UNDER THE MASK - EPISODE 9
Min stopped abruptly when he got to the corner in the hallway , deciding not to let others know
“What if it’s her secret?, I’ll just take care of her and wait till she wakes up” he thought and took her to his room
He gently placed her on the bed and sighed
There are still stains of blood on her chin, the blood she cried
“I can’t take off her mask” he thought, getting a face towel
He wiped the blood on her chin with it and sat beside her on the bed
“In my years as a supernatural, I’ve never met a supernatural whose powers are greater than mine, but I got to know her powers are greater than mine tonight” he thought, staring at her on the bed
He remembered the cowry her tear turned to the other time and opened his palm, it’s still there
He checked it out admiringly, it has shinning edges like gold and the white colour is extraordinarily white
“Why will her tear turn to cowry?, I’ve never heard of that before” he thought, still staring at it
” Maybe it’s connected to why she uses mask all the time, no one has seen her face” he thought, shifting his glance to her again
“She’s stronger than anyone here for the fact that she’s stronger than me” he thought confusedly again
He stood from the bed and paced round the room. “Who’s she?”
Tan jumped on the bed with Kaitlyn and tried taking off her mask with it’s teeth
“No stop!, She surely has a reason for covering it up” Min said quickly
Tan reluctantly obeyed and slept beside her
“Good boy” Min smiled
***
Demons coven**
Al Ana smiled devilishly, entering the coven with her cat in her hand
Cruella is on her seat already with Serpentine
“Why this sudden meeting?” Al Ana asked and her cat meowed, it’s irritating to the ears
“Throw that b*tch away!” Serpentine spat
“It’s my pet so stop trying!” Al Ana spat back, taking her seat beside Cruella
Botis came in after that and kept standing while scanning everywhere like an hawk
“King Dantalion is coming soon, we should prepare for his return” Cruella said
” So that’s the reason for this?” Botis said
” What else?” Cruella huffed
The sound of footsteps can be suddenly heard and they all kept quiet, Cyclops came in
“So you decided to attend the meeting tonight” serpentine said
“what are we her for?” Cyclops asked straight
“To talk about king Dantalion’s return” Al Ana said
“I’m not interested” Cyclops replied and started leaving
” Stop!” Serpentine ordered and Cyclops stopped, looking back at him
“You must be out of your mind, how can you walk out on us!”
“Cos I want to, so you might wanna excuse me” Cyclops replied and made to go again
Serpentine stood and his black wings grew, he flapped it and flew to Cyclops
He landed in front of him and his eyes showed fire
“You just disobeyed me!’ Serpentine yelled
” The last time I checked, when king Dantalion was leaving, he never gave you order to take over as his regent” Cyclops replied
Serpentine opened his mouth and black flames came out to his Cyclops on the face
“Son of the devil!” Cyclops screamed as his eyes went blind immediately
“You’re no match for my Powers so learn how to respect me!” Serpentine yelled
Cyclops flew away from the coven to his house, using his inner eyes, immediately he got home, he dipped his face into the cleansing water, he regained his sight immediately
“Serpentine, you just called for a fight”
****
Next morning**
Kaitlyn sniffed the smell of where she is and detected that she’s not in her room
She opened her eyes quickly and and spranged up
Her eyes widened and she held her head
“What do I do?, Where am I?” She said
*My room” Min’s voice said from the other side of the room
She slowly looked there and saw him sitting on a chair with a book in on his hands
“Chang?” She said slowly, suddenly feeling embarrassed
“I took you here last night when you passed out after the moon came out” he said
” Oh….oh” she said , touching her hair embarrassedly
Min stood and walked closer to her.
“You shed blood like tears and also, there’s this shinny thing at the back of your neck” he said
She kept her gaze fixed on the ground and found it hard to look up
“you’re different, really really different from all the Supernatural beings I’ve seen, who are you?” He asked
She slowly looked up at him and their eyes met, she kept looking at him and he won’t stop looking too..
“I..I’m Kaitlyn right?” She said but he immediately held her shoulders and as he held it, she felt something inside of her that’s difficult to explain
“Who are you” He asked again
“I..I dunno” she replied slowly and he let her shoulder go
She ran out of the room immediately
Min sat back on his bed and sighed. “I need to read more books, I might just find out who she really is, she’s not a normal one” he thought, looking at the cowry again
He strangely feels attached to it and he decided to keep it
“I might lose it if I decide to take it everywhere” he said and took off his necklace
He inserted the cowry into the necklace as a pendant and fixed it back on his neck
He smiled as he checked it out in the mirror
“It’s cute”
***
Kaitlyn was restless althrough, she walked around her room restlessly , thinking if Min took off her mask last night or not
When she took her mask off, she saw traces of blood on her face and that kind of calmed her down a little
“If he actually took it off, my he’d have cleaned the blood” she thought and sat
” But what if he knowingly left it like that so I won’t suspect?” She thought otherwise, standing up again
She took in her lip and placed her palms on her head
“I’m so dead” she said silently
“But Min doesn’t seem like someone who’ll do that…. but…I dunno!” She said, falling on the bed heavily
She later stood and entered her bathroom, while taking her bath, she checked out the mark on her neck in the mirror..
“Ion know how I got this, maybe it was glued to me or I was destined to have, but I’m really losing it, the pains is growing every night, and I even passed out this time around, who knows what’ll happen next time, will I die? ” She asked herself as she walked out of the bathroom slowly
” Elaina said if I get my true love to kiss the mark on the back of my neck every moonlit night, it’ll ease the pain, but I don’t even know who my true love will be in this academy” she said while creaming
” Depp?, Oh not it….. Eden?, Oh it can’t be… Damon?, I’m not sure but he’s cool… Changmin?, He’s handsome and kind and generous and…. My gosh I’m fed up! ” She said while putting on her gown
She has been soliloquizing for more than an hour now then the academy bell rang
“Why will they ring the bell this early morning?, Don’t tell me they now ring bells for food too” she said as a knock came on her door
” Kaitlyn, Lett Park is here!, Let’s go meet him!” Rainbow’s voice said by the door
Kaitlyn’s face brightened up, since she heard of the second master yesterday, she has been eager to meet him
“Coming!” She replied, getting her mask, she put it on before opening the door.
“Hmmn, I love your perfume fragrance” Rainbow inhaled
“Perfume?, I don’t use perfume” Kaitlyn replied
“Really?, Then it must be your body scent but it’s really nice” Rainbow said, hiding the hatred in her voice
“Oh, thanks” Kaitlyn replied
“I was just about to come and call you” Venus said, coming from the other end
” Good morning” Kaitlyn said
” Good morning beauty” Venus smiled
“You haven’t even seen my face for once” Kaitlyn smiled
Rainbow boiled with anger and jealousy but she’s using all she has to keep it in
“But one will perceive you have a beautiful face cos you’re kind” Venus replied
” Enough of the compliments, let’s go meet Lett Park” Rainbow said, leading the way out of their chamber
They got to the meeting ground and Asher is already on seat , sitting gallantly as usual
They joined the other students and when Min’s eyes met with Kaitlyn’s, she quickly looked away.
“Lett Park arrived this morning” Asher said and a total silence followed
Then like a dash, Lett appeared right beside Asher
“Master Lett!”
“Master!”
“We missed you a lot!”
The students won’t stop talking and smiling
Lett has a big smile on his face
“I’ve missed you all too, throughout the journey, you guys were on my mind” he replied, scanning everyone with his eyes
” Hope Asher treated you guys well?’ he joked

” Yes master!” They all chorused and his smile grew wider
“He’s the most jovial master you’ll ever see, master Asher is always serious and stern” Venus whispered as Lett climbed down the stairs to the middle of the students
Athena stood in one side since she’s not part of them but he noticed her first
“Athena” he smiled, gesturing at her
“Welcome back master” she bowed, smiling too
He moved further and turned to Mercury. “Angry bird” he said and Mercury smiled
“Her smile is cute I swear, it’s the first time I’m seeing it” Kaitlyn whispered
” I know right?, She has a pretty smile but she never smiles” Venus replied beside her
” Welcome master Lett” Mercury said as her smile faded away
” Eden , hope your anger issues are not intact anymore” he said when he got him
” No master, I get angry seldomly now” he replied, smiling cutely like a kid
” Depp , Mercury’s greatest fighting partner” he said and Depp only curved his lips
” Don’t tell me they still fight” Lett said
“Everyday” Damon replied
” Damon you haven’t changed, still as handsome as ever” Lett said, touching his shoulder
Damon bowed and Venus smiled when her eyes met with Lett
“Venus, a girl who’s different from her twin” Lett said
” That’s me” Venus smiled
Kaitlyn bowed immediately he looked her way
Lett looked at her for so long and she found it hard to look up
“What’s your name?” He asked
“Kaitlyn” she replied without looking up
He looked at Min and he bowed too
“Changmin Lee” he said be before raising his head
“New students” he said and Min nodded
“Masked girl” Lett said and returned his stare to her before climbing up again
“I’m back now, we have a lot of fun to catch, I’ll see you guys later” he said and left with Asher
” Food will soon be ready!” Athena said and left for the kitchen
There are actually other ten maids who help in cooking but of them all, she’s the only one who is allowed to stay in the academy and maybe that’s why she’s the only one recognized as the academy maid
“Always tardy” Mercury said Immediately she left
” What do I do with you” Venus said beside her
She smirked and left immediately
“Let’s take a walk together” Eden told Kaitlyn
“Sure” Kaitlyn replied
” No, we have somewhere to go together, right Kaitlyn?” Rainbow quickly answered, taking Kaitlyn’s hand
“Where?” Kaitlyn asked confusedly
“I need to show you something” she replied and pulled Kaitlyn away
They got to a point and Rainbow let go of her hand
“What are we here for?” Kaitlyn asked
“Just rest here” Rainbow said and gave a fake smile before leaving
****
“So you know, you should tell her and restrict her movements” Lett said, taking his seat beside Asher on the couch in the Lodge Of Fame
” I actually found out she’s the special one not long ago” Asher replied
” Then you should have told her Immediately” Lett replied
” I know, but I was thinking about what she’ll feel, won’t she feel scared?, I mean, the special supernatural queen is the sacrifice to be made to awaken the dead Princess of the demons coven and if the demons get to know she’s here, they’ll be after her” Asher said
” I know how you feel, but still you should tell her, I mean… she’ll be passing through the moon sword pains every moonlit night just because she’s the queen of supernatural, she should know the reason for her misery” Lett replied
” I’ll inform her, I just have to wait a little bit more” Asher replied
” And didn’t you smell demons?, A student must have been associating with them” Lett said
” I know, but I’m sure you know it always gets revealed anytime it happens, so I’m waiting for when it’ll get revealed this time” Asher replied
***
Min admired the cowry necklace on his neck as he read in the library, breakfast will soon be ready
“Why do I feel like I’m attached to this cowry?” He wondered loudly
“Cos you need to find out something about her” a voice said behind him, his father’s voice!
He spranged up and looked around
“Father!, Father!” He called but heard nothing anymore
“Appear to me” he said slowly but it’s not happening
Damon came in ..
” Time for breakfast” he said, pulling him out of the library
They got to the dinning hall and settled down to eat while Damon went to his keyboard
“As you guys eat, I’ll be entertaining with tunes, I can eat after playing” he said and started playing the keyboard as Athena served
The tune is soft and lovely, everyone loves it
Kaitlyn did whatever it takes just to avoid Min’s eyes but it’s just Impossible, their eyes meets every now and then and each time she looks away, Min smiles
“Guys, there’s a liquor supply for those who want to try it out” Athena announced
” Supernatural beings don’t get drunk easily so I’m in for a drink” Eden replied and winked at Kaitlyn when their eyes met
“Thanks for yesterday” he mouthed
“It’s nothing” she replied
” I don’t want to drink” Min said
“I’ll drink” Venus said
“Ion want any filthy drink” Mercury said
Depp is not there
“Let’s drink” Rainbow said beside Kaitlyn
“No I’ve never drank liquor” Kaitlyn replied
“But there’s a first time for everything” Rainbow persuaded
” Try it out Kaitlyn” Venus said, handing over a bottle of liquor to her
Since the mask left out her mouth, she closed her eyes and gulped down the liquor.
Ten minutes later***
Kaitlyn put off her snickers and placed it on the table, smiling loudly and everyone stared
She’s obviously utterly drunk
“Is she a supernatural at all?, Getting drunk with just a bottle” Mercury said
“gosh” Min said, smiling as he looked at her, her drunk side is cute
Damon stopped the keyboard and started staring too
Eden smiled cutely. “She’s cutely drunk” he said
Kaitlyn stood after placing her Snickers on the table but she fell back on the chair
Rainbow smiled secretly
“What’s the largest ocean in the world” Kaitlyn laughed, resting back on her chair and placing her leg on the table
“I shouldn’t have allowed you to drink” Athena said, dipping her finger in her mouth
Kaitlyn stood and yawned loudly
“Who wants to see my face?” She said, making funny faces
” I top that list, I can’t wait to see how ugly you are” Mercury replied
“I’m not ugly!” She replied and made to take it off but Damon appeared in front of her and held her hand
“No you can’t” he said, remembering how she ran off when her mask fell off the other time
Then if she drunkenly shows her face to everyone, she might feel hurt when she comes back to her senses
“She just said I’m ugly, I need to show the truth, I’m pretty” she pouted
” I know but chill” Damon smiled
” I can’t chill” she smiled and sighted Min
“Oh.. that’s my protector” she pointed at him
“oh gosh” Min muttered
” Last night when I was suffering from…
Min rushed to her and obstructed her mouth with his palm
“You can’t say it” he whispered
“Is there something between them?” Venus wondered
Min took his hand away from Kaitlyn’s mouth and she smiled
“I should give you something in return” she said
” What?” Min asked, looking at her pretty eyeballs
She smiled naughtily and but her lip, before Min can realize it, she grabbed his butt and pressed it
Everyone gasped in surprise while some like Damon and Eden are already laughing
“I wish I can laugh but I don’t laugh at any funny thing done by anyone I hate” Mercury said
Min has a shocked look on his face as Kaitlyn pressed his butt harder, still smiling drunkenly
“It’s so soft” she said.
