Chapter 18 Feeling Of Danger

George quickly took a fighting stance as he saw Tammy walk into the space where he was standing, the fight was just to taste their combat skills so weapons weren't allowed but Tammy didn't seem to care as she walked towards George, keeping her composure as calm as possible.

'Why's she walking so close to me, she's supposed to stand opposite' George complained in his mind.

Tammy continued walking to him until she was looking directly into his eyes.

"Your stance is poor." She said and then began to make his way back to where she was supposed to stand.

"Nice try, you think you can disorganize me mentally." George chuckled.

"I didn't even try," Tammy said as she got ready for the fight stepping one foot in front.

"Fight." Kel declared.

The fight had started but Tammy was still standing in the same position, George was cautious and didn't want to just charge in as he did against Clerk, but he was soon getting impatient seeing Tammy still standing in one place doing nothing, charging in was risky but he still had one something up his sleeve.

Pulling both his hands together, earth from two pots at the corner of the room started to come towards him, they twisted and turned with his hand movements until they had become what he wanted, several small blades which were made of earth and now they were heading for Tammy but she still didn't move.

"Is she going to just stand there?"

"I know she's strong, but did you see what George did to Clerk with those things"

"Don't worry, I know Tammy and she's not going to just stand there" Pearl assured the two girls who were feeling worried for her friend.

If one were to look at the fight, they would immediately think that Tammy had no chance of dodging all the several blades heading, maybe she can't, but she doesn't need to.

Immediately the blades were at close range on her, she stopped the foot she had on the floor on the ground, which immediately knocked George off balance, and with his hand, he pushed the blades away from Tammy while trying to regain his balance, all the blades missed heading for the wall behind her, except for one which she was able to block with the metal bracelet on her wrist.

"Now let's see if you have improved"

Tammy charged in with both of her hands ready to throw punches, but her first punch was dodged by ducking, but George was in for a surprise, Tammy knew he would dodge and quickly stomped her feet on the ground which disoriented his balance and made it difficult for him to get up and that was when he received the deadly kick on his jaw.

He could feel the liquid building up in his mouth together with the taste of iron, and that made him bite his lips preventing the blood from pouring out, but the sooner he got up he received another blow on his stomach which sent him falling a few steps backward.

Everyone thought he was okay until he went on his knees and started to cough out blood and Tammy was still moving closer, Kel had to step in between them and stop the match to Stop Tammy from hurting him even more.

"Pathetic as before," Tammy said before walking back to where Pearl was standing.

"Nice one girl," Pearl said punching her on the shoulder.

"Just a kick and a punch." She shrugged.

The two girls that were standing beside Pearl, while watching Tammy fight were awestruck, they had gotten the impression that George was one of the strongest in the class, but seeing him beaten like that without even getting hit in.

'Just who is this girl.'

"He didn't even touch you"

"He never does," Tammy said all this time keeping a straight face, she didn't even show any form of excitement for beating George, it was as if she did this every day.

Meanwhile, in the power testing room, everything was going well for Jim and his students who were getting good percentages for growth until Luis had gone into the machine.

"I knew something would go wrong." Luis stared at the number on the screen in disbelief, everyone had left the room but he was still there looking at the screen waiting for a possible explanation.'Maybe the damn machine is broken.'

When Luis had gotten the score, Jim stared at it in disbelief, it was a first for him, since all his years as a teacher, the lowest percentage he had seen was thirty, but he had never seen someone get zero, but when he saw the score which was meant to be Luis' score, he only had one thought in his mind.

'Why do I always get new burdens every year?'

He explained to Luis what his score meant and that he might end up being a level one until all the people he started with leave the school and start making a living, simply put he had no way of growing.

While explaining these things to Luis, Jim tried to keep his temper in check, so that he wouldn't have to scream at Luis, telling him that there was no use for people like him here but he was glad he was able to stop himself from doing that and afterward he left with his students, none of them would even want to get close to Luis after seeing that he was probably going to remain a nobody for the rest of his life.

"Why does everyone think so low of me, even a stupid machine" Luis said, he was now kneeling in front of the machine.

"Not everyone, thinks low of you." he heard a voice behind him, he turned to see Ella who was now covering her mouth like she shouldn't have said that.

"Are you here to mock me?" Luis said turning back to the machine."Now how am I going to catch up to Tammy?" he muttered.

"Hey, I thought we were friends?" Ella asked a little bit hurt by his first words.

"Friends." Luis chuckled."Why would you want to be my friend?"

"I don't want to." She said."Because we are friends already"

"Yeah right, what's your percentage?"

"Sixty-five" Ella blurted out, but quickly covered her mouth, she's become fond of doing that when she says things she's not supposed to.

"See I know you are sad," Ella said after sitting beside Luis.

"I'm not sad." Luis turned his gaze to her for a moment and then turned it back to the machine."Just disappointed." There was a weight in his voice as he spoke.

"But you know that's a machine it's not always accurate."

"I know you are saying that to just cheer me up."

"No, I mean it."

Ella quickly got up and entered the machine to start the process to prove her point, and she was right because when she came out the number written on the machine was now sixty instead of sixty-five.

"Doesn't that mean I will just get minus five?" Luis said.

Ella's plan had only done the opposite of what she wanted it to do.

"Fine, but you won't feel any better, sitting there looking at that machine all day."

"I wasn't planning to," Luis said slowly getting up and walking out the door.

As the both of them walked to their class, Ella tried to bring up important topics to talk about with Luis, but he just nodded to whatever she said and continued walking until a message appeared on his screen.

[ ?????????? detected ]

This was a very similar message to the one he had received this morning when a particular man had approached him, he turned his gaze to his right to see the man walk past them but not without making eye contact with him.

"Who's that person?"

"He's that vice principal, a really good man" Ella replied, glad that Luis had at least said something to her even if it was a question.

"Nice?"

"Yeah. Is anything wrong?" Ella asked seeing the change in Luis' expression as if he was looking out for something.

"I get a feeling of danger around him"

"Danger?"

Luis ignored her question and turned to look at the so-called vice principal and then he received another message.

[ New skill unlocked ]

[ Aura vision ]

"Who is this boy?" Raph said as he opened the door to his office.
