I managed to get into the main building of the school without any unnecessary attention, and even though it could sound easy it was harder than you all might think, because at the entrance of the building a middle age man who seemed to be a professor asked your name and that sort of stuff so making through that gate was the first real proof for us, the black sheeps of de Arick Academy.
I was one of the last of the students to make it so if nothing had happened yet I could say the thirty or so of us had done it without problems, or that was I liked to think, but I couldn't be more wrong.
"Look what we have here," one guy that seemed to be a second grade studen was saying. "Is a black sheep." Added another guy. They were like five or even six sorrounding a first grader.
I knew that guy, he was ranked second on the exam that we wen through. This is because just a little part of those who were selected as possible candidates for the scholarship were actually approved. I could only feel pitty, there was no chance for him to outpower that situation, no to mention he was not just the son of a great and powerful family, he was a second grader himself.
"I thought this was just a joke from the principal, but seeing a commoner walking around us makes me feel bad for what this school has turned to," the same guy who started this show said, "I mean, I think I'm not the only one who feels pity about this situation" "Yeah you should teach him some lessons before he do something weird, he is a dirty commoner after all."
There wasn't any teacher near to ask for help, and even if it was, there was not guarantee that he would help, after all they were the same kind of shit just as the student that was threatening a younger classmate was. "The use of magic is highly punished here, if you make use of it you would..." A girl who was near the group of brats tried to persuade the rest to stop, but she was quiet by the same guy "I don't need any trick to kick his ass out of here," he cried with a evil grin on his face.
Even if the other students didn't thik that the commoners shouldn't be there like that big tough kiddo they weren't showing any disagree with his actions. And for my commoner mate who was the half the size of his attacker his last hope was to stop this by himself, but he seemed to scared to do anything about it.
"Are you gonna say anything?, black sheep." The way he said it, it was like if he was annoyed just by the mere existence of the term. "What happened? Did the cat bite your tongue?" The other students started to laugh at this sentence, making the things harder for the already nearly pissing himself guy "uhm... ah..." this just fueled the laugh of the people.
"So your'e not gonna do anything, right?" The brat raised his arm ready to punch my not-so friend but what his fist met was my bare hand. "You shouldn't be taking advantage of a newcomer student just like this," I said "Who do you think you are!" The guy cried trying to scape my grip but he couldn't "I was just passing around" I answered and let out his hand of mine "Do you think you'll come out of this unscathed?!" The guy yelled and tried to hit my face this time, but I dodged it effortlessly "How could you..." he couldn't finish his sentence cause of the punch of my fist in his stomach.
I was about to kick him out of there but I felt a hand on my shoulder so I turned myself to met gaze whit an old woman. She was told and has her gray hair (product of the age clearly) tied up in a ponytail. She was standing there with a smile on here face, her presence instead made me shiver.
"You should be Cassian, right?" I didn't know who she was or how she knew my name, but I nodded "Isn't she principal Keller?" one of the guys that were with the second grade whispered. "Shit, let's get out of here" Were they trying to scape and lay all the guilt on me? "I was just..." I began talking but she didn't let me finish my aliby "follow me Cassian" She said and started walking through the people without waiting my response, I did as she ordered and followed her.
We arrived to a big door with the sign "Principal Office" on it. "Director Keller I..." she interrupted me once more and I started to grow annoyed by that "Just come in Cassian, don't think a lot of it please".
In the early 1800´s, the humanity discovered the first magical creature, just like all the myths and fairy tales have talked about since the very beginning of the mankind history.
