"You gotta be kidding! Why didn't you tell me you were part of it? That explains the weir clothes you're using" What was I supposed to answer? I didn't excepected her to call me there in front of everyone or something like that, I supposed it would be made public with a picture, or just putting my name on a list. I never expected this, she wanted me to say something like her? That was impossible, but I did as she asked and walked myself to the scenary.
That girl, Vanessa was piercing me with her gaze just as some animal seeing it's prey, but even her looked surprised about me being part of the comittee, even more, the vicepresident, the principal never told me that part so I was as surprised as her. I could see the dislike on the face of everyone, they should been asking things like "why is a black sheep part of the comittee" or "why is he at the side of Vanessa" and I could understand them, even for me, I wouldn't like to see someone I don't like with the one I idealize, but I havn't anyone like that, so it wasn't my problem.
I walk up the stairs of the stage and placed myself besides the director. "He's Cassian, I think some of you already know him, and for the ones who don't, let me tell you he is strong enough to be part of the comittee, what's more, he is as strong as the president." I didn´t know how strong Venessa was, but to hold the position she should be at least as strong as the last grade students, but I wasn't sure about the director's statement. "So Cassian, please, could you say something for the students?" I whispered, "are you sure about this director?" "I havn't been so sure about something in my life kid, and it has been a long one, so don't make them wait".
I walked a few steps to the front and started to talk, "as you already heared, I'm the vicepresident of the disciplinary comittee, and as you should know I'm a black sheep, if you have a problem with it I don't care, if you have anything to say, say it. I'm not here because I want, but the director trusts me, so if you think you coul fit the position better than me proove it, but don't think it would be easy, and last of all. I don't care if you are a black sheep, nobility, royalty or anything, for me you are all just an ass pain".
As I expected no one said something, they were annoyed by my word, even Jim was surprised but he started to cheer, no one followed him. I turned myself and walked out of the stage, but before I could leave Vanessa took my sleeve. "Where do you think you are going? Is not over," so that was it. "What am I suppose to do?" She just pointed the space beside her, "are you expecting me to wait there until this shit is finish?" Her green eyes stayed on mine, in that moment I understood everything, "Do I have to order it to you? Cassian," I nodded and stayed by her side, not because I was scared of her, no, because in order to accomplish my goal, I needed her.
"Well, let's continue" The director started talking again, she told us the rules to follow and what areaes of the school were banned from us, she told us that the most little provocation between some any student to a black sheep or a black sheep to a student was also banned, and all kind of fights. That was almost everything she said, but as if it were a quest for the new students, all of them stared at me with hatred, and the reason was obvious. Vanessa who noticed this walked to the front and asked the director is she could say something.
"Go on," she answered, "for all of you who doubt about the vicepresident, if you have something to say, you have to say it to me first, and if he leaves the comittee because of you, i'll do it myself too".
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. Months later, the world was struck by an unknown illness that lasted almost 20 years, after that something changed around the world, children began to be born with incredible magical powers.
