Going through multiple tunnels and following the map Abdul gave him, Malek finally made it to the room. It was far, farther than any of the other door rooms. Many scratches and graffiti saying to leave and to run away as if it was left as a warning. ‘Hm, the scratches seem to be from past students and the poorly done graffiti looks pretty fresh.’ Malek said to himself. He then opens the door to his room. The dorm room was empty yet filled. Filled with garbage and trash, wallpaper was peeling off and the desks was filled with dust. Walking into the room, Malek notices someone was already here, a boy with caramel skin and long straight black hair. “Huh? Why are you in my room?” Malek asks as the boy stands up off his bed. “We share this room. I really hoped it wasn’t you.” The boy responds. “Well, it is me.” Malek says walking over to the left over to his bed. “What a pretty good room though, its really big!” Malek expresses. The boy with glasses furrowed his eyebrows in confusion. “Good? This is in pretty bad condition compared to the other students.” The boy comments on Malek’s statement. “Hm, that’s true, but I don’t like the fancy places. They are bleugh” Malek says hugging himself. “They are what? You know words exist right.” “Shut up smartass.” Suddenly someone knocks on the door and a staff officer opens the door and immediately covers his nose. “Inspection time.” The officers says. Malek and the boy look at them confused. “Inspection? When is that a thing here? They didn’t say anything about that.” Malek responds. Another officer bends a little forward to meet Malek face to face with a creepy smile. “Huh you got a problem Sector kid!” He moves his face away. “As I can see, you guys did not clean your room. Punishment, clean the homeroom. If you don’t you will be expelled. Haha good luck!” As quickly as they entered, they left just as quick.

The guards can be heard laughing as they slam their door and leave. “I guess it already started.” The boy says as he begins walking towards the door. Malek follows him, “Start what?” “The starting of the torment, the guards, well to be specific all the staff are going to harass us.” “Why is that?” “You really don’t know? Whatever.” Malek tilts his head in confusion they both continue to the homeroom class. Upon entering the homeroom, Malek walks to the end towards the windows “The sun! Finally, I was getting tired of being indoors all day!” Malek looks down at the grass and sees the people from the arena. “hm, I guess those are the people who passed.” Malek says, “No they didn’t get an inspection, didn’t I just say that. Now here you clean too.” The boy says as he picks up a mop and begins too clean. “No.” Malek says. “I don’t wanna clean and if they aren’t I ain’t cleaning shit.” He says as he lays down on the edge. “What?! You do know what they will do if we don’t clean right.” The boy responds, “Yeah they said they’ll expel us.” “Then clean!” “No. I won’t do it.” “Are you stupid?! Whatever, you will the be the one expelled. Like I care.” The boy says cleaning. “I’ll just beat them up before they can tell.” Malek says chuckling. “They are officers who are trained, you won’t be able to beat them.” “Are you a sheep?” Malek asks. “What?!” “Are you some kind of sheep, cuz’ all you do is follow whatever you are told.” The boy stops and grips the mop tightly. “Are you a noble or whatever they are called.” Malek continues. The boy’s blood started to boil in anger and started to rush Malek with the mop and attempts to smack Malek’s head with the mop. Malek catches it and takes a look at the boy and smiles and lands a kick to his gut that sends him flying and crashes into the desks.

Malek stands up on his feet “So you do got balls, that was a nice try four eyes!” Malek says with a smile on his face. The boy slowly standing up on his feet angered. “You are just so stupid!” then claps his hands and 6 steel spikes coming out of his arm and aimed at Malek. The speed was incredible, and the control was perfect. Aiming at Malek without damaging anything around him, the boy was able to control the spikes perfectly. “Steel huh” Malek says dodging the first one and started to make his approach to the boy. Malek one by one dodges every spike and uses the environment to his advantage, jumping off desks and sliding under some as well. “That’s six!” Malek says to himself and with one step, he moves at incredible speed and with his right hand coated with concrete he aims a punch at the boy, but the boy countered with a blade of steel coming out of his left arm. But both their attacks was stopped.

It was none other than Abdul who blocked both their attacks simultaneously. “Well well well, I knew something like this would happen. When I checked out your rooms and seeing how you both weren’t there, I knew the guards already started their torment.” Abdul says letting go of both of them. “Well, Malek from sector 7, Diric from sector 3. I would like you guys to meet each other.” Malek looks at his wrist and sees a slight bruise. ‘How strong is he…’ he questions, as Diric clicks his tongue. “Well, since you both fought using your flow, you should be both expelled, but since it was me that brought you here I will take responsibility for that.” Abdul says taking out a bunch of papers and places them on the table. “But as your punishment, you have to complete these. And 1000 squats, 1000 push ups, 1000 sit ups. Hm actually, make all of them 5000. Haha also at least put the desks back to where they were. Haha bye bye! I’ll be watching y’all I want it done by tomorrow morning at homework!” He says with a smile and quickly runs out the door in a chuckle. Malek crosses his arms “What he left just like that! RECEEDING HAIRLINE COME BACK!” he calls out clicking his tongue. Diric grabs the deck of papers and sighs. “I’ll do the paper thing you do the work outs.” “Fine.” “What? I thought would deny it.” “It cuz I respect that guy. So I’ll do it.” Diric chuckles slightly. “Well that’s something I can agree with you on.” The boys quickly put the desks back and left to their dorm rooms. There they both did their tasks without saying a word to each other. Malek was doing all the work outs and Diric was doing all sorts of problem solving questions varying from all subjects. They continued all night until the morning bell.

They both finished right before the morning bell. Malek lays on the ground in a pool of sweat and Diric was face first onto the desk. “Finished.” They both said simultaneously. Diric then stands up and looks at Malek laughing seeing him struggle to stand up. “Shut it-“ he stops seeing Diric try to drink water from the pencil he hand in his hand. Malek bursts out laughing before they both laughed. Diric walks up and offers to carry Malek on his back. “I’ll carry you, you tell me where to go, my brain drained.” Malek chuckled and agreed as they headed towards the washroom to freshen up. They took a shower and Malek was amazed at everything. “Diric! How the hell is it raining! AH ITS HOT! AH ITS COLD!” Malek first time using the shower. “Wait you never had a shower before?” Diric responds at the other shower using the bar of soap on his head by accident. As they both dried up, Malek recovered enough to be able to walk on his own again. Making their way back to their room, the two felt a brotherhood starting. The mutual respect they have for each other after going through hard work. A group of boys come running out of their rooms giggling to themselves as they run the opposite way from where Malek and Diric are coming from. “Oi!” Malek calls for them but his legs still tired from the workouts to chase them. They rush into their rooms and sees their white uniforms ruined with paint. Diric and Malek look at their uniforms in silence and anger.

They eventually put their ruined uniforms and head to the cafeteria. In silence they walked in and the whole cafeteria was in silent then Brandon, the boy from the entrance ceremony started laughing which made almost all laugh. The girls giggled while making remarks on how they smelled which was a total lie since they both just took a shower. Malek walks up to the self-serve desk and his mouth immediately started watering. “Woah! Diric! Look at all this food! It smells so good what are these yellow things!” He said as he points at the eggs. He fills his tray with as much food it can handle. “Malek, read the room.” “Hm? Oh them. I know. I see them.” He says with a smirk on his face. “Whatever you’re thinking of doing, don’t. It’ll cause even more trouble.” Diric says. Malek chuckles evilly, as he makes his way past Brandon’s table. “This food is so trash. Who would eat this filth!” He says pushing his tray right in front of the path of Malek and Diric on purpose. “Oh no! You guys pushed my tray off the table! What is wrong with you guys!” Brandon calls out grabbing everyone’s attention. One particular person seated at the back with many people floating around her. She looks over at the situation and knew exactly what happened. Malek watches the food spilt on the ground and begins to slowly clean it up. Diric surprised at his actions decided to help putting the food on the tray. Malek picks up the tray and places it in front of Brandon. “Bon appetite.” He says as he slams Brandon’s head into the tray of ruined food. Smiling wildly and chuckling Malek started to walk away. Diric sighs but eventually smiles at the end. “Now if we get in trouble, it’ll be worth.” Malek says as he walks and sits at an empty table and begins to eat. Brandon in a rage stands up “You poor asshole!” Face filled with sauces and his uniform.

The cafeteria went from a happy buzzling area to a complete silent from the words of Brandon. Immediately officers walk in hearing the yelling and commotion. Malek seemed completely unfazed from the situation and was digging into his food. Diric looked around flustered trying to get Malek’s attention. Brandon begins his march over to Malek, veins popping from his forehead the officers immediately rush over to asses the situation. Both grabbing Malek and Diric immediately by the arms and put cuffs on them that suppresses their powers and physical strength. “Hey! What the hell is this for!?” Malek yells out. Forcefully moving them on their feet the guards hold still as Brandon makes way in front of them. “You think this a joke! Do you even know who I am! HUH!” Brandon clenches his fists and delivers a punch to the gut. Since the cuffs weakened him, Malek couldn’t fully absorbs the punch so he felt almost the entire hit. Malek bent forward in pain, Brandon followed with an uppercut which caused Malek’s nose to begin bleeding. The cafeteria stayed silent and no one moved to help, instead there were cheers from the group of 3 boys who were responsible for dirtying Malek’s and Diric’s uniform; and were followers of Brandon. “Hey you, are you going to apology to me now, you dog.” The abuse continues with the officers keeping Malek standing, Diric in the same position couldn’t move to help as he shakes in anger. ‘Malek was already in pain from the workouts and now this. If only these cuffs were off’ Diric thought to himself. “You learn your lesson huh?! You don’t mess with the top 10 noble families you poor secter!” Brandon pauses for a moment to catch his breath. Malek with his face all blood looked up at Brandon then spat blood in front of him. Brandon flinched then his flow aura started to raise, and a gust of wind started to pick up then a loud female voice is heard. “Enough.” The voice was so recognizable that the attention of the entire cafeteria flicked directly at her.
