'Where are we?'
'Young Miss it's your new room, excuse us Elijah', Walking in, a professionally dressed woman replied, before chasing Burton from the room.
I looked around in amazement, content at how much of an exact replica the room was to my previous. It was magical and also down putting when I'd reminisced my last few memories of that room.
'Alright ladies'. Burton laughed.
Looking at the woman from the edge of the door way he begged, 'Take care of the miss'
'Oh get out, I'm only bathing and dressing her for the day'
'But seriously, my life depends on it', Burton cried.
'We've all heard it before, stop being so dramatic', the woman left him at the door, then locking it.
On the other side of the door, Burton shouted, 'Alright...I'm leaving'.
After he was gone the air cleared in sound, before the woman arranging some bathing products started to explain to me.
'You've been asleep for far too long so we're behind schedule, I made sure to tell your parents about the situation but since it's common among late blooming Preceptors, I guess they weren't too worried',
I guess she doesn't know about my seal or that I was scientifically mutated. It's probably best that it stays that way.
'Sorry but, who are you?' I questioned as she approached.
'Ah yes, you can call me Linda' the woman said.
'Linda?'
'Yes, I've been hired to be your Manager slash Chef slash Maid, so basically I arrange your schedules, cook your meals and maintain your home'.
'why would I need a maid, there are only two rooms to maintain in my dorm, trust me I can deal with it'
'Actually, you have the whole last floor of the dorm building to yourself, It was designed so that you can feel as at home as possible Miss'.
'Yep definitely Mum's doing, but actually what is your last name; I'd prefer to use that'
'Burton, Miss'
'Hold on, are you and Burton number one related?'
'Yes, he's my big baby', she emphasized.
'No way, why am I only just meeting you now?', outraged I shouted.
'Well both my sons are starting to study at this academy, and since my sons are so talented not only were they offered scholarships but I was given a job on top of it'
'Mrs Burton, I'm glad that my family could acknowledge Burton and his Brother', knowing of the Burton family situation, I was happy to see that mine could look out for them.
'Thank you, but most importantly we're very behind your schedule, so after your bath and afternoon tea we'll going on a tour of the campus and then to dine with your tutors'. she replied.
'Okay', I rolled out of my bed and in squinting my eyes, picked a dressing gown that was lay at the far end of the bed.
'I'll go run the bath Miss' Mrs Burton stated. I shook myself and followed behind her.
Later that afternoon, Mrs Burton and I were walking back from the dinning house to the dorms, when we passed through the campus garden 'Wonder hill'.
'What did you think of your tutors?', she asked me with curious looking eyes.
'The Vision tutor Miss May is a quite funny one, I know we'll get a long well though'
'That she is, Miss'
'The Combat tutor Mr Ban is such a muscle head, I remember him saying that his ability is super strength or something', sighing I continued, 'I can tell that he's going to work us muscles, he said if you can master physicality then your overall potential will increase'.
'That man is something, indeed' Miss Burton agreed.
'The Mind tutor Mr Lumberjack didn't however show me much interest, he was in constant meditation, I swear he's too reserved for my liking'.
'Yes he's been said to be like that, it's apparently the nature of those who specialize in Mind, where as Combat and Vision are always so dramatic like my son', she laughed.
'Oh yes, since Burton is going to this Academy...he's a preceptor then, which is he though?', I questioned Mr Burton.
'He's like myself, a V Preceptor Miss', she proudly replied.
'Ah it's not him', I mumbled.
'What's not...', she started before being cut short by a herd of rustling trees. As I spun around, the wind became a dark demon and nature its arms. I felt discerned and confused, so in response turned to look back at Mrs Burton who was...
