Finding II: White Dove Academy

Chapter Truth Hurts



Reese POV

This is fucking crazy...what are we doing here?! I'm still a Freshman in high school. I have so much to live for and yet...we're here...in another goddamn dangerous situation. Dammit! If only I could use my magic. Something is preventing me. I'm guessing it's the same situation for all of us. "Let's start shall we?" He raises his arms up in the air slowly, and black fog starts to fill the whole room. Oh shit, I can feel my lungs filling up, I can't breathe. Everyone in the room starts to choke. "Ryder!! Guys what's going on?!!" I hear Henry yell out. "Reese!!" Zero calls out my name.

"Haha~ Just kidding, It's no fun to kill you guys like that," Morbus told us. He dropped his hands and suddenly I could breathe again. I tried to breath as best as I could, but each breath I took was harder than the last. "The fuck!" Ryder yelled out breathing hard along with the rest of us. "Before I decide if I should kill you all, I actually have a few things to talk to you about." He snaps his fingers and a couple demons come in the room. They bring in a chair and put it behind him. He sits on it legs crossed, and snaps his fingers again. The demons then runs over to Zero and Henry, who looked completely fine might I add, and brought them back to where we were. We were all in front of him at this point.

"Alright, first things first. I want to ask all of you...that you not participate in the war against the demons. If you give me your word, not only will I let you go, I'll tell you everything I know." Morbus said to us. "What?" Lucas asked with a stunned look on his face. I forgot that this guy was still here. "Yup, you see there's a few things you younglings don't know about this war. For one thing, the humans are the bad ones in this situation. We wanted nothing to do with them, but, just because we exist, they had the urge to just wipe us all out." "You expect us to believe that?" Henry scoffs.

"Oh my little cutie pie #1, you can believe what you want to believe. I'm merely a source of information. You guys should already know how evil the dean of the White Dove is. He sent you poor things to the place where my underlings were exploring. Knowing you guys weren't strong enough to go against them but somehow...cutie pie #1 managed to injure one of my own. I Jalou and he begged me to heal you too, although I don't know why." "Jalou..." Henry said while looking down. "Yes, one of my favorite underlings, Jalou, I can't believe you managed to push him that far. I would love for you two to be sparring partners-" "Hey, get to the point already," Zero says impatiently.

"Ooouu, someone's impatient~ Alright, since you're cutie pie #2 I'll let that slide; but interrupt me again, and you'll lose more than that mouth of yours." He said to Zero with a smile on his face. I could tell Zero looked a bit frightened. Hell, we all did. "As I was saying, that lousy dean of yours sent you guys into our territory." Morbus said. "That could've just been an accident!" Momo yells out to him. "Oh no no no no noo, twas no accident my dear. He did it on purpose, in fact, most of the kids from your school were sent to our territory. They all unfortunately passed away due to the lack of skill.." "No way... I was right! That fucking dean!!" Ryder yells out while hitting the ground. "Fuck..." I said underneath my breath.

"We have no where to go back to.." Zero says while looking dejected. "Oh my, my cutie #2 is sad, nooo. It's alright, you can stay here." Morbus told him. "Excuse me?" Lye says confused. "You heard me copy cat." Morbus responded. "Copy cat?" Lye asked. "You copy magic don't you?" Lye just sits there unable to say anything. "Anyways, since that old fogey wanted you guys dead, I suggest you come to my side." "Hell no! You're demons, you...you killed our friend Marc!" Ryder yelled out. "Oh honey, I didn't kill him, Jalou did. It's also your friends fault for being that weak. It's all of your faults actually, if you trained hard enough, you would've been able to beat Jalou pretty easily."

No one said anything, we all knew he was somewhat right. It was kinda our faults, if we trained more. "No," Henry said, we all looked at him and he said, "I refuse to believe Marc's death was my fault." "What about your friend Zayne's?" Morbus said. "Shut up!!! Don't you dare say his name!! You have no right!!!!" Henry yells at him. "Oho~ So scary, but, like I said before, I'm not the one that killed him, your light blue friend over there did. He said while pointing at Lucas. "Why not yell at him?" Morbus asked. "I already beat the shit out of him twice." Henry said annoyed. "Twice?" Ryder asked while looking at him.

"Ohhh, you didn't tell them yet? Cutie pie #1 here, beat light blue over there almost half to death when we put them in the same cell. So unfortunately we had to separate them." "Is that true Henry?" Peach asks while looking at him, but Henry doesn't say anything. "So what?! He deserved it!" Ryder yelled out. "Did you guys ever ask him why he killed your friend? Or did you just assume he hated you all?" No one said anything. "He...uh.." Henry couldn't even say anything. "Light blue boy, enlighten us, why did you kill their friend?" We all turned to look at Lucas, and he looks around at us with a pained expression. "I...don't know...I didn't mean to..." "What the fuck does that mean?!" Henry yells at him. "It wasn't me! It was...it was...him." Lucas says while pointing to his head.

"What are you talking about?" Ryder asks while looing at him annoyed and confused. "Go on light blue, tell them what you have inside of you." "I have...I can't.." Lucas says while covering his face. "Ugh, humans are so mentally fragile. Light blue has another personality in his head. It only comes out when he fights, and he can't control it. When I found this out, I brought him here. I wanted to keep him, to fight for us of course. We needed that kind of ruthlessness if we wanted to win this war." Morbus stated. "Another personality??" Zero asks in awe. We turned to look at Lucas again and he was looking down at his hands. "I was wondering why he was just taking all my punches like a pussy earlier." Lye says with a glare.

"It seems like there is still hostility among you all, I wish to change that. Hmmm, what should I do? I was going to kill you all, but then I wanted to keep some, and now I want to keep you all. Ugh, this is just so hard." Morbus said while rubbing his chin. "Wait, I still have some questions." Henry says to him. "Oh? Ask away my cutie pie #1." Ryder clicks his tongue and turns his head. "You said you're in control of Moonbeam. Moonbeam killed my parents you asshole. So are you saying you ordered them to?!" Henry said to him. "Haha~ What do you take me for? I've never met your parents, but I want to though. I'd like to thank them for producing such a handsome young man-" "Cut the bullshit. Did you send Moonbeam to kill my parents or not?" Henry asked.

"Like I just said, I didn't know your parents; and if you keep interrupting me, I will kill you. Now...when was this? I want to pin point the date and time, to see where I was." Morbus asked Henry. "It should be right around the time I was born, so 2061." "Ahhh, yes, that was a horrible time for me. I took the throne around that time. People were rioting and rebelling, because they didn't want a leader like me. Even Moonbeam objected, doing shit by themselves, and not even consulting me. It got on my nerves, so I killed some of those Moonbeam weirdos to serve as a message. I guess in the midst of their rebellion, they killed your family. My dearest apologies." He said while bowing slightly to Henry.

"You..." Henry couldn't say anything. He just looked down with a sad expression. "How do we know you're not lying?" Ryder asked. "Like I said, believe what you want, I merely serve as a source of information at the moment." "I have a question too," Zero said. "Go ahead cutie pie #2." Why does he keep calling them that...I rolled my eyes and listened to Zero's question, "Was all this a set up? Were they just training us to fight demons this whole time? The tournament, our school life. Was it all a lie? Were they just spying on us? I don't get any of this." "Yes, to all of it." Morbus responded. We all looked at each other with an unbelieving expression. His response was short, but with that one response he answered all the questions instantly.

"Sorry to say, but everything you've done up till now was most likely planned. Except meeting each other, and winning the tournament, that's the only thing you guys did yourselves. Other than that, the schools, the classes, the teachers, the tournaments. Everything you know, was a lie." No one knew what to say, how could this be? Why are we learning this just now? "My uncle.." Henry says looking dejected. "I don't know him either, I will tell you though. Most of the adults around you, knew what was going on. I wouldn't trust any of them if I were you. Especially you Cutie pie #1, seeing as how you have the most valuable power." Morbus said while looking at Henry.

"What? If it's valuable why'd they send me out to die?!" Henry asked. "I'm pretty sure they thought you would be the only one to come back alive. I'm guessing they sent you so you could become stronger." "But...my friends...my boyfirend...my family..." "Yes, they probably knew that they would all die. Everyone except you, that's exactly why they sent you in the first place. To get rid of the dead weight and keep the strong ones." "No way..." Cherry says, aloud. "What are we supposed to make of all this?" Ryder asked him. Morbus gets up from his chair and comes over to us. Oh no, is this the end??
