*Chapter Three - Visions*


"What do you mean Royalty?" I demanded.

"Oh, you know...Kings, Queens, that kind of royalty!" Alexander shot back
at me.

"Yes, but the problem is I know the De Lumiere family. None of them have
this many abilities. It may be better if we keep this to ourselves. What do
you say? Give me chance to seek advice." Asked Professor Smith, everyone
nodded. Thank the Gods there was were seven people, including Professor
Smith and me. "I'll talk to the Dean once the class is over. For now, let's
continue with the ceremony."

Automatically, using telekinesis I suspended the sword in the middle of the
circle where we were sitting and Syrena took it telekinetically from me.

"Electrum, Elementum, Oculus and Levita." Then she added, "Also my family
have a weird ability of transporting through lightning." She then did the
same as I had and put the sword back in the middle and then the other girl
took it.

"Catarsis, Mandate and Presence, Elementum, Corpus, Pyro. Also, since I'm a
Darkstar I can open doors between worlds."

The sword was passed in the same manner as before and this time it was
Alexander that took it. "Metamorphia, Elementum, Clairvoyance and as a
witch I can control plants." Following him was Alastor the semi giant, and
then finally the last boy who was a sorcerer.

Shortly after the ceremony the class ended. Following the Professor's
instruction, we gathered in the middle of the room and held hands. As we
did so we appeared back in the woods. Professor Smith went straight to talk
to the Dean, as we went to our next class which was Spellcasting, followed
by Potions and then lunch which was uneventful.

In the afternoon we had history with the whole class. Then those of us who
were magics had botanics, followed by astronomy. After all classes our
group reunited once again for Training and Defence. It was like the PE of
magic.

The uniform consisted of black pants and black shirts made of an elastic
fibre. I hated them the moment I saw them. They were too tight and marked
all my body. Thanks to my dad I had a big ass, not too big, but nonetheless
it was big. Then, not to brag I had a pretty big dick as well, (9 inches),
but hey I'm not bragging. The bad thing about all of this was that for
sports and things like that I had to use another prosthetic leg. The one I
wore all time was for aesthetic purposes, but try to run with it and you
would really suffer. The good thing is that I had my knee, so it wasn't
that hard.

I was alone in my room as everybody had already gone down when I heard a
knock on the door. I opened it and there was a box with a note on top of
it. I read it...

`Nick... Show them that you don't need two legs to be the best! Love you
Amelie, Marguerite & Claire.' I opened the box and there was a pair of
pants just like the ones from training, but these had one leg shorter. The
right one.

When I was walking down the stairs and through the halls of the school
people looked at my leg, some of them had looks of pity. That's what I
hated the most. It is what is, so live with it was my attitude.

I arrived at the gym and everybody was there already. As soon as I opened
the door and walked in everybody stopped talking. I walked towards Syre who
was talking to Alexander and the girl from today's magic class. Her name
was Sarah, Sarah Darkstar.

"Hi..." I said.

"Hi, I see that you decided to do the right thing after all." Alexander
said.

"What do you mean?" I asked

"Why do you think everybody in the room got down so fast? We know you don't
like to show your leg. We talked about it last night when you were
bathing. Even MJ agreed."

"Thanks..."

"You don't have to thank me. It was John's idea." He answered.

"John as in Jonathan Wolfanger?" Asked Syre with a questioning look and a
hard tone.

"Yes, as in me. Why you are so hostile all the time?" He asked. John, oh I
liked the shortening of his name!

"It is none of your business!" She said, but then followed it by
whispering, "Dog!"

"Oh, now I remember you. You're the granddaughter of Atalanta. You're
Mike's ex..."  John stated.

"I am not! I don't know any Atalanta and I do not date animals." Syre said
before she moved to go, but John grabbed her arm.

"I know you are mad, but I am not my brother!" I saw where this was going
and could tell that it was time I interrupted.

"John, thanks! Syre I need your help with Spellcasting homework."

"What home..." Started Alexander, before Sarah stamped on his feet

"Oh I'm sorry. I am such a clumsy clot!" Sarah stated. We were literally
saved by the bell. As very strong middle aged man walked in and rang a
little bell on the wall. Everybody stood on a line, one besides the
other. The Professor looked at me, you could tell he had seen my leg. It
wasn't pity, but a definite look crossed his face that said everything.

"Hello I'm Professor Daniel Daniels. Yes, that is my name and if somebody
makes a joke the whole class will drop and give me 50
push-ups. Understood?"

"Yes Sir."  Everybody said at unison.

"Oh please DD, don't be so hard on the kids. It's their first day." A woman
the same age as Mr. Daniels said.

"Helena...How many times do I have to tell you not to call me DD in front
of the students?" He protested.

"I will call you whatever I want sweetheart." She told him then she looked
at us.

This woman had a protective look about her, she was the perfect definition
of how you would picture a mother. You just wanted to hug her and cry on
her shoulder. "My name is Helena Daniels.  Yes for all my sins, I am DD's
wife. All of you can call me Helena. Just Helena, not Mrs., not Professor,
just Helena. Ok? Now..." She said before she stopped and drew a rune symbol
on the wall. It glowed and I felt sort of empty, "...this room supresses
any kind of magical ability. So, that means no magic, no shapeshifting and
no vampiric abilities either. We cannot supress fairy magic because fairies
are connected to their magic."

After introductions we did a thorough warm-up, we even exercised our
hands. After that came a little class about fighting, thank God I had taken
boxing classes. Hey a crippled gay guy needs to defend himself! That's what
my best friend used to say, well that and that he wanted to fuck the
instructor. That comment was a classical Oscar comment. He was this
prototype of feminine slutty gay guy, but he was a good person. I am such a
bad friend. I hadn't thought about him in the last two days.

We got paired up and guess who I got. MJ! I heard Professor Daniels say to
him, "Go easy on him." What the fuck? I got angry as MJ came up to me.

"You heard it." He said.

"Yep, and do not go easy on me."

"Oh you can be sure of that." He hissed, before the Professor started
talking again.

"This is only training, ok? So I don't wanna see low blows or anything like
that.  Fae people do not use your magic. The fight ends when the opponent
gives." He said before he blew his whistle.

Everybody started fighting, but you could see it was just a training
session. No one was trying too hard. Except from MJ and me, ours was a real
battle. One that I was sorely losing. People think of faeries are pink,
little and weak people. Let me tell you they are not! They are very fierce
warriors. Every army of magical creatures is afraid of them, or so I read
today in a book in the history class.

MJ then kicked my good leg! "Janasander! That is a low blow." Professor
Daniels shouted, but MJ did it again only this time followed it with a
punch that was on fire directed directly at my jaw. Thank God, I was able
to dodge it. "Janasander!  Stop it right now." Screamed the Professor
Daniels, but MJ didn't listen.

By now all of his punches were on fire. "Merekeen Janasander you are in
serious trouble..." Added the Professor heading in our direction, but
stopped in his tracks and started to punch the air. There was some kind of
invisible barrier stopping him.  "Helena drop the seal, NOW!!!" He shouted.

"I already have." She said.

"This is useless. That is an aether barrier, only another Fae can break
it." Stated Sarah. "Stella, break it down, he's going to kill Nick." She
shouted as she and I looked at the other fairy. She looked at me and her
eyes glowed, but not like mine.  Hers were like little stars. The barrier
shook, but nothing more.

"I can't. Something is getting in my way." The second I looked at her one
of MJ's punches found my arm and I screamed as searing pain that was almost
unbearable shot through my whole being. In reaction I threw a hook to his
jaw and hit him.

"Hahahaha that's better. You wanted it hard..." He shouted before he
whispered, "Just the same as you like your cock!"

"What!?!?"

"You heard. I know about you being a fag. I've noticed the way you look at
guys, especially Jonathan." He said before he kicked me in my stomach. Then
he threw another to my chest sending me flying backwards to the floor,
crashing against the barrier. "You angry yet? Come on, show that anger,
show me that rage inside. Dig deep damn you, I know you have it in you just
simmering below the surface. NO...it's not rage, it's wrath! I felt it in
you the moment you looked at my group in the welcome banquet."

He was shouting now, but no sound seemed to escape the barrier. I couldn't
even hear them. "Show me! Show all of them. Look at them, they're
clueless." Then he threw a fireball in my direction. His pointy ears were
smoking and his eyes were like two small suns, flaming with fury. He had
wings and they looked like burning firefly's wings. He was awesome. He was
gorgeous. NO, not in the sexual way, as in perfect.  He was a beast, a
killing machine waiting to be unleashed. He had fangs and everything. This
is so not how I thought fairies looked like. For a moment in his face there
was a glimpse of...pain.

"You're just going to give up! You are a coward. Maybe your father was just
like you. He let your mother die. No, you were responsible. Maybe your ..."
He couldn't finish because I punched him again. This time in the nose and
it started bleeding instantly. "HAHAHAHA... that's way better! This is not
what I am looking for, this is what you are. A crippled faggot with no
magic. Who's a bastard because his parents are dead." Then he kicked me
again, but this time I stood firm.

~Do it, show him~ Said a voice in my head that I recognized as my own. Only
angrier, stronger. It was a very different version of me.

 ~ DO IT!!!~ The voice shouted, I screamed. I put my hands against MJ's
neck and began to strangle him. Then I lift him from the ground.

"You wanted to see it. Careful what you wish for." Saying this some kind of
energy took me over. I don't know where it come from, but it felt
natural. It felt good.  Then I screamed and released the energy.

MJ blinked like he was an image on a video. I felt the barrier brake in a
million pieces along with all the glass in the windows and doors in the
gymnasium. I dropped MJ to the ground and he fell limp. I knew he was
alive; I could see him breath. I looked all around the room and all the
other fairies were on the ground. It was just like a bomb had exploded or
something, but it had only affected them.

I felt dizzy, tired all of a sudden. My heart beat was the only thing I
could hear along an annoying ringing. I fell to my knees and then...it all
went black.


I was in a beautiful place, it looked like a clearing in the woods. The
birds were chirping and it was cool, but at the same time sunny. There were
flowers all over the ground and I was laying on them. I saw dragons in the
sky and stood up. There quite near to me was a beautiful Unicorn. I walked
through the forest and found a river. In the river were five mermaids and
mermen sitting on a rock. I kept walking and found a very beautiful
beast. It was a griffin. The most beautiful, intelligent and honorable
lower creature of them all.

Then I heard a laugh. It was man it sounded stunning. I kept walking, but
more quietly this time. I looked at my prosthetic leg and it wasn't
there. There was a full flesh over muscle and bones leg. A real one. I was
barefoot. I moved my toes and a tear rolled down my cheek. I
was... happy. I loved this place.

I kept walking until I found another clearing. This time I stayed behind a
tree. You see, there was a pond and seated beside it were three people. Two
of them were male and one was a woman. One of the guys was resting against
the other one's chest. He laughed and the other man that looked...oddly
familiar. Very familiar as I called him kissed the others neck. The
laughing guy turned his head and looked at his eyes.  This man looked like
me. We were almost identical.

"I love you Fer...I love you." This guy that looked like me said.

"I love you too my angel." Answered the other man. Then they kissed a very
passionate and hot kiss that was interrupted by the woman when she, using
her mind, sent a shot of water all over them.

"Hey lovebirds, I am still here." She smiled

The guys shouted together, "Mor!!!" Everyone began to laugh, but something
interrupted them, it was an angel.

"My lord, they have found you. They are on their way." The angel said to
the other me.

"Thank you Azalalel. Now go and notify the army that maybe war is on its
way. There are dark times ahead of us." He said

"Yes my lord, but please come with me. Let's go to the crystal city." said
Azalalel

"No, there is no running now. I foresaw this day a long time ago. GO..." He
said and the angel rose into the sky, disappearing shortly after. "Morei,
you have to disappear they are not looking for you."

"I am not going to go..." The woman said. Morei was a goddess, the water
goddess. "...and I am sure Ferim is going to stay." she added. I looked at
the other guy. That was why he looked so familiar. He was exactly like the
statue, but without the marks and the four arms I didn't recognize him.

"You know it. You are my love, and besides...you're my brother. I would die
for you."  He looked at the other me, "Eremir, look at me. Promise me you
are not going to do anything reckless."

"Sorry." Eremir said. Eremir was the tenth God. He was one of the most
important Gods. Yet there were no drawings, no statues or anything
dedicated to him or about him. He is the only God that didn't had an
image. Suddenly a sonic boom drew everyone's attention and a body crashed
down in front of them. It was a lady, she looked intelligent and
wise. "Sairei. What are you doing here?"

"Do you think for one moment that I was not going to defend my favourite
brother? I don't know why Iromir warned me; why the dark lord himself
warned me. We need to defend you. Samokir is already at the mountains
gathering his great army."

Morei went to the pond and put her hand in and a wave was created the
moment she touched the water. "My mermaids are warned. They will protect
the oceans. The human world will be safe. Sorry that is all I can do. My
people can't go out of the waters."

"Do not worry, that is better than nothing. We don't have to worry about
the lower races, but send a team to the trench." Said Eremir.

"I already have. The portal to the river is going to be safe." Answered
Morei.

"The genies are lifting a barrier. The most important thing now is to know
that God is on our side." Said Ferim.

"There are no sides! Now, everyone is going to have to look out for
themselves.  That's why we need to hold still and resist. Lorei can help
us, but she can't fight."  Sairei said and suddenly a clap of thunder
sounded all over the place.

"Sorry." Eremir said again.

"Why do you say that?" Asked Ferim. "NO! Eremir, please don't." Then Eremir
jumped and disappeared into the air. As he did so I got dizzy and a very
sweet smell filled my nostrils. It smelled like caramel and then...

I fell through what looked like the rabbit's hole from Alice in
wonderland. It was filled with so many things. Things that I mostly
recognized. I saw my piano, dad's canoe and many other things. Then when I
reached the end I stop falling, like there was suddenly no gravity. I then
dropped onto the hard, cold floor. I was in what seemed like a tunnel. It
didn't matter where I walked, there was no exit. So I sat on the floor in
total frustration.

"Stand up. An Afanasiev never gives up!" A familiar voice said. A hand was
appeared in front of me. I took it and stood looking at a smiling face. A
face that I thought lost so long ago.

"Hello father."

"Hello Son, no hug for me?" He hugged me. He still smelt just like the last
time I saw him, lavender and sea.

"Am I dead papa?" I asked almost crying.

"No my Kotenok." Kotenok means little cat in Russian. It was the nickname
my family gave me when I was young. They said when I was little I acted
like a cat wanting everybody to pet me, but often became very fierce and
angry. They said, when they used to pet me I made this weird sound.

"So where am I?"

"You are in-between. In limbo."

"Then that means you're not dead?"

"No son. I am dead. I have been like this for a long time now." Then he
held my face in his hands and kissed my forehead.

Suddenly we were in a very cosy room. It was a mix between a library and a
cabin living room. A fire was in the fireplace and it lit the room. "You
can build whatever you like in this place. Now take a seat and let's talk."
He said and on the coffee table appeared two of my father's special white
chocolate mochas with cinnamon. The secret was in using powdered cinnamon
and a stick of it. I took a sip and it was like the nectar of the god's.

I told him how hard life had been without him and mother. How I missed them
every day. I then told him about me being gay. I told him that I hated
myself for a very long time, that all I wanted was to change. Maybe that's
why they died. It was my fault. I was crying uncontrollably. He reached for
my chin and made me look at him.

He had a smile on his face and his eyes were watery. "Oh my baby boy...I
would love you for all eternity. I don't care if you're gay. To be honest,
your mother and I knew since you were very little and it is not your fault
what happened with us.  Someday you will find out the truth. I will always
protect you sweetheart. Your mother couldn't come today, but sooner than
you can imagine she will visit you. I love you my Kotenok." Then everything
went black.


I opened my eyes. I was in a hospital bed. There was this woman with a
censer on her hand, the smoke had a caramel smell. "Finally! This is my
fourth batch of incense young man. Hello, my name is Maria Stephanopoulos,
I'm the school's doctor. You have been in coma for 7 years." She said so
seriously.

"What?" I screamed trying to scramble up out of bed in shock. Then she
burst out laughing, and my sisters entered the room also laughing.

"Relax. You have only been out of it for a night." The doctor said between
laughs and checking my vitals were fine. I eventually laughed too.

"Told you Maria that it was going to be awesome." Laughed Amelie.

"Ame. I can't believe you would do that. You nearly had me believing it!"
I laughed.

"Sorry my little Kotenok, but I couldn't resist it." Ame said pushed her
blonde and multi-colored hair behind her ear. I then remembered everything.

"How's MJ?" I asked as the doctor disconnected the IV from my left arm.

"Who?" Asked the doctor finishing and putting a bandage were the IV had
been before.

"The other guy."

"Oh, Merekeen. He hadn't woken up. I think you need to wake him up. He's in
the next room. You were just tired and a your arms burned. You can go
whenever you want."  said the doctor. I looked at my arms and they were
like new, no burn marks, "Pretty awesome isn't it?" Then she said goodbye
and left. I dressed and put on my prosthetic leg. I told my sisters I
wanted to be alone and they went back to classes.

Once I was alone I went to MJ's room. He was laying on his bed. He had an
IV in his arm and a monitor that was signalling his heartbeat and vitals. I
had spent a lot of my life in hospitals. That beeping machine is just for
drama in the movies, real ones do not beep. I walked towards him and I saw
that a machine was reading his brainwaves.

Okay, let's be honest. MJ was sexy. He is total jerk, an asshole and a son
of a bitch, but a very sexy one. He had this bad boy look about him. He was
muscular and fit. He was shirtless and I could see tattoos all over his
arms, shoulders and pecs.  All of his muscles were very defined and he was
so good looking. He had short black hair with a pair of hazel eyes, besides
his pointy ears which were very funny and cute.

Why did this guy hate me so much? I didn't hate him. I couldn't, something
in him makes me want to like him. I felt that he was hiding something. I
touched his face and a wave of energy moved from my hand to him that made
him shimmer like an image on water. Then I couldn't resist, I slapped his
asshole of a face so hard that he woke up and jumped from the bed
disconnecting all the wires.

"Why? What was that for?" He shouted holding his face and letting out a
shriek.

"You deserved it asshole! Plus, that is the fastest way I've found to wake
you up."  I answered as the door burst open and Doctor Stephanopoulos came
running with a male nurse in tow.

"Oh, you woke up." She said letting out a sigh of relief. "Next time, call
for us to disconnect you. You scared us." She added, signalling MJ to take
a seat. When he did, she expertly changed his IV for a new one and injected
somethings into it.

"What's that?" MJ asked.

"Just some Vitamins and things like that..." She answered, "...when this IV
is over you're free to go. OH, drink this." She handed him a little
bottle. "This is sandbox plant extract."

"It tastes awful." MJ protested. The doctor opened the little bottle and
shoved it into MJ's mouth.

"Opa!!!" She said. Oh, I liked her as she was a little unorthodox. She was
this typical 50-year-old Greek woman. I laughed. "Okay, there you go. Now I
am going to go." She added, before she left and the nurse followed her
shortly after.

"Why did you try to kill me?" I asked.

"Well you surely don't beat around the bush..." He said looking at me,
"...I didn't...  I didn't try to kill you I mean."

"Yeah. I believe you because?" I said.

"Because it's the truth. Fairies can't lie. You asked me to go hard on you
and I did." He said looking at me.

"You're an asshole you know that." I told him before I started walking to
the door.

"Wait..." He said when I was at the door, "Forgive me, please. For what's
worth, no one heard what we were talking about. So no one knows that you're
gay." He added.

I was going to go but I turned and said to him, "You may not be lying, but
you are hiding something. I don't know why and I don't know what, but I can
tell you something...I will find out. I will not forgive you, but I will
let it go. Eventually I will forgive you. Maybe one day even forget, but
now I just want to beat the living shit out of you." I said and then I left
slamming the door. I looked at my watch and it was almost lunchtime so I
figured that maybe I would find my friends on the dining hall.

The dining hall was a big room on the first floor. It wasn't the banqueting
hall from the welcome ceremony, it was a smaller one. It looked like some
kind of all you can eat buffet was being served. To say I was hungry was an
understatement. I was starving! I could have eaten a fucking horse. So I
got a tray and filled two plates with big mountains of food. Then grabbed a
Coke Zero, never got the healthy part actually it is a little dangerous. I
just liked the flavour. I found all my friends on a table by the
windows. It was raining outside.

"You can all stop crying. You can burn your eulogies. Destroy the graves
and lock up your daughters. The prodigal son's alive." Said Theo in the
most dramatic voice the moment he saw me, faking a southern accent for some
reason. Everybody faked surprise and acted as if I was some kind of
celebrity. We all had a good laugh. I took seat between the my usuals, Syre
and Alexander. I was surprised to see John and Syre sat at the same
table. Sarah was here too.

"Syre, since when are you and Jonathan such good friends?" I asked.

"We're not. I am on probation." John responded.

"Yesterday he was concerned about you and I decided to give him the benefit
of the doubt." Syre said.

"You were concerned about me?" I squeaked, a little surprised. The truth is
that I sounded like an idiot looking at him. To save the moment I sorted
myself and said again, "You all were concerned about me?"

"Yeah. Why wouldn't we? We're friends." Alex said.

All my life I had a little group of friends. Most of the times it was only
Oscar and Gert (Gertrude, another example of bad parents who call their
daughter something like that). Now I was happier. I knew magic existed. I
could do magic. I had friends.  Maybe one day soon, I would find a
boyfriend as in this school almost every guy was hot.

Yes, maybe there was still a lot of things to be answered. Who was I? What
did it mean that I was royalty? I would find out the answers, but
now...Now, I wanted to enjoy the moment. I had new friends and that was
always a cause for celebration.
