine’s wrist, same as the one she briefly saw on the wrist of the person she bumped into in the store earlier
“Was she the one who sticked the flyer on my jacket?” She wondered, bringing out the flyer
She sighed before dialling the number on it
“Hello” a cool male voice said
“Hi I’m Kaitlyn Reed, a supernatural and I’d like to join AOS” she replied straight
” Oh, good, when would you love to join?”
“Tommorow morning, I’m in front of Chogyesa temple” she replied
” Ok , 7:30 tommorow morning, you’ll find yourself in the woods of the academy, you have to find your way by yourself but be careful, tommorow is the demons parade, don’t get hurt” the voice said
” I’ll try not to, thanks” she replied and hung up
” Where do I sleep?” She asked herself and her stomach rumbled in hunger
She held it and looked at the temple again, then she decided to enter
She entered and the prayers is still going on, she sat and joined them in praying for almost ten minutes
The prayer was brought to an end and everyone dispersed
“You can use the room by the right in the priests chamber” someone said behind her
She looked back and saw a man
” Elaina told me to tell you that” he said
“Where’s she?”
“she’s currently not here”
” Oh, ok” she replied, holding her stomach in hunger again
” I’ll bring you food since she said you’re a special guest” the man said
Kaitlyn’s face brightened up. “Thanks sir, I’m grateful” she beamed and left for the room, it’s small but nice
She fell on the bed and almost immediately, a knock sounded on the door, she went to check and saw a girl with a tray of food
“For you” she said
*Thanks” she smiled and took it
The girl left immediately and Kaitlyn took the food in
“Now let’s eat” she smiled

Next morning**
Athena waited impatiently for when Damon will come out of the Lodge Of Fame with the Dean and kept roaming around the lodge
“You miss him that much?” Venus passed by
“Sure, who won’t miss their friends if they’re apart for a day” she smiled
” By the way, did you see the new supernatural yesterday?’ Venus asked
“No, but I heard the Juniors talking about him, they say he’s powerful” Athena replied
” Too powerful, I mean…oh!, Here is he!’ Venus said , facing Min who’s just coming out of the male chambers with only a white sweatshirt and white trousers
“Isn’t he gorgeous?” Venus asked
“You’re in love, how fast” Athena giggled
” Hey” Venus waved immediately he got to them
” Venus, how was your night?”
“Great, meet my friend, the academy maid, Athena” Venus said
” Nice to meet you” Athena waved
He’s about to say same when Eden arrived
“Hi, I’m Eden, nice to meet you,let’s be friends” he said
“whoa!, I can’t believe you guys wanna make friends with me, I’m boring” he replied
” But your powers aren’t” Eden said and they all laughed
” I was actually looking for the way to the library” he said
” Oh, I’ll take you!” Venus and Eden said at the same time
“Competition on who will get the shinny guy” Athena giggled
“Ok, we’ll both take you there” Venus said but almost immediately, the door to the lodge of fame opened and Damon came to view with Dean Asher
“Damon!” Athena waved and Damon replied with a wide smile, he looks different with just a day in the Lodge and even without trying out his powers,he looks more powerful too
“Min Lee” Dean Asher said, moving closer to him
“Yes master” he bowed
“Welcome to AOS, I wasn’t able to meet you yesterday cos I was busy with Damon in my lodge” he said
Min looked at Damon and they smiled at each other
“You both know each other?” Venus asked
“Sure, when dad was still alive,he comes with his dad to see my dad, we’re friends but since dad died, they stopped coming” Min explained
” Cool” Eden remarked
“Your sword should have been given to you right now but we’re expecting another student, when she arrives, we’ll hand over your swords to you together” Dean Asher said
Min bowed again.
” Master, the power training was cancelled and..
” I told the teachers to cancel it,I want to be the one to coordinate it, and it’ll start immediately the coming student arrives” Asher interrupted
*Yes master” Eden bowed
Asher left quietly
” I just love our dean’s personality” Venus said
” Me too” Min smiled and immediately hugged Damon
“I’ll beat you blue black, better not cross my lane” Min joked
“You too, better stay on your lane, I’m not simple” Damon replied and they all laughed
” Nice to have you here anyways” Damon said
“Thanks friend” Min replied
“Damon I fixed your keyboard and violin” Athena said
” Really?, How did you do it?” Damon asked her surprisingly
” Don’t ask how, I know you’ve missed pressing the keyboard and playing violin so let me go and show you your babies” Athena smiled
” You need to cook for us this morning, I can’t eat fruits again” Damon said
” I’ll cook, just come with me” she insisted, pulling him along
” I’ll see you around” Min said, leaving with Eden and Venus for the library.
“I’ll make sure I destroy you at any chance I get, I swear it” Mercury said bitterly from where she’s standing
” I’ll ruin you without your knowledge, no matter the intensity of your powers” Rainbow thought
” I need to go see Cyclops” Depp thought
*****
“I need a mask, the students at the academy Won’t have to say my face is weird too” Kaitlyn thought immediately she woke up the next morning
She searched her bag for one and luckily she found one
She has a lot of it cos she uses it sometimes when she gets tired of sad comments about her face
She used the face mask and felt better, it left out her lips, chin and eyes
“Thanks for showing me kindness Elaina, I’ll forever be grateful” she said slowly and closed her eyes
She opened it some minutes later and found herself in the woods of the academy, her bag is gone
She stood and watched her environment carefully, it’s silent and the silence is scary
She started taking steady steps as if the ground will break if she walks too fast
She hasn’t taken up to three steps when she suddenly fell, hurting her knees
“Ouch!” She sounded hurtfully, standing up but falling again
That was accompanied by a shrill laughter from behind her
She tried to stand but it’s Impossible as if something is holding her down
Then she started hearing footsteps and the laughter grew wider
The footsteps suddenly stopped
“What are you doing here weak supernatural?, Today is the demons parade here, aren’t you aware?’ the voice asked
“I…I’m…I’m not” Kaitlyn replied slowly
“Oh, I’m not concerned about that, for getting caught, you have to get punished” the voice said again
” You’re a demon?” She asked fearfully, still unable to stand, she can’t see the person talking still
“Cruella, that’s my name…the most cruel lady demon, now follow me” she said and ropes from nowhere tied Kaitlyn up
“No, no please, don’t take me!” She pleaded vehemently
Cruella started laughing again but her laughter was interrupted when someone appeared from nowhere, all Kaitlyn can see is white trousers in her position
“Cruella, let her go!” The male voice commanded
“Min Lee, stop meddling in what you don’t know” she replied
“On the count of one to five” Min replied
Cruella controlled the trees in that angle with her bulging eyes and it started falling all at once
“I don’t want to die!, I haven’t even found my true love!, Someone save me!” Kaitlyn screamed loudly and her scream made the falling trees stop, the ropes she was tied with loosened immediately and she stood
She saw the cruel toad and an handsome supernatural
“Special one?” Cruella said Immediately she inhaled her scent
Kaitlyn sent millions of bees to Cruella with her eyes but Cruella vanished before they can get to her
When they can’t find her, they went for Min
“Take them away!” Min screamed and no matter how much he tries, it seems he can’t take them away
It’s only her who has that ability but she forgot how to do it, she lost the ability to concentrate that minute and Min has no choice but run
He even forgot he has the power to vanish that instant, he continued running and the swam of angry bees kept running after him
Kaitlyn ran after the bees, thinking about how to make them go, she isn’t conversant with how to use or reverse most of her powers yet
Thanks to Min’s stars that he’s a good runner, he ran till he got to the academy and the bees invaded the whole academy
The seniors and the Juniors ran helter skelter for the fear of bees when none of them knows how to make them go
Mercury bumped into Depp while they were both running and they both fell into the blue pool.
