Chapter 5 - Thief

"Who are you?" I aggressively asked.

The sound of crickets did not scare me but his presence give me such bizarre feelings. He laughed that made me recognize his sexuality. He's quite potent, causing my instinct to subsist.

I glanced at the object he was holding. It's the precious wand of the academy. He noticed maybe I was looking there.

My eyes went wide when it disappeared. Yes! The wand in his palm disappeared.

"Are you the one that the academy sent here to stop me down?" he unbelievably asked.

He is in his mid-30, and I can feel the energy from him. He is strong because of his honing ability. As I said before, there is something strange about his personality that gives me a warning.

Where did he put the wand?

"Yes! I am! So, give me back the wand if you don't want to get hurt!"

Although, I was skeptical I did the right thing because I know this is the right thing to do. And that is to get back the wand that the academy is keeping most before they use it for evil purposes.

He laughed unbelievably.

"You make me laugh! You know just leave me alone and forget that we met here. That you tried to block someone like me, now, if possible, I will leave," he said and mocked while underestimating me. I gripped and gritted.

I felt angry at the words he uttered causing me to raise my right foot and trample it violently on the ground. I felt my power radiated out in rage. The purple and violet mist hovered around my body as my eyes went glowing.

There was a sudden quake occurred. There was a crack that drew towards where he was standing. He looked at my behavior and jumped off the ground and moved.

"It can't be!" he unbelievably vented.

I smiled while feeling the fear and nervousness inside him. His body started to tremble, he could not look at me directly because he was preceded by his nervousness. I approached where he was, I did not feel myself stepping. Unbelievable, but, yes, I fly half a meter from the ground. I have only done this just now in my whole life.

"The wand," I held out my hand to him.

He can't look at me because he was murmuring. He's mumbling something that made me smirk.

"It's not true, you're just pretending," he exclaimed.

I smiled again.

"Give me the wand," I said again but he remained unconscious. Are they really like that when they find someone like me? Is it really make them crazy?

"You must be burned in the blazing fire and never live in this world again!" I was bored with what he said.

"What are you talking about?" I asked curiously.

"Someone like you is a threat to society, people like you are a plague! You have to disappear from the world!" he shouted in front of my face and disappeared.

I just felt him suddenly behind me, he was two meters away from me. The grin on my lips disappeared again when I saw the wand in his hand. He summoned it again, to use it for me which I find interesting.

Will he use that thing on me? Is he testing my ability? Be my guest, weirdo.

"Are you going to use that staff to me, aren't you?" I asked out of the blue.

He just smirked, instead of answering my sarcastic question. The wand glow, its light is golden which gave me fascination.

"This night will mark your death and it will take several thousand more years for the person appointed to change your position to be born again! Ha-ha!" he devilishly laughed while whirling the wand and casting a spell. I do not understand because he was mumbling, I can only see the opening of his mouth.

I let him cast his spell, whatever that is.

"Be gone!" he smirked and pointed out the wand in my direction.

It created a gold lightning thread. The lightning bolt first flowed into the metal wand before it formed a straight line towards me. Even before it touched me I made a barrier to avoid any spell he made.

"Be gone, witch!" he exclaimed.

He got even angrier because he didn't hit me. I made a barrier again when he strikes into my direction.

"You're just torturing yourself, mister," I spoke as I was already blown by his attack.

I also feel that he is tired and I have no intention of hurting him, unless he forces me to fight.

When he stepped on the ground I put my palm on him, I smiled when I saw he could not move where he was standing. The wand fell on the ground.

"Aaaacck !!" he gasped.

I put my left palm on the wand. It flew towards me.

"You should've given it to me earlier, you shouldn't be hurt anymore, but of course, I have no other choice," I whispered, his body approaching where I was as I wished.

"Sorry for doing this," I added.

I put my hand on his head, he struggled but then calmed down when we're done. When I'm done with my job.

I have gotten the wand plus I captured the thief. I snapped my fingers and appeared in front of the Headmaster's office.

Everyone rushed on our platform, they went obstreperous like a bug. I also saw the shocked faces of the five Alphas including the stunning Headmaster Argus.

"Oh my gosh! Did she do that?"

"She captured that thief alone?"

"Unbelievable!"

They even managed to underestimate my ability? I was the one who helped. Tss!

Headmaster Argus approached me and thanked me wholeheartedly.

"I am sincerely grateful for the courage you have shown. If it weren't for you the future of the academy might be at risk. Thank you very much, and now, my business will be a sort of hectic regarding this man," he said while placing chains and handcuffs on the man.

He's unconscious, right? Guess who made him like that? That's none other than me. Before I left, I saw Caleb smiled at me. I felt a warmth on my cheek. What a cute guy.

Then, the mood got destructed when Myrtle came and hugged me behind tightly.

"Two down on the first day of school!" she said cheerfully.

The commotion subsided. We left the premises and went inside our dormitory. But before that, I first glanced at the academy and remembered the man who took the school wand.

He knew something about me.

I should try talking to him next time, I guess.
